Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of medical instruments, and in particular relates to a gun-type lymph node forceps with an opening and a handle that open and close perpendicularly. Background Art
[0002] The gun-type lymph node forceps is an instrument used for lymph node biopsy surgery. Its technical background is closely related to lymph node examination and cancer treatment. Lymph nodes are important tissues in the body and play a key role in the immune system. Therefore, examining and evaluating lymph nodes is crucial for cancer diagnosis and analysis. However, traditional surgical methods are very harmful to the body and require a long recovery period. To better manipulate lymph nodes, lymph node forceps have emerged. Compared to traditional clamping tools, using lymph node forceps to manipulate lymph nodes is less traumatic to the body. This instrument, similar to a pair of pliers, has an openable and retractable clamping head and is primarily used for manipulation of lymph nodes during surgery.
[0003] The design of lymph node forceps makes lymph node biopsy procedures simpler and more precise. They can be performed through small incisions or puncture wounds, reducing trauma and recovery time. For example, designs with publication / announcement numbers CN105640612A and CN205626029U significantly reduce compression during lymph node grasping and clamping, preventing tumor cells within the lymph nodes from being squeezed and metastasized to other tissues. This facilitates safe surgery, saves time and effort, and reduces the workload of medical personnel. While these technologies have alleviated the aforementioned issues to some extent, such as reducing lymph node compression and improving operational convenience, existing lymph node forceps technology still has some limitations. The main issues focus on surgical precision, ease of operation, and the impact on the patient. Traditional lymph node forceps can cause tissue damage during grasping and removal of lymph nodes due to difficulty controlling the clamping force, particularly squeezing the delicate lymph node structure, increasing surgical risks and the potential for complications. Furthermore, due to varying viewing angles and limited visual field, doctors may encounter challenges during operation, impacting surgical efficiency and outcomes. Among them, the Chinese utility model patent with announcement number CN205626029U introduces a multifunctional lymph node forceps, which changes the clamp head of the lymph node forceps into an arc-shaped mesh, making the clamp head convenient for single-port thoracoscopic surgery; it greatly reduces the squeezing of lymph nodes when grasping and clamping lymph nodes, but the clamp head and the handle are coaxial, which makes the surgical operation more inconvenient.
[0004] Among other existing technologies, Chinese utility model patent publication number CN209172425U introduces a lymph node forceps with a curved head, but the degree of curvature is small, and the field of view during actual use is still relatively narrow. Chinese utility model patent publication number CN212521856U introduces a surgical lymph node forceps that can be used flexibly under small-invasive surgery conditions. The opening and closing function of the forceps head is achieved through the sliding connection between the forceps body and the slide, but the curvature of the forceps head is still relatively limited, and the offset from the axis of the forceps handle is small. The lymph node forceps proposed in the above patents have a slender body portion and may lack sufficient clamping strength and structural stability. In addition, the curved forceps solution with publication numbers CN209172425U and CN212521856U does not provide a clear indication of the doctor's surgical field of view compared to the straight forceps solution with publication number CN205626029U.
[0005] In summary, the lymph node forceps in the prior art still have much room for improvement in terms of clamping force control, surgical accuracy, operational convenience and improved visual field.
[0006] Faced with these challenges, there is an urgent need for a different form of lymph node forceps that can overcome the limitations of existing technologies and provide a more precise, safer, and more humane surgical solution. Utility Model Content

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0033] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more clear, the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described here are only used to explain the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Figure 1-8 The gun-type lymph node forceps with the opening and closing perpendicular to the forceps handle are further explained.
[0034] Example 1
[0035] A gun-type lymph node forceps with an opening and a handle that open and close perpendicularly, comprising a forceps body 1, a forceps handle 2, a forceps head 4 and a slider 8, wherein the forceps body 1 comprises a lower forceps body 1-2 and an upper forceps body 1-1, the forceps handle 2 comprises a movable forceps handle 2-1 and a fixed forceps handle 2-2 that are arranged opposite to each other, the fixed forceps handle 2-2 being fixed to the lower forceps body 1-2, the rear end of the upper forceps body 1-1 being hinged to the slider 8, and the slider 8 being connected to the movable forceps handle 2-1; the forceps head 4 comprises a fixed forceps head 4-2 and a movable forceps head 4-1, the fixed forceps head 4-2 being fixed to the lower forceps body 1-2, and the movable forceps head 4-1 being hinged to the upper forceps body 1-1.
