[0060] 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.
[0061] Option 1
[0062] This utility model provides a surgical consumable replacement system, such as Figure 1 As shown, the consumable replacement system includes a storage device 2 and a transport system 5. The storage device 2 is used to store consumables. Figure 2B As shown, the transport system 5 includes a first clamping mechanism 511 and a first motion mechanism 521. The first clamping mechanism 511 is mounted on the first motion mechanism 521. The first clamping mechanism 511 can clamp consumables. The first motion mechanism 521 can drive the first clamping mechanism 511 to move between the surgical robot 8 and the storage device 2, and drive the consumables to be released from the storage device 2.
[0063] The consumable replacement system is installed beside the bed and docks with the surgical robot 8. The first clamping mechanism 511 holds the head of the consumable and, driven by the first motion mechanism 521, moves it towards the surgical robot 8, extracting the consumable from the storage device 2 and delivering it to the surgical robot 8. This consumable replacement system supplies consumables to the surgical robot, reducing the difficulty of installing and replacing consumables, minimizing human intervention in heart valve surgery, reducing the risk of consumable contamination, enabling remote consumable replacement, reducing radiation risks for surgeons, reducing surgeon fatigue, and shortening the learning curve, thus improving surgical precision.
[0064] In some embodiments, the storage device 2 includes a tray 20 and a plurality of placement boxes 24 mounted on the tray 20 for storing consumables. The plurality of placement boxes 24 can store various types of consumables, facilitating storage and retrieval. The consumables can be guidewires 12 or catheters 11, or other surgical consumables.
[0065] Please see Figure 13In one embodiment of this utility model, the placement box 24 includes a box body 241, and a surrounding tube 242 is provided on the placement box 24. The box body 241 provides support for the surrounding tube 242 and the consumables stored therein. The surrounding tube 242 is used to store consumables, and the consumables can be pushed inward through the opening of the surrounding tube 242 to achieve rapid storage of consumables. The consumables extend inside the surrounding tube 242 for easy storage and retrieval. The placement box 24 can store consumables such as straight guidewires 12, ultra-hard guidewires 12, pigtail catheters 11, balloon catheters 11, or valve delivery catheters 11. When the consumables are stored in the surrounding tube 242, the head of the consumables extends from the opening of the surrounding tube 242 to the outside of the surrounding tube 242, which is convenient for the first clamping mechanism 511 to clamp.
[0066] The box 241 can be generally circular, square, polygonal, or elliptical, and the opening of the surrounding pipe 242 extends to the side wall of the box 241. For example... Figure 13 As shown, when the box body 241 is circular, the box body 241 is provided with a box body notch 243. The opening of the circumferential pipe 242 extends to the box body notch 243. The box body notch 243 provides a space for the first clamping mechanism 511 to clamp the consumables in the box body notch 243.
[0067] The placement box 24 is detachably mounted to the tray body 20 for easy replacement and storage of different consumables as needed during surgery. The detachable connection structure between the placement box 24 and the tray body 20 can take many forms. For example, the placement box 24 can be fixed to the tray body 20 with bolts; or, the placement box 24 can be connected to the tray body 20 via a threaded structure; or, the placement box 24 can be connected to the tray body 20 via a snap-fit mechanism.
[0068] The inventor improved the connection structure between the placement box 24 and the plate body 20: such as Figures 14-18As shown, the disc body 20 is provided with a mounting hole 261, and the wall of the mounting hole 261 is provided with a protrusion 262; the storage box 24 is provided with a movable fastener 25, which is installed in the mounting hole 261, and a pin 27 is provided in the mounting hole 261 to limit the movable fastener 25 to prevent it from disengaging from the protrusion 262. During installation, the movable fastener 25 is aligned with the mounting hole 261, and the movable fastener 25 moves under the action of external force, thereby crossing the protrusion 262 from the inside to the outside and entering the mounting hole 261 to engage with the inner side of the protrusion 262; the pin 27 engages with the movable fastener 25 to prevent the movable fastener 25 from moving, thereby keeping the movable fastener 25 engaged with the protrusion 262 to prevent loosening, thus realizing the installation of the storage box 24 onto the storage box body 241. During disassembly, remove the pin 27. The movable buckle 25 can disengage from the protrusion 262 and move away from the mounting hole 261 under external force, thereby separating the placement box 24 from the disc body 20. This connection structure facilitates the assembly and disassembly of the placement box 24 and the disc body 20, and the placement box 24 is not prone to falling off, ensuring the firmness of the connection.
