Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of radio frequency needles, in particular to a multifunctional radio frequency needle. Background Art

[0002] Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) technology primarily relies on a radiofrequency device with both ablation and cutting capabilities. Its therapeutic mechanism is primarily thermal. When RF current flows through human tissue, the rapid changes in the electromagnetic field cause polarized water molecules within the tissue to move at high speeds, generating heat (i.e., endogenous heating). This causes water inside and outside the cells to evaporate, dry out, shrink, and detach, leading to aseptic necrosis, thus achieving the therapeutic goal. The RF needle is an indispensable tool in RF ablation.

[0003] In the prior art, a Chinese patent with the announcement number CN26576951U discloses a radiofrequency needle, which adopts a scheme of "including a needle body, an inner electrode needle embedded in the hollow part of the needle body that can perform tissue ablation, nerve stimulation, electrification, and positioning, a detachable connection between the inner needle and the needle body, the outer surface of one end of the needle body is sprayed or plated with an insulating layer that prevents current from flowing to the surrounding tissue, and a conductive area is provided on the other end of the needle body to pierce the tissue, and the shape of the conductive area is bent or straight or rounded blunt head". This scheme has extremely small radio frequency resistance, reduces surgical trauma, alleviates patient pain, shortens treatment time, and has no allergic reaction to the human body, no pain, and no leakage. It uses a method that can treat the curved part of the lesion, so that there is no blind spot in the treatment, and solves the problem that the straight needle cannot reach the obstructed radiofrequency site in the blind spot of needle insertion. The inner needle has an ultrasonic positioning function, which can accurately and multi-angle locate the lesion and enhance the imaging effect of the ultrasonic image during treatment. It has a novel design and is a good innovative solution with great market promotion prospects.

[0004] However, the above solution still has some shortcomings. For example, during actual use, the surface of the radio frequency needle lacks corresponding scales, which makes it impossible for personnel to accurately control the depth of radio frequency needle puncture. At the same time, the needle tube material of the radio frequency needles currently on the market is ordinary medical stainless steel, which leads to its low hardness during actual use. The needle tube is prone to bending and deformation during transportation or use, and affects the feel of personnel during puncture and normal puncture.

[0005] In view of this, the utility model proposes a multifunctional radio frequency needle. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of the present utility model is to provide a multifunctional radiofrequency needle to solve the problems raised in the above background technology.

[0010] Preferably, a plurality of spherical rotation grooves are circumferentially arrayed on the outer ring surface of the insertion cylinder, and a limiting metal ball is rotatably provided on the inner wall of the spherical rotation groove.

[0011] Furthermore, an annular groove is provided on the inner ring surface of the mounting cylinder, and a plurality of limiting metal balls are all in rolling connection with the inner wall of the annular groove.

[0012] Preferably, a driving gear is fixedly provided at the output end of the small motor, and an annular external gear ring meshing with the driving gear is fixedly provided on the outer ring surface of the connection ring.

[0013] Preferably, an installation groove is provided on the front surface of the mounting cylinder, and a button switch for controlling the small motor is provided on the inner wall of the installation groove.

[0014] Preferably, a conductor electrically connected to the needle base is provided on the inner bottom wall of the insertion cylinder, and an electric slip ring electrically connected to the conductor is embedded on the inner wall of the mounting cylinder.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows:

[0016] 1. By providing a scale line on the needle tube and using titanium metal as the material for preparing the needle tube, on the one hand, during the actual use of this radiofrequency needle, personnel can accurately control the length of the radiofrequency of the needle tube entering the patient's body according to the scale line observed on the surface of the needle tube. On the other hand, compared with stainless steel, the hardness of titanium metal is twice that of stainless steel, thereby effectively improving the overall hardness and strength of the needle tube, making it not easy to deform and bend, and effectively improving the feel of personnel during radiofrequency, with relatively strong practicability.

[0017] 2. The utility model enables the radiofrequency needle to start a small motor through a button switch during the actual radiofrequency process by setting a connection component. The rotation of the small motor drives the rotation of the driving gear. The rotation of the driving gear drives the connection ring and the insertion cylinder to rotate under the action of the annular external tooth ring, thereby driving the rotation of the radiofrequency needle body. Furthermore, during the radiofrequency process, the radiofrequency needle can realize the function of self-rotation, increasing the action area of radiofrequency and the treatment area.

[0030] Embodiment Two

[0031] On the basis of Embodiment One, referring to Figures 3-4 , and different from Embodiment One is that

[0032] A multi-functional radiofrequency needle further includes:

[0033] A connection component 2, which is used to connect the radiofrequency needle body 1 with the radiofrequency operation handle on the radiofrequency therapeutic instrument. The connection component 2 includes an installation cylinder 21 arranged on the outer surface of the needle base 11 and fixedly connected to the radiofrequency operation handle.
