AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Endoscope lenses are easily bumped or broken during use and transportation, rendering them unusable.

Method used

An endoscope with a lens protective sleeve was designed. An air bladder and a threaded cylinder were set inside the sleeve. The threaded cylinder squeezed the air bladder to expand the limiting air bladder to protect the lens. The expansion of the limiting air bladder squeezed and restricted the lens.

Benefits of technology

Effectively protects the endoscope lens from bumps and drops, ensuring the lens's integrity.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of endoscope technology, specifically to an endoscope with a lens protective cover. Background Technology

[0002] Endoscopes are frequently used in medicine. Because endoscopes are generally large in size and have long tubing at the examination end, and the lens and some functional ports at the front of the examination end are very precise, the endoscope lens is easily damaged or broken due to the swinging of the endoscope wiring harness during transportation and cleaning after use and transportation and installation before use, rendering the endoscope unusable.

[0003] Therefore, an endoscope with a lens protective cover is proposed. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an endoscope with a lens protective cover to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: an endoscope with a lens protective sleeve, comprising an endoscope body, a sleeve sleeved on the outer side of the endoscope body, mounting holes evenly formed on the inner sidewall of the sleeve, an airbag installed inside the sleeve, the airbag penetrating the interior of the mounting holes, and a threaded cylinder for compressing the airbag installed at one end of the sleeve.

[0006] Preferably, the airbag includes a pressure-bearing airbag; the pressure-bearing airbag is located between the threaded cylinder and the sleeve.

[0007] Preferably, multiple interconnected airbags are evenly installed on the pressure-bearing airbag.

[0008] Preferably, a limiting airbag is connected to each of the plurality of connecting airbags, and the limiting airbag is located inside the mounting hole.

[0009] Preferably, multiple fixing frames are evenly installed inside the sleeve, and the limiting airbag is connected to the fixing frames.

[0010] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: the endoscope lens is placed inside the sleeve, and then the pressure bladder is squeezed by the threaded cylinder, causing the volume of the limiting bladder to expand, thereby squeezing and restricting the lens, and at the same time completing the protection work, avoiding damage to the endoscope lens.

[0017] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention.

[0018] Please see Figure 1-5 This utility model provides a technical solution: an endoscope with a lens protective sleeve, including an endoscope body 1, a sleeve 2 is sleeved on the outer side of the endoscope body 1, mounting holes 5 are evenly opened on the inner side wall of the sleeve 2, an airbag 4 is installed inside the sleeve 2, the airbag 4 passes through the interior of the mounting hole 5, and a threaded cylinder 3 for squeezing the airbag 4 is installed at one end of the sleeve 2.

[0019] like Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown: the airbag 4 includes a pressure airbag 43; the pressure airbag 43 is located between the threaded cylinder 3 and the sleeve 2; with the above arrangement, the threaded cylinder 3 can rotate and move outside the sleeve 2, and the inner wall of the threaded cylinder 3 compresses the pressure airbag 43, so that the air inside the pressure airbag 43 enters the interior of the limiting airbag 41, thereby restricting the lens of the endoscope body 1.

[0020] like Figure 3 As shown: Multiple connecting airbags 42 are evenly installed on the pressure-bearing airbag 43; through the above arrangement, the connecting airbags 42 can connect the pressure-bearing airbag 43 and the limiting airbag 41 together, which facilitates the flow of gas.

[0021] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown: Multiple connecting airbags 42 are respectively connected to limiting airbags 41, and the limiting airbags 41 are located inside the mounting hole 5; through the above settings, the limiting airbags 41 will expand in volume after air enters, and then wrap the endoscope lens to protect the lens.

[0022] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown: Multiple fixing brackets 6 are evenly installed inside the sleeve 2, and the limiting airbag 41 is connected to the fixing brackets 6; through the above settings, the position of the limiting airbag 41 can be restricted and fixed, avoiding the situation where the position of the limiting airbag 41 deviates.

[0023] Working principle: When it is necessary to protect the endoscope lens, the endoscope is inserted into the sleeve 2, and then the threaded cylinder 3 is rotated to move on the sleeve 2. During the movement of the threaded cylinder 3, it can compress the pressure bladder 43, so that the gas inside the pressure bladder 43 enters the limiting bladder 41 through the connecting bladder 42, causing the limiting bladder 41 to expand. The increased volume of the limiting bladder 41 will compress and restrict the endoscope lens, thereby protecting the lens.

[0024] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
