[0001] This utility model relates to the field of skin suture device technology, specifically a skin suture device for small animals. Background Technology

[0002] Skin staplers, medically known as "disposable skin staplers," "skin pins," or "skin staplers," are medical devices used to replace manual suturing. Their main working principle is to use titanium staples to anastomose tissue, similar to a stapler. Skin staplers are often used in the treatment of small animals.

[0003] Traditional skin suture devices require two separate clamps to hold the skin on both sides of the wound before the suture device is used to suture it. This makes the operation more complicated and less convenient than traditional methods. Utility Model Content

[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0021] Please see Figure 1 - Figure 5 A small animal skin suture device includes an upper clamp 1, a lower clamp 2 rotatably connected to the outer wall of the upper clamp 1, a torsion spring 3 movably sleeved on the outer wall of the lower clamp 2, an installation frame 4 fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the upper clamp 1, a nail box 5 installed in the inner cavity of the installation frame 4, a limit rod 6 fixedly mounted on the inner wall of the nail box 5, a drive spring 7 movably sleeved on the outer wall of the limit rod 6, a drive plate 8 movably sleeved on the outer wall of the limit rod 6, a magnet 9 fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the installation frame 4, a rotating rod 13 rotatably connected to the inner cavity of the nail box 5, a rotating plate 14 fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the rotating rod 13, a fixed plate 10 mounted on the top of the rotating plate 14, and the outer wall of the fixed plate 10... An adsorption plate 11 is fixedly assembled. A suture nail 12 is installed in the inner cavity of the nail box 5. A rotating rod 13 is rotatably connected to the inner cavity of the mounting frame 4. A rotating plate 14 is fixedly assembled on the outer wall of the rotating rod 13. A support rod 15 is installed on the top of the rotating plate 14. A top plate 16 is fixedly assembled on the top of the support rod 15. A push plate 17 is movably sleeved on the outer wall of the support rod 15. A drive motor 18 is fixedly assembled on the top of the rotating plate 14. A drive disk 19 is fixedly assembled on the power output shaft of the drive motor 18. A connecting plate 20 is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the drive disk 19. A button 21 is fixedly assembled on the outer wall of the upper clamping plate 1. A nail outlet groove 22 is opened in the inner cavity of the nail box 5.

[0022] In the above structure, the lower clamp 2, which is set on the outer wall of the upper clamp 1, and the torsion spring 3, which is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the lower clamp 2, can support the lower clamp 2 and the upper clamp 1 under the action of the torsion spring 3, so that the outer walls of the lower clamp 2 and the upper clamp 1 can be separated. When using the upper clamp 1 and the lower clamp 2 to fix the skin, it is only necessary to press the upper clamp 1 and the lower clamp 2, which is very convenient.

[0023] In a preferred embodiment: the two ends of the outer wall of the torsion spring 3 are in contact with the outer walls of the upper clamping plate 1 and the lower clamping plate 2, respectively, and the two ends of the outer wall of the drive spring 7 are connected to the outer wall of the drive plate 8 and the inner wall of the nail box 5, respectively.

[0024] In the above structure, the limiting rod 6 and the driving spring 7 are provided in the inner cavity of the nail box 5. Under the action of the driving spring 7, the outer wall of the driving plate 8 can be driven, so that the outer wall of the driving plate 8 can fit against the outer wall of the suture nail 12, thereby driving the suture nail 12, so that the suture nail 12 can move forward continuously under the action of the driving plate 8 and the driving spring 7.

[0025] In a preferred embodiment, the outer wall shape of the nail box 5 matches the inner wall shape and size of the mounting frame 4, and the outer wall shape of the rotating plate 14 matches the outer wall shape and size of the nail box 5.

[0026] In the above structure, the rotating plate 14 provided on the outer wall of the mounting frame 4 can rotate on the top of the mounting frame 4 under the action of the rotating rod 13. When the rotating plate 14 is rotated, when the top of the rotating plate 14 is aligned with the top of the nail box 5, the inner cavity of the nail box 5 can be sealed under the action of the rotating plate 14, so that the suture nail 12 can be placed more stably in the inner cavity of the nail box 5.

