Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical device technology, and in particular to a conductive mechanism for a multi-degree-of-freedom bipolar high-frequency electrosurgical unit and a multi-degree-of-freedom bipolar high-frequency electrosurgical unit. Background Technology
[0002] A high-frequency electrosurgical unit (HFOS) is an electrosurgical instrument that replaces mechanical scalpels for tissue cutting. It heats the tissue by delivering a high-frequency, high-voltage current generated at the effective electrode tip, achieving tissue separation and coagulation, thus achieving cutting and hemostasis. A bipolar HFOS delivers high-frequency electrical energy to the tissue through two electrode tips. The high-frequency current causes dehydration and coagulation of the blood vessels or tissue between the two electrode tips, achieving hemostasis, ablation, and dissection. Compared to a monopolar HFOS, the high-frequency current flows only between the two electrodes, making it safer, but its application is somewhat limited.
[0003] See Chinese utility model patent CN221285890U, filed on September 22, 2023, published on July 9, 2024. Currently, the execution end of bipolar high-frequency electrosurgical units used in surgery is usually fixed. When doctors use rigid bipolar high-frequency electrosurgical units to perform surgical operations in the abdominal or intestinal cavity, they need to move the high-frequency electrosurgical unit externally to achieve operations such as traction, cutting, and coagulation of human tissue. This type of bipolar high-frequency electrosurgical unit lacks flexibility, and the operable range of the high-frequency electrosurgical unit is limited, resulting in excessive traction on human tissue during surgery and easily causing significant collateral damage.
[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for an improved bipolar high-frequency electrosurgical unit to increase its degrees of freedom. Utility Model Content

[0025] (III) Beneficial Effects
[0026] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0027] In the conductive mechanism provided by this utility model, the first and second helical components, which are separated from each other, form a connecting tube, making the connecting tube flexible and easy to bend, which is beneficial to improving the degree of freedom of the bipolar high-frequency electrosurgical actuator. The inner tube, outer tube, connecting tube, first C-shaped half-tube, and second C-shaped half-tube are all coated with an insulating coating. The first and second helical components are separately arranged, as are the first and second C-shaped half-tubes, to avoid short circuits between the two electrodes. The first and second C-shaped half-tubes are connected by a T-shaped component, forming a stable tubular structure. The proximal ends of the first and second C-shaped half-tubes are inserted into a transition tube, which is connected to a transfer tube. An insulating film seals the distal end of the transition tube, the first C-shaped half-tube, the second C-shaped half-tube, the connecting tube, and the proximal end of the second electrode tube. When water is introduced into the transfer tube, it flows sequentially through the first C-shaped half-tube, the second C-shaped half-tube, the connecting tube, the inner tube, and the outer tube, cooling the electrodes. After the first C-shaped half tube and the second C-shaped half tube are connected to the power source respectively, high-frequency electrical energy is provided to the body tissue through the first electrode and the second electrode. The high-frequency current will cause the blood vessels or tissue between the first electrode and the second electrode to dehydrate and coagulate, thereby achieving the purpose of hemostasis.
[0028] The bipolar high-frequency electrosurgical unit provided by this utility model allows the user to perform surgical operations in the abdominal or intestinal cavity by simply moving a dial outside the body. This enables the entire swinging cannula, first electrode, and second electrode located inside the body to swing, thereby performing operations such as traction, cutting, and coagulation on human tissue. This improves the flexibility and operability of the high-frequency electrosurgical unit, reduces the frequency of external movement of the unit, and thus reduces the traction of the electrosurgical unit on human tissue during surgery, thereby reducing the occurrence of collateral damage.

[0050] Example 1
[0051] like Figures 1 to 8 As shown, this embodiment provides a bipolar high-frequency electrosurgical unit. The bipolar high-frequency electrosurgical unit includes a conductive mechanism, a first pull cord 11, a second pull cord 12, a dial wheel 2, a cord winding wheel assembly, a handle housing, a mounting sleeve 3, and a swing sleeve.
