[0023] Two positioning rings 9 are fixed horizontally in the housing 2. The two positioning rings 9 are located on the inner tube wall of the lower half of the housing 2. An inner tube 10 is independently installed in the housing 2 and is located between the two positioning rings 9. The two positioning rings 9 can block and position the inner tube 10, so that the inner tube 10 rotates at a fixed position in the housing 2.
[0024] To further explain, Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, in this embodiment, the shell 2 is preferably provided with a through hole communicating with the inside and outside on the side wall, and the through hole is used to expose a part of the tube wall of the inner tube 10, so that the doctor's fingers can contact the tube wall of the inner tube 10 and rotate the inner tube 10 by the fingers; a plurality of anti-slip grooves are provided on the inner tube 10 along the circumferential direction, and the anti-slip grooves are used to increase the friction between the inner tube 10 and the fingers, so that the fingers can more easily rotate the inner tube 10 and prevent slipping between the fingers and the inner tube 10; of course, a loose sealing film can also be fixed at the through hole. After the loose sealing film seals the through hole, it is convenient to disinfect the surface of the shell 2 and will not affect the rotation of the inner tube 10 by the fingers; this scheme as a whole constitutes a rotating assembly for rotating the inner tube 10; of course, the rotating assembly can also use gears, and a mounting hole communicating with the inside and outside is provided on the shell 2, and the gear can be rotatably installed in the mounting hole, and a tooth groove for engaging with the gear is provided on the outer tube wall of the inner tube 10 along the circumferential direction.
[0025] To further explain, Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the present embodiment preferably includes a power supply 3, which is installed in the shell 2, and a cross bar 11 is fixed horizontally in the inner tube 10, the cross bar 11 is located above the two light shielding plates 18, and a number of lighting lamps electrically connected to the power supply 3 are fixed on the cross bar 11; in the present embodiment, the cross bar 11 is aligned with the center between the two light shielding plates 18, and three lighting lamps are evenly distributed below the cross bar 11, so that the three lighting lamps can illuminate the patient's eyes below after being connected to the power supply 3; in the present embodiment, the power supply 3 is a battery, and the power supply 3 can be a rechargeable lithium battery; the present solution as a whole constitutes a lighting assembly for illuminating the eyes; of course, the lighting assembly can also use an external power supply, and a cross bar 11 is fixed horizontally in the inner tube 10, the cross bar 11 is located above the two light shielding plates 18, and a number of lighting lamps are fixed on the cross bar 11, and all lighting lamps are connected to the external power supply through wires.
[0026] Two mirror-aligned mounting blocks 19 are fixed on the inner wall of the inner tube 10. The two mounting blocks 19 are mirror-symmetrical and are located on the inner tube wall of the inner tube 10 in the front and rear directions respectively.
[0027] The two mounting blocks 19 are provided with guide grooves in an inverted "V" shape, and the inclined sections of the two guide grooves are independently engaged with shading plates 18 for blocking the illumination light; the ends of the two shading plates 18 are respectively engaged in the guide grooves of the inclined sections of the two mounting blocks 19, such as Figure 2 As shown, the two blocks can be arranged in an inclined manner, such as Figure 1As shown, the guide grooves guide the movement direction of the two light shielding plates 18, allowing the two light shielding plates 18 to move in an inclined direction. When the two light shielding plates 18 are closed, they are combined to form an inverted V-shape. When the two light shielding plates 18 are opened, the light emitted by the illumination lamp can pass through the gap between the two light shielding plates 18 and illuminate the eyeball. By adjusting the distance between the two light shielding plates 18, the illumination range of the illumination lamp can be adjusted, allowing the doctor to adjust the field of view according to the required clarity and the size of the surgical area, which helps the doctor to observe the surgical site more accurately.
