A Clamp Active Motion Capsule Robot Based on Screws

Abstract

The present invention provides a clamp-type active motion capsule robot based on a screw rod, comprising a capsule shell, a camera module, an energy supply battery, a control board and a clamp-type motion module installed inside the capsule shell. The beneficial effects of the invention are as follows: the structure of the invention is simple and compact, and a simple mechanical structure such as a micro motor and a screw rod is installed inside; The three functions of the inner wall of the tract and the active forward movement in the intestine solve the problem that the wireless capsule endoscope cannot actively move in the intestine at this stage.

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.
