Patent number: 10806453Abstract: A stapling head assembly includes a cartridge support having a proximal end, a connecting tube, a cutter pushing rod, and a lockout mechanism. The tube includes a distal end connected to the proximal end. The rod is movably set inside the tube. The mechanism is connected to the tube, and includes a pressing block and a pushing block. The pressing block is used to lock the proximal end to prevent the rod from moving before the assembly is used. The pressing block is rotatable between a first position and a second position relative to the tube. The pushing block is used to push the pressing block to rotate from the first position towards the second position. The pushing block is located at one side of the pressing block, and is movable between a third position and a fourth position relative to the tube along a longitudinal direction.Type: GrantFiled: December 30, 2015Date of Patent: October 20, 2020Assignee: SUZHOU TOUCHSTONE INTERNATIONAL MEDICAL SCIENCE CO., LTD.Inventors: Wangdong Chen, Yongwang Pei

Patent number: 10675029Abstract: A linear surgical stapler includes an upper staple cartridge receiving half-section, a lower staple cartridge receiving half-section and a staple cartridge assembly. The staple cartridge assembly includes a cutting groove in which a reciprocating movement cutter is mounted. The cutter includes a bottom surface and a knife blade located at a far end of the cutter. The staple cartridge assembly includes a restricting member mounted therein and an elastic stopper. The elastic stopper abuts against the restricting member when the staple cartridge assembly is in an initial state. The restricting member breaks away from the staple cartridge assembly when the staple cartridge assembly is in a firing complete state, thereby preventing the cutter from sliding towards the far end of the staple cartridge. As a result, misfiring throughout the whole operation of the linear surgical stapler is prevented.Type: GrantFiled: February 15, 2018Date of Patent: June 9, 2020Assignee: TOUCHSTONE INTERNATIONAL MEDICAL SCIENCE CO., LTD.Inventors: Wangdong Chen, Yongwang Pei, Jing Zhou

Patent number: 10070864Abstract: A loading unit assembly used for a linear surgical stapler, which includes a staple cartridge frame and a knife driver beam. The knife driver beam has a movable safety block defined on a surface of a proximal end thereof, and a protrusion is correspondingly defined on the staple cartridge frame. When the loading unit assembly is at its initial position, a front surface at a distal end of the safety block engages with the protrusion to stop a movement of the knife driver beam and the safety block. When the loading unit assembly is at its working position, the safety block is relatively separated from the protrusion.Type: GrantFiled: June 18, 2015Date of Patent: September 11, 2018Assignee: TOUCHSTONE INTERNATIONAL MEDICAL SCIENCE CO., LTD.Inventors: Wangdong Chen, Tuo Shu, Kaifen Fu, Yanping Ye, Yongwang Pei

Publication number: 20170354413Abstract: A stapling head assembly of a suturing and cutting apparatus for endoscopic surgery includes a cartridge, a cartridge support detachably connected to the cartridge, an actuating block including an unlocking component set movably in the cartridge, a cutter, and a lockout mechanism. The cutter is adapted to move longitudinally along the cartridge, between a first position and a second position. The mechanism includes a lockout block set in said cartridge support and transversely movable with respect to the support between third and fourth positions, and a flexible component set between the support and the lockout block and actuating the lockout block to move from the third to the fourth positions. When the flexible component is under compression, the cutter can move from the first to the second positions. After the actuating block is actuated, the lockout block moves to the fourth position under action of the flexible component.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 30, 2015Publication date: December 14, 2017Applicant: Suzhou Touchstone International Medical Science Co., Ltd.Inventors: Wangdong Chen, Tuo Shu, Kaifen Fu, Yongwang Pei

Patent number: 9629634Abstract: An introducer accessory for being fitted with a circular stapler is disclosed, and pertains to the technical field of medical instrument. The introducer accessory at least comprises a sleeve portion sleeved around a distal end of the circular stapler and an introducing portion disposed at a distal end of the sleeve portion. And the introducing portion comprises a spiral member in a conical shape with a cavity and a traction member, the traction member extends in the cavity of spiral member to connect with the distal end of the spiral member such that when the traction member is pulled by an external force, the distal end of the spiral member is pulled out by the traction member through the cavity which causes the spiral member to be unwound internally and finally to form a strip body to withdraw through the circular stapler. Thus, the withdrawing process of introducer accessory can avoid injury to patient during surgery.Type: GrantFiled: August 23, 2012Date of Patent: April 25, 2017Assignee: Suzhou Touchstone International Medical Science Co., Ltd.Inventors: Wangdong Chen, Min Sun, Teng Shan, Yongwang Pei, Shuicheng Ding, Zongshun Wang, Kai Liu
