Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of rotation technology of mammography machines, and relates to a high-precision rotation system for mammography machines. Background Technology
[0002] A mammography machine is an X-ray machine specifically used for the examination and diagnosis of breast lesions; it is also called a mammography machine. The X-ray tube arm refers to the arm that connects the X-ray tube to the mammography machine, while the C-arm is a combination of the X-ray tube arm and the detector arm of the mammography machine. Because its shape is similar to a C, it is simply called the C-arm.
[0003] Currently, breast mammography machines with tomo functionality on the market, besides the C-arm rotation function to meet different patient positioning needs, also require the X-ray tube arm rotation function to achieve 3D imaging. However, currently, the switching between these two rotational movements is achieved through a clutch, resulting in a complex structure and control logic, making them prone to malfunctions, and preventing simultaneous rotation. Furthermore, achieving the required rotational precision necessitates high-precision machining of the rotating parts, leading to higher costs. Additionally, wear and tear on the rotating structure over long-term operation causes gaps that are difficult to repair, requiring replacement of parts. Finally, due to limitations in wiring and the rotating structure, large-angle rotation is not possible; for example, the rotation angle of the C-arm is generally ±180°, and the rotation angle of the X-ray tube arm is generally ±50°.
[0004] In summary, current breast mammary gland machines with tomo functionality on the market suffer from four main problems: 1. The C-arm rotation and X-ray tube arm rotation use the same motor drive system, resulting in complex control logic and a susceptibility to malfunctions. 2. Achieving rotational precision requires high-precision components in the rotating mechanism, leading to high manufacturing costs. 3. Long-term wear and tear makes it difficult to resolve and adjust rotational precision issues. 4. The rotation angle range of the C-arm and X-ray tube arm is relatively small, especially the X-ray tube arm, which is generally ±50° on the market. Therefore, designing a high-precision rotation system for breast mammary gland machines to address these issues is particularly necessary. Summary of the Invention

[0020] To further explain the technical solution of the present invention, the present invention will be described in detail below through specific embodiments.
[0021] like Figure 1-12As shown, the high-precision rotation system of this mammography machine includes a trolley plate 10, a main shaft 20, a X-ray tube arm 60, and a detector arm 40. Specifically, the main shaft 20 is a hollow shaft, and the cable of the front C-arm can reach the interior of the column through the interior of the main shaft 20. Since the cable is at the center of rotation, it will not affect the rotation angle of either component, allowing for a wider range of rotation angles. The high-precision rotation system includes a C-arm rotation mechanism 50 and a X-ray tube arm rotation mechanism 30. One end of the main shaft 20 is mounted on the trolley plate 10 through the C-arm rotation mechanism 50, and the other end of the main shaft 20 is fixedly connected to the detector arm 40. In this embodiment, the main shaft 20 also has a hollow shaft. One end is fixedly connected to the detector arm 40 via a mounting base for the detector arm 40, thus forming a C-arm together with the X-ray tube arm 60. The X-ray tube arm 60 is mounted in the middle of the main shaft 20 via a rotating mechanism 30. With this structure, the C-arm rotating mechanism 50 drives the main shaft 20 to rotate, and the X-ray tube arm rotating mechanism 30 is mounted on the main shaft 20 and can rotate around the main shaft 20. The detector arm 40 is rigidly connected to the main shaft 20 and will rotate with the rotation of the main shaft 20. This results in two independent rotating systems, which rotate the C-arm and the X-ray tube arm 60 respectively, which has beneficial effects on the electrical control logic and structural stability. The C-arm rotating mechanism 50 includes a worm gear 521, a worm 513, and a limiting ring 526. One end of the main shaft 20 is rotatably mounted on the trolley plate 10 via a tapered bearing 525. The limiting ring 526 is sleeved on one end of the main shaft 20. In this embodiment, the limiting ring 526 is rotatably sleeved on one end of the main shaft 20 via a spacer 529. The thickness of the spacer 529 is greater than the thickness of the limiting ring 526, which can axially position the worm gear 521 while ensuring that the limiting ring 526 can rotate flexibly on its surface. The limiting ring 526 has a limiting protrusion 526a, on which a limiting pin 5 is fixed. 27. An arc-shaped groove 10a is provided on the trolley plate 10, and the limiting pin 527 is located in the arc-shaped groove 10a. The worm gear 521 is fixed to one end of the main shaft 20. The side of the worm gear 521 is fixed with a limiting block 524 that cooperates with the limiting protrusion 526a. The limiting block 524 can abut against both sides of the limiting protrusion 526a. With this structure, the limiting block 524, the limiting ring 526 and the arc-shaped groove 10a on the trolley plate 10 together form a mechanical limiting of the C-arm rotation. Due to the cooperation of the limiting pin 527 and the arc-shaped groove 10a, a mechanical limiting rotation of more than ±180° can be achieved. Worm gear 513 is horizontally rotatably mounted on trolley plate 10, and worm gear 513 meshes with worm wheel 521, forming a self-locking structure. Worm gear 513 is also connected to a drive assembly that enables its rotation. In this example, brake bracket 511 is fixed on trolley plate 10, and there is an adjusting shim 515 between brake bracket 511 and trolley plate 10. The adjusting shim 515 is used to adjust the gap between the brake suction cups in brake 512 to ensure flexible and reliable engagement and disengagement. Brake 512 is installed between brake bracket 511 and one end of main shaft 20. Brake bracket 511, adjusting shim 515, and brake 512 together form a brake module, which is a redundant design that improves positioning accuracy and safety when C-arm rotates. It locks when main shaft 20 stops rotating and releases when main shaft 20 starts rotating.
