HEMOSTASIS CLIP TWO STAGE DEPLOYMENT MECHANISM TO ELIMINATE SHED PARTS

The present invention discloses a clipping device, comprising: a clip including a capsule extending longitudinally from a proximal end to a distal end and including a channel extending therethrough, and a pair of clip arms, proximal ends of which are slidably received within the channel to move the clip arms between an open configuration and a closed configuration, each of the pair of clip arms including an opening extending through the proximal ends thereof; a connector including a central portion receivable between the proximal ends of the clip arms and a pin extending from the central portion receivable within the opening of each of the clip arms, at least a portion of the central portion configured to be movable relative to the pin and the clip arms from an unlocked configuration to a locked configuration, when a predetermined force is applied thereto; and a control member extending through a proximal portion of the clipping device from a proximal end to a distal end releasably coupled to the connector so that a longitudinal movement of the control member relative to the capsule moves the clip between the open and the closed configurations, when the connector is in unlocked configuration.
