Patients with heart failure hope that the Tongmao linear motor will play call for the full magnetic levitation artificial heart. It is reported that the total number of heart failure patients in various countries is as high as 22.5 million, and increasing at the rate of 2 million people each year, and China is one of the regions with more heart failure patients, at least 10 million heart failure patients, about half of the total.
Tongmao Linear Motor has worked in the medical industry for several years and has a slight understanding of the diagnosis and treatment of heart failure. There are currently two effective methods of diagnosis and treatment: one is heart transplantation, but only 300 hearts can be transplanted each year in China. About, Compared to tens of millions of patients, this figure is minimal; Another way is to replace the artificial heart.
When it comes to artificial hearts, Tongmao Linear Motor has to mention the all-magnetic levitation artificial heart reported in the "Economy Half an Hour" program some time ago. It is an artificial heart that is independently innovated in China, and all indicators have reached the advanced level. It is affectionately referred to by the medical community as the "Chinese heart."
According to the knowledge of Tongmao Linear Motor, the magnetic levitation artificial heart is only 26 mm thick, 50 mm in diameter and weighs less than 180 grams. It was developed by Chenchen, executive director of Suzhou Medical Appliance Technology Co., Ltd.. So far, China has successfully completed 7 cases of magnetic levitation artificial heart surgery.
In addition, Tongmao Linear Motor has learned that the blood pump is the core part of the all-magnetic levitation artificial heart, and how to ensure that the blood pump operates at a higher efficiency while minimizing the volume of the blood pump is a major problem in the development of the all-magnetic levitation artificial heart. For this reason, Chenchen and the team creatively used the different characteristics of permanent magnets and electromagnets in their research to reduce the volume and power consumption requirements of the electromagnet through the special modulation method of "four or two dials", thus reducing the diameter of the gear and reducing the volume of the blood pump as a whole. shrink. The original 70 mm diameter blood pump was reduced to 50 mm and the thickness was reduced to 26 mm.
The Chinese breakthrough in artificial heart technology is undoubtedly a great blessing for patients and families with heart failure, and when it comes to fully levitated artificial hearts, it is closely related to linear Motors. There have been cases where linear motors have been applied to magnetic levitation artificial heart pump drives.
Kunshan Tongmao has been continuously improving the efficiency and productivity of complex manufacturing processes for more than a decade. Its products such as Tongmao linear Motors, linear modules, linear slides, coil Motors, and coil modules have been widely trusted by customers at home and abroad. Tongmao's breakthrough innovation benefits from its application experience in various industries.
