Surgical wound cleaning device

[0001] The present invention relates to a surgical wound cleaning device, and more specifically, to a surgical wound cleaning device that is coupled to a surgical device that sucks foreign substances from a surgical site or discharges a wound cleaning solution into the surgical site, thereby enabling easy cleaning of the surgical site during surgery.

[0002] In general, laparoscopic surgery is a surgical method that has been widely used recently due to its advantages such as reducing patient pain, infection, scarring, and hospitalization period.

[0003] Laparoscopic surgery is a surgical method that does not involve making an incision in the abdomen or chest, but rather inserting an endoscope equipped with a special camera through a small hole to view the inside of the abdominal cavity and perform surgery using surgical tools.

[0004] During surgery with this type of surgical method, various foreign substances or blood are mixed in the surgical site, causing contamination. These contaminants are removed using a separate cleaning device or a device is used to suck them up.

[0005] Meanwhile, conventional devices for cleaning surgical sites have a problem in that the angle of the part that sucks up contaminants or discharges cleaning solution does not change, so the user may move the entire surgical device to suck up contaminants or discharge cleaning solution to the surgical site, which may cause other harm or damage to the patient's body.

[0006] The present invention is intended to solve the above-described problems, and is coupled to a device that sucks up contaminants from a surgical site during surgery or discharges a cleaning solution to the surgical site, thereby cleaning the surgical site without moving the entire surgical device and without causing any harm or damage to the patient's body through simple operation.

[0007] In order to solve the above-described problem, according to one embodiment of the present invention, a surgical wound cleaning device is provided, which is used for the surgical device to suck foreign substances from a surgical site or to discharge a wound cleaning solution to the surgical site, the surgical device comprising: a front cap coupled to the surgical device; a rotating member rotatably coupled to a front end of the front cap to enable rotation; a moving member movably coupled to a peripheral surface of the rotating member to enable movement; an outer pipe formed as a hollow tube having a predetermined length and fixedly coupled to the moving member; an inner pipe inserted into the outer pipe, one end of which penetrates the moving member and the front cap, while an outer circumferential surface of which is fixedly coupled to the rotating member, and which is in communication with the surgical device and has a first flow path formed therein through which at least one of the foreign substances and the wound cleaning solution flows; a bendable tube formed of a flexible material and capable of being bent, the second flow path being in communication with the first flow path and through which at least one of the foreign substances and the wound cleaning solution flows, the bendable tube having one end coupled to the other end of the inner pipe and having a second flow path formed therein through which at least one of the foreign substances and the wound cleaning solution flows; And it may include an inlet / outlet member having one end connected to the other end of the above-mentioned refractory tube, communicating with the second flow path, and having a plurality of holes formed therein through which at least one of the foreign substance and the above-mentioned cleaning solution flows, and through which the foreign substance is sucked in or the above-mentioned cleaning solution is discharged.

[0008] The above movable member has a coupling pin so as to be coupled with the above rotatory member, the above rotatory member has a pin insertion groove having a predetermined width so that the coupling pin can be inserted and moved, the above movable member can be moved by the width of the pin insertion groove, and the above refractory tube can be inserted into the inside of the above rotatory member while being partially unfolded by the above rotatory member when the above movable member and the above rotatory member are coupled to each other and are moved in the other direction.

[0009] The above-mentioned refracted tube can be restored to a bent state by a restoring force while protruding outward from the outer pipe when the movable member and the outer pipe, which are mutually connected while being inserted inside the outer pipe, are moved in one direction.

[0010] The above-mentioned rotary member can be rotated together by the coupling pin and the pin insertion groove when the above-mentioned movable member is rotated, and the above-mentioned entry / exit member can be rotated together by coupling with the above-mentioned inner pipe when the above-mentioned rotary member is rotated.

[0011] The above-mentioned movable member may have a step portion formed at one end with a diameter longer than the diameter of the stop.

[0012] The above pin insertion groove may be formed to protrude from the inner circumferential surface so that a catch portion into which the coupling pin is fitted may be formed.

[0013] Thus, the present invention is intended to solve the above-described problem, and is coupled to a device that sucks up contaminants from a surgical site during surgery or discharges a cleaning solution to the surgical site, so that foreign substances from the surgical site can be easily sucked up by a simple operation and a cleaning solution to the surgical site can be discharged, thereby cleaning the surgical site, facilitating the surgery and reducing the surgery time.

