[0042] 形状释放机构28的目的是当在使用中阻挡在患者身体的组织上时释放这种环形形状26。 [0042] The object shape release mechanism 28 is released such an annular shape 26 when in use on a patient's body in a barrier tissue. 这可能导致复杂和困难。 This can lead to complications and difficulties. 如图所示，环形形状26是一个紧密缠绕的构造。 As shown, the annular shape 26 is a tightly wound configuration. 然而，通过相对于探针20将导管包壳14从附图中的图1中所示的位置延伸到附图中的图2中所示的位置，通过相对于手柄12延伸套管30，探针20的远端部分24从导管包壳14的远端部分18抽回，而且采用靠近如附图中的图2中的80处所示的导管包壳14的远端部分18的位置。 However, the probe 20 through the catheter sheath 14 extends from a position shown in the figures in the accompanying drawings FIG. 1 to the position shown in Figure 2, with respect to extend through the sleeve 30 relative to the handle 12, the probe the distal end portion of the needle 20 from the distal end 24 of catheter sheath 14 is withdrawn portion 18, and the use of the distal end of the catheter sheath position shown at 80 in the drawings as close to 214 in FIG portion 18. 当探针20的远端部分24相对于导管包壳14的远端部分18在近端被抽回时，探针的远端部分24中的张力得以减小，从而导致远端部分采用一个更拉长的、较不紧密缠绕的形状，而且促进导管包壳14的成形部分从该成形部分可能已被缠住的组织中解开或释放。 When the distal end portion 24 of the probe 20 relative to the distal portion of the catheter sheath 14 at the proximal end 18 is withdrawn, the distal end portion of the probe 24 of the tension is reduced, leading to a more distal part is elongated, less tightly wound shape, but also promotes the catheter sheath portion 14 shaped to unlock or released from the forming section may have been entangled in the organization.
[0043] 如上文所描述，导管手柄12包括一个转向控制机构72。 [0043] As described above, catheter handle 12 includes a steering control mechanism 72. 此转向控制机构72用于使穿过患者的脉管系统的导管包壳18的远端部分转向，而且还用于实现导管包壳14的远端部分处的环形构造26的偏转。 This means 72 for controlling the steering of the catheter sheath through the patient's vasculature distal end portion 18 of the steering, but also for achieving the catheter sheath 14 at the distal end portion of the annular structure 26 is deflected.
[0044] 在更详细地描述转向控制机构72之前，还将描述探针20以便理解导管10的探针20的操作。 [0044] Before describing in more detail the steering control mechanism 72, the probe 20 will also be described to understand the operation of the probe 20 of the catheter 10. 图9展示探针20的一个近端部分，图11展示安装在导管手柄12的手柄本体32的这些壳体部分34中的一个壳体部分中的探针的近端部分，图12展示探针20的一个远端部分，而且图13展示呈一个外部管状构件82的形式的探针20的一个部件的一个远端部分。 The proximal portion of the probe of FIG. 9 shows a proximal end portion of the probe 20, and Figure 11 shows a housing 34 mounted on the portion of the catheter handle 32 of the handle body 12 in a housing portion, FIG. 12 shows a probe a distal end portion 20, and FIG 13 shows a distal portion of a form member forms an outer tubular member 82 of the probe 20.

[0048] 如附图中的图9中所示，拉线100的一个近端被安装到呈一个滑块104的形式的一个探针载体上。 As shown in the accompanying drawings FIG. 9 [0048], a proximal end of the pull wire 100 is mounted to a carrier as a probe in the form of a slider 104. 外部管状构件82的一个近端承载一个安装套管106，而且类似地，管状致动器92的一个近端承载一个安装套管108。 A proximal end of the outer tubular member 82 carries a mounting sleeve 106, and similarly, the proximal end of a tubular actuator 92 carries a mounting sleeve 108.