[0052] The conductive mechanism includes an insulating tube 51, an insulating film 52, a transition tube 53, a transfer tube 54, a first T-shaped member 55, a second T-shaped member 56, and a conductive member. The conductive component includes a first electrode tube 61, a second electrode tube 62, a connecting tube, a first C-shaped half-tube 63, and a second C-shaped half-tube 64, all coated with an insulating coating. The first electrode tube 61 includes a first tube segment and a second tube segment connected sequentially from near to far, with the diameter of the first tube segment being smaller than the diameter of the second tube segment. The second electrode tube 62 and the first insulating tube 51, arranged sequentially from near to far, are both sleeved on the first tube segment. The connecting tube has two parallel spiral grooves that surround the axial direction of the tubular conductive component. The two spiral grooves penetrate the connecting tube in both near and far directions, dividing the connecting tube into a first spiral component 65 and a second spiral component 66 that are separated from each other. The first C-shaped half-tube 63 has a first side and a second side extending in the C-shaped direction. The second C-shaped half-tube 64 also has a first side and a second side extending in the C-shaped direction. The recesses of the first C-shaped half-tube 63 and the second C-shaped half-tube 64 are arranged opposite to each other. The first side of the first C-shaped half-tube 64 abuts against the first corner of the first T-shaped member 55, the second side of the first C-shaped half-tube 63 abuts against the first corner of the second T-shaped member 56, the second side of the second C-shaped half-tube 64 abuts against the second corner of the second T-shaped member 56, the proximal end of the first spiral member 65 is fixedly connected to the distal end of the first C-shaped half-tube 63, and the distal end of the first spiral member 65 is fixed to the proximal end of the first electrode tube 61. The proximal end of the second spiral member 66 is fixedly connected to the distal end of the second C-shaped half tube 64, and the distal end of the second spiral member 66 is fixedly connected to the proximal end of the second electrode tube 62; the proximal ends of the first C-shaped half tube 63 and the second C-shaped half tube 64 are inserted into the transition tube 53, the transition tube 53 is connected to the adapter tube 54, and the insulating film 52 seals and covers the distal end of the transition tube 53, the first C-shaped half tube 63, the second C-shaped half tube 64, the connecting tube, and the proximal end of the second electrode tube 62.
[0053] In this conductive mechanism, the first spiral member 65 and the second spiral member 66, which are separated from each other, form a connecting tube. This makes the connecting tube flexible and easy to bend, which helps to improve the degree of freedom of the bipolar high-frequency electrosurgical actuator. The first electrode tube 61, the second electrode tube 62, the connecting tube, the first C-shaped half tube 63, and the second C-shaped half tube 64 are all coated with an insulating coating. Furthermore, the first spiral member 65 and the second spiral member 66 are separated, and the first C-shaped half tube 63 and the second C-shaped half tube 64 are also separated to avoid short circuits between the two electrodes. The first C-shaped half-tube 63 and the second C-shaped half-tube 64 are connected by a T-shaped fitting to form a stable tubular structure. The proximal ends of the first C-shaped half-tube 63 and the second C-shaped half-tube 64 are inserted into the transition tube 53, which is connected to the adapter tube 54. An insulating film 52 seals the distal end of the transition tube 53, the first C-shaped half-tube 63, the second C-shaped half-tube 64, the connecting tube, and the proximal end of the second electrode tube 62. When water is introduced into the adapter tube 54, it flows sequentially through the first C-shaped half-tube 63, the second C-shaped half-tube 64, the connecting tube, the second electrode tube 62, and the first electrode tube 61, cooling the electrodes. After the first C-shaped half-tube 63 and the second C-shaped half-tube 64 are connected to a power source, high-frequency electrical energy is supplied to the tissue through the first electrode tube 61 and the second electrode tube 62. This high-frequency current causes dehydration and coagulation of the blood vessels or tissue between the first electrode tube 61 and the second electrode tube 62, thereby achieving hemostasis.
