DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0031] In order to make the technical means and purposes of the utility model easy to understand, the utility model is further described below in combination with specific embodiments, a kind of adjustable bending sheath for endoscopy, such as Figure 1As shown, it includes a handle 1, a catheter 2, a bendable catheter head 3 and a direction adjustment knob 4. The handle 1 is connected to the direction adjustment knob 4, and the direction adjustment knob 4 is connected to the catheter 2 through a rotating device inside the handle 1. The catheter 2 is connected to the bendable catheter head 3.
[0032] Among them, such as Figures 2-4 As shown, the rotating device includes a rotating nut 13, a gear driving shaft 11, a gear driven shaft 12 and a gear 18. The direction adjustment knob 4 is connected to the rotating nut 13, and the rotating nut 13 is connected to the gear driving shaft 11 and the gear driven shaft 12. A gear 18 is arranged between the gear driving shaft 11 and the gear driven shaft 12. The gear driving shaft 11 and the gear driven shaft 12 are connected to the catheter 2. The rotating device is arranged inside the handle housing 17, and the direction adjustment knob 4 is threadedly connected to the handle housing 17 through a spring 16.
[0033] The direction adjustment knob 4 and the rotating nut 13 are axially fixedly connected via a pin 14 .
[0034] Wherein, a limiting slot 15 is provided on the rotating nut 13 .
[0035] Among them, such as Figure 6 As shown, the catheter body 21 of the catheter 2 is provided with an inner layer catheter 28, a middle layer catheter 27, and an outer layer catheter 29 from the inside to the outside, and a first side hole channel 25 and a second side hole channel 26 are provided in the inner layer catheter 28.
[0036] Among them, such as Figure 7 As shown, the gear driving shaft 11 is connected to the steel wire 22 through a first baffle 23, and the steel wire 22 passes through the first side hole channel 25 and is connected to the bendable catheter head 3 through another first baffle 23;
[0037] The gear driven shaft 12 is connected to the steel wire 22 through a second baffle 24 . The steel wire 22 passes through the second side hole channel 26 and is connected to the bendable catheter head 3 through another second baffle 24 .
[0038] Among them, such as Figure 5 、 Figures 8-9 As shown, the bendable catheter head 3 includes a head 31 and an outer hose 32. The outer hose 32 is connected to the head 31. The catheter inside the outer hose 32 is connected to the inner catheter 28 and the middle catheter 27 of the catheter 2. The steel wire 22 passes through the first side hole channel 25 inside the outer hose 32 and is welded to the head 31 through another first baffle 23. The steel wire 22 passes through the second side hole channel 26 inside the outer hose 32 and is welded to the head 31 through another second baffle 24.
[0039] The inner layer conduit 28 and the outer layer conduit 29 are made of high polymer material, and the middle layer conduit 27 is a stainless steel woven mesh tube.
[0040] The head 31 is made of stainless steel material.
[0041] Function description: by rotating the direction adjusting knob 4, the direction of the bendable conduit head 3 can be adjusted, as follows:
[0042] The direction adjusting knob 4 and the rotating nut 13 are axially fixed by the pin 14, and the direction adjusting knob 4 is limited in radial movement by the clamping groove 15 structure. The direction adjusting knob 4 and the rotating nut 13 can rotate together.
[0043] By the handle spring 16 structure, the direction adjusting knob 4 and the handle shell 17 can maintain a certain friction force, which can prevent the direction adjusting knob 4 from easily bouncing back after rotating to a certain angle.
[0044] The rotating nut 13 and the gear driving shaft 11 are threadedly connected. When the direction adjusting knob 4 drives the rotating nut 13 to rotate forward or backward, the rotating nut 13 drives the gear driving shaft 11 to move forward or backward, and the gear driving shaft 11 drives the gear 18 to rotate. The axis of the gear 18 does not change relative to the position of the shell. The gear 18 drives the gear driven shaft 12 to move forward or backward. In this way, the gear driving shaft 11 and the gear driven shaft 12 can move in opposite directions by the same displacement.
[0045] The conduit structure is shown in Figure 6 The inner layer conduit 28 has two side hole channels, i.e., a first side hole channel 25 and a second side hole channel 26. The inner layer conduit 28 is made of high polymer material, the middle layer conduit 27 is a stainless steel woven mesh tube, and the outer layer conduit 29 is made of high polymer material.
[0046] The bendable conduit head 3 also has a three-layer structure. The head 31 is connected and fixed with the first baffle 23 and the second baffle 24, and the head 31 is also made of stainless steel material. The head 31 can be connected with the first baffle 23 and the second baffle 24 by welding. The middle layer and the inner layer are connected with the entire conduit, and the outer layer tube is a soft tube. In this way, when the first baffle 23 and the second baffle 24 are stretched, the mesh tube inside the bendable conduit head 3 can be compressed or stretched.
[0047] The first baffle 23 and the second baffle 24 are respectively fixed at the rear ends of the gear driving shaft 11 and the gear driven shaft 12. When the gear driving shaft 11 and the gear driven shaft 12 move relatively, the first baffle 23 and the second baffle 24 can be pulled to realize the function of bending the bendable conduit head 3.
[0048] The above merely describes a preferred embodiment of the present application, and the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto, and any skilled person in the art, according to the technical scheme and concept of the present application, can make equivalent substitutions or changes within the technical range disclosed by the present application, which should be encompassed in the protection scope of the present application.