[0049] 转向控制机构72包括一个细长的中空圆柱形构件110。 [0049] The steering control mechanism 72 comprises an elongated hollow cylindrical member 110. 与导管手柄12的其他部件的情况一样，圆柱形构件110包括两个部分112，这两个部分112在所说明的实施方案中经由互补的多个夹子114和接纳构造116而被夹在一起。 As with the other components of the catheter handle 12, the cylindrical member 110 includes two portions 112, 112 via the two complementary portions of a plurality of clips 114 and 116 are configured to receive the illustrated embodiment are clamped together. 与手柄本体32的这些壳体部分34的情况一样，圆柱形构件110的这些部分112也可以被铰接在一起，并且夹或旋拧闭合。 As with the housing 32 of the handle body portion 34 of the case, the portions 112 of the cylindrical member 110 may be hinged together, and screwed or clamp closed.
[0050] 在转向控制机构72的一个远端处限定了呈径向向外延伸的把手118的形式的一个凸起的隆起，以便被临床医生的拇指接合以用于促进导管包壳14的远端在使用中的转向。 [0050] defines the form of a radially outwardly extending handle 118 in a steering control mechanism 72 at the distal end of a projection of the ridges, so as to be far from the clinician's thumb to engage the catheter sheath 14 for facilitating the It moves in use.
[0051] 参看附图中的图11，探针20的外部管状构件82的安装套管106被展示为安装在转向控制机构72的这些部分112中的一个部分中的一个支座120中。 [0051] Referring to the drawings in FIG. 11, the probe 20 of the outer tubular member 82 of the mounting sleeve 106 is shown mounted to a support portion in a steering control mechanism 72 which portion 112 in 120. 另一个部分112可以容纳支座120的一个对应的部分。 Another portion 112 may accommodate a corresponding abutment portion 120. 在手柄本体32的通道40中的支座120的近端限定另外一个支座122，而且使管状致动器92的安装套管108与支座122固定。 The support 40 at the proximal end of the channel 32 of the handle body 120 further defines a seat 122, and the tubular actuator 92 of the mounting sleeve 108 and the abutment 122 is fixed. 将了解，随着转向控制机构72在箭头124的方向上相对于手柄本体12移动，发生在探针20的外部管状构件82与内部管状致动器92之间的相对移动，从而导致探针20的远端的偏转，如附图中的图13中的箭头98所不。 It will be appreciated, as the steering control mechanism 72 move relative to the handle body 12, takes place in the interior of the tubular 92 relative movement between the actuator probe 20 of the outer tubular member 82 relative to the direction of arrow 124, causing the probe 20 the distal end of deflection indicated by arrows in FIG. 13 of the accompanying drawings is not 98.
[0052] 如附图中的图11中所说明，在固定地安排在手柄本体32的通道40中的一个半圆形导向柱126周围引导拉线100的近端部分，而且拉线100的近端与滑块104固定地安装。 [0052] As described in 11 of the accompanying drawings, fixedly arranged in the guide wire proximal portion 100 of the channel 126 in the handle body around the post 32 in a semi-circular guide 40, and the pull wire proximal end 100 and the slider 104 is fixedly mounted.
[0053] 在一个实施方案中，探针10包括一个形状或大小调整机构128。 [0053] In one embodiment, the probe 10 includes a mechanism 128 to adjust the size or shape. 大小调整机构128包括呈一个套环130的形式的一个大小调整器，该大小调整器被安排在导管手柄12的手柄本体32的外部上。 Adjustment unit 128 comprises, in a form of a collar 130 of a sizing device, the sizing is arranged on the outside of the catheter handle 32 of the handle body 12.
