Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of endoscope technology, specifically to an image processing device and an endoscope system. Background Technology

[0002] An endoscope system typically includes an image processing unit and at least part of an endoscope that can be inserted into the human body. The image processing unit, after establishing a communication connection with the endoscope, can receive image information transmitted back by the endoscope in a timely manner. Therefore, the image processing unit usually integrates modules such as a display and control module, a power supply module, and a signal transceiver module. This necessitates the pre-installation of numerous interfaces and buttons on the image processing unit. During use, too many buttons can easily lead to accidental activation, affecting the normal operation of the system. Utility Model Content

[0003] The main purpose of this invention is to propose an image processing device and endoscope system, which aims to solve the problem that buttons in traditional image processing devices are easily accidentally pressed, thus affecting the normal use of the whole machine.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides an image processing apparatus, comprising:

[0005] The housing, wherein the front end plate of the housing has mounting holes; and,

[0006] A trigger module includes a switch and a press. The switch is housed within the housing and located behind the mounting hole. The switch includes a trigger portion facing the mounting hole. The press is movably mounted in the mounting hole in a front-rear direction.

[0007] The trigger module further includes an elastic element, one end of which is fixed relative to the housing, and the other end is connected to the pressing element. When the pressing element is pressed by an external force, the pressing element drives the elastic element to move backward and elastically press against the trigger part; and when the external force is removed, the elastic element drives the pressing element to move forward and maintains a distance from the trigger part.

[0008] Optionally, the switch further includes a main body portion, which is fixedly mounted on the housing;

[0009] The front peripheral sidewall of the main body is provided with a support rib plate. The support rib plate extends circumferentially along the main body. The support rib plate includes a first rib segment near its radial inner side and a second rib segment near its radial outer side. One end of the elastic member is fixedly supported on the front end surface of the first rib segment. The second rib segment gradually bends forward and tilts upward to radially limit the elastic member.

[0010] Optionally, the pressing element includes:

[0011] A fixing seat, having a groove at its rear end, is provided with the fixing seat covering the outer side of the front section of the trigger portion through the groove; and,

[0012] The pressing cap is concave and connected to the front end of the fixing base. The pressing cap is made of elastic material. When the pressing cap is pressed by an external force, the pressing cap deforms backward and abuts against the fixing base.

[0013] Optionally, one of the fixing base and the pressing cap is provided with a positioning pin, and the other is provided with a positioning hole, wherein the positioning pin and the positioning hole are inserted and engaged; and / or,

[0014] One of the fixing base and the pressing cap has a protruding buckle, and the other has a recessed buckle hole. The buckle and the buckle hole fasten and fix the pressing cap, and prevent the pressing cap from detaching from the fixing base in the forward direction.

[0015] Optionally, the fixing seat is provided with an abutting protrusion at the bottom wall of the groove, and multiple abutting protrusions are arranged sequentially around the periphery of the central axis of the fixing seat, and each abutting protrusion extends in an arc shape.

[0016] When the pressing member is pressed by an external force, the abutting protrusion is driven and abuts against the trigger part.

[0017] Optionally, the fixing seat also has a protruding rib on the bottom wall of the groove, and multiple protruding ribs are arranged sequentially around the periphery of the central axis of the fixing seat, each of the protruding ribs including:

[0018] A bottom side rib section protrudes from the bottom wall of the groove of the fixing seat and extends radially in an elongated shape; the bottom side rib section provides support and fixation for one end of the elastic member; and,

[0019] The peripheral rib segment bends and extends backward from the bottom rib segment. The peripheral rib segment is located on the periphery of the trigger part. The peripheral rib segment has a guide protrusion protruding towards the trigger part. When the pressing member is pressed by an external force, the guide protrusion slides backward along the outer peripheral sidewall of the trigger part.

[0020] Optionally, the image processing apparatus further includes a power supply device housed within the housing and electrically connected to the switching element.

[0021] Optionally, the display module further includes a display module comprising:

[0022] A display panel, the display panel being exposed and mounted on the front panel of the housing; and,

[0023] A transparent cover is provided over the front end of the display panel and is detachably connected and fixed to the housing.

