[00182] now to operation applicator 100 to form around such as the destination organization of vascular or the operation clip that curls is described.With reference to Figure 32 to Figure 43, be illustrated in any operation or use operation applicator 100 before.As Figure 32 and shown in Figure 33, before using or launching applicator 100, trigger 108 generally is in non-pressure-bearing or non-actuated condition.Like this, the crankshaft cheek 124 of driven unit 120 is in the position of withdrawal or nearside, and therefore, plunger 135 and drive rod 140 also are in retracted position.When crankshaft cheek 124 was in retracted position, ratchet 224 was arranged among the distal recesses 124b that is limited in the crankshaft cheek 124.
[00183] as Figure 35 to shown in Figure 37, when driven unit 120 and drive rod 140 were in retracted position, connecting plate 174 was positioned at withdrawal or side position recently.When connecting plate 174 is positioned at withdrawal or nearest side position, push rod 156 also is in withdrawal or nearest side position, the first tear-drop shaped bar 174b of connecting plate 174 be arranged in push rod 156 nearest side window mouth 156h near-end and keep and the engaging of the tip snap fit of the second spring clip 157b.And, when connecting plate 174 is positioned at withdrawal or nearest side position, clapboard 172 also is positioned at withdrawal or nearest side position, and the second tear-drop shaped bar 174c of connecting plate 174 is arranged in the near-end of the nearest side window mouth 172c of clapboard 172, and keeps and the engaging of the tip snap fit of the 3rd spring clip 157c.
[00184] as Figure 36 and shown in Figure 37, when driven unit 120 and drive rod 140 were in retracted position, the protruding 182a of slip joint 182 was arranged in the farthest side position of the elongated slot 140a of drive rod 140.
[00185] as Figure 38 and shown in Figure 39, when driven unit 120 and drive rod 140 are in retracted position, clip follower 166 is positioned at the most proximal end of the passage of clip carrier 164, wherein projection 166b in the distally of clip follower 166 operatively is arranged among the nearest side window mouth 162a of pushing plate 162, and nearside projection 166c operatively is arranged among the nearest side window mouth 164a of clip carrier 164.
[00186] continues with reference to Figure 38 and Figure 39, when driven unit 120 and drive rod 140 are in retracted position, slip joint 180 is positioned at nearest side position, and be arranged among the nest eye 182b of slip joint 180 because drive the protruding 168d of passage 168, also be positioned at nearest side position so drive passage 168.As Figure 38 and shown in Figure 39, slip joint 180 is near the physics backstop 152e (referring to Figure 30) that gives prominence to from lower house 152b.
[00187] as Figure 40 and shown in Figure 41, when driven unit 120 and drive rod 140 were in retracted position, clapboard lock 190 is arranged in nearest side position so that the tooth 190e that extends from its afterbody 190c is arranged in the nearside (referring to Figure 30 and Figure 31) of the inclination lug 152f that is formed at lower house 152b.As shown in figure 41, clapboard lock 190 is near the physics backstop 152g that gives prominence to from lower house 152b.Equally as shown in figure 41, clapboard releasing device 194 is arranged in primary importance and sentences just its tooth 194c and protrude among the window 168e that is formed among the sidewall 168b that drives passage 168.
[00188] as Figure 42 and shown in Figure 43, when driven unit 120 and drive rod 140 are in retracted position, the pusher 156c of push rod 156 be arranged in the farthest side clip " C " that remains in the clip carrier 164 after stride the nearside of portion.Farthest side clip " C " remains in the passage of clip carrier 164 by its tang 164b.And as mentioned above, in this position, clapboard 172 is positioned at nearest side position so that its far-end 172a is positioned at the nearside of jaw 106.
[00189] as shown in figure 43, when driving passage 168 was positioned at nearest side position, its far-end broke away from from the proximal cam surface 106b of jaw 106.
[00190] now forwards Figure 44 to Figure 54 to, in the phase I of initial stroke, along with trigger 108 is extruded or activates from initial position, trigger 108 makes forked link 122 towards distal direction motion crankshaft cheek 124, and this will make and drive adapter 134 and plunger 135 distal motion and make drive rod 140 distal motion.When along with plunger 135 distal motion, spring 136 is compressed primary quantity.
