The application discloses a knotting device and a blood vessel ligator. The knotting device comprises a gun body provided with a knotting groove and a knotting mechanism arranged in the knotting groove. The knotting mechanism comprises a spiral spring and an abutting piece abutting against the spring body of the spiral spring. The spiral spring has a hooking and pulling end and an extending end. The extending end is used for controlling the movement of the spring body of the spiral spring. The abutting piece is used for making the spring body of the spiral spring deform and stretch in the movement, so that the spring body of the spiral spring rotates. In the process of the rotation of the spring body of the spiral spring, the thread of the surgical suture hooked by the hooking and pulling end rotates around the surgical suture passing through the spring body of the spiral spring, so that the surgical suture forms a surgical knot. The blood vessel ligator comprises the knotting device. In the blood vessel ligator, the surgical suture can quickly form the surgical knot and the blood vessel can be tightly clamped by only operating the traction piece to pull the extending end of the spiral spring.

A toggle-type suture anchor that incorporates individual suture tensioning and locking without knot tying. The anchor includes several exemplary designs of toggle bodies having a working suture pre-threaded through one or more passages therethrough. A locking suture loop is pre-threaded relative to the working suture and includes a collapsible loop that encircles a portion of the length of suture running longitudinally adjacent the side of the anchor. With the loop open, the working suture can slide through the anchor, however, when the loop is closed the working suture is locked in position to retain tension on the working suture. Alternatively, the locking suture loop can be replaced with a mechanical locking member that moves from a first unlocked to a second locked position. The exemplary anchors can be utilized in a pre-strung connected array of anchors.

The application relates to the technical field of textile recycling, in particular to a rewoven process method based on shredded fabric recycling, which comprises the following steps: S1: classifying and screening the shredded fabric, and selecting fabric segments with a length not less than 10 cm; S2: cutting and processing the fabric segments to form cloth strips with a width of 1 cm-1.5 cm; S3: adopting a cross-knot tying method to tie and connect the cloth strips to form continuous cloth strip wires; and S4: reserving free ends with a length of 3 cm-5 cm at each connecting knot and keeping the free ends outside the woven structure to form a feather-like or tassel-like three-dimensional decoration effect. In the application, the shredded fabric is efficiently recycled, resource waste is reduced, and the green environmental protection requirement is met; the cross-knot tying is firm and not easy to loosen, the continuity and structural strength of the wire are ensured; the free ends are reserved to form a unique three-dimensional decoration, and the design performance and product added value are improved.

A surgical performing device and a surgical robot. The surgical performing device includes a knot tying mechanism and a thread picking mechanism. The knot tying mechanism includes a knot tying track configured to allow a leading end of a suture to move along the knot tying track, the knot tying track being disposed around a knot tying region, the knot tying track lying in a knot tying plane, the thread picking mechanism including a thread picking portion and a thread picking driving mechanism. The thread picking driving mechanism is configured to drive the thread picking portion to move to pick up a leading segment of the suture adjacent to the leading end of the suture. The knot tying mechanism is configured to drive the leading end of the suture to pass under the portion of the suture picked up to perform a knot tying action. The thread picking portion of the thread picking mechanism can pick up the leading segment of the suture, and the knot tying mechanism can drive the leading end of the suture to pass under the portion of the suture picked up to perform the knot tying action. Thus, the surgical performing device can independently perform a knot tying operation.

An automatic knot-tying device 10 is provided, comprising a line feeder 14 configured to supply line 8, a line tensioner 16 configured to apply tension to the line, and a line operation assembly 18 configured to operate the line so that line 8 is operably supplied from the feeder 14 and to tie knots 12 such as dropper loops. The device 10 further includes at least one knot sensor 20 configured to sense knots tied to the line, a line collector 22 configured to collect the line on which the knots are tied, and a controller 24 positioned to signal-communicate with the line feeder 4, line tensioner 16, line operation assembly 18, knot sensor 20, and line collector 22, and configured to monitor and control the line feeder 4, line tensioner 16, line operation assembly 18, knot sensor 20, and line collector 22 in order to automatically and continuously tie separated knots along the line for use as a pattern rig.

A food carrying system comprises a plurality of food service items including at least one container and optionally one or more plates, drink carriers, and / or trays. At least one of the food service items includes opposing strap openings formed in an edge, encircling flange, or opposed flange handles thereof. A support band encircles the stack, passing through the strap openings, and ends thereof are affixed together to stabilize the stack and in embodiments providing a hand-hold for carrying the stack. The band can further extend through a strap opening provided in a separate handle, so that the stack can be carried using the handle. Strap openings can be provided on lids and / or bases of the containers. Strap openings can be closed ovals, or can be C-shaped, having open outer edges. Band ends can be joined by adhesive, hook-and-loop, knot tying, stapling, snaps, buttons, etc.
