[0034] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, but they are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0035] Example

[0036] This embodiment provides a disposable ablation electrode, comprising a handle 1, a barrel 2, and an ablation assembly 3; wherein,

[0037] The handle portion 1 is provided with a receiving cavity, and an elastic member 11 is provided in the receiving cavity; the elastic member 11 includes a fixing portion and two elastic sheets provided at the distal end of the fixing portion; the fixing portion is clamped to the proximal end of the handle portion 1;

[0038] The gun barrel 2 is used for suction, flushing, electrocoagulation or electrocuting. The gun barrel 2 includes an inner tube 21, an outer tube 22, a rotating head 23 and an electric knife head assembly 24. The proximal end of the inner tube 21 is sleeved on the distal end of the handle 1 and extends into the accommodating cavity. The distal end of the inner tube 21 is provided with the electric knife head assembly 24. The outer tube 22 is sleeved on the outside of the inner tube 21 and is slidably connected to the inner tube 21 via the rotating head 23. A plurality of flushing and suction holes 221 are opened on the side wall of the distal end of the outer tube 22.

[0039] The rotating head 23 comprises an outer rotating head 231 and an inner rotating head 232 sleeved in the outer rotating head 231; the proximal end of the outer rotating head 231 is engaged with the proximal end of the inner rotating head 232; a clamping block 2311 is extended inwardly from the middle of the distal end of the outer rotating head 231, and an outer rotating head limiting portion 2321 is extended inwardly from the middle of the distal end of the inner rotating head 232, and a distal end of the outer rotating head limiting portion 2321 is provided with a clamping block 2311. The outer tube 22 is provided with a limiting groove, and the clamping block 2311 cooperates with the limiting groove to realize the clamping connection between the distal end of the outer rotating head 231 and the distal end of the inner rotating head 232; an outer tube limiting groove 233 for limiting the outer tube 22 is formed between the proximal end of the clamping block 2311 and the distal end of the groove wall of the limiting groove; the outer tube 22 is sleeved on the middle part of the distal end of the outer rotating head 231, and the proximal end of the outer tube 22 is turned outward in its circumferential direction so that it can be clamped into the outer tube limiting groove 233 and is not easy to fall out;

[0040] The rotating head 23 is sleeved on the outer side of the distal end of the handle portion 1 and is slidably connected to the handle portion 1; a plurality of limiting bumps are provided on the outer wall of the distal end of the handle portion 1 for limiting the position of the rotating head 23. The limiting bumps require the operator to apply a certain force to the rotating head 23 in order to pull the rotating head 23, thereby preventing the rotating head 23 from sliding on its own;

[0041] The proximal end of the electric knife head assembly 24 is connected to the distal end of the inner tube 21 , and the distal end of the electric knife head assembly 24 is fixedly provided with a straight hook-shaped head 241 , a curved hook-shaped head 242 or a shovel-shaped head 243 ;

[0042] The flushing and suction assembly 3 includes: a flushing pipeline 31, a flushing tube control assembly, a suction pipeline 32, a suction pipeline control assembly and a knob 33 for locking the suction pipeline control assembly; the distal ends of the flushing pipeline 31 and the suction pipeline 32 are connected to the proximal end of the inner tube 21 through a three-way pipe, and the proximal ends of the flushing pipeline 31 and the suction pipeline 32 extend to the outside of the accommodating cavity; the flushing tube control assembly and the suction tube control assembly are arranged side by side, and a limiting shaft is provided in the handle part 1. The middle portion of the tube control assembly is sleeved outside the limit shaft, so that the middle portions of the flushing tube control assembly and the suction tube control assembly are rotatably connected to the handle portion 1; the flushing tube control assembly includes: a flushing button 34 extending outside the accommodating cavity and a flushing tube pressing portion 35 provided in the accommodating cavity, the flushing button 34 and the flushing tube pressing portion 35 are respectively located at two ends of the flushing tube control assembly. When the operator presses the flushing button 34, the flushing tube pressing portion 35 is lifted, so that the flushing pipeline 31 is connected, thereby enabling the flushing operation;

