Abstract

A medical guide wire comprises a metal core ( 1 ), a coil ( 2 ), a delivery element ( 3 ) and a boss ( 4 ). The metal core ( 1 ) has a variable-diameter structure, which consists of a linear structure ( 1 - 3 ), a stepped structure ( 1 - 2 ) and a linear structure ( 1 - 1 ) from a proximal end to a distal end. The number of the coil ( 2 ) is one or more, and the coil(s) is/are fixed on the linear structure ( 1 - 1 ) and the stepped structure ( 1 - 2 ) at the distal end of the metal core ( 1 ). The number of the delivery element ( 3 ) is one or more, and the delivery element(s) is/are fixed to the stepped structure ( 1 - 2 ) of the metal core ( 1 ). The boss ( 4 ) is fixed on the stepped structure ( 1 - 2 ) of the metal core ( 1 ) behind the delivery element ( 3 ). When the medical guide wire is delivering an implant instrument, the delivery element on the medical guide wire makes each segment of the implant instrument receive even resistance by rubbing the inner wall of the implant instrument, thereby integrally delivering the implant instrument into the human lumen.

Claims (24)

1 . A medical guide wire for delivering an implant instrument, characterized by comprising: a metal core, a coil, a delivery element and a boss, wherein:

the metal core has a variable-diameter structure, which consists of a linear structure, a stepped structure and a linear structure from a proximal end to a distal end;

the number of the coil is one or more, and the coil(s) is/are fixed on the linear structure and the stepped structure at the distal end of the metal core;

the number of the delivery element is one or more, and the delivery element(s) is/are fixed on the stepped structure of the metal core; and

the boss is fixed on the stepped structure of the metal core behind the delivery element.

2 . The medical guide wire according to claim 1 , characterized by further comprising: a bondage element, which is provided on the metal core for binding a head end of the implant instrument.

3 . The medical guide wire according to claim 1 , characterized by further comprising: a protective casing, which is provided on the stepped structure of the metal core behind the boss.

4 . The medical guide wire according to claim 1 , characterized in that a diameter of the stepped structure gradually decreases from the proximal end to the distal end.

5 . The medical guide wire according to claim 4 , characterized in that the stepped structure is composed of one or more cylinders having gradually decreasing diameters.

6 . The medical guide wire according to claim 5 , characterized in that a middle segment portion of the metal core is composed of three cylinders having gradually decreasing diameters.

7 . The medical guide wire according to claim 1 , characterized in that a material of the coil is a development material.

8 . The medical guide wire according to claim 7 , characterized in that a structure of the delivery element is a helical structure.

9 . The medical guide wire according to claim 8 , characterized in that the delivery element is a polymer material strip film, a metal wire or a hollow polymer material pipe.

10 . The medical guide wire according to claim 9 , characterized in that the polymer material is a thermoplastic elastomer material.

11 . The medical guide wire according to claim 10 , characterized in that the thermoplastic elastomer material is polyurethane, polyethylene or rubber.

12 . The medical guide wire according to claim 11 , characterized in that the delivery element is fixed on the metal core by thermal shrinkage, welding or glue adhering.

13 . The medical guide wire according to claim 1 , characterized in that a structure of the boss is an annular structure having a thickness.

14 . The medical guide wire according to claim 13 , characterized in that a material of the boss is a development material.

15 . The medical guide wire according to claim 1 , characterized in that the bondage element is a spring.

16 . The medical guide wire according to claim 15 , characterized in that the bondage element is fixed on the metal core by a nut or welding.

17 . The medical guide wire according to claim 1 , characterized in that the protective casing is a spring.

18 . The medical guide wire according to claim 17 , characterized in that the protective casing is fixed on the metal core by welding or adhering.

19 . The medical guide wire according to claim 7 , characterized in that the development material is gold, iridium, tungsten, platinum or tantalum.

20 . The medical guide wire according to claim 14 , characterized in that the development material is gold, iridium, tungsten, platinum or tantalum.
