Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of medical robots, and in particular to a puncture surgery robot used in a nuclear magnetic resonance environment. Background Art

[0002] With the help of MRI, doctors can identify tumors, inflammation, necrotic lesions and other lesions in the patient's body, which is very helpful for the diagnosis of various diseases of the nervous system, chest, abdomen and limbs. During the puncture operation, due to the small space inside the MRI machine, multiple scans are required to determine whether the puncture is accurate, and the puncture operation must be completed outside the MRI machine. This process greatly increases the complexity of the operation, and has high requirements for the doctor's surgical experience, which prolongs the time of unnecessary surgery and reduces the success rate of the operation.

[0003] At present, in the research of nuclear magnetic compatible puncture robots in China, a breast biopsy device based on supine nuclear magnetic compatible (CN 207886219 U) adopts a double fork mechanism for positioning and puncturing, which not only realizes the full range of interventional treatment of bilateral breast tissue in the supine position, but also reduces the space occupied by the device. The disadvantage is that the overall device adopts a series structure, and the overall accuracy and output force are low during the operation. A nuclear magnetic compatible surgical robot based on wire transmission (CN103417303A) solves the problems of drive compatibility and space compatibility in the nuclear magnetic environment by using wire conduction and external motor. The disadvantage is that the surgical action area is small and complex operations cannot be performed.

[0004] At present, in order for puncture robots to perform stable and accurate puncture work in a nuclear magnetic resonance environment, it is necessary to solve the problems of drive compatibility, material compatibility and space compatibility. In terms of drive compatibility, the current robot drive can be divided into motor drive, hydraulic drive and pneumatic drive. Hydraulic drive is prone to leakage and is not suitable for a neat surgical environment. Pneumatic drive is not suitable for precise surgical operations due to control hysteresis. The ferromagnetic material of the motor will affect the imaging in the nuclear magnetic resonance apparatus, so an external motor can be used as an effective solution to drive compatibility; in terms of space compatibility, due to the relatively narrow nuclear magnetic resonance space, the robot layout is required to be compact. Compared with traditional rigid component drive, rope transmission has the advantages of high precision and small space occupancy. In terms of material compatibility, ferromagnetic materials will affect nuclear magnetic resonance imaging, and ferromagnetic materials are prone to danger in a strong magnetic field environment, so the robot components inside the nuclear magnetic resonance apparatus should be made of non-ferromagnetic materials. Summary of the invention

[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to address the compatibility issues of existing robots working in a nuclear magnetic resonance environment and to propose a bed-fixed flexible cable-driven puncture surgical robot.

[0006] The present invention mentions a bed-fixed flexible cable-driven puncture surgical robot, comprising a rope 1, a drive module 2, a transmission module 3, a guide module 4, a frame 5, a puncture device 6, an initial positioning fixture 7, and a puncture positioning fixture 8. The drive module 2 is installed at the tail of the nuclear magnetic resonance bed, and the drive rope 1 output from the drive module 2 passes through the transmission module 3 and then reaches the guide module 4. The guide module 4 is arranged in a regular hexagon above the frame 5. The ends of the six ropes 1 output from the guide module 4 are staggered and connected to the upper and lower ends of the puncture device 6. Two initial positioning fixtures 7 are installed on the frame 5, and the semicircular clamps at the ends of the two clamps jointly constrain the initial position of the puncture device 6 in the center of the frame 5. The puncture positioning fixture 8 is installed on the supporting leg of the frame 5, and the joint angle is adjusted so that the end puncture hole is opposite to the puncture position. The puncture device 6 passes through the puncture hole, and the puncture device performs puncture under the constraint of the puncture hole.

[0007] The driving module 2 is fixed to the tail end of the nuclear magnetic bed through the two supporting arms of the motor box 2-1. The end of the rope 1 is wound around the pulley 2-2. The pulley 2-2 is fixed to the output shaft of the motor 2-3. The motor 2-3 is installed in the motor box 2-1. The rope 1 is output from the driving module 2.

