[0026] The following combination Figures 1-10 The present invention describes a flexible distal-controllable medical device assembly.
[0027] In view of the problem that the disassembly process between the endoscope component and the driving component of the medical device in traditional technology is relatively complicated, in order to address the problems existing in the existing technology, an embodiment of the present invention provides a flexible end-controllable medical device assembly, including a driving mechanism 1, a mounting seat 2 and a detachable mechanism 3.
[0028] See also Figure 1-Figure 3 The drive mechanism 1 includes a drive housing 11, a plurality of drive members 12 and a plurality of transmission members 13 disposed within the drive housing 11, each drive member 12 being drivenly connected to each transmission member 13 in a one-to-one correspondence. A mounting seat 2 is disposed within the drive housing 11 and is provided with a connector. The detachable mechanism 3 includes a mounting housing 31, a flexible distal end controllable medical device 32 disposed within the mounting housing 31, a plurality of pull wire fixtures 33, and a plurality of pull wires.
[0029] The mounting housing 31 is provided with a mating piece, and the connecting piece is adapted to the mating piece so that the mounting housing 31 is detachably connected to the mounting base 2. It should be noted that in conventional technology, when a doctor completes an operation or a malfunction occurs during an operation and needs to disassemble the detachable mechanism, it is necessary to control all parts with detachable functions in the drive mechanism to return to their original positions through a motor before the detachable mechanism can be disassembled. In the present invention, the detachable mechanism 3 is detachably connected to the mounting base 2 outside the drive mechanism 1, so that the detachable mechanism 3 can be disassembled at any time without resetting the drive member 12 or the transmission member 13 in the drive mechanism 1, thereby simplifying the disassembly process of the detachable mechanism 3.
[0030] Specifically, see Figure 10 , the flexible end-controllable medical device 32 is installed at the end of the mounting shell 31, and the flexible end-controllable medical device 32 has a snake bone. The end of the snake bone can be bent by controlling the pull wire, thereby realizing the bending of the flexible end-controllable medical device 32. In the technical solution provided by the present invention, each pull wire fixing member 33 is detachably connected to each transmission member 13, one end of each pull wire is provided at the corresponding pull wire fixing member 33, and the other end is respectively connected to the snake bone. During use, the driving member 12 will drive each transmission member 13 to drive the corresponding pull wire fixing member 33 to move, so that each pull wire drives the snake bone to move with multiple degrees of freedom. It should be noted that through the cooperation of multiple pull wires, pull wire fixing members 33, driving member 12 and transmission member 13, the accuracy of the control effect of the activity of the flexible end-controllable medical device 32 can be improved, so that the multi-degree-of-freedom activity of the flexible end-controllable medical device 32 can be conveniently controlled, and the operation is simpler and more convenient.
[0031] See also Figure 10-14The detachable mechanism 3 also includes a plurality of telescopic sleeves 34 provided in the mounting shell 31, and the size of each sleeve increases successively and is connected to each other. The pull wire fixing part 33 is provided in the sleeve at the end, one end of the pull wire is provided in the pull wire fixing part 33, and the other end is provided in the sleeve, and extends along each sleeve and is connected to the snake bone. It should be noted that when the transmission part 13 pulls the pull wire fixing part 33 back and forth, the telescopic sleeve 34 will extend or shorten. Regardless of whether the telescopic sleeve 34 extends or shortens, the pull wire is always located in the telescopic sleeve 34. By setting the telescopic sleeve 34, on the one hand, the extension direction of the pull wire can be constrained, and on the other hand, it can also protect the pull wire, avoid the pull wire from twisting or rubbing against external components, and extend its service life.
[0032] Since the wire fixing part 33 is still a certain distance away from the flexible end controllable medical device 32, in order to facilitate the connection between the wire and the snake bone, and to improve the range and accuracy of the wire's adjustment of the movement of the flexible end controllable medical device 32. Figure 14 The detachable mechanism 3 further includes a plurality of winding seats 35 disposed within the mounting housing 31. Each winding seat 35 extends along the length of the mounting housing 31 and is symmetrically distributed along the circumference of the mounting housing 31. Specifically, each winding seat 35 is provided with a winding pin 351. The cable is wound around the winding pin 351, which serves to position and steer the cable. After passing around the winding pin 351, the cable extends along the winding seat 35 and connects to the snake bone.
