Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a visual electrocautery, belonging to the technical field of medical devices. Background Art

[0002] An electrocautery is a medical device commonly used in surgical operations. It cuts tissues or coagulates blood vessels through the heat energy generated by an electric current to achieve the purpose of hemostasis or cutting. The electrocautery has the advantages of high efficiency, speed, precision, etc. in operations, making it an indispensable tool in modern surgical operations. A visual electrocautery is a medical device that combines traditional electrocautery and modern imaging technology. It integrates a high-definition camera and a lighting system on the basis of the traditional electrocautery, enabling surgeons to see the situation of the surgical area in real time and clearly when using the electrocautery for operations, thereby improving the accuracy and safety of the operation. For example, a high-frequency electrocautery with wireless video recording, lighting, and smoking functions disclosed in Chinese patent document CN219184068U. At present, there are some limitations in the actual application of the visual electrocautery. Especially when integrating the lighting and imaging devices on the handle, when the knife rod is pulled out or retracted by different lengths on the handle for use, the lighting and imaging devices may not be able to adjust adaptively. This defect in design may bring about limited vision. When the knife rod extends or retracts, the relative positions of the camera and lighting to the tip of the knife will change, resulting in the vision may become narrow or blurred, affecting the visibility of the surgical area and increasing the operation difficulty. In addition, there may also be insufficient lighting. The position of the lighting device is fixed. When the length of the knife rod changes, the lighting range may not be able to cover the surgical area. Especially during the operation on deep tissues, insufficient lighting will affect the doctor's line of sight and operation accuracy. Due to the limitations of vision and lighting, surgeons may need to frequently adjust the position or angle of the electrocautery during the operation, increasing the complexity of the operation and the operation time, and posing a potential danger to the safety of patients. Summary of the Utility Model

[0003] Therefore, the purpose of the utility model is to provide a visual electrocautery in which the positions of the lighting and imaging devices can be adjusted along with the telescopic movement of the knife rod.

[0004] To achieve the above purpose, a visual electrocautery of the utility model includes a handle, a knife rod, a lighting and imaging device, and a wiring assembly; the handle includes an inner cylinder that can be pulled out and an outer cylinder sleeved outside the inner cylinder; the knife rod is inserted into the inner cylinder and can be pulled out and moved inside the inner cylinder; the lighting and imaging device includes a mounting rod and a lighting lamp and a camera located at the end of the mounting rod. An installation hole parallel to its axis is also provided on the inner cylinder. The mounting rod is inserted into the installation hole and can be pulled out and moved inside the installation hole; the wiring assembly is connected to the lighting and imaging device and the knife rod; the inner cylinder and the outer cylinder, the knife rod and the inner cylinder, and the mounting rod and the inner cylinder are all in frictional fit.

[0005] A limiting structure is arranged between the inner cylinder and the outer cylinder for limiting the pulling-out stroke of the inner cylinder in the outer cylinder.

[0006] The limiting structure includes a limiting protrusion arranged on the outer side wall of the inner cylinder and a limiting groove arranged on the inner side wall of the outer cylinder. The limiting groove is a straight groove and extends along the axial direction of the outer cylinder, and the limiting protrusion is located in the limiting groove.

[0007] A first shoulder portion is arranged on the outer side wall of the inner cylinder part. The first shoulder portion divides the inner cylinder part into two parts, namely an insertion part on the proximal side and an extension part on the distal side. The outer diameter of the insertion part is smaller than that of the extension part, and the insertion part is inserted into the outer cylinder.

[0008] The mounting hole is opened on the extension part.

[0009] An anti - detachment convex ring is arranged at one end of the mounting rod far away from the illuminating lamp and the camera. A second shoulder portion is arranged on the inner side wall of the mounting hole. The second shoulder portion divides the mounting hole into two parts, namely a first hole part on the proximal side and a second hole part on the distal side. The second shoulder portion can block the anti - detachment convex ring, and the mounting rod is in frictional fit with the inner side wall of the second hole part.

[0010] A stop block is further arranged inside the outer cylinder near the proximal side.

[0011] The wiring assembly further includes a first plug and a second plug for respectively connecting to the cutter bar and the lighting and imaging device through wires.

[0012] With the above - mentioned technical solution, compared with the prior art, the visual electric knife of the present utility model has the following beneficial effects: The illuminating lamp and the camera are not integrated on the handle, but are arranged at the end of the mounting rod. The mounting rod is inserted into the mounting hole opened on the inner cylinder, so that it can be pulled outwards in the mounting hole to adjust the positions of the illuminating lamp and the camera. During use, the position of the cutter head can be adjusted by pulling the inner cylinder outwards in the outer cylinder and pulling the cutter bar outwards in the inner cylinder. After the adjustment is in place, the positions of the illuminating lamp and the camera can be adjusted by pulling the mounting rod. Thus, it overcomes the defect caused by the inability to adaptively adjust the lighting and imaging devices in the prior art, is beneficial to improving the visibility of the surgical area, avoids insufficient lighting caused by a long lighting distance, and provides a better visual field range for doctors.
