Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of minimally invasive surgical instruments, specifically a medical mechanical gripper. Background Technology
[0002] With the continuous advancement of medical technology, minimally invasive surgery has become an important trend in modern medicine. Traditional laparoscopic surgical instruments are relatively mature, with their types and functions largely standardized. However, because most traditional laparoscopic surgical instruments have limited functions, they present a significant operational advantage in the face of increasingly complex minimally invasive surgeries. However, due to the complexity of the technology and commercial monopoly associated with these robots, the cost of using them for minimally invasive surgery remains high, limiting their large-scale adoption.
[0003] In recent years, with the advancement of technology, a surgical robotic hand device has emerged that is between traditional laparoscopic surgical instruments and multi-degree-of-freedom surgical robots. It not only possesses the multi-degree-of-freedom and high flexibility of the da Vinci robot, but also, due to its purely mechanical structure, it has the low-cost characteristics of traditional laparoscopic surgery. However, its structure is very compact and relatively complex, and it generally adopts an integrated design with a whole section of steel wire wrapped around it for installation, which is quite difficult. Therefore, a medical robotic gripper has been proposed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0019] 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.
[0020] Please see Figure 1-3In this embodiment, a medical mechanical gripper includes a handle 1, a finger gripper 2 rotatably mounted on the left side of the handle 1, a transition connection box 3 mounted on the top of the handle 1, a bent rod 4 fixedly mounted on the top of the transition connection box 3, a locking assembly 5 disposed inside the transition connection box 3, an extension rod 6 fixedly mounted on the side of the bent rod 4 away from the transition connection box 3, a transmission working assembly 8 disposed on the left side of the extension rod 6, a pitch shaft 7 rotatably mounted inside the transition connection box 3, and a handle saddlebag 9 disposed on the left side of the handle 1.
[0021] The transmission working assembly 8 includes a finger shaft 801, which is rotatably mounted inside the finger clamp 2. A winding wheel 802 is fixedly mounted on the surface of the finger shaft 801. A transition shaft 803 is rotatably mounted inside the transition connection box 3. A transition wheel 804 is fixedly mounted on the surface of the transition shaft 803. A reversing shaft 805 is rotatably mounted inside the transition connection box 3. A traction wheel 806 is fixedly mounted on the surface of the reversing shaft 805. Four anti-tipping wheels 807 are rotatably mounted inside the bent rod 4. A guide groove 810 is provided inside the extension rod 6. A first transmission shaft 808 and a second transmission shaft 811 are rotatably mounted and fixedly mounted inside the left side of the extension rod 6. A traction wheel 809 is fixedly mounted on the surface of the first transmission shaft 808. A threading plate 812 is fixedly mounted on the left side of the second transmission shaft 811. Two clamping tooth plates 813 are rotatably mounted on the left side of the threading plate 812.
[0022] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a handle saddlebag 9 is installed on the left side of the handle 1, and the transition spool 804 and the winding spool 802 are connected by a transmission steel wire. When the winding spool 802 rotates, it can also drive the transition spool 804 to rotate.
[0023] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the transition sheave 804 and the traction sheave 806 are connected by a transmission steel wire. When the transition sheave 804 rotates, it can drive the traction sheave 806 to rotate. By setting the transmission sheave, the connection and transportation of the transmission steel wire are facilitated. By setting the rotating shaft and the guide wheel, and both guide wheels are connected to the traction sheave 809 by the transmission steel wire, the two transmission steel wires are connected to the guide wheel through the wire hole, reducing the mutual interference between the steel wire ropes.
[0024] like Figure 2As shown, by setting a swing shaft and a base 10, the device can swing left and right. By setting a locking assembly 5, which includes a rotating shaft 501, a wire groove 502, a locking box 503, a rotating rod 504, and a cam 505, in use, by rotating the rotating shaft 501, the rotating shaft 501 drives the lead-out wheel to rotate, the lead-out wheel tightens the transmission steel wire, and then drives the take-up wheel to rotate, which in turn drives the rotating rod 504 to rotate. The rotating rod 504 drives the cam 505 to rotate, and the cam 505 pushes the pin into the insertion hole inside the base 10, thereby locking the base 10 and the transition connection box 3 through the insertion action. When it is to be released, the rotating shaft 501 is rotated in the opposite direction, which drives the cam 505 to move away from the pin. Then, through the reset action of the spring, the pin moves away from the insertion hole, thereby releasing the base 10 and the transition connection box 3. Thus, locking and releasing with left and right degrees of freedom can be achieved. The locking assembly 5 set at the pitch axis 7 works in the same way.
[0025] When the transmission working component 8 is running, operate according to the following steps:
[0026] 1) First, control the opening and closing of the clamping fingers 2 to rotate the finger shaft 801, which in turn drives the winding wheel 802 to rotate;
[0027] 2) Then the winding wheel 802 drives the transition shaft 803 to rotate through the transition wheel 804;
[0028] 3) The transition pulley 804 drives one of the anti-tipping pulleys 807 to rotate through the traction pulley 806. Since every two of the four anti-tipping pulleys 807 are connected by a transmission steel wire, the other three anti-tipping pulleys 807 rotate accordingly.
[0029] 4) Finally, as the anti-tipping wheel 807 rotates, it drives the traction wheel 806 to rotate, thereby driving the first drive shaft 808 to rotate. The traction wheel 806 drives the two clamping plates 813 to clamp through the cooperation of the guide wheel and the rotating shaft, which facilitates operation.
[0030] In summary, this medical robotic gripper, through the setting of the transmission working component 8 and the cooperation of the finger shaft 801 and the winding wheel 802, etc., only requires the thumb and index finger to be inserted into the gripper finger 2 on the handle to control the opening and closing of the gripper finger 2. The gripper tooth plate 813 can be controlled through the structure such as the finger shaft 801. Through the above setting, not only are fewer mechanical structures required, but the operation is also simple, lowering the learning threshold, reducing the training cost of minimally invasive surgery, and improving surgical efficiency, thus having practicality.
[0031] Furthermore, this medical robotic gripper, by setting a locking component 5, can lock and release the device by swinging left and right during operation through the cooperation of the rotating shaft and the wire groove 502, thereby controlling the left and right swing locking and releasing of the tool end, namely the clamping tooth plate 813, etc., and by also setting a locking component 5 at the pitch axis 7, the pitch angle can also be locked and released, thereby improving the operating efficiency.
