Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. The components of the embodiments of this utility model described and shown in the accompanying drawings can generally be arranged and designed in various different configurations.
[0028] Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed invention, but merely to illustrate selected embodiments of the invention. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention. Example
[0029] Please see Figure 1-2 This embodiment discloses a single-motor dual-drive structure, which is suitable for electric anastomosis devices and can achieve separate switching of dual drives through a single knob.
[0030] The single-motor dual-drive structure includes a motor assembly, a drive assembly, a linkage assembly, and a toggle assembly, wherein the motor assembly includes a motor 5 and a motor gear 6 driven to rotate by the motor output shaft.
[0031] Specifically, the first component is the toggle assembly, which includes a toggle knob 1 and a toggle gear 2. The toggle gear 2 is mounted on the central axis of the toggle knob 1 and rotates around this central axis. Preferably, the toggle knob 1 is provided with anti-slip texture, which enhances the operator's feel when toggleing the knob, making the rotation more stable and easier to control.
[0032] Secondly, there is a drive assembly, which includes a first drive gear 3 and a second drive gear 4. The first drive gear 3 and the second drive gear 4 are respectively meshed and connected to both sides of the motor gear 6. A first rack 7 that moves synchronously is connected to the first drive gear 3, and a second rack 8 that moves synchronously is connected to the second drive gear 4. The first rack 7 and the second rack 8 are arranged parallel to each other, and the teeth on the two racks are arranged facing each other.
[0033] The first rack 7 and the second rack 8 are configured to move linearly as the actuating gear 2 rotates. The first rack 7 and the second rack 8 are arranged on both sides of the actuating gear 2 to ensure that the two racks can move in opposite directions.
[0034] To control the direction of the rack's movement and ensure smooth linear motion, guide blocks are provided on the rack, forming an integral structure with it. Preferably, a first guide block 9 is connected to the first rack 7, and a second guide block 10 is connected to the second rack 8.
[0035] Furthermore, the first drive gear 3 is connected to the first guide block 9 via a pin, and the second drive gear 4 is connected to the second guide block 10 via a pin, enabling the two drive gears to move synchronously in a straight line with their corresponding racks.
[0036] In addition, there is a linkage component, which includes a first coupling 11 and a second coupling 12. The first coupling 11 is connected to the output end of the first drive gear 3, and the second coupling 12 is connected to the output end of the second drive gear 4. The rotary knob 1 drives the first rack 7 and the second rack 8 to move in opposite directions through the rotary gear 2, thereby synchronously driving the first drive gear 3 and the second drive gear 4 to move back and forth in opposite directions to achieve misalignment, so that the first coupling 11 and the second coupling 12 are misaligned.
[0037] The single-motor dual-drive structure in this embodiment also includes a third coupling 13 and a fourth coupling 14. The third coupling 13 is adapted to mesh with the first coupling 11, and the fourth coupling 14 is adapted to mesh with the second coupling 12. The third coupling 13 and the fourth coupling 14 can move synchronously with the movement of the corresponding first coupling 11 and second coupling 12.
[0038] Furthermore, a third coupling 13 is installed at the input end of the firing gear set 15, on which a firing screw 16 is drivenly connected, and a fourth coupling 14 is installed at the input end of the reversing screw 17.
[0039] The operation process of the single-motor dual-drive structure in this embodiment is as follows:
[0040] Initially, the first drive gear 3 and the second drive gear 4 are meshed and connected to both sides of the motor gear 6 and remain in standby mode. The first rack 7 and the second rack 8 are connected to their respective drive gears and are also in standby mode.
[0041] Actuation: The operator rotates the toggle knob 1 clockwise, causing the toggle gear 2 to rotate around the central axis. This rotation drives the first rack 7 and the second rack 8 to move linearly in opposite directions. The linear movement of the racks synchronously drives the corresponding first drive gear 3 and second drive gear 4 to move linearly, achieving a forward-backward misalignment. Simultaneously, the first coupling 11 and the second coupling 12 also shift forward and backward along with the movement of the drive gears.
[0042] When the first coupling 11 moves forward, the first coupling 11 is connected to the third coupling 13. Then the motor 5 drives the motor gear 6 to rotate, the firing gear set 15 is driven, and the firing screw 16 and the working end connected to the firing screw 16 move to achieve firing engagement. At this time, the second coupling 12 and the fourth coupling 13 are misaligned, and the reversing screw 17 rotates freely.
[0043] When the second coupling 12 moves forward, the second coupling 12 is connected to the fourth coupling 14. Then the motor 5 drives the motor gear 6 to rotate, and the reversing screw 17 is driven to move to realize the reversal. At this time, the first coupling 11 and the third coupling 13 are misaligned, and the gear set 15 is idling. Example
[0044] Please see Figure 3 An electric stapler includes a handle housing 18 and a single-motor dual-drive structure, wherein the single-motor dual-drive structure is installed in the inner cavity of the handle housing 18.
[0045] The electric stapler drives the two meshing racks to move in different directions by rotating the fixed axis of the gear 2, thereby realizing the forward and backward movement of the two drive gears and causing the corresponding couplings to be misaligned and separated, achieving a single-drive effect.
[0046] The beneficial effects of this utility model's single-motor dual-drive structure and electric anastomosis device are:
[0047] The single-motor drive ensures precise and stable motion control during firing or reversing actions, thus guaranteeing surgical outcomes.
[0048] By combining the forward and backward movements of two racks with a single motor to drive the misalignment separation control, the accuracy and stability of the action are improved while ensuring a simple and compact structure.
[0049] At the same time, due to the gear and rack transmission, the transmission efficiency of the entire system has also been significantly improved.
[0050] The above description is merely an embodiment of this utility model and does not limit the patent scope of this utility model. Any equivalent structural or procedural transformations made based on the content of this utility model specification, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are similarly included within the patent protection scope of this utility model.