[0036] The upper jaw 1-1 is provided with at least two trapezoidal guide slots 6 in the middle. Each guide slot 6 houses a T-pin 3 for guiding the movement of the upper jaw 1-1. A concave structure 12 is provided at the front end of the lower jaw 1-2. The movable jaw 4-1 is hingedly connected to the concave structure 12 at the front end of the lower jaw 1-2 via a convex structure 11 at its connecting portion. A pin slot 9 is also provided at the front end of the lower jaw 1-2. The jaw pin 5-2 is slidably connected to the pin slot 9. The jaw pin 5-2 is also slidably connected to the jaw slot slot 10.
[0037] The rear ends of the upper and lower jaws 1-1 and 1-2 are both provided with a rotation slot 7 for providing rotation for the slider 8. The guide slot 6 includes a large end 6-1 and a narrow portion 6-2, which are connected to each other.
[0038] The working principle and process of the gun-type lymph node forceps are as follows:
[0039] Working principle:
[0040] By moving the movable clamp handle 2-1 up and down, the slider 8 is driven to rotate using the lever principle, thereby driving the upper clamp body 1-1 to move relative to the lower clamp body 1-2.
[0041] The cooperation between the trapezoidal guide groove 6 in the middle of the upper clamp body 1-1 and the T-pin 3 ensures the stability and accuracy of the upper clamp body during movement and prevents deviation or shaking.
[0042] The hinged connection between the movable clamp head 4-1 and the upper clamp body 1-1, and the hinged connection between the convex structure 11 of the connecting part of the movable clamp head 4-1 and the concave structure 12 at the front end of the lower clamp body 1-2, enable the clamp head part to open and close flexibly to adapt to lymph nodes of different shapes and sizes.
[0043] The sliding of the clamp head pin 5 - 2 in the pin shaft slot 9 and the clamp head slot 10 further enhances the flexibility and stability of the clamp head part, ensuring precise control of the clamp head during the clamping process.
[0044] Working process:
[0045] Initial state: The pliers are in a closed state, the movable pliers handle 2-1 fits tightly against the fixed pliers handle 2-2, the upper pliers body 1-1 and the lower pliers body 1-2 are close to each other, and the fixed pliers head 4-2 and the movable pliers head 4-1 are closed to form a small clamping space.
[0046] Opening process: The surgeon grips the fixed forceps handle 2-2 and pushes the movable forceps handle 2-1 upward. The upward movement of the movable forceps handle 2-1 is translated into the rearward movement of the upper forceps body 1-1 relative to the lower forceps body 1-2 by the rotation of the slider 8. During this process, the T-pin 3 slides within the trapezoidal guide groove 6, ensuring smooth and accurate movement of the upper forceps body 1-1.
[0047] Clamping Process: As upper forceps 1-1 moves backward, movable jaw 4-1, via the convex structure 11 at its connecting portion, rotates within the concave structure 12 at the front end of lower forceps 1-2, gradually opening the jaws. Simultaneously, jaw pin 5-2 slides within pin guide slot 9 and jaw guide slot 10, ensuring stability and flexibility during the opening process. When the jaws are fully opened, the surgeon can align the forceps with the target lymph node.
[0048] Closing process: The surgeon reverses the movement of the movable forceps handle 2-1, causing it to move downward. This movement is translated into forward movement of the upper forceps body 1-1 relative to the lower forceps body 1-2 through the rotation of the slider 8. Simultaneously, the T-pin 3 slides in the opposite direction within the trapezoidal guide groove 6. As the upper forceps body 1-1 moves forward, the movable forceps head 4-1 gradually approaches the fixed forceps head 4-2 until the two are tightly closed, clamping the lymph node.
[0049] Stable clamping: During the clamping process, the close fit between the trapezoidal guide groove 6 and the T-pin 3, as well as the flexible hinged and sliding connection of the forceps head, ensures that the forceps can stably and accurately clamp the lymph nodes, providing strong support for surgical operations.
[0050] The utility model's vertical opening and closing gun-type lymph node forceps aims to provide a stronger clamping force through an innovative vertical opening and closing mechanism, providing a new surgical field of view, reducing tissue damage, and improving surgical efficiency, thereby bringing revolutionary changes to lymph node biopsy surgery.
[0051] Example 2
[0052] As a new embodiment, or a supplement to embodiment 1.
[0053] like Figure 1 The vertically opening and closing gun-type lymph node forceps shown in the figure has the following main technical features: a forceps body 1; a forceps handle 2; a T-pin 3; a forceps head 4; a forceps head pin 5; a guide groove 6; a rotating slide 7; a slider 8; a pin shaft slide 9; a forceps head slide 10; a convex structure 11; and a concave structure 12.
