In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more apparent, the technical solutions of the present invention will be described in detail below. It will be apparent that the described embodiments are only some, but not all, embodiments of the invention. All other embodiments, based on the examples herein, which are within the scope of the invention as defined by the claims, will be within the scope of the invention as defined by the claims.
The terms first, second and the like in the description and in the claims, are used for distinguishing between similar elements and not necessarily for describing a particular sequential or chronological order. It is to be understood that the data so used may be interchanged, as appropriate, such that embodiments of the present application may be implemented in sequences other than those illustrated or described herein, and that the objects identified by "first," "second," etc. are generally of a type, and are not limited to the number of objects, such as the first object may be one or more. Furthermore, in the description and claims, "and/or" means at least one of the connected objects, and the character "/", generally means that the associated object is an "or" relationship.
It should be noted that, the endoscope in the embodiment of the present application may be a bronchoscope, a pyeloscope, an esophagoscope, a gastroscope, a enteroscope, an otoscope, a nasal scope, a stomatoscope, a laryngoscope, a colposcope, a laparoscope, an arthroscope, etc., and the embodiment of the present application does not specifically limit the type of the endoscope.
The fluid medium injected by the injector can be water, oil (such as hydraulic oil), cooling liquid, air, nitrogen, helium and the like.
First, the problem of poor operability of the insertion procedure of the insertion section of the flexible endoscope is solved.
In this regard, the embodiment of the present application provides an active bending section, and referring to fig. 1-14, the active bending section 42 is mainly made of a snake bone body 1 and a skin wrapping outside the snake bone body 1, and the snake bone body 1 includes a plurality of snake bone segments 11 connected in series and hinged to each other.
The first bag body 2 extends along the axial direction of the snake bone body 1 at one side of the snake bone body 1, and the first bag body 2 is positioned between the skin and the snake bone body 1. It should be understood that the first capsule 2 may be located at one side of the snake bone body 1 in the axial direction, specifically, the first capsule 2 may extend from the side of the lens seat 43 or from the side of the passive bending section 41, and in this state, the first capsule 2 is mounted on the snake bone body 1 in a partially wrapped and extended manner, and in the case of inflation of the fluid medium filled in the first capsule 2, the first capsule 2 may play a role in hardening a portion of the snake bone body 1, so that the snake bone body 1 is not easily bent, and the snake bone body 1 is conveniently introduced into the body cavity.
When the medical staff pulls the traction rope 44 to adjust the bending state of the snake bone body 1, the part of the snake bone body 1 which is not covered by the first bag body 2 can be bent normally, and the snake bone body 1 can be guided into according to the actual body cavity scene, so that the snake bone body 1 can be more easily led into the body cavity, and the adaptability of the snake bone body 1 is improved.
It should be noted that when the first bladder 2 is extended from one side of the passive bending section 41 to be mounted on a portion of the snake bone body 1, after the fluid medium is filled into the first bladder 2, the portion of the rear end of the snake bone body 1 wrapped by the first bladder 2 becomes hard, and the snake bone segments 11 at the front end of the snake bone body 1 can still rotate to bend, so that the bending radius of the snake bone body 1 is reduced, and the snake bone body 1 is conveniently introduced into the body cavity.
Of course, in the preferred embodiment, the first bag body 2 needs to be fully extended and installed on all the snake bone bodies 1, so that the bending rigidity of the whole snake bone body 1 can be controlled, and the whole snake bone body 1 is not easy to bend, so that the snake bone body 1 can be conveniently led into the body cavity.
As for the material for manufacturing the first bladder 2, nylon (Nylon) material, polyester fiber (Polyester) or the like is generally used, and since Nylon has high strength and abrasion resistance, and Polyester fiber has heat resistance and tear resistance, the applicability of the first bladder 2 can be improved.
Of course, the first capsule 2 may be in direct contact with the snake bone body 1 or indirect contact, specifically, in the case of direct contact, the side wall of the first capsule 2 may be in direct contact with the side wall of the snake bone body 1, while in the case of indirect contact, in actual installation, a deformation material layer, such as a plastic film, may be disposed between the first capsule 2 and the snake bone body 1, the first capsule is filled with a fluid medium, and when the expansion portion 21 of the first capsule 2 expands and deforms, the deformation material layer deforms along with the expansion portion 21, and then abuts against the gap between two adjacent snake bone segments 11.
As an alternative embodiment, the deformable material layer may be directly located on the outer wall of the snake bone segments 11, in which case the material of the outer wall of the snake bone segments 11 is not necessarily a deformable material, and other cushion layers may be selected, and after the first bladder 2 is filled with the fluid medium, the expansion portion 21 of the first bladder 2 is expanded and deformed to directly abut against the gap between two adjacent snake bone segments 11.
As an alternative embodiment, the first bag body 2 may be in a hollow cylindrical shape or a plurality of strip shapes, when the shape of the first bag body 2 is a hollow cylindrical shape, the snake bone body 1 is located in the hollow cylindrical shape of the first bag body 2, the first bag body 2 is wrapped on the snake bone body 1, the outer wall of the snake bone body 1 is contacted with the inner wall of the first bag body 2, the first bag body 2 is wrapped and installed along the circumferential extension of the snake bone body 1, after the first bag body 2 is installed on the snake bone body 1 in an extending manner, at this time, the first bag body 2 and the snake bone body 1 have higher fitting degree and do not occupy too much space of the active bending section 42, and the first bag body 2 can be installed on the snake bone body 1 more conveniently under the shape.
