[0037] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions of this utility model, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort should fall within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0038] It should be noted that the terms "first" and "second" in the following embodiments are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of indicated technical features. Therefore, features defined with "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the stated features. In the description of this utility model, "a plurality of" means two or more, unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0039] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figures 1 to 7 As shown, this utility model provides a dual-channel expander, which includes a tube 1, a first partition 2, a second partition 3, a head 4, and a tail 5.

[0040] Specifically, tube 1 is the main body of the dual-channel expander. Tube 1 is constructed as a hollow tube, forming a guide wire cavity inside. First partition 2 and second partition 3 are disposed in the guide wire cavity and are both separate from tube 1. First partition 2 and second partition 3 both extend in a direction parallel to the central axis of tube 1, dividing the guide wire cavity into a first receiving cavity 11, a second receiving cavity 12 and a third receiving cavity 13 distributed radially, wherein the second receiving cavity 12 and the third receiving cavity 13 are located on both sides of the first receiving cavity 11. The head 4 and tail 5 are respectively disposed at both ends of the tube 1 to seal the guide wire cavity inside the tube 1. The head 4 is pointed and has a first through hole 41 and a second through hole 42. The tail 5 has a third through hole 51 and a fourth through hole 52. The first through hole 41, the first accommodating cavity 11 and the third through hole 51 are connected to form a working channel for the guide wire to pass through. The second through hole 42, the second accommodating cavity 12 and the fourth through hole 52 are connected to form another working channel for another guide wire to pass through. The third accommodating cavity 13 is relatively closed and no guide wire is passed through it. It is mainly used to reduce the space of the first accommodating cavity 11 and avoid the first accommodating cavity 11 being too large, which would increase the difficulty of passing through the guide wire.

[0041] According to the above structural design, the hollow tube 1 constitutes the main body of the dual-channel expander, which can greatly reduce the weight of the dual-channel expander, reduce the production cost of the dual-channel expander, reduce the difficulty of operation for the operator, and reduce the workload of the operator.

[0042] It is understood that in the above embodiments, the first receiving cavity 11 and the second receiving cavity 12 are used for threading the guide wire in the dual-channel expander, and the third receiving cavity 13 is not used for threading the guide wire. However, this is not a limitation on the inventive concept of this application. For example, in some alternative embodiments, the first receiving cavity 11 and the third receiving cavity 13 may be used for threading the guide wire, or the second receiving cavity 12 and the third receiving cavity 13 may be used for threading the guide wire. For another example, only the first partition 2 may be provided in the guide wire cavity to separate the first receiving cavity 11 and the second receiving cavity 12, etc.

[0043] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 7 As shown, the two ends of the first partition 2 are respectively inserted into the head 4 and the tail 5, and the two ends of the second partition 3 are also respectively inserted into the head 4 and the tail 5, so as to better fix the position of the first partition 2 and the second partition 3, and facilitate positioning when installing the first partition 2 and the second partition 3.

[0044] Furthermore, the width of both ends of the first partition 2 is reduced, forming two first insertion portions 21 at both ends, which are respectively inserted into the head 4 and the tail 5. Similarly, the width of both ends of the second partition 3 is also reduced, forming two second insertion portions 31 at both ends, which are respectively inserted into the head 4 and the tail 5.

[0045] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figures 4 to 6 As shown, the end of the head 4 near the tube 1 is constructed as a cylindrical structure, and the end away from the tube 1 is constructed as a conical structure, with a chamfered tip. The first perforation 41 extends parallel to the central axis of the head 4, and its central axis coincides with both the central axis of the head 4 and the central axis of the tube 1. The second perforation 42 also extends parallel to the central axis of the head 4, but is offset from the central axis of the head 4.

[0046] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figures 4 to 6 As shown, a first groove 43 is recessed at one end of the head 4 near the tube 1. A first guide surface 431 is formed on the groove wall of the first groove 43. The groove opening of the first groove 43 extends to the end face of the head 4, and the bottom of the first groove 43 connects to the first through hole 41. On a plane perpendicular to the central axis of the head 4, the opening area of ​​the first groove 43 is larger than the diameter of the first through hole 41, and the vertical projection of the first groove 43 can completely cover the vertical projection of the first through hole 41.

[0047] Similarly, a second groove 44 is recessed at one end of the head 4 near the tube 1. A second guide surface 441 is formed on the groove wall of the second groove 44. The groove opening of the second groove 44 extends to the end face of the head 4, and the bottom of the second groove 44 communicates with the second through hole 42. On a plane perpendicular to the central axis of the head 4, the opening area of ​​the second groove 44 is larger than the diameter of the second through hole 42, and the vertical projection of the second groove 44 can completely cover the vertical projection of the second through hole 42.

[0048] Furthermore, the first guide surface 431 and the second guide surface 441 are constructed as curved surfaces.

[0049] Preferably, the aforementioned surface is a sphere or an ellipsoid, or something similar to a sphere or an ellipsoid.

[0050] In other embodiments, the first guide surface 431 and the second guide surface 441 may also be configured as planes.

[0051] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, both the first perforation 41 and the second perforation 42 are constructed as circular holes. On a plane perpendicular to the central axis of the tube 1, the vertical projections of the first perforation 41 and the second perforation 42 are circular. The vertical projection of the first perforation 41 is tangent or almost tangent to the vertical projections of the first partition 2 and the second partition 3. The vertical projection of the first partition 2 is tangent or almost tangent to the vertical projection of the second perforation 42. This is to make the first partition 2 as close as possible to the periphery of the first perforation 41 and the second perforation 42, thereby reducing the space of the first receiving cavity 11 and the second receiving cavity 12 and reducing the difficulty of threading the guide wire into the first receiving cavity 11 and the second receiving cavity 12.

[0052] In one embodiment, the tube 1, head 4 and tail 5 can be fixedly connected together by welding. The outer diameter of the tube 1 is set to about 7 mm, the tube wall thickness is set to about 0.5 mm, the thickness of the first partition 2 and the second partition 3 is set to about 0.5 mm, the diameter of the first through hole 41, the second through hole 42, the third through hole 51 and the fourth through hole 52 is set to about 1.6 mm, and the total length of the dual-channel expander is set to about 250 mm.

[0053] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.

[0054] Furthermore, it should be understood that although this specification describes embodiments, not every embodiment contains only one independent technical solution. This narrative style of the specification is merely for clarity. Those skilled in the art should consider the specification as a whole, and the technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other embodiments that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
