Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of tube cutting, and more specifically to an endoscope tube cutting device. Background Art

[0002] The tubing used in the soft endoscope insertion part includes the main hose, clamp channel tube, snake bone outer sleeve, and tip outer sleeve. Due to the limited space of the endoscope, the hardness, inner diameter and outer diameter of each tube are required to be high. In this way, when the hardness and inner diameter of the tube meet the requirements, the outer diameter of the tube should be guaranteed to remain unchanged after cutting, that is, the cutting port of the tube should not be deformed.

[0003] In the existing pipe cutting device, such as the Chinese patent with the published patent number CN217915581U, the driving motor is connected to the disc through a connecting rod, and the disc is provided with an electric telescopic rod with an electric cutting blade connected to the outside, but the electric cutting blade cannot move in the radial direction of the disc, and the positioning feeding module and the matching fixing module are fixedly arranged vertically, so it cannot adapt to the cutting of pipes with different outer diameters; and in the Chinese patent with the published patent number CN212469986U, the pipe is placed on the front end supporting base of the pipe and the rear end supporting base of the pipe, and passes through the cutting channel, and the annular cutting knife rotates circumferentially along the center point of the channel to be cut to cut the pipe in an annular manner. It can be seen that the annular cutting knife cannot move in the radial direction of the cutting channel, and the diameter of the cutting channel is a fixed value, so it cannot adapt to the cutting of pipes with different outer diameters.

[0004] In addition, the tubes in endoscopes are mostly hard thin-walled tubes. Directly using the cutting devices protected by the above two patents to cut them can easily cause deformation of the tube cutting port, resulting in poor cutting quality. In addition, existing cutters are usually thin, and when using the cutter to squeeze the hard tube for cutting, the cutter is prone to bounce, resulting in poor cutting safety and stability.

[0005] In summary, how to provide an endoscopic tube cutting device that can cut hard thin-walled tubes of different outer diameters and has high cutting quality, cutting safety and stability is a problem that urgently needs to be solved by technical personnel in this field. Utility Model Content

[0041] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0042] The core of the utility model is to provide an endoscope tube cutting device, which can cut hard thin-walled tubes with different outer diameters and has high cutting quality, cutting safety and stability.

[0043] It should be noted that the forward and backward movement described below refers to movement along the axial direction of the core rod 4 , and the left and right movement refers to movement along the axial direction perpendicular to the core rod 4 .

[0044] The present application provides an endoscopic tube cutting device, comprising a tube rotating mechanism 1, a cutter feeding mechanism 2 and a cutter moving mechanism 3.

[0045] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The pipe rotating mechanism 1 includes two clamping assemblies symmetrically spaced apart and a mandrel 4 located between the two clamping assemblies. The outer periphery of the mandrel 4 is used for coaxially sleeved pipes. The two clamping assemblies are used for clamping the mandrel 4 and the pipes to rotate together.

[0046] Among them, the two clamping assemblies are arranged at a certain distance according to the length of the pipe to be cut, and the two clamping assemblies are arranged symmetrically to ensure that the core rod 4 and the pipe are placed horizontally, which is convenient for cutting. The core rod 4 has good rigidity. It is inserted into the thin-walled pipe and has the effect of supporting the pipe, which can effectively prevent the thin-walled pipe from deforming during the cutting operation. The function of the clamping assembly is to clamp the core rod 4 and the pipe to rotate together. It should be noted that when the inner diameter of the pipe is constant, that is, when the diameter of the core rod 4 is constant, the clamping assembly can clamp pipes of different outer diameters.

[0047] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 The cutter feeding mechanism 2 includes a base 201, a driving assembly and a slide 202 both arranged on the base 201, and a cutter guide seat 203 arranged on the slide 202. The cutter guide seat 203 is provided with a cutter 217 arranged perpendicular to the axial direction of the core rod 4 on the side facing the core rod 4. The cutter guide seat 203 is connected to the slide 202 through an elastic buffer 204 on the side facing away from the core rod 4. The driving assembly is connected to the slide 202 for driving the slide 202 to reciprocate along the axial direction perpendicular to the core rod 4.

