DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0023] In order to make the purpose, technical scheme and advantages of the present application clearer, the technical scheme of the present application will be described clearly and completely below in combination with the specific embodiments of the present application and corresponding drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some of the embodiments of the present application, not all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor fall within the scope of protection of the present application.
[0024] Reference is made to Figure 1 For the structure schematic diagram of the trolley for multi-degree-of-freedom medical instrument adjustment according to an embodiment of the present application, as shown in the figure, the present embodiment provides a trolley for multi-degree-of-freedom medical instrument adjustment device, which is used for multi-degree-of-freedom position adjustment of the carried medical instrument 5. The medical instrument 5 can be, for example, an ultrasonic probe, a surgical probe, a water jet, or any other instrument component that can be clamped and perform medical examination or surgical operation. A caster is arranged at the bottom of the trolley, so that the trolley caster can be easily moved together with the carried medical instrument and position adjustment assembly in the unlocked condition. Further, the trolley further comprises: a trolley base 1, which can be a bottom plate or similar component with bearing capacity, and a vertical position adjustment module 2, a horizontal position adjustment module 3 and an inclination adjustment module 4 are sequentially arranged on the trolley base 1. Sequential arrangement means that the vertical position adjustment module 2 is arranged on the trolley base 1, the horizontal position adjustment module 3 is arranged on the upper surface of the vertical position adjustment module 2, and the inclination adjustment module 4 is arranged on the upper surface of the horizontal position adjustment module 3.
[0025] Conventionally, in order to quickly adjust the surgical instrument to the target position range, generally follow the principle of first coarse adjustment and then fine adjustment, when operating the device of the embodiment, the operator first moves the trolley carrying the surgical instrument horizontally to the horizontal area corresponding to the target position through the casters, then moves the surgical instrument vertically to the vertical area corresponding to the target position through the vertical position adjustment module, and then finely adjusts the horizontal position of the surgical instrument by means of the horizontal position adjustment module and finely adjusts the inclination direction of the surgical instrument by means of the inclination adjustment module. In this way, the convenience of the doctor's operation can be effectively improved, and the surgical instrument position adjustment function can be quickly and accurately realized.
[0026] As shown in Figures 1-2 , the vertical position adjustment module 2 comprises a vertical sliding pair, which includes a stand 201 and a sliding assembly. The stand 201 is fixedly connected with the trolley base 1, and the sliding assembly comprises a sliding block 203. A mounting plate 205 is arranged on the top of the sliding block 203. The mounting plate 205 carries the horizontal position adjustment module 3, the inclination adjustment module 4 and the surgical instrument 5. Thus, by sliding the sliding block 5 up and down in the vertical direction, the medical instrument 5 can be moved up and down, thereby providing adjustment of the position of the medical instrument 5 in the vertical direction.
[0027] The vertical position adjustment module 2 comprises a mounting plate 205 arranged at the top thereof. The mounting plate 205 at the top of the vertical position adjustment module 2 is provided with the horizontal position adjustment module 3. The horizontal position adjustment module 3 comprises a first horizontal position adjustment module 31 and a second horizontal position adjustment module 32. The first horizontal adjustment module 31 is slidably installed with a first horizontal sliding shaft 310 through a first horizontal sliding block 311. The second horizontal adjustment module 32 is slidably installed with a second horizontal sliding shaft 320 through a second horizontal sliding block 321. The moving direction of the second horizontal sliding shaft 321 is perpendicular to the moving direction of the first horizontal sliding shaft 311. In this way, the trolley of the embodiment can provide position adjustment of the medical instrument in two dimensions in the horizontal direction through the horizontal position adjustment module 3.
[0028] The horizontal position adjustment module 3 comprises a second mounting plate 33 arranged at the top thereof. The second mounting plate 33 at the top of the horizontal position adjustment module 3 is provided with the inclination adjustment module 4. The inclination adjustment module 4 is a multi-joint support arm. The distal end of the distal end support arm of the multi-joint support arm is attached or clamped to the medical instrument 5.
