DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0022] In order to make the purpose, technical scheme and advantages of the application more clear and understandable, the application will be further described in detail below in combination with the drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the application and do not limit the application. Moreover, the embodiments in the application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other without conflict.
[0023] Figure 1 and Figure 2 respectively show the overall structure and exploded structure of the positioning wire 10 according to an embodiment of the application. Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the positioning wire 10 is composed of three sections of the positioning hook 11, the positioning marker sleeve 12 and the guide wire 13. The positioning marker sleeve 13 is provided with the positioning marker 14, and the guide wire 13 is provided with the operation marker 15. The positioning hook 11 is formed by the hook wire 111 with a head shaped as required, which can be the V-shaped as shown, or Q-shaped, Z-shaped, etc., and can also have a single hook, double hook, four hooks, etc., and is not limited to the embodiment shown. The proximal end of the hook wire 111 of the positioning hook 11 and the distal end of the guide wire 13 are fixedly connected to the positioning marker sleeve 12 by deforming the positioning marker sleeve 12 under pressure, so that the three sections of the positioning hook 11, the positioning marker sleeve 12 and the guide wire 13 are connected to form a whole.
[0024] Specifically referring to Figure 3 In the embodiment shown, the positioning marker sleeve 12 is a hollow circular tube with an outer surface 121 and an inner surface 122. The proximal end of the hook wire 111 of the positioning hook 11 and the distal end of the guide wire 13 are inserted into the positioning marker sleeve 12 from the two ends of the positioning marker sleeve 12, so that the proximal end face of the hook wire 111 and the distal end face of the guide wire 13 are aligned in the positioning marker sleeve 12. Then, the positioning marker sleeve 12 is deformed under pressure to form an array of pits 123 on the outer surface 121 of the positioning marker sleeve 12, and at the same time, an array of corresponding protrusions 124 is formed on the inner surface 122 of the positioning marker sleeve 12. The protrusions 124 are in interference fit with the proximal end of the hook wire 111 and the distal end of the guide wire 13, so as to fixedly connect the proximal end of the hook wire 111 of the positioning hook 11 and the distal end of the guide wire 13 in the positioning marker sleeve 12, so that the three sections of the positioning hook 11, the positioning marker sleeve 12 and the guide wire 13 are connected to form a whole positioning wire 10. Moreover, the array of pits 123 formed on the outer surface 121 of the positioning marker sleeve 12 is orderly distributed, forming a feature of increasing ultrasonic visualization, which can be used as the positioning marker 14 at the same time, so that the positioning marker 14 can be made by etching or dotting, etc. on the positioning marker sleeve 12, and the processing is simpler and faster. Further, the positioning marker 14 formed by the pits 123 can be distributed in sections from the distal end to the proximal end of the positioning marker sleeve 12 according to the depth requirement, so as to display the positioning depth. For example Figure 2 In the embodiment shown, the positioning marker 14 is composed of three parts of the first marker section 14a distributed at the distal end of the positioning marker sleeve 12, the second marker section 14b distributed at the middle of the positioning marker sleeve 12 and the third marker section 14c distributed at the proximal end of the positioning marker sleeve 12, so as to display the three-section positioning depth of the positioning wire 10, and facilitate the doctor to judge how far away from the lesion where the positioning hook 11 is located when performing the surgical resection along the positioning wire 10. In addition, referring to Figure 3As shown, the first hole 125 can be formed on the proximal end of the positioning marker sleeve 12 close to each segment positioning marker, and the non-falling convex point 126 exposed on the outer surface 121 can be filled in the first hole 125, so that the surgeon can touch the convex point 126 of the segment through the gloves to determine the distance from the lesion when the visual positioning marker is not clear.
[0025] The positioning wire 10 according to the above embodiments of the present application is composed of three segments of the positioning hook 11, the positioning marker sleeve 12 and the guide wire 13, and the positioning hook 11, the positioning marker sleeve 12 and the guide wire 13 are connected to form an integral whole through the pressurized deformation of the positioning marker sleeve 12 to form the array of the concave pits 123 and the convex points 124, the product is firmly and reliably connected, the array of the concave pits 123 is used as the positioning marker 14 at the same time, and the processing technology is simplified. According to different embodiments of the present application, the pressurized deformation mode of the positioning marker sleeve 12 connecting the hook wire 111 and the guide wire 13 is limited to the convex interference fit in the illustrated embodiment, for example, after the positioning marker sleeve 12 is subjected to special treatment (such as etching, electrolysis, laser dotting or stamping process) to form the positioning marker 14, it is riveted with the hook wire 111 and the guide wire 13, and can also be fixedly connected to form an integral whole, and is convenient and fast, and has low processing difficulty. Referring again to Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the operation marker 15 on the proximal end of the guide wire 13 is used to display the position of the positioning hook 11, and can be made of conventional etching, electrolysis, laser dotting process, or can be made by the similar pressurized deformation process as the positioning marker 14.
[0026] Since the positioning wire 10 is composed of three sections of the positioning hook 11, the positioning marker sleeve 12 and the guide wire 13, the three sections can be made of the same or different materials and by the same or different processing techniques according to design requirements. For example, the positioning hook 11, which has high requirements on material properties, should be able to be folded into the needle tube, to be restored to the initial shape to hook the lesion, and the hook wire 111 should not be broken when the exposed guide wire 13 is pulled during the operation, so a high-performance material should be selected. The guide wire 13, which has low requirements on material properties, can be made of a general material, which can effectively reduce the cost compared to using a high-performance material for the whole positioning wire. For example, the positioning hook 11 is made of medical nickel-titanium alloy material, which is easy to deform and not easy to break, the positioning marker sleeve 12 is a stainless steel tube, and the guide wire 13 is made of a medical stainless steel wire material with high hardness, which is not easy to deform when the proximal end of the guide wire 13 is pinched to help the positioning hook 11 out of the needle tube. When the three sections are not connected, different processing techniques such as heat treatment and surface treatment can be performed on different parts to meet the design requirements of the corresponding parts of the positioning wire 10, and the processing technique is simple. In addition, the actual positioning wire 10 has different lengths such as 7, 10, 12 and 15 cm. If the positioning hook 11 is only used as a fixed-length universal material for batch processing, and then connected with a low-cost stainless steel guide wire 13 of different lengths, the material management cost can also be reduced.
[0027] According to different embodiments of the present application, when there are other pushing devices and the guide wire 13 does not need to play a boosting role, the guide wire 13 can be made of soft materials such as medical sutures, which are flexible and exposed to the outside of the body to prevent body movements from affecting the displacement of the positioning hook 11. In this case, as shown in FIG. 6, the positioning marker sleeve 12 can also have a second hole 125 locally formed in the area where the hook wire 111 and the guide wire 13 are fixedly connected by pressing and deforming to form a pit 123 and a protrusion 124. When the hook wire 111 and the guide wire 13 are pressed and deformed, the material returns to embed the protrusion into the second hole 125 to tighten, thereby increasing the connection firmness. Figure 4
[0028] The above only describes the preferred embodiments of the present application and is not intended to limit the present application. Any modifications, equivalent replacements and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
