Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical device technology, specifically a simplified model for digestive endoscopy. Background Technology
[0002] Minimally invasive techniques are a key characteristic and advantage of the birth and development of gastrointestinal endoscopy. With rapid technological advancements, this advantage continues to expand and extend. Not only are endoscopic procedures themselves less invasive and damaging, but they also drive innovation in treatment concepts and methods. This transforms lesions such as early-stage gastrointestinal cancers, which previously required surgical intervention, into the primary battleground for endoscopists, offering reliable clinical outcomes, safe use, and reduced overall treatment costs.
[0003] Traditional training for gastroenterologists is learner-centered, employing a "mentor-apprentice" model where operational experience is gained through trial and error. However, with changing times and evolving teaching philosophies, this one-on-one training model is no longer suitable for modern endoscopists. Recent studies have highlighted the importance of endoscopic simulation training models, demonstrating that this approach can significantly shorten the learning curve, reduce complications, and minimize medical disputes.
[0004] Existing endoscopic simulation training models have drawbacks such as limited practice angles and insufficient practice opportunities. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a simplified model for digestive endoscopy to solve the problems mentioned in the background section.
[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0007] A simplified model for digestive endoscopy includes a stent; a channel through which an endoscope can pass, the channel being connected to the stent; a clamping device for holding simulated tissue and opening it, the clamping device being connected to the stent via a first universal joint; and a platform for supporting the simulated tissue, the platform being connected to the clamping device so that the simulated tissue can be opened on the platform.
[0008] The advantages of this setup are: the channel simulates the human gastrointestinal tract, the clamping device opens the simulated tissue, making the simulated tissue act as the lesion site, and the platform provides support for the simulated tissue. Furthermore, due to the presence of the first universal joint, the clamping device and the platform can be adjusted at any angle, and the distance between them and the endoscope tip can be adjusted to a certain extent. This provides the advantage of adjustable practice angles and ample practice opportunities.
[0009] Furthermore, the clamping device includes several grippers distributed along the circumference of the platform, thus enabling the simulated tissue to be opened at multiple locations on the platform, ensuring that the simulated tissue remains in an open state.
[0010] Furthermore, the clamping device also includes several second universal joints, which are connected one-to-one with several grippers. The angle of the grippers can be adjusted by adjusting the second universal joints, that is, the clamping angle of the grippers is variable and can adapt to the situation of the simulated composition.
[0011] Furthermore, the clamping device also includes a mounting platform, with the ends of several second universal tubes away from the grippers connected to one side of the mounting platform, which serves as a support part of the clamping device.
[0012] Furthermore, the simplified model for digestive endoscopy also includes a block, one end of which is connected to the mounting table, and the other end forms a plane that serves as a platform.
[0013] Furthermore, the block tapers from one end near the platform toward the middle to form a cone shape. The structure of the cone shape not only provides sufficient area for the platform, but also reserves space on the side for the adjustment of the second universal joint and the gripper.
[0014] Furthermore, a columnar body is formed on the block from the concave end of the cone towards the end near the mounting platform. The columnar body keeps the block with a smaller diameter when it is placed alongside the second universal joint, thus occupying less space.
[0015] Furthermore, the mounting platform and the first universal joint are connected by any one of the following methods: magnetic connection, Velcro connection, or threaded connection.
[0016] Furthermore, the simplified model for digestive endoscopy also includes a tube, through which a guide tube runs, and the channel is formed by the lumen of the guide tube. Attached Figure Description

[0027] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0028] Example: This example provides the best implementation scheme for a simplified model of digestive endoscopy.
[0029] For details, please see the appendix. Figure 1 ~Appendix Figure 2 The simplified model for digestive endoscopy includes stent 1. Please also refer to the attached document. Figure 3 The support 1 includes a cross 11 for placement on a flat surface and a first vertical frame 12 and a second vertical frame 13 perpendicular to the plane of the cross 11; wherein the cross 11 is detachable, and the first vertical frame 12 and the second vertical frame 13 are also detachable from the cross 11, so that the support 1 is easy to pack and transport; wherein the first vertical frame 12 and the second vertical frame 13 are also connected to the cross 11.
