[0047] In an embodiment of the present utility model, the foot controller includes:

[0048] A base 100 having a top surface, a bottom surface, and a side surface, and a receiving space 111 is formed by enclosing the top surface, the bottom surface, and the side surface;

[0049] A pedal assembly 200 disposed on the top surface of the base 100 and facing away from the receiving space 111;

[0050] A main control board 300 fixed in the receiving space 111 and electrically connected to the pedal assembly 200; and

[0051] A bottom plate 400 connected to the bottom of the base 100 and detachable relative to the base 100 to open or close the receiving space 111.

[0052] The foot controller in the technical solution of the present utility model includes a base 100, a pedal assembly 200, a main control board 300, and a bottom plate 400. A receiving space 111 is formed by enclosing the top surface, the bottom surface, and the side surface. The pedal assembly 200 is disposed on the top surface of the base 100, the main control board 300 is fixed inside the receiving space 111, and the bottom plate 400 and the base 100 are detachably connected. By disassembling and assembling the bottom plate 400, the receiving space 111 can be opened or closed. When the receiving space 111 is opened, it is convenient to repair and replace the main control board 300 in the receiving space 111. There is no need to replace the entire foot controller due to the failure of the main control board 300, reducing the use cost of the foot controller; when the receiving space 111 is closed, the base 100 and the bottom plate 400 play a role in protecting the main control board 300, preventing the main control board 300 from being polluted by dust, water, etc., extending the service life of the main control board 300, and further extending the service life of the foot controller.

[0053] In an embodiment, the foot controller further includes a first locking member 500, and the bottom plate 400 and the base 100 are detachably connected by the first locking member 500.

[0054] Refer to Figure 1 , in the embodiment of the present utility model, the bottom plate 400 and the base 100 are detachably connected by the first locking member 500. The first locking member 500 can be a screw or a bolt or a buckle, etc., with a simple structure and low manufacturing cost.

[0055] In an embodiment, the foot controller further includes an anti-slip member 600, and the anti-slip member 600 is fixed to a side of the bottom plate 400 facing away from the base 100.

[0056] Refer to Figure 1, in an embodiment of the present utility model, an anti-slip member 600 is provided at the bottom of the bottom plate 400, which increases the friction between the foot pedal controller and the ground, reduces the sliding of the foot pedal controller on the ground, improves the stability of the foot pedal controller on the ground, thus facilitating the user's operation, enhancing the safety during use, and reducing misoperations caused by position movement. Compared with the solution of fixing the foot pedal controller to the ground, the foot pedal controller in this embodiment can be moved freely, which is convenient for transferring the surgical equipment to different surgical environments. Among them, the anti-slip member 600 can be made of materials with a relatively large coefficient of friction with the ground, such as rubber or polyurethane, and only needs to meet the functional requirements, and is not limited here. The anti-slip member 600 and the bottom plate 400 can be connected by various methods such as welding, bonding or screw attachment.

[0057] In one embodiment, the anti-slip member 600 is provided with an avoidance hole 610, and the avoidance hole 610 is disposed opposite to the first locking member 500 to expose the first locking member 500; and / or,

[0058] The anti-slip member 600 is adhesively fixed to the bottom plate 400.

[0059] Referring to Figure 1 , in an embodiment of the present utility model, an avoidance hole 610 is provided on the anti-slip member 600, and the first locking member 500 is exposed through the avoidance hole 610, so as to facilitate the disassembly and assembly of the first locking member 500 and reduce the operation steps of the user during the disassembly and assembly of the bottom plate 400 and the base 100.

[0060] In an embodiment of the present utility model, the anti-slip member 600 and the bottom plate 400 are adhesively fixed, which is firmly fixed, reduces the possibility of the anti-slip member 600 falling off from the bottom plate 400, and the bonding method has low processing difficulty and low cost, which is beneficial to improving the production efficiency of the foot pedal controller and reducing the manufacturing cost of the foot pedal controller.

[0061] In one embodiment, the foot pedal controller further includes a second locking member 700, and the pedal assembly 200 and the base 100 are detachably connected through the second locking member 700.

[0062] Referring to Figures 2 to 4 , in an embodiment of the present utility model, the pedal assembly 200 and the base 100 are detachably connected through the second locking member 700, so as to facilitate the repair and replacement of the pedal assembly 200 and further reduce the use cost of the foot pedal controller. The second locking member 700 can be a screw or a bolt or a buckle, etc., with a simple structure and low manufacturing cost. Through the detachable connection between the bottom plate 400 and the base 100, there are more optional types of the second locking member 700 and it is easy to set, so that the detachable connection between the pedal assembly 200 and the base 100 is easily achieved.

[0063] In one embodiment, the second locking member 700 has opposite operating ends and connecting ends. The operating end is disposed within the receiving space 111, and the connecting end passes through the base 100 and is connected to the pedal assembly 200.

