[0033] The following is for reference. Figures 1-9 Description of a left ventricular drainage connection device 100 for preventing negative pressure according to an embodiment of the present invention.
[0034] like Figures 1-9As shown, according to an embodiment of the present invention, the left ventricular drainage connection device 100 for preventing negative pressure, the intracardiac drainage device 1000 may include a drainage tube 200 and a drainage pump 300. The left ventricular drainage connection device 100 can be used in the intracardiac drainage device 1000. For example, one end of the drainage tube 200 can extend into the heart, and the other end of the drainage tube 200 can be connected to the left ventricular drainage connection device 100. The drainage pump 300 can be connected to the left ventricular drainage connection device 100, which facilitates the connection between the drainage pump 300 and the drainage tube 200 through the left ventricular drainage connection device 100. Thus, the drainage pump 300 can drive the drainage tube 200 to draw fluid from the heart, ensuring the normal operation of the intracardiac drainage device 1000.
[0035] The left ventricular drainage connection device 100 may include a protective box 10 and a protective cover 20. The protective box 10 may have a first connector 11 and a second connector 12. The first connector 11 may be connected to the drainage pump 300, and the second connector 12 may be connected to the drainage tube 200, so that the drainage pump 300 can be connected to the drainage tube 200 through the protective box 10. The protective box 10 may have an air inlet 15, and the internal space of the protective box 10 can be connected to the outside through the air inlet 15. The protective cover 20 may be set inside the protective box 10, and the protective cover 20 may be movably connected to the protective box 10, which is conducive to opening and closing the air inlet 15.
[0036] When the intracardiac drainage device 1000 is working normally, that is, when the drainage tube 200 can normally draw fluid from the heart without clamping the inner wall of the heart, the protective cover 20 can normally close the air inlet 15. For example, the protective cover 20 can automatically fall down under its own weight to close the air inlet 15, and the protective cover 20 can be maintained in the position of closing the air inlet 15 under its own weight, thereby enabling the intracardiac drainage device 1000 to draw fluid from the heart and improving the stability of the intracardiac drainage device 1000 in operation.
[0037] When the drainage tube 200 clamps the inner wall of the heart and the protective cover 20 closes the air inlet 15, the drainage pump 300 can generate negative pressure in the drainage tube 200. Since the drainage tube 200 can be connected to the protective box 10, the protective cover 20 can overcome its own weight under the action of negative pressure to open the air inlet 15, so that the drainage tube 200 can be connected to the outside. Thus, the drainage pump 300 can drive the drainage tube 200 to draw in outside air, which can reduce the negative pressure in the drainage tube 200.
[0038] Therefore, the suction force of the drainage tube 200 on the inner wall of the heart can be reduced, and the suction time of the drainage tube 200 on the inner wall of the heart can be reduced. That is, the protective cover 20 can open the air inlet 15 when the drainage tube 200 is suctioning the inner wall of the heart, so as to reduce the suction of the drainage tube 200 on the inner wall of the heart, and prevent the drainage tube 200 from damaging the heart due to suctioning the inner wall of the heart, thereby improving the safety of using the intracardiac drainage device 1000.
[0039] The left ventricular drainage connection device 100 for preventing negative pressure according to an embodiment of the present invention, by setting the left ventricular drainage connection device 100 between the drainage tube 200 and the drainage pump 300, allows the drainage tube 200 to communicate with the outside when a certain negative pressure is generated in the left ventricular cavity, thereby preventing further suction of the heart wall. That is, it can reduce the suction of the drainage tube 200 on the heart wall and prevent the drainage tube 200 from damaging the heart due to suction of the heart wall, thereby improving the safety of the intracardiac drainage device 1000. In addition, since the protective box 10 is provided with a connector, the left ventricular drainage connection device 100 can be directly connected between the drainage tube 200 and the drainage pump 300 without modifying the existing drainage tube 200 and drainage pump 300. It is convenient to connect and use, has low manufacturing cost, and is easy to promote and apply.
