Abstract

This utility model discloses an absorbable surgical suture winder, including a storage box. Inside the storage box is a rotating shaft capable of axial rotation. An elastic plate extends from the outer wall of the rotating shaft, forming an angle with the rotating shaft. A spring is positioned between the elastic plate and the rotating shaft to connect the elastic plate and the rotating shaft. The end of the elastic plate away from the rotating shaft remains in contact with the inner wall of the storage box. The absorbable surgical suture winder provided by this utility model allows the rotating shaft to rotate by keeping the end of the elastic plate in contact with the inner wall of the storage groove. When the suture is wound, the elastic plate winds the suture between its end and the inner wall of the storage groove for fixation, bringing the wound suture end close to the groove for easy suture retrieval. Furthermore, the spring's rebound force between the elastic plate and the rotating shaft compresses the elastic plate towards the rotating shaft as the suture is continuously wound, ensuring the elastic plate constantly holds the suture in place.

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical device technology, and more specifically to an absorbable surgical suture winder. Background Technology

[0002] Medical sutures are special medical sutures used in surgical procedures for ligation to stop bleeding, suturing to stop bleeding, and tissue closure.

[0003] For example, patent CN218128630U discloses a non-absorbable surgical suture winder, including a storage box. The storage box contains two connecting plates connected by a connecting rod. Multiple winding rollers are positioned between the two connecting plates, each connected to a connecting plate via a connecting mechanism. A rotating block is rotatably mounted on the storage box, connected to one of the connecting plates via an insertion mechanism. The bottom wall of the storage box has an installation opening, into which an installation plate is threadedly connected. The side wall of the storage box has an opening. This utility model, by incorporating a storage box, connecting plates, multiple winding rollers, a rotating block, an opening, and a movable plate, allows the storage box to hold multiple winding rollers. Simultaneously, the storage box has a single opening that automatically closes. When retrieving sutures, the multiple winding rollers can rotate and adjust relative to the storage box, resulting in high overall practicality and dust-proof performance.

[0004] In practice, when most surgical sutures are wound and stored, the sutures are stored inside, and the suture ends are far away from the outlet of the storage device, which makes it difficult for operators to retrieve the sutures.

[0005] It is evident that the aforementioned problems with existing technologies urgently need to be addressed. Utility Model Content

[0006] In view of the above-mentioned problems in the prior art, one objective of this utility model is to provide an absorbable surgical suture winder to solve the problems that after the suture is wound and rolled up, the suture is wound on the outer wall of the rotating shaft, causing the suture end to be far away from the outlet of the storage device, making it inconvenient for the operator to quickly retrieve the suture.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides an absorbable surgical suture winder, comprising a storage box, wherein a rotating shaft capable of axial rotation is disposed inside the storage box, an elastic plate is provided extending from the outer wall of the rotating shaft, an angle is formed between the elastic plate and the rotating shaft, a spring is disposed between the angle to connect the elastic plate and the rotating shaft, and the end of the elastic plate away from the rotating shaft is kept in contact with the inner wall of the storage box; The storage box has a storage slot inside, and a winding block that can maintain axial rotation is provided on the top of the storage box. The winding block is connected to the rotating shaft. The outer wall of the storage box has a through groove that connects to the storage slot, and the inner wall of the through groove has a sliding groove in which an opening and closing door panel is slidably disposed.

[0008] Preferably, the elastic plate has a communicating winding hole at the end away from the rotating shaft.

[0009] Beneficial effects: Compared with the prior art, the absorbable surgical suture winder provided by this utility model has the following beneficial effects: By keeping the end of the elastic plate in contact with the inner wall of the storage groove, the shaft rotates and the thread is wound up. The elastic plate will fix the thread between the end of the elastic plate and the inner wall of the storage groove, so that the thread end of the wound thread is close to the groove, which is convenient for subsequent thread retrieval.

