Abstract

A swing head mechanism and a medical stapler. The swing head mechanism comprises a rotating component, a swing head pull rod (93), and a housing. At least one first fitting member and at least one second fitting member are respectively provided on the outside of the rotating component and the inside of the housing. When the rotating component rotates relative to the housing until the first fitting member is opposite to the second fitting member, the first fitting member and the second fitting member form an elastic embedding fit. The swing head mechanism facilitates an operator to set different swing angles of a stapler head portion, and can avoid uncontrollable swing of the stapler head portion.