[0054] The proximal end of the mounting sleeve 3 is mounted on the handle housing. The swing sleeve includes a connecting part and a conductive support part 42 connected sequentially from proximal to distal. The connecting part is rotatably connected to the distal end of the mounting sleeve 3 to form a swing shaft. The swing sleeve swings radially around the swing shaft in the mounting sleeve 3. The conductive element is inserted and supported in the mounting sleeve 3 and the swing sleeve. The distal end of the second electrode tube 62 extends out of the swing sleeve. The connecting tube is set at the rotational connection position between the swing sleeve and the mounting sleeve 3. The adapter tube 54 is located inside the handle housing. The dial 2 is rotatably mounted on the handle housing, with at least a portion of the dial 2 extending out of the handle housing. The rope winding wheel assembly is installed inside the handle housing, and the dial 2 is connected to the rope winding wheel assembly in a transmission connection. The first end of the first pull rope 11 and the first end of the second pull rope 12 are both connected to the conductive element support part 42 and located on opposite sides of the conductive element. The second end of the first pull rope 11 and the second end of the second pull rope 12 are both wound around the rope winding wheel assembly. The dial 2 drives the rope winding wheel assembly to release the second pull rope 12 forward while tightening the first pull rope 11 backward, causing the swing sleeve and the electrode to swing in the first direction. The dial 2 drives the rope winding wheel assembly to release the first pull rope 11 forward while tightening the second pull rope 12 backward, causing the swing sleeve and the electrode to swing in the second direction.
[0055] With this bipolar high-frequency electrosurgical unit, when the user performs surgery in the abdominal or intestinal cavity, the user only needs to turn the dial 2 externally to make the swinging cannula, the first electrode tube 61 and the second electrode tube 62 located inside the body swing together to perform operations such as traction, cutting and coagulation on human tissue. This improves the flexibility and operability of the high-frequency electrosurgical unit, reduces the frequency of the user moving the high-frequency electrosurgical unit externally, and thus reduces the traction of human tissue by the electrosurgical unit during the operation, thereby reducing the occurrence of collateral damage.
[0056] Preferably, an electrode needle is formed at the distal end of the second tube segment, and the electrode needle has a through hole communicating with the interior of the first electrode tube 61. This makes it easy for the electrode tip to puncture tissue for ablation and coagulation.
[0057] Preferably, the conductive component further includes a first connector 68 and a second connector 69 partially inserted into the adapter tube 54. The first end of the first connector 68 is located inside the adapter tube 54, and the second end of the first connector 68 is located outside the adapter tube 54. The first end of the second connector 69 is located inside the adapter tube 54, and the second end of the second connector 69 is located outside the adapter tube 54. Both the portions of the first connector 68 and the second connector 69 inserted into the adapter tube 54 are coated with an insulating coating. The first end of the first connector 68 is fixedly connected to the proximal end of the first C-shaped half-tube 63, and the first end of the second connector 69 is fixedly connected to the proximal end of the second C-shaped half-tube 64. Thus, the second ends of the first connector 68 and the second ends of the second connector 69 located outside the adapter tube 54 are easily connected to a power source.
[0058] Furthermore, in this embodiment, both the first connector 68 and the second connector 69 are strip-shaped pieces extending in the proximal direction, and the second end of the first connector 68 and the second end of the second connector 69 are both located near the adapter pipe 54.
[0059] Preferably, the distal end of the mounting sleeve 3 is provided with a first ear 31 and a second ear extending in the proximal direction, the first ear 31 and the second ear being arranged opposite to each other. The connecting part of the swing sleeve is a third ear 43 and a fourth ear extending in the proximal direction, provided at the proximal end of the conductive support part 42, the third ear 43 and the fourth ear being arranged opposite to each other. The first ear 31 and the third ear 43 are rotatably connected to form a swing shaft, and the second ear and the fourth ear are rotatably connected to form a swing shaft. The first pull rope 11 and the second pull rope 12 are both located between the first ear 31 and the second ear, and the first pull rope 11 and the second pull rope 12 are both located between the third ear 43 and the fourth ear. In this way, it is convenient for the pull rope to pull the swing sleeve to swing.