[0040] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 5 and Figure 7 As shown, according to some embodiments of the present invention, the protective cover 20 can be slidably connected to the protective box 10. For example, the protective cover 20 can be slidably connected to the protective box 10 in the vertical direction (e.g., ...). Figure 2 The protective cover 20 slides upwards (as shown in the up-down direction) so that it can automatically slide downwards under its own weight (as shown in the up-down direction). Figure 2 The movement (shown from top to bottom) can close the air inlet 15 and allow the protective cover 20 to be maintained in the closed position of the air inlet 15 under its own weight, thereby enabling the intracardiac drainage device 1000 to normally extract fluid from the heart and improve the stability of the intracardiac drainage device 1000.
[0041] When the drainage tube 200 clamps the inner wall of the heart and the protective cap 20 closes the air inlet 15, the drainage pump 300 can generate negative pressure within the drainage tube 200, allowing the protective cap 20 to overcome its own weight and move upwards under the action of negative pressure (e.g., Figure 2 The movement (shown in the bottom-up direction) can open the air inlet 15 to connect the drainage pipe 200 with the outside.
[0042] The drainage pump 300 can drive the drainage tube 200 to draw in outside air, so that the air pressure inside the drainage tube 200 is approximately the same as the outside air pressure. This allows the drainage tube 200 to immediately release the heart wall after adhering to it, until the protective cover 20 closes the air inlet 15 under its own weight. This allows the intracardiac drainage device 1000 to normally draw fluid from the heart and prevents the drainage tube 200 from damaging the heart due to clamping the heart wall, thus improving the safety of using the intracardiac drainage device 1000.
[0043] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, the protective box 10 can be a box body surrounded by multiple walls 13. One wall 13 of the protective box 10 (such as the first wall 131) can be provided with an air inlet 15, and the wall 13 with the air inlet 15 can be the bottom wall of the protective box 10, such as... Figure 2 As shown, the left ventricular drainage connection device 100 can be arranged horizontally, that is, the bottom wall of the protective box 10 can be parallel to the horizontal plane, so that the protective cover 20 can be moved up and down (e.g., Figure 2 The up-down direction shown indicates that the air inlet 15 can be opened and closed, which helps to improve the smoothness of the movement of the protective cover 20 and the opening and closing of the air inlet 15.
[0044] Furthermore, such as Figure 3 As shown, the left ventricular drainage connection device 100 can be arranged at an angle, that is, the bottom wall of the protective box 10 can be inclined to the horizontal plane, and the protective cover 20 can be inclined relative to the protective box 10 in the vertical direction (e.g., Figure 3 Slide in the direction shown in the up and down direction. When the intracardiac drainage device 1000 is working normally, that is, when the drainage tube 200 can normally draw fluid from the heart and does not clamp the inner wall of the heart, the protective cover 20 can normally close the air inlet 15.
[0045] For example, the protective cover 20 can automatically tilt downwards under the influence of its own weight (e.g.) Figure 3 The movement shown in the lower right corner can close the air inlet 15 and allow the protective cover 20 to be maintained in the closed position of the air inlet 15 under the action of its own gravity, thereby enabling the intracardiac drainage device 1000 to normally extract fluid from the heart and improve the stability of the intracardiac drainage device 1000.
[0046] When the drainage tube 200 clamps the inner wall of the heart and the protective cap 20 closes the air inlet 15, the drainage pump 300 can generate negative pressure within the drainage tube 200, allowing the protective cap 20 to overcome its own weight under the negative pressure and move upward (e.g., Figure 3The movement (as shown in the upper left direction) can open the air inlet 15 to connect the drainage pipe 200 with the outside.
[0047] The drainage pump 300 can drive the drainage tube 200 to draw in outside air, so that the air pressure inside the drainage tube 200 is approximately the same as the outside air pressure. This allows the drainage tube 200 to immediately release the heart wall after adhering to it, until the protective cover 20 closes the air inlet 15 under its own gravity. This allows the intracardiac drainage device 1000 to normally draw fluid from the heart, prevents the drainage tube 200 from damaging the heart due to adhering to the heart wall, and improves the safety of using the intracardiac drainage device 1000.
[0048] By adjusting the orientation of the left ventricular drainage connection device 100, i.e., by adjusting the tilt angle of the bottom wall of the protective box 10 relative to the horizontal plane, the magnitude of the gravitational component of the protective cover 20 can be adjusted. Since the protective cover 20 needs to overcome its own weight or its own gravitational component under negative pressure to open the air inlet 15, the maximum force of the drainage tube 200 clamping the inner wall of the heart can be adjusted, and the sensitivity of the protective cover 20 in opening and closing the air inlet 15 can be adjusted. This can prevent the drainage tube 200 from damaging the heart due to clamping the inner wall of the heart, and can improve the safety of the intracardiac drainage device 1000.
