Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, all types of soft robots currently developed are similar to colonoscopes, endoscopes, etc., limited by the existing operating arms, and can only complete simple surgical actions
At the same time, due to the low Young's modulus and easy deformation of soft materials, their load capacity is poor and they cannot withstand large forces.

Abstract

The invention discloses a software operating arm for medical operations. The software operating arm includes a soft mechanical arm and a soft fastening device fixedly installed at the end of the soft mechanical arm. The soft fastening device includes a soft mechanical A connector at the end of the arm, a floating plug installed inside the connector, a winding fiber wound outside the connector, and an end cap installed at the end of the connector, the connector is internally provided with an air bag for clamping the floating plug, The surgical instrument is fixedly installed on the floating plug, and the end cover is provided with a hole for penetrating the surgical instrument. The soft operating arm of the present invention is pneumatically driven, safe and soft, and will not cause secondary damage to body tissues. At the same time, it has a delicate structure, has multiple degrees of freedom, and the ability to stably fasten and freely shrink rigid surgical equipment, and can operate in a narrow space. Perform complex medical procedures.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of soft robots, in particular to a soft operating arm for medical operations. Background technique [0002] Soft robots are emerging hotspots and the forefront of future development in robotics today. Compared with traditional rigid robots, they have shown unprecedented adaptability, sensitivity and agility, and are constantly expanding the application fields of robots. They are the future development of robots. One of the major trends. [0003] Soft surgical robot is one of the main directions of soft robot research. Currently, a variety of different types of soft robots have been developed based on wire drive and pneumatic drive. [0004] However, the various types of soft robots currently developed are similar to colonoscopes and endoscopes, and are limited by the existing operating arms and can only perform simple surgical actions. At the same time, due to the low Young's modulus and easy deformation o...