[0014] In addition, the bending tube can be bent or straightened with a simple operation to suction foreign substances from the surgical site or adjust the angle and direction of the part where the surgical site cleansing solution is discharged, thereby reaching surgical sites that were difficult to reach with existing straight surgical site cleansing devices, thereby expanding the range of surgical site cleansing devices that can reach the surgical site.

[0038] Referring to FIGS. 1 to 6, a surgical wound cleaning device (10) according to one embodiment of the present invention can be combined with a surgical device (20) used to suck foreign substances from a surgical site or discharge a wound cleaning solution to a surgical site, thereby cleaning the wound of the surgical site.

[0039] To this end, a surgical wound cleaning device (10) according to one embodiment of the present invention may include a front cap (100), a rotating member (200), a moving member (300), an external pipe (400), an internal pipe (500), a bending tube (600), and an inlet / outlet member (700).

[0040] First, the surgical device (20) mentioned here may be a surgical device that sucks foreign substances from the surgical site or discharges a cleaning solution to the surgical site.

[0041] The front cap (100) can be formed by a front end portion, a rotating member insertion portion (130), and a rear end portion, a device coupling portion (120).

[0042] The rotating member insertion portion (130) is formed in a cylindrical shape, and an O-ring fixing portion formed in a ring shape can be formed on the outer peripheral surface of one side.

[0043] The O-ring fixing part can prevent the O-ring (O) from being easily separated from the rotating member insertion part (130) when the O-ring (O) is coupled to the rotating member insertion part (130).

[0044] The device coupling portion (120) is formed in a cylindrical shape with a predetermined thickness, and may have a diameter length of an outer circumferential surface longer than a diameter length of an outer circumferential surface of a rotating member insert portion (130).

[0045] Additionally, the device coupling portion (120) may have screw threads formed on the inner circumferential surface corresponding to the screw threads formed on the surgical device (20) so as to enable coupling with the surgical device (20).

[0046] The device coupling portion (120) may have a plurality of protrusions formed on the outer peripheral surface to facilitate separation from the surgical device (20).

[0047] The front cap (100) may have a first internal pipe insertion hole (110) formed through the device coupling portion (120) and the rotating member insertion portion (130) so that an internal pipe (500) described later can be inserted.

[0048] The first inner pipe insertion hole (110) is formed in a shape corresponding to the shape of the inner pipe (500) described below, but may be formed with a diameter length equal to the diameter length of the outer circumferential surface of the inner pipe (500).

[0049] A rotating member (200) can be coupled to the front cap (100).

[0050] The rotating member (200) can be rotatably coupled to the rotating member insertion portion (130), which is the front end of the front cap (100), so that rotation is possible.

[0051] The rotating member (200) is formed in a cylindrical shape with a predetermined thickness, and may be formed in a shape in which one side is closed and the other side is open.

[0052] The rotating member (200) may have a front cap connecting portion (220) formed on the inside with a length equal to the diameter of the outer circumferential surface of the device connecting portion (120) and a length shorter than the length of the rotating member (200).

[0053] In addition, the rotating member (200) may have a pin insertion groove (240) formed inwardly from the outer circumferential surface, and a coupling protrusion (230) may be formed protrudingly in a portion where the pin insertion groove (240) is not formed.

[0054] The pin insertion groove (240) is formed in a rectangular parallelepiped shape with a predetermined thickness, and both ends can be formed in a semicircular shape.

[0055] A coupling pin (330) described later can be inserted into the pin insertion groove (240).

[0056] The relationship between the pin insertion groove (240) and the coupling pin (330) will be described later.

[0057] The coupling protrusion (230) is formed in a semicircular shape and can be formed to a predetermined length from one side to the other side of the rotating member (200).

[0058] The coupling protrusion (230) is coupled to the movable member (300) described later, so that when the movable member (300) rotates, the rotating member (200) can also rotate simultaneously.

[0059] The rotating member (200) may have a second internal pipe insertion hole (210) formed through the other end so that an internal pipe (500) described later can be inserted.

[0060] A movable member (300) can be coupled to the rotating member (200).

[0061] The movable member (300) can be movably coupled to the circumferential surface of the rotary member (200) to enable movement.