[0030] Please continue reading the appendix. Figure 1 The simplified model for digestive endoscopy also includes a tube 2, which is fixedly connected to the end of the first vertical frame 12 away from the cross 11. A guide tube 21 is also inserted through the tube 1, with both ends of the guide tube 21 extending outside the tube 2. The inner lumen of the guide tube 21 forms a channel 22 through which the endoscope can pass, thus providing support for the endoscope and simulating the gastrointestinal tract.
[0031] Please continue reading the appendix. Figure 1 The simplified model of digestive endoscopy also includes a clamping device 3 for clamping simulated tissue and opening it up. The clamping device 3 is connected to the stent 1 through a first universal tube 4.
[0032] Specifically, one end of the first universal tube 4 is connected to the end of the second vertical frame 13 away from the cross 11, and the other end of the first universal tube 4 is connected to the clamping device 3; thus, the position and angle of the clamping device 3 can be adjusted through the first universal tube 4.
[0033] It should be noted that the structure and principle of the universal joint are existing technologies and will not be elaborated here.
[0034] Please continue reading the appendix. Figure 1 The simplified model for digestive endoscopy also includes a block 5. One end of the block 5 is fixedly connected to the clamping device 3, and the other end forms a platform 51 for supporting the simulated tissue, so that the simulated tissue can be opened on the platform 51. One end of the channel 22 points to the platform 51, so that the endoscope can be applied to the simulated tissue on the platform 51 after passing through the channel 22.
[0035] Meanwhile, since the block 5 is fixedly connected to the clamping device 3, the first universal tube 4 drives the clamping device 3 to change its angle, and at the same time, it also drives the block 5 to adjust its angle.
[0036] Please continue reading the appendix. Figure 1 The clamping device 3 includes a plurality of jaws 31, which are distributed along the circumference of the platform 51. In this embodiment, there are four jaws 31, which are used to clamp the simulated tissue in four directions.
[0037] Please continue reading the appendix. Figure 1 The clamping device 3 also includes four second universal tubes 32, which are connected one-to-one with four grippers 31. When the grippers 31 open the simulated tissue, the simulated tissue can be laid flat on the platform 51 by adjusting the position and angle of the second universal tubes 32.
[0038] Please continue reading the appendix. Figure 1 The clamping device 3 also includes a mounting platform 33. The ends of the four second universal tubes 32 away from the grippers 31 are all connected to one side of the mounting platform 33. The mounting platform 33 is a plate-shaped structure, which serves as a support component of the clamping device 3, connecting the second universal tubes 32 and the grippers 31 together as a whole.
[0039] Please continue reading the appendix. Figure 1 The end of block 5 away from platform 51 is also connected to mounting platform 33, and block 5 and several second universal tubes 32 are basically arranged in a parallel manner.
[0040] Please continue reading the appendix. Figure 1The block 5 contracts from one end near the platform 51 toward the middle of the block 5 to form a cone 52. The plane formed by the expanding end of the cone 52 is the platform 51. This ensures that the platform 51 has a large enough area to support the simulated tissue. At the same time, the structure of the cone 52 also provides space for the gripper 31.
[0041] Please continue reading the appendix. Figure 1 A columnar body 53 is formed on the block 2 from the concave end of the cone-shaped body 32 toward the end near the mounting platform 33. The columnar body 53 is a cylinder, and its end near the mounting platform 33 is fixedly connected to the mounting platform 33.
[0042] In this embodiment, the mounting platform 33 and the first universal joint 4 are connected by magnetic attraction.
[0043] In other embodiments, the mounting platform 33 and the first universal joint 4 can also be connected by Velcro or thread.