[00191] meanwhile, along with crankshaft cheek 124 distal motion, the tooth of tooth bar 124a engages with the tooth 224a of ratchet 224, and ratchet 224 shifts out or rotate the distal recesses 124a of crankshaft cheek 124.Like this, under the situation of not finishing complete distally stroke, crankshaft cheek 124 can not be got back to nearest side position.
[00192] as shown in figure 44, along with trigger 108 is extruded primary quantity, arm 127 beginning translations are by the raceway 126a of feedback means 126.
[00193] as shown in figure 46, along with drive rod 140 moves towards distal direction, drive rod 140 promotes connecting plate 174 towards distal direction.Because push rod 156 optionally is connected in connecting plate 174 by the second spring clip 157b, push rod 156 is advanced or pulling towards distal direction.And because clapboard 172 optionally is connected in connecting plate 174 by the 3rd spring clip 157c, clapboard 172 is also advanced or is dragged towards distal direction.
[00194] along with drive rod 140 towards distal direction motion, its elongated slot 140a also towards the distal direction motion so that the protruding 182a of slip joint 182 translation on respect to its proximal direction.
[00195] extremely shown in Figure 49 as Figure 47, along with clapboard 172 moves towards distal direction, because the protruding 172b of clapboard 172 remains among the nest eye 190d of clapboard lock 190, clapboard lock 190 is moved towards distal direction or is dragged, this makes the tooth 190e of its afterbody 190c be crossed the inclination lug 152f that is formed among the lower house 152b with cam driven, thereby moves to the distal position of inclination lug 152f from the proximal position of inclination lug 152f.Along with clapboard lock 190 moves towards distal direction, biasing member 192 is compressed primary quantity.As shown in figure 49, clapboard lock 190 locks 190 near the physics backstop that is formed among the lower house 152b towards the distal direction motion until clapboard.
[00196] shown in Figure 47 A, along with push rod 156 moves towards distal direction, the fin 162b of pushing plate 162 is the translation preset distance in the side groove 156f of push rod 156, contacts or engage the near-end of the side groove 156f of push rod 156 up to fin 162b.
[00197] shown in Figure 47 B and Figure 47 C; along with clapboard 172 moves towards distal direction; because second bar 174c of connecting plate 174 and being connected of the 3rd spring clip 157c have prevented that by protector the second bar 174c of connecting plate 174 breaks away from from the 3rd clamp 157c prematurely.Especially, along with connecting plate 174 towards distal direction motion, the tip of tip that protector 198 acts on the 3rd spring clip 157c to prevent tip because the power that the distally power that the second bar 174c is produced is applied to it and outwards opening.
[00198] as shown in figure 50, along with push rod 156 towards distal direction motion, its pusher 156c engage farthest side clip " C " after stride portion and begin and promote farthest side clip " C " towards the distally mode.Along with push rod 156 towards distal direction moved farthest side clip " C ", farthest side clip " C " breaks away from and begins to enter into the path 10 6a of jaw 106 from the rear of the tang 164b of clip carrier 164.
[00199] shown in Figure 51, along with clapboard 172 moves towards distal direction, its far-end 172a enters between the jaw 106, makes jaw 106 outwards open.
[00200] shown in Figure 52 to Figure 54,, clapboard lock 190 further moves towards distal direction in case, then having prevented clapboard 172 near the physics backstop that is formed among the lower house 152b.Yet drive rod 140 continues towards distal direction motion connecting plate 174.Because connecting plate 174 is continued distad to promote; so in case the most advanced and sophisticated distal motion of the tip of the 3rd spring clip 157c is to surpassing protector 198; the power on the second bar 174c of then acting on enough makes the tip of the 3rd spring clip 157c outwards open and makes the second bar 174c from throwing off therebetween, thereby makes connecting plate 174 continue to move towards distal direction.
[00201] now forwards Figure 55 to Figure 69 to, along with trigger 108 is further pushed or activate second stage by initial stroke from the phase I of initial stroke, trigger 108 makes forked link 122 further towards distal direction motion crankshaft cheek 124, and this make to drive adapter 134 and make plunger 135 further distal motion and further towards distal movement drive rod 140 subsequently.Along with plunger 135 distal motion, spring 136 is compressed further amount.
[00202] meanwhile, along with crankshaft cheek 124 towards distal movement, the tooth of its tooth bar 124a with respect to the tooth 224a of ratchet 224 further towards proximal movement.Like this, under the situation of not finishing complete distally stroke, crankshaft cheek 124 still can not turn back to nearest side position.
