Clamping type active movement capsule robot based on lead screw

Abstract

The invention provides a clamping type active movement capsule robot based on a lead screw. The robot comprises a capsule shell, and a camera module, an energy supply battery, a control panel and a clamping type movement module which are mounted in the capsule shell. The robot has the beneficial effects that: the structure is simple and compact, and a micro motor, a lead screw and other simple mechanical structures are installed in the robot; the clamping type active movement capsule robot has the three functions of being clamped at a specific position in the intestinal tract, strutting the collapsed inner wall of the intestinal tract and actively moving forwards in the intestinal tract, and the problem that at the present stage, a wireless capsule endoscope cannot actively move in the intestinal tract is solved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of medical devices, in particular to a clamp-type active-moving capsule robot based on a screw rod. Background technique [0002] Since 2000, medical device companies at home and abroad, including Japan's Olympus Corporation, South Korea's IntroMedic Corporation, China's Jinshan Technology Group and Anhan Technology Corporation, have successively launched wireless capsule endoscope products and put them into clinical practice. The use of the invention greatly reduces the pain of gastrointestinal disease patients during examination and improves the screening rate of gastrointestinal diseases. However, at the same time, due to the lack of active movement ability of the wireless capsule endoscope, there have been many cases of missed diagnosis and misdiagnosis and other gastrointestinal complications when using it for gastrointestinal examination. For example, the existing wireless capsule endoscope can only m...

Problems solved by technology

However, at the same time, due to the lack of active movement ability of the wireless capsule endoscope, there have been many cases of missed diagnosis and misdiagnosis and other gastrointestinal complications when using it for gastrointestinal examination

For example, the existing wireless capsule endoscope can only move forward passively under the natural contraction of the intestinal tract, and cannot fix itself at a certain place in the intestinal tract or stretch the collapsed intestinal wall for detailed image observation and collection. Possibility of capsule blockage (capsule endoscope remaining in the body for more than two weeks) and other intestinal disorders

[0003] Most of the existing capsule robots use the worm-like method to realize the active movement of the capsule robot. The active movement of the capsule robot based on the worm-like method needs to install three micro-motors and use a complex mechanical structure, which will not be conducive to the active movement of the capsule robot.