[0062] The moving member (300) may be formed in a cylindrical shape with one side having a diameter shorter than the other side, and may be formed in a shape in which one side is open and the other side is closed.

[0063] In this way, multiple protrusions can be formed on one side of the cylinder.

[0064] Additionally, the movable member (300) may be provided with a coupling pin (330) to enable coupling with the rotating member (200).

[0065] The coupling pin (330) can be formed into a cylindrical shape having a predetermined length.

[0066] The movable member (300) may have a coupling pin insertion hole (340) formed in an inward direction from the outer circumferential surface so that the coupling pin (330) can be coupled.

[0067] The coupling pin insertion hole (340) is formed in a shape corresponding to the shape of the coupling pin (330) and can be inserted and coupled from the outer side to the inner side of the moving member (300).

[0068] Additionally, the coupling pin insertion hole (340) can be formed to penetrate into the rotating member coupling groove (310) described later.

[0069] The coupling pin (330) can be inserted into the pin insertion groove (240) of the rotating member (200).

[0070] The movable member (300) may have a rotating member joining groove (310) formed on the inside.

[0071] The rotating member joining groove (310) can be formed in a cylindrical shape with an inner circumferential surface having a diameter length equal to the diameter length of the outer circumferential surface of the rotating member (200).

[0072] The rotating member joining groove (310) can be formed with a joining projection insertion groove (320) that protrudes from the inside to the outside.

[0073] The coupling projection (230) of the moving member (300) can be inserted into the coupling projection insertion groove (320).

[0074] Such a movable member (300) may have an external pipe insertion hole (350) formed therethrough with a length equal to the diameter of the outer circumferential surface of the external pipe (400) so that the external pipe (400) can be coupled thereto.

[0075] An external pipe (400) can be connected to the moving member (300).

[0076] The external pipe (400) is formed as a hollow tube having a predetermined length and can be fixedly connected to the movable member (300).

[0077] An inner pipe (500) can be inserted into the outer pipe (400).

[0078] The inner pipe (500) has a diameter length of the outer circumferential surface that is the same as the diameter length of the inner circumferential surface of the outer pipe (400), and can be formed to be longer than the outer pipe (400).

[0079] The inner pipe (500) passes through the movable member (300) and the front cap (100) at one end, but the outer circumference can be fixedly connected to the rotating member (200).

[0080] Additionally, a first flow path (510) may be formed that is connected to the surgical device (20) and through which one or more of foreign substances in the surgical site and the surgical device (20) discharged cleaning fluid flows.

[0081] Here, the wound cleansing solution may be saline solution, but is not limited thereto, and may be any liquid capable of cleansing the wound during surgery.

[0082] A refracting tube (600) can be coupled to the inner pipe (500).

[0083] The refracted tube (600) is connected at one end to the other end of the inner pipe (500) and is connected to the first flow path (510) so that at least one of foreign substances in the surgical site and the cleaning solution for the surgical site discharged by the surgical device (20) can flow, and a second flow path (610) connected to the first flow path (510) can be formed.

[0084] Additionally, the refractory tube (600) is formed of a flexible material and can be bent.

[0085] The basic state of the refracting tube (600) may be a bent state.

[0086] An entry / exit member (700) can be coupled to the refracting tube (600).

[0087] The inlet / outlet member (700) is connected at one end to the other end of the refractory tube (600) and communicates with the second flow path (610) so that at least one of foreign substances in the surgical site and the cleaning solution for the affected area discharged by the surgical device (20) flows inside, and a plurality of inlet / outlet holes (710) can be formed through which the foreign substances in the surgical site are sucked or the cleaning solution for the affected area discharged by the surgical device (20) is discharged.

[0088] The entry / exit member (700) may have a first entry / exit hole (710a) formed in a shape that penetrates the other end, and a plurality of second entry / exit holes (710b) formed that penetrate inward from the outer circumferential surface.

[0089] The first entrance / exit hole (710a) can suck out foreign substances located at the surgical site.

[0090] In addition, the first inlet / outlet hole (710a) is formed through the other end of the inlet / outlet member (700) to accurately discharge the cleaning solution discharged from the surgical device (20) to the surgical site.

[0091] The second entrance / exit hole (710b) can suck out foreign substances located in the surgical site.

[0092] In addition, the second inlet / outlet hole (710b) is formed through the peripheral surface of the inlet / outlet member (700) to discharge the cleaning solution discharged from the surgical device (20) to the periphery of the surgical site.