When the shape of the first bag body 2 is a long strip shape, the number of the first bag bodies 2 is at least two, in the figure, the situation that the number of the first bag bodies 2 is two and four is specifically illustrated, under the situation, the first bag bodies 2 are uniformly distributed along the circumferential direction of the snake bone body 1, and the optimal positions of the first bag bodies 2 are symmetrically arranged on two sides of a plane where the hinge shafts of the snake bone sections 11 are located, so that the normal swing between the snake bone sections 11 can not be influenced by the first bag bodies 2, and meanwhile, the balance of the force applied by the first bag bodies 2 can be ensured, so that swing between the snake bone sections 11 due to unbalanced stress can be avoided.
Referring to fig. 3 and 5, the expansion portion 21 is located at the swing gap 3 between the adjacent snake bone segments 11, and of course, the number of expansion portions 21 at the swing gap 3 between each adjacent snake bone segment 11 may be one or more, and is not particularly limited herein.
It should be emphasized that the expansion portion 21 is a part of the first bladder 2 and expands along with the first bladder 2, and because there is a supporting force between the first bladder 2 and the outer wall of the snake bone joint 11, when the first bladder 2 is injected with fluid medium, the first bladder 2 at the outer wall of the snake bone joint 11 will not expand and deform towards the center of the snake bone joint 11, and the expansion portion 21 between adjacent snake bone joints 11 will expand and deform to occupy the swing gap 3, so as to achieve the purpose of limiting the swing amplitude of the adjacent two snake bone joints 11 swinging towards two sides.
However, in other preferred embodiments, the expansion portion 21 may be an expansion protrusion formed separately with the first bladder 2, and in the initial state, the expansion protrusion is located at the swinging gap 3 between the adjacent snake bone segments 11, and after the fluid medium is filled into the first bladder 2, the expansion protrusion expands accordingly, so that the expansion efficiency is higher and the reaction time is faster. The expansion portion 21 has the two solutions described above in which the initial state is at the rocking gap 3 between the adjacent snake segments 11 and in which the initial state is not at the rocking gap 3 between the adjacent snake segments 11.
When the insertion part of the endoscope needs to be inserted into a cavity to be inspected in the abdomen of a human body and the insertion part needs to be conveniently inserted into a proper cavity position, the expansion part 21 on the first bag body 2 is made to invade the swinging gap 3 between the two sections of snake bone segments 11 by injecting a fluid medium into the first bag body 2, so that the snake bone segments 11 are limited to swing, the degree of softness of the snake bone segments of the endoscope, namely the free bending segments, is controlled, and finally the operation of entering the body cavity is facilitated.
Referring to fig. 5 and 6, for the purpose of the expansion portion 21 further restricting the adjacent two snake bone segments 11 from swinging toward both sides, the expansion portion 21 is composed of an extension portion 211 and an anchoring portion 222, and of course, the first balloon 2 may be extended in the axial direction thereof on the outside or inside of the snake bone body 1.
As an alternative embodiment, when the first bladder 2 is on the outer side wall of the snake bone body 1, the extension section 211 expands to occupy the swing gap 3 between the two adjacent snake bone sections 11 and abuts against the end surfaces of the two adjacent snake bone sections 11, the extension section 211 can play a role in restricting the swing between the two snake bone sections 11 at one stage, the anchoring section 222 expands to abut against the inner side wall surfaces of the two adjacent snake bone sections 11, and the anchoring section 222 can further play a role in restricting the swing between the two snake bone sections 11 at the second stage.
Meanwhile, the projection of the first bag body 2 along the axial direction of the snake bone body 1 is located at the outer side of the projection of the traction rope 44 along the axial direction of the snake bone body 1, so that the first bag body 2 can not be abutted against the traction rope 44 after being expanded, normal traction of the traction rope 44 is affected, and of course, in other implementations, the first bag body 2 can be abutted against the traction rope 44 after being expanded, and displacement of the traction rope 44 is limited by utilizing friction force between the first bag body 2 and the traction rope 44, so that the hardening effect of the snake bone body 1 is further improved.
As an alternative embodiment, when the first capsule 2 is on the inner side wall of the snake bone body 1, the extension section 211 expands to occupy the swing gap 3 between the adjacent two snake bone segments 11 and abuts against the end faces of the adjacent two snake bone segments 11, the anchoring section 222 expands to abut against the outer side wall faces of the adjacent two snake bone segments 11, and simultaneously the projection of the first capsule 2 along the axial direction of the snake bone body 1 is located outside the projection of the hauling rope 44 along the axial direction of the snake bone body 1. Indeed, the first balloon 2 will not abut against the traction rope 44 after being inflated, which affects the normal traction of the traction rope 44, and the anchoring section 222 may further serve as a limit between adjacent snake bone segments 11.