[0008] The output rope 1 passes through the transmission module 3 and leads to the frame 5 inside the nuclear magnetic resonance machine. Four ropes are symmetrically distributed on both sides according to the central axis of the nuclear magnetic bed, leading to the double-layer wire pulley 3-1 installed at the tail of the nuclear magnetic bed. The two groups of ropes originally perpendicular to the bed surface lead to the inside of the nuclear magnetic resonance machine from different heights; the fifth rope passes through the high-layer wire pulley 3-2 installed on the nuclear magnetic bed and leads to the inside of the nuclear magnetic resonance machine. The sixth rope is installed at the low-layer wire pulley 3-3 at the bottom of the nuclear magnetic bed and leads to the head of the nuclear magnetic bed along the wire channel at the bottom of the bed. The tails of the six driving ropes 1 leading to the nuclear magnetic bed are installed with a male connector 3-4-1, and the head end of the rope for pulling the puncture device 6 is installed with a female connector 3-4-2. The male connector 3-4-1 and the female connector 3-4-2 are connected by threads to form a connecting buckle 3-4 to connect the ropes from the driving module 2 to the puncture device 6.

[0009] The frame 5 is installed inside the nuclear magnetic resonance apparatus, and the four supporting legs at the bottom are fastened to the nuclear magnetic resonance bed. The rope 1 output from the driving module 2 leads to the frame 5 from the two ends, the upper side and the bottom of the nuclear magnetic resonance bed respectively, and then enters the guide ball 4-2 installed above the frame 5. The four ropes leading to the bottom of the frame 5 first pass through the square wire pulley 3-5 and the guide wheel 3-6 installed on the four supporting legs of the frame, and lead to the guide module 4 along the frame supporting legs, and then pass through the wire pulley on the support frame 4-1, and the rope enters from the wire entrance of the guide ball.

[0010] The rope from the bottom of the MRI bed to the head direction, after reaching the head of the MRI bed, passes through the lower wire pulley 3-3, and the direction of the rope originally parallel to the bed surface is changed to the direction perpendicular to the bed, and then reaches the upper wire pulley 3-2, and the direction is changed to be parallel to the bed surface, and enters the guide ball through the wire pulley installed on the support frame 4-1.

[0011] The output from the driving module 2 is directly connected to the rope of the high-level wire pulley 3-2, and the output direction is changed to be parallel to the bed surface direction through the high-level wire pulley 3-2 to lead to the inside of the nuclear magnetic resonance apparatus, and then enters the guide ball through the wire pulley on the support frame 4-1.

[0012] The guide module 4 is composed of a support frame 4-1, a guide ball 4-2, and a ball cover 4-3. The interior of the guide ball 4-2 is composed of an inlet porcelain eye 4-2-1, an outlet porcelain eye 4-2-2, and a hemispherical body 4-2-3. The inlet porcelain eye 4-2-1 is installed at the entrance of the ball center, and the outlet porcelain eye 4-2-2 is installed at the exit of the spherical surface. The two hemispherical bodies 4-2-3 are closed to form a sphere with a spherical sector-shaped gap. The two porcelain eyes are installed in the internal groove formed by the two hemispherical bodies 4-2-3. The rope 1 enters from the spherical sector-shaped gap of the guide ball 4-2, passes through the inlet porcelain eye 4-2-1 at the center of the ball, and is output from the outlet porcelain eye 4-2-2 at the spherical surface. The output direction of the rope 1 passes through the center of the ball. The support frame 4-1 is fixed on the frame 5. The spherical groove formed by the upper part of the support frame 4-1 and the ball cover 4-3 constrains the ball center of the guide ball 4-2 to a fixed position. The guide ball 4-2 rotates in a centered manner. When the guide ball 4-2 rotates, the length of the rope 1 between the wire wheel on the support frame 4-1 and the outlet porcelain eye 4-2-2 remains unchanged. Six guide balls 4-2 are arranged in a regular hexagonal position above the frame 5, and the six ropes 1 output from the guide balls 4-2 are staggered and connected to the upper and lower ends of the puncture device 6.