[0060] Specifically, in this embodiment, the first ear portion 31 is located outside the third ear portion 43, and the second ear portion is located outside the fourth ear portion. Optionally, the first ear portion 31 is located inside the third ear portion 43, and the second ear portion is located inside the fourth ear portion.
[0061] In this embodiment, a first sub-rotating shaft 32 is provided on the first ear 31, a second sub-rotating shaft is provided on the second ear, a first mounting hole is provided on the third ear 43, and a second mounting hole is provided on the fourth ear; the first sub-rotating shaft 32 is rotatably inserted into the first mounting hole, and the second sub-rotating shaft is rotatably inserted into the second mounting hole, both the first sub-rotating shaft 32 and the second sub-rotating shaft are located on the swing shaft. Thus, the structure of the swing sleeve and the mounting sleeve 3 being rotatably connected is simple. Optionally, a first sub-rotating shaft 32 is provided on the third ear 43, a second sub-rotating shaft is provided on the fourth ear, a first mounting hole is provided on the first ear 31, and a second mounting hole is provided on the second ear; the first sub-rotating shaft 32 is rotatably inserted into the first mounting hole, and the second sub-rotating shaft is rotatably inserted into the second mounting hole, both the first sub-rotating shaft 32 and the second sub-rotating shaft are located on the swing shaft.
[0062] To ensure stable installation of the conductive component, it is stably supported within the mounting sleeve 3. An assembly gap is formed between the conductive component and the mounting sleeve 3. Both the first pull rope 11 and the second pull rope 12 are accommodated within this gap. The first end of the first pull rope 11 extends forward through the assembly gap and connects to the conductive component support 42. The first end of the second pull rope 12 also extends forward through the assembly gap and connects to the conductive component support 42. The second end of the first pull rope 11 passes through the mounting sleeve 3 within the handle housing and is wound around the rope winding wheel assembly. Similarly, the second end of the second pull rope 12 passes through the mounting sleeve 3 within the handle housing and is wound around the rope winding wheel assembly. Thus, by utilizing the gap between the conductive component and the mounting sleeve 3 to accommodate the first pull rope 11 and the second pull rope 12, the structure becomes more compact.
[0063] Specifically, in this embodiment, the conductive support portion 42 is provided with a first mounting through hole 44 and a second mounting through hole 45 extending in the near-far direction. The first mounting through hole 44 and the second mounting through hole 45 are respectively located on both sides of the first electrode tube 61. The first mounting through hole 44 has a first through hole 34 portion and a second through hole portion that are connected sequentially from near to far and are coaxially arranged. The diameter of the first through hole 34 portion is smaller than the diameter of the second through hole portion. The first end of the first pull rope 11 has a first stop member, which is accommodated in the second through hole portion. The radial dimension of the second through hole is larger than the diameter of the first through hole 34. The first pull rope 11 passes through the second through hole and extends into the assembly gap. The second mounting through hole 45 has a third through hole and a fourth through hole that are connected sequentially from near to far and are coaxially arranged. The diameter of the third through hole is smaller than the diameter of the fourth through hole. The first end of the second pull rope 12 has a second stop, which is accommodated in the fourth through hole. The radial dimension of the second stop in the fourth through hole is larger than the diameter of the third through hole. The second pull rope 12 passes through the second through hole and extends into the assembly gap. Thus, since the radial dimension of the first stop member in the second through hole is larger than the diameter of the first through hole 34, when the rope wheel assembly releases the second pull rope 12 forward and tightens the first pull rope 11 backward, the first stop member abuts against the distal end of the first through hole 34, which can pull the swing sleeve to swing in the first direction; since the radial dimension of the second stop member in the fourth through hole is larger than the diameter of the third through hole, when the rope wheel assembly releases the first pull rope 11 forward and tightens the second pull rope 12 backward, the second stop member abuts against the distal end of the third through hole, which can pull the swing sleeve to swing in the second direction; and it facilitates the assembly of the first pull rope 11 and the second pull rope 12 on the conductive component support 42. Optionally, the first end of the first pull rope 11 is fixedly connected to the conductive component support 42, and the first end of the second pull rope 12 is fixedly connected to the conductive component support 42.
