Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of suture barbing technology, and in particular relates to a fully automatic suture barbing device. Background Technology
[0002] The main function of a suture deburring machine is to add barbs to medical sutures. This has the advantage that when suturing a patient, the suture, once closed, prevents the suture from loosening due to the elasticity of the tissue. Traditional suturing requires the suture to be constantly taut, so doctors need an assistant to suture properly. However, with the latest barbed sutures, no assistant is needed; one person can operate the machine independently to perfectly complete clinical suturing procedures. While barbing the sutures requires a deburring device, traditional deburring devices often require manual intervention, resulting in uneven barb spacing and reduced suture deburring quality. Therefore, a fully automatic suture deburring device is proposed.
[0003] For example, Chinese patent CN221555752U discloses a suture barb processing mechanism, including a processing table. A first mounting plate is provided on both sides of the front end of the upper surface of the processing table. A first servo motor is fixedly connected to the upper part of the outer wall of one side of the first mounting plate. A first winding roller is provided at the output end of the first servo motor. A mounting box is provided in the middle of the upper surface of the processing table. A rotating block is slidably connected to the middle of the inner wall of the mounting box. A fixing ring is fixedly connected to the front end of the inner wall of the mounting box. Multiple fixing holes are opened on the outer wall of the front end of the fixing ring. Two hydraulic rods are fixedly connected to both sides of the inner wall of the rotating block.
[0004] The existing technical documents have the following problems:
[0005] Existing technical documents have some drawbacks in use, such as the fact that most of the barbing work requires manual intervention, leading to uneven barb spacing on the suture line and reduced production quality. Furthermore, manual trimming of the suture segments after barbing further reduces the efficiency of the barbing process. Therefore, we propose a fully automated suture barbing device. Utility Model Content
[0006] The purpose of this invention is to address the aforementioned technical problems by providing a fully automatic suture barbing device that automates the barbing process and automatically cuts the suture thread.
[0007] In view of this, the present invention provides a fully automatic suture barbing device, including a workbench, and further comprising: a fixed bracket fixedly installed on the top of the workbench; a connecting frame fixedly installed on one side of the fixed bracket; a fixed column fixedly installed between the connecting frames; a second servo motor fixedly installed on the top of the fixed column; a suturing and deburring electric cylinder fixedly installed at one end of the second servo motor; angle adjustment plates movably installed on both sides of the suturing and deburring electric cylinder; a deburring cylinder fixedly installed between the angle adjustment plates; a knife holder fixedly installed between the suturing and deburring electric cylinders; a cutting blade fixedly installed between the knife holders; a flipping swing arm fixedly installed at the output end of the deburring cylinder; support columns equidistantly installed on one side of the connecting frame; a pulling electric cylinder fixedly installed on the top of the support column; a first telescopic cylinder fixedly installed on the top of the pulling electric cylinder; a gripper cylinder fixedly installed on the other side of the first telescopic cylinder; a gripper head fixedly installed at the output end of the gripper cylinder; a second telescopic cylinder fixedly installed on the surface of the support column; and a scissor cylinder fixedly installed on one side of the second telescopic cylinder.
[0008] Based on the above structure, the deburring cylinder flips the burr back to its original position, and the cutter also returns to the standby position, thereby achieving automatic deburring of the suture thread using machinery. This ensures that the deburring distance of the suture thread is uniform. The thread-pulling cylinder automatically comes over to clamp the end of the suture thread. The fixed thread clamping claw head will open and retract under the cooperation of the first telescopic cylinder and the clamping claw cylinder. The thread-pulling cylinder tightens the suture thread. When the suture thread that has been deburred reaches the set length, the clamping part extends and clamps the suture thread. After that, the lower scissor cylinder drives the scissor head to extend and cut the thread and retract to its original position.
[0009] Preferably, a barb adjustment micrometer is fixedly installed between the angle adjustment plates, which is used to finely adjust the angle of the cutter.
[0010] Preferably, the output end of the scissor cylinder is fixedly equipped with a scissor head, which is made of stainless steel and is used to cut the suture thread.
[0011] Preferably, a thread feeding seat is fixedly installed on the top of the workbench, an operation box is fixedly installed at one end of the thread feeding seat, and a fixing seat is fixedly installed on one side of the thread feeding seat, so as to store the sewing thread.
[0012] Preferably, a thread guide tube is fixedly installed on the top of the fixing seat, and a tensioning wheel is fixedly installed on one side of the thread guide tube to control the tension of the suture thread.
[0013] Preferably, pressure rollers are equidistantly installed on the top of the fixed bracket, a magnetic powder damping brake is installed through the bottom of the fixed bracket, and a first servo motor is fixedly installed at one end of the fixed bracket, so that the magnetic powder damping brake can be used to perform precise power control on the first servo motor.
[0014] Preferably, a geared motor is fixedly installed on one side of the first servo motor, a synchronous belt is sleeved on the output end of the geared motor, and a synchronous fixing shaft is movably installed on one side of the synchronous belt, so that the synchronous fixing shaft and the geared motor can be connected by the synchronous belt.
[0015] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0016] 1. A fully automatic suture deburring device, comprising: installing a fixed column via a connecting frame; installing a second servo motor via the fixed column; connecting a suture deburring electric cylinder via the second servo motor; and installing a cutter via a blade holder. After the suture is fixed, the suture deburring electric cylinder drives the cutter to extend from the standby position and cut to the required depth. A deburring cylinder flips the deburr, returning it to its original position, and the cutter returns to the standby position. This achieves automatic deburring of the suture using machinery, resulting in uniform deburring distance and improved deburring quality.
[0017] 2. A fully automatic suture barbing device, comprising a support column for mounting a pull-line electric cylinder, which in turn mounts a first telescopic cylinder, which in turn mounts a gripper cylinder. The gripper cylinder then connects to a gripper head. The pull-line electric cylinder automatically clamps the end of the suture. The gripper head opens and retracts in conjunction with the first telescopic cylinder and the gripper cylinder. The pull-line electric cylinder tightens the suture. When the suture to be barbed reaches a set length, the clamping part extends to hold the suture. A lower scissor cylinder then extends the scissor head to cut the suture and retracts it. This achieves automatic suture cutting, avoiding manual cutting and improving the efficiency of suture barbing. Attached Figure Description
