Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of medical device technology, specifically relating to an elastic cord switching mechanism for an anorectal ligator. Background Technology
[0002] The rectal ligator is an important medical device used to treat diseases such as hemorrhoids. The main working principle of the rectal ligator is to form a tight loop around the diseased tissue using the ligating head, thereby blocking blood flow to the diseased tissue, causing it to necrose and eventually detach. The advantages of using this device for ligation are its ease of operation and low probability of complications.
[0003] In the process of ligation using a banding device, multiple lesions typically need to be ligated. Looking at the various existing solutions for anorectal banding devices, most can only be used for a single ligation. When ligating multiple hemorrhoid lesions in the same patient, multiple banding devices are required, resulting in wasted resources and significantly increased treatment costs. Therefore, it is necessary to improve existing technologies to address these technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0024] The technical solution of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to specific embodiments. However, those skilled in the art will understand that the embodiments described below are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments, and are only used to illustrate this utility model, and should not be regarded as limiting the scope of this utility model. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model. Where specific conditions are not specified in the embodiments, conventional conditions or conditions recommended by the manufacturer shall be followed. Where the manufacturers of reagents or instruments are not specified, they are all conventional products that can be purchased commercially.
[0025] like Figure 1-4 As shown, an elastic cord switching mechanism for an anorectal ligator includes a housing 1, on which a first mounting plate 2 is slidably mounted. The first mounting plate 2 is driven to move by a first driving component 3. The first mounting plate 2 is provided with two or more first hooks 4. Each of the first hooks 4 has a first notch 401 at its bottom. The first hooks 4 are used to hook the first knot 501 of the elastic cord 5. In specific use, the first knot 501 of the elastic cord 5 is hung on the first hook 4.
[0026] The housing 1 is rotatably equipped with a second hook 7 driven to rotate by a second drive assembly 8. The second hook 7 is located below the first notch 401. When a first hook 4 is above the second hook 7, as the second hook 7 rotates, the second hook 7 passes through the first notch 401 and hooks the first knot 501 on the first hook 4. Then, other operations such as tightening and cutting the line are performed. After the operation is completed, the first mounting plate 2 is moved by the first drive assembly 3 to move the other first hook 4 above the second hook 7. The second hook 7 is controlled to rotate and hook the elastic line 5 on the first hook 4 above it, thereby realizing the switching of the elastic line 5.
[0027] In this embodiment, the first driving assembly 3 includes a rack 301 slidably mounted on the housing 1. A sliding groove is provided on the inner wall of the housing 1, and the rack 301 is slidably mounted within the sliding groove. A first mounting plate 2 is fixedly connected to the rack 301. A first motor 302 is fixedly mounted on the housing 1, and a first gear 303 is fixedly mounted on the output shaft of the first motor 302. The first gear 303 meshes with the rack 301. When the first motor 302 operates, it drives the first gear 303 to rotate, thereby moving the rack 301, and further moving the first mounting plate 2 and the first hook 4.
[0028] In this embodiment, one side of the first mounting plate 2 is fixedly connected to the rack 301, and the bottom of the other side of the first mounting plate 2 is fixedly provided with a first hook 4. The first hook 4 is arranged vertically and spaced back and forth.
[0029] Both the first hook 4 and the second hook 7 include a rod and a hook. The bottom of the rod of the first hook 4 is provided with a first notch 401 extending through the front and rear. The bottom of the rod of the first hook 4 is provided with hooks extending backward on both sides of the first notch 401.
[0030] The top of the rod of the second hook 7 is connected to a rearwardly extending hook portion. The top of the hook portion of the second hook 7 is lower than the top of the first hook 4 but higher than the bottom of the first hook 4, specifically as follows: Figure 4 As shown, the second hook 7 rotates clockwise, passes through the first notch 401, and can hook the first knot 501 on the first hook 4.
[0031] In this embodiment, the width of the first notch 401 gradually decreases from the bottom to the top, making the lower part of the first knot 501 corresponding to the first notch 401 longer, which makes it easier for the second hook 7 to hook onto it.
[0032] In this embodiment, an upper plate 304 and a lower plate 305 are fixedly provided on the housing 1, and a sliding groove is formed between the upper plate 304 and the lower plate 305. A baffle 306 is detachably installed on the housing 1. The baffle 306 is located at the opening of the sliding groove and slides with the rack 301. The upper plate 304, the lower plate 305 and the baffle 306 cooperate to guide the sliding of the rack 301, so that the rack 301 slides stably and does not deviate.
[0033] The upper plate 401 is provided with a transmission notch, and the first gear 303 is located in the transmission notch, which facilitates the first gear 303 to form a meshing relationship with the rack 301 in the sliding groove.
[0034] In this embodiment, the lower part of the side where the first mounting plate 2 is connected to the rack 301 slides with the lower plate 402. The lower plate 402 and the first mounting plate 2 provide a certain support, which helps the first mounting plate 2 slide stably.
[0035] In this embodiment, a winding roller 6 is rotatably mounted on the housing 1. A winding groove 601 is provided on the circumferential surface of the winding roller 6. A second hook 7 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the winding groove 601. A first bevel gear 801 is fixedly connected to one end of the winding roller 6.
[0036] The second drive assembly 8 includes a second motor 802 mounted on the housing 1. The second motor 802 drives a second bevel gear 803, and the first bevel gear 801 and the second bevel gear 803 mesh with each other.
[0037] When the second motor 802 is running, it drives the second bevel gear 803 to rotate, which in turn drives the first bevel gear 801 and the winding roller 6 to rotate, further causing the second hook 7 to rotate.
[0038] For clarity and convenience, such as Figure 1 The orientation shown is defined by directions such as up, down, left, and right. In this embodiment, during use, the second motor 802 drives the second bevel gear 803 to rotate, which in turn drives the first bevel gear 801 and the winding roller 6 to rotate, thereby enabling the second hook 7 to hook the first knot 501 hanging on the first hook 4. The elastic cord 5 is gradually wound into the winding groove 601 of the winding roller 6. The first motor 302 drives the first gear 303 to rotate, which in turn drives the rack 301 and the first mounting plate 2 to move to the left along the sliding groove, causing the first mounting plate 2 to move to the left and positioning the second hook 4 above the second hook 7. By repeating the above steps, different elastic cords 5 can be switched to perform ligation operations on different lesions.
[0039] The specific embodiments of this utility model described above do not constitute a limitation on the scope of protection of this utility model. Any other corresponding changes and modifications made based on the technical concept of this utility model should be included within the scope of protection of the claims of this utility model.
