Description
TECHNICAL FIELD

[0002] The field of view of an endoscope is mainly at the front end of the camera, and the interaction between the endoscope and the tissue outside the field of view is often invisible. In clinical practice of manually operating the endoscope, the doctor can judge the interaction between the tip and the tissue by perceiving the torque on the control knob at the handle and combining rich clinical experience. In order to improve the accuracy and safety of treatment, the torque performance and wear resistance of the torque wire are required to be high. At present, the raw material of the medical torque wire is steel wire, which is prone to deformation due to being too thin and too long, and the straightness of the steel wire affects the performance of the torque wire, so the steel wire needs to be straightened multiple times before use.
[0003] In related technologies, the steel wire straightening and cutting device is usually provided with a straightening mechanism, which is constructed with a straightening contact surface to extrude the steel wire to achieve straightening. However, when producing different specifications of steel wire, the position of the straightening contact surface needs to be manually adjusted each time to ensure sufficient contact pressure. The straightening structure has multiple straightening contact surfaces arranged at intervals, which needs to be adjusted multiple times, and the operation is complicated, affecting the production efficiency. Moreover, the manual adjustment has low precision, which easily causes poor straightening effect or over-straightening, causing serious wear of the steel wire. Since the precision requirement of the torque wire formed by the steel wire in the medical field is relatively high, the production quality required by the medical instrument is not easily met.

[0025] Please refer to Figures 1 to 10The present application provides a medical steel wire straightening and cutting device 100, which is used to straighten and cut steel wires so that they can be subsequently processed into torque wires. The medical steel wire straightening and cutting device 100 includes a conveying mechanism 10, a first straightening mechanism 20, a second straightening mechanism 30, a traction mechanism 40, and a cutting mechanism 60. The first straightening mechanism 20 and the second straightening mechanism 30 are sequentially arranged at the output end of the conveying mechanism 10 along the first direction. The conveying mechanism 10 is used to convey the steel wire to the first straightening mechanism 20. The first straightening mechanism 20 can pre-straighten the steel wire and reduce the part of the steel wire that is greatly bent. The second straightening mechanism 30 is used to straighten the steel wire for the second time to further straighten the part of the steel wire that is still bent after pre-straightening, thereby improving the straightening effect of the steel wire and improving production quality. The traction mechanism 40 is arranged at the output end of the second straightening mechanism 30 along the first direction, and is used to pull the steel wire from the second straightening mechanism 30 to promote continuous conveying of the steel wire. The cutting mechanism 60 is placed at the output end of the traction mechanism 40 along the first direction, and is used to cut the steel wire from the traction mechanism 40 .
[0026] Among them, the first direction and the second direction are set at an angle, and are respectively set at an angle to the height direction of the medical wire straightening and cutting equipment 100. For the sake of convenience of explanation, the first direction, the second direction and the height direction are set perpendicular to each other, and the first direction is the x-axis, the second direction is the y-axis, and the height direction is the z-axis.
[0027] like Figure 1 As shown, in an optional embodiment, the conveying mechanism 10 includes a wire drum 11, a first wire winding reel 12, and a metering wire winding member 13, which are arranged at intervals. The first wire winding reel 12 is arranged between the wire drum 11 and the metering wire winding member 13, and the metering wire winding member 13 is arranged at the input end of the first straightening mechanism 20. The wire drum 11 is used to store steel wire. Under the traction force of the traction mechanism 40, the steel wire is continuously conveyed from the wire drum 11 toward the first straightening mechanism 20. The first wire winding reel 12 is used to tension the steel wire, so that the steel wire is kept in a tensioned state and conveyed to the metering wire winding member 13, which facilitates the metering wire winding member 13 to more accurately measure the length of the steel wire. The metering wire winding member 13 outputs the steel wire to the first straightening mechanism 20. Exemplarily, the metering wire winding member 13 includes a second wire winding reel and a metering encoder provided on the second wire winding reel, and the metering encoder is used to measure the length of the steel wire passing through the second wire winding reel.