[00203] shown in Figure 55, along with crankshaft cheek 124 after the distal movement preset distance, its arm 124d engages or the finger 128b of contact activated plate 128.Along with crankshaft cheek 124 further advances towards the distally, crankshaft cheek 124 promotes or pulling actuation plate 128 towards distal direction, thereby activates count actuation lever 130 to activate counting mechanism 132.
[00204] especially, when actuation plate 128 towards distal movement enough apart from the time, in its groove 128b with the second arm 130b of cam driven count actuation lever 130 and impel its rotation, cause the first arm 130a of count actuation lever 130 to engage counting mechanism 132, thereby realize the variation in its display.Especially, the display that shows the number of remaining clip in the operation applicator 100 will reduce one.Selectively, the clip counting mechanism will increase by one or produce some other variation.
When [00205] further being pushed along with trigger 108, arm 127 continues the raceway 126a of translation by feedback means 126.In this, in the extruding of trigger 108, the operation clip is loaded in the jaw 106.Correspondingly, arm 127 will interact with the step 126b among the raceway 126a that is formed at feedback means 126 and produce and inform that user's clip has been loaded into the audition/sense of touch indication in the jaw.
[00206] shown in Figure 57, along with drive rod 140 further moves towards distal direction, drive rod 140 continues to promote connecting plate 174 towards distal direction.Because push rod 156 still optionally is connected in machine plate 174 by the second spring clip 157b, so push rod 156 is further advanced or drags towards distal direction.Yet, because the 3rd spring clip 157c of clapboard 172 is broken away from by the second bar 174c from connecting plate 174, so clapboard 172 is not further advanced or drag towards distal direction.
[00207] shown in Figure 56 A to Figure 56 C, along with push rod 156 continues motion towards distal direction, the near-end of the side groove 156f of push rod 156 engages a pair of fin 162b of pushing plate 162, and push rod 156 advances or drag pushing plate 162 towards distal direction.
[00208] shown in Figure 56 B and Figure 56 C, along with slurcam 162 advances towards the distally, spring clip 157d breaks away from nearside and keeps groove 152m and engage the distally that is formed among the upper shell 152a keeping groove 152n.
[00209] shown in Figure 57, drive rod 140 is towards distal direction motion, optionally moves to nearest side position among the elongated slot 140a of drive rod 140 up to the protruding 182a of slip joint 182.
[00210] along with push rod 156 continues towards the distal direction motion, push rod 156 continues to promote pushing plate 162 towards distal direction by fin 162b.Shown in Figure 58, along with pushing plate 162 moves towards distal direction, the proximal of window 162a that the distally of clip follower 166 projection 166b is received the distally projection 166b of clip follower 166 engages so that promote clip follower 166 with respect to clip carrier 164 towards distal direction, thereby makes the amount that this stack gripper " C " advances to be increased.Along with clip follower 166 towards distal direction motion, make the relative distal window 164a of its nearside projection 166c distad advance a window 164a from the relative proximal window 164a of clip carrier 164 to clip carrier 164.
[00211] shown in Figure 58 to Figure 60, along with push rod 156 towards distal direction motion, the first spring clip 157a bullet that is supported on the push rod 156 is locked on the boss 152h of upper shell 152a, thereby push rod 156 is remained on forward position.
[00212] in addition, shown in Figure 61, along with push rod 156 continues to make this stack gripper " C " move towards distal direction towards the distal direction motion.
[00213] shown in Figure 62, along with push rod 156 moves towards distal direction, its pusher 156c continues to enter into fully up to farthest side clip " C1 " towards distal direction moved farthest side clip " C1 " the path 10 6a of jaw 106.In operation, the pusher 156c of push rod 156 during the formation of described clip " C " with the clip " C " of packing into after the portion of striding keep in touch so that stability is provided and holds it in suitable position for it.
[00214] shown in Figure 63, along with drive rod 140 further moves towards distal direction, its shoulder 140c contact drives the most proximal end of passage 168.Like this, along with drive rod 140 further moves towards distal direction, drive rod 140 is towards the distal direction motion or promote to drive passage 168.
