Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of medical device technology, and more specifically, to an omnidirectional magnetic gripper. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of laparoscopic surgery, it has been widely used and highly regarded by both doctors and patients due to its significant advantages, such as smaller incisions, less pain, faster recovery, less bleeding, and minimal impact on postoperative appearance. During laparoscopic surgery, a clear and sufficient surgical field plays a crucial role in the precision and success of the procedure.

[0003] When faced with different surgical sites and complex anatomical structures, delicate operations such as cutting and dissecting specific tissues and organs are often required. This process relies heavily on the effective traction of surrounding tissues to expand and expose the ideal surgical field. However, while existing magnetic traction devices have achieved some degree of remote control of tissue traction via magnetic force, they have significant limitations. The clamps of these devices are designed as fixed structures, unable to be adjusted or oscillated. This fixed characteristic makes it difficult to flexibly change the traction angle and direction when faced with the complex and varied anatomical shapes of surgical sites and the traction needs of different tissues. It also makes it impossible to precisely adapt to the specific requirements of tissue traction position and force direction in various surgical scenarios. Utility Model Content

[0005] The embodiments of this application are implemented as follows:

[0006] This application provides an omnidirectional magnetic gripper, including a chuck assembly, a handle assembly, and a swing adjustment assembly.

[0017] The omnidirectional magnetic gripper provided in this application includes a gripper assembly, a handle assembly, and a swing adjustment assembly. The handle assembly drives the gripper assembly to perform clamping motion. The gripper assembly and the handle assembly are connected by a sleeve, which includes a rotatably connected connecting section and a gripper mounting section. The swing adjustment assembly is mounted on the sleeve and drives the gripper mounting section to swing relative to the connecting section.

Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this application based on the specific circumstances.

[0028] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2This embodiment provides an omnidirectional magnetic gripper 100, including a gripper assembly 110, a handle assembly 120, and a swing adjustment assembly 130. The handle assembly 120 drives the gripper assembly 110 to perform gripping movements. The gripper assembly 110 and the handle assembly 120 are connected by a sleeve 140. The sleeve 140 includes a rotatably connected connecting section 141 and a gripper mounting section 142. The swing adjustment assembly 130 is disposed on the sleeve 140, and the swing adjustment assembly 130 drives the gripper mounting section 142 to swing relative to the connecting section 141.

[0029] Specifically, when using the omnidirectional magnetic gripper 100 of this application, the omnidirectional magnetic gripper 100 is inserted into the patient's body through a suitable laparoscopic channel. During insertion, care should be taken to maintain the stability of the gripper's direction to avoid unnecessary damage to the patient's internal tissues. Using the visualization system of the laparoscopy, the handle assembly 120 is manipulated to slowly bring the clamp assembly 110 closer to the target tissue to be pulled. At this time, the handle assembly 120 can be used to initially adjust the position and posture of the clamp, roughly aligning it with the target tissue. When the clamp assembly 110 is close to the target tissue, the handle assembly 120 is operated to close the clamp assembly 110, gripping the target tissue. During the gripping process, the swing adjustment assembly 130 is operated to swing the clamp mounting section 142 relative to the connecting section 141, thereby precisely adjusting the pulling angle and direction of the clamp assembly 110.

[0030] The omnidirectional magnetic gripper 100 provided in this application includes a gripper assembly 110, a handle assembly 120, and a swing adjustment assembly 130. The handle assembly 120 drives the gripper assembly 110 to perform gripping movements. The gripper assembly 110 and the handle assembly 120 are connected by a sleeve 140, which includes a rotatably connected connecting section 141 and a gripper mounting section 142. The swing adjustment assembly 130 is mounted on the sleeve 140, and drives the gripper mounting section 142 to swing relative to the connecting section 141. This allows the gripper assembly 110 to flexibly change the traction angle and direction, overcoming the limitations of fixed grippers in existing magnetic traction devices. It can precisely adjust the traction angle and direction according to the complex and varied anatomical morphology of the surgical site and the traction needs of different tissues, meeting the special requirements for tissue traction position and force direction in various surgical scenarios, and greatly improving the accuracy of surgical operations. Moreover, because the clamp angle can be flexibly adjusted, tissues can be pulled more quickly in laparoscopic surgery, expanding and exposing the ideal surgical field of view, reducing operation time, lowering surgical risks, and helping to improve the overall efficiency and quality of the operation, thus providing better guarantees for the patient's surgical success and postoperative recovery.