[0028] like Figure 5As shown in the optional embodiment, the first straightening mechanism 20 is provided with at least two rows of first straightening pieces 21 along the first direction and spaced along the second direction, a steel wire is arranged between the first straightening pieces 21 of the adjacent two rows, each first straightening piece 21 can rotate around its own axis, and the outer surface of each first straightening piece 21 can contact the steel wire to pre-straighten the steel wire, so as to reduce the large bending of the steel wire. In a specific embodiment, as the steel wire is continuously pulled by the traction mechanism 40, the steel wire moves while driving the first straightening piece 21 to rotate, thereby eliminating the need for an additional power source and achieving high efficiency and energy saving.
[0029] As shown in the optional embodiment, the first straightening mechanism 20 is provided with at least two rows of first straightening pieces 21 along the first direction and spaced along the second direction, a steel wire is arranged between the first straightening pieces 21 of the adjacent two rows, each first straightening piece 21 can rotate around its own axis, and the outer surface of each first straightening piece 21 can contact the steel wire to pre-straighten the steel wire, so as to reduce the large bending of the steel wire. In a specific embodiment, as the steel wire is continuously pulled by the traction mechanism 40, the steel wire moves while driving the first straightening piece 21 to rotate, thereby eliminating the need for an additional power source and achieving high efficiency and energy saving. Figure 5 As shown in the optional embodiment, the first straightening mechanism 20 includes two first straightening support seats 22, a first connecting rod 23, and a second elastic member 24. The two first straightening support seats 22 are spaced along the second direction, and each first straightening support seat 22 is rotatably mounted with a first straightening piece 21 to support the rotation of the first straightening piece 21. The first connecting rod 23 is arranged through the two first straightening support seats 22, and the second elastic member 24 is sleeved on the first connecting rod 23 and is arranged between the two first straightening support seats 22 along the second direction. This facilitates adjusting the elastic deformation amount of the second elastic member 24 according to different specifications of the steel wire, thereby changing the distance between the two first straightening support seats 22 to adjust the position of the first straightening piece 21 along the second direction, and ensuring the effect of extrusion straightening of the steel wire. The first connecting rod 23 can be locked after adjusting the distance between the two first straightening support seats 22. The first connecting rod 23 also limits and guides the elastic deformation of the second elastic member 24, which facilitates the deformation of the second elastic member 24 along the extension direction of the first connecting rod 23, thereby improving the stability of the first straightening piece 21 when moving along the second direction.
[0030] As shown in the optional embodiment, the first straightening mechanism 20 is provided with at least two rows of first straightening pieces 21 along the first direction and spaced along the second direction, a steel wire is arranged between the first straightening pieces 21 of the adjacent two rows, each first straightening piece 21 can rotate around its own axis, and the outer surface of each first straightening piece 21 can contact the steel wire to pre-straighten the steel wire, so as to reduce the large bending of the steel wire. In a specific embodiment, as the steel wire is continuously pulled by the traction mechanism 40, the steel wire moves while driving the first straightening piece 21 to rotate, thereby eliminating the need for an additional power source and achieving high efficiency and energy saving. Figure 5 As shown in the specific embodiment, one end of the first connecting rod 23 is arranged through one of the first straightening support seats 22 and is threadedly connected, and the other end is arranged through the other first straightening support seat 22 and abuts against the limiting end face of the other first straightening support seat 22. In this way, by rotating the first connecting rod 23, the length of the first connecting rod 23 inserted into one of the first straightening support seats 22 can be adjusted, and under the action of the elastic force of the second elastic member 24, the other first straightening support seat 22 is always abutted against the limiting end face, thereby adjusting the distance between the two first straightening support seats 22 to adjust the position of the first straightening piece 21 along the second direction.
