Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of endoscopes, and particularly to a variable-focus endoscope. Background Art
[0002] An endoscope is a medical imaging device used to observe various organs and tissues through the human body. It usually consists of a slender lens that can be inserted into different parts of the human body, such as the gastrointestinal tract, respiratory tract, urinary tract, etc., to clearly show the subtle changes in structures such as tissues, blood vessels, cavities, and mucosal folds, thereby obtaining information about the internal structure and condition of the body, which helps doctors clarify the nature, scope, and severity of the lesion, and provides a basis for formulating appropriate diagnosis and treatment plans.
[0003] The operation process of the endoscope is relatively complex. Doctors need to undergo strict training and accumulate practical experience to master it proficiently and ensure the safety of patients. Moreover, most endoscopes provide real-time images, which may be affected by resolution, thus potentially affecting doctors' ability to detect some minor abnormalities. In addition, endoscopes cannot provide structural information like other imaging technologies such as X-rays. Therefore, in some cases, it may be difficult to determine the scope and location of the lesion, thereby affecting the observation effect.
[0004] An inappropriate observation angle of the endoscope may also cause image blurring, distortion, and loss of authenticity, resulting in a limited field of view and making it difficult to accurately judge the specific situation of the observed position, which greatly increases the operation difficulty.

[0068] Specifically, endoscopes are often used for examinations of the digestive tract. When observing with the lens assembly, first hold the handheld housing 1, drive the lens tube 3 to move through the handheld housing 1. Through the setting of the lens tube 3, extend the lens barrel 6 to the observation position. At this time, start the lighting lamp 8 and the zoom lens 7. Through the cooperation of the lighting lamp 8 and the zoom lens 7, observe the observation site. Through the setting of the collecting assembly, the collecting assembly is connected to the display device, so that the image observed by the zoom lens 7 is transmitted to the display device. During the inspection process, when the field of view of the zoom lens 7 is restricted, start the adjusting assembly to adjust the position of the lens tube 3, and at the same time automatically adjust the focal length through the zoom lens 7 to adapt to the distance change between the lens position of the zoom lens 7 and the observation position, so as to facilitate observation. At the same time, through the setting of the drainage assembly, when it is necessary to collect tissues of certain parts during the inspection process, absorb the possible body fluids, thereby reducing the discomfort of the patient. When it is necessary to administer drugs to certain parts of the digestive tract, the drainage assembly can also be used to complete.
[0069] As Figure 3 shown in the figure, the rotating housing 4 is fixedly installed on the lens tube 3, the fixing bracket 5 is fixedly installed on the handheld housing 1, the fixing bracket 5 is rotatably connected to the rotating housing 4, and the collecting assembly is installed on the fixing bracket 5 for collecting the images collected by the lens assembly.

[0070] Specifically, when observing a part using the zoom lens 7, the information observed by the zoom lens 7 is transmitted through the collection wire harness 9. Through the setting of the first connector 10, the information is transmitted to the second wire harness 11. The second wire harness 11 is connected to the display device, so that the collected information is converted into an image in real time through the display device, which is convenient for observation and recording. When adjusting the position of the lens barrel 3, at this time, the lens barrel 3 will rotate relative to the collar 2. At this time, the lens barrel 3 will drive the collection wire harness 9 to rotate. Through the setting of the first connector 10, the first connector 10 will rotate relative to the collection wire harness 9, avoiding the torsion of the collection wire harness 9 and improving the stability of information transmission.
[0071] As Figure 5 , Figure 6 shown, the adjustment assembly is installed on the handheld housing 1 for adjusting the position of the lens assembly. The adjustment assembly includes a rotating cylinder 12, an outer ring 13 and a transmission part. The rotating cylinder 12 is rotatably installed inside the handheld housing 1. The rotating cylinder 12 is fixedly connected to the lens barrel 3. The outer ring 13 is rotatably installed on the handheld housing 1. The rotating cylinder 12 is located inside the outer ring 13. The transmission part is installed on the handheld housing 1 for transmitting power. The transmission part includes an external gear ring 14, an internal gear ring 15 and a transmission gear 16. The external gear ring 14 is fixedly installed on the rotating cylinder 12. The internal gear ring 15 is fixedly installed inside the outer ring 13. The external gear ring 14 is located inside the internal gear ring 15. Two transmission gears 16 are symmetrically and rotatably installed on the handheld housing 1. The two transmission gears 16 are respectively meshed with the external gear ring 14 and the internal gear ring 15.