[0054] 探针载体104形成大小调整机构128的部分，而且被可轴向滑动地安排在导管手柄12的手柄本体32的通道40内。 [0054] The carrier 104 is formed probe size adjustment mechanism portion 128, and is axially slidably arranged within the channel 40 in catheter handle 32 of the handle body 12. 与导管手柄12的其他部分一样，套环130是由两个部分132构成，这两个部分132经由互补的夹子134和接纳构造136夹在一起(图8)。 As with the other portion of the catheter handle 12, the collar 130 is constituted by two portions 132, 132 via two complementary clamp portions 134 and 136 configured to receive clamped together (FIG. 8). 在另一实施方案中，如附图中的图14中所说明，套环130的这些部分132通过在附图中的图14中所示的铰链的一个翼138被铰接在一起。 In another embodiment, as described in 14 of the accompanying drawings, a wing hinge 132 shown in these portions by the collar 130 in the drawings are hinged together 14138 FIG. 每一个部分132的另一侧经由这些夹子134和接纳构造136夹在一起。 The other side of a portion 132 via each of the clips 134 and 136 configured to receive clamped together.
[0055] 如附图中的图8中更清楚地展示，导管手柄的手柄本体32的这些壳体部分34具有一个收腰区以限定一个凹陷140 (图8)。 [0055] As shown more clearly in 8 of the drawings, the housing 32 of the handle body of the catheter handle 34 having a waisted portion to define a recessed area 140 (FIG. 8). 套环130被接纳在凹陷140中，且受到约束不能进行轴向运动，但能够围绕手柄本体32的一个纵向轴线自由旋转。 The collar 130 is received in the recess 140, and the axial movement can not be restrained, but the handle body rotatable about a longitudinal axis 32 is free to rotate.
[0056] 每一个壳体部分34的凹陷区140中进一步具有一个切去一部分的部分142，使得当这些壳体部分34配合在一起时，在手柄本体32中限定一个纵向延伸的槽缝。 [0056] The area of ​​each recessed portion 34 of a housing 140 further has a cutaway portion 142, such that when the housing parts 34 are fitted together, defining a longitudinally extending slot 32 in the handle body seam.
[0057] 导管10的大小调整机构128包括套环130的每一个部分132的一个内表面上的呈凸轮凹槽144(在附图中的图10中最清楚地展示)的形式的互补引导构造。 [0057] The size adjustment mechanism 128 includes a catheter 10 in the form of a collar of the cam groove 144 (the most clearly in Figure 10 in the drawings) on a surface of a portion 132 of each guide 130 in the complementary configuration . 呈一个销146的形式的一个互补引导随动件被安排在滑块104的与拉线100被连接到其上的一端相反的那一端上。 The form of a pin 146 in the form of a complementary guide follower is arranged to be connected to that end of the wire 100 to which the opposite end of the slider 104. 销146穿过手柄本体中的由这些壳体部分34的切去一部分的部分142形成的槽缝而突出，而且被接纳在套环130的凸轮凹槽144中。 The pin 146 passes through a portion of the housing cut-away portion 142 formed in the handle body portion 34 slots and projections, and is received in the cam groove 144 of the collar 130. 因此，套环130的旋转转变为滑块146的轴向移位。 Thus, rotation of the collar 146 of the slider 130 is converted axial displacement. 滑块146的这种轴向移位导致在拉线100与探针80的外部管状构件82之间的相对移动，从而导致探针20的远端部分24处的环形形状26的大小的增加或减小。 This axial displacement of the slider 146 results in relative movement between the wire 82 and the outer tubular member 100 in the probe 80, resulting in increasing the size of an annular shape at the distal end portion 24 of the probe 20 or 26 minus small.
[0058] 因此，在使用中，通过套环130的旋转，临床医生可以控制环形形状26的大小。 [0058] Thus, in use, by rotation of the collar 130, the clinician can control the size of the annular shape 26. 这是一个简单的单手操作。 This is a simple one-handed operation. 将了解的是，除此之外或作为替代，大小调整机构128可作为一个第二转向或偏转机构来操作。 It will be appreciated that, additionally or alternatively, the size adjustment mechanism 128 may operate as a second steering or deflection mechanism.