[0031] In one possible embodiment of this application, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the connecting section 141 and the chuck mounting section 142 are rotatably connected by the first rotating shaft 143. The swing adjustment assembly 130 includes a connecting rod 131 disposed in the sleeve 140 and an adjusting nut 132 sleeved on the sleeve 140. The adjusting nut 132 is threadedly connected to the connecting rod 131. The distal end of the connecting rod 131 is rotatably connected to the chuck mounting section 142 by the second rotating shaft 133. The adjusting nut 132 drives the connecting rod 131 to slide axially, thereby driving the chuck mounting section 142 to rotate around the first rotating shaft 143.

[0032] Specifically, when the angle of the clamp needs to be adjusted during surgery, the operator can do so by operating the swing adjustment assembly 130. Specifically, the clamp mounting section 142 and the connecting section 141 are rotatably connected via a first rotating shaft 143. The swing adjustment assembly 130 includes a connecting rod 131 disposed within a sleeve 140 and an adjusting nut 132 sleeved on the sleeve 140. The adjusting nut 132 is threadedly connected to the connecting rod 131, and the distal end of the connecting rod 131 is rotatably connected to the clamp mounting section 142 via a second rotating shaft 133. When the adjusting nut 132 is rotated, due to the threaded connection, the connecting rod 131 slides axially within the sleeve 140. The rotatable connection between the distal end of the connecting rod 131 and the clamp mounting section 142 causes the clamp mounting section 142 to rotate around the first rotating shaft 143 during the sliding of the connecting rod 131, thereby realizing the swing of the clamp assembly 110, which allows for flexible adjustment of the traction angle and direction according to surgical needs.

[0033] In one possible embodiment of this application, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the inner wall of the sleeve 140 is also provided with an axial limiting strip 144, which is engaged with the connecting rod 131.

[0034] Specifically, the inner wall of the sleeve 140 is also provided with an axial limiting strip 144. The axial limiting strip 144 is engaged with the connecting rod 131 to limit the connecting rod 131 to slide only along the extension direction of the axial limiting strip 144. When the adjusting nut 132 is rotated, the connecting rod 131 will not rotate with the adjusting nut 132 to ensure the stable adjustment of the swing adjustment component 130.

[0035] In one possible embodiment of this application, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, a push rod 150 is provided inside the sleeve 140. The push rod 150 is driven by the handle assembly 120 to push the chuck assembly 110 to open or close.

[0036] Furthermore, the handle assembly 120 includes a fixed handle 121 and an operating handle 122 rotatably connected via a third pivot 123. The chuck assembly 110 includes a first jaw 111 and a second jaw 112 rotatably connected to the first jaw 111. The operating handle 122 is connected to the proximal end of the push rod 150, and the distal end of the push rod 150 is used to abut against the second jaw 112. The proximal end of the connecting section 141 is connected to the fixed handle 121, and the distal end of the chuck mounting section 142 is connected to the first jaw 111.

[0037] Specifically, when using the omnidirectional magnetic gripper 100 of this application, the omnidirectional magnetic gripper 100 is inserted into the patient's body through a suitable laparoscopic channel. During insertion, care should be taken to maintain the stability of the gripper's direction to avoid unnecessary damage to the patient's internal tissues. Using the visualization system of the laparoscopy, the handle assembly 120 is manipulated to slowly bring the clamp assembly 110 closer to the target tissue to be pulled. At this time, the handle assembly 120 can be used to initially adjust the position and posture of the clamp to roughly align it with the target tissue. When the clamp assembly 110 is close to the target tissue, the handle assembly 120 is operated to close the clamp assembly 110. That is, by controlling the operating handle 122 to rotate towards the fixed handle 121, the push rod 150 slides distally to apply a pushing force to the second jaw 112, thereby causing the first jaw 111 and the second jaw 112 to open relative to each other to clamp the target tissue. The operating handle 122 is then controlled to rotate away from the fixed handle 121 so that the first jaw 111 and the second jaw 112 clamp the target tissue. During the clamping process, the swing adjustment component 130 is operated to drive the chuck mounting section 142 to swing relative to the connecting section 141, thereby precisely adjusting the pulling angle and direction of the chuck assembly 110.

