Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of biological tissue cutting technology, specifically a novel Wharton's gum extraction device. Background Technology

[0002] The preparation of umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells requires the extraction of Wharton's jelly from umbilical cord tissue. The key technical aspect of Wharton's jelly extraction lies in the composition and structural characteristics of the umbilical cord tissue. Umbilical cord tissue exhibits a structure characterized by "randomly coiled polysaccharide chains," and its composition is as follows: Umbilical cord: The most prominent part of the umbilical cord is the umbilical cord, which typically includes two umbilical arteries and one umbilical vein; Mucus tissue: The interior of the umbilical cord is filled with a substance called mucus tissue or Wharton's jelly, a gel-like substance rich in polysaccharides (mainly Wharton's jelly) and collagen; Umbilical cord membrane: The umbilical cord is surrounded by the umbilical cord membrane, a thin membrane composed of the amnion and chorion, which helps maintain the structural integrity of the umbilical cord and provides some protection.

[0003] Currently, Wharton's jelly extraction involves using tweezers to tear open the umbilical cord along its spiral structure (the randomly coiled structure of the polysaccharide chains), removing the umbilical artery and vein, then using tweezers in the left hand to hold the dissected umbilical cord tissue in place, while using tweezers in the right hand to grasp the Wharton's jelly. This method is inefficient: a large portion of the Wharton's jelly is not completely extracted; it is time-consuming; prolonged use of tweezers for delicate manipulation can cause occupational injuries or discomfort (such as wrist pain, finger cramps, neck and shoulder fatigue, and eye strain); and training technicians for this skill is costly. Therefore, it is necessary to provide an umbilical cord Wharton's jelly extraction device to solve these technical problems. Utility Model Content

The lifting annular cutter head is connected to the drive rod. The end of the drive rod outside the peeling table is connected to a movable nut rod by a thread. The movable nut rod is screwed into the peeling table to contact the peeling table and lock the lifting annular cutter head.

[0013] Furthermore, the cutting blade is provided with linearly arranged fixing grooves, the linear arrangement direction of the fixing grooves is parallel to the cutting head, the cutting blade is interference-fitted with the fixing grooves, at least two fixing grooves are provided, and at least one cutting blade is provided.

[0014] Furthermore, the fixing groove is provided with vertical strip-shaped protrusions for locking and fixing the cutting blade.

[0015] Furthermore, the cutting head is a long strip blade, and after the cutting platform is flipped, the cutting head corresponds to the anti-slip fixing groove.

[0016] Furthermore, the first and second page-turning movable parts are hinges, and the hinges are connected to the cutting platform, the stripping table, and the cutting platform by screws;

[0017] Specifically, the slicing platform and the cutting platform are equipped with handles at the ends away from the stripping table, and the closure between the platforms is achieved by the cooperation of the hinges and the handles.