[0028] Two mirror-symmetrical light shields 17 are fixed horizontally in the inner tube 10. The two light shields 17 are located below two light shielding plates 18 respectively. When the two light shielding plates 18 move to open and close, a gap is formed between them and the inner tube wall, and the gap changes with the movement of the two light shielding plates 18, so that the light of the lighting lamp will leak out from the gap and shine on the patient's eyeball, such as Figure 1 As shown, the two light-blocking plates 17 can block the light leaking from the gap, preventing the leaked light from irradiating outside the operating area and preventing the generated excess halo from affecting the doctor;
[0029] To further explain, Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the present embodiment preferably includes two bevel gears 4 that mesh with each other, and two shading plates 18 are fixed with tension springs 13, and the other ends of the two tension springs 13 are fixed to the inner wall of the inner tube 10; when the two tension springs 13 are in the initial state, the two shading plates 18 are in a fully open state; a first rotating shaft 5 that can rotate freely is horizontally arranged in the shell 2, and two insertion holes are opened on the inner tube wall of the shell 2, and the two ends of the first rotating shaft 5 are respectively installed in the two insertion holes, so that the first rotating shaft 5 can rotate freely in a horizontal shape; a pull rope 20 is wound around the first rotating shaft 5, and one end of the pull rope 20 has two forked lines, and the two forked lines The forked wires are fixed on the two visors 18 respectively, and the lengths of the two forked wires are connected, so that when the pull rope 20 pulls the two visors 18, the two can move synchronously; a mounting plate 7 is fixed horizontally on the inner wall of the inner tube 10, and a second rotating shaft 6 that can rotate freely is vertically passed through the mounting plate 7. The two bevel gears 4 are respectively mounted on the first rotating shaft 5 and the second rotating shaft 6, and the second rotating shaft 6 is mounted on the rotating wheel 8. A through hole for exposing the rotating wheel 8 is opened on the shell 2, and the doctor's finger can pass through the through hole and fit into the rotating wheel 8; a card block 12 is clamped between the hole wall of the perforation and the rotating wheel 8, and the card block 12 is made of rubber, latex The cam 8 is made of a material such as glue or silicone, and when it is engaged between the hole wall of the perforation and the rotating wheel 8, it can increase the resistance of the rotating wheel 8 when it rotates, and can lock the rotating wheel 8; of course, a loose sealing film can also be fixed at the perforation. After the loose sealing film seals the perforation, it is convenient to disinfect the surface of the shell 2 and will not affect the rotation of the rotating wheel 8 by the fingers; this solution as a whole constitutes a driving assembly for driving the two visors 18 to move along the guide groove; when in use, the rotating wheel 8 is rotated, so that the rotating wheel 8 drives one of the bevel gears 4 to rotate through the second rotating shaft 6, and the bevel gear 4 drives the other bevel gear 4 to rotate, The first rotating shaft 5 is driven to rotate by the bevel gear 4. The first rotating shaft 5 will reel in the drawstring 20 when rotating, so that the drawstring 20 pulls the two light shielding plates 18 upward, and the two light shielding plates 18 are tilted upward and closed along the guide groove. When the rotating wheel 8 rotates in the opposite direction, the first rotating shaft 5 will release the drawstring 20, and the two tension springs 13 will shrink and pull the two light shielding plates 18 to reset and open. Therefore, by adjusting the distance between the two light shielding plates 18, the illumination range of the lighting can be adjusted, allowing the doctor to adjust according to the required clarity and the size of the field of view of the surgical area, which helps the doctor to observe the surgical site more accurately.
[0030] A sealing plate 16 made of a transparent material is horizontally fixed at the lower end of the shell 2 for protecting the interior. In this embodiment, the sealing plate 16 is made of acrylic, PC, glass and other materials. It is mainly used to seal and protect the interior of the shell 2 to prevent foreign objects from entering the interior and damaging the internal structure. The transparent sealing plate 16 can easily transmit light.
[0031] During actual use, the doctor or assistant extends the pressure rod 14 toward the patient's eyeball, and the boss 15 at the bottom of the pressure rod 14 fits and presses on the sclera. The light emitted by the lighting lamp in the inner tube 10 shines on the eyeball, thereby providing additional lighting to the surgical area while pressing the eyeball. There is no need to use different devices, which reduces the space occupied in the eye area and allows the doctor and assistant to be more flexible during the operation, thereby increasing the success rate of the operation. When illuminating the surgical area and pressing the eyeball, the rotating wheel 8 can be rotated to drive one of the bevel gears 4 to rotate through the second rotating shaft 6, such as Figure 1 As shown, the two bevel gears 4 drive the first rotating shaft 5 to rotate through the mutual meshing relationship. When the first rotating shaft 5 rotates, the pull rope 20 will be reeled in, so that the pull rope 20 will pull the two visors 18 upward, and the two visors 18 will move upward and close along the guide groove. When the rotating wheel 8 rotates in the opposite direction, the first rotating shaft 5 will release the pull rope 20, and the two tension springs 13 will shrink and pull the two visors 18 to reset and open. Therefore, by adjusting the distance between the two visors 18, the illumination range of the lighting lamp can be adjusted, allowing the doctor to adjust the field of view according to the required clarity and the size of the surgical area, which helps the doctor to observe the surgical site more accurately; the doctor or assistant rotates the inner tube 10 with his fingers. After the inner tube 10 is rotated, the area illuminated by the two visors 18 through which the lighting lamp transmits light will change together. Therefore, by rotating the inner tube 10, the doctor or assistant can adjust the illumination area at any time according to the surgical needs while pressing the eyeball.
