The prostate treatment device further includes a ball head and a clamping mechanism. The treatment head is arranged on the ball head, and the clamping mechanism clamps and fixes the ball head. The angle of the ball head can be adjusted arbitrarily by rotating to achieve the arbitrary adjustment of the angle of the treatment head. After the angle adjustment is completed, the ball head is clamped and fixed by the clamping mechanism, so as to ensure the fixed angle and position of the treatment head.

[0003] However, due to the heavy weight of the treatment head, the ball head is easily driven to rotate relative to the clamping mechanism under the gravity of the treatment head, resulting in unstable clamping of the ball head by the clamping mechanism, and further resulting in unfixed angles and positions of the ball head and the treatment head.

[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a new clamping mechanism and a prostate treatment device to solve the problems of unstable clamping of the clamping mechanism and unfixed angles and positions of the ball head and the treatment head caused by unstable clamping of the clamping mechanism.

[0014] As a preferred solution, one of the first clamping member and the second clamping member is provided with a positioning groove, and the other of them is provided with a positioning protrusion, and the positioning protrusion abuts against the positioning groove.

[0015] As a preferred solution, the positioning groove is an arc-shaped groove, and the positioning protrusion includes an abutting surface, and the abutting surface is an arc surface.

[0016] As a preferred solution, the first clamping member is provided with a locking hole, and the locking member passes through the locking hole to fix the first clamping member and the second clamping member. The locking hole is located between the positioning groove and the first receiving groove, and the distance L1 between the locking hole and the positioning groove is greater than the distance L2 between the locking hole and the center of the spherical head.

[0020] To achieve this purpose, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

[0021] A prostate treatment device, including the clamping mechanism as described above.

[0022] Beneficial effects:

[0023] The present utility model provides a clamping mechanism, which is used to clamp the spherical head of a prostate treatment device, and the treatment head of the prostate treatment device is arranged on the spherical head. The clamping mechanism includes a first clamping member, a second clamping member and a locking member.

In addition, it should be noted that for the sake of description, only the parts related to the present utility model rather than all the structures are shown in the drawings.

In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are only used for distinction in description and have no special meaning.

[0037] As Figure 1 shown, this embodiment provides a prostate treatment device, which includes a clamping mechanism, a spherical head 100, and a treatment head. The treatment head is arranged on the spherical head 100, and the clamping mechanism is used to clamp the spherical head 100. During treatment, the treatment head needs to be inserted into the patient's rectum, and the angle of the treatment head can be arbitrarily adjusted by rotating and adjusting the angle of the spherical head 100. After the angle adjustment is completed, the spherical head 100 is clamped and fixed by the clamping mechanism, so as to ensure the fixed angle and position of the treatment head.

[0038] Specifically, as Figures 1 to 3As shown, the clamping mechanism includes a first clamping member 10, a second clamping member 20 and a locking member. The first clamping member 10 is provided with a first accommodation groove 11 which has a first clamping surface 111. The first clamping surface 111 is matched with the outer peripheral surface of the ball head 100. The second clamping member 20 is provided with a second accommodation groove 21 which has a second clamping surface 211. The second clamping surface 211 is matched with the outer peripheral surface of the ball head 100. The first accommodation groove 11 and the second accommodation groove 21 jointly accommodate the ball head 100. The locking member fixes the first clamping member 10 and the second clamping member 20 together so that the first clamping surface 111 and the second clamping surface 211 jointly clamp the ball head 100. The clamping mechanism of this structure can realize the adjustment of the ball head 100 at any angle. Both the first clamping surface 111 and the second clamping surface 211 are arc surfaces matched with the outer peripheral surface of the ball head 100, so the angle adjustment is smoother and faster. In this embodiment, the locking member can be a widely used and well-locking structure such as a screw-nut assembly, a screw or a bolt-nut assembly.

[0039] As Figure 1 and Figure 3 shown, a part of the ball head 100 extends out of the first accommodation groove 11 and the second accommodation groove 21. Specifically, a transmission shaft is connected to the ball head 100, and the treatment head is arranged on the transmission shaft. If the first accommodation groove 11 and the second accommodation groove 21 completely wrap the ball head 100, when adjusting the angle of the ball head 100, the transmission shaft will interfere with the clamping mechanism, so that the ball head 100 cannot be rotated to adjust the angle. Therefore, a part of the ball head 100 needs to extend out of the first accommodation groove 11 and the second accommodation groove 21 to ensure the rotational adjustment of the ball head 100. It should be noted that the volume of the ball head 100 extending out of the first accommodation groove 11 and the second accommodation groove 21 can be designed according to the actual rotation angle requirements, and this embodiment does not limit this.

[0040] As Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, the first clamping member 10 and the second clamping member 20 are also provided with a third accommodation groove 30. The third accommodation groove 30 is communicated with the first accommodation groove 11 or the second accommodation groove 21. A cavity is formed between the third accommodation groove 30 and the ball head 100, thereby changing the distribution of the acting force between the ball head 100 and the clamping mechanism, and thus increasing the frictional torque of the clamping mechanism on the ball head 100. Under the gravity of the treatment head of the same weight, the ball head 100 is less likely to rotate relative to the clamping mechanism, so that the clamping of the clamping mechanism is stable, and the angles and positions of the ball head 100 and the treatment head are fixed.

[0041] In other embodiments, the third accommodation groove 30 can also be provided only on the first clamping member 10 or the second clamping member 20, which can also play a role in preventing the ball head 100 from rotating.

