[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of surgical instruments, and specifically to an injection surgical robot and a method for using the same. Background Art

[0002] Currently, fundus injection procedures require extremely high precision, especially for subretinal injections and retinal vascular punctures. However, due to the complex and fragile structure of the eyeball, physiological tremors in the surgeon's hands can significantly affect surgical precision and even cause harm to the patient.

[0017] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present invention further provides the following technical solution: a method for using an injection surgical robot, according to the injection surgical robot, the steps are as follows:

[0018] (1) Initial state: All eight SMA wires are in a stretched state, and the drug delivery cavity is suspended relative to the housing under the joint pulling of the eight SMA wires;

[0019] (2) When using the injection surgical robot, the controller applies different on-off conditions to the eight SMA wires to achieve motion control of the drug delivery cavity;

[0020] (3) If the four SMA wires on the left side of the drug delivery chamber contract simultaneously, the drug delivery chamber will move horizontally to the left;

[0021] If the four SMA wires on the right side of the drug delivery cavity contract simultaneously, the drug delivery cavity will move horizontally to the right;

[0022] If the four SMA wires located on the upper side of the liquid medicine delivery cavity contract simultaneously, the liquid medicine delivery cavity will move upward in translation;

[0023] If the four SMA wires located on the lower side of the liquid medicine delivery cavity contract simultaneously, the liquid medicine delivery cavity will move horizontally downward;

[0024] If the four SMA wires connected to the rear end of the liquid medicine delivery cavity contract at the same time, the liquid medicine delivery cavity will move forward in translation;

[0025] If the four SMA wires connected to the front end of the drug delivery cavity contract at the same time, the drug delivery cavity will move backward in translation;

[0026] If the six SMA wires located on the upper and left sides of the drug delivery cavity contract at the same time, the drug delivery cavity will move horizontally to the upper left;

[0030] (4) When the SMA wire is energized, it tends to contract from its original stretched state until it reaches a state of force balance, thus achieving stable operation control of the drug delivery cavity;

[0031] (5) According to the control method of the SMA wire in step (3), the needle is driven to move within a preset range through the liquid medicine delivery cavity;

[0032] (6) During the operation, due to the vibration of the user's hand, the sensor in the injection surgery robot detects the vibration signal and feeds it back to the controller. The controller controls the SMA eight-wire motor to run in the opposite direction of the vibration, thereby achieving vibration reduction and anti-shake of the needle;

[0033] (7) At the same time, the operation button controls the stepper motor to run, and the transmission screw rotates accordingly, thereby driving the screw driver to move on the transmission screw, and finally driving the piston push rod to advance inside the liquid medicine storage chamber;

[0049] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0050] Example 1

[0051] See also Figure 1-Figure 3 The present invention provides a technical solution: an injection surgical robot comprising an anti-shake needle head 1, an automatic liquid medicine delivery device 2, and a housing 3 for mounting the anti-shake needle head 1 and the automatic liquid medicine delivery device 2. The anti-shake needle head 1 comprises a stabilizer, a liquid medicine delivery chamber 5, and a needle head 6. The automatic liquid medicine delivery device 2 comprises a liquid medicine storage chamber 10 and a screw drive propeller 11. The stabilizer is mounted between the housing 3 and the liquid medicine delivery chamber 5. The needle head 6 is connected to one end of the liquid medicine delivery chamber 5, and the other end of the liquid medicine delivery chamber 5 is connected to the liquid medicine storage chamber 10 via a flexible tube 9. The movable end of the screw drive propeller 11 is connected to a liquid medicine injection piston in the liquid medicine storage chamber 10. The built-in stabilizer is a structure connected between the handheld housing 3 and the automatic syringe, used to stabilize the syringe and reduce the impact of hand shake on injection accuracy. The stabilizer, through a drive control circuit, can automatically detect shake and guide the syringe in a direction that counteracts the shake. The automatic liquid medicine delivery device 2 can automatically deliver liquid medicine, eliminating the traditional manual injection method.

[0052] At the same time, in order to improve the control accuracy, multiple stabilizers can be deployed, and multiple stabilizers can be arranged in the length direction inside the shell 3 to achieve the effect of redundant drive, further improving the stability and fault tolerance of the robot, thereby improving the surgical accuracy and safety.