[0069] Furthermore, multiple movable fasteners 25 are circumferentially distributed, and a pin 27 is located in the middle of the multiple movable fasteners 25. During installation, the pin 27 prevents the movable fasteners 25 from moving inward, thereby keeping the movable fasteners 25 engaged with the protrusion 262; during disassembly, the pin 27 is pulled out, the movable fasteners 25 lose the restraint of the pin 27, and can deform inward to disengage from the protrusion 262.
[0070] The structure of the movable fastener 25 is not limited to one type. For example, the movable fastener 25 includes a movable column and a movable column spring. The movable column spring is arranged radially along the mounting hole 261. Under the support of the movable column spring, the movable column moves to the outer side of the inner wall of the protrusion 262. When the movable column is subjected to external force, the movable column spring can be compressed, and the movable column moves inward, thereby moving the movable column to the inner side of the inner wall of the protrusion 262, so that the movable column can cross the protrusion 262 and enter the mounting hole 261. When in the mounting hole 261, the movable column moves outward under the action of the movable column spring, thereby engaging with the protrusion 262.
[0071] In one embodiment, the movable buckle 25 is connected to the cantilever 26, which is capable of inward or outward deformation when subjected to force, causing the movable buckle 25 to move accordingly. Preferably, as shown in the following embodiment... Figure 17As shown, the movable buckle 25 includes a first guide slope 251 located on the inner side and a second guide slope 252 located on the outer side. During installation, the first guide slope 251 abuts against the protrusion 262. By pressing the placement box 24, the movable buckle 25 can move under the guidance of the first guide slope 251 and cross the protrusion 262, making it easy to install the movable buckle 25 into the mounting hole 261. During disassembly, the second guide slope 252 cooperates with the protrusion 262. After removing the pin 27, by pulling the placement box 24 upward, the movable buckle 25 can move under the guidance of the second guide slope 252 and cross the protrusion 262, thereby removing the movable buckle 25 from the mounting hole 261 and completing the disassembly of the placement box 24.
[0072] Furthermore, the placement box 24 is provided with a positioning groove 281, and the disk body 20 is provided with a positioning post 282 inserted into the positioning groove 281; and / or, the disk body 20 is provided with a positioning groove 281, and the placement box 24 is provided with a positioning post 282 inserted into the positioning groove 281. The positioning post 282 cooperates with the positioning groove 281 to position the placement box 24 and the disk body 20, making it convenient to install the placement box 24 onto the disk body 20.
[0073] The disc body 20 can be fixed or movable. Mobility of the disc body 20 adjusts the position of the placement boxes 24, allowing for switching between different placement boxes 24. This facilitates the transport system 5 in retrieving consumables from each placement box 24, enabling the retrieval of different consumables as needed. The transport system 5 can be equipped with limit blocks to fix the disc body 20 in place, facilitating the clamping mechanism 511 to hold the head of the guide wire 12 or the guide tube 11. The disc body 20 can be circular, square, or fan-shaped, and its movement can be linear, curvilinear, or rotary. The shape and movement of the disc body 20 can be configured as required.
[0074] In one embodiment, the disk body 20 includes a turntable 21, such as Figures 7-12 As shown, multiple placement boxes 24 are circumferentially distributed on the turntable 21; the storage device 2 includes a rotating mechanism 30 connected to the turntable 21, which drives the turntable 21 to rotate to adjust the position of the placement boxes 24. When the turntable 21 rotates to a certain angle, a corresponding placement box 24 rotates to the material retrieval position, facilitating the retrieval of consumables as needed; this achieves automatic replacement of consumables, eliminating the need for manual replacement of guidewires 12 or catheters 11 during surgery, reducing human intervention during surgery, and lowering the radiation risk for doctors during the procedure.