[0031] As shown in the optional embodiment, the first straightening mechanism 20 is provided with at least two rows of first straightening pieces 21 along the first direction and spaced along the second direction, a steel wire is arranged between the first straightening pieces 21 of the adjacent two rows, each first straightening piece 21 can rotate around its own axis, and the outer surface of each first straightening piece 21 can contact the steel wire to pre-straighten the steel wire, so as to reduce the large bending of the steel wire. In a specific embodiment, as the steel wire is continuously pulled by the traction mechanism 40, the steel wire moves while driving the first straightening piece 21 to rotate, thereby eliminating the need for an additional power source and achieving high efficiency and energy saving. Figures 1 to 4As shown, in an optional embodiment, the second straightening mechanism 30 includes a rotatable straightening bracket 32 and a plurality of second straightening members 33 connected to the straightening bracket 32. The plurality of second straightening members 33 are arranged on both sides of the rotation axis of the straightening bracket 32 and are spaced apart along the first direction. The steel wire passes between two rows of second straightening members 33. The steel wire passes through the plurality of second straightening members 33 in sequence during the movement. The second straightening members 33 act on the steel wire to perform a second straightening while following the rotation of the straightening bracket 32. Since the straightening bracket 32 can drive the second straightening members 33 to rotate accordingly, the plurality of second straightening members 33 can perform a comprehensive straightening of the steel wire circumference, so as to perform a more refined straightening of the small-amplitude curved structure remaining in the steel wire after pre-straightening, thereby improving the straightening effect.
[0032] like Figures 2 to 4 As shown, in a specific embodiment, the second straightening member 33 includes a straightening end 331 that is movable in a direction perpendicular to the rotation axis. The second straightening member 33 acts on the steel wire through the straightening end 331 to straighten the steel wire. The straightening end 331 has a tendency to squeeze toward the steel wire in a direction perpendicular to the rotation axis. Figure 4 As shown, in a specific embodiment, at least part of the straightening end 331 is provided with a flexible protective member 34, and the flexible protective member 34 is used to contact the steel wire so that the straightening end 331 has an extrusion effect on the steel wire while reducing the wear on the steel wire, having a protective effect on the steel wire, ensuring the accuracy of the steel wire, and helping to improve the production quality of the steel wire.
[0033] like Figures 2 to 4 As shown, in a specific embodiment, the straightening end 331 is convexly formed into an arc-shaped surface, and the flexible protective member 34 covers at least the vertex of the arc-shaped surface. In this way, the straightening end 331 forms a single-point action with the steel wire through the flexible protective member 34. The area of the applied force is small, and the pressure on the steel wire is greater. This can achieve a good straightening effect on the structure of the steel wire with a small amplitude bend during the second straightening, and protect the steel wire from wear, minimizing the reduction in the wear resistance of the steel wire due to excessive straightening pressure. For example, the flexible protective member 34 can be made of materials such as silicone and rubber, and can be attached to the straightening end 331 by bonding, tying, or other methods.
[0034] In some embodiments, the straightening end 331 can also move perpendicular to the rotation axis according to the different specifications of the steel wire to achieve adaptive adjustment, and always exerts a pressing force on the steel wire to ensure the straightening effect after adjustment. This configuration eliminates the need to manually adjust the position of the second straightening member 33 perpendicular to the rotation axis according to the different specifications of the steel wire, saving time and improving production efficiency.
[0035] In summary, the first straightening member 21 and the second straightening member 33 are arranged to straighten the steel wire twice, and the straightening end 331 in the second straightening member 33 can be self-adaptively adjusted according to different steel wires. On the basis of ensuring the pressure setting force and the straightening effect, the manpower and time cost are saved, the flexible protective member 34 is arranged to protect the steel wire, the wear of the steel wire in the straightening process is reduced, the production efficiency and quality of the torque wire formed by the steel wire are improved, the wear resistance of the torque wire formed by the steel wire is enhanced, the service life of the torque wire is prolonged, and the quality requirements of the medical torque wire are met.
[0036] As shown in Figure 2 In some other embodiments, the medical steel wire straightening and cutting device 100 further comprises a sleeve 35 installed in the middle of the straightening support 32, which is located between the two second straightening members 33 in the direction perpendicular to the rotation axis and extends in the direction of the rotation axis. When the steel wire enters the second straightening mechanism 30, it can pass through the sleeve 35 under the traction of the traction mechanism 40, the straightening end 331 is pressed on the sleeve 35 and transmits force to the internal steel wire, which further enhances the protection of the steel wire while achieving the straightening effect of extruding the steel wire.