[0093] This surgical site cleaning device (10) is coupled to a surgical device (20), so that when the surgical device (20) is operated by the user to suck in foreign substances from the surgical site, and when the surgical device (20) is operated to discharge foreign substances, a site cleaning solution is discharged from the surgical device (20) to the surgical site, thereby cleaning the surgical site and making the surgery more comfortable.

[0094] FIG. 7 is a drawing showing a state in which a refractive tube of a surgical wound cleaning device according to one embodiment of the present invention is inserted into the inside of an external pipe.

[0095] Referring to FIG. 7, when the movable member (300) is moved to the other side, the refracted tube (600) is partially unrolled by the external pipe (400) and inserted into the inside of the external pipe (400), and when the movable member (300) is moved to one side, the refracted tube (600) is protruded in the outward direction of the external pipe (400) and can be restored to the bent state by the restoring force.

[0096] Specifically, the refracting tube (600) is coupled to the inner pipe (500), and the inner pipe (500) can be fixedly coupled to the rotating member (200).

[0097] Additionally, the rotating member (200) is coupled to the front cap (100), and the front cap (100) can be coupled to the surgical device (20).

[0098] Here, when a user holds the surgical device (20) and applies an external force to the movable member (300) of the surgical wound cleaning device (10) coupled to the surgical device (20) to move it to the other side, the external pipe (400) fixedly coupled to the movable member (300) can also move in the other direction.

[0099] At this time, the moving member (300) can move by the width of the pin insertion groove (240) by the coupling pin (330) inserted into the rotating member (200).

[0100] Accordingly, when the movable member (300) is moved to one side, the outer pipe (400) pushes the refracted tube (600) fixed by the inner pipe (500), so that a part of the refracted tube (600) is unfolded and inserted into the inner side of the outer pipe (400).

[0101] Accordingly, as the refracting tube (600) is inserted into the external pipe (400), the direction in which the end of the inlet / outlet member (700) connected to the other end faces can gradually change in an angle to become horizontal with the external pipe (400).

[0102] Conversely, when the movable member (300) is moved to the other side and the refracting tube (600) is inserted into the inside of the external pipe (400), and an external force is applied to the movable member (300) so that the movable member (300) and the external pipe (400) are moved to one side, the refracting tube (600) can be restored to a bent state by the restoring force while protruding to the outside of the external pipe (400).

[0103] Accordingly, depending on the direction and degree of movement of the movable member (300), the angle at which the end of the refracting tube (600) is directed is changed, so that the angle at which the end of the entry / exit member (700) coupled to the other end of the refracting tube (600) is directed can be gradually adjusted.

[0104] FIG. 8 is a drawing showing a surgical wound cleaning device according to an embodiment of the present invention being rotated while being coupled to a surgical device, and FIG. 9 is a drawing showing a surgical wound cleaning device according to an embodiment of the present invention being coupled so as to be rotatable.

[0105] Referring to FIGS. 8 and 9, the rotary member (200) can be rotated together with the movable member (300) by the coupling pin (330) and the pin insertion groove (240) when the rotary member (200) is rotated, and the entry / exit member (700) can be rotated together with the internal pipe (500) by coupling with the movable member (300) when the rotary member (200) is rotated.

[0106] As described above, the rotating member (200) and the movable member (300) can be coupled by a coupling pin (330).

[0107] Therefore, when an external force is applied to the movable member (300) and it rotates, the rotating member (200) can also rotate simultaneously.

[0108] At this time, the inner pipe (500) coupled to the rotating member (200) also rotates, and the refracting tube (600) coupled to the inner pipe (500) and the inlet / outlet member (700) coupled to the refracting tube (600) can also rotate.

[0109] In other words, when an external force is applied to the movable member (300), the rotating member (200) coupled with the movable member (300), the internal pipe (500) coupled with the rotating member (200), the refracting tube (600) coupled with the internal pipe (500), and the entry / exit member (700) coupled with the refracting tube (600) also rotate, so that the direction in which the end of the entry / exit member (700) faces can be changed.