[0054] The gun-type lymph node forceps has an opening and closing perpendicular to the handle. The lower body 1-2 is immovable, and the upper body 1-1 is movable. The rear end of the upper body 1-1 is hinged to the slider 8, and the slider 8 is connected to the movable handle 2-1. The middle end of the upper body 1-1 is provided with two guide grooves 6, which cooperate with the T-pin 3. The upper body 1-1 and the movable clamp head 4-1 are hinged. The two ends of the lower body 1-2 are respectively provided with a fixed handle 2-2 and a fixed clamp head 4-2, and the relative positions of the two are provided with a movable handle 2-1 and a movable clamp head 4-1. The rear ends of the upper body 1-1 and the lower body 1-2 are simultaneously provided with a rotating slide groove 7 for the slider 8 to rotate. When the gun-type lymph node forceps is used, by opening and closing the movable handle 2-1, the slider 8 rotates accordingly, driving the upper body 1-1 to slide accordingly, driving the movable clamp head 4-1 to open and close, thereby achieving grasping.
[0055] The movable handle 2-1 moves in a manner similar to loading a pistol during the opening and closing of the lymph node forceps described in this embodiment. Figure 2 As shown, the front end of the lower clamp body 1-2 is provided with a pin shaft slot 9, and the clamp head pin 5-2 slides in this slot and can move in the clamp head slot 10 at the same time. The movable clamp head 4-1 can be driven to open and close by the clamp head pin 5-2. At this time, the pin shaft slot 9 and the clamp head slot 10 play a guiding role at the same time. This form can make the lymph node clamp more powerful. Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown, the front end of the lower pliers body 1-2 is a concave structure 12, and the convex structure 11 of the linking part of the movable pliers head 4-1 is hinged to the concave structure 12 at the front end of the lower pliers body 1-2, so that the movement of the movable pliers head 4-1 is more stable and firm.
[0056] At the same time, the lymph node forceps described in this embodiment are provided with guide grooves 6 evenly on the forceps body 1, Figure 5 It can be seen that the T-pin 3 cooperates with the guide groove 6 opened in the upper clamp body 1-1, guiding the movement of the upper clamp body 1-1. The guide groove 6 is designed with a trapezoidal structure. During assembly, the T-pin 3 enters from the large end 6-1 of the guide groove 6. When the lymph node forceps is opened and closed normally, the T-pin 3 slides in the narrow part 6-2 of the guide groove 6, guiding the movement of the upper clamp body 1-1, making the movement of the upper clamp body 1-1 more stable during the opening and closing process of the lymph node forceps, thereby improving the structural strength and reliability.
[0057] The utility model changes the clamping direction so that the opening direction of the forceps head 1 is perpendicular to the opening direction of the forceps handle 2. The lymph node forceps can provide a new intraoperative observation angle, allowing the doctor to see the shape, structure and details of the clamped object more clearly, thereby better evaluating the surgical operation and making accurate decisions.
[0058] Unlike traditional lymph node forceps, the clamping direction of the utility model is perpendicular to the opening and closing direction. During surgery, the operating angle of the horizontal lymph node forceps may be limited. This patent provides a new operating angle for surgery by vertically opening and closing the forceps head.
[0059] The convex-concave matching of the movable forceps head 4-1 and the convex structure 11 and the concave structure 12 of the lower forceps body 1-2, and the guiding design of the pin shaft slide 9 and the forceps head slide 10, make the movement mode similar to loading a pistol, so that the lymph node forceps can grasp the tissue more firmly, thereby improving the safety during the operation.
[0060] The clamping direction of the utility model is perpendicular to the opening and closing direction of the forceps handle, providing a new operation method and visual field for surgery; the front end of the lower forceps body 1-2 is hinged to the movable forceps head 4-1 in a concave-convex structure, and the forceps head connecting portion is hinged to the concave structure 12 at the front end of the lower forceps body 1-2 in a convex shape. When opening and closing, the upper forceps body 1-1 drives the movable forceps head 4-1 to open and close through the forceps head pin 5-2. At this time, the forceps head pin 5-2 moves in the pin shaft slide groove 9. At the same time, the forceps head pin 5-2 slides in the forceps head slide groove 10. This gun-like pistol loading structure improves the stability of the forceps head opening and closing. The T-pin 3 and guide groove 6 designed on the upper and lower forceps bodies make the movement of the lymph node forceps more stable, providing a more secure grip when clamping tissue, reducing the risk of slipping or falling off, and improving the safety of the surgical process.
[0061] The above is only a preferred specific implementation method of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited to this. Any technician familiar with the technical field within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention can make equivalent replacements or changes based on the technical solution and utility model concept of the present invention, which should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
