[0042] The exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Although the exemplary embodiments of the present invention are shown in the accompanying drawings, it should be understood that the present invention can be implemented in various forms and should not be limited by the embodiments described herein. On the contrary, these embodiments are provided in order to enable a more thorough understanding of the present invention and to fully convey the scope of the present invention to those skilled in the art. It should be noted that the present invention connects the control cable to the operating button of the endoscope handle to illustrate the handheld endoscope instrument converter of the present invention is only a preferred embodiment, and does not limit the scope of protection of the handheld endoscope instrument converter.

[0043] It should be understood that the terms used herein are for the purpose of describing specific example embodiments only and are not intended to be limiting. Unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, the singular forms "a", "an" and "an" as used herein may also be meant to include the plural forms. The terms "comprise", "include" and "have" are inclusive and therefore specify the presence of stated features, elements and / or components, but do not exclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, elements, components, and / or combinations thereof.

[0044] Although the terms first, second, etc. may be used in the text to describe multiple elements, components, regions, layers and / or sections, these elements, components, regions, layers and / or sections should not be limited by these terms. These terms may only be used to distinguish one element, component, region, layer or section from another region, layer or section. Unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, terms such as "first", "second" and other numerical terms do not imply order or sequence when used in the text. In addition, in the description of the utility model, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "set" and "connection" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be directly connected or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium. For those skilled in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the utility model can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0045] For ease of description, spatial relative terms can be used in the text to describe the relationship of an element or feature relative to another element or feature as shown in the figure, and these relative terms are, for example, "front", "rear", "middle", "inside", "longitudinal", "lateral", "side", "vertical", "outside", etc. Such spatial relative terms are intended to include different orientations of the mechanism in use or operation in addition to the orientation depicted in the figure. For example, if the mechanism in the figure flips, the element described as "below other elements or features" or "below other elements or features" will be subsequently oriented to "above other elements or features" or "above other elements or features". Therefore, the example term "below..." can include the orientation on and below. The mechanism can be oriented in addition (rotated 90 degrees or in other directions) and the spatial relative descriptors used in the text are interpreted accordingly.

[0046] Image acquisition, electrosurgical cutting knife, water supply, etc. used in endoscopic examination and treatment are usually controlled by foot pedals. Traditional foot pedal structures are usually placed under the feet of the endoscope operator to facilitate operation.

[0047] However, with the development of endoscopic technology, more and more operating instruments are needed, and operators and assistant nurses are prone to stepping mistakes during complex operations. In addition, because the pedals are connected to cables, operators and assistant nurses are prone to stepping on the cables and tripping during the operation.

[0048] Based on this, the utility model provides a handheld endoscopic instrument converter, which removes the traditional foot pedal and connects the control cable to the operating button of the endoscope handle, thereby eliminating the problem of stepping errors during surgery, reducing the operating error rate, and preventing the operator from tripping due to the cable, thereby increasing safety.

[0049] The specific embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below in conjunction with the handheld endoscope instrument converter of the first aspect of the present invention.

[0050] It should be noted that the handheld endoscopic instrument converter of the first aspect of the utility model is only a preferred embodiment of the utility model. The converter of the utility model can adopt the handheld endoscopic instrument converter of the first aspect of the utility model, and can also adopt other structures. For the convenience of explanation, the specific embodiment of the utility model is explained below through the handheld endoscopic instrument converter of the first aspect of the utility model.