[0024] Optionally, the image processing device further includes an interface component, which is disposed on the front end plate of the housing and located on the same side of the display panel, and is used to connect to the endoscope device.

[0025] The interface components include a high-resolution imaging signal input interface, a high-resolution imaging signal output and storage interface, a three-dimensional imaging signal input interface, and / or a three-dimensional imaging signal output and storage interface.

[0026] In addition, to achieve the above objectives, this utility model also provides an endoscope system, including an endoscope device and an image processing apparatus as described above.

[0027] In the technical solution provided by this utility model, the switch is housed within the casing, preventing the triggering part of the switch from being directly activated. Activation must be achieved indirectly through the operation of a pressing component. The pressing component is elastically connected to the casing via an elastic element, allowing it to elastically press against the triggering part when pressed by external force, preventing direct rigid collision. Furthermore, it maintains a gap between the pressing component and the triggering part when the external force is removed. This gap serves two purposes: firstly, it prevents accidental activation of the pressing component from immediately transmitting the signal to the triggering part, thus significantly reducing the probability of accidental activation; secondly, it appropriately extends the pressing stroke of the pressing component, thereby improving the user experience when pressing it.

[0042] Please see Figures 1 to 7 This invention provides an image processing device and an endoscope system for its application. The endoscope system further includes an endoscope. The endoscope and the image processing device are mechanically and / or electrically connected.

[0043] Specifically, the image processing device includes a housing 100 and a trigger module 200. In addition, the image processing device may also include a display module 200.

[0044] For ease of understanding, the following embodiments will be described using an image processing device having two roughly perpendicular directions: forward / backward, left / right, and up / down. In practical applications, the up / down direction roughly corresponds to the direction of gravity. The forward / backward and left / right directions are two roughly perpendicular directions on a horizontal plane. Furthermore, the front end of the image processing device generally refers to the part that is primarily faced by the user.

[0045] In view of the above, the housing 100 includes a front housing plate 110.

[0046] The housing 100 defines a mounting area at the front housing plate 110. This mounting area may extend through the front housing plate 110 in a front-rear direction. Alternatively, the mounting area may be recessed into the front surface of the front housing plate 110. The display module 200 includes a display panel 210, which is exposed and mounted at the front housing plate 110 of the housing 100. Specifically, the display panel 210 may be exposed and mounted at the aforementioned mounting area. This facilitates the display panel 210 displaying images facing forward.

[0047] Furthermore, the display module 200 also includes a transparent cover 220. The transparent cover 220 covers the front end of the display panel 210 and is detachably connected and fixed to the housing 100. The transparent cover 220 is made of, for example, glass material, which does not affect the display function of the display panel 210 and can effectively protect the display panel 210.

[0048] The housing 100 has a mounting hole 111 extending from front to back at the front end shell plate 110. The mounting hole 111 is located beside the aforementioned mounting area, for example, on the left side of the mounting area.

[0049] The trigger module 300 includes a switch 310 and a press 320. The switch 310 is completely housed within the housing 100, thus providing relatively comprehensive protection for the switch 310. The switch 310 is located behind the mounting hole 111, meaning that the front surface of the switch 310 does not extend beyond the front surface of the mounting hole 111.

[0050] The switch 310 includes a main body 311 and a trigger part 312 facing the mounting hole 111. The main body 311 is fixedly disposed relative to the housing 100. Specifically, for example, the main body 311 can be connected and fixed to the housing 100 by any suitable detachable connection method. The trigger part 312 is movably mounted to the front end of the main body 311 in the front-rear direction. When the trigger part 312 moves rearward to the target position, the switch 310 can be triggered. Conversely, when the trigger part 312 moves forward to separate from the target position, the switch 310 is not triggered.

[0051] The pressing member 320 is movably mounted in the mounting hole 111 in the front-to-back direction. This ensures that when the pressing member 320 moves backward, it gradually approaches and presses against the trigger part 312, ultimately moving the trigger part 312 backward to the target position. Conversely, when the pressing member 320 moves forward, it releases the trigger part 312 and gradually moves away from it, ensuring that the switch member 310 is not triggered.

