This invention belongs to the field of
medical device technology. It discloses a multi-axis stretchable wound zipper device and its manufacturing method. The device includes an upper dressing encapsulation layer, a lower dressing encapsulation layer,
shape memory alloy shrinking units, a serpentine flexible conductive layer, an
elastomer encapsulation layer, a flexible
microcontroller unit, and a
power supply unit. The
shape memory alloy shrinking units are arranged in a regular hexagon, possessing
six degrees of freedom to stretch freely along six axial directions spaced 60 degrees apart, to match wounds of different shapes, and shrink axially under electrothermal drive to achieve
wound edge closure. The manufacturing method includes
laser cutting of
nickel-
titanium shape memory alloy sheets, serpentine flexible conductive
layers, transfer of serpentine conductive
layers, and layered encapsulation and
etching. This invention can adapt to wounds of various complex shapes such as linear, triangular, rectangular, and circular, achieving programmable personalized mechanical shrinkage, with fast response speed, low driving
voltage, simple operation, and significantly promoting
wound healing.