[0075] Furthermore, the rotating mechanism 30 includes a shifting motor 31, which is connected to the turntable 21 via a shifting transmission mechanism 32. The shifting motor 31 drives the turntable 21 to rotate via the shifting transmission mechanism 32. The control terminal controls the shifting motor 31 to rotate. When it rotates to a certain angle, a corresponding placement box 24 rotates to the material picking position, and the first clamping mechanism 511 can clamp the consumables in the placement box 24. The shifting transmission mechanism 32 can have many structural forms, for example: Figure 10 As shown, the shifting transmission mechanism 32 includes a gear pair mechanism 321; or, as... Figure 11 As shown, the shift transmission mechanism 32 includes a synchronous belt mechanism 322; or, as... Figure 12 As shown, the shift transmission mechanism 32 includes a pulley mechanism 323.
[0076] like Figure 9 As shown, the disk body 20 includes a fixed disk 22, which includes a railing 23. A turntable 21 is mounted on the fixed disk 22, and the railing 23 surrounds the turntable 21. The railing 23 has a notch 231, through which consumables can extend outward. The railing 23 protects each placement box 24, preventing consumables from sliding out. The turntable 21 rotates each placement box 24, allowing the desired placement box 24 to be rotated to the notch 231. The notch 231 serves as the outlet position for consumables, facilitating the first clamping mechanism 511 to clamp the consumables. Furthermore, the fixed disk 22 also has a disk notch 221. When the placement box 24 rotates to the disk notch 221, the notch 243 of the middle box body 241 of the placement box 24 at least partially overlaps with the disk notch 221 of the fixed disk 22.
[0077] In some embodiments, the storage device 2 includes a recycling device 40, which is mounted on the tray 20. The recycling device 40 is used to collect waste consumables during the surgical procedure. Consumables that need to be removed after use can be recycled into the recycling device 40, ensuring the smooth execution of the surgery. The recycling device 40 has many structural forms; for example, the recycling device 40 includes a column, and consumables can be wound around the column.
[0078] In one embodiment, the recycling device 40 includes a base 41 and a collection tube 42. The base 41 is provided with a circumferential guide groove 411, and the collection tube 42 is installed in the circumferential guide groove 411. Consumables can be inserted into the collection tube 42 through an opening at one end, thus achieving the collection of consumables. The collection tube 42 extends along the circumferential guide groove 411, and the collection tube 42 is circumferential, which saves space and facilitates pushing consumables into the collection tube 42. Preferably, both the circumferential guide groove 411 and the collection tube 42 are generally disc-shaped. Preferably, the inner diameter of the collection tube 42 is large enough to accommodate multiple consumables. More preferably, the collection tube 42 can hold at least 10 consumables.
[0079] Furthermore, the circumferential guide groove 411 is a recess provided on the end face of the base 41, and the collecting tube 42 can be pressed into the circumferential guide groove 411 through the end face of the base 41. Figures 19-20 As shown, the cross-section of the circumferential guide groove 411 is fan-shaped, and its central angle is greater than 180°, in order to hold the collection tube 42 in place and ensure the tightness of the collection tube 42 within the circumferential guide groove 411. The collection tube 42 is a consumable; during use, it is simply pressed into the circumferential guide groove 411. After collecting the waste, the collection tube 42 can be directly removed, making the operation convenient and efficient.
[0080] When collecting waste, the consumables can be driven to the recycling device 40 by the transport system 5, or other transport devices can be set up to drive the consumables to the recycling device 40. When the transport system 5 recycles the guide wire 12 or the conduit 11, the first clamping mechanism 511 clamps the guide wire 12 or the conduit 11 and moves it to the recycling device 40 under the drive of the first motion mechanism 521, which can send the consumables into the collection tube 42.
