The base 67 is provided with sensing blocks 672 on both sides corresponding to the two first driving blocks 636 and the corresponding second driving blocks 638, so that the first driving blocks 636 and the second driving blocks 638 can non-contactly absorb the sensing blocks 672 from multiple directions or dimensions. The connecting member 68 includes a male Luer connector 682 and a female Luer connector 684 provided at two opposite ends, which are respectively matched and connected with the female Luer connector 82 at the proximal end of the intracavitary medical device 80 and the male Luer connector 72 of the connecting valve 70. The connecting member 68 is provided with a connecting hole 686 running through the male Luer connector 682 and the female Luer connector 684. The connecting valve 70 can be a two-way two-way valve, a three-way three-way valve, a three-way valve, a straight-through valve, a T valve or a Y valve, etc. as needed.

In this embodiment, the driving member 65 and the sensing member 69 can be a magnetic driving wheel and a magnetic induction wheel, such as a permanent magnetic wheel, an electromagnetic wheel, or a permanent and electromagnetic hybrid type. The magnetic induction wheel is fixed to one end of the connector 68 provided with a male Luer connector 682, and rotates under the non-contact remote control of the magnetic driving wheel. For details, refer to an intracavitary medical device control module and its connecting valve described in Chinese patent application 202310315778.0, and an intracavitary medical device control device and its driving method described in Chinese patent application 202310270354.7, all of which are introduced into the present invention; the first driving block 636 and the second driving block 638 can be driving magnetic blocks, and the sensing block 672 can be an induction magnetic block, such as a permanent magnetic block, an electromagnetic magnetic block, or a permanent and electromagnetic hybrid magnetic block.

[0046] When preparing for surgery, the support arm 14 can be adjusted to rotate relative to the main arm 12, and the support plate 22 can be adjusted to rotate through the rotating joint 16 thereon. The first plug-in portion 624 of the base 62 of the control device 60 is inserted into the two first fixing grooves 588 of the support frame 58, and is fixed by the first electromagnet 589. The female Luer connector 82 of the intracavitary medical device 80 (such as a catheter) is connected to the male Luer connector 682 of the connector 68 and clamped in the second delivery module 44. The intracavitary medical device 84 (such as a guide wire) is inserted into the intracavitary medical device 80, and its proximal end is inserted into the first delivery module 59 and clamped, and the distal end is inserted out of the distal end of the intracavitary medical device 80. The fixed component 66 of the control device 60 is then placed on the control component 61 (generally, the control component 61 has a shell, and the fixed component 66 is placed outside the shell of the control component 61), and the first driving block 636 (such as a driving magnetic block) and the second driving block 638 (such as a driving magnetic block) on the control component 61 and the sensing block 672 (such as a sensing magnetic block) on the fixed component 66 are attracted from multiple directions or multiple dimensions to position each other.

[0047] The first driver 53 is started to drive the gear 554 of the first gear rack mechanism 55 to move linearly along the rack 552, thereby driving the support frame 58 to move linearly on the slide rail 512 of the first slide rail slider mechanism 51. Then the first driving block 636 (such as a driving magnetic block) and the second driving block 638 (such as a driving magnetic block) on the control component 61 firmly and non-contactly absorb the sensing block 672 (such as a sensing magnetic block) on the fixed component 66 from multiple directions or multiple dimensions, thereby driving the fixed component 66 to move linearly through non-contact and spaced control. At the same time, the third driver 25 of the transmission module 20 is started, and the third motion conversion mechanism 30 is used to convert the rotational motion of the third driver 25 into the linear motion of the slider 28 along the slide rail 26, so as to drive the second delivery module 44 to move linearly, so that the control device 60 and the second delivery module 44 can deliver the intracavitary medical device 80 (catheter) together. When the support frame 58 approaches the gripping member 46, the second plug-in portion 622 of the base 62 is inserted into the two second fixing grooves 464 of the gripping member 46, and is fixed by the second electromagnet 466, and the first electromagnet 589 releases the first plug-in portion 624 of the base 62, so that the first driver 53 moves backward with the support frame 58, and the first plug-in portion 624 of the base 62 leaves the two first fixing grooves 588. At this time, the third driver 25 of another transmission module 20 is started, and the third motion conversion mechanism 30 converts the rotational motion of the third driver 25 into the linear motion of the slider 28 along the slide rail 26, so that the gripping member 46 continues to move linearly with the control device 60, so that the intracavitary medical device 80 (catheter) can be further advanced, maximizing the use of the length of the intracavitary medical device 80 (catheter). At the same time or at different times, the control component 61 of the control device 60 and the drive component of the second delivery module 44 respectively control the fixing component 66 and the operating component in a non-contact manner, so that the intracavitary medical device 80 (catheter) rotates. Specifically, the second driver 64 of the control component 61 drives the driving member 65 (magnetic driving wheel) to rotate, thereby non-contactingly controlling the induction member 69 (magnetic induction wheel) to rotate, thereby driving the intracavitary medical device 80 (catheter) fixed to the connecting member 68 to rotate. At the same time or at different times, the first driver 53 can also be used to drive the support frame 58, thereby driving the first delivery module 59 to move linearly to drive the intracavitary medical device 84 (guidewire) to move linearly; at the same time or at different times, the driving component of the first delivery module 59 controls its operating component non-contactly to rotate the intracavitary medical device 84 (guidewire). Thus, the delivery of the intracavitary medical devices 80, 84 is achieved. Preferably, the control device 60 and the second delivery module 44 are synchronously moved linearly to make the intracavitary medical device 80 straight without being tortuous.