[0049] Specifically, the operator can reduce the tilt angle of the bottom wall of the protective box 10 relative to the horizontal plane, which can increase the gravitational component of the protective cover 20. This will require the protective cover 20 to overcome its own gravity under greater negative pressure to open the air inlet 15. This can increase the maximum force of the drainage tube 200 clamping the inner wall of the heart, and reduce the sensitivity of the protective cover 20 in opening and closing the air inlet 15, until the bottom wall of the protective box 10 is parallel to the horizontal plane for easy placement. At this point, the protective cover 20 needs to completely overcome its own gravity to open the air inlet 15.
[0050] Alternatively, the operator can increase the tilt angle of the bottom wall of the protective box 10 relative to the horizontal plane, which can reduce the gravitational component of the protective cover 20. This allows the protective cover 20 to overcome its own gravity under a smaller negative pressure to open the air inlet 15, which can reduce the maximum force of the drainage tube 200 clamping the inner wall of the heart and increase the sensitivity of the protective cover 20 in opening and closing the air inlet 15. This can prevent the drainage tube 200 from damaging the heart due to clamping the inner wall of the heart and improve the safety of using the intracardiac drainage device 1000.
[0051] like Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, according to some embodiments of the present invention, the protective box 10 may have a first wall portion 131, an air inlet 15 may be disposed on the first wall portion 131, and the first wall portion 131 may be the bottom wall of the protective box 10. The extending direction of the first wall portion 131 may be horizontal, i.e., as shown in the figure. Figure 2 As shown, the bottom wall of the protective box 10 can be parallel to the horizontal plane, so the protective cover 20 can be raised and lowered (e.g., ...). Figure 2 The up-down direction shown indicates that the air inlet 15 can be opened and closed, which helps to improve the smoothness of the movement of the protective cover 20 and the opening and closing of the air inlet 15.
[0052] Alternatively, the extension direction of the first wall portion 131 can be inclined to the horizontal direction, that is, the bottom wall of the protective box 10 can be inclined to the horizontal plane, and the protective cover 20 can be inclined to the vertical direction relative to the protective box 10 (e.g., Figure 3 Sliding in the direction shown (up and down), based on the fact that the protective cover 20 can move normally to open and close the air inlet 15, the operator can adjust the magnitude of the gravitational component of the protective cover 20 by adjusting the extension direction of the first wall 131. This allows for adjustment of the maximum force with which the drainage tube 200 clamps the inner wall of the heart, and also adjusts the sensitivity of the protective cover 20 in opening and closing the air inlet 15. This helps prevent the drainage tube 200 from damaging the heart due to clamping the inner wall of the heart, and also improves the safety of using the intracardiac drainage device 1000.
[0053] like Figure 2 , Figure 5 , Figure 7 and Figure 9 As shown, according to some embodiments of the present invention, the size of the protective cover 20 can be larger than the size of the air inlet 15, and the protective cover 20 can cover the air inlet 15 to close the air inlet 15, which can increase the contact area between the protective cover 20 and the protective box 10, and improve the sealing between the protective cover 20 and the protective box 10, thereby preventing outside air from entering the protective box 10 when the drainage tube 200 is normally drawing fluid from the heart, and ensuring the normal use of the intracardiac drainage device 1000.
[0054] like Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the protective box 10 may have an air inlet pipe 14, which may be connected to an air inlet 15, and the air inlet pipe 14 may be located inside the protective box 10. The air inlet pipe 14 may be in a direction perpendicular to the wall portion 13 (such as the first wall portion 131) of the protective box 10 where the air inlet 15 is provided (e.g., Figure 2 Extending in the vertical direction (as shown), the protective cover 20 can be installed inside the air intake pipe 14, and the protective cover 20 can be slidably connected to the air intake pipe 14, which can limit the sliding of the protective cover 20 and improve the stability of the sliding of the protective cover 20.