[0037] In optional embodiments, the second straightening mechanism 30 comprises a pressure adjusting member installed on the second straightening member 33 and capable of being pressed on the straightening end 331. The pressure adjusting member is arranged to have a pressure on the straightening end 331 towards the side of the rotation axis, so that the straightening end 331 has the tendency to extrude the steel wire. Further, the pressure adjusting member is compressible in the direction perpendicular to the rotation axis. The steel wire has a reaction force on the straightening end 331 and transmits it to the pressure adjusting member through the straightening end 331, and the pressure adjusting member generates a corresponding compression amount. In this way, the straightening end 331 can move in the direction perpendicular to the rotation axis according to different specifications of the steel wire, realizing self-adaptive adjustment of the straightening end 331.
[0038] As shown in Figures 2 to 4 In a specific embodiment, the second straightening member 33 is provided with a limiting portion 332 on the side away from the straightening end 331 in the direction perpendicular to the rotation axis. The pressure adjusting member comprises a first elastic member 36 connected and pressed between the straightening end 331 and the limiting portion 332. The first elastic member 36 has an elastic force on the straightening end 331, so that the straightening end 331 has the effect of extruding the steel wire. At the same time, the first elastic member 36 can also elastically deform correspondingly to realize self-adaptive adjustment of the straightening end 331 when straightening different specifications of the steel wire.
[0039] In another specific embodiment, the pressure adjusting member comprises a pressure cylinder filled with compressible fluid, and the straightening tip 331 is inserted into the pressure cylinder and presses the fluid. The fluid is usually gas for easy compression. The fluid can generate pressure on the straightening tip 331, so that the straightening tip 331 has a pressing effect on the steel wire, and at the same time, when straightening different specifications of steel wires, the straightening tip 331 can also correspondingly change the compression amount of the pressing fluid, so that the straightening tip 331 generates a corresponding movement stroke to realize the adaptive adjustment of the straightening tip 331.
[0040] Of course, the first elastic member 36 and the pressure cylinder can also be combined and used to enhance the straightening effect on the steel wire.
[0041] As shown in Figures 2 to 4 In an optional embodiment, the second straightening mechanism 30 further comprises a second straightening support seat 31, and the straightening support frame 32 is rotationally connected to the second straightening support seat 31, and the second straightening support seat 31 is used to support the rotation of the straightening support frame 32. The straightening support frame 32 is provided with a guide hole 3201 penetrating in the first direction, and the guide hole 3201 is used to pass the steel wire. In this way, the steel wire continuously passes through the straightening support frame 32 from the guide hole 3201 under the traction of the traction mechanism 40.
[0042] As shown in Figures 2 to 4 In a further embodiment, the plurality of second straightening members 33 on both sides of the rotation axis are arranged in a staggered manner along the direction of the rotation axis. It can be understood that when the steel wire is bent, there is usually a situation that, for example, the steel wire has a first segment and a second segment connected to the first segment, and the first segment is bent towards one of the second straightening members 33 on one side of the rotation axis, and the second segment is usually bent towards the other second straightening member 33 on the other side of the rotation axis under the action of stress. Therefore, through the staggered arrangement of the plurality of second straightening members 33, the plurality of second straightening members 33 can simultaneously contact the structures of different bending directions at different positions of the steel wire and straighten them. For example, among the two adjacent second straightening members 33, one of the second straightening members 33 contacts the first segment to straighten the first segment, and the other second straightening member 33 contacts the second segment to straighten the second segment. The combined effect of the staggered arrangement of the plurality of second straightening members 33 and the rotation of the straightening support frame 32 can simultaneously straighten the structures bent in different directions.