[0022] The CVT arm rotation mechanism 30 includes a second worm gear 320, a second worm 318, and two limiting blocks 313. The main shaft 20 is rotatably connected to the CVT arm 60 via a second tapered bearing 302. Bearing seats 303 that mate with the second tapered bearing 302 are fixed on both sides of the CVT arm 60. In this embodiment, an adjusting washer 327 is provided between one of the bearing seats 303 and the CVT arm 60. By adding or removing the adjusting washer 327, the axial and radial clearances of the CVT arm 60 relative to the main shaft 20 can be eliminated. In this example, two bushings 322 are also fitted in the middle of the main shaft 20, and the bushings 322 are arranged between the second tapered bearing 302 and the second worm gear 320. The two limiting blocks 313... The worm gear 320 is fixed to the middle of the main shaft 20, and a limiting block 321 that cooperates with the limiting block 313 is fixed to the side of the worm gear 320. In this embodiment, the limiting block 321 is installed on the worm gear 320 and the limiting block 313 is installed on the worm gear 60, thus forming a mechanical limiting module for the rotation of the worm gear 60. In practice, the limiting block 321 and the limiting block 313 can be changed to change the angle of mechanical limiting. The worm gear 318 is horizontally rotatably installed on the worm gear 60 and meshes with the worm gear 320, and the two form a self-locking structure. The worm gear 318 is also connected to a drive component 2 that enables it to rotate.
[0023] The drive assembly 1 includes a motor 520, a drive wheel 517, a driven wheel 514, and a transmission belt 516. The motor 520 is fixed to the trolley plate 10 via a motor mounting base 518. The trolley plate 10 has a fine-tuning structure 519 for fine-tuning the position of the motor mounting base 518. In this embodiment, the fine-tuning structure 519 adopts an existing structure, thereby realizing the tension adjustment of the transmission belt 516. The drive wheel 517 is fixed on the output shaft of the motor 520, the driven wheel 514 is fixed on the worm gear 513, and the transmission belt 516 is sleeved between the drive wheel 517 and the driven wheel 514. With this structure, the motor 520, the drive wheel 517, the driven wheel 514, and the transmission belt 516 together form the drive assembly 1, which is installed on the trolley plate 10 to drive the rotation of the worm gear 513.
[0024] An encoder bracket 502, a potentiometer bracket 506, and a photoelectric bracket 503 are fixed on the trolley plate 10. An encoder 501 is fixed on the encoder bracket 502, and an encoder pinion 504 is fixed on the shaft of the encoder 501. A potentiometer 505 is fixed on the potentiometer bracket 506, and a potentiometer pinion 507 is fixed on the shaft of the potentiometer 505. A photoelectric switch 508 is fixed on the photoelectric bracket 503. A large gear 509, which meshes with both the encoder pinion 504 and the potentiometer pinion 507, is fixed to one end of the main shaft 20. A photoelectric retaining ring 510 is provided to cooperate with photoelectric switch 508. With this structure, encoder pinion 504, encoder bracket 502, and encoder 501 together form a C-arm position information acquisition module. The signal is transmitted from large gear 509 to encoder pinion 504 to realize real-time position reading of rotation. Photoelectric bracket 503, potentiometer pinion 507, potentiometer bracket 506, potentiometer 505, and photoelectric switch together form an electrical limit module. Through the position information output of potentiometer pinion 507 and photoelectric retaining ring 510, electronic limit function of extreme position can be performed.
[0025] One end of the spindle 20 is threaded with a round nut 523, and a retaining washer 528 is provided between the round nut 523 and the worm gear 521; the middle part of the spindle 20 is threaded with a round nut 309, and a retaining washer 319 is provided between the round nut 309 and the bearing housing 303; by using the round nut 523, the round nut 309, the retaining washer 528 and the retaining washer 319, and in conjunction with the arrangement of the double-sided tapered bearings 532 and 325 on the spindle 20, the axial and radial clearances of the spindle 20 can be eliminated.
