[0020] 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.

[0021] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3The utility model provides an embodiment: a hysteroscope, including a mirror channel 1, an air bag 2 is fixedly connected to the external front side of the mirror channel 1, the existence of the air bag 2 helps to fix the position of the hysteroscope by slightly inflating after dilating the cervix, this design can reduce the movement of the lens during operation, ensure that the doctor can obtain clear and stable images, so as to diagnose and treat more accurately, the air bag 2 is fixedly connected to the outside of the trachea 3, the external front side of the mirror channel 1 is provided with a hidden groove 4, the existence of the hidden groove 4 is used to hide the cutting wire 15, so that the doctor can conveniently use these tools during operation without interfering with the field of view or position of the hysteroscope, the inside of the mirror channel 1 is fixedly connected with a water inlet pipe 5, and the inside of the mirror channel 1 is fixedly connected with a water outlet pipe 6, which is used to introduce and discharge flushing fluid to clean and flush the uterine cavity to ensure that the observation area is clearly visible. This is particularly important for removing blood or secretions during the inspection process to ensure that the doctor can clearly observe the situation inside the uterus. The interior of the mirror channel 1 is fixedly connected with a protective tube 7, and the outer front side of the protective tube 7 is fixedly connected with a ring-shaped light 8. The interior of the ring-shaped light 8 is fixedly connected with a miniature camera 9 to ensure that the doctor can clearly observe the details inside the uterus. The presence of the miniature camera 9 allows the doctor to observe the internal situation in real time, and record or take photos for recording and further analysis when necessary. The interior of the protective tube 7 is provided with a connecting component, which includes a connecting line 10 and a connecting line 2 11. The connecting line 10 and the connecting line 2 11 are arranged inside the protective tube 7. The outer side of the connecting line 10 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the ring-shaped light 8, and the outer side of the connecting line 2 11 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the miniature camera 9, which is used to connect the ring-shaped light 8 and the miniature camera 9 to the protective tube 7 and transmit power and signals. Such a design can make the components of the hysteroscope more closely connected, while reducing the clutter of cables, ensuring the stability and reliability of the equipment.

[0022] Reference Figure 3 :An insulating sleeve 12 is slidably connected inside the mirror channel 1, a positive electrode 13 is fixedly connected inside the insulating sleeve 12, a negative electrode 14 is fixedly connected inside the insulating sleeve 12, and a cutting wire 15 is arranged between the positive electrode 13 and the negative electrode 14 for electrocoagulation surgery or other electrophysiological operations. By applying electric current, the doctor can achieve hemostasis, cutting or welding of tissues, thereby performing treatment. The presence of the cutting wire 15 can ensure that the current flows along the expected path, thereby controlling the accuracy and safety during the operation. One end of the cutting wire 15 is fixedly connected to the outer front side of the positive electrode 13, and the other end of the cutting wire 15 is fixedly connected to the outer front side of the negative electrode 14.

[0023] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2:The outside of the mirror channel 1 is fixedly connected with a fixing ring 16, and the bottom of the fixing ring 16 is fixedly connected with a mirror handle 17. The presence of the fixing ring 16 and the mirror handle 17 allows the doctor to firmly hold and operate the hysteroscope, ensuring its stability and accuracy during the operation. This is especially important for operating in a narrow or curved channel to ensure that the doctor can accurately position and operate the lens. The top of the insulating sleeve 12 is fixedly connected with a control rod 18, which is used to adjust the position or angle of the insulating sleeve 12 and the electrode to meet the needs of different surgical operations. This design can make the doctor more flexible during the operation, thereby improving the accuracy and success rate of the operation.

[0024] Compared with some devices in the prior art, the above content is that after the dilator expands the patient's interior, the device is inserted into the patient's body, and the ring light 8 and the micro camera 9 are started at the same time to ensure the position of the device and the protection of the patient. When it reaches the appropriate position, the trachea 3 is ventilated through an external gas filling mechanism, so that the trachea 3 slightly inflates the airbag 2, so that the flesh on the inner wall of the patient cannot interfere with the lens mechanism.

[0025] Working principle: First, after the vaginal dilator is used to dilate the cervix, the doctor inserts the hysteroscope into the patient's body. During this process, the ring light 8 and the micro camera 9 will be activated to ensure the accurate position of the device and protect the patient from accidental injury. Once the hysteroscope reaches the desired position, the external gas filling mechanism ventilates the air bag 2 through the trachea 3 and slightly inflates the air bag 2. This inflation process helps to stabilize the position of the hysteroscope and prevent it from moving during operation, thereby ensuring that the doctor can obtain a clear and stable image. At the same time, the presence of the hidden groove 4 allows the doctor to easily hide the cutting wire 15 or other tools without interfering with the field of view or position of the hysteroscope. This helps to keep the operating area tidy and ensure that the doctor can operate freely. The water inlet pipe 5 and the water outlet pipe 6 are used to introduce and discharge the flushing fluid to clean and flush the uterine cavity to ensure that the observation area is clearly visible. This is particularly important for removing blood or secretions to ensure that the doctor can clearly observe the situation inside the uterus. The protective tube 7 is connected with a ring light 8 and a micro camera 9 to ensure that the doctor can clearly observe the details inside the uterus. The presence of the micro camera 9 allows the doctor to observe the internal situation in real time and record or take photos for record and further analysis when necessary. In certain cases, such as electrocoagulation surgery or other electrophysiological operations, the positive electrode 13 and the negative electrode 14 connected inside the insulating sleeve 12 can be used to apply current to achieve hemostasis, cutting or welding tissue. Finally, the presence of the fixing ring 16 and the handle 17 allows the doctor to firmly hold and operate the hysteroscope to ensure its stability and accuracy during the operation. The setting of the control rod 18 enables the doctor to adjust the position or angle of the insulating sleeve 12 and the electrode to meet the needs of different surgical operations and improve the flexibility and success rate of the operation.

[0026] Finally, it should be noted that the above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features therein. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