[0081] In some embodiments, the recycling device 40 and the placement box 24 are distributed along the axial direction of the disk body 20. The storage device 2 includes a switching mechanism 43 connected to the disk body 20, used to drive the disk body 20 to move axially. When retrieving consumables, the placement box 24 is positioned to match the transport system 5 for easy retrieval of consumables; when collecting waste, the switching mechanism 43 drives the disk body 20 to move, adapting the recycling device 40 to the transport system 5, facilitating the transport system 5 to deliver consumables into the recycling device 40, making it convenient to collect replaced consumables as needed during surgery; and without needing to adjust the position of the transport system 5, ensuring stable and reliable docking with the surgical robot 8. Specifically, the switching mechanism 43 includes a switching cylinder 431 connected to the disk body 20, the switching cylinder 431 being arranged along the axial direction of the disk body 20, and the switching cylinder 431 being able to drive the disk body 20 to move axially, realizing the back-and-forth switching of the positions of the recycling device 40 and the placement box 24. Figures 3-6 As shown, the recycling device 40 is installed on the back of the disc body 20.
[0082] Transport system 5
[0083] The transport system 5 can dock with the surgical robot 8 to transport consumables from the storage device 2 to the surgical robot 8. The first clamping mechanism 511 can be a finger mechanism. Specifically, the first clamping mechanism 511 includes a cylinder and a clamping component. The cylinder drives the clamping component to move to clamp or release the consumables. The first clamping mechanism 511 realizes the pulling and conveying of consumables under the drive of the first motion mechanism 521.
[0084] In some embodiments, the transport system 5 includes a second clamping mechanism 512, which is disposed on the side of the first clamping mechanism 511 away from the storage device 2. The second clamping mechanism 512 can clamp or release consumables, and its structure can be similar to that of the first clamping mechanism 511, which will not be described in detail here.
[0085] The second clamping mechanism 512 can be arranged in various ways. In one embodiment, the second clamping mechanism 512 is arranged at one end of the transport system 5 near the surgical robot 8. The second clamping mechanism 512 does not move with the first motion mechanism 521, and its longitudinal position is approximately fixed. The first clamping mechanism 511 can move closer to or further away from the second clamping mechanism 512 under the drive of the first motion mechanism 521. When the first clamping mechanism 511 delivers consumables to the second clamping mechanism 512, the first clamping mechanism 511 and the second clamping mechanism 512 can alternately clamp the consumables to facilitate the first clamping mechanism 511 forward delivery of the consumables.
[0086] In another embodiment, the second clamping mechanism 512 is connected to the third motion mechanism, which drives the second clamping mechanism 512 to move between the surgical robot 8 and the storage device 2. The longitudinal movement of the first clamping mechanism 511 and the longitudinal movement of the second clamping mechanism 512 are relatively independent, but they can cooperate to transport consumables. The first clamping mechanism 511 first pulls out the consumable, and after pulling it out a certain distance, the second clamping mechanism 512 clamps the end of the consumable and moves together toward the surgical robot 8 to transport the consumable to the surgical robot 8.
[0087] In another embodiment, the second clamping mechanism 512 is connected to the first motion mechanism 521 via an unlockable mechanism. When the unlockable mechanism is locked, the first motion mechanism 521 drives the second clamping mechanism 512 to move; when the unlockable mechanism is unlocked, the second clamping mechanism 512 moves. Specifically, the unlockable mechanism may include an electromagnet. When the first clamping mechanism 511 approaches the second clamping mechanism 512, the electromagnet generates electromagnetic force to fix the two together to achieve locking. After the electromagnet is controlled to lose its magnetism, the second clamping mechanism 512 does not move with the first motion mechanism 521, but the first clamping mechanism 511 can move relative to the second clamping mechanism 512.
[0088] Furthermore, the first clamping mechanism 511 and the second clamping mechanism 512 are respectively connected to the second motion mechanism 522 and can move vertically under the drive of the second motion mechanism 522. Through vertical movement, it is easy to insert the consumables into the surgical clamping device 82 of the surgical robot 8, so as to smoothly deliver the consumables into the surgical robot 8.