[0064] Referring to Figure 2 , in the embodiment of the present utility model, the second locking member 700 has opposite operating ends and connecting ends. The connecting end connects the base 100 and the pedal assembly 200, and the operating end is for the user to operate to achieve the disassembly and assembly of the second locking member 700. Among them, the operating end of the second locking member 700 is disposed in the receiving space 111. When the bottom plate 400 closes the receiving space 111, the base 100 and the bottom plate 400 can also protect the operating end. For example: if the second locking member 700 is a screw, the head of the screw is located inside the receiving space 111, reducing the possibility of problems such as rust and corrosion of the head, ensuring that the second locking member 700 can be disassembled, and thus ensuring that the pedal assembly 200 and the base 100 can be disassembled; on the other hand, the operating end being located in the receiving space 111 can also prevent the second locking member 700 from being lost. Even if the second locking member 700 loosens and falls off, it will fall into the receiving space 111, thereby preventing the second locking member 700 from being lost and facilitating the maintenance of the foot controller.

[0065] In one embodiment, the foot controller further includes a cable assembly 800. One end of the cable assembly 800 is electrically connected to the main control board 300, and the other end passes out from the side of the base 100.

The bottom plate 400 and the base 100 are detachably connected, which also facilitates the detection and maintenance of the connection between the cable assembly 800 and the main control board 300.

[0067] In one embodiment, the foot controller further includes a fixing member 900. The fixing member 900 is sleeved outside the cable assembly 800 and is detachably connected to the inner wall of the receiving space 111 to fix the cable assembly 800.

[0068] Referring to Figure 2 and Figure 4, in an embodiment of the present utility model, the foot controller further includes a fixing member 900. One end of the fixing member 900 is sleeved outside the cable assembly 800, and the other end of the fixing member 900 is fixed to the inner wall of the receiving space 111 by means of screwing or clamping, etc., so that the cable assembly 800 is fixed inside the receiving space 111, avoiding the relative movement of the cable assembly 800 with respect to the base 100, thereby preventing the pulling of the cable assembly 800 from causing the movement of the main control board 300 or the separation of the cable assembly 800 from the main control board 300, and reducing the possibility of control failure of the foot controller.

[0069] In one embodiment, the base 100 has a reinforcing structure 120. The reinforcing structure 120 is disposed in the receiving space 111. One end of the reinforcing structure 120 abuts against one side of the top surface of the base 100 facing the receiving space 111, and the other end abuts against the bottom plate 400.

[0070] Referring to Figure 1 , in an embodiment of the present utility model, the base 100 has a reinforcing structure 120. The reinforcing structure 120 is arranged inside the receiving space 111. One end of the reinforcing structure 120 abuts against one side of the top surface of the base 100 facing the receiving space 111, that is, against the inner wall of the top of the receiving space 111. The other end of the reinforcing structure 120 abuts against the bottom plate 400, thereby strengthening the strength of the entire base 100, enabling the base 100 to provide good support for the pedal assembly 200, and reducing the possibility of deformation of the base 100 when the user steps on the pedal assembly 200.

[0071] In one embodiment, the reinforcing structure 120 is provided with an installation groove, and the main control board 300 is inserted into the installation groove for fixation.

[0072] In another embodiment, the pedal assembly is at least two. The bases corresponding to each pedal assembly are all provided with a reinforcing structure 120. There is a gap between adjacent two reinforcing structures 120, and the gap forms the above-mentioned installation groove. The main control board 300 is fixed in at least one installation groove. Among them, the reinforcing structure 120 can be a plurality of intersecting reinforcing ribs 121.

[0073] In one embodiment, the top surface of the base 100 is provided with a pedal receiving groove 112. The pedal receiving groove 112 is arranged opposite to the reinforcing structure 120, and the pedal assembly 200 is detachably arranged in the pedal receiving groove 112.

[0074] Referring to Figure 2 , in an embodiment of the present utility model, the reinforcing structure 120 is provided with an installation groove, and the main control board 300 is inserted and fixed in the installation groove. The structure is simple, easy to implement, and convenient for disassembling and assembling the main control board 300.

On the one hand, it makes the structure of the entire foot controller more compact and reduces the space occupied by the foot controller; on the other hand, the inner wall of the pedal receiving groove 112 can play a certain protective role for the pedal assembly 200, reducing the possibility of foreign objects entering the pedal assembly 200, thereby reducing the possibility of damage to the pedal assembly 200 and extending the service life of the foot controller. Specifically in this embodiment, the foot controller includes two pedal assemblies 200, and the main control board 300 and the cable assembly 800 are located between the two pedal assemblies 200, which is convenient for arranging the circuits between the main control board 300 and the two pedal assemblies 200, and also ensures the symmetry of the entire foot controller and improves the stability of the foot controller placed on the ground. In addition, the pedal assembly 200 can also be three, and the main control board can be two, and the two main control boards are arranged between two adjacent pedal assemblies; of course, the main control board can also be one, and is arranged between one of the adjacent pedal assemblies.

[0076] Referring to Figure 2 , in an embodiment of the present utility model, the reinforcing structure 120 includes a plurality of intersecting reinforcing ribs 121, which are easy to form, use less material, reduce the manufacturing cost of the base 100, and thus reduce the manufacturing cost of the foot controller.

[0077] Generally speaking, through the detachable connection between the bottom plate 400 and the base 100, it is convenient for the maintenance and replacement of the main control board 300, the cable assembly 800, and the pedal assembly 200. When the main control board 300, the cable assembly 800, and the pedal assembly 200 fail, it is not necessary to completely replace the entire foot controller, reducing the use cost of the foot controller.