[0043] The suction tube control assembly includes a suction button 36 extending out of the accommodating cavity and a suction tube pressing portion 37 disposed within the accommodating cavity. The suction button 36 and the suction tube pressing portion 37 are located at two ends of the suction tube control assembly, respectively. When the operator presses the suction button 36, the suction tube pressing portion 37 is lifted, thereby connecting the suction pipe 32 and performing the suction operation.

[0044] The distal ends of the two elastic sheets respectively penetrate the flushing tube pressing portion 35 and the suction tube pressing portion 37; when the flushing tube pressing portion 35 and the suction tube pressing portion 37 are lifted, they drive the two elastic sheets to lift together. When the pressure on the flushing button 34 and the suction button 36 disappears, the rebound force of the elastic sheets drives the flushing tube pressing portion 35 and the suction tube pressing portion 37 back to their initial positions, and then the flushing button 34 and the suction button 36 also return to their initial positions.

[0045] The knob 33 includes: a hand-holding portion 331 provided at the top of the handle portion 1 and a locking portion 332 provided in the accommodating cavity; the bottom end of the hand-holding portion 331 is fixedly connected to the top end of the locking portion 332; a notch 3321 is provided at the bottom end of the locking portion 332; the suction tube control assembly also includes a ramp 38, which extends toward the direction of the gun barrel 2 and is located in the notch 3321 in the initial state. When the operator presses the suction button 36, the ramp 38 moves down with the suction button 36 and then out of the notch 3321. At this time, by rotating the knob 33, the part of the locking portion 332 without a notch can limit the ramp 38, so that the ramp 38 cannot return to the initial position, thus completing the locking.

[0046] Here's how it works:

[0047] When electrocoagulation or electrocutting is required, the operator can select an electric knife head assembly 24 with a different head shape according to specific needs, turn on the high-frequency generator, and perform electrocoagulation or electrocutting. When the electric knife head assembly 24 is not needed, the operator can hold the rotating head 23 and apply a force to the rotating head 23 toward the distal end of the gun barrel 2, so that the rotating head 23 drives the outer tube 22 to move toward the distal end, thereby retracting the electric knife head assembly 24 at the distal end of the inner tube 21 into the outer tube 22.

[0048] When suction treatment is required, the operator presses the suction button 36, at which time the suction line 32 is connected, rotates the knob 33, locks the suction tube control assembly so that the suction tube control assembly cannot rebound, and then releases the suction button 36. The proximal end of the suction line 32 is connected to the suction device, and the suction device is turned on. The liquid in the patient's body flows into the suction line 32 through the gun barrel 2; after the suction treatment is completed, the suction device is turned off, and the knob 33 is rotated so that the suction tube control assembly rebounds to the initial position under the action of the elastic sheet.

[0049] When flushing is required, the operator presses the flush button 34, and the flushing pipeline 31 is connected. Physiological saline or liquid medicine can be injected into the proximal end of the flushing pipeline 31, so that it flows through the barrel 2 to the part that needs to be flushed.

[0050] To sum up, the gun barrel of the present invention includes an inner tube and an outer tube. The outer tube can move back and forth along the axial direction of the inner tube under the drive of the rotating head. On the one hand, the outer tube can protect the electric knife head assembly so that it is not easily bumped. On the other hand, the electric knife head assembly is placed in the outer tube, which is also convenient for subsequent flushing and suction processing. The present invention is also provided with a knob that can lock the suction tube control assembly, so that the operator does not need to continuously press the suction button, reducing the difficulty of operation.

[0051] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and does not limit the implementation method and protection scope of the present invention. For those skilled in the art, it should be aware that all solutions obtained by equivalent substitutions and obvious changes made using the description and illustrations of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