[0055] The protective cover 20 can extend along the direction of the intake pipe 14 (e.g., Figure 2 The protective cover 20 can slide down automatically under its own weight (as shown in the up-down direction), allowing it to slide downwards (as shown in the up-down direction). Figure 2 The movement (as shown in the top-to-bottom direction) closes the air inlet 15, and allows the protective cover 20 to be maintained in the closed position of the air inlet 15 under its own weight, thereby enabling the intracardiac drainage device 1000 to normally extract fluid from the heart and improving the stability of the intracardiac drainage device 1000 in operation.
[0056] Among them, the side of the intake pipe 14 closest to the intake port 15 (e.g.) Figure 2 The lower side (as shown) may have a notch 142, and the protective cover 20 may be upward (as shown). Figure 2 The pump 300 moves in the direction shown (from bottom to top) to connect the notch 142 with the air inlet 15. When the drainage tube 200 clamps the inner wall of the heart and the protective cover 20 closes the air inlet 15, the drainage pump 300 can generate negative pressure in the drainage tube 200, allowing the protective cover 20 to overcome its own weight and move upward (as shown in the diagram). Figure 2 The movement (shown in the bottom-up direction) opens the air inlet 15 so that the drainage tube 200 is connected to the air inlet 15 through the notch 142.
[0057] The drainage pump 300 can drive the drainage tube 200 to draw in outside air, so that the air pressure inside the drainage tube 200 is approximately the same as the outside air pressure. This allows the drainage tube 200 to immediately release the heart wall after adhering to it, until the protective cover 20 closes the air inlet 15 under its own weight. This allows the intracardiac drainage device 1000 to normally draw fluid from the heart and prevents the drainage tube 200 from damaging the heart due to clamping the heart wall, thus improving the safety of using the intracardiac drainage device 1000.
[0058] like Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, in some embodiments, the outer periphery of the protective cover 20 may have a groove 21, and the inner wall of the air intake pipe 14 may have a slider 141, the slider 141 being able to extend along the extension direction of the air intake pipe 14 (e.g., Figure 2 Extending in the vertical direction as shown, and the slider 141 can slide and engage with the groove 21, which can improve the reliability of the sliding of the protective cover 20. Alternatively, the outer periphery of the protective cover 20 can have a slider 141, and the inner wall of the air intake pipe 14 can have a groove 21, with the slider 141 sliding and engaging with the groove 21.
[0059] like Figure 7As shown, in some embodiments, the protective box 10 may have multiple baffles 17, each baffle 17 being arranged in a direction perpendicular to the wall portion 13 (such as the first wall portion 131) of the protective box 10 where the air inlet 15 is provided (e.g., Figure 7 The protective cover 20 extends in the vertical direction shown, and multiple baffles 17 can be located inside the protective box 10. Multiple baffles 17 can be set on the outer periphery of the air inlet 15. The protective cover 20 can be set between multiple baffles 17, and the protective cover 20 can be slidably connected to multiple baffles 17 respectively, which can limit the sliding of the protective cover 20 and improve the stability of the sliding of the protective cover 20.
[0060] The protective cover 20 can extend along the direction of the baffle 17 (e.g., Figure 7 The protective cover 20 can slide down automatically under its own weight (as shown in the up-down direction), allowing it to slide downwards (as shown in the up-down direction). Figure 7 The movement (as shown in the top-to-bottom direction) closes the air inlet 15, and allows the protective cover 20 to be maintained in the closed position of the air inlet 15 under its own weight, thereby enabling the intracardiac drainage device 1000 to normally extract fluid from the heart and improving the stability of the intracardiac drainage device 1000 in operation.
[0061] Multiple baffles 17 can be arranged at intervals along the circumference of the air inlet 15, such that there can be a gap between two adjacent baffles 17, and the protective cover 20 can face upwards (e.g., Figure 7 The movement (as shown in the bottom-up direction) allows the gap to communicate with the air inlet 15. When the drainage tube 200 clamps the inner wall of the heart and the protective cap 20 closes the air inlet 15, the drainage pump 300 can generate negative pressure within the drainage tube 200, allowing the protective cap 20 to overcome its own weight and move upward (as shown in the bottom-up direction) under the action of negative pressure. Figure 7 The movement (shown in the bottom-up direction) opens the air inlet 15 so that the drain pipe 200 communicates with the air inlet 15 through the gap between two adjacent baffles 17.