[0064] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the conductive component support portion 42 is limited to the outer peripheral wall of the distal end of the conductive component, restricting the conductive component from moving in the up-down and left-right directions; the proximal end of the mounting sleeve 3 is limited to the outer peripheral wall of the insulating tube 51, restricting the conductive component from moving in the up-down and left-right directions. This support and limiting connection of the conductive component achieves stable support within the mounting sleeve 3. Simultaneously, the limiting connection between the conductive component support portion 42 and the conductive component allows the conductive component support portion 42 to drive the distal end of the conductive component to swing together.
[0065] Furthermore, in this embodiment, both the mounting sleeve 3 and the swing sleeve are made of insulating material to prevent the conductive components from leaking electricity to the outside at undesirable locations. Furthermore, in this embodiment, the first electrode tube 61, the second electrode tube 62, the connecting tube, the first C-shaped half tube 63, the second C-shaped half tube 64, the first connector 68, and the second connector 69 are all made of metal.
[0066] Specifically, in this embodiment, the connecting tube is set at least corresponding to the position of the first ear 31 and the position of the third ear 43; or the connecting tube is set at least corresponding to the position of the second ear and the fourth ear.
[0067] In this embodiment, the rope winding wheel assembly includes a drive wheel 71, a first rope winding wheel 72, and a second rope winding wheel 73 installed in the handle housing. The first rope winding wheel 72 is located on the first side of the conductive element, and the second rope winding wheel 73 is located on the second side of the conductive element. The drive wheel 71 is located between the first rope winding wheel 72 and the second rope winding wheel 73. The first rope winding wheel 72 and the second rope winding wheel 73 are respectively drivenly connected to the drive wheel 71. The dial wheel 2 is drivenly connected to the drive wheel 71. The second end of the first pull rope 11 is wound around the first rope winding wheel 72, and the second end of the second pull rope 12 is wound around the second rope winding wheel 73.
[0068] Preferably, the drive wheel 71 is located below the conductive element, and the dial wheel 2 is located below the drive wheel 71, with the shaft of the dial wheel 2 fixedly connected to the shaft of the drive wheel 71. This results in a simple structure.
[0069] Preferably, the rope winding wheel assembly further includes a first transition wheel 74 and a second transition wheel 75. The first transition wheel 74 is rotatably mounted inside the handle housing and located on the first side of the conductive element, and the second transition wheel 75 is rotatably mounted inside the handle housing and located on the second side of the conductive element. The second end of the first pull rope 11 is wound sequentially around the first transition wheel 74 and the first winding wheel 72, and the second end of the second pull rope 12 is wound sequentially around the second transition wheel 75 and the second winding wheel 73.
[0070] Specifically, in this embodiment, the first side of the conductive element is the left side of the conductive element, and the second side of the conductive element is the right side of the conductive element; the first winding wheel 72, the second winding wheel 73, the first transition wheel 74 and the second transition wheel 75 are all placed horizontally, the first transition wheel 74 is located near the first winding wheel 72, and the second transition wheel 75 is located near the second winding wheel 73.
[0071] Preferably, in this embodiment, both the dial 2 and the rope winding assembly are located at the front end of the handle housing, and the adapter tube 54 is located at the rear side of the rope winding assembly, with the conductive component connected to the adapter tube 54. This results in a more compact structure.