[0048] Among them, the base 201 can be arranged below the pipe and the core rod 4, the fixed end of the driving assembly is arranged on the rear side of the base 201 away from the core rod 4, and the driving end is connected to the slide 202. A cutter guide seat 203 is arranged on the slide 202, and a cutter 217 is arranged on the front side of the cutter guide seat 203 facing the core rod 4, and the cutter 217 is arranged perpendicular to the axial direction of the core rod 4 to ensure the flatness of the pipe cutting port. A spring is connected between the rear side of the cutter guide seat 203 facing away from the core rod 4 and the slide 202, so that the cutter guide seat 203 can slide back and forth on the slider.

[0049] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2The cutter moving mechanism 3 is connected to the base 201 and is used to drive the base 201 to move back and forth along the axial direction of the core rod 4.

[0050] The structure of the cutter moving mechanism 3 is not limited, as long as its driving end is connected to the base 201 to drive the base 201 to move left and right, it can drive the cutter 217 to move left and right, thereby moving the cutter 217 to the pipe cutting position according to the set cutting length.

[0051] Specifically, when the endoscope tube cutting device with the above-mentioned structure is used, the tube is sleeved on the outer periphery of the mandrel 4 and the two are clamped together between the two clamping assemblies, wherein the mandrel 4 supports the tube, and even if the tube is a hard thin-walled tube, it will not be deformed, which is conducive to improving the cutting quality; the cutter moving mechanism 3 drives the base 201 to move to the tube cutting position along the axial direction of the mandrel 4 according to the set cutting length, and then the driving assembly drives the slide 202 to move toward the tube along the axial direction perpendicular to the mandrel 4, and makes the cutter 217 squeeze the tube and feed the cutter 217 to the tube. At the same time, the two clamping assemblies drive the tube and The mandrel 4 rotates together to achieve pipe cutting, wherein when the cutter 217 contacts the pipe, on the one hand, the elastic buffer 204 plays a buffering role, so that the cutter 217 squeezes and cuts the pipe in a relatively gentle manner, which can avoid the mandrel 4 with greater rigidity from damaging the cutter 217 or even causing the cutter to bounce, thereby improving the cutting safety and stability, on the other hand, under the elastic force of the elastic buffer 204, the cutter guide seat 203 slides back and forth on the slide seat 202 relative to the pipe, that is, the cutter 217 slides back and forth relative to the pipe, so as to compensate for the feed error of the cutter 217, thereby improving the cutting quality. In addition, it should be noted that if the two clamping assemblies clamp hard thin-walled pipes of different outer diameters for cutting, the drive assembly can adjust the position of the cutter 217 to achieve the cutter 217 squeezing and cutting the pipe. Therefore, the endoscope pipe cutting device of the present application can cut hard thin-walled pipes of different outer diameters, and has high cutting quality, cutting safety and stability.

[0052] Optional, please refer to Figure 1 The present application also includes a workbench 5, on which the pipe rotating mechanism 1, the cutter feeding mechanism 2 and the cutter moving mechanism 3 are all arranged. The workbench 5 provides an orderly working space for each mechanism and facilitates the overall transportation of the device.

[0053] In order to improve the connection stability between the cutter guide seat 203 and the slide seat 202 and prevent the cutter guide seat 203 from sliding out of the slide seat 202, based on the above embodiment, please refer to Figure 6A baffle 213 is provided on the side of the top of the slide 202 facing away from the core rod 4, and a locking bolt 214 is penetrated through the baffle 213. The cutter guide seat 203 is located at the top of the slide 202 and is penetrated by a locking nut bolt 215. The cutter guide seat 203 is connected to the baffle 213 by locking the locking nut bolt 215 and the locking nut bolt 214, and a buffer gap is left between the cutter guide seat 203 and the baffle 213, and the elastic buffer 204 is located in the buffer gap.