[0026] The trolley plate 10 is equipped with a worm gear seat 522. Both ends of the worm gear 513 are rotatably connected to the worm gear seat 522 via double-sided tapered bearings 532. Worm end caps 533 are fixed on both sides of the worm gear seat 522. A worm adjusting shim 530 is also installed on the side of the worm gear seat 522 away from the driven wheel 514. The arrangement of the double-sided tapered bearings 532 allows the axial and radial clearance of the worm gear 513 to be controlled by adding or removing the worm adjusting shim 530, thereby improving the transmission accuracy between the worm wheel 521 and the worm gear 513. The trolley plate 10 is equipped with a clearance adjusting block 531 for adjusting the meshing clearance between the worm gear 513 and the worm wheel 521. With this structure, the clearance adjusting block 531 is installed on the trolley plate 10, which can adjust the meshing clearance between the worm gear 513 and the worm wheel 521, so that the rotational clearance and accuracy of the worm wheel 521 can be adjusted and controlled.
[0027] The second drive assembly includes a second motor 312, a second drive wheel 315, a second driven wheel 317, and a second transmission belt 316. The second motor 312 is fixed to the X-ray tube arm 60 via a second motor mounting base 326. The second drive wheel 315 is fixed to the output shaft of the second motor 312. The second driven wheel 317 is fixed to the second worm gear 318. The second transmission belt 316 is sleeved between the second drive wheel 315 and the second driven wheel 317. In this embodiment, an adjustment knob 301 is also fixed on the second worm gear 318. The adjustment knob 301 can manually adjust the rotation angle of the X-ray tube arm 60, which is very convenient for maintenance during power outages.
[0028] The CVT arm 60 is equipped with a worm gear seat 324. Both ends of the worm gear 318 are rotatably connected to the worm gear seat 324 via double-sided tapered bearings 325. Worm end caps 323 are fixed on both sides of the worm gear seat 324. The CVT arm 60 has a fine-tuning structure 314 for fine-tuning the position of the worm gear seat 324 and the position of the motor mounting seat 326. The fine-tuning structure 314 adopts an existing structure and can adjust the meshing clearance between the worm gear 318 and the worm wheel 320, as well as the tension of the transmission belt 316.
[0029] An encoder bracket 2 307 and a photoelectric bracket 2 305 are fixed on the X-ray tube arm 60. An encoder 2 306 is fixed on the encoder bracket 2 307. An encoder pinion 2 308 is fixed on the shaft of the encoder 2 306. A photoelectric switch 2 304 is fixed on the photoelectric bracket 2 305. A large gear 2 311 that meshes with the encoder pinion 2 308 is fixed on the worm gear 2 320. A photoelectric recognition ring 310 that cooperates with the photoelectric switch 2 304 is fixed on the worm gear 2 320. With this structure, the photoelectric switch 2 304, the photoelectric bracket 2 305, and the photoelectric recognition ring 310 together form a photoelectric limit module, which can perform photoelectric limit of extreme positions and zero position recognition. The encoder bracket 2 307, the encoder pinion 2 308, and the large gear 2 311 together form a position information acquisition module for X-ray tube arm 60, which is used to read the rotation position information of X-ray tube arm 60 in real time.
[0030] In summary, the design details of both the C-arm rotation and the 60° rotation of the tube arm lie in the fact that both the worm gear and worm have modules for adjusting the clearance accuracy. They are also equipped with auxiliary modules such as mechanical limiters, photoelectric limiters, position information acquisition, and safety brakes to ensure the safety and reliability of the rotational motion.
[0031] This high-precision rotation system is particularly suitable for 3D imaging mammography machines with tomo functionality, and is applied to the independent rotation of the X-ray tube arm 60° and the independent rotation of the C-arm, respectively.
[0032] In this embodiment, the C-arm rotation angle is shown as ±180°. If a larger rotation angle is required, it can be achieved by adjusting the corresponding parameters. The 60° swing angle of the X-ray tube arm is shown as ±60°, which is already greater than the ±50° currently on the market. However, if a larger rotation angle is required, it can also be achieved by adjusting the corresponding parameters. In practice, high-precision rotation systems also include a rotation balancing mechanism.
[0033] All of the above components are general standard parts or components known to those skilled in the art. Their structure and principles can be learned by those skilled in the art through technical manuals or conventional experimental methods.
[0034] The above embodiments and figures are not intended to limit the product form and style of the present invention. Any appropriate changes or modifications made by those skilled in the art should be considered as not departing from the patent scope of the present invention.