[0027] In a preferred embodiment, the inner wall shape of the staple groove 22 matches the outer wall shape of the staple 12, and the width of the bottom of the push plate 17 is equal to the width of the top of the staple 12.

[0028] In the above structure, the nail outlet groove 22 opened at the bottom of the inner cavity of the nail box 5 allows the push plate 17 to move downward along the outer wall of the support rod 15 under the action of the drive motor 18 and the drive disc 19. When the push plate 17 moves downward, it can drive the suture nail 12 in the inner cavity of the nail box 5, so that the suture nail 12 can move downward from the inner cavity of the nail outlet groove 22, thereby inserting the suture nail 12 into the skin of the small animal.

[0029] In a preferred embodiment: the outer wall of the end of button 21 away from drive disk 19 is rotatably connected to the outer wall of push plate 17, the lower clamping plate 2 is electrically connected to drive motor 18, and both adsorption plate 11 and fixing plate 10 are made of metal iron.

[0030] In the above structure, the push plate 17 provided on the outer wall of the drive plate 19 will cause the drive plate 19 to rotate under the drive motor 18. In the process of the drive plate 19 rotating, the connecting plate 20 will be driven. Thus, under the push of the connecting plate 20, the bottom of the push plate 17 can contact the top of the suture nail 12, thereby driving the suture nail 12.

[0031] In a preferred embodiment, there are two nail boxes 5, and the two nail boxes 5 are respectively installed on the outer walls of the upper clamping plate 1 and the lower clamping plate 2, with the nail boxes 5 on the outer walls of the upper clamping plate 1 and the lower clamping plate 2 being staggered front to back.

[0032] In the above structure, the nail box 5 installed on the outer walls of the upper clamping plate 1 and the lower clamping plate 2, and the rotating plate 14 rotatably connected in the inner cavity of the nail box 5, can drive the push plate 17 under the action of the drive motor 18 and the drive disk 19 on the top of the rotating plate 14. This allows the push plate 17 to drive the suture nails 12 in the inner cavity of the nail box 5, so that the outer wall of the suture nails 12 pierces into the skin of the small animal. Furthermore, the suture nails 12 on the outer walls of the upper clamping plate 1 and the lower clamping plate 2 can be installed in a staggered manner, which better achieves the suturing of the small animal's skin.

[0033] Working Principle: When using the above equipment to suture the skin of a small animal, the nail cartridge 5 must first be removed from the inner cavity of the mounting frame 4. At this time, the fixing plate 10 and the suction plate 11 need to be moved away from the top of the rotating plate 14. By rotating the suction plate 11, the outer wall of the suction plate 11 separates from the outer wall of the magnet 9. Then, the suction plate 11 and the fixing plate 10 can be moved away from the top of the rotating plate 14, allowing the nail cartridge 5 to be removed from the inner cavity of the mounting frame 4. After removing the nail cartridge 5, suture needles need to be placed inside the inner cavity of the nail cartridge 5. By rotating the rotating plate 14, the rotating plate 14 is moved away from the top of the nail cartridge 5, exposing the inner cavity of the nail cartridge 5. Suture needles can then be filled into the inner cavity of the nail cartridge 5, and the outer wall of the drive plate 8 is aligned with the outer wall of the suture needle, thus securing the suture needle. After installation, the nail box 5 can be reinstalled into the inner cavity of the mounting frame 4, and the fixing plate 10 can be placed on top of the rotating plate 14, so that the adsorption plate 11 attracts the outer wall of the magnet 9, thereby installing and fixing the fixing plate 10 and the adsorption plate 11. Then, by pressing the button 21 on the top of the upper clamping plate 1, the drive motor 18 is started under the action of the button 21. Under the action of the drive motor 18, the drive disk 19 and the connecting plate 20 are rotated, thereby driving the push plate 17 to move up and down on the outer wall of the support rod 15. Then, under the action of the push plate 17, the suture nail 12 can be pushed out. Under the action of the upper clamping plate 1 and the lower clamping plate 2, the skin of the small animal can be clamped first, and then the suture nail 12 will be pushed out from the inner cavity of the nail box 5. Under the action of the suture nail 12, the skin of the small animal can be pierced, and the skin can be sutured.

[0034] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
