The plunger handle 422 is hinged through the plunger push rod 43 and the plunger push rod fixing pin 22 on the outer wall of the foot cover 2. The inner walls of the air inlet 411 and the air outlet 412 are respectively interspersed with an air intake hose 5 and an air outlet hose 6.
[0025] In this embodiment, the device is placed on the ground for the surgeon to step on. When surgical equipment such as the electric hook and ultrasonic knife cuts tissue in the abdominal cavity and produces smoke, the surgeon can step on the pedal cover 2 with his foot, and push the plunger handle 422 and the plunger 42 to rotate through the plunger push rod 43, thereby opening the valve, so that the smoke gas in the abdominal cavity is discharged through the laparoscopic surgical cannula, the air inlet 411, the valve, and the air outlet 412.
[0026] By changing the angle of the pedal cover 2, the plunger push rod 43 pushes the plunger handle 422 to change the rotation angle of the plunger 42, thereby changing the conductance of the valve body 41 to adjust the abdominal smoke discharge speed.
[0027] Among them, the top outer wall of the pedal base 1 is fixedly connected with a latch seat 11 and a latch seat 2 12, the inner wall of the pedal cover 2 is provided with a latch hole 21, and a latch 3 is inserted in the latch hole 21. The pedal base 1 is hinged to the pedal cover 2 through the latch seat 1 11, the latch seat 2 12, the latch 3, and the latch hole 21.
[0028] In this embodiment, the latch 3 serves as a connecting piece and can pass through the latch hole 21 and be connected to the latch seat 1 11 and the latch seat 2 12 respectively. When the latch 3 is fully inserted, the pedal base 1 and the pedal cover 2 are hinged through the latch seat 1 11, the latch seat 2 12, the latch 3, and the latch hole 21. This hinged connection allows the pedal cover 2 to rotate or swing relative to the pedal base 1.
