Auto-decontamination thoracoscope

Abstract

The invention relates to the field of medical devices, and specifically discloses an auto-decontamination thoracoscope. The auto-decontamination thoracoscope mainly comprises an inner pipe, an outer pipe, a hollow shaft motor at a gap between the inner pipe and the outer pipe, a brush rod installed on the hollow shaft motor, a basic monitoring module and a control module. The outer pipe and the inner pipe are nested with each other and optimize the connection mode to each other. The appropriate gap between the outer pipe and the inner pipe can be used to introduce the structure of the hollow shaft motor. The whole thoracoscope can continue to maintain a rotary body structure, thereby effectively reducing the space occupied by a transmission mechanism. The hollow shaft motor drives the brush rod, and then bristles on the brush rod wipe the surface of an end cap back and forth, thereby achieving very ideal cleaning effect. In the process of use, a timer is introduced in the present invention. Meanwhile, the timer is used to start the hollow shaft motor at intervals, thereby ensuring that the lens of the thoracoscope is kept clean, so that users conveniently pay more attention to themain surgical operations.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of medical instruments, in particular to an automatic decontamination thoracoscope. Background technique [0002] As the name implies, minimally invasive surgery is minimally invasive surgery, which refers to surgery performed using modern medical instruments such as laparoscopes and thoracoscopes and related equipment. Laparoscopic thoracoscopes have built-in cameras and lighting modules for feedback of the internal conditions of the abdominal cavity. Doctors based on The captured field of view is opened in another location, and surgical instruments are inserted to perform the procedure. The advantages of minimally invasive surgery are small trauma, light pain, and quick recovery, which has a good development prospect. [0003] For example, in esophageal cancer, the incidence of complications and mortality after esophageal cancer surgery are still high, which is an important problem that thoracic surgeons need to so...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0004] During the operation, both laparoscopes and thoracoscopes will have lens surfaces fogged and covered by blood stains and other debris (laparoscopic thoracoscopes will not touch internal organs, and their ends are suspended, but there may still be blood stains ), resulting in blurred transmitted images, which will interfere with doctors’ operations

In order to solve the above problems in the prior art, heating methods are generally used to balance the temperature inside and outside the laparoscopic thoracoscope and reduce fogging (this is the main influencing factor); however, the prior art does not propose a reasonable solution to the problem of blood stains