[0089] The first motion mechanism 521 can have various structural forms. For example... Figure 21As shown, the first motion mechanism 521 includes a lead screw and nut mechanism 53, which includes a nut seat 532 and a lead screw 533 arranged longitudinally. Power is provided by a transport motor 531 to enable the nut seat 532 to move longitudinally on the lead screw 533. Figure 22 As shown, the first motion mechanism 521 includes a rope drive mechanism 54, which includes two rotating wheels 541 arranged longitudinally. A rope 542 is sleeved on the two rotating wheels 541. A first clamping mechanism 511 is connected to the rope 542. The rotating wheels 541 rotate under the drive of the transport motor 531, and the rope 542 drives the first clamping mechanism 511 to move longitudinally. Figure 23 As shown, the first motion mechanism 521 includes a synchronous belt drive mechanism 55, which includes two pulleys 551 arranged longitudinally. A synchronous belt 552 is fitted onto the two pulleys 551. A first clamping mechanism 511 is connected to the synchronous belt 552. The pulleys 551 rotate under the drive of the transport motor 531, driving the first clamping mechanism 511 to move longitudinally via the synchronous belt 552. The consumable conveying system also includes a longitudinal guide mechanism, which includes a slider 561 and a longitudinal guide rail 562. The first clamping mechanism 511 is connected to the slider 561, which helps to ensure that the first clamping mechanism 511 moves smoothly and steadily along the longitudinal direction. The third motion mechanism can also have various structural forms. The third motion mechanism can adopt any of the structural forms of the first motion mechanism 521 described above, which will not be elaborated here.
[0090] The second motion mechanism 522 can also have various structural forms. The second motion mechanism 522 can adopt any of the structural forms of the first motion mechanism 521 described above, which will not be elaborated further here. In one embodiment, such as... Figures 22-23 As shown, the first clamping mechanism 511 and the second clamping mechanism 512 are respectively connected to the second motion mechanism 522 so that the first clamping mechanism 511 and the second clamping mechanism 512 can move independently in the vertical direction.
[0091] Mounting device 6
[0092] The transport system 5 delivers the consumables to the installation location, enabling the consumables to be assembled onto the surgical robot 8. In one embodiment, the consumable replacement system further includes an installation device 6, which is disposed between the transport system 5 and the surgical robot 8. The installation device 6 is used for docking the guidewire 12 and the catheter 11. Figures 24-25As shown, the mounting device 6 includes a guide block 61 with an assembly hole 62. The assembly hole 62 includes a first conical portion 621 and a second conical portion 622. The first conical portion 621 is closer to the transport system 5, and the second conical portion 622 is closer to the surgical robot 8. The first conical portion 621 gradually tapers in the direction pointing towards the second conical portion 622, and the second conical portion 622 gradually tapers in the direction pointing towards the first conical portion 621. The first conical portion 621 guides the guidewire 12, and the second conical portion 622 guides the catheter 11, which helps to align the guidewire 12 with the catheter 11. The transport system 5 clamps the guidewire 12 and pushes it along the assembly hole 62 to insert the guidewire 12 into the inner hole of the catheter 11.
[0093] The guidewire 12 and the catheter 11 are precisely positioned using the installation device 6, ensuring their coaxial alignment and achieving automated coaxial assembly. The minimum inner diameter of the first tapered portion 621 is greater than the outer diameter of the guidewire 12. In one embodiment, a cylindrical portion 623 is provided between the first tapered portion 621 and the second tapered portion 622, allowing the catheter 11 to be inserted into the cylindrical portion 623 and abut against its inner end face for positioning. In another embodiment, the minimum inner diameter of the second tapered portion 622 can be set smaller than the inner diameter of the catheter 11, with the catheter 11 abutting against the inner wall of the second tapered portion 622 to position it, facilitating the smooth insertion of the guidewire 12 into the catheter 11.
[0094] Sheathing mechanism 7
[0095] In one embodiment, the surgical consumable replacement system includes a sheath mechanism 7 arranged along the consumable delivery direction. The consumable can pass through the sheath mechanism 7, which can shorten or lengthen longitudinally. Considering that the consumable is prone to bending during delivery, in this embodiment, when the consumable passes through the sheath mechanism 7, its radial direction is constrained by the sheath mechanism 7 during delivery, which can reduce bending and facilitate smooth delivery. Furthermore, when the first clamping mechanism 511 delivers the consumable, the sheath mechanism 7 can be compressed, thus both making room for the first clamping mechanism 511 and continuously providing radial constraint to the guidewire 12 or catheter 11.