[0072] The handle housing includes a fixed housing 81 and an actuating housing 82 arranged sequentially from near to far. The actuating housing 82 is rotatably connected to the distal end of the fixed housing 81. The proximal end of the mounting sleeve 3 passes through the actuating housing 82 and is mounted on the fixed housing 81. The dial 2 is rotatably mounted on the fixed housing 81, and the rope winding wheel assembly is mounted inside the fixed housing 81. The actuating housing 82 and the mounting sleeve 3 are coaxially arranged, and the actuating housing 82 and the mounting sleeve 3 are linked to rotate around the rotation axis of the actuating housing 82. The mounting sleeve 3 and the conductive component are also linked to rotate around the rotation axis of the actuating housing 82. Thus, when the actuating housing 82 rotates, it can drive the mounting sleeve 3 and the conductive component to rotate as a whole around the rotation axis of the actuating housing 82, further improving the flexibility of the high-frequency electrosurgical unit and increasing its operating range.
[0073] Preferably, the mounting sleeve 3 has a pin hole, and the transition tube 53 has a pin groove corresponding to the pin hole. The pin 83 on the actuating housing 82 passes through the pin hole and is inserted into the pin groove. In this way, the actuating housing 82 and the mounting sleeve 3 are linked to rotate around the rotation axis of the actuating housing 82, and the mounting sleeve 3 and the conductive component are linked to rotate around the rotation axis of the actuating housing 82.
[0074] Preferably, the near-end wall of the mounting sleeve 3 has a first through hole 34 and a second through hole. The second end of the first pull rope 11 passes through the first through hole 34 and is wound around the rope winding wheel assembly, and the second end of the second pull rope 12 passes through the second through hole and is wound around the rope winding wheel assembly. Both the first through hole 34 and the second through hole are strip-shaped holes extending circumferentially along the mounting sleeve 3. Further, the length of the first through hole 34 in the circumferential direction of the mounting sleeve 3 is 1 / 5 to 1 / 3 of the circumference of the mounting sleeve 3, and the length of the second through hole in the circumferential direction of the mounting sleeve 3 is 1 / 5 to 1 / 3 of the circumference of the mounting sleeve 3. In this way, when the housing 82 is turned to rotate the mounting sleeve 3, the first through hole 34 can avoid the first pull rope 11, and the second through hole can avoid the second pull rope 12.
[0075] The handle also includes a water pump 91, which is installed inside a fixed housing 81. The fixed housing 81 has an inlet 92 for communication with a liquid storage device. The inlet 92 is connected to the inlet of the water pump 91, and the adapter pipe 54 is connected to the outlet of the water pump 91. Thus, by housing the water pump 91 within the fixed housing 81, the water pump 91 is less prone to damage, improving the portability of the high-frequency electrosurgical unit. Furthermore, the number of external devices required to work with the high-frequency electrosurgical unit is reduced, thereby minimizing the space occupied by external devices.
[0076] The fixed housing 81 includes a longitudinal housing portion and a transverse housing portion connected sequentially from bottom to top. A longitudinal cavity is formed in the longitudinal housing portion, and a transverse cavity is formed in the transverse housing portion that communicates with the longitudinal cavity. The water pump 91 is accommodated in the longitudinal cavity and fixedly connected to the longitudinal housing portion. The proximal end of the mounting sleeve 3 is inserted into the transverse cavity and connected to the transverse housing portion. The adapter pipe 54 is installed in the transverse cavity.
[0077] More preferably, the longitudinal shell portion and the transverse shell portion are connected to form a T-shape, and the included angle between the longitudinal shell portion and the transverse shell portion is 90° to 130°. This handle shell design is ergonomic, making the user's grip on the handle more comfortable and convenient to operate.
[0078] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the rope-winding wheel assembly is installed in the transverse cavity and located on the front side of the longitudinal shell, and the dial wheel 2 is installed on the front side of the longitudinal shell, with at least a portion of the dial wheel 2 extending forward out of the longitudinal shell. This results in a compact structure and facilitates user operation of the dial wheel 2.