[00215] shown in Figure 64, along with driving passage 168, be formed at the tooth 194c of the proximal contact clapboard releasing device 194 of the window 168e among the sidewall 168b that drives passage 168 towards the distal direction motion, make clapboard releasing device 194 rotate.Along with clapboard releasing device 194 rotation, the tooth 190e of its mallet 194b extruding clapboard lock 190 is to release tooth 190e or knocking-on from the rear of inclination lug 152f.In this case, shown in Figure 65, allow biasing member 192 decompressions, thereby towards proximal direction motion clapboard lock 190.Shown in Figure 66, along with clapboard lock 190 moves towards proximal direction, because clapboard 172 is connected on the clapboard lock 190, so clapboard 172 moves so that its far-end 172a is disengaged from withdrawing from jaw 106 towards proximal direction.
[00216] shown in Figure 58 and Figure 67 to Figure 69, because push rod 156 remains on distal position by the first spring clip 157a with being connected of boss 152h, so along with drive rod 140 further moves towards distal direction, the power that acts on connecting plate 174 makes the second spring clip 157b break away from from the first bar 174b of connecting plate 174, thereby allows connecting plate 174 to continue to move towards distal direction.
[00217] shown in Figure 67 A to Figure 69 A, in one embodiment, the tip of the tip of the second spring clip 157b can be configured to outwards outstanding so that engage the surface (referring to Fig. 9) of upper back housing 154, thereby prevents the too early disengaging of the second spring clip 157b from the first bar 174b of connecting plate 174.In this embodiment, groove can be formed in the surface of rear portion upper shell 154, with the outside open position consistency of tip possibility of the second spring clip 157b, thereby allows the first bar 174b disengaging and the continuation of connecting plate 174 to move towards distal direction.
[00218] shown in Figure 70 to Figure 75, activated the final stage that enters initial stroke along with trigger 108, trigger 108 makes forked link 122 further towards distal direction motion crankshaft cheek 124, and this makes driving adapter 134 and plunger 135 further towards distal movement and further towards distal movement drive rod 140.Along with driving adapter 134 towards distal movement, spring 136 is compressed further amount.
[00219] meanwhile, along with crankshaft cheek 124 towards distal movement, the tooth of its tooth bar 124a with respect to the tooth 224a of ratchet 224 further towards proximal movement to such position: in this position, enter the proximal flutes 124c of crankshaft cheek 124 along with the tooth 224a of ratchet 224, the tooth of tooth bar 124a breaks away from from the tooth 224a of ratchet 224, itself resets thereby make.Like this, when trigger 108 unclamped, crankshaft cheek 124 can be back to nearest side position.
[00220] shown in Figure 72 to Figure 74, during the final stage of the initial stroke of trigger 108, driving passage 168 and strap 167 moves towards distal direction with respect to jaw 106, so that drive the cam face 106b that the distal side edge of passage 168 engages jaw 106, make jaw 106 close and form therebetween clamp " C1 ".Shown in Figure 74, the pusher 156c of push rod 156 remains on the distal position place, is contacting with the portion of striding behind the described clip " C " during the formation of described clip " C ".
[00221] shown in Figure 55, along with trigger 108 is extruded last amount, arm 127 continues the raceway 126a of translation by feedback means 126.In this, in the extruding of trigger 108, operation clip " C1 " is completed into by jaw 106.Correspondingly, arm 127 will interact with another step 126b among the raceway 126a that is formed at feedback means 126, and produce and inform that the audition/sense of touch of performing the operation the user clip " C1 " having formed by jaw 106 indicates.
[00222] shown in Figure 75, operation clip " C1 " can form or be crimped onto in vascular " V " or any other biological tissue.
[00223] now forwards Figure 76 to Figure 84 to, the operation of the applicator 100 when expression is back to not extruding or unactuated position along with trigger 108.Shown in Figure 76, along with trigger turns back to not extrusion position, spring is allowed to remove compression, thereby throw crank plate 124 moves towards proximal direction, and this makes plunger towards proximal movement and towards the proximal movement drive rod.Because ratchet 224 has resetted, now allow crankshaft cheek 124 proximal motion to enter the distal recesses of crankshaft cheek 124 once more up to the tooth 224a of ratchet 224.
[00224] shown in Figure 76 A, along with crankshaft cheek 124 towards proximal movement, its arm 124d breaks away from the finger 128b of actuation plate 128, makes actuation plate 128 move towards proximal direction.Along with actuation plate 128 towards proximal movement, in its groove 128b,, and impel second arm 130b rotation with the second arm 130b of cam driven count actuation lever 130, cause the first arm 130a of count actuation lever 130 to break away from from counting mechanism 132.