[0110] Accordingly, the surgical wound cleaning device (10) rotates and moves by applying an external force to the movable member (300), and the bending tube (600) is inserted into the external pipe (400) and unfolded, or protrudes out of the external pipe (400) and is restored to its original state by a restoring force, thereby changing the direction or angle of the inlet / outlet member (700), so that foreign substances in the surgical site can be easily sucked during surgery, and the wound cleaning liquid discharged from the surgical device (20) can be more easily discharged.

[0111] Meanwhile, a surgical wound cleaning device according to another embodiment will be described below.

[0112] A surgical wound cleaning device according to another embodiment is different from the surgical wound cleaning device according to one embodiment only in the shape of the moving member, the rotating member, and the coupling pin, and other components are the same, so a repeated description will be omitted.

[0113] FIG. 10 is a drawing showing a moving member of a surgical wound cleaning device according to another embodiment of the present invention.

[0114] Referring to Fig. 10, the moving member (300) of the surgical wound cleaning device (10) may be provided with a step portion (360) at one end.

[0115] The single-jaw portion (360) can be formed in a ring shape with a predetermined thickness in the outward direction from one end of the movable member (300).

[0116] This, this single-jaw portion (360) can be formed with a diameter longer than the length of the diameter of the stop of the moving member (300).

[0117] This single-jaw section (360) can prevent the user from slipping off the moving member (300) and causing an error in operation due to foreign substances or blood on the hand when applying an external force to the moving member (300) during surgery to change the angle at which the end of the insertion / extraction member (700) is directed, thereby causing the user to move or rotate the moving member (300).

[0118] Accordingly, the single-jaw unit (360) can prevent misoperation of the surgical wound cleaning device (10) during surgery, thereby reducing user errors.

[0119] FIG. 11 is a drawing showing a state in which a catch portion is formed in a pin insertion groove of a rotating member according to another embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 12 is a drawing showing a state in which a coupling pin is caught in a plurality of catch portions in a pin insertion groove of a rotating member according to another embodiment of the present invention.

[0120] Referring to FIGS. 11 and 12, a catch (250) may be formed in the pin insertion groove (240) of the rotating member (200).

[0121] The catch (250) can be formed to protrude from the inner circumferential surface of the pin insertion groove (240).

[0122] The catch (250) can be formed as a semicircular protrusion.

[0123] Additionally, the engaging portion (250) can be formed of an elastic material whose shape can be changed so that the engaging pin (330) can move while inserted into the pin insertion groove (240).

[0124] This catch (250) can prevent the moving member (300) from moving in the opposite direction when it is moved by allowing the connecting pin (330) to be fitted.

[0125] For example, when the movable member (300) is moved to one side, the catch (250) can keep the coupling pin (330) positioned in one direction by preventing it from moving to the other side.

[0126] However, when an external force exceeding a certain range is applied to the movable member (300), the coupling pin (330) can move from one side to the other side.

[0127] The catch (250) may be formed as a single protrusion on the inner circumferential surface of the pin insertion groove (240), but may be formed as a plurality of protrusions.

[0128] When the catch (250) is formed with a plurality of protrusions, the coupling pin (330) can be moved in stages.

[0129] This catch (250) can fix the coupling pin (330) so that it does not move, thereby preventing the movable member (300) from moving and being fixed.

[0130] Accordingly, the catch (250) allows the movable member (300) to be fixed in a moved state or positioned in a moved direction, thereby allowing the movable member (300) to be fixed in a moved position without the user having to continuously apply an external force to the movable member (300), thereby making it easy and convenient to suction foreign substances from the surgical site and spray the cleaning solution from the surgical device (20).

[0131] FIG. 13 is a drawing showing a state in which a coupling pin is moved from a moving member of a surgical wound cleaning device according to another embodiment of the present invention.

[0132] Referring to FIG. 13, the coupling pin moving part (370) and the coupling pin (330') can prevent the direction of the end of the entry / exit member (700) from being changed by the user's erroneous operation by the movable member (300) being rotated in a state where the direction in which the end of the entry / exit member (700) faces is set.

[0133] For this purpose, the moving member (300) may be equipped with a coupling pin moving part (370).

[0134] First, in another embodiment of the present invention, the rotating member (200) may have the coupling protrusion removed, and the moving member (300) may have the coupling protrusion insertion groove (320) removed.

[0135] The coupling pin moving part (370) is formed in a cylindrical shape and can be formed to protrude outward from the coupling pin insertion hole (340) of the moving member (300) by a predetermined length.