[0010] By utilizing the spring's rebound force between the elastic plate and the pivot, as the thread is continuously wound up, the elastic plate is pressed towards the pivot. Through the spring's rebound force, the elastic plate constantly clamps the thread, causing the thread to be wound up and fixed between the end of the elastic plate and the inner wall of the storage groove. Attached Figure Description

[0011] To more clearly illustrate the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application or the prior art, the drawings used in the embodiments will be briefly introduced below. Obviously, the drawings described below are only some embodiments recorded in this utility model. For those skilled in the art, other drawings can be obtained based on these drawings.

[0014] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution of this utility model, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0015] like Figure 1-2As shown, an absorbable surgical suture winder includes a storage box 1. Inside the storage box 1, there is a rotating shaft 6 that can maintain axial rotation. An elastic plate 7 extends from the outer wall of the rotating shaft 6. An angle is formed between the elastic plate 7 and the rotating shaft 6. A spring 8 is provided between the angle to connect the elastic plate 7 and the rotating shaft 6. The end of the elastic plate 7 away from the rotating shaft 6 is kept in contact with the inner wall of the storage box 1.

[0016] The main purpose of this absorbable surgical suture winder is to keep the end of the elastic plate 7 in contact with the inner wall of the storage groove 5, so that the rotating shaft 6 can rotate and wind the suture. When the suture is wound up, the elastic plate 7 will wind the suture between the end of the elastic plate 7 and the inner wall of the storage groove 5 for fixation, so that the wound suture end is close to the through groove 3 for easy suture retrieval later. Also, through the rebound force of the spring 8 between the elastic plate 7 and the rotating shaft 6, when the suture is continuously wound up, the elastic plate 7 is squeezed towards the rotating shaft 6. Through the rebound force of the spring 8, the elastic plate 7 clamps the suture at all times, so that the suture is wound up between the end of the elastic plate 7 and the inner wall of the storage groove 5 for fixation.

[0017] In the technical solution provided by this utility model, by Figure 1 and Figure 2 It is known that the storage box 1 has a storage groove 5 inside for storing and winding the sewing thread, and the top of the storage box 1 is provided with a winding block 2 that can maintain axial rotation. The winding block 2 is connected to the rotating shaft 6. The winding block 2 can be manually rotated, thereby driving the rotating shaft 6 to rotate axially, thereby rotating and winding the sewing thread wrapped around the end of the elastic plate 7 between the end of the elastic plate 7 and the inner wall of the storage groove 5 for fixation.

[0018] Furthermore, the outer wall of the storage box 1 has a through groove 3 that connects to the storage slot 5, and the inner wall of the through groove 3 has a sliding groove 10. An opening and closing door panel 4 is slidably installed in the sliding groove 10. When the sewing is not in use, the through groove 3 can be closed to keep the inside of the storage slot 5 sealed and prevent dust and bacteria from entering the interior.

[0019] Furthermore, the end of the elastic plate 7 away from the rotating shaft 6 has a connecting winding hole 9, which allows the operator to manually pass the sewing thread end through the winding hole 9 and tie it to the end of the elastic plate 7. Then, by rotating the rotating shaft 6, the sewing thread can be wound and rolled up.

[0020] Working principle: First, open the door panel 4, then rotate the winding block 2 to make the rotating shaft 6 rotate synchronously, so that the end of the elastic plate 7 is aligned with the through groove 3; Then, manually thread the thread through the winding hole 9 and tie it to the end of the elastic plate 7. Then manually rotate the winding block 2 to make the thread be wound between the end of the elastic plate 7 and the inner wall of the storage groove 5. Through the rebound force of the spring 8 between the elastic plate 7 and the rotating shaft 6, as the thread is continuously wound, the elastic plate 7 is squeezed towards the rotating shaft 6. Through the rebound force of the spring 8, the elastic plate 7 clamps the thread at all times, keeping the thread fixed. After the stitching is finished being rolled up and wrapped, manually close the door panel 4; When the sewing thread is needed, open the hinged door panel 4, then rotate the thread winding block 2 to align the thread end with the through groove 3, and the sewing thread can be taken out.

[0021] The foregoing description only illustrates certain exemplary embodiments of the present invention. Undoubtedly, those skilled in the art can modify the described embodiments in various ways without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the above drawings and descriptions are illustrative in nature and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