[0072] Specifically, when adjusting the position of the lens barrel 3, hold and turn the outer ring 13. The outer ring 13 drives the internal gear ring 15 to rotate. The internal gear ring 15 drives the transmission gear 16 to rotate. The transmission gear 16 drives the external gear ring 14 to rotate. The external gear ring 14 drives the rotating cylinder 12 to rotate, thereby driving the lens barrel 3 to rotate in the collar 2, so as to adjust the angular position of the lens barrel 3 by a certain angle.
[0073] As described above, as Figure 8 shown, it further includes an instrument tube 17 and an arc-shaped frame 18. The instrument tube 17 is fixedly installed inside the lens barrel 3. One end of the instrument tube 17 is installed on the lens barrel 6. The connection position of the instrument tube 17 and the lens barrel 6 is located below the zoom lens 7. The other end of the instrument tube 17 is fixedly connected to the rotating shell 4. The arc-shaped frame 18 is fixedly installed on the fixed frame 5. The arc-shaped frame 18 is adapted to the instrument tube 17.
[0074] Specifically, the instrument tube 17 is used for the passage of external instruments, so as to perform operations such as drug administration, tissue collection, and surgery on the examination site through the external instruments. Through the setting of the arc-shaped frame 18, during the process of adjusting the position of the lens barrel 6, a displacement space can be provided for the external instruments, and the instruments are prevented from interfering with other components.
[0075] As Figures 7 to 9 shown, the liquid drainage assembly is installed inside the lens assembly and is used to drain liquid. The liquid drainage assembly includes a water pipe 19, a connecting pipe 20, a water supply part and a drainage part. There are two water pipes 19. The two water pipes 19 are fixedly installed inside the lens tube 3. One end of the two water pipes 19 is located inside the lens barrel 6. The two water pipes 19 are symmetrically arranged relative to the instrument tube 17. A plurality of connecting pipes 20 are equally spaced and communicated at one end of the lens barrel 6 where the two water pipes 19 are located. The connecting pipe 20 is communicated with the lens barrel 6. The water supply part is installed on the fixing bracket 5 and is used for water supply. The drainage part is installed on the water supply part and is used for drainage.
[0076] Specifically, when it is necessary to administer medicine to certain parts of the digestive tract, first connect the liquid supply device and the liquid suction device to the water supply part respectively. At the same time, through the setting of the drainage part, turn on the liquid supply device, drain the liquid into one of the water pipes 19, and then through the setting of the corresponding connecting pipe 20, administer medicine to the designated part. Then when it is necessary to absorb body fluid, start the liquid suction device to suck away the body fluid at the designated part, so as to realize the function of administering medicine or absorbing body fluid to the designated part.
[0077] As described above, as Figure 9 shown, the water supply part includes a pipe joint 21 and a docking ring 22. There are two pipe joints 21. The two pipe joints 21 are fixedly installed on both sides of the handheld housing 1. The two pipe joints 21 are symmetrically arranged. The docking ring 22 is fixedly installed on the fixing bracket 5. The docking ring 22 is hermetically and rotationally connected to the rotating shell 4. It also includes a cavity 23 and a pipeline 24. Cavities 23 are respectively provided on both sides inside the docking ring 22. Pipelines 24 are communicated between the two pipe joints 21 and the two cavities 23.
[0078] Specifically, when supplying liquid, connect the liquid supply device to one of the pipe joints 21, drain the liquid into the pipeline 24 through the pipe joint 21, and then drain the liquid into the cavity 23 through the pipeline 24 to realize liquid supply. When absorbing body fluid, connect the liquid suction device to the other pipe joint 21, suck the liquid at the designated part into the water pipe 19 through the corresponding connecting pipe 20, and enter the corresponding pipeline 24 through the other cavity 23, and then it can be sucked away by the liquid suction device.