[0052] The trigger module 300 also includes an elastic element 330. One end of the elastic element 330 is fixed relative to the housing 100, and the other end is connected to the pressing element 320. When the pressing element 320 is pressed by an external force, the pressing element 320 drives the elastic element 330 to move backward and elastically press against the trigger part 312. When the external force is removed, the elastic element 330 drives the pressing element 320 to move forward and maintain a distance from the trigger part 312.

[0053] In the technical solution provided by this utility model, the switch 310 is housed within the casing 100, preventing the trigger portion 312 of the switch 310 from being directly triggered. Triggering must be achieved indirectly through the operation of the pressing member 320. The pressing member 320 is elastically connected to the casing 100 via an elastic member 330. This allows the pressing member 320 to elastically press against the trigger portion 312 when an external force is applied, preventing direct rigid collision. Furthermore, when the external force is removed, a gap is maintained between the pressing member 320 and the trigger portion 312. This gap serves two purposes: firstly, it prevents accidental activation of the pressing member 320 from immediately transmitting the signal to the trigger portion 312 and triggering the device, thus significantly reducing the probability of accidental activation; secondly, it appropriately extends the pressing stroke of the pressing member 320, thereby improving the user experience when pressing the pressing member 320.

[0054] The specific type of elastic element 330 is not limited; it can be, but is not limited to, spring elements, sheet elements, rubber blocks, etc.

[0055] The elastic modulus of the elastic element 330 can be set to remain constant along the front-to-back direction. In this case, when an external force presses the pressing element 320, the elastic element 330 can be gradually compressed, causing the pressing element 320 to gradually approach and press against the trigger part 312.

[0056] Of course, depending on actual needs, the elastic modulus of the elastic element 330 can also be set to gradually change along the front-to-back direction. For example, the elastic element 330 includes a first elastic segment and a second elastic segment arranged sequentially from front to back. The elastic modulus of the first elastic segment can be greater than that of the second elastic segment. In this way, when an external force presses the pressing element 320, it will first be resisted by a larger reverse force; then the pressing will become smoother. This ensures that in the event of accidental contact with the pressing element 320, a small accidental contact force cannot cause the pressing element 320 to move backward.

[0057] Please combine Figure 4 and Figure 7 As described above, the main body 311 of the switch 310 is fixedly mounted to the housing 100. At this time, the rear end of the elastic member 330 can be fixedly mounted to the housing 100 at its location. And / or, the rear end of the elastic member 330 can be fixedly mounted to the main body 311 at its location.

[0058] For example, a support rib 313 protrudes from the front peripheral side wall of the main body 311. The support rib 313 can be integrally formed with the main body 311. Alternatively, the support rib 313 and the main body 311 can be detachably or non-detachably connected after being formed separately.

[0059] The supporting stiffeners 313 extend circumferentially along the main body 311. The supporting stiffeners 313 can be continuously arranged around the main body 311 to form a ring structure. Alternatively, the supporting stiffeners 313 can be intermittently arranged around the main body 311 to form multiple segments.

[0060] The supporting rib 313 includes a first rib segment 313a near its radially inner side and a second rib segment 313b near its radially outer side. Similarly, the first rib segment 313a and the second rib segment 313b can be integrally formed. Alternatively, the first rib segment 313a and the second rib segment 313b can be obtained by detachably or non-detachably connecting them after separate forming.

[0061] One end of the elastic member 330 is fixedly supported on the front end surface of the first rib segment 313a. Therefore, at least locally the plate surface of the first rib segment 313a must be large enough to support the elastic member 330.

[0062] The second rib segment 313b gradually bends and curves forward from the inside out. In this way, the curved part of the second rib segment 313b can radially limit the elastic member 330, preventing the elastic member 330 from detaching radially from the main body 311. Furthermore, when the elastic member 330 is subjected to rearward compressive force, the second rib segment 313b can also prevent the elastic member 330 from deforming excessively radially, thus preventing structural damage.

[0063] Please combine Figures 5 to 7 The pressing component 320 includes a fixed base 321 and a pressing cap 322.