[00225] shown in Figure 77, along with drive rod 140 moves towards proximal direction, drive rod 140 is by first bar 174b pulling connecting plate 174.Along with connecting plate 174 moves towards proximal direction, the first bar 174b engages with the tip of the second spring clip 157b and promotes push rod 156 by the second spring clip 157b towards proximal direction.
[00226] shown in Figure 78, along with masterpiece is used on the push rod 156 with towards proximal direction motion push rod 156, described retentivity of making every effort to overcome the boss 152h that has obeyed the first spring clip 157a and upper shell 152a, thus discharge the first spring clip 157a and make push rod 156 move from boss 152h towards proximal direction.
[00227] shown in Figure 79, along with push rod 156 continues towards the proximal direction motion, the fin 162b of the distal engagement pushing plate 162 of its side groove 156f also makes pushing plate 162 move towards proximal direction.Along with push rod 156 moves towards proximal direction, push rod nose 156c stings at the rear of the farthest side clip of this remaining heap clip " C ", thereby becomes new farthest side clip " C1 ".
[00228] shown in Figure 80, along with pushing plate 162 moves towards proximal direction, the proximal of the window 164a of the nearside projection 166c engaging clip carrier 164 of clip follower 166 is so that keep the relative position of clip follower 166 in clip carrier 164.When pushing plate 162 towards proximal direction motion, make the relative distal window 162a of its distally projection 166b distad advance a window 162a from the relative proximal window 162a of pushing plate 162 to pushing plate 162.
[00229] shown in Figure 81, when push rod 156 stops its proximal movement, when it engages with the boss of giving prominence to from the inner surface of upper half-shell 152a, the proximal movement that continues of connecting plate 174 will make the bar 174b that wins engage once more with the second spring clip 157b.Along with the proximal movement of push rod 156 stops, the proximal movement that continues of connecting plate 174 will make the bar 174b that wins engage once more with the second spring clip 157b.
[00230] shown in Figure 82 and Figure 83, along with connecting plate 174 moves towards proximal direction, because the proximal movement of drive rod 140, the second bar 174c engages with the tip of the 3rd spring clip 157c and promotes clapboard 172 by the 3rd spring clip 157c towards proximal direction.Along with clapboard 172 moves towards proximal direction, clapboard lock 190 is towards the physics backstops of proximal direction motion in clapboard lock 190 contact housing lower half 152b, thus the proximal movement of prevention clapboard 172.In case the tip of the tip of the 3rd spring clip 157c surpasses protector 198 towards distal movement, then when clapboard 172 stops its proximal movement, the proximal movement that continues of connecting plate 174 will make the second bar 174c engage once more with the 3rd spring clip 157c.
[00231] when trigger 108 is back to the unactuated position, arm 127 with translation by feedback means 126 raceway 126a and interact with another step 126b among the raceway 126a that is formed at feedback means 126, and produce audition/sense of touch indication of informing user's operation applicator 100 and being reset and having prepared to launch once more.
[00232] now forward Figure 84 to Figure 85 to, the structure of expression operation applicator 100 is thereafter the application of last operation clip " C ".Shown in Figure 84 and Figure 85, when last operation clip has been pushed into and has formed, push rod 156 still is in and advances or distal position, clip follower 166 is progressively advanced enough amounts by graduated disc 158, its latch plate 165 is passed through the window 162a of pushing plate 162 to upper offset, and enters into the distal window 156d of push rod 156.The location of latch plate 165 in the distal window 156d of push rod 156 makes the window catch 156e of proximal window 156d enter the also window 165b of engage latch plate 165.Like this, because clip follower 166 remains on distal position by its distally projection 166c that engages in the distal window 164a of clip carrier 164, latch plate 165 engages the window catch 156e of push rods 156, thereby and anti-throw-out lever 156 turn back to nearest side position ratchet 224 resetted.
[00233] shown in Figure 86,, makes and itself reset thereby the tooth bar 124a of ratchet 224 and crankshaft cheek 124 keeps engaging and be not allowed to enter proximal flutes 124c because push rod 156 can not or be prevented from moving to its complete proximal position.Because can not making, ratchet 224 itself resets, so crankshaft cheek 124 is lockable or distad stops or proximal movement.