[0013] The puncture device 6 consists of a puncture needle 6-1, a puncture needle fixing cap 6-2, a support rod 6-3, and an end cap 6-4, wherein the puncture needle 6-1 passes through the puncture needle fixing cap 6-2, the tail end of the puncture needle 6-1 fits with the lower end of the support rod 6-3, the puncture needle fixing cap 6-2 and the lower end of the support rod 6-3 are fastened by threads, the puncture needle 6-1 is fixed to the lower end of the support rod 6-3, the rope output from the three interval guide balls is connected to the groove between the puncture needle fixing cap 6-2 and the support rod 6-3 through the rope buckle at the end; the end cap 6-4 is fixed to the upper part of the support rod 6-3 by threads, the rope output from the other three interval guide balls is connected to the groove between the end cap 6-4 and the support rod 6-3 through the rope buckle at the end, the six ropes 1 output from the guide ball 4-2 are staggered and connected at the upper and lower ends of the puncture device 6, and the puncture device 6 has three degrees of freedom of movement and two degrees of rotational freedom except for rotation around the axis.

[0014] Two initial positioning fixtures 7 are installed at the center of the long opposite sides of the quadrilateral frame 5. The semicircular clamps at the ends of the two fixtures jointly constrain the initial position of the puncture device 6 in the center of the frame 5. The puncture positioning fixture 8 is installed on the supporting leg of the frame 5 and has two joint rotation degrees of freedom. The joint angle is adjusted so that the end puncture hole is opposite to the puncture position. The puncture device 6 passes through the puncture hole and completes the puncture under the constraint of the puncture hole.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0016] (1) In the present invention, the guide ball always rotates with the follower rope under the centering constraints of the support frame and the ball cover, and the output direction of the rope always passes through the center of the guide ball. The center position of the ball is used as the position driving fixed point for the kinematic analysis of the parallel robot.

[0017] (2) The present invention uses motor drive and rope drive, and utilizes the stability of motor output and the good linearity of rope. Compared with the hydraulic and pneumatic drives of other robots, it avoids the hysteresis phenomenon of pneumatic drives during surgical operations and the problem of hydraulic cylinder leakage polluting the environment, thereby ensuring the reliability of the robot equipment during the operation and solving the current robot drive compatibility problem in the nuclear magnetic resonance environment.

[0018] (3) The present invention utilizes an external drive module and a guide system. The drive module is installed at the rear end of the MRI bed and cooperates with a variety of wire wheels to complete the rope drive. The guide system is arranged in a regular hexagon above the frame. The output ropes are staggered and connected to the upper and lower ends of the puncture device. Relying on a simple structural design, the puncture needle can achieve five-degree-of-freedom movement, saving the space occupied by the robot, facilitating the completion of complex surgical operations in a narrow environment, and solving the current space compatibility problem of robots in MRI environments.

[0019] (4) The initial positioning fixture and puncture positioning fixture designed in the present invention, the initial positioning fixture ensures that the initial position of the puncture device is located in the center of the frame, and the puncture positioning fixture constrains the puncture device to stably insert the needle according to the specified position, thereby ensuring the surgical positioning accuracy during the entire surgical operation.

[0020] (5) The robot materials in the nuclear magnetic resonance apparatus of the present invention are all made of engineering plastics, which avoids the imaging and safety problems caused by ferromagnetic materials to the greatest extent and solves the compatibility problem of robot materials in the current nuclear magnetic resonance environment.

The guide ball rotates in a centered manner, and the rope is output in a centered manner. During the rotation of the guide ball, the length of the rope between the wire wheel and the wire porcelain eye remains unchanged. The six guide modules are arranged in a regular hexagon on the frame. The six traction ropes are respectively input from the wire porcelain eye at the center of the guide ball of the guide module, and then output from the wire porcelain eye on the spherical surface. The output direction always passes through the center of the ball. The six output ropes are staggered and connected at the upper and lower parts of the puncture device. The semicircular clamps at the ends of the two initial positioning clamps jointly constrain the initial position of the puncture device to the center of the frame. The joint angle of the puncture positioning clamp is adjusted so that the puncture hole is directly opposite the puncture position. The puncture device passes through the puncture hole. The puncture device performs puncture under the constraint of the puncture hole. The six ropes output from the drive module lead from both ends, the upper side, and the bottom of the nuclear magnetic resonance bed to the inside of the nuclear magnetic resonance instrument.