[0136] In this case, a thin silicone film may be provided on the inner circumferential surface of the coupling pin moving part (370) to prevent the coupling pin (330') from easily coming off.

[0137] The coupling pin (330') may not move smoothly or may be fixed in a moved state due to friction generated by the silicone film, which restricts its movement.

[0138] In this case, a coupling pin (330') can be inserted into the coupling pin moving part (370).

[0139] The coupling pin (330') may be formed in a cylindrical shape, and may be formed to have a length from the upper end of the coupling pin moving part (370) to the bottom surface of the pin insertion groove (240).

[0140] In addition, the coupling pin (330') may be formed with a step having a length equal to the diameter of the outer circumferential surface of the coupling pin moving part (370) at the upper end to facilitate movement while inserted into the coupling pin moving part (370).

[0141] This coupling pin (330') allows the movable member (300) and the rotating member (200) to be coupled, and when an external force is applied to the movable member (300), the direction of the entry / exit member (700) can be rotated in a predetermined direction.

[0142] At this time, when the coupling pin (330') moves in the outer direction of the movable member (300), the movable member (300) and the rotating member (200) are separated, so that even if an external force is applied, the direction of the entry / exit member (700) may not change.

[0143] Specifically, when the coupling pin (330') is inserted into the pin insertion groove (240), an external force is applied to the movable member (300) to rotate it, and the direction of the insertion / extraction member (700) is rotated in a predetermined direction, and the coupling pin (330') is moved in the outer direction of the movable member (300), the coupling pin (330') can be separated from the pin insertion groove (240).

[0144] At this time, since the movable member (300) and the rotary member (200) are separated, even if the movable member (300) rotates, the rotary member (200) may not rotate.

[0145] Accordingly, even if the movable member (300) rotates due to a user's misoperation, the rotating member (200) does not rotate, so the inner pipe (500) coupled with the rotating member (200), the refracted tube (600) coupled with the inner pipe (500), and the inlet / outlet member (700) coupled with the refracted tube (600) do not rotate, so that the direction in which the inlet / outlet member (700) faces can be maintained without changing.

[0146] Conversely, when inserting the coupling pin (330') into the pin insertion groove (240) to change the direction in which the insertion / extraction member (700) faces while the coupling pin (330') is separated from the pin insertion groove (240), the coupling pin (330') can be inserted into the pin insertion groove (240) by rotating the moving member (300) while applying an external force so that the coupling pin (330') is inserted from the outside to the inside.

[0147] Specifically, the moving member (300) and the rotating member (200) may need to be combined to change the direction in which the entry / exit member (700) faces.

[0148] At this time, when the movable member (300) is rotated while applying an external force from the outside to the inside to the coupling pin (330'), the coupling pin (330') moves along the outer surface of the rotating member (200) and can be inserted into the inside of the pin insertion groove (240) at the point where the pin insertion groove (240) is located.

[0149] Accordingly, the movable member (300) and the rotary member (200) are combined, and when an external force is applied to the movable member (300) to rotate it, the rotary member (200) also rotates, so that the direction in which the entry / exit member (700) faces can be changed.

[0150] Therefore, the surgical wound cleaning device according to another embodiment of the present invention can reduce user errors during surgery by preventing the user from misoperation.

[0151] Meanwhile, the following is a drawing showing an entry / exit member according to another embodiment of the present invention.

[0152] The input / output member according to another embodiment of the present invention has a different shape of the input / output member compared to the input / output member according to one embodiment of the present invention, and a suction / discharge display member is added, but other components are the same, so a repeated description will be omitted.

[0153] Fig. 14 is a drawing showing an entry / exit member according to a second embodiment of the present invention.

[0154] Referring to Fig. 14, a direction indicator (720) may be formed on the entry / exit member (700).

[0155] The direction indicator (720) can be formed with a predetermined thickness from one end to the other end on the outer surface of the part where the second entry / exit hole (710b) of the entry / exit member (700) is not located.

[0156] This direction indicator (720) can be used to determine in which direction the bending tube (600) bends and protrudes when the moving member (300) is moved to one side and an external force is applied to the moving member (300) while the bending tube (600) is inserted into the inside of the external pipe (400) and moved to the other side.

