[0034] Referring to Figures 1 to 3 An endoscope connector 100 is provided in an embodiment of the present application, which comprises a housing structure, a button 2, a buckle 3 and an elastic member 5. Wherein:
[0035] The housing structure is formed with a mounting cavity 1a, and the housing structure is provided with a button hole 111 and a buckle hole 132, both of which are in communication with the mounting cavity 1a. The button 2 is slidably mounted in the mounting cavity 1a, and one end of the button 2 can pass through the button hole 111 out of the mounting cavity 1a to form a driving end 21. The buckle 3 is rotatably mounted in the mounting cavity 1a, one end of the buckle 3 is connected to the end of the button 2 away from the driving end 21, the other end of the buckle 3 passes through the buckle hole 132 out of the mounting cavity 1a to form a clamping end 31, the clamping end 31 is provided with a first clamping part 32, the first clamping part 32 is used for clamping and matching with the connecting socket; the buckle 3 is provided with a rotating part 33 rotatably connected with the side wall of the mounting cavity 1a, and the buckle 3 can be rotated around the rotating part 33 under the driving of the button 2.
[0036] The above-mentioned endoscope connector 100, the button 2 is slidably mounted in the mounting cavity 1a, the buckle 3 is rotatably mounted in the mounting cavity 1a, the button 2 is connected with the buckle 3, the buckle 3 is provided with a rotating part 33 rotatably connected with the shell structure, which enables the buckle 3 to rotate around the rotating part 33 in a predetermined direction under the drive of the button 2. Therefore, when the endoscope connector 100 is inserted into the connection socket, the button 2 can be pressed first to rotate the buckle 3, and then the button 2 is released after the endoscope connector 100 is inserted into the connection socket, so that the first clamping part 32 on the buckle 3 can be quickly clamped with the connection socket, thereby realizing the quick insertion of the endoscope connector 100 and the connection socket. Wherein, due to the clamping cooperation of the first clamping part 32 and the connection socket, when the endoscope connector 100 is inserted into the connection socket, only the button 2 can be pressed to release the clamping between the first clamping part 32 and the connection socket, and then the endoscope connector 100 can be pulled out, and the endoscope connector 100 and the connection socket are disconnected, so that the endoscope connector 100 will not be loose and fall off in the connection of the endoscope connector 100 and the connection socket, thereby effectively ensuring the reliability and stability of the connection between the endoscope connector 100 and the connection socket, and ensuring the reliability of the connection between the endoscope and the host. Since the endoscope connector 100 can be quickly pulled out by driving the button 2, the endoscope connector 100 has the characteristics of quick pull-out. As can be seen, the endoscope connector 100 can quickly connect and disconnect the connection socket, and can ensure the reliability of the connection with the connection socket.
[0037] Illustratively, the connection socket can be provided with a second clamping part, and the first clamping part is used for clamping cooperation with the second clamping part. Optionally, in combination with Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the first clamping part 32 can be a reverse buckle structure, and the second clamping part can be a clamping groove structure, or can be a reverse buckle structure.
[0038] Optionally, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the end surface of the driving end 21 in the button 2 can be provided with a convex pattern 211 to prompt the user that this is the position of the button 2, avoid mis-touching, and at the same time, increase the user's experience.
[0039] Optionally, in combination with Figure 2As shown, the rotating part 33 includes two rotating columns, which are respectively arranged at opposite sides of the buckle 3, and the axes of the two rotating columns are arranged in line. The side wall of the mounting cavity 1a is provided with two rotating side plates, which are arranged at opposite sides of the buckle 3. The two rotating side plates are both provided with rotating grooves, and the two rotating grooves are arranged oppositely. The rotating columns are rotatably connected to the rotating grooves one by one. The buckle 3 can rotate around the axis of the rotating column under the driving of the button 2. In this way, through the cooperation of the rotating column and the rotating groove, the buckle 3 can rotate in a predetermined direction or the reverse direction of the predetermined direction under the action of the button 2 and the elastic member 5, so that the first clamping part 32 and the second clamping part can be clamped and matched or can be unclamped and matched, thereby ensuring the quick plugging and reliability of the endoscope connector 100 and the connecting socket.
[0040] Optionally, the shape of the rotating column can be designed as needed, for example, it can be cylindrical, conical or the like.
[0041] In other embodiments, the number of rotating columns and the number of rotating side plates can also be one, and the rotating column is rotatably connected to the rotating groove of the rotating side plate.
[0042] In one embodiment, as shown in Figure 2 and Figure 3 The endoscope connector 100 includes an elastic member 5, which is arranged in the mounting cavity 1a. One end of the elastic member 5 is connected to the end of the buckle 3 away from the clamping end 31, and the other end is connected to the shell structure. In this way, when the button 2 drives the buckle 3 to rotate, the elastic member 5 can be elastically deformed under the action of the buckle 3, so that when the force applied to the button 2 is removed, the elastic member 5 can drive the buckle 3 to rotate in the reverse direction of the predetermined direction, and then drive the buckle 3 and the button 2 to return to the state before being pressed.