[0053] Example 2

[0054] On the basis of Example 1, Figure 4-Figure 5 As shown, the stabilizer is an SMA motor and its drive control circuit. The stabilizer reduces and corrects any vibrations that may occur with the needle 6 during the surgical procedure. The SMA wire 7 of the SMA motor pulls the drug delivery chamber 5 and the needle 6 together, allowing them to have multiple degrees of freedom within a certain space. The position of the injection needle 6 is automatically adjusted under the signal control and feedback of the drive control circuit. During the fundus injection procedure, the doctor controls the operation of the screw drive propeller 11 by operating the button 17 to automatically push the drug solution. The control circuit of the screw drive propeller 11, powered by an external power supply, precisely controls the screw drive propeller 11 to slowly push the drug solution into the drug delivery chamber 5. The anti-shake needle 1 design with shock absorption and automatic alignment functions, coupled with the one-button automatic drug delivery device 2, significantly improves the accuracy and fault tolerance of fundus injection surgery while reducing the difficulty and risk of the operation.

[0055] Example 3

[0056] On the basis of Example 2, Figure 6-Figure 9 As shown, the following will be explained by a single stabilizer, that is, a set of SMA eight-wire motors 4:

[0057] The inner wall of the housing 3 and the drug delivery chamber 5 are both equipped with locking mechanisms 8. The SMA wires 7 of the SMA motors are clamped and secured at both ends by corresponding locking mechanisms 8. Eight SMA motors are provided, and these eight SMA motors form an eight-wire SMA motor 4. The eight SMA wires 7 coordinate with each other to pull the object in free motion under the control of electrical signals from a drive control circuit. The eight SMA wires 7 serve as the driving wires of the eight-wire motor, and are arranged in an antagonistic manner. For example, when one group of SMA wires 7 contracts when energized, the other group relaxes, thereby achieving precise control of multiple degrees of freedom. Each SMA wire 7 can be independently controlled, achieving different degrees of contraction through precise current control, thereby enabling precise position adjustment. The eight-wire configuration enables motion control in multiple directions, such as X, Y, and Z, as well as rotation. This multi-directional control capability allows doctors to more precisely control the position of the injection needle 6.

[0058] SMA wire 7 is typically a shape memory alloy wire, primarily made of nickel-titanium alloy. When heated by electricity, the SMA wire 7 contracts or deforms, thereby driving the movement of the object to which it is connected. The SMA wire 7 exhibits superelasticity, allowing it to return to its original shape after heating within a wide deformation range, enabling the SMA eight-wire motor 4 to maintain stable performance in complex mechanical environments. The SMA wire 7 also possesses high strength and fatigue life, enabling the eight-wire motor to withstand repeated stresses without breaking easily.

[0059] Further, such as Figure 9 As shown, the drive control circuit of the SMA eight-wire motor 4 is connected to each SMA wire 7. One end of the SMA wire 7 is connected to the current input terminal, and the other end is connected to GND. The drive control circuit of the SMA eight-wire motor 4 includes a power management unit, a current source, an automatic control unit for energizing the SMA wire 7, an amplifier, an acceleration sensor feedback control loop, a filter circuit, a temperature sensor, and a protection circuit.

[0060] The power management unit includes a voltage stabilizer, a power converter, etc., which needs to convert the external power supply and provide stable voltage and current to the drive control circuit of the entire SMA eight-wire motor 4;

[0061] The current source provides the required current to the SMA wire 7 to generate the heat required for deformation, and needs to be able to precisely control the magnitude and duration of the current;

[0062] The automatic control unit to which the SMA wire 7 is energized processes the data from the temperature sensor and the acceleration sensor and controls the current source according to a preset algorithm;

[0063] The amplifier amplifies the signal of the control unit to drive the SMA wire 7;

[0064] The acceleration sensor feedback control loop adjusts the control signal according to the actual motion output of the doctor operating the surgical robot to achieve closed-loop control;

[0065] The filter circuit is used to reduce electromagnetic interference in the operating room and improve the stability and reliability of the circuit;

[0066] The temperature sensor and protection circuit are used to monitor the temperature of the SMA wire 7 to ensure that the heating process is within a safe and effective range. The temperature sensor and protection circuit can be a thermocouple, a thermistor or other types of temperature sensors.

[0067] The automatic control unit that powers the SMA wires 7 processes data from the temperature sensor and accelerometer, amplifies the control unit's signal through an amplifier, and controls the magnitude and duration of the current output to each SMA wire according to a preset algorithm. A filter circuit reduces electromagnetic interference within the operating room and improves the circuit's stability and reliability. A temperature sensor and protection circuit monitor the temperature of the SMA wires 7 to ensure that the heating process remains within a safe and effective range. The vertical, horizontal, forward, backward, and combined translation of the drug delivery chamber 5 is determined by the current provided by the current source to each SMA wire 7.

[0068] Example 4

[0069] On the basis of Example 3, Figure 6-Figure 9 As shown, the thread locking mechanism 8 includes a first thread locking mechanism provided on the housing 3 and a second thread locking mechanism provided on the liquid medicine delivery chamber 5 , and the first thread locking mechanism and the second thread locking mechanism are cross-shaped and distributed in the end surface direction.

