Obviously, the described embodiments are partial embodiments of the utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the protection scope of the utility model.

[0034] The endoscope external instrument channel structure of the preferred embodiment of the utility model is as follows Figure 1-Figure 4As shown, it is used to be installed on the endoscope insertion end component 1, and an endoscope camera end 3 is arranged inside one end of the endoscope insertion end component 1. This structure includes a surgical instrument channel tube 2 arranged parallel to the peripheral outer wall of the endoscope insertion end component 1. The surgical instrument channel tube 2 can be combined with the endoscope insertion end component 1 to perform surgical operations, thereby replacing the use of biopsy forceps or net basket removal operations. The surgical instrument channel tube 2 is outside the endoscope insertion end component 1, so it can be disassembled and installed, which helps to install the surgical instrument channel tube 2 only when the operation needs to use it, without affecting the normal use of the endoscope insertion end component 1, thereby increasing the convenience of the operation and improving the efficiency of the surgical operation.

[0035] In this embodiment, the endoscope insertion end component 1 and the surgical instrument channel tube 2 are connected together by a channel fixing assembly 4, and the channel fixing assembly 4 includes a plurality of C-shaped fixing ring components 5 equidistantly sleeved on the outer wall of the endoscope insertion end component 1, and a plurality of fixing clamp components 7 equidistantly clamped on the outer wall of the surgical instrument channel tube 2.

[0036] Specifically, the fixing collar 5 is preferably in an annular structure, so that it can be sleeved on the peripheral side of the endoscope insertion end component 1, so that it can be assembled and used together with the fixing clamp 7. The fixing clamp 7 is preferably in a horizontal C-shaped structure, so that surgical instrument channel tubes 2 of different specifications and sizes can be clamped and installed. Since the fixing clamp 7 is made of elastic plastic material, it can be elastic, thereby clamping the surgical instrument channel tube 2 to prevent the surgical instrument channel tube 2 from falling off.

[0037] In this embodiment, the fixed collar member 5 and the fixed clamp member 7 are connected together in a detachable manner, and an upper convex platform 10 is integrally formed on the side of the fixed collar member 5 facing the fixed clamp member 7, and a lower convex platform 11 is integrally formed on the side of the fixed clamp member 7 facing the fixed collar member 5, a screw component 13 is integrally formed in the middle position of the bottom surface of the lower convex platform 11, and an internal threaded hole member 12 for the screw component 13 to be adapted and installed is provided in the middle position of the top surface of the upper convex platform 10.

[0038] Specifically, during installation, the fixing collar 5 is first equidistantly sleeved on the outer wall of the endoscope insertion end component 1, and the fixing clamp 7 is hand-held and screwed so that the screw component 13 and the internal threaded hole component 12 are threadedly connected together, so that the fixing clamp 7 is fixedly installed on the top surface of the fixing collar 5, and the upper convex platform 10 and the lower convex platform 11 are relatively abutted to increase the connection stability. At this time, the surgical instrument channel tube 2 is clamped in multiple fixing clamps 7, so that the fixing clamp 7 clamps the surgical instrument channel tube 2, so that the endoscope insertion end component 1 and the surgical instrument channel tube 2 are assembled and used, which is not only convenient for installation and disassembly, but also can meet the installation of surgical instrument channel tubes 2 and fixing clamps 7 of different specifications and sizes, thereby improving the use efficiency.

[0039] In the present embodiment, a linkage block component 6 capable of assisting the bending of the endoscope insertion end component 1 and the surgical instrument channel tube 2 is clamped between two adjacent fixed collar components 5 and between the endoscope insertion end component 1 and the surgical instrument channel tube 2. A first inner groove 15 for fitting and installing the surgical instrument channel tube 2 is transversely arranged in the middle position of the top surface of the linkage block component 6, and a second inner groove 16 for fitting and installing the endoscope insertion end component 1 is transversely arranged in the middle position of the bottom surface of the linkage block component 6.

[0040] Specifically, the first inner groove 15 is fitted and installed with the surgical instrument channel tube 2, and the second inner groove 16 is fitted and installed with the endoscope insertion end component 1, so that the linkage block component 6 is connected between the endoscope insertion end component 1 and the surgical instrument channel tube 2. When the endoscope insertion end component 1 needs to be bent, the linkage block component 6 can increase the friction between the endoscope insertion end component 1 and the surgical instrument channel tube 2, so that the endoscope insertion end component 1 and the surgical instrument channel tube 2 are tightly connected and will not fall off, thereby improving the connection stability.

[0041] In this embodiment, the circumferential outer walls between two adjacent fixed ring members 5 are symmetrically and integrally connected with auxiliary support connecting parts 8, the inner wall of each auxiliary support connecting part 8 abuts against the outer wall of the endoscope insertion end part 1, and the inner wall of each auxiliary support connecting part 8 is equidistantly and integrally formed with snap-fitting bosses 9, which are squeezed into the outer wall of the endoscope insertion end part 1, and the material of the auxiliary support connecting parts 8 is elastic plastic material.

[0042] Specifically, the auxiliary support connecting component 8 can connect multiple fixed ring components 5 without falling off or tilting, and the snap-fit ​​protrusion 9 squeezed into the outer wall of the endoscope insertion end component 1 can increase the friction of the fixed ring components 5 and improve the installation stability of the fixed ring components 5.

[0043] In this embodiment, the inner wall of each fixing clamp 7 is bonded with an anti-skid rubber pad 14, and the inner wall of the anti-skid rubber pad 14 abuts and wraps around the outer wall of the surgical instrument channel tube 2. Under the action of the anti-skid rubber pad 14, the friction with the surgical instrument channel tube 2 can be increased.

[0044] Working principle:

[0045] When installing the endoscope external instrument channel structure, firstly, the fixing collar 5 is equidistantly sleeved on the outer wall of the endoscope insertion end component 1, and the fixing clamp 7 is screwed by hand, so that the screw component 13 and the internal threaded hole component 12 are threadedly connected together, so that the fixing clamp 7 is fixedly installed on the top surface of the fixing collar 5, and the upper convex platform 10 and the lower convex platform 11 are relatively abutted to increase the connection stability. At this time, the surgical instrument channel pipe 2 is clamped in the multiple fixing clamps 7, so that the fixing clamp 7 clamps the surgical instrument channel pipe 2, so that The endoscope insertion end component 1 and the surgical instrument channel fitting 2 are assembled for use, the first inner groove 15 and the surgical instrument channel fitting 2 are fitted together, and the second inner groove 16 and the endoscope insertion end component 1 are fitted together, so that the linkage block component 6 is connected between the endoscope insertion end component 1 and the surgical instrument channel fitting 2. When the endoscope insertion end component 1 needs to be bent, the linkage block component 6 can increase the friction between the endoscope insertion end component 1 and the surgical instrument channel fitting 2 and will not fall off. The snap-on protrusion 9 is squeezed into the outer wall of the endoscope insertion end component 1.

[0046] It should be understood that those skilled in the art can make improvements or changes based on the above description, and all these improvements and changes should fall within the scope of protection of the claims attached to the utility model.
