Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical equipment technology, and in particular to a synchronous angle opening and closing mechanism for a surgical robot. Background Technology

[0002] Surgical robots are being used more and more widely in the medical industry. Surgical robots typically include a master operating end and a patient operating end, which are master-slave teleoperation structures. Medical staff operate the master operating end and then control the movement of the patient operating end.

[0003] The main operating end of a surgical robot includes a main manipulator, which comprises an arm and a wrist. The wrist includes an opening and closing mechanism, a first L-link, a second L-link, and a third L-link. The opening and closing mechanism typically includes a pinch rod and two opening and closing flaps, each hinged to the pinch rod. During use, medical personnel need to control the opening and closing of the two flaps. However, in existing technologies, the synchronization between the two flaps during opening and closing is insufficient, affecting the precision of control and potentially impacting control over the patient's surgical end. Utility Model Content

The first opening and closing shaft and the second opening and closing shaft are arranged in parallel. A first opening and closing flap unit is hinged to the first opening and closing shaft, and a second opening and closing flap unit is hinged to the second opening and closing shaft. The first opening and closing flap unit includes a first opening and closing flap and a first synchronous gear. The first opening and closing flap and the first synchronous gear rotate synchronously.

[0020] like Figures 1-5As shown, the synchronous angle opening and closing mechanism of the surgical robot involved in this application includes a pinching rod seat 1, which is used for rotatable connection with a relevant L-link in the wrist of the surgical robot. A pinching rod 2 is fixedly connected to the pinching rod seat 1, and a pinching rod housing 20 is provided at the pinching rod 2.

A first opening and closing flap unit is hinged to the second opening and closing shaft 19, and a second opening and closing flap unit is hinged to the second opening and closing shaft 19. The first opening and closing flap unit includes a first opening and closing flap 3 and a first synchronous gear 7. The first opening and closing flap 3 and the first synchronous gear 7 rotate synchronously. The second opening and closing flap unit includes a second opening and closing flap 4 and a second synchronous gear 13. The second opening and closing flap 4 and the second synchronous gear 13 rotate synchronously. The first synchronous gear 7 and the second synchronous gear 13 mesh with each other to realize the synchronous opening and closing of the first opening and closing flap 3 and the second opening and closing flap 4.

[0021] The structure of the first opening / closing flap unit is as follows: Two first support plates 6 are provided opposite to each other on the first opening / closing flap 3. A first directional shaft 8 passes through the two first support plates 6 in sequence, and the first directional shaft 8 is fixedly connected to the two first support plates 6. A first through hole 9 is provided in the first directional shaft 8 along its own axis. The first opening / closing shaft 18 passes through the first through hole 9, and the first directional shaft 8 can rotate relative to the first opening / closing shaft 18. A first synchronous gear 7 is provided on the first directional shaft 8 between the two first support plates 6. The first synchronous gear 7, the first directional shaft 8, and the first opening / closing flap 3 maintain synchronous rotation. Specifically, the first directional shaft 8 is a square shaft.

A first torsion spring 10 is provided on the first directional shaft 8 between the two first support plates 6 or on the outer surface of the cylindrical part of the first synchronous gear 7. When the first opening and closing flap 3 performs a closing movement, the first torsion spring 10 acts on the first opening and closing flap 3, giving it an opening tendency and ensuring that the first opening and closing flap 3 can automatically rebound. A first magnet 11 is also provided on the first opening and closing flap 3.

[0022] The first and second opening / closing flap units are arranged in a mirror image symmetrical manner. The structure of the second opening / closing flap unit is as follows: two second support plates 12 are provided opposite to each other on the second opening / closing flap 4. The second directional shaft 14 passes through the two second support plates 12 in sequence and is fixedly connected to the two second support plates 12. The second directional shaft 14 is provided with a second through hole 15 along its own axis direction. The second opening / closing shaft 19 passes through the second through hole 15. The second directional shaft 14 can rotate relative to the second opening / closing shaft 19. A second synchronous gear 13 is provided on the second directional shaft 14 between the two second support plates 12. The second synchronous gear 13 meshes with the first synchronous gear 7.

Specifically, the second directional shaft 14 is a square shaft, and a square hole adapted to the square shaft is provided on the second support plate 12. The second synchronous gear 13 also has a square hole adapted to the square shaft. The second directional shaft 14 engages with the square holes in the second support plate 12 and the second synchronous gear 13, and a limiting member restricts the movement of the second directional shaft 14 and the second synchronous gear 13 along the axial direction of the second directional shaft 14. A second torsion spring 16 is provided on the second directional shaft 14 between the two second support plates 12 or on the outer surface of the cylindrical portion of the second synchronous gear 13. When the second opening / closing flap 4 performs a closing movement, the second torsion spring 16 acts on the second opening / closing flap 4, giving it an opening tendency and ensuring that the second opening / closing flap 4 can automatically rebound. A second magnet 17 is also provided on the second opening / closing flap 4. A magnetic induction device, such as a Hall element, is provided in the pinch rod 2. The magnetic induction device is used to sense the magnetic field strength of the magnetic elements (first magnet 11, second magnet 17), thereby obtaining the opening / closing angle of the opening / closing mechanism.

[0023] Opening and closing flap shells 5 can be provided at both the first opening and closing flap 3 and the second opening and closing flap 4. A wiring groove is provided between the first opening and closing flap 3 and its corresponding opening and closing flap shell 5, and a wiring groove is also provided between the second opening and closing flap 4 and its corresponding opening and closing flap shell 5.

The third L-link d is rotatably connected to the first joint of the wrist on the arm, which is rotatably connected to the third L-link d, which is rotatably connected to the second joint of the wrist, which is rotatably connected to the third L-link d, which is rotatably connected to the second L-link c, and the rotation axis of the first L-link b is perpendicular to the horizontal direction, which is set as the third joint of the wrist. The opening and closing mechanism a is rotatably mounted on the first L-link b, which is the fourth joint of the wrist, and the rotation axis of the opening and closing mechanism a is set parallel to the horizontal direction.

[0025] Since the second synchronizing gear 13 meshes with the first synchronizing gear 7, when the first opening / closing flap 3 and the second opening / closing flap 4 are operated, their movement trajectories and directions will theoretically remain mirror-symmetrical, and their speeds will be consistent. The first synchronizing gear 7 and the second synchronizing gear 13 involved in this application are made of copper to increase wear resistance and extend service life.

[0026] The synchronous angle opening and closing mechanism of the surgical robot involved in this application can realize the synchronous movement of two opening and closing flaps by setting two meshing synchronous gears, thereby improving the synchronization accuracy of the two opening and closing flaps. It also has the advantages of being easy to use, reliable in operation, and occupying little space.