[0070] There are four first locking wire mechanisms, and each two first locking wire mechanisms form a group and are arranged in the front-to-back direction of the same side of the shell 3, and the two groups of first locking wire mechanisms are symmetrically arranged on the shell 3; there are two second locking wire mechanisms, and the two second locking wire mechanisms are symmetrically arranged on the drug delivery chamber 5; the first locking wire mechanism located at the front end of the shell 3 is connected to the rear end of the second locking wire mechanism through the SMA wire 7 of the SMA motor; the first locking wire mechanism located at the rear end of the shell 3 is connected to the front end of the second locking wire mechanism through the SMA wire 7 of the SMA motor.

[0071] In terms of spatial structure, eight locking mechanisms 8 connected to the SMA wires 7 are arranged at the eight vertices of the cube. Four of these locking mechanisms 8 are fixed to the drug delivery chamber 5, and the remaining four are fixed to the interior of the housing 3. One end of each SMA wire 7 is fixed to the drug delivery chamber 5, and the other end is fixed to the housing 3. This allows the drug delivery chamber 5 to have multiple degrees of freedom relative to the surgical robot housing 3.

[0072] The two ends of the eight SMA wires 7 are fixed by eight locking wire mechanisms 8, of which four locking wire mechanisms 8-1, 8-2, 8-3, and 8-4 are fixed to the auxiliary structure of the drug delivery chamber 5, and the other four locking wire mechanisms 8-5, 8-6, 8-7, and 8-8 are fixed to the inside of the shell 3, so that the drug delivery chamber 5 is suspended relative to the shell 3 under the joint pulling of the eight SMA wires 7.

[0073] like Figure 6-Figure 8As shown, the eight SMA wires are arranged in an antagonistic manner, and at the initial moment, all eight SMA wires are in a stretched state. Since the wire locking mechanisms 8-5, 8-6, 8-7, and 8-8 are fixed to the housing, when different conditions are applied to the SMA wires, the central drug delivery cavity 5 will have the following different motion states:

[0074] If the SMA wires 7-1, 7-2, 7-7, and 7-8 are contracted at the same time, the drug delivery chamber will move horizontally to the right; if the SMA wires 7-3, 7-4, 7-5, and 7-6 are contracted at the same time, the drug delivery chamber will move horizontally to the left; if the SMA wires 7-1, 7-2, 7-3, and 7-4 are contracted at the same time, the drug delivery chamber will move horizontally upward; if the SMA wires 7-5, 7-6, 7-7, and 7-8 are contracted at the same time, the drug delivery chamber will move horizontally downward; if the SMA wires 7-2, 7-4, 7-5, and 7-7 are contracted at the same time, the drug delivery chamber will move horizontally forward; if the SMA wires 7-1, 7-3, 7-6, and 7-7 are contracted at the same time, the drug delivery chamber will move horizontally forward. -8 contract at the same time, the medicine delivery chamber will translate backward; if the SMA lines 7-1, 7-2, 7-3, 7-4, 7-7, and 7-8 contract at the same time, the medicine delivery chamber will translate toward the upper right; if the SMA lines 7-1, 7-2, 7-3, 7-4, 7-5, and 7-6 contract at the same time, the medicine delivery chamber will translate toward the upper left; if the SMA lines 7-1, 7-2, 7-5, 7-6, 7-7, and 7-8 contract at the same time, the medicine delivery chamber will translate toward the lower right; if the SMA lines 7-3, 7-4, 7-5, 7-6, 7-7, and 7-8 contract at the same time, the medicine delivery chamber will translate toward the lower left.

[0075] The aforementioned SMA "contraction" is due to the characteristics of the SMA wire shape memory alloy wire, which can produce a contraction trend from the original stretched state when power is applied until it moves to a state of force balance.

[0076] Example 5

[0077] On the basis of any one of Examples 1-4, Figure 10-11 As shown, the automatic liquid medicine pushing device 2 includes a piston push rod 12, a transmission screw 13, a screw fixing structure 14, a screw driver 15 and a stepper motor 16. The screw fixing structure 14 is installed inside the housing 3, the transmission screw 13 is rotatably installed on the screw fixing structure 14, the screw driver 15 is arranged in conjunction with the transmission screw 13, the piston push rod 12 is connected to the screw driver 15, and the end of the piston push rod 12 close to the needle 6 is connected to the liquid medicine injection propulsion piston in the liquid medicine storage chamber 10, the stepper motor 16 is installed in the housing 3, and the rotating shaft of the stepper motor 16 is connected to one end of the transmission screw 13.