[0043] Optionally, the end of the button 2 away from the driving end 21 can be fixedly connected to the end of the buckle 3 away from the clamping end 31. Alternatively, the end of the button 2 away from the driving end 21 can also be abuttingly matched with the end of the buckle 3 away from the clamping end 31.
[0044] In other embodiments, the button 2 is fixedly connected to the buckle, and the driving end 21 of the button 2 can be provided with a handle, so that the buckle 3 and the button 2 can be restored to the state before being pressed by pulling the handle.
[0045] Optionally, the elastic member 5 and the button 2 can be arranged on the same side of the buckle 3, so that the elastic member 5 is elastically stretched when the button 2 is pressed. Alternatively, the elastic member 5 and the button 2 can be arranged at opposite sides of the buckle 3, so that the elastic member 5 is elastically compressed when the button 2 is pressed.
[0046] Further, in one embodiment, in combination with Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the endoscope connector 100 comprises a resilient arm 4, one end of the resilient arm 4 is connected with the button 2 away from one end of the driving end 21, and the other end is connected with the side wall of the mounting cavity 1a. In this way, the end of the resilient arm 4 away from the button 2 is connected with the shell structure to form a fixed end, and the end of the resilient arm 4 connected with the button 2 is a free end, so that the resilient arm 4 can not only support the button 2, but also make the button 2 movable and resettable, thereby effectively ensuring the reliability of the structure of the endoscope connector 100.
[0047] Further, as shown in Figure 2 and Figure 3 , the shell structure comprises an outer shell 1 and a bracket 6, the outer shell 1 forms the mounting cavity 1a, the bracket 6 is fixedly installed in the mounting cavity 1a, the button 2, the buckle 3 and the resilient arm 4 are all arranged on the same side of the bracket 6, the bracket 6 is provided with a limiting groove 61 with an opening facing the buckle 3, and the end of the elastic member 5 away from the buckle 3 penetrates into the limiting groove 61 and abuts against the bottom wall of the limiting groove 61. In this way, the elastic member 5 can be reliably arranged on the bracket 6 by using the limiting groove 61, so that the elastic member 5 can reliably support the buckle 3, so that when the action force applied to the button 2 is removed, the elastic member 5 can reliably drive the buckle 3 to reset to the state when the second clamping part is clamped, thereby ensuring the reliability of the structure of the endoscope connector 100.
[0048] Optionally, as shown in Figure 2 and Figure 3 , the side of the buckle 3 facing the bracket 6 is provided with a positioning column 34, and the end of the elastic member 5 away from the bracket 6 is sleeved on the positioning column 34. In this way, the reliability of the connection between the elastic member 5 and the buckle 3 can be ensured, so that the elastic member 5 can reliably support the buckle 3, so that the buckle 3 can maintain the state of being connected with the second clamping part when there is no external force, thereby effectively ensuring the reliability of the endoscope connector 100.
[0049] Optionally, as shown in Figure 2 and Figure 3 , the side of the resilient arm 4 facing the bracket 6 is provided with a limiting column 41, and the limiting column 41 is used to abut against the bracket 6 to limit the distance of the movement of the button 2 towards the side close to the bracket 6. In this way, the travel distance of the movable button 2 can be limited within the elastic limit of the elastic member 5 by the abutment of the limiting column 41 and the bracket 6, thereby avoiding damage to the elastic member 5 due to over-travel movement of the button 2, and therefore, the design can effectively ensure the reliability of the endoscope connector 100.
[0050] Optionally, the number of limiting columns 41 can be selected as needed, for example, one, two or more. Preferably, the number of limiting columns 41 can be two, and the two limiting columns 41 are oppositely arranged at intervals in a direction perpendicular to the extension direction of the resilient arm 4.
[0051] In one embodiment, combined Figure 2 As shown, the housing structure includes a first outer shell 11, a second outer shell 12, and an end cap 13. The first outer shell 11 and the second outer shell 12 are arranged opposite to each other and are detachably connected. The end cap 13 is detachably fitted onto one end of the first outer shell 11 and the second outer shell 12. The first outer shell 11, the second outer shell 12, and the end cap 13 together form a mounting cavity 1a. A button hole 111 is provided on the first outer shell 11, and a snap-fit hole 132 is provided on the end cap 13. Thus, the endoscope connector 100 is easy to assemble and disassemble, which is beneficial for maintenance of the endoscope connector 100. When the endoscope connector 100 is connected to the connector socket, the end of the end cap 13 can be inserted into the connector socket so that the snap-fit end 3 extending from the end cap 13 can engage with the second snap-fit part of the connector socket, thereby ensuring the reliability of the connection between the endoscope connector 100 and the connector socket.
[0052] Specifically, the outer casing 1 includes a first outer casing 11, a second outer casing 12, and an end cap 13.
