La molette poussoir 4b présente un certain poids permettant lorsque le porte aiguille 1 est lâché par le chirurgien que ledit porte aiguille vienne se plaquer contre la paroi interne du site opératoire évitant tout risque de blessure susceptible d'être causé par le profil effilé 2a la canule cylindrique 2. Les moyens de retenue 5 permettent de maintenir le pousse aiguille 4 par rapport à la canule cylindrique 2, de manière que l'extrémité libre de la tige 4a opposée à la molette poussoir 4b soit toujours en appuie contre l'aiguille chirurgicale 3. The internal bore 4g of the cylindrical rod 4a has, opposite the pusher wheel 4b, a free end formed of an internal chamfer 4d with a conical profile ensuring on the one hand the introduction of the suture 3a inside. of said rod and secondly the guiding of the surgical needle 3 in the axis yy 'of the cylindrical cannula 2 (Figures 2A and 2B). The push wheel 4b has a certain weight allowing when the needle holder 1 is released by the surgeon that said needle holder comes to press against the inner wall of the operating site avoiding any risk of injury that may be caused by the tapered profile 2a the cannula 2. The retaining means 5 can maintain the needle push 4 relative to the cylindrical cannula 2, so that the free end of the rod 4a opposite the push wheel 4b is always pressed against the surgical needle 3 .
Les moyens de retenue 5 sont constitués d'une platine 5a solidaire sur l'une de ses faces de deux pinces 5b et 5ç formant deux clips de fixation. Chaque pince 5b et 5ç_ coopère respectivement avec une empreinte 4ç_ aménagée dans la molette poussoir 4b du pousse aiguille 4, et avec une empreinte 2e réalisée dans la poignée de préhension 2b canule cylindrique 2. On a représenté en figures 3 et 4 une première réalisation du profil effilé 2a prévue au niveau de la première extrémité de la canule cylindrique 2. The retaining means 5 consist of a plate 5a integral on one of its faces with two clamps 5b and 5c forming two fastening clips. Each clamp 5b and 5c cooperates respectively with a footprint 4c_ arranged in the push wheel 4b of the needle push 4, and with a footprint 2e made in the handle 2b cylindrical cannula 2. FIGS. 3 and 4 show a first embodiment of the tapered profile 2 a provided at the first end of the cylindrical cannula 2.
Le profil effilé 2a est prévue pour assurer le percement des tissus du patient et la pénétration de la canule cylindrique 2 jusqu'au niveau du site opératoire. The tapered profile 2a is provided to ensure the piercing of the patient's tissues and the penetration of the cylindrical cannula 2 to the level of the operative site.
Le profil effilé 2a de la canule cylindrique 2 est constitué sur une partie de la circonférence de ladite canule et dans plan horizontal parallèle à celui contenant les branches 2ç, 2d de la poignée de préhension 2b d'au moins un pan incliné 2f, tandis que l'autre partie de la circonférence de la canule est formé d'un profil bombé 2fl se rapprochant de l'axe longitudinal yy'. The tapered profile 2a of the cylindrical cannula 2 is formed on a part of the circumference of said cannula and in a horizontal plane parallel to that containing the branches 2c, 2d of the handle 2b of at least one inclined section 2f, while the other part of the circumference of the cannula is formed of a curved profile 2fl approximating the longitudinal axis yy '.
Le pan incliné 2f présente une inclinaison d'un angle β par rapport à l'axe longitudinal yy' de la canule cylindrique 2 qui est compris entre 10 et 16 degrés. The inclined face 2f has an inclination of an angle β relative to the longitudinal axis yy 'of the cylindrical cannula 2 which is between 10 and 16 degrees.
