Illumination equipment for endoscope

Abstract

The invention discloses illumination equipment for an endoscope. The illumination equipment is installed on the endoscope and comprises an illumination body and a connector; the illumination body is composed of one or more OLED; and the connector is detachably connected with the illumination body. According to the illumination equipment, by using the OLED as an illumination light source, the OLED light source is a surface light source with large illumination cover area, uniform luminance and adjustable color temperature; and in addition, the illumination equipment also has the functions of self power supply, data transmission and the like. The illumination equipment can meet the requirement of the endoscope on the light source, can also be applied to multiple environments including indoor environments and outdoor environments and can also supply multiple uses.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of medical instruments, in particular to an illumination device for an endoscope. Background technique [0002] An endoscope is a detection instrument that integrates traditional optics, ergonomics, precision machinery, modern electronics, mathematics, and software. It can enter the stomach through the mouth or enter the body through other natural channels, and observe X-rays that cannot be displayed. lesions, it is now widely used. [0003] Endoscopes usually need to be equipped with a light source to illuminate the position of the endoscope to help doctors accurately observe the patient's condition. Most of the current endoscope light sources use halogen lamps or xenon lamps. Among them, halogen lamps are more commonly used light sources in the early stage, but their lifespan is short (hundreds to 1,000 hours), and the bulbs need to be replaced manually. Flash and glare phenomena, and its ultraviolet and infrared ...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

Most of the current endoscope light sources use halogen lamps or xenon lamps. Among them, halogen lamps are more commonly used light sources in the early stage, but their lifespan is short (hundreds to 1,000 hours), and the bulbs need to be replaced manually. Flash and glare phenomena, and its ultraviolet and infrared radiation is easy to cause eye fatigue. Later, LED lights appeared on the market, which are characterized by long life (tens of thousands of hours) and low radiant heat. Although the radiant heat of LED lights is relatively low compared with halogen lamps, However, there is still a certain amount of radiant heat, and there are also serious problems such as glare and glare, which can easily cause eye fatigue. In addition, the current endoscope light source has a single function, which is difficult to meet multi-environment and multi-purpose use.