[0078] The piston push rod 12 can also be combined with the liquid injection piston in the liquid storage chamber 10, and is composed of a rubber piston and a push rod; Figure 10-11 As shown, the piston push rod 12 is composed of a rubber piston and four push rods. These push rods pass through four circular holes in the screw fixing structure 14 and can slide back and forth within the holes. Simultaneously, the four push rods also pass through the circular holes in the screw driver 15, where they fit tightly together and cannot slide. Thus, the piston push rod 12 is constrained to have only one axial degree of freedom. When the stepper motor 16 receives a drive signal and begins to rotate, the drive screw 13 rotates accordingly, driving the screw driver 15 along the drive screw 13, and finally the piston push rod 12 is propelled into the liquid medicine storage chamber 10.

[0079] The liquid medicine storage chamber 10 is cylindrical and is used to store liquid medicine to be injected. It is connected to the liquid medicine delivery chamber 5 through a flexible tube 9. The stepping motor 16 drives the transmission screw 13 to rotate, causing the screw driver 15 to move back and forth along the screw, thereby pushing the piston push rod 12 to move.

[0080] The drive control circuit of the live screw transmission propeller 11 includes a power management unit, a button input circuit, a control unit and a stepper motor 16 driver.

[0081] The power management unit provides stable voltage and current to the drive control circuit of the screw drive propeller 11;

[0082] The button input circuit is used for the doctor to operate the button 17 to automatically push the medicine solution;

[0083] The control unit is used to process the input signal from the button 17 and generate a pulse signal to control the stepper motor 16;

[0084] The driver of the stepper motor 16 is used to receive a pulse signal from the control unit and control the rotation of the stepper motor 16 to push the liquid medicine.

[0085] Example 6

[0086] like Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, an observation window is provided on the housing 3 corresponding to the liquid medicine storage cavity 10 , and a liquid medicine scale is provided on the outer wall of the liquid medicine storage cavity 10 .

[0087] Housing 3 is designed to fit the human hand. When using the device, the index finger is placed at button 17, while the remaining fingers naturally pinch housing 3. The surgical robot is operated to direct the injection needle 6 to the lesion site. The delivery of the liquid medicine is controlled by button 17, while the progress of the delivery can be observed through the observation window. External power supply line 18 connects to an external power source, providing a stable power supply to the entire surgical robot. A certain range of motion is reserved for the injection needle 6 at the tip of housing 3 to ensure that the anti-shake function of the needle 6 is not restricted by housing 3.

[0088] Through the technical solution of the present invention, the SMA eight-wire motor 4, composed of eight SMA wires 7 arranged in an antagonistic manner, can precisely control the contraction and relaxation of the eight SMA wires 7 by controlling the input electrical signals. The drive control circuit of the SMA eight-wire motor 4 can control the amount and duration of power applied to each SMA wire 7. The acceleration sensor within the robot outputs the actual motion as an adjustment control signal and feeds it back to the drive control circuit, thus achieving self-control and self-regulation of the eight-wire motor.

[0089] The doctor operates the surgical robot using a button 17 on the housing 3. The automatic liquid medicine delivery mechanism 2 inside the robot delivers the liquid medicine along with the injection needle 6. The automatic liquid medicine delivery mechanism 2 is designed based on a screw drive propeller 11. The drive control circuit of the screw drive propeller 11 drives the stepper motor 16 to rotate, which in turn rotates the drive screw 13, thereby driving the screw driver 15 on the drive screw 13, ultimately causing the piston push rod 12 to advance within the liquid medicine storage chamber 10.

[0090] Through the above-mentioned implementation examples, the present invention not only utilizes the SMA eight-wire motor 4 to automatically identify the robot's own vibration and implement anti-shake motion, achieving anti-vibration and automatic alignment functions, but also automatically pushes the drug solution into the eyeball through the button 17 on the housing 3. This not only improves the tolerance and accuracy of the needle 6 position, but also eliminates the manual injection of the drug solution by the traditional syringe, greatly reducing the difficulty and risk of fundus injection surgery, providing an efficient and safe auxiliary tool for ophthalmic surgery.

[0091] The advantages and positive effects of the present invention are:

[0092] 1. Lightweight: The eight-wire motor has a compact structure and the robot is lightweight, making it easy for doctors to operate flexibly.

[0093] 2. Shock and tremor reduction: Through the shock absorption function of the eight-wire motor, hand tremors are automatically and effectively filtered out to improve surgical stability.

[0094] 3. High precision: Relying on the characteristics of SMA wire, the robot has high repeatability and positioning accuracy, which is significantly better than using traditional fundus syringes.

[0095] 4. Easy to operate: Robot-assisted surgery reduces the doctor's operating burden and reduces surgical risks.

[0096] The above embodiments merely represent several implementation methods of the present application. While the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present invention. It should be noted that a person skilled in the art could make various modifications and improvements without departing from the spirit of the present application, all of which fall within the scope of protection of the present application. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present patent application shall be determined by the appended claims.