Le profil bombé 2a présente un rayon de courbure R compris entre 7 et 10 millimètres. Le profil bombé 2a permet de diminuer l'effet de carottage lors de la pénétration au travers des tissus cutanés du patient. On remarque que l'inclinaison du pan incliné 2f et les dimensions du rayon de courbure R du profil bombé 2a positionne la pointe du profil effilé 2a de la canule cylindrique 2 en dessous de l'axe longitudinal yy'. The curved profile 2a has a radius of curvature R of between 7 and 10 millimeters. The curved profile 2a makes it possible to reduce the coring effect during penetration through the skin tissues of the patient. Note that the inclination of the inclined face 2f and the dimensions of the radius of curvature R of the curved profile 2a positions the tip of the tapered profile 2a of the cylindrical cannula 2 below the longitudinal axis yy '.
On a montré en figures 5 et 6 une seconde réalisation du profil effilé 2a prévue au niveau de la première extrémité de la canule cylindrique 2. FIGS. 5 and 6 show a second embodiment of the tapered profile 2a provided at the first end of the cylindrical cannula 2.
Dans ce cas, on note que le pan incliné 2f peut être réalisé sur sa longueur par au moins deux pans inclinés 2fi et 2f_2 d'inclinaisons différentes par rapport à l'axe longitudinal yy' de la canule cylindrique 2. In this case, it is noted that the inclined section 2f can be made along its length by at least two inclined faces 2f and 2f_2 of different inclinations with respect to the longitudinal axis yy 'of the cylindrical cannula 2.
Ainsi, le premier pan incliné 2fi s'étend à partir du bord périphérique de la canule cylindrique 2 sur une longueur d'environ 3 millimètres et en direction de l'extrémité libre de ladite canule. Ce premier pan incliné 2fi présente une inclinaison d'un angle 6 par rapport à l'axe longitudinal yy' de la canule cylindrique 2 qui est compris entre 8 et 10 degrés. Thus, the first inclined portion 2fi extends from the peripheral edge of the cylindrical cannula 2 over a length of about 3 millimeters and towards the free end of said cannula. This first inclined face 2fi has an inclination of an angle 6 relative to the longitudinal axis yy 'of the cylindrical cannula 2 which is between 8 and 10 degrees.
Le second pan incliné 2fc se situe dans le prolongement du premier pan incliné 2fi pour se terminer au niveau de l'extrémité libre de la canule cylindrique 2. Le second pan incliné 2fe présente une inclinaison d'un angle Ω par rapport à l'axe longitudinal yy' de la canule cylindrique 2 qui est compris entre 12 et 16 degrés. The second inclined panel 2fc is located in the extension of the first inclined panel 2fi to terminate at the free end of the cylindrical cannula 2. The second inclined panel 2fe has an inclination of an angle Ω with respect to the axis longitudinal yy 'of the cylindrical cannula 2 which is between 12 and 16 degrees.
Le second pan incliné 2h comporte par rapport à l'axe longitudinal yy' des bords biseautés 2h dirigés en direction de l'extérieur de la canule cylindrique 2 afin de constituer une arête centrale tranchante 2i. On note que la liaison entre le premier et second pan incliné 2h et 2h est réalisé par des arêtes latérales tranchantes 2[ s'étendant en direction du centre de la canule cylindrique 2 et plus particulièrement de l'arête centrale tranchante 2i. Chaque arête latérale tranchante 2] est inclinée d'un angle a compris entre 15 et 20 degrés par rapport à l'axe longitudinal yy' en fonction du diamètre externe de la canule cylindrique 2. The second inclined portion 2h comprises, with respect to the longitudinal axis yy ', beveled edges 2h directed towards the outside of the cylindrical cannula 2 so as to form a central cutting edge 2i. Note that the connection between the first and second inclined pan 2h and 2h is achieved by cutting edges 2 [extending towards the center of the cylindrical cannula 2 and more particularly the central cutting edge 2i. Each sharp lateral edge 2] is inclined at an angle α between 15 and 20 degrees with respect to the longitudinal axis yy 'as a function of the external diameter of the cylindrical cannula 2.