[0043] As shown in Figure 3As shown in the specific embodiment, the straightening support 32 is provided with an assembly opening 3202 penetrating in the direction perpendicular to the rotation axis, the assembly opening 3202 extends in the direction of the rotation axis, and the second straightening member 33 is arranged in the assembly opening 3202 in the direction away from the rotation axis. The second straightening mechanism 30 further comprises a straightening locking member 37, which is sleeved on the part of the second straightening member 33 extending out of the assembly opening 3202 and is locked. For example, the straightening locking member 37 is a nut, which is threadedly connected with the second straightening member 33, and is sleeved on the second straightening member 33 and locked by screwing until the nut abuts against the straightening support 32.

Further, the two traction shafts 42 are drivingly connected through the traction transmission assembly 43 to rotate synchronously and reversely relative to the traction support seat 41. The two traction shafts 42 have a traction gap for penetrating the steel wire, so that the steel wire passes through the traction gap. The two traction shafts 42 can respectively contact the steel wire, and the rotation directions of the two traction shafts 42 are opposite, so as to synchronously form parallel traction forces on both sides of the steel wire to continuously move the steel wire.
[0045] As shown in the specific embodiment, Figure 7 In a specific embodiment, the traction transmission assembly 43 comprises two meshing transmission traction gears 431, one of which is installed on one of the traction shafts 42, and the other is installed on the other traction shaft 42, and the power transmission is achieved through the two meshing transmission traction gears 431 to make the two traction shafts 42 rotate synchronously and reversely.

When the steel wire is not penetrated in the traction gap, the floating block 44 and the limiting block 45 can abut against each other, and when the steel wire passes through the traction gap, the floating block 44 and the limiting block 45 have a gap therebetween.
[0047] Further, the traction mechanism 40 further comprises a third elastic member 46. The third elastic member 46 is connected to the traction support base 41 at one end and connected to the floating block 44 at the other end in the radial direction of the traction shaft 42. The elastic force of the third elastic member 46 can drive the floating block 44 to press against the limiting block 45, thereby promoting the mutual extrusion of the two traction shafts 42 to the steel wire, ensuring the traction effect on the steel wire. At the same time, according to the different thicknesses of the steel wire, the third elastic member 46 can correspondingly elastically deform to adjust the deformation amount of the third elastic member 46, while ensuring the traction of the steel wire, it can adapt to steel wires of different diameters and avoid the steel wire from being stuck.

The medical steel wire straightening and cutting device 100 further comprises a controller, which can transmit the metering signal to the controller when the metering wire winding member 13 meters the required length of the steel wire, and the controller processes the metering signal and sends corresponding control instructions to drive the electromagnetic pusher 622 to actuate the cutting knife 621.
[0055] As shown in Figure 9 and Figure 10 In specific embodiments, the cutting mechanism 60 further comprises an adjusting assembly 63, the adjusting assembly 63 comprises a first adjusting structure 631 and a second adjusting structure 632, the first adjusting structure 631 is connected between the cutting knife 621 and the electromagnetic pusher 622 to adjust the distance between the cutting knife 621 and the electromagnetic pusher 622.

Through the cooperation of the first adjusting structure 631 and the second adjusting structure 632, the cutting position of the cutting knife 621 relative to the steel wire output from the material returning hole 611 is adjusted.
[0056] As shown in Figure 9 and Figure 10 In specific embodiments, the first adjusting structure 631 includes a second connecting rod 6311 connected to the electromagnetic pusher 622, a first connecting arm 6312 and a second connecting arm 6313; the second connecting rod 6311 extends along the axial direction of the material returning hole 611; the first connecting arm 6312 and the second connecting arm 6313 are connected and arranged at an angle, the first connecting arm 6312 is sleeved and connected to the second connecting rod 6311 and is arranged at an angle with the second connecting rod 6311, and the second connecting arm 6313 is connected to the cutter 621 and is arranged at an angle with the cutter 621.

