[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0012] This invention comprises an outer mandrel and an inner mandrel, with the inner mandrel inserted into a groove inside the outer mandrel. This allows for the use of the larger-diameter outer mandrel for medical procedures such as fluid drainage when the inner mandrel is fully inserted into or removed from the outer mandrel. Simultaneously, when the inner mandrel is removed from the outer mandrel and used alone, it forms a smaller mandrel for medical procedures such as puncture. Furthermore, the partial insertion of the inner mandrel into the outer mandrel allows for the use of mandrels with different diameters at both ends, thus improving the flexibility of mandrel use.

[0013] This invention features reinforcing ribs on the outer side of the inner mandrel, with multiple reinforcing ribs arranged in a circular array. The inner wall of the insertion groove of the outer mandrel has limiting grooves that slide and engage with the reinforcing ribs, and the number of limiting grooves is the same as the number of reinforcing ribs. This design improves the structural strength of the inner mandrel by providing reinforcing ribs on the outer side of the inner mandrel. At the same time, when the inner mandrel is partially inserted into the outer mandrel, it effectively prevents the inner mandrel from rotating radially relative to the outer mandrel, thus improving the stability of the inner mandrel during puncture.

[0014] This utility model features a locking groove inside the connecting seat, and a locking plate inside the locking groove via a locking bracket. One end of the locking bracket slides through the upper wall of the connecting seat and is threadedly connected to a screw outside the connecting seat. This allows the locking bracket and locking plate to be moved and adjusted by rotating the screw. When the locking plate is pressed against the outer wall of the inner mandrel, it can lock the inner mandrel inserted into the outer mandrel, which helps to improve the stability of the inner mandrel when inserted into the outer mandrel.

[0021] 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.

[0022] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 In this embodiment of the present invention, a nickel-titanium mandrel includes a mandrel body, which includes an outer mandrel 1 and an inner mandrel 2. The outer mandrel 1 and the inner mandrel 2 may be made of nickel-titanium alloy. One end of the outer mandrel 1 is provided with a connecting seat 3, and one end of the connecting seat 3 is also provided with a tapered end 7. The outer mandrel 1, the tapered end 7, and the connecting seat 3 are all provided with insertion grooves 5 that cooperate with the insertion of the outer mandrel 1. This allows the outer mandrel 1 with a larger diameter to be used for medical operations such as fluid drainage when the inner mandrel 2 is fully inserted into or removed from the outer mandrel 1. At the same time, when the inner mandrel 2 is removed from the outer mandrel 1 and used alone, it can form a smaller mandrel for medical operations such as puncture. Moreover, when the inner mandrel 2 is partially inserted into the outer mandrel 1, it can form a mandrel with different diameters at both ends, which improves the flexibility of the mandrel.

[0023] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, in order to lock the inner spindle 2 inserted into the outer core rod 1, a locking groove 8 is provided in the connecting seat 3, and a locking pressure plate 9 is provided in the locking groove 8 through the locking bracket 13. One end of the locking bracket 13 slides through the upper wall of the connecting seat 3 and is threadedly connected to the screw 14 outside the connecting seat 3. One end of the screw 14 is vertically rotated on the upper side of the connecting seat 3 through the bearing 12, and a threaded hole 15 is provided in the middle of one end of the locking bracket 13, which is threadedly engaged with the screw 14. The locking bracket 13 is a C-shaped bracket, and the locking bracket 13 is provided through the guide sliding hole 10 in the inner wall of the connecting seat 3, so that the locking bracket 13 and the locking pressure plate 9 can be moved and adjusted by rotating the screw 14. When the locking pressure plate 9 is pressed on the outer wall of the inner core rod 2, the inner core rod 2 inserted into the outer core rod 1 can be locked, which is beneficial to improving the stability of the inner core rod 2 inserted into the outer core rod 1.

[0024] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in order to improve the stability of the inner mandrel during puncture, the outer side of the inner mandrel 2 is provided with reinforcing ribs 4, and multiple reinforcing ribs 4 are arranged in a ring array. The inner wall of the insertion groove 5 of the outer mandrel 1 is provided with limiting grooves 6 that slide and engage with the reinforcing ribs 4, and the number of limiting grooves 6 is the same as that of the reinforcing ribs 4. This improves the structural strength of the inner mandrel 2 by providing reinforcing ribs 4 on the outer side of the inner mandrel 2. At the same time, when the inner mandrel 2 is partially inserted into the outer mandrel 1, it effectively prevents the inner mandrel 2 from rotating radially relative to the outer mandrel 1, which facilitates the improvement of the stability of the inner mandrel during puncture.

[0025] like Figure 2 As shown, in order to improve the stability of the inner mandrel 2 locked inside the outer mandrel 1, an arc-shaped pressure groove 11 is provided on the lower side of the locking pressure plate 9, and the inner wall of the arc-shaped pressure groove 11 is provided with multiple anti-slip ribs, which increases the contact area and anti-slip properties between the lower side of the locking pressure plate 9 and the outside of the inner mandrel 2, which is beneficial to improving the stability of the inner mandrel 2 locked inside the outer mandrel 1.