[0064] The rear end of the fixing base 321 is provided with a groove 321a. The fixing base 321 covers the outer side of the front section of the trigger part 312 through the groove 321a. In this way, the movement of the trigger part 312 can be radially limited by the peripheral groove wall of the groove 321a. And the movement of the trigger part 312 can be forward limited by the bottom wall of the groove 321a.

[0065] The press cap 322 is concave. Furthermore, the concave side of the press cap 322 is connected rearward to the front end of the mounting base 321. This makes the front end of the press cap 322 essentially form a hollow, raised portion. The press cap 322 is made of an elastic material. Thus, when an external force presses the raised portion of the press cap 322, the hollow structure of the press cap 322 provides a certain deformation space for the press cap 322 to deform rearward. The pressing force is transmitted to the mounting base 321 when the press cap 322 deforms to abut against the mounting base 321. Similarly, the hollow and elastically deformable design of the press cap 322 helps to further prevent accidental activation and extend the pressing stroke.

[0066] When the press cap 322 is assembled to the fixing base 321, in one application, one of the fixing base 321 and the press cap 322 is provided with a protruding positioning pin 323a, and the other is provided with a recessed positioning hole 323b, with the positioning pin 323a and the positioning hole 323b engaging in a mating fit. For example Figures 5 to 6 As shown, a positioning hole 323b is provided in the fixed base 321 along the front-rear direction, and a positioning pin 323a is protruded on the rear end surface of the pressing cap 322. The positioning pin 323a and the positioning hole 323b cooperate to ensure that the pressing cap 322 is installed in place on the fixed base 321.

[0067] The combination of locating pin 323a and locating hole 323b can be configured as one set or at least two sets. For example... Figures 5 to 6 When configured as two sets, the two sets of locating pins 323a and locating holes 323b can be formed on both radial sides of the central axis of the fixed base 321. In this way, the two sets of locating pins 323a and locating holes 323b can also help limit the rotation of the pressing cap 322 relative to the fixed base 321.

[0068] The positioning pin 323a is generally cylindrical. In this way, when the pressing cap 322 deforms backward, the positioning pin 323a and the positioning hole 323b form a certain sliding fit, which is equivalent to forming a guide structure. This can accurately guide the backward movement of the pressing cap 322, thereby ensuring that the direction of the external force on the fixing seat 321 is accurate.

[0069] And / or in one application, one of the mounting base 321 and the pressing cap 322 has a protruding snap 324a and a recessed snap hole 324b, the snap 324a and the snap hole 324b securing and preventing the pressing cap 322 from disengaging forward from the mounting base 321. For example Figures 5 to 6As shown, a snap hole 324b is provided through the fixing base 321 along the front-to-back direction, and a snap fastener 324a protrudes from the rear end surface of the pressing cap 322. The engagement of the snap fastener 324a and the snap hole 324b ensures that the pressing cap 322 is properly installed on the fixing base 321. The protruding part of the snap fastener 324a engages with the rear end surface of the groove bottom wall of the fixing base 321, preventing the pressing cap 322 from detaching forward from the fixing base 321.

[0070] When the fixing seat 321 is moved backward by the pressing cap 322, the bottom wall of the groove of the fixing seat 321 may first abut against the trigger portion 312. Alternatively, in one design, the fixing seat 321 has an abutting protrusion 325 protruding from the bottom wall of the groove 321a. When the fixing seat 321 is moved backward by the pressing cap 322, the abutting protrusion 325 is moved and first abuts against the trigger portion 312.

[0071] Multiple abutment protrusions 325 are arranged sequentially around the central axis of the fixing base 321, and each abutment protrusion 325 extends in an arc shape. Thus, when the fixing base 321 is driven to move backward, all the abutment protrusions 325 can simultaneously move backward and abut against various circumferential parts of the trigger portion 312, achieving a more balanced backward push against the trigger portion 312. This prevents the trigger portion 312 from tilting relative to the main body 311 during its backward movement.

[0072] The fixing base 321 also has protruding ribs 326 on the bottom wall of the groove 321a. Multiple ribs 326 are arranged sequentially around the periphery of the central axis of the fixing base 321. The ribs 326 can correspond one-to-one with the aforementioned abutment protrusions 325, or they can be staggered from each other. When the ribs 326 and abutment protrusions 325 are arranged one-to-one, they can be adjacent or radially spaced. When the ribs 326 and abutment protrusions 325 are adjacent, they can be integrally formed. Alternatively, they can be obtained by detachable or non-detachable connection after separate molding.