[0096] The sheath mechanism 7 can be arranged in the transport system 5 and can be shortened under the push of the first clamping mechanism 511, thereby providing radial constraint to the consumable as it moves with the transport system 5. The sheath mechanism 7 can be arranged outside the transport system 5 and on the side away from the storage device 2 to provide radial constraint to the consumable as it moves after leaving the transport system 5, ensuring that the consumable moves smoothly forward.
[0097] The sheath mechanism 7 can have various structural forms. In one embodiment, the sheath mechanism 7 includes a slide rod 71, an elastic body 732, and a plurality of sheaths 73 slidably connected to the slide rod 71, such as... Figure 26 As shown, multiple sheaths 73 are spaced apart along the slide bar 71, and an elastic body 732 is disposed between adjacent sheaths 73. Consumables can be inserted into the sheaths 73 by insertion; alternatively, the sidewalls of the sheaths 73 are provided with slots 731 to allow consumables to be inserted into the sheaths 73 through the slots 731. Each sheath 73 can be connected to the slide bar 71 via connecting plates 72. The elastic body 732 is sleeved on the slide bar 71 and disposed between two adjacent connecting plates 72. The elastic body 732 can be a spring.
[0098] like Figure 27 As shown, in another embodiment, the sheath mechanism 7 includes a slide rod 71 and a plurality of elastic sheaths 74, the elastic sheaths 74 being slidably connected to the slide rod 71. The elastic sheaths 74 are connected to the slide rod 71 via a connecting plate 72, and the elastic sheaths 74 are compressed under pressure to reduce their longitudinal length. Further, the elastic sheaths 74 are drum-shaped, with a relatively large diameter in the middle, so that the elastic sheaths 74 will bulge outward under pressure, avoiding inward deformation that could squeeze the consumables.
[0099] Please see Figure 28 In another embodiment, the sheath mechanism 7 includes a slide rod 71 and a spring sheath 75, the spring sheath 75 being slidably connected to the slide rod 71.
[0100] In one embodiment, the sheath mechanism 7 further includes a plurality of connecting plates 72, which are sleeved on the slide rod 71. The spring sheath 75 is connected to the slide rod 71 through the connecting plates 72. Consumables can pass through the spring sheath 75. When the spring sheath 75 is pressed, it is compressed to reduce its longitudinal length.
[0101] In one embodiment, the spring sleeve 75 and the connecting plate 72 are fixedly connected, for example, by welding.

The consumable replacement system supplies consumables, and the surgical robot 8 delivers the consumables. This surgical system can perform surgical operations under remote control, realize automatic replacement of consumables, reduce close-range operations by personnel, and improve the degree of automation.
[0104] like Figure 2AAs shown, the surgical robot 8 includes a pushing device 81 and a surgical clamping device 82, with the storage device 2, transport system 5, surgical clamping device 82, and pushing device 81 arranged sequentially; as Figure 1 As shown, a sheath mechanism 7 is arranged between the pushing device 81 and the surgical clamping device 82, which ensures the smooth forward movement of the consumables. The sheath mechanism 7 can also be arranged on the side of the surgical clamping device 82 closest to the transport system 5.
[0105] Option 3
[0106] This utility model provides a consumable storage device, including: a tray 20, a placement box 24, a recycling device 40, and a switching mechanism. The placement box 24 and the recycling device 40 are both installed on the tray 20. The placement box 24 includes a box body 241 with a surrounding pipe 242 for storing consumables. The recycling device 40 is used to recycle waste materials, and the recycling device 40 and the placement box 24 are distributed along the axial direction of the tray 20. The switching mechanism 43 is connected to the tray 20 and is used to drive the tray 20 to move axially. This consumable storage device is used to store and supply consumables such as guidewires or catheters during surgery, and can collect used consumables during surgery. Consumables that need to be withdrawn after use can be recycled into the recycling device 40, ensuring the smooth implementation of the surgery.
