The components of the present invention may be made from conventional medical implant materials (e.g., stainless steel, titanium alloy, nitinol) by conventional machining methods (e.g., laser cutting, wire cutting, electrical discharge machining, and turning). In which theanchoring clip 1 has a suitable closing force in an initial state, which can be referred to in fig. 6, ensuring a sufficient clipping force of theleaflets 31 clamped therebetween, theanchoring clip 1 can be shaped by heat treatment to achieve the above-mentioned function.

To improve tissue compliance, better fit against theleaflets 31, theseptum 2 should be suitably resilient, especially radially enough to be resilient, while in the axial direction theseptum 2 needs to provide enough rigidity to support the opening and closing device.

To achieve the above-described function of theseptum 2, theseptum 2 may be fabricated as a thin-walled structure, as shown in FIG. 1, or as a mesh structure, as shown in FIG. 25.

Of course, the symmetrical arrangement is for better understanding of the invention, and is in no way limiting, and it is feasible to use an asymmetrical distribution to meet the practical clinical requirements.

Fig. 16 is a schematic view of the initial state of the closing springs 5, and it can be seen that the closing springs 5 in the initial state are already closed, that is, the closing springs 5 can still provide clamping force when clamping the tissue structure of thevalve leaflet 31 with the thickness close to 0, and the function can be obtained by a heat treatment pre-forming or mechanical dislocation installation method.

Fig. 15 is a schematic view of the closing springs 5 in operation, i.e. after clamping of the leaflets 31 (leaflets 31 not shown), it being clear that there is a large clamping force between the closing springs 5 (relative to the initial state of the closing springs 5 shown in fig. 16).