[0157] Accordingly, the direction indicator (720) enables the user to determine in which direction the refracting tube (600) bends and protrudes when the moving member (300) is moved from one side to the other, thereby preventing the insertion / exit member (700) from touching other parts of the body during surgery, thereby preventing harm or damage to the body and allowing the angle of the insertion / exit member (700) to be changed.

[0158] FIG. 15 is a drawing showing an entry / exit member according to a third embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 16 is an exploded perspective view of an entry / exit member according to a third embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 17 is a drawing showing a cross-section of an entry / exit member according to a third embodiment of the present invention.

[0159] Referring to FIGS. 15 to 17, it is possible to determine whether foreign substances in the surgical site are sucked in or whether a cleaning solution for the surgical site is discharged from the surgical device by means of a suction / discharge indicator (730) coupled to an inlet / outlet member (700).

[0160] Specifically, an insertion hole (740) for inserting an indicator member (730) may be formed in the input / output member (700) to enable attachment of an intake / exhaust indicator member (730).

[0161] The display member insertion hole (740) can be formed by penetrating through the outer peripheral surface of the entry / exit member (700) in an inward direction with a predetermined width and a predetermined length.

[0162] In this case, a suction / discharge indicator member (730) can be combined into the indicator member insertion hole (740).

[0163] The suction / discharge indicator member (730) may be formed in a plate shape with a diameter at the upper end longer than the width of the indicator member insertion hole (740).

[0164] Additionally, the suction / discharge indicator member (730) may be formed in a rod shape with a width equal to the length of the width of the indicator member insertion hole (740).

[0165] The suction / discharge indicator member (730) may be formed in a plate shape with a predetermined thickness and a width at the lower end longer than the width of the indicator member insertion hole (740).

[0166] Additionally, a plate-shaped leakage prevention portion may be formed on the upper part of the lower part of the suction / discharge indicator member (730).

[0167] The leakage prevention part is formed at a predetermined length in one direction and the other direction from the upper part of the lower part of the suction / discharge display member (730), and when the suction / discharge display member (730) moves within the display member insertion hole (740), it can prevent foreign substances in the surgical site flowing inside the inlet / outlet member (700) or the cleaning solution for the surgical site discharged from the surgical device (20) from leaking out into the display member insertion hole (740).

[0168] In addition, the leak prevention part is formed of an elastic material and can be bent to fit the inner circumference of the entry / exit member (700).

[0169] This suction / discharge indicator (730) can determine whether foreign substances in the surgical site are suctioned or a cleaning solution is discharged to the surgical site, depending on the direction in which it moves in the inlet / outlet member (700).

[0170] Specifically, when the surgical device (20) is operated to suck up foreign substances from the surgical site, the suction / discharge indicator (730) inserted into the indicator insertion hole (740) pushes the lower part of the foreign substances from the surgical site from the other direction to one direction, that is, from the direction in which the surgical site is located to the direction in which the surgical device (20) is located, thereby allowing the user to recognize that the foreign substances from the surgical site are being sucked up by looking at the upper part of the suction / discharge indicator (730).

[0171] At this time, foreign substances in the surgical site may not leak out of the insertion / exit member (700) due to the leak prevention unit.

[0172] Conversely, when the surgical device is operated to discharge the wound cleansing liquid to the surgical site, the suction / discharge indicator (730) inserted into the indicator insertion hole (740) pushes the wound cleansing liquid from the lower end in one direction to the other direction, that is, from the direction in which the surgical device (20) is positioned to the direction in which the surgical site is positioned, thereby allowing the user to recognize that the wound cleansing liquid is being discharged to the surgical site by looking at the upper end of the suction / discharge indicator (730).

[0173] At this time, the cleaning solution discharged from the surgical device (20) by the leakage prevention unit may not leak out of the inlet / outlet member (700).

[0174] Accordingly, by enabling the user to determine whether a foreign substance is being sucked from the surgical site or whether a cleaning solution is being discharged to the surgical site based on the direction of movement of the suction / discharge indicator (730) without having to check the surgical device (20), the user can determine whether a foreign substance is being sucked or a cleaning solution is being discharged without having to look at the surgical device (20), thereby enabling the user to focus more on the surgery.

[0175] The drawings and specifications disclose optimal embodiments. While specific terminology has been used herein, it is solely for the purpose of describing the present invention and is not intended to limit the scope of the invention as defined in the claims. Therefore, those skilled in the art will understand that various modifications and equivalent embodiments are possible.