[0062] The drainage pump 300 can drive the drainage tube 200 to draw in outside air, so that the air pressure inside the drainage tube 200 is approximately the same as the outside air pressure. This allows the drainage tube 200 to immediately release the heart wall after adhering to it, until the protective cover 20 closes the air inlet 15 under its own weight. This allows the intracardiac drainage device 1000 to normally draw fluid from the heart and prevents the drainage tube 200 from damaging the heart due to clamping the heart wall, thus improving the safety of using the intracardiac drainage device 1000.
[0063] like Figure 8As shown, in some embodiments, the outer edge of the protective cover 20 may have multiple mating grooves 22. The multiple mating grooves 22 may be arranged at intervals along the circumference of the protective cover 20, and the multiple mating grooves 22 may correspond one-to-one with multiple baffles 17. The mating grooves 22 may extend along the extending direction of the baffles 17, and the mating grooves 22 may slide with the baffles 17, which can limit the sliding of the protective cover 20, improve the reliability of the sliding of the protective cover 20, and improve the stability of the sliding of the protective cover 20.
[0064] like Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, in some embodiments, the protective box 10 may also have a guide post 16, which may be located inside the protective box 10, with one end of the guide post 16 (e.g., Figure 5 The upper end shown can be connected to the protective box 10, and the other end of the guide post 16 (as shown) can be connected to the protective box 10. Figure 5 The lower end shown can be directed towards the air intake 15 (e.g.) Figure 5 Extending from top to bottom (as shown), the protective cover 20 and the guide post 16 can slide together, which can improve the limiting effect of the protective cover 20, improve the sliding reliability and stability of the protective cover 20, improve the guiding effect of the protective cover 20, and improve the smoothness of the sliding of the protective cover 20.
[0065] According to some embodiments of this utility model, the protective cover 20 can be rotatably connected to the protective box 10, such as... Figure 9 As shown, the protective cover 20 can be positioned relative to the protective case 10 at... Figure 9 From the perspective shown, the protective cover 20 can rotate clockwise or counterclockwise. For example, the protective cover 20 can automatically rotate clockwise under its own weight, which can close the air inlet 15. The protective cover 20 can also be maintained in the closed air inlet 15 position under its own weight, thereby enabling the intracardiac drainage device 1000 to normally extract fluid from the heart and improve the stability of the intracardiac drainage device 1000.
[0066] When the drainage tube 200 clamps the inner wall of the heart and the protective cover 20 closes the air inlet 15, the drainage pump 300 can generate negative pressure inside the drainage tube 200. This allows the protective cover 20 to overcome its own weight and rotate counterclockwise under the negative pressure, opening the air inlet 15 and connecting the drainage tube 200 to the outside. The drainage pump 300 can then drive the drainage tube 200 to draw in outside air, making the air pressure inside the drainage tube 200 approximately the same as the outside air pressure. This allows the drainage tube 200 to immediately release the inner wall of the heart after clamping it, until the protective cover 20 closes the air inlet 15 under its own weight. This ensures that the intracardiac drainage device 1000 can normally extract fluid from the heart and prevents damage to the heart caused by the drainage tube 200 clamping the inner wall, thus improving the safety of the intracardiac drainage device 1000.
[0067] like Figure 9 As shown, in some embodiments, the left ventricular drainage connection device 100 may further include a torsion spring 30. The protective cover 20 and the protective box 10 can be rotatably connected via a rotating shaft 40. The torsion spring 30 can be sleeved on the rotating shaft 40, and both ends of the torsion spring 30 can contact the protective cover 20 and the protective box 10 respectively. When the drainage tube 200 clamps the inner wall of the heart and the protective cover 20 closes the air inlet 15, the drainage pump 300 can generate negative pressure in the drainage tube 200, so that the protective cover 20 can be in negative pressure. Under the action of the spring force of the torsion spring 30, the tube rotates in the counterclockwise direction and opens the air inlet 15. At the same time, the torsion spring 30 can undergo elastic deformation and store force. Furthermore, the drainage tube 200 can immediately loosen the inner wall of the heart when the protective cover 20 opens the air inlet 15. At this time, the torsion spring 30 can return to its initial shape to drive the protective cover 20 to close the air inlet 15. This can ensure that the drainage tube 200 draws fluid from the heart and ensure that the intracardiac drainage device 1000 works normally.