[0073] Each rib 326 includes a bottom rib segment 326a and a peripheral rib segment 326b. The bottom rib segment 326a protrudes from the bottom wall of the groove of the fixing base 321 and extends radially in an elongated shape. The bottom rib segment 326a is supported and fixed at one end of the elastic member 330. The bottom rib segment 326a can be directly supported and fixed at one end of the elastic member 330 through a flat surface. Alternatively, the bottom rib segment 326a can be recessed with a groove. The bottom rib segment 326a is supported and fixed at one end of the elastic member 330 through the groove.

[0074] The peripheral rib segment 326b extends backward from the bottom rib segment 326a. The peripheral rib segment 326b and the bottom rib segment 326a can be integrally formed. Alternatively, the peripheral rib segment 326b and the bottom rib segment 326a can be obtained by detachable or non-detachable connection after separate forming.

[0075] The peripheral rib segment 326b is located on the periphery of the trigger portion 312. A guide protrusion 326c protrudes from the peripheral rib segment 326b toward the trigger portion 312. When the pressing member 320 is pressed by external force, the guide protrusion 326c slides backward along the outer peripheral sidewall of the trigger portion 312. When the peripheral rib segments 326b are arranged sequentially around the central axis of the fixing base 321, the relative movement of the fixing base 321 relative to the trigger portion 312 can be aligned, ensuring that each abutting protrusion 325 accurately abuts at the corresponding position on the front end surface of the trigger portion 312. This prevents misalignment in the relative movement of the two components.

[0076] The trigger module 300 mentioned above can be configured as one or at least two. Each trigger module 300 can be electrically connected to at least one functional module built into the image processing device according to actual needs.

[0077] The specific type of the above-mentioned functional modules is not limited, and may include, but is not limited to, power supply modules, main control boards 610, heat sinks 640, high-resolution imaging modules, 3D imaging modules, adapter boards 650, etc.

[0078] For example, the power module includes a power device 400. The power device 400 is housed within the housing 100. A switch 310 in the trigger module 300 is connected to the power device 400. Thus, when the press member 320 triggers the trigger portion 312 of the switch member 310, the power device 400 can be controlled to turn on or off.

[0079] The aforementioned high-resolution imaging module may also include a high-resolution imaging circuit board 620. The specific type of high-resolution imaging is not limited, for example, 4K ultra-high-definition imaging. The aforementioned three-dimensional imaging module may also include a three-dimensional imaging circuit board 630.

[0080] Next, the image processing device also includes an interface component. The interface component is disposed on the front shell plate 110 of the housing 100 and is located on the same side as the display panel 210. In this way, the layout of the front shell plate 110 of the housing 100 can be more compact and orderly, and also more aesthetically pleasing.

[0081] The interface components are used to connect to an endoscope. For example, the interface components include a high-resolution imaging signal input interface 511, a high-resolution imaging signal output storage interface 512, a three-dimensional imaging signal input interface 513, and / or a three-dimensional imaging signal output storage interface 514. The high-resolution imaging signal output storage interface 512 and the three-dimensional imaging signal output storage interface 514 can be configured as USB interfaces to facilitate the output and storage of image information to an external USB device.

[0082] The high-resolution imaging signal input interface 511 and the high-resolution imaging signal output storage interface 512 are respectively connected to the high-resolution imaging circuit board 620. Furthermore, when the endoscope is inserted into place, the input, output, and storage of the high-resolution imaging signal can be achieved.

[0083] The three-dimensional imaging signal input interface 513 and the three-dimensional imaging signal output storage interface 514 are respectively connected to the three-dimensional imaging circuit board 630. Furthermore, when the endoscope is inserted into place, the input, output, and storage of three-dimensional imaging signals can be realized.

[0084] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and does not limit the patent scope of the present utility model. All equivalent structural transformations made under the inventive concept of the present utility model using the contents of the present utility model specification and drawings, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the patent protection scope of the present utility model.
