发明名称 LOADING A TISSUE CLOSURE DEVICE ONTO A DELIVERY DEVICE
摘要 A compression tool is configured to compress one or more components of a delivery device, such as a closure element and one or more flanges of a pusher tube. The compression tool includes clamping means configured to close or release with rotation of actuating means (e.g., rotating means). In a closed position, the clamping means can sufficiently compress the one or more components of the delivery device so that a technician can easily position a garage tube about the compressed delivery device components. The assembled delivery device (or assembled garage tube) can then be removed from the compression tool upon reverse rotation of the actuating means, and subsequent opening of the clamping means.

主权项 1. A wound closure kit, comprising: a preliminary assembly including a carrier tube, a closure element positioned about the carrier tube, the closure element having an uncompressed, non-planar configuration, and a pusher tube; a garage tube sized and configured to receive the closure element in a reconfigured compressed, non-planar configuration; a base having a hollow center point sized and configured to receive the closure element in the uncompressed, non-planar configuration on a first side of the base and further sized and configured to receive a garage tube on a second side of the base; a plurality of clamps slidably positioned about the hollow center point, each of the plurality of clamps including a differentially shaped contact portion having a first portion that includes a first surface sized and configured to clamp against the closure element and a second surface recessed radially relative to the first surface; a plurality of cam elements coupled to the plurality of clamps; a rotation member rotatably coupled to the plurality of cam elements, upon rotation about a rotation axis, the rotation member being configured to cause each of the plurality of clamps to radially slide in a linear direction toward the hollow center point or away from the hollow center point; and wherein the plurality of clamps are configured to remain stationary in a lateral direction along the rotation axis, relative to the base and relative to the rotation member.