[0048] In addition, the intracavitary medical device 84 (guidewire) can be delivered to the position by the first delivery module 59 or the second delivery module 44, and then the intracavitary medical device 80 (catheter) can be delivered by the control device 60 and the second delivery module 44. At this time, the intracavitary medical device 84 (guidewire) is only supported in the first delivery module 59 without being clamped. When the base 62 is fixed on the gripping member 46, the first driver 53 can drive the support frame 58 away from the second surgery execution module 40. Of course, it is best to ensure that the intracavitary medical device 84 (guidewire) does not move.

[0049] In other surgeries, the intracavitary medical device 84 (guide wire) may be omitted, and only the intracavitary medical device 80 (catheter) may be delivered.

[0050] In addition, the withdrawal process of the intracavitary medical device 80 (catheter) and the intracavitary medical device 84 (guidewire) is basically the same as the delivery process, and will not be repeated here.

[0051] In other embodiments, the delivery module 20 may be disposed on the frame 584 of the support frame 58. In this way, the first delivery module 59 may move linearly relative to the control device 60, making it more convenient to deliver and / or withdraw the intracavitary medical device 84.

[0052] In other embodiments, a force measuring mechanism may be provided between the transmission module 20 and the delivery modules 44, 59, specifically referring to a force measuring surgical robot described in Chinese patent application 202211146397.6, the entire contents of which are introduced into the present invention.

[0053] In other embodiments, the connecting valve 70 can be directly fixed to the base 67 of the fixing assembly 66 of the control device 60, so that the female Luer connector 82 of the intracavitary medical device 80 is directly connected to the male Luer connector 72 of the connecting valve 70. In addition, the sensing element 69 can also be fixed to the intracavitary medical device 80.

[0054] In other embodiments, for the above-mentioned linear motion mechanism and drive, in addition to the rack and pinion mechanism and the servo, the linear motion mechanism can also be a screw and a servo (or motor), a conveyor belt (or synchronous belt) or a cable and a rotating wheel and a servo (or motor) and the like.

[0055] The non-contact air-to-air control between the above-mentioned driving member 65 and the sensing member 69 can be realized not only by permanent magnet, but also by electromagnetic drive, electromagnetic induction, electric field coupling, DC resonance, etc. It can be seen that the "non-contact air-to-air control / transmission" of the present invention refers to the control / transmission achieved without contact in space by the transmission mechanism, rather than control / transmission through the air medium, that is, it can also achieve air-to-air control in a vacuum. In short, the "non-contact air-to-air control / transmission" of the present invention is driven by non-contact forces, namely electric field forces, magnetic field forces and other field forces, without the need for a medium, and in a vacuum. Therefore, the use of any field to exert force on the material placed therein to achieve "non-contact air-to-air control / transmission" is also applicable to the present invention. Specifically, refer to a surgical execution device and a surgical robot having the surgical execution device described in Chinese patent application 202310237481.7, a surgical robot device and its operation method described in Chinese patent application 202210803401.5, and a surgical robot described in Chinese patent application 202211105526.7, all of which are introduced into the present invention. Therefore, in essence, the driving member 65 and the sensing member 69 can also be regarded as a rotating active member and a rotating driven member in a general sense, respectively, and frictionless power transmission is achieved between them through a "non-contact remote control / transmission" method.

[0056] Similarly, the mutual attraction and positioning of the first drive block 636 and the second drive block 638 on the control component 61 and the sensing block 672 on the fixed component 66 can be achieved not only by permanent magnetism, but also by non-contact air-controlled methods such as electromagnetic drive, electromagnetic induction, electric field coupling, and DC resonance. Positioning and driving. In essence, the first drive block 636, the second drive block 638, and the sensing block 672 can also be regarded as mobile active parts and mobile driven parts in a general sense, respectively, and power transmission is achieved between them through the "non-contact air-controlled / transmission" method. For details, refer to a surgical execution device and a surgical robot having the surgical execution device described in Chinese patent application 202310237481.7, a surgical robot device and its operation method described in Chinese patent application 202210803401.5, and a surgical robot described in Chinese patent application 202211105526.7, all of which are introduced into the present invention.

[0057] Regarding the relative position relationship between the control component 61 and the fixed component 66 of the control device 60 and the shell setting thereof, specific reference is made to a surgical robot delivery module described in Chinese patent application 202310460639.7, the entire contents of which are introduced into the present invention.

[0058] In summary, the first surgical execution module 50 has a first driver 53, which can drive the first linear moving mechanism to make the support frame 58 move linearly on the first linear guide mechanism, so that the control component 61 fixed to the support frame 58 drives the fixed component 66 to move through a non-contact remote control method, so that the intracavitary medical device 80 fixed to the fixed component 66 can be delivered into the patient's body or withdrawn from the patient's body, to assist the operator in performing the operation, which not only improves the efficiency of the operation, but also reduces the labor intensity of the operator.

[0059] The above magnetic drive wheels and magnetic induction wheels can also be called magnetic wheels, magnetic driving wheels, magnetic gears, magnetic gears, magnetic gears, magnetic suspension wheels, magnetic power wheels, non-contact transmission wheels, magnetic couplers, magnetic transmissions, etc.

[0060] The above-mentioned embodiments only express limited implementation methods of the invention, and their descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, but they cannot be understood as limiting the scope of the invention patent. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this field, without departing from the concept of the invention, several deformations, improvements or deteriorations can be made. For example, the driver in the present invention can also be a motor, a stepper motor, a servo motor or a motor, etc., and the support frame 58 can be set to a lifting type, so that the control device 60 can be raised or lowered as needed. These all belong to the protection scope of the invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the invention patent shall be based on the claims.