[0059] 有可能的是调整相对于手柄本体32移位转向控制机构72所要求的力。 [0059] It is possible to adjust the force of the handle body 32 relative to the steering control mechanism 72 shift required. 出于此目的，提供一个摩擦元件150。 For this purpose, there is provided a friction member 150. 摩擦元件150包括一个螺钉152和垫圈组件154,螺钉152被接纳在手柄本体32的壳体部分34中的一个螺纹插口156中，如附图中的图8中所示。 A friction member 150 includes a screw 152 and washer assembly 154, screw 152 is received in a threaded socket 156 of the handle portion 34 of the housing body 32 is, as in the figures shown in FIG. 8. 螺钉穿过在转向控制机构72的圆柱形构件110的这些部分112中的一个部分的一个近端延伸肢状物160中限定的一个槽缝158而突出。 A proximal end portion of a screw portion 112 passes through the cylindrical member 72 of the steering control mechanism 110 in the limbs 160 extending in a slot 158 ​​defined in the protrusion.
[0060] 导管10包括一个连接器162,该连接器被安排在导管手柄12的手柄本体32的近端36处。 [0060] The catheter 10 includes a connector 162, which connector is arranged at the proximal end of catheter handle 32 of the handle body 12 of the 36. 连接器162具有多个端子164，导管包壳14的电极16的导体(未图示)连接到这些端子上。 Connector 162 having a plurality of terminals 164, a conductor (not shown) of the catheter sheath 16 of the electrode 14 is connected to these terminals. 连接器162位于手柄本体32内，而且可以在必要的情况下通过分开这些壳体部分34来移除和更换。 The connector 162 is located within the handle body 32, but also by separating the housing parts 34 to be removed and replaced at necessary. 连接器162连接到一个诊断/治疗系统的一个患者缆线，导管10与该患者缆线一起使用。 Connector cable 162 is connected to a patient a diagnostic / therapeutic system for use with the catheter 10 to the patient cable.
[0061] 所描述的实施方案的一个特别的优点是，提供了一种适合临床医生单手使用的紧凑的导管手柄。 [0061] A particular advantage of the described embodiment is to provide a compact clinician catheter handle suitable for use with one hand. 手柄12容易地配合在临床医生的手中，而且例如转向控制机构72和大小调整机构128等所有操作控制都容易用手操作。 The handle 12 is easily fitted in the hands of the clinician, and all operations such as the steering control mechanism 72 and the size adjustment mechanism 128 and the like are easy to be operated by hand. 转向控制机构72和大小调整机构128能够由临床医生单手操纵，临床医生偏好于这样。 The steering control mechanism 72 and the size adjustment mechanism 128 can be manipulated with one hand by the clinician, the clinician to such preferences. 这使得他们能够更容易地专注于定位和操作导管10。 This makes it easier for them to concentrate on the positioning and operation of the catheter 10.
[0062] 另外，导管变得越来越贵。 [0062] In addition, the catheter becomes more and more expensive. 由于导管在潜在对生物有害的环境中使用，大多数导管使用一次并且然后便被扔掉。 Since the catheter for use in potentially biologically hazardous environments, most catheters will be used once and then thrown away. 这常常是不必要的，而且导管可以被重新处理。 This is often not required, and the catheter can be re-processed. 通过提供上文所描述的模块型手柄10，触及手柄10的内部以便于对各种部件并且更具体来说对导管包壳14和探针20或者连接器元件162进行更换或整修是一个容易的过程。 By providing the above-described module-type handle 10, the handle 10 so as to touch the inside of the various components in and more particularly to the catheter sheath 14 and the probe 20 or the connector element 162 is a replacement or refurbished easy process. 手柄12是塑料材料的模制物并且一般是低成本的。 The handle 12 is a molded plastic material and was typically low cost. 因此，假如手柄12被体液污染并且无法充分清洁，那么扔掉手柄12并且用一个新的手柄来更换它是一个相对便宜的过程。 Thus, if the handle 12 and the body fluids are not sufficiently cleaned, and then throw away the handle 12 with a new handle to replace it is a relatively inexpensive process. 虽然如此，在必要的情况下，因为手柄12是由模块部分构成的，所以仅那些零件需要被更换。 Nonetheless, if necessary, because the handle portion 12 is composed of modules, so that only those parts need to be replaced.
