[0034] In order to make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects achieved by the present invention easier to understand, the present invention is further described below in conjunction with specific implementation methods.

[0035] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown, a positioning assembly for a thoracentesis needle comprises:

[0036] An annular base 1 is provided with a central hole 2 for the puncture needle to pass through, and the annular base 1 is positioned on the skin around the puncture point by medical double-sided tape 3;

[0037] A needle clamp 4 is provided on the annular base 1 and is used to clamp and position the puncture needle passing through the central hole 2;

[0038] A resetter 5 is provided on the annular base 1 and connected to the needle clamp 4. The resetter 5 is used to restore the needle clamp 4 to its initial state where the puncture needle is not clamped.

[0039] The needle clamp 4 includes a clamping plate 401, a base 402 and a spring 403. A pair of clamping plates 401 are slidably arranged on the annular base 1 through corresponding bases 402, and the central hole 2 is located between the pair of clamping plates 401.

[0040] The spring 403 connects the base 402 and the clamping plates 401 to drive the pair of clamping plates 401 to clamp the puncture needle passing through the central hole 2;

[0041] The reducer 5 is connected to the pair of clamping plates 401 and is used to drive the pair of clamping plates 401 away from each other.

[0042] Before puncturing, medical double-sided tape is applied to the bottom of the annular base 1, and then the center hole 2 of the annular base 1 is aligned with the puncture point, and the annular base 1 is affixed to the patient's skin. After the annular base 1 is affixed and positioned, the resetter 5 is operated to move the pair of splints 401 away from each other, fully exposing the center hole 2. The puncture needle is then operated to pass through the center hole 2 and insert the puncture needle into the patient's body from the puncture point. When the puncture needle is in place, the resetter 5 releases the pair of splints 401, which are driven by the springs 403 on both sides to clamp the puncture needle, thereby achieving the positioning of the puncture needle.

[0043] The utility model marks the puncture point by adhering an annular base 1 with a central hole 2 to the skin around the puncture point, and a splint 401 is provided on both sides of the annular base 1 through a base 402 for sliding. The splint 401 and the base 402 are connected by a spring 403. The resetter 5 on the annular base 1 can make the splints 401 on both sides move away from each other to facilitate the puncture and withdrawal of the puncture needle. The splints 401 on both sides clamp and position the puncture needle under the push of the spring 403, thereby solving the problem of safety hazards and occupation of human resources in manual clamping of the puncture needle.

[0044] Among them, a pair of splints 401 are slidably arranged on both sides of the annular base 1 through two bases 402 respectively. A guide groove 6 is provided on the side of the base 402 close to the center hole 2. A cover plate 7 is provided on the top of the base 402. The splint 401 is slidably plugged into the guide groove 6, and the spring 403 is arranged in the guide groove 6.

[0045] The base 402 with the guide groove 6 is "U"-shaped and is integrally formed on the annular base 1. The splint 401, the groove wall of the guide groove 6, the top of the annular base 1 and the bottom of the cover plate 7 are slidably sealed. The setting of the cover plate 7 facilitates the disassembly and assembly of the spring 403 and realizes the hiding of the spring 403 to avoid the unsightly appearance and easy accumulation of dirt caused by the exposure of the spring 403.

[0046] In addition, the groove wall of the guide groove 6 and one side of the clamping plate 401 are both provided with a limiting hole 8 for the spring 403 to be inserted, so as to prevent the spring 403 from shifting and causing the clamping plate 401 to slide unevenly.

[0047] In addition, an arcuate groove is provided on one side of the splint 401 near the central hole 2, and a non-slip rubber pad 9 is provided on the wall of the arcuate groove. That is, the splint 401 clamps the puncture needle through the non-slip rubber pad 9, which is an elastic pad made of rubber or silicone. When clamping the puncture needle, the elastic non-slip rubber pad 9 can fit the circular contour of the puncture needle, increasing the contact area with the puncture needle, thereby increasing the friction between the puncture needle and the splint 401. The design of the arcuate groove further facilitates the non-slip rubber pad 9 to fit the contour of the puncture needle, thereby facilitating the stable clamping of the puncture needle by the splint 401. At the same time, it avoids the problem of the puncture needle being damaged by the rigid splint 401 directly clamping the puncture needle, which may cause the internal channel of the puncture needle to narrow or even become blocked due to deformation.

[0048] In order to facilitate the disassembly and assembly of the anti-slip rubber pad 9, a slot 10 is provided on the wall of the arc groove, and the back of the anti-slip rubber pad 9 has an arc-shaped convex strip 11 that is plugged into the slot 10, that is, the anti-slip rubber pad 9 is inserted into the slot 10 through the arc-shaped convex strip 11 and installed in the arc groove of the clip.

[0049] The resetter 5 includes a connecting rod 501, a guide rod 502, and a hinged joint 503. The connecting rods 501 are hinged at both ends of the clamping plates 401. The two connecting rods 501 at the same end of a pair of clamping plates 401 are hinged via a hinged joint 503. One end of the guide rod 502 is connected to the hinged joint 503. A bracket 12 is provided on the annular base 1. The bracket 12 has a guide hole 13 defined therein, into which the guide rod 502 is slidably inserted.

[0050] Before puncturing, two fingers are used to pinch the two guide rods 502 together, causing the two connecting rods 501 to push the two clamping plates 401 away from each other. Then, the other hand operates the puncture needle to perform the puncture. When the puncture needle reaches the designated position, the two guide rods 502 are released, causing the two clamping plates 401 to move closer together under the push of the spring 403 until the puncture needle is clamped.

[0051] Furthermore, when the two connecting rods 501 are aligned, they will not rotate under the thrust of the spring 403, thereby maintaining the position of the clamping plate 401 and freeing one hand to operate the guide rod 502. To facilitate moving the two guide rods 502 away from each other after puncture is completed, an operating handle 14 is provided at one end of the guide rod 502 away from the hinged joint 503, with the end of the operating handle 14 extending upward from the annular base 1.

[0052] After the puncture needle is inserted into the patient's body and reaches the designated position, two fingers respectively move the two operating handles 14 away from each other from the inner side of the two operating handles 14 to break the stable state of the two connecting rods 501 at the same end being collinear, so that the two side splints 401 can approach each other under the action of the thrust of the spring 403 until the puncture needle is clamped.

[0053] Among them, the medical double-sided tape 3 is in the shape of a ring with a circular hole 15 in the center. The circular hole 15 is coaxial with the center hole 2, and the aperture of the circular hole 15 is not smaller than the aperture of the center hole 2. The ring-shaped medical double-sided tape 3 can maximize the adhesive area, thereby facilitating the stable adhesion of the annular base 1 to the skin around the puncture point.

[0054] It should be noted that the entire needle tip protection structure is preferably made of aluminum alloy or stainless steel to extend its service life and facilitate disinfection after use.

[0055] It is understood from common technical knowledge that the present invention may be implemented through other embodiments that do not depart from its spirit or essential features. Therefore, the embodiments disclosed above are, in all respects, merely illustrative and not exclusive. All modifications within the scope of the present invention or equivalent to the scope of the present invention are intended to be encompassed by the present invention.