On comprend que le profil effilé 2a de la canule cylindrique 2 permet au chirurgien de percer les tissus du patient afin d'amener le porte aiguille chirurgical 1 à proximité du site opératoire. Le diamètre externe de la canule cylindrique 2 est de faibles dimensions soit inférieures ou égales à 3 millimètres pour déterminer une cicatrice la plus petite possible. Le chirurgien prend et maintient entre les doigts de sa main le porte aiguille chirurgical 1 au moyen de la poignée de préhension 2b en position verrouillée comme une seringue pour exercer sur ce dernier un effort suffisant afin de traverser les tissus du patient. Dès que le porte aiguille chirurgical 1 est introduit par le chirurgien au niveau du site opératoire ce dernier retire les moyens de retenue 5 pour libérer le pousse aiguille 4 de la canule cylindrique 2. It is understood that the tapered profile 2a of the cylindrical cannula 2 allows the surgeon to pierce the tissues of the patient to bring the surgical needle holder 1 near the surgical site. The outer diameter of the cylindrical cannula 2 is small in size, less than or equal to 3 millimeters to determine the smallest possible scar. The surgeon takes and holds between the fingers of his hand the surgical needle holder 1 by means of the handle 2b in the locked position as a syringe to exert on the latter a sufficient effort to pass through the tissues of the patient. As soon as the surgical needle holder 1 is introduced by the surgeon at the operating site, the latter withdraws the retaining means 5 to release the needle push 4 of the cylindrical cannula 2.
Le chirurgien reprend et maintient entre les doigts de sa main le porte aiguille chirurgical 1 au moyen de la poignée de préhension 2b comme une seringue et appui sur la molette poussoir 4b du pousse aiguille 4 pour déplacer ce dernier à l'intérieur de la canule cylindrique 2 pour pousser et extraire au niveau de l'ouverture 2k du profil effilé 2a de ladite canule l'aiguille chirurgicale 3 (figure 2). Lorsque la molette poussoir 4b du pousse aiguille 4 est en appui contre le bord de la poignée de préhension 2b le chirurgien est certain que l'aiguille chirurgicale 3 solidaire de son fil de suture 3a soit suffisamment extraite de la canule cylindrique 2 pour être récupérée à l'aide d'une pince de suture connu en soi pour la réalisation des points de suture. The surgeon resumes and holds between the fingers of his hand the surgical needle holder 1 by means of the handle 2b as a syringe and pressing on the push wheel 4b of the needle push 4 to move the latter inside the cylindrical cannula 2 to push and extract at the opening 2k of the tapered profile 2a of said cannula the surgical needle 3 (Figure 2). When the push wheel 4b of the needle push 4 is resting against the edge of the handle 2b the surgeon is certain that the surgical needle 3 integral with its suture 3a is sufficiently extracted from the cylindrical cannula 2 to be recovered at using a suture clamp known per se for the realization of stitches.
Pour le retrait de l'aiguille chirurgical 3 du site opératoire le chirurgien au moyen de la pince de suture introduit cette dernière dans l'ouverture 2k délimitée par le profil effilé 2a de la canule cylindrique 2. Ainsi, par déformation élastique de l'aiguille chirurgical 3 le chirurgien peut l'introduire dans l'ouverture 2k et la faire pénétrer dans la canule cylindrique 2 permettant son retrait du site opératoire lors de l'extraction de ladite canule. For removal of the surgical needle 3 from the operating site the surgeon by means of the suture clamp introduces the latter into the opening 2k delimited by the tapered profile 2a of the cylindrical cannula 2. Thus, by elastic deformation of the needle surgical 3 the surgeon can introduce into the opening 2k and enter the cylindrical cannula 2 allowing its removal from the operative site during the extraction of said cannula.
Il doit d'ailleurs être entendu que la description qui précède n'a été donnée qu'à titre d'exemple, et quelle ne limite nullement le domaine de l'invention dont on ne sortirait pas en remplaçant les détails d'exécution décrits par tout autre équivalent. It must also be understood that the foregoing description has been given by way of example only, and that in no way limits the scope of the invention of which we would not go out by replacing the details of execution described by any other equivalent.