[0033] It should be noted that the number of the pull-wire fixing members 33 can be any, and is generally set to be two or more, such as three or four. In an embodiment provided by the present invention, the pull-wire fixing members 33 include four. Figure 13 The wire fixing member 33 includes a first wire fixing member 331, a second wire fixing member 332, a third wire fixing member 333, and a fourth wire fixing member 334, which are located in the same plane. Referring to the accompanying drawings, the first wire fixing member 331, the second wire fixing member 332, the third wire fixing member 333, and the fourth wire fixing member 334 are at the same straight-line distance from a circle having a radius R and having the axis of the mounting housing 31 as the center.
[0034] It should be noted that the size of R and the straight-line distance are mainly designed according to the size of the mounting housing 31, and it is necessary to ensure that the various wire fixing members 33 can be installed at intervals and do not interfere with each other. Furthermore, the distance between the first wire fixing member 331 and the second wire fixing member 332 and the circle is -a, and the distance between the third wire fixing member 333 and the fourth wire fixing member 334 and the circle is a. Figure 13The four wire-drawing fixtures 33 are arranged in a trapezoidal shape, with the first and second wire-drawing fixtures 331 and 332 located inside the circle, and the third and fourth wire-drawing fixtures 333 and 334 located outside the circle. However, the four wire-drawing fixtures are equidistant from the circle. This arrangement ensures that the wire-drawing fixtures 33 and the transmission member 13 are installed without interfering with each other. Furthermore, it facilitates the arrangement of the winding seat 35 and the winding pin 351, improving the control accuracy and effect of the wire-drawing.
[0035] When there are four wire fixing members 33, there are correspondingly four transmission members 13. Figure 4-Figure 7 The transmission member 13 includes two first transmission members 131 and two second transmission members 132. The first transmission member 131 includes a first transmission block 1311 and a first connecting block 1312. The second transmission block 132 includes a second transmission block 1321 and a second connecting block 1322. The first transmission block 1311 and the second transmission block 1321 are transmission-connected to the corresponding driving member 12 and extend along the length direction of the mounting housing 31. The two first connecting blocks 1312 are arranged opposite each other and extend along the height direction of the mounting housing 31. The two second connecting blocks 1322 are arranged between the two first connecting blocks 1312 and extend along the height direction of the mounting housing 31. As can be seen in the accompanying drawings, the length of the first connecting block 1312 is greater than the length of the second connecting block 1322. In this way, the four wire-drawing fixing members 33 are arranged in a trapezoidal shape for convenience. Specifically, the first connecting block 1312 is provided with a first guide slot 1313, and the second connecting block 1322 is provided with a second guide slot 1323, with the first guide slot 1313 and the second guide slot 1323 being arranged opposite each other. When the detachable mechanism 3 is installed in place with the mounting base 2, the four wire fixing members 33 slide along the corresponding first guide slot 1313 or second guide slot 1323 to the top and are installed in place. In an optional embodiment, the wire fixing members 33 are configured as sliders, which can be cylindrical or square, but this invention is not limited to this.
[0036] The bottoms of the first connecting block 1312 and the second connecting block 1322 are flush but of different lengths, so that the wire fixing members 33 do not interfere with each other and can be arranged in a trapezoidal shape. Figure 7 The transmission member 13 is provided with a force sensor 133, which is used to detect the tension of the pull line, so as to better control the bending posture of the snake bone. The force sensor 133 can be set on the first transmission block 1311 and the second transmission block 1321.
[0037] Furthermore, in the technical solution provided by the present invention, the driving member 12 includes a motor 121, a transmission gear set 122, a synchronous wheel set 123, and a synchronous belt 124. The motor 121 extends along the length direction of the driving housing 11. In an optional embodiment, four motors 121 are arranged at the four corners of the driving housing 11. The motor 121 drives and connects the transmission gear set 122, the transmission gear set 122 is coaxially arranged with the synchronous wheel set 123, and the synchronous belt 124 is sleeved on the synchronous wheel set 123. The first transmission block 1311 or the second transmission block 1321 of each transmission member 13 is connected to the synchronous belt 124, and the synchronous belt 124 can drive the transmission member 13 to reciprocate along the length direction of the driving housing 11. Correspondingly, when the transmission member 13 reciprocates along the length direction of the drive housing 11, it will pull the pull wire fixing member 33 to reciprocate along the length direction of the drive housing 11 (the length direction of the installation housing 31), the telescopic sleeve 34 will retract and contract, and the pull wire movement drives the snake bone to bend the end, thereby realizing the bending of the flexible end-controllable medical device 32.
