In a process of loading a stent, the pull wire (60) applies an acting force on the fixing anchor (30), and the fixing anchor (30) is fixedly connected to the sheath core (20) and thus drives the sheath core (20), the TIP head (40) and the stent to move synchronously. Since the pull wire (60) does not directly come into contact with the stent, the stent can be prevented from being deformed due to the pressing of the pull wire (60) on the stent.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 22, 2021Publication date: January 4, 2024Applicant: Lifetech Scientific (Shenzhen) Co. Ltd.Inventors: Caiping Liu, Kui Liu, Yunchen Xia