[0038] In one possible embodiment of this application, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the sleeve 140 and the fixed handle 121 are rotatably connected by a rotating adjustment member 160, which drives the sleeve 140 to rotate around its own axis.

[0039] Specifically, when the angle of the clamp needs to be adjusted during surgery, the swing adjustment component 130 and the rotation adjustment component 160 are operated according to the requirements of the surgical field and the anatomical structure around the target tissue. First, the rotation adjustment component 160 is rotated to make the sleeve 140 rotate around its own axis, driving the clamp assembly 110 to rotate to the appropriate position; then, the swing adjustment component 130 is operated. When the adjusting nut 132 is rotated, the connecting rod 131 will slide axially within the sleeve 140 due to the threaded connection. The rotational connection between the distal end of the connecting rod 131 and the clamp mounting section 142 causes the clamp mounting section 142 to rotate around the first rotating axis 143 during the sliding of the connecting rod 131, thereby realizing the swing of the clamp assembly 110, which can flexibly adjust the traction angle and direction according to the surgical requirements.

[0040] In one possible embodiment of this application, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the distal end of the chuck mounting section 142 has a first clamping arm 1421 and a second clamping arm 1422 disposed opposite to each other, and the chuck assembly 110 is clamped by the first clamping arm 1421 and the second clamping arm 1422.

[0041] Furthermore, a push block 151 is provided on the push rod 150. By operating the handle 122, the push rod 150 is driven to move away from the chuck assembly 110, and the push block 151 pushes the first clamping arm 1421 and the second clamping arm 1422 to open.

[0042] Specifically, when using the omnidirectional magnetic gripper 100 of this application, the omnidirectional magnetic gripper 100 is inserted into the patient's body through a suitable laparoscopic channel. During insertion, care should be taken to maintain the stability of the gripper's direction to avoid unnecessary damage to the patient's internal tissues. Using the visualization system of the laparoscopy, the handle assembly 120 is manipulated to slowly bring the clamp assembly 110 closer to the target tissue to be pulled. At this time, the handle assembly 120 can be used to initially adjust the position and posture of the clamp to roughly align it with the target tissue. When the clamp assembly 110 is close to the target tissue, the handle assembly 120 is operated to close the clamp assembly 110. That is, by controlling the operating handle 122 to rotate towards the fixed handle 121, the push rod 150 slides distally to apply a pushing force to the second jaw 112, thereby causing the first jaw 111 and the second jaw 112 to open relative to each other to clamp the target tissue. The operating handle 122 is then controlled to rotate away from the fixed handle 121 so that the first jaw 111 and the second jaw 112 clamp the target tissue. After the clamp assembly 110 clamps the target tissue, the push rod 150 is driven away from the clamp assembly 110 by the operating handle 122. The push block 151 pushes the first clamping arm 1421 and the second clamping arm 1422 to open, so that the clamp assembly 110 is disengaged from the clamp mounting section 142. Then, the omnidirectional magnetic gripper 100 without the clamp assembly 110 is taken out. The external magnetic attraction and traction device magnetically attracts the clamp assembly 110 to adjust the clamping and traction angle of the clamp assembly 110.

[0043] Furthermore, a locking button 124 is also provided on the fixed handle 121. When the locking button 124 is engaged with the operating handle 122, the operating handle 122 can only rotate toward the fixed handle 121. This ensures that when the handle assembly 120 drives the chuck assembly 110 to clamp or move its position, there will be no accidental contact that would cause the chuck assembly 110 to disengage. This ensures the operational stability of the all-around magnetic gripper 100.

[0044] Furthermore, the chuck assembly 110 also includes a magnetic suction member 113 disposed on the first gripper 111, which magnetically connects the chuck assembly 110 and the chuck mounting section 142 so that after the clamping and pulling operation is completed, the chuck assembly 110 can be magnetically attracted to the chuck mounting section 142 to remove the chuck assembly 110.

[0045] It should be noted that the magnetic suction component 113 can also be magnetically connected to an external magnetic traction device to achieve better exposure of the surgical field.

[0046] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this application and is not intended to limit this application. Various modifications and variations can be made to this application by those skilled in the art. 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.
