Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of medical surgical robots, and in particular to a ureteroscope surgical robot capable of coordinated operation of multiple instruments. Background Art

[0002] Ureteroscopic lithotripsy is a minimally invasive medical procedure used to treat ureteral stones. In traditional ureteroscopic lithotripsy, the doctor inserts a thin, flexible endoscope through the patient's urethra until it reaches the location of the stone. With the help of the camera on the endoscope, the doctor can directly observe the stone and use lasers or mechanical tools to break it into small pieces. The stone fragments are then removed or naturally excreted from the body. Compared with open surgery, this method has the advantages of less trauma and faster recovery. However, existing ureteroscopic lithotripsy surgical equipment has certain limitations. First, the success of the operation is highly dependent on the doctor's technical level and experience, and the accuracy and safety during the operation have high requirements on the doctor's operating level. Secondly, manual operation of the endoscope may lead to longer operation time, patient discomfort and increased risk of complications. In addition, the doctor's field of view is limited during the operation, and it may sometimes be difficult to accurately locate the stone.

The lifting assembly is fixed on the mobile cart, and the entire surgical robot can move synchronously with the mobile cart.

[0070] The specific working process is as follows:

[0071] 1. Installation of ureteral guide sheath 4

[0072] Adjust the robot's height based on the patient's physical condition using the lifting module 2. Secure the tail end of the ureteral guide sheath 4 between the upper and lower glands 29 and 30 and lock it with the gland lock 31. Start the sheath feed motor 18, which, via the sheath feed screw 19, drives the sheath holder 21 to slide along the sheath feed rail 20, adjusting the position of the ureteral guide sheath 4. Position the head end of the ureteral guide sheath 4 within the patient's urethra and ureter to facilitate smooth insertion of the flexible ureteroscope.

[0073] 2. Soft lens installation

[0074] The soft endoscope is fixed between the left splint 28 and the right splint 26. The soft endoscope tube is introduced into the inside of the ureteral guide sheath 4.

[0075] 3. Adjustment of soft lens position

[0076] 3.1 Adjustment of the feeding position of the soft mirror

[0077] The soft mirror feeding motor 14 is started, and the soft mirror feeding motor 14 drives the soft mirror quick-installing device 9 to slide along the soft mirror feeding guide rail 13 through the soft mirror feeding screw 12 to adjust the soft mirror feeding position.

[0078] 3.2 Adjustment of the curvature of the soft lens

[0079] The flexible lens bending motor 11 is started, and the flexible lens bending motor 11 drives the bending knob 10 to rotate to adjust the curvature of the flexible lens.

[0080] 3.3 Soft lens angle adjustment

[0081] The flexible mirror rotating motor 22 is started, and the flexible mirror rotating motor 22 drives the driving pulley 23, the driven pulley 25, and the hinge plate 33 to rotate in sequence, and then drives the flexible mirror supporting plate 8 and the flexible mirror to rotate, thereby adjusting the angle of the flexible mirror.

[0082] Once the position of the flexible endoscope is determined, ureteroscopic lithotripsy can be performed normally.

[0083] During the above process, the drive module corresponding to the ureteral guide sheath 4 and the drive module corresponding to the flexible endoscope dynamically cooperate. This cooperation not only includes the ureteral guide sheath 4 initially guiding the flexible endoscope into the body, but also, during the operation, as the flexible endoscope moves, the ureteral guide sheath 4 will also make corresponding adjustments to optimize the surgical path and improve surgical safety.

[0084] At the beginning of the procedure, the drive module corresponding to the ureteral guide sheath 4 is responsible for accurately positioning and inserting the ureteral guide sheath 4 into the patient's urethra and ureter, ensuring a safe initial passage for the insertion and operation of the flexible endoscope. Once the ureteral guide sheath 4 reaches its initial position, the flexible endoscope is loaded and connected to the system via the flexible endoscope quick-release device, and then inserted into the patient's body along the ureteral guide sheath 4.

[0085] As the flexible endoscope moves within the body to perform procedures such as lithotripsy, the drive module corresponding to the ureteral guide sheath 4 adjusts the position and posture of the ureteral guide sheath 4 based on the endoscope's real-time position and surgical requirements. This dynamic adjustment allows the endoscope to maneuver more flexibly within the ureter while maintaining a safe and clear view of the surgical field, ensuring efficient and precise execution of lithotripsy and other surgical procedures.

[0086] This dynamic coordination between the flexible endoscope and the ureteral guide sheath 4 significantly improves surgical flexibility and safety, reducing the risk of trauma and complications during surgery. By precisely controlling the position of the ureteral guide sheath 4 in response to the movement of the flexible endoscope, flexible ureteroscopic surgery becomes more efficient and safer, providing patients with a better treatment option.

[0087] 3. Laser guide wire feeding

[0088] The upper roller 36 and the lower roller 40 are installed on their corresponding cover plates, namely the upper roller cover 37 and the lower roller cover 35. A groove is designed between the upper roller 36 and the lower roller to guide the smooth passage of the laser guide wire 41.

[0089] Before the procedure begins, the laser guidewire 41 is placed in the groove formed by the upper roller 36 and the lower roller 40. After ensuring that the laser guidewire 41 is correctly positioned and ready for feeding, the worm gear motor 42 is activated, driving the lower roller 40 to rotate. Due to friction, the upper roller 36 also rotates, and the laser guidewire 41, sandwiched between the two rollers, begins to feed forward. During feeding, the laser guidewire 41 enters the disposable flexible ureteroscope 7 through the three-way connector 38, ensuring stable feeding of the laser guidewire 41.