[0059] As shown in Figure 1 In specific embodiments, the conveying mechanism 10, the first straightening mechanism 20, the second straightening mechanism 30, the traction mechanism 40, the driving mechanism 50 and the cutting mechanism 60 are compact in structure and small in space occupation, and therefore at least two groups of them can be arranged at intervals to meet the synchronous conveying, straightening and cutting of multiple steel wires and improve the production efficiency.
[0060] like Figure 1 As shown, in a specific embodiment, the medical wire straightening and cutting device 100 includes a mounting frame 70, and the conveying mechanism 10, the first straightening mechanism 20, the second straightening mechanism 30, the traction mechanism 40, the driving mechanism 50 and the cutting mechanism 60 are all integrated and installed on the mounting frame 70.
[0061] The method for forming a torque wire using the steel wire cut by the medical steel wire straightening and cutting device 100 of the above embodiment includes the following steps: Step 1: Straighten and cut the steel wire to obtain the required length.
[0062] In a specific embodiment, step one is applied to the above-mentioned medical wire straightening and cutting device 100, and step one includes: Step A: The steel wire is input to the conveying mechanism 10 . Specifically, the steel wire is wound on the wire drum 11 , and the steel wire is tensioned on the first wire winding drum 12 and the second wire winding drum of the metering wire winding member 13 .
[0063] Step B: The traction mechanism 40 pulls the steel wire, so that the steel wire from the conveying mechanism 10 can be conveyed to the first straightening mechanism 20 for pre-straightening, and then conveyed to the first straightening mechanism 20 for secondary straightening. The straightened steel wire is conveyed to the cutting mechanism 60; Step C: The cutting mechanism 60 cuts the steel wire.
[0064] It can be understood that, initially, the steel wire output by the conveying mechanism 10 is manually passed through the first straightening mechanism 20, the second straightening mechanism 30 and the traction mechanism 40, and the first straightening member 21 and the second straightening member 33 are adjusted to ensure that the first straightening member 21 and the second straightening member 33 can both contact the steel wire, and then the first straightening mechanism 20, the second straightening mechanism 30 and the traction mechanism 40 are operated simultaneously to straighten the steel wire. The initially unstraightened part of the steel wire can be cut off by the cutting mechanism 60, and then the straightened steel wire is continuously conveyed to the cutting mechanism 60.
[0065] Step 2: Heat treat the cut steel wire to change its internal structure and improve its tensile strength. Specifically, place the steel wire in a heat treatment furnace, raise the temperature to the required treatment temperature, evacuate the furnace, and then introduce inert gas. Set the heat treatment furnace to a constant temperature, typically between 200°C and 250°C, such as 200°C, 225°C, or 250°C. Set the heat treatment time to a constant temperature, such as four hours.
[0066] Step three: the steel wire after heat treatment is cooled to make the steel wire shape and not easy to be oxidized. Specifically, after the heat treatment is finished, the heat treatment furnace is powered off, and the steel wire is naturally cooled to 65-80℃. For example, the steel wire is cooled to 65℃, 70℃ or 80℃. Then, the heat treatment furnace door is opened, and the steel wire is cooled to room temperature in the air.
[0067] Step four: the steel wire after cooling is sequentially subjected to acid cleaning, alkaline cleaning and water cleaning. The acid cleaning is used to remove the oxides and impurities on the surface of the steel wire, the alkaline cleaning is used to neutralize the acidic substances on the surface of the steel wire and make the steel wire have more durable super-slip effect. The water cleaning is used to remove the residual alkaline substances on the surface of the steel wire. Specifically, the cleaning of the steel wire can be completed in an ultrasonic cleaning tank.
[0068] Step five: the cleaned steel wire is subjected to low-temperature baking to form a torque wire. The low-temperature baking is used to evaporate the water on the surface of the steel wire while keeping the performance of the steel wire.
[0069] In summary, the tensile strength of the generated torque wire is improved through the steps of heat treatment, acid and alkali cleaning, etc. When applied to medical devices such as endoscopes, the torque wire is not easy to deform, can better transmit torque, reduce rotation lag, and help the operator to judge the interaction between the end of the device and the tissue, improve the treatment accuracy and safety.