[0079] As described above, as Figure 9 shown, the drainage part includes a drainage shell 25 and a through groove 26. Two drainage shells 25 are symmetrically and fixedly installed on the rotating shell 4. The two drainage shells 25 are respectively communicated with the two water pipes 19. Through grooves 26 are respectively opened at positions of the two cavities 23 close to the rotating shell 4. The through groove 26 is adapted to the drainage shell 25.
[0080] Specifically, during liquid supply, the liquid entering the corresponding cavity 23 will enter the corresponding drain housing 25 through the through groove 26, and then enter the corresponding water pipe 19 to achieve liquid supply. When adjusting the position of the lens tube 3, the lens tube 3 will drive the rotating housing 4 to rotate. At this time, the rotating housing 4 will drive the drain housing 25 to rotate. Through the cooperation of the through groove 26 and the cavity 23, the passage and entry of the liquid will not be affected.
[0081] In summary, the endoscope is commonly used for the examination of the digestive tract. When observing with the zoom lens 7, first hold the handheld housing 1, drive the lens tube 3 to move through the handheld housing 1, and extend the lens barrel 6 to the observation position through the setting of the lens tube 3. At this time, start the lighting lamp 8 and the zoom lens 7, and observe the observation site through the cooperation of the lighting lamp 8 and the zoom lens 7. The information observed by the zoom lens 7 will be transmitted through the collection wire harness 9. Through the setting of the first connector 10, the information will be transmitted to the second wire harness 11, and the second wire harness 11 is connected to the display device, so that the information collected by the display device can be converted into an image in real time, which is convenient for observation and recording.
[0082] When the field of view of the zoom lens 7 is restricted, it is necessary to adjust the position of the lens tube 3. Hold and turn the outer ring 13, the outer ring 13 drives the internal gear ring 15 to rotate, the internal gear ring 15 drives the transmission gear 16 to rotate, the transmission gear 16 drives the external gear ring 14 to rotate, and the external gear ring 14 drives the rotating cylinder 12 to rotate, thereby driving the lens tube 3 to rotate in the collar 2, so as to adjust the angular position of the lens tube 3 by a certain angle. At this time, the lens tube 3 will rotate relative to the collar 2. At this time, the lens tube 3 will drive the collection wire harness 9 to rotate. Through the setting of the first connector 10, the first connector 10 will rotate relative to the collection wire harness 9, avoiding the torsion of the collection wire harness 9 and improving the stability of information transmission. At the same time, the zoom lens 7 automatically adjusts the focal length to adapt to the distance change between the lens position of the zoom lens 7 and the observation position, which is convenient for observation. At the same time, as the lens tube 3 rotates, it drives the rotating housing 4 to rotate. At this time, the rotating housing 4 will drive the drain housing 25 to rotate. Through the cooperation of the through groove 26 and the cavity 23, the passage and entry of the liquid will not be affected.
[0083] The instrument tube 17 is used for the passage of external instruments, so that operations such as drug administration, tissue collection, and surgery can be performed on the examination site through the external instruments. Through the setting of the arc-shaped frame 18, during the process of adjusting the position of the lens barrel 6, a displacement space can be provided for the external instruments, and the instruments can be prevented from interfering with other components.
[0084] When it is necessary to collect tissues from certain parts during the inspection, absorb the possible body fluids to reduce the discomfort of the patient. When it is necessary to administer drugs to certain parts of the digestive tract, the liquid drainage component can also be used. When it is necessary to administer drugs to certain parts of the digestive tract, first connect the liquid supply device and the liquid absorption device to the corresponding pipe joints 21 respectively. When supplying liquid, the liquid is discharged into the pipeline 24 through the pipe joint 21, and then the liquid is discharged into the cavity 23 through the pipeline 24. The liquid entering the corresponding cavity 23 will enter the corresponding drain housing 25 through the through groove 26, and then enter the corresponding water pipe 19 to achieve liquid supply. When absorbing body fluids, connect the liquid absorption device to another pipe joint 21, suck the liquid at the specified part into the water pipe 19 through the corresponding connecting pipe 20, and enter the corresponding pipeline 24 through another cavity 23, and then it can be sucked away by the liquid absorption device.
[0085] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.
