Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of medical equipment, in particular to a pipe cutting machine. Background Art

[0002] Over-the-cannula catheters typically include a catheter assembly and a core needle. Regulations require that when the core needle is fully inserted into the catheter assembly, the end of the catheter should neither extend beyond the base of the needle tip bevel nor extend more than 1mm away from it. Therefore, over-the-cannula catheters typically require precise cutting before assembly.

[0003] Currently, catheters are typically cut using a steel ruler to measure length and then cut with scissors or a blade. However, this method typically only allows for a length accuracy of ±2 mm, failing to meet product performance requirements. This results in the need for two or even multiple cuts to obtain the required length, resulting in low cutting efficiency. Furthermore, the resulting cuts are uneven, severely impacting product quality. Utility Model Content

[0025] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by those skilled in the art to which this invention pertains. The terms used herein in the specification of this invention are intended only to describe specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the invention. The term "and / or" as used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

[0026] See also Figures 1 to 3 , shown is a pipe cutting machine of the present invention, comprising a base plate 10, a stop assembly 20 provided on the base plate 10, a sliding assembly 30, and a cutter assembly 40 detachably connected to the sliding assembly 30, wherein a guide groove 101 is provided on the base plate 10, and the guide groove 101 is arranged along the width direction of the base plate 10, and the total length of the guide groove 101 is less than the width of the base plate 10. Furthermore, in this embodiment, the corners of the base plate 10 are rounded structures.

[0027] As an example, the stop assembly 20 is used to position the catheter 60 and set the required cutting length of the catheter 60. Specifically, the stop assembly 20 includes a fixing bar 21 and a stop block 22 arranged on one side of the fixing bar 21, wherein the fixing bar 21 is arranged along the length direction of the base plate 10, and the two ends of the fixing bar 21 in the length direction are respectively fastened to the base plate 10 by a fastener 50. In this embodiment, the fastener 50 can be a connecting bolt. A placement groove 201 is provided on the end of the fixing bar 21 away from the stop block 22, and the placement groove 201 is used to accommodate the cutter 42. The placement groove 201 is located directly above one end of the guide groove 101, and the notch of the placement groove 201 is set toward the other end of the guide groove 101, and the placement groove 201 is connected to the guide groove 101. As a specific example, in this embodiment, the placement groove 201 is a U-shaped groove, and the notch of the U-shaped groove is set toward the end of the guide groove 101 away from the fixing bar 21, and the notch width of the U-shaped groove is consistent with the notch width of the guide groove 101.

[0028] Furthermore, the side of the fixing strip 21 near the guide groove 101 is tightly fitted with the side of the stop block 22, and the stop surface of the stop block 22 is perpendicular to the side of the fixing strip 21 near the guide groove 101 and the surface of the base plate 10, respectively. This allows the side of the fixing strip 21 near the guide groove 101, the stop surface of the stop block 22, and the surface of the base plate 10 to collectively form a limited space for placing the catheter 60. In this embodiment, the stop block 22 is fixed to the base plate 10 using an adhesive such as glue. The distance between the stop surface of the stop block 22 and the center of the notch of the placement groove 201 is the required cutting length of the catheter 60. When the cutting length of the catheter 60 needs to be changed, the distance between the stop surface of the stop block 22 and the center of the notch of the placement groove 201 can be reduced or increased by changing the position of the stop block 22 on the base plate 10. It should be noted that the fixing method of the stop block on the bottom plate in the present invention is not limited to the pasting method in this embodiment, and other fixing methods that can achieve the purpose of the present invention can also be used.

[0029] Furthermore, the height of the fixing bar 21 and the height of the stop block 22 are both greater than the diameter of the catheter 60. In this way, the limited space formed by the side of the fixing bar 21 close to the guide groove 101, the stop surface of the stop block 22, and the surface of the base plate 10 can completely accommodate the catheter 60, thereby effectively avoiding the position displacement of the catheter 60 during the cutting process and ensuring the cutting quality of the catheter 60.

[0030] As an example, the sliding assembly 30 is used to move the cutter assembly 40. Specifically, the sliding assembly 30 is arranged along the width direction of the base plate 10 and is located on one side of the guide groove 101. In this embodiment, the sliding assembly 30 includes a slide rail 31 and a slider 32 slidably connected to the slide rail 31. The slide rail 31 is arranged between the guide groove 101 and the stop block 22. The slide rail 31 is arranged along the width direction of the base plate 10. In other words, the slide rail 31 is arranged perpendicular to the fixed bar 21, and a gap for accommodating the conduit 60 is provided between the end of the slide rail 31 close to the fixed bar 21 and the fixed bar 21. Furthermore, the sliding assembly 30 also includes a limiter 33, which is used to limit the sliding of the slider 32. A limiter 33 is provided at each end of the slide rail 31 in the length direction. In this embodiment, the limiter 33 is a limiter bolt, and an internal threaded hole for installing the limiter bolt is provided at each end of the slide rail 31 in the length direction. The axial direction of the internal threaded hole is arranged along the length direction of the slide rail 31. When the slider 32 is assembled on the slide rail 31, the limiter bolt can be inserted into the internal threaded hole to limit the sliding of the slider 32 on the slide rail 31.

