    摘要: An endoscope (1) including: an insertion cord (3) including a bending section (20); a handle (2) comprising a steering wire actuator (60); and a first steering wire (27) and a second steering wire (28) both connected to the steering wire actuator (60) and running through the insertion cord (3) so that manipulation of the steering wire actuator (60) causes bending of the bending section (20); the steering wire actuator (60) including: a first fixing structure (62) including a first hook (30) for fixation of a first steering wire (27) closed loop, a second fixing structure including a second hook (31) for fixation of a second steering wire (28) closed loop.

    摘要: A catheter includes a handle and an elongate member extending from the handle. The catheter may also include steering system coupled to the handle. The steering system may be configured to deflect at least a portion of the elongate member in at least one direction. The catheter may also include a locking mechanism configured to lock the portion of the elongate member in a deflected configuration, and a lever coupled to the handle. The lever may be configured to move from a first position to a second position to engage the locking mechanism. The lever may also be configured to be separably retained at least at one of the first position or the second position to prevent movement therebetween.

    摘要: A catheter handle including a handle body; a shaft disposed in and fixed to the handle body; a slider disposed on an outside of the shaft, having a first engagement part extending spirally on an outer surface thereof, and displaceable in an axial direction along the shaft; a rotary knob rotatable around the axial direction relative to the handle body, and having a second engagement part on an inner surface thereof, which engages with the first engagement part; a linear member having a first and second portion disposed in a lumen of a tube and an intermediate portion therebetween, the intermediate portion disposed in the interior of the handle body; and a return guide contacting the intermediate portion of the linear member. The linear member is fixed to the slide at a part of the linear member on the first portion side from a contacting part with the return guide.

    摘要: Disclosed herein are catheter assemblies for controlling a position of a prosthetic device. The catheter assemblies can include a gimbal assembly, a catheter, and a plurality of control elements. The can include an outer gimbal member and an inner gimbal member. The catheter is coupled to the gimbal assembly. The control elements extend distally through the catheter. Movement of the gimbal assembly changes tension on the plurality of control elements.