In practical manufacturing, the thickness of the anchoring section 222 is smaller than that of the first bladder body 2 and the extension section 211, and when the first bladder body 2, the extension section 211 and the anchoring section 222 are filled with fluid medium, the anchoring section 222 expands more along with the expansion of the first bladder body 2, the extension section 211 and the anchoring section 222, and expands along the connection between the extension section 211 and the anchoring section 222, and the anchoring section 222 is attached to the side wall of the two adjacent snake bone segments 11, so as to achieve the purpose of limiting the swing of the two adjacent snake bone segments 11.
Through setting up expansion portion 21 into expansion section 211 and anchor section 222, after its expansion section 211 follows the expansion of first bag body 2, can butt in the terminal surface of adjacent two snake condyle 11, expansion section 211 just has the spacing effect of one-level this moment, and anchor section 222 follows after the expansion of first bag body 2, can butt in the inside wall surface of adjacent two snake condyle 11, anchor section 222 just has the effect of fastening adjacent two snake condyle 11 this moment to have the spacing effect of second grade, through double spacing to adjacent two snake condyle 11, alright realize closely prescribing a limit to the swing of adjacent two snake condyle 11.
Referring to fig. 7 and 8, in order to facilitate control of inflation or deflation of the first balloon 2, the distal end of the connection tube 5 is in communication with the first balloon 2, and the pressing portion 6 is movably connected to the connection tube 5 and is movable between a first position 61 and a second position 62 with respect to the axial direction of the connection tube 5.
Specifically, the pressing portion 6 is formed by a pressing roller 64, and in other embodiments, the pressing roller 64 may be formed by a pressing block, the outer wall of the pressing roller 64 is integrally formed with a plurality of protruding strips 641 along the circumferential direction, and the pressing roller 64 is coaxially integrally formed with a rotating shaft 642.
The handle 4 is provided with a sliding groove 40 along the length direction of the handle 4, the sliding groove 40 is in a strip shape and is in an opening shape, the side wall of the width direction of the sliding groove 40 is provided with a limiting groove 401 along the length direction, the limiting groove 401 is provided with an inclined section and a straight section, the inclined section is communicated with the straight section, an included angle between the inclined section and the straight section is an obtuse angle and is inclined downwards towards the bottom wall direction of the limiting groove 401, the straight section of the limiting groove 401 is parallel to the bottom wall of the sliding groove 40, and a rotating shaft 642 of the extruding roller 64 is slidably connected in the limiting groove 401.
When the rotating shaft 642 of the squeeze roll 64 is located at the distal end of the inclined section of the limit groove 401, the squeeze portion 6, i.e. the squeeze roll 64, is located at the first position 61, when the rotating shaft 642 of the squeeze roll 64 is located at the distal end of the horizontal section of the limit groove 401, the squeeze portion 6, i.e. the squeeze roll 64, is located at the second position 62, and when the rotating shaft 642 of the squeeze roll 64 is located at the other positions of the inclined section and the flat section of the limit groove 401, the squeeze portion 6, i.e. the squeeze roll 64, is located at the third position 63, and under the limit condition of the limit groove 401, the squeeze and push of the connecting pipe 5 can be conveniently realized due to the existence of the inclined section and the flat section of the limit groove 401, thereby controlling the expansion of the expansion portion 21 of the first bag body 2.
Of course, when the pressing portion 6, that is, the pressing roller 64 is at the first position 61, the connection pipe 5 is in the on state, and when the connection pipe 5 is in contact with or not in contact with the pressing portion 6, that is, when the pressing roller 64 is at the second position 62, the pressing portion 6 presses the connection pipe 5 to collapse the position of the connection pipe 5, thereby bringing the connection pipe 5 into the off state, a closed space is formed between the first bladder 2 and the connection pipe 5, the expansion portion 21 of the first bladder 2 is in the first expanded state, and when the first expanded state is in the completely expanded state, the expansion portion 21 of the first bladder 2 is in the completely expanded state.
While in the case where the pressing portion 6, i.e., the pressing roller 64, is in the third position 63, the position where the pressing portion 6 presses the connection pipe 5 is flattened to bring the connection pipe 5 into the off state, while a closed space is formed between the first balloon 2 and the connection pipe 5, wherein when the pressing portion 6 moves from the third position 63 to the second position 62, the pressing portion 6 can push the fluid medium at the distal end of the connection pipe 5 into the first balloon 2 to increase the expansion degree of the expansion portion 21 of the first balloon 2, and the expansion portion 21 of the first balloon 2 is in the second expanded state lower than the first expanded state. Therefore, the expansion or the deflation of the first bag body 2 is controlled through the extrusion part 6, the whole operation is convenient, and the third position 63 plays a role in conveniently controlling the expansion degree of the expansion part 21 of the first bag body 2 by medical staff.
By installing the pressing part 6, the purpose of pushing the fluid medium in the connecting pipe 5 can be achieved by using the first position 61, the second position 62 and the third position 63 where the pressing part 6 is located, so that the first bladder 2 and the expansion degree of the expansion part 21 on the first bladder 2 can be controlled slowly and conveniently.
