Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of medical device technology, specifically to a heating device for performing thermal ablation in the intestine. Background Technology
[0002] Studies have found that applying thermal ablation to the intestinal mucosa at a safe temperature reduces its activity, which helps decrease the absorption of fat by the intestinal mucosa, thus achieving a weight loss effect for obese patients.
[0003] Existing medical devices for performing intestinal thermal ablation have the following drawbacks:
[0004] First: The resistance wire used to heat the water is soldered to the power supply wire with a single wire end. Because the wire end is small, it is not only inconvenient to solder, but it is also easy to fall off after soldering.
[0005] Second: During the expansion of the water-storage balloon, the inner tube inside the balloon, which is used to install the power cord, will bend and deform to a certain extent, affecting the arrangement of the power cord in the inner tube.
[0006] Third: The thermocouple used to monitor the water temperature inside the balloon is located on one side of the balloon, so the monitoring data is not accurate enough. Utility Model Content
[0007] The main objective of this application is to provide a heating device for performing thermal ablation in the intestine, aiming to solve the aforementioned technical problems.
[0008] The technical solution adopted in this application is as follows:
[0009] A heating device for performing thermal ablation in the intestine, comprising:
[0010] A sheath, wherein an inner tube is provided inside the sheath, and a heating electrode and a temperature measuring electrode are provided in the inner tube;
[0011] The capsule is disposed on the distal outer wall of the sheath. A heating wire is disposed inside the capsule. Both ends of the heating wire are integrally formed with spiral electrode connectors. The electrode connectors are covered inside the sheath and are welded and fixed to the heating electrode at multiple points.
[0012] The injection tube is located at the proximal end of the sheath, and an injection channel is formed between the inner tube and the sheath. One end of the injection channel is connected to the injection tube, and the other end of the injection channel is connected to the capsule.
[0013] Optionally, the inner tube located within the capsule has a spiral-shaped support guide wire arranged along the front-back direction of the capsule.
[0014] Optionally, a spiral linear thermocouple is provided on the outer wall of the inner tube along the front-back direction of the bladder, and the two ends of the linear thermocouple are connected to the temperature measuring electrode.
[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this application are:
[0016] First: The heating device proposed in this application for performing thermal ablation in the intestine is provided with spiral electrode connectors at both ends of the heating wire. The electrode connectors are wrapped inside the inner tube, and the heating electrode is inserted into the spiral electrode connectors to form multi-point welding. This not only facilitates welding, but also effectively increases the firmness of the connection between the heating wire and the heating electrode through multiple welding positions.
[0017] Second: The heating device proposed in this application for performing thermal ablation in the intestine, by setting a spiral support guide wire in the inner wall of the inner tube located in the capsule, reduces the compression, bending and deformation of the inner tube during the expansion of the capsule by water injection, so that the inner tube is kept as straight as possible and does not affect the cable arrangement in the inner tube.
[0018] Third: The heating device proposed in this application for performing thermal ablation in the intestine can continuously monitor the water temperature inside the capsule by setting a spiral linear thermocouple on the outer wall of the inner tube, which helps to improve the accuracy of water temperature monitoring.

[0027] See attached document Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown in the illustration, this application provides a heating device for performing thermal ablation in the intestine, comprising a sheath 1, a capsule 2, an inner tube 3, and an injection tube. The capsule 2 is disposed on the distal outer wall of the sheath 1, and the capsule 2 and the sheath 1 are an integral structure. The capsule 2 can be filled with liquid (such as water), allowing the capsule 2 to expand and adhere to the intestinal mucosa. The inner tube 3 is disposed inside the sheath 1, and a water injection channel 5 is formed between the sheath 1 and the inner tube 3. The injection tube is disposed on the proximal outer wall of the sheath 1, and one end of the water injection channel 5 is connected to the injection tube, and the other end is connected to the capsule 2. Water is injected into the capsule 2 through the injection tube and the water injection channel 5.
[0028] In the above description, the inner tube 3 is equipped with heating electrodes 8 and temperature measuring electrodes 11. The heating electrodes 8 and temperature measuring electrodes 11 are connected to corresponding components by power wires extending from the tail end of the inner tube 3. The capsule 2 is equipped with a heating wire 6. Both ends of the heating wire 6 are integrally formed with spiral electrode connectors 7. The electrode connectors 7 are sealed and enclosed in the inner tube 3. The heating electrodes 8 are inserted into the spiral electrode connectors 7, and the two are fixed by multi-point welding.
[0029] It is easy to understand that by setting spiral electrode connectors 7 at both ends of the heating wire 6, the electrode connectors 7 are wrapped inside the inner tube 3, and the heating electrode 8 is inserted into the spiral electrode connectors 7, forming a multi-point weld. This not only facilitates welding, but also the multiple welding positions can effectively increase the firmness of the connection between the heating wire and the heating electrode 8.
[0030] Furthermore, in this embodiment, see Figure 2 As shown, the inner tube 3 located inside the capsule 2 has a spiral-shaped support guide wire 9 arranged along the front-back direction of the capsule 2 within its tube wall. It is easy to imagine that without the support guide wire 9, during the expansion of the capsule 2 after filling with fluid, the capsule 2 expands radially quite significantly. Since the capsule 2 is fixedly connected to the inner tube 3 at both ends, when the capsule 2 expands radially, the ends of the inner tube 3 inside the capsule 2 are stretched, resulting in a bent state in the middle, which affects the arrangement of cables in the inner tube 3. Therefore, by setting the support guide wire 9, the support guide wire 9 can maintain the shape of the inner tube 3 to a certain extent, so that the capsule 2 relies mostly on its own deformation to complete the expansion during the expansion process, reducing the degree of bending deformation of the inner tube 3 and preventing it from significantly affecting the arrangement of cables in the inner tube 3.
[0031] At the same time, continue as Figure 2 As shown, a spiral linear thermocouple 10 is arranged on the outer wall of the inner tube 3 along the front-back direction of the capsule 2, and the two ends of the linear thermocouple 10 are connected to the temperature measuring electrode 11. It can be imagined that by arranging the spiral linear thermocouple 10 along the inner tube 3 inside the capsule 2, the water temperature inside the capsule 2 can be measured more accurately, thus improving the accuracy of monitoring.
[0032] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of this application and is not intended to limit this application. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this application should be included within the protection scope of this application.