[0054] Specifically, the cutter guide seat 203 is placed on the top surface of the slide seat 202, and the rear side of the top of the slide seat 202 facing away from the core rod 4 is integrally connected to the baffle 213, a first bolt hole is set on the baffle 213, and the cutter guide seat 203 is set with a second bolt hole opposite to the first bolt hole. It should be noted that the locking nut bolt 215 is a threaded connector with an internal thread, and the locking sub-bolt 214 is a threaded connector with an external thread. In this way, the first bolt hole is provided with an internal thread that is threadedly connected to the locking sub-bolt 214, and the second bolt hole needs to penetrate the cutter guide seat 203 and slide with the smooth outer wall of the locking nut bolt 215, wherein the length of the locking nut bolt 215 should be greater than the thickness of the cutter guide seat 203, so that the cutter guide seat 203 has a certain sliding distance on the slide seat 202, and the rear side of the cutter guide seat 203 facing away from the core rod 4 is connected to the baffle 213 through a spring. Therefore, the use of the locking bolts in the above structure to connect the cutter guide seat 203 and the slide seat 202 can not only improve the connection stability between the cutter guide seat 203 and the slide seat 202 without affecting the forward and backward sliding of the cutter guide seat 203, but also prevent the cutter guide seat 203 from sliding out of the slide seat 202. In addition, it should be noted that the length direction is based on the axial direction perpendicular to the core rod 4, and the length of the cutter guide seat 203 is smaller than the length of the slide seat 202, so that the slide seat 202 can better provide stable support for the cutter guide seat 203.

[0055] Optionally, the axial directions of the locking sub-bolt 214 and the locking nut bolt 215 are perpendicular to the axial direction of the core rod 4, so that the cutter guide seat 203 moves back and forth along the axial direction perpendicular to the core rod 4, so that the cutter guide seat 203 plays a role of guiding the cutter 217 to move, thereby ensuring the verticality of the cutter 217 and the pipe, thereby achieving the purpose of improving the flatness of the pipe cutting port.

[0056] In order to reduce the jumping rate of the cutter 217 and improve the verticality of the cutter 217 when rotating, based on the above embodiment, please refer to Figures 6 to 8, two symmetrically arranged clamping plates 216 are provided on the side of the cutter guide seat 203 facing the mandrel 4, a gap is left between the two clamping plates 216, a support 218 arranged along the axial direction of the mandrel 4 is provided in the gap, the end of the support 218 is rotatably connected to the clamping plate 216 through a first bearing 219, and the cutter 217 is sleeved on the support 218 and extends out of the gap. In this way, the support 218 and the first bearing 219 rotate in coordination, so that the cutter 217 can rotate smoothly relative to the cutter guide seat 203, so as to reduce the runout rate of the cutter 217, thereby improving the verticality of the cutter 217 when rotating, and also helping to improve the flatness of the pipe cutting port, thereby improving the cutting quality.

[0057] Optionally, the two clamping plates 216 are detachably connected via a fastening screw 220 to facilitate assembly and disassembly of the cutter 217 .

[0058] In addition, the structure of the cutter 217 of the present application is not unique, and the cutter 217 can adopt a circular blade or other structures as long as the pipe cutting requirements are met.

[0059] In order to avoid the interference between the cutter 217 and the clamping plate 216 when the cutter 217 rotates, based on the above embodiment, please refer to Figure 8 , the opposite sides of the two clamping plates 216 are provided with a base surface located directly below the cutter 217, and a cutter slit 221 for avoiding the cutter 217 is provided on the side of the base surface close to the cutter 217. Specifically, a groove-shaped gap is formed between the two clamping plates 216 located directly above the base surface, and the cutter slit 221 is provided on the side of the base surface close to the gap to avoid friction and collision between the cutter 217 and the clamping plates 216 when the cutter 217 rotates, thereby ensuring the smooth rotation of the cutter 217 and protecting the cutter 217 and the clamping plates 216 from damage.

[0062] Optionally, the output shaft of the first motor 205 is connected to the first screw rod 206 via the second coupling 207 so that the first screw rod 206 rotates smoothly, thereby facilitating the smoothness of the sliding of the slide 202 and further ensuring the verticality of the cutter 217 and the pipe.