[0038] Specifically, the transmission gear set 122 includes a first bevel gear 1221 and a second bevel gear 1222, and the synchronous gear set 123 includes a first synchronous gear 1231 and a second synchronous gear 1232. The motor 121 drives and connects the first bevel gear 1221, and the first bevel gear 1221 is transmission-connected to the second bevel gear 1222. The first bevel gear 1221 and the second bevel gear 1222 can complete the change of transmission direction. The first synchronous gear 1231 is coaxially arranged with the second bevel gear 1222 and rotates synchronously with the second bevel gear 1222. The first synchronous gear 1231 and the second synchronous gear 1232 are connected by a synchronous belt 124. It should be noted that the present invention drives the corresponding wire pulling activities through four independent driving members 12 and transmission members 13. Each set of driving members 12 and transmission members 13 can be disassembled independently. When any parts inside the driving member 12 are damaged, they can be quickly replaced, which is beneficial for subsequent maintenance. Furthermore, a PCB board 14, two shielding nets 15, and a fan 16 are provided in the drive housing 11. The PCB board 14 extends in the height direction of the mounting housing 31 and is located between the four drive members 12. All electrical components can be integrated on the PCB board 14. Two shielding nets 15 are provided at both ends of the PCB board 14 to provide electromagnetic shielding. The fan 16 can be provided as one or more fans. A fan window is provided on the drive housing 11. The fan 16 is provided corresponding to the PCB board 14 to achieve heat dissipation of the PCB board 14 and prevent problems caused by overheating of the PCB board 14. Furthermore, a robotic arm conversion part 17 is also provided on the drive housing 11. The robotic arm conversion part 17 is used to connect the robotic arm to enable the drive mechanism 1 to move forward and backward.
[0039] There are various implementations of the connecting member and the mating member. In one embodiment provided by the present invention, the connecting member includes a claw 21 hingedly connected to the mounting base 2, and the mating member includes a slot 311 provided on the mounting housing 31. The mounting base 2 is configured as a semi-enclosed structure, with two claws 21 provided. The two claws 21 respectively engage with corresponding slots 311 to secure the entire detachable mechanism 3 from both sides. Furthermore, the connecting member includes a socket 22 provided on the mounting base 2, and the mating member includes an insert 312 provided on the mounting housing 31. The insert 312 is located at the bottom of the mounting housing 31 and can be inserted into the socket 22 to complete the other installation and positioning of the detachable mechanism 3.
[0040] In an optional embodiment, the flexible end-controllable medical device 32 includes a camera, and the snake-bone movement can drive the camera to rotate and shoot scenes in different directions. The camera generally needs to be powered, please refer to Figure 8 and Figure 9 The mounting base 2 is provided with a male socket 23, and the mounting housing 31 is provided with a female socket 313. The male socket 23 is electrically connected to the PCB board 14, and power is supplied to the male socket 23 via the PCB board 14. The female socket 313 is electrically connected to the camera. When the detachable mechanism 3 is in place, the male socket 23 and the female socket 313 are plugged together to power the camera. It should be noted that the drive housing 11 is provided with an aviation plug 111, which can supply power to the PCB board 14.
[0041] Furthermore, the flexible terminal-controllable medical device 32 is generally connected to an optical fiber. In an optional embodiment, a fiber optic fixing head 24 is provided on the mounting seat 2, and the fiber optic fixing head 24 is diamond-shaped.

In actual application, a suitable fiber optic conduction method can be selected, and the present invention is not limited to this.
[0042] It should be noted that the mounting housing 31 is also provided with a tool inlet 315, and the flexible distal-controllable medical device 32 is also provided with a tool channel, which is connected to the tool inlet 315. Surgical instruments such as biopsy forceps and puncture needles can enter the tool channel of the flexible distal-controllable medical device 32 through the tool inlet 315 and then reach the human body.