[0031] As an example, the cutter assembly 40 is used to cut the catheter 60. Specifically, the cutter assembly 40 includes a mounting plate 41 and a cutter 42. The mounting plate 41 is detachably connected to the sliding assembly 30 through a plurality of fasteners 50. In this embodiment, the mounting plate 41 is an L-shaped plate, one side plate of the L-shaped plate is detachably connected to the slider 32 through a plurality of fasteners 50, the other side plate of the L-shaped plate is tightly attached to the side of the slider 32, and the side of the other side plate of the L-shaped plate facing away from the slider 32 is detachably connected to the cutter 42 through a plurality of fasteners 50, wherein the fastener 50 can be a connecting bolt. Furthermore, the cutter 42 is obliquely arranged on one side of the mounting plate 41 close to the guide groove 101, and one end of the cutter 42 is located in the guide groove 101. The angle between the cut surface of the cutter 42 and the surface of the bottom plate 10 is 30°-45°. As a specific example, in this embodiment, the angle between the cut surface of the cutter 42 and the surface of the bottom plate 10 is 35°. In actual use, when the cutter 42 moves from one end of the guide groove 101 away from the fixing bar 21 to the other end of the guide groove 101 through the sliding assembly 30, part of the blade of the cutter 42 is located in the placement groove 201. In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. Figure 2 As shown, when part of the blade of the cutter 42 is located in the placement groove 201 , the other end of the cutter 42 away from the bottom plate 10 is higher than the placement groove 201 .

[0032] During actual use, the working principle of the pipe cutting machine of the present invention can be as follows: when starting for the first time, first confirm whether the cutter 42 is fully installed and fixed, and whether the blade of the cutter 42 is worn. If it is worn, the cutter 42 can be disassembled and replaced. When the cutter 42 is confirmed to be in good condition, the cutting operation of the catheter 60 can be carried out. In this way, the problem of poor cutting quality of the catheter 60 caused by the poor condition of the cutter 42 can be avoided. Then, the catheter 60 is placed in the limited space formed by the side of the fixing bar 21 close to the guide groove 101, the stop surface of the stop block 22, and the surface of the bottom plate 10. Specifically, one end of the catheter 60 is extended along the fixing bar 21 to the stop surface of the stop block 22, and the end face of one end of the catheter 60 is in contact with the stop surface of the stop block 22. At the same time, the operator gently flattens the catheter 60 with one hand so that one side of the tube body of the catheter 60 is tangentially aligned with the side of the fixing bar 21. Then the operator's other hand The slider 32 is manually moved along the slide rail 31 toward the fixed bar 21 until the slider 32 moves to the end of the slide rail 31 near the fixed bar 21. During this process, the cutter 42 will move along with the slider 32 to the catheter 60. The blade of the cutter 42 will contact the catheter 60 and cut the catheter 60. When the cutter 42 completes cutting the catheter 60, the slider 32 can be moved in the opposite direction to the end of the slide rail 31 away from the fixed bar 21. At this time, the cut catheter 60 of the required length can be removed. If the catheter 60 needs to be cut multiple times, the above cutting process can be repeated to obtain catheters 60 of uniform length. Since the cutter 42 is cut by movement, the cut of the catheter 60 is smooth, which can ensure the cutting quality of the catheter 60 while improving the cutting efficiency of the catheter 60.

[0033] In summary, the beneficial effects of the pipe cutting machine of the present invention are: by arranging a stop assembly, a sliding assembly and a cutter assembly on the base plate, high-precision and high-efficiency cutting operations on the catheter can be achieved, and the cutting quality of the catheter is effectively guaranteed. Specifically, the stop assembly includes a fixed bar and a stop block arranged on one side of the fixed bar, and the stop block is provided with a placement groove. Through the cooperation of the stop assembly and the base plate, the catheter can be positioned and placed, and the required cutting length of the catheter can be set. The cutting length of the catheter can be unified in multiple cutting operations, and the cutting accuracy of the catheter can be ensured, thereby effectively ensuring the cutting quality of the catheter. At the same time, the mobility of the cutter is achieved by detachably arranging the cutter assembly on the sliding assembly. The design of the movable cutting of the cutter makes the incision of the catheter smooth, which can improve the cutting efficiency of the catheter while ensuring the cutting quality of the catheter, and the cutter can be removed from the sliding assembly for replacement after being damaged, effectively ensuring the performance of the entire device.