[0042] As Figure 2As shown, the notch of the third receiving groove 30 is circular, and the notch of the third receiving groove 30 is matched with the outer peripheral surface of the ball head 100. When the notch area is the same, the circular notch has a better effect on changing the distribution of the acting force between the ball head 100 and the clamping mechanism, thereby increasing the frictional torque of the clamping mechanism on the ball head 100 more, so that the clamping effect of the clamping mechanism is better and the ball head 100 is less likely to rotate.

[0043] As Figure 3 shown, the direction of the line connecting the center of the notch and the center of the ball of the ball head 100 is the same as the arrangement direction of the first clamping surface 111 and the second clamping surface 211. When the third receiving groove 30 is opened at this position, it has a better effect on changing the distribution of the acting force between the ball head 100 and the clamping mechanism, thereby increasing the frictional torque of the clamping mechanism on the ball head 100 more, so that the clamping effect of the clamping mechanism is better and the ball head 100 is less likely to rotate.

[0044] As Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, the diameter of the notch is greater than the radius of the ball head 100. When the size of the notch of the third receiving groove 30 meets the above requirements, it has a better effect on changing the distribution of the acting force between the ball head 100 and the clamping mechanism, thereby increasing the frictional torque of the clamping mechanism on the ball head 100 more, so that the clamping effect of the clamping mechanism is better and the ball head 100 is less likely to rotate.

[0045] The following is an explanation of the increased effect of the third receiving groove 30 on the frictional torque of the clamping mechanism on the ball head 100 in combination with calculations:

[0046] Regarding both the first clamping surface 111 and the second clamping surface 211 as hemispherical surfaces, assuming the radius of the ball head 100 is r, assuming the clamping force between the first clamping member 10 and the second clamping member 20 is F, and assuming the friction coefficient between the first clamping member 10 or the second clamping member 20 and the ball head 100 is μ, it is set that the radius of the ball head 100 is 2 (1 / 2) times the radius of the notch of the third receiving groove 30.

[0047] Therefore, when the third receiving groove 30 is not opened, the frictional torque of the clamping mechanism on the ball head 100 is:

[0048] ∫0 2*π (∫0 π / 2 [(2*FrμSin[θ] 2 ) / π]dθ)dφ = πFrμ

[0049] When the third receiving groove 30 is opened, the frictional torque of the clamping mechanism on the ball head 100 is:

[0050] ∫0 2*π (∫ π / 4π / 2 [(4 * FrμSin[θ] 2 ) / π]dθ)dφ = (2 + π)Frμ

[0051] It can be seen from this that when the clamping force is constant, the opening of the third accommodating groove 30 can increase the frictional torque of the clamping mechanism on the ball head 100, so that the ball head 100 is less likely to rotate under the action of the gravity of the treatment head.

[0052] As Figure 1 and Figure 3 shown, an anti-slip layer 101 is provided on the outer peripheral surface of the ball head 100, and the anti-slip layer 101 can also increase the frictional torque of the clamping mechanism on the ball head 100. In this embodiment, the anti-slip layer 101 is a texture with multiple raised channels. In other embodiments, the anti-slip layer 101 can be multiple anti-slip protrusions. In addition, in other embodiments, the anti-slip layer 101 can also be provided on the first clamping surface 111 or the second clamping surface 211, which can also play a role in preventing the ball head 100 from rotating.

[0053] As Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, the first clamping member 10 is provided with a positioning groove 12, and the second clamping member 20 is provided with a positioning protrusion 22, and the positioning protrusion 22 abuts against the positioning groove 12. The cooperation between the positioning protrusion 22 and the positioning groove 12 can ensure the accurate positioning of the first clamping member 10 and the second clamping member 20, so as to ensure the clamping effect on the ball head 100.

[0054] As Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, the positioning groove 12 is an arc-shaped groove, and the positioning protrusion 22 includes an abutting surface 221, and the abutting surface 221 is an arc surface. When the first clamping member 10 and the second clamping member 20 are positioned through the cooperation of the positioning groove 12 and the positioning protrusion 22, first use other tools to clamp the first clamping member 10 and the second clamping member 20 at the positions of the positioning protrusion 22 and the positioning groove 12, so that the positioning protrusion 22 abuts against the positioning groove 12, and then use the locking member to fix the first clamping member 10 and the second clamping member 20. During the process of gradually locking the first clamping member 10 and the second clamping member 20 by the locking member, as the first clamping surface 111 and the second clamping surface 211 gradually approach, the positioning protrusion 22 will rotate relative to the positioning groove 12. Therefore, the cooperation between the arc-shaped abutting surface 221 and the arc-shaped groove can make the rotation smoother, ensure higher clamping efficiency of the first clamping member 10 and the second clamping member 20, and is not easy to damage the structures of the positioning protrusion 22 and the positioning groove 12.

[0055] As Figure 3As shown in the figure, the first clamping member 10 is provided with a locking hole 13. The locking member passes through the locking hole 13 to fix the first clamping member 10 and the second clamping member 20. The locking hole 13 is located between the positioning groove 12 and the first accommodating groove 11. The distance L1 between the locking hole 13 and the positioning groove 12 is greater than the distance L2 between the locking hole 13 and the center of the spherical head 100. In this way, it can be ensured that the spherical head 100 can be clamped with a relatively small locking force.

[0056] Obviously, the above-mentioned embodiments of the present invention are merely examples for clearly illustrating the present invention, rather than limiting the implementation manners of the present invention. For those of ordinary skill in the art, various obvious changes, re-adjustments and substitutions can be made without departing from the protection scope of the present invention. It is not necessary and impossible to enumerate all the implementation manners here. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the claims of the present invention.