[0029] As shown in Figure 1 , Figure 5As shown, the multi-joint support arm has at least a first rotary joint 41 and a second rotary joint 42, wherein a first arm 401 is located between the mounting plate 33 and the first rotary joint 41, a second arm 402 is located between the first rotary joint 41 and the second rotary joint 42, a third arm 403 and a fourth arm 404 are located between the second rotary joint and the surgical instrument 5.
[0030] Wherein, the extension direction of the second arm 402 is the left-right direction, the extension direction of the first arm 401 is the up-down direction, the first rotary joint 41 provides position adjustment of the left-right inclination angle of the medical instrument 5, and the second rotary joint 42 provides position adjustment of the up-down inclination angle of the medical instrument 5. The first arm 401 and the third arm 403 provide vertical support function, the second arm 402 is used to arrange two rotary joints in the horizontal direction, and the fourth arm 404 is used to arrange the unlocking handle 6 and provide clamping of the medical instrument 5. In this way, the position adjustment of the left-right inclination angle and the up-down inclination angle of the medical instrument can be realized by only two rotary joints, the structure is compact, and the cost is effectively reduced.
[0031] After carrying the horizontal position adjustment module 3 and the inclination angle adjustment module 4, especially the multi-joint support arm of the inclination angle adjustment module 4, the weight of the mechanical structure carried by the trolley is greatly increased, and further, the trolley of the embodiment is further provided with a counterweight adjustment module at the vertical position adjustment module 2 located below the horizontal position adjustment module 3 and the inclination angle position adjustment module 4. Specifically, the counterweight adjustment module is connected on the side of the vertical position adjustment module 2.
[0032] The counterweight adjustment module includes a counterweight block 202, and a sliding assembly in the vertical position adjustment module 2 is connected with the counterweight block 202. Referring to Figure 3 、 Figure 4 The sliding assembly includes a sliding block 203, the sliding block 203 can slide in the vertical direction along the stand 201, a traction rope is provided through the top end of the sliding block 203, and the traction rope is connected with the counterweight block 202 after winding around a rotating wheel.
[0033] As described above, the top end of the sliding block 203 is further fixedly installed with the horizontal position adjustment module 3 and the inclination angle adjustment module 4 through the mounting plate 205, and in the preferred scheme, the weight of the counterweight block 202 is equivalent to the sum of the weight of the sliding block 203 and the horizontal position adjustment module 3 and the inclination angle adjustment module 4 fixedly connected to the sliding block 203, so as to provide force balance in the vertical direction, so that the gravity of the counterweight block 202 can offset all or at least most of the gravity of the sliding block and the components carried thereby. In this way, slight external force can realize the position movement of the surgical instrument 5 in the vertical direction, and easy adjustment can still be realized even in the case of carrying a multi-joint support arm and the like.
[0034] In some embodiments, the number of the rotating wheels is at least two, the traction rope is a steel wire, and the rotating wheels are fixed pulleys. Alternatively, the traction rope is a chain, and the rotating wheels are sprockets. However, when the use environment of the trolley does not allow the weight block 202 to have too large a stroke in terms of the overall size, as shown in Figure 4 the dynamic pulley 204 for the traction rope to pass through can be additionally arranged between the rotating wheels, and the weight of the weight block 202 is increased to twice the original weight, and the corresponding gravity balance can also be achieved.
[0035] In the above scheme, the weight block is arranged to ensure the balance in the vertical direction, and the operator only needs to use a small force to push the sliding assembly to move up and down, and even after the horizontal position adjustment module 3 and the inclination adjustment module 4 are carried, the vertical position adjustment operation can be easily and quickly implemented, and the use requirements of doctors can be better met.
[0036] In some embodiments, the unlocking handle 6 is also arranged, the unlocking handle is arranged at the fourth arm 404 of the multi-section support arm, the handle and the transmission assembly (not shown) are connected through the hinge structure, and the hinge structure drives the transmission assembly to realize the locking and unlocking of each position adjustment module by pressing the handle.