[0053] Specifically, the first outer shell 11 is provided with a first mating part, and the second outer shell 12 is provided with a second mating part. The first outer shell 11 is connected to the second outer shell 12 through a detachable engagement of the first mating part and the second mating part. Schematic, the first mating part may include a hook, and the second mating part may include a groove that engages with the hook.
[0054] In addition, such as Figure 3 As shown, the fixed end of the elastic arm 4 is connected to the first housing 11. The rotating sidewall can be mounted on the first housing 11. The bracket 6 is fixedly mounted on the second housing 12.
[0055] Optional, such as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the end cap 13 has an end plug groove 13a on the side opposite to the first outer shell 11. The plug groove 13a is used to cooperate with the plug boss in the connection socket. The snap-fit end 31 is located in the plug groove 13a, and the second snap-fit part is provided on the outer surface of the plug boss.
[0056] Optional, such as Figure 3 As shown, both the outer surfaces of the first outer shell 11 and the second outer shell 12 are provided with first guide grooves 1b, and the inner wall of the end cap 13 is provided with at least two first guide protrusions 133 spaced apart, with each first guide protrusion 133 correspondingly inserted into the first guide groove 1b. In this way, the cooperation between the first guide protrusions 133 and the first guide grooves 1b can ensure the accuracy of the connection between the end cap 13 and the first outer shell 11 and the second outer shell 12, thereby improving the assembly efficiency of the shell structure.
[0057] Optional, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the outer surface of the end cover 13 is provided with a second guide groove 131, which is used for plug-in cooperation with the connecting socket. In this way, the cooperation of the second guide groove 131 on the end cover 13 with the connecting socket can ensure that the endoscope connector 100 is plugged into the connecting socket in the correct posture, thereby ensuring the accuracy and reliability of the connection between the two.
[0058] Specifically, as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 3 the extension direction of the second guide groove 131 is the same as the plugging direction of the endoscope connector 100 when it is plugged into the connecting socket, so that the cooperation of the second guide groove 131 with the connecting socket can also serve as a plug-in guide.
[0059] Optionally, as shown in Figure 1 the endoscope connector 100 further comprises an adapter plate 7, which is arranged in the mounting cavity 1a, and a part of the adapter plate 7 extends out of the mounting cavity 1a from the end cover 13 to form an adapter part 71, which is used for connecting with the connecting plate of the host computer. In this way, when the endoscope connector 100 is plugged into the connecting socket, the adapter plate 7 of the endoscope connector 100 can be connected with the connecting plate of the host computer, so that the data transmission between the endoscope and the host computer can be realized by the connection between the adapter plate 7 and the connecting plate.
[0060] Specifically, as shown in Figure 3 the adapter plate 7 is fixedly connected with the support 6, so that the adapter plate 7 can be reliably fixed in the mounting cavity 1a.
[0061] In combination with Figures 1 to 3 Figure 3 Figures 1 to 3 , an embodiment of the present application further provides an endoscope system, which comprises a host computer, an endoscope, and the endoscope connector 100 according to any one of the above embodiments. The endoscope is connected with the endoscope connector 100, and the host computer comprises a connecting socket provided with a second clamping part, the endoscope connector 100 is plug-in cooperated with the connecting socket, and the first clamping part 32 is clamped and cooperated with the second clamping part.
[0062] In the above endoscope system, the button 2 is slidably installed in the installation cavity 1a, the buckle 3 is rotatably installed in the installation cavity 1a, the button 2 is connected with the buckle 3, and the buckle 3 is provided with a rotating part 33 rotatably connected with the shell structure, which enables the buckle 3 to rotate around the rotating part 33 in a predetermined direction under the driving of the button 2. Therefore, when the endoscope connector 100 is inserted into the connection socket, the button 2 can be pressed first to rotate the buckle 3, and then the button 2 is released after the endoscope connector 100 is inserted into the connection socket, so that the first clamping part 32 on the buckle 3 can be clamped with the second clamping part on the connection socket, realizing the quick insertion of the endoscope connector 100 and the connection socket, and further realizing the connection between the endoscope and the host. Since the first clamping part 32 and the second clamping part are clamped together, only the button 2 can be pressed to release the clamping between the first clamping part 32 and the second clamping part when the endoscope connector 100 is inserted into the connection socket, and then the endoscope connector 100 can be removed, and the endoscope connector 100 and the connection socket are disconnected. Therefore, in the endoscope system, the endoscope connector 100 will not be loose and fall off, thereby effectively ensuring the reliability and stability of the connection between the endoscope connector 100 and the connection socket, and ensuring the reliability of the connection between the endoscope and the host. Since the endoscope connector 100 can be quickly removed by driving the button 2, the endoscope connector 100 in the endoscope system has the characteristics of quick removal. As can be seen from the above, the endoscope connector 100 of the endoscope system can be quickly inserted and removed from the connection socket, and the reliability of the insertion with the connection socket can be ensured.
