Surgical suture holder

1 . A surgical suture holder adapted to be disposed on an opening of a tubular snaring object and adapted for holding at least one surgical suture, the surgical suture holder extending along a holder axis and comprising:

an insertion section adapted to be inserted into the opening of the tubular snaring object and being tapered toward the tubular snaring object; and

a holding section having a holding board that has a periphery surrounding the holder axis, and at least one holding slot that is recessed from the periphery of the holding board, that extends through the holding board in an extending direction of the holding axis, and that is adapted for the at least one surgical suture to fit thereinto so that the at least one holding slot holds the at least one surgical suture; and

a winding section located between the insertion section and the holding section, the winding section including a winding portion that is adapted to be wound around by the at least one surgical suture, and a first blocking board that is located between the winding portion and the insertion section, the first blocking board having a board body that has a periphery surrounding the holder axis, and at least one groove that is recessed from the periphery of the board body and that extends through the board body in the extending direction of the holder axis, the at least one surgical suture extending through the at least one groove of the first blocking board when being held by the at least one holding slot;

wherein the winding section further includes a second blocking board that is located between the winding portion and the holding section, the second blocking board having a board body that has a periphery surrounding the holder axis, and at least one groove that is recessed from the periphery of the board body of the second blocking board, that extends through the board body of the second blocking board in the extending direction of the holder axis, and that is in spatial communication with the at least one holding slot of the holding section, the at least one surgical suture extending through the at least one groove of the second blocking board when being held by the at least one holding slot;

wherein the holding board is made of a resilient material, and is disposed on the board body of the second blocking board; and

wherein the holding board and the second blocking board are made of different materials.

2 . The surgical suture holder as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the at least one holding slot has a slot neck part that is connected to the periphery of the holding board and that has a width adapted to be smaller than a diameter of the at least one surgical suture before the holding board is deformed, and a slot head part that is in spatial communication with the slot neck part and that is adapted for accommodating the at least one surgical suture.

3 . The surgical suture holder as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the at least one holding slot includes a plurality of holding slots, the at least one groove of the first blocking board including a plurality of grooves that respectively correspond in position to the plurality of holding slots in the extending direction of the holder axis, the at least one groove of the second blocking board including a plurality of grooves that respectively correspond in position to the plurality of holding slots in the extending direction of the holder axis.

4 . The surgical suture holder as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising a cutting section that is located between the insertion section and the winding section, the cutting section having a concave surface that defines a cutting recess, the at least one surgical suture hanging over the concave surface when the at least one surgical suture extends across the cutting recess.

5 . The surgical suture holder as claimed in claim 4 , wherein the concave surface of the cutting section surrounds the holder axis such that an area of a cross section of the cutting section decreases and then increases as the cutting section extends from the insertion section to the winding section.

6 . The surgical suture holder as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the holding section further has at least one slot-defining surface that defines the at least one holding slot, the at least one slot-defining surface having two guiding parts that are located at the periphery of the holding board, that are spaced apart from each other, and that are adapted for guiding the at least one surgical suture into the at least one holding slot.

7 . The surgical suture holder as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the holding board is configured to be disc-shaped.
