Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of endoscope protective sleeve technology, specifically an improved endoscope protective sleeve. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of medical device technology, laparoscopic surgery is widely used in various surgical procedures due to its minimally invasive nature and rapid recovery. As an indispensable part of laparoscopic surgery, the protective sleeve for laparoscopy primarily functions to protect the endoscope and surgical instruments from contamination or damage during the procedure. However, existing protective sleeves present several problems that urgently need to be addressed. Current protective sleeves are typically made of materials such as plastic film and straps. While they offer some protection, they reveal numerous shortcomings in practical use. Some sleeves, due to unreasonable material or structural design, are easily burned through when surgical instruments generate high heat, leading to contamination. Furthermore, some sleeves have a smooth surface, making it difficult for medical personnel to hold surgical instruments stably during surgery, increasing surgical risks.

[0003] The existing protective sleeves for endoscopes currently in use also present many inconveniences during installation and use. The installation process of some protective sleeves is cumbersome and time-consuming, and they cannot be quickly unfolded during actual use, which affects the efficiency of surgery. Utility Model Content

[0004] This utility model provides an improved endoscope protective sleeve. By setting up an endoscope protective component that is easy to install and remove, it can be installed and removed more conveniently while ensuring that there is no contamination during the operation. This solves the technical problems of traditional endoscope protective sleeves, which are cumbersome to install, time-consuming, and cannot be quickly unfolded in actual use, thus affecting the efficiency of the operation.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0006] An improved endoscope protective sleeve includes an endoscope rod and further includes: an endoscope connector is provided on the endoscope rod, an upper disc is threadedly fitted on the endoscope connector, a ring is provided below the upper disc, and an endoscope protection component is provided between the ring and the upper disc.

[0007] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the endoscope protection component includes a retainer, the bottom of which is fixedly connected to a ring, a retainer groove is formed on the side wall of the retainer, an inner protective ring is provided inside the retainer, and a retaining post is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the inner protective ring. The retaining post is configured to cooperate with the retainer groove on the retainer.

[0008] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the card holder is covered with a laparoscopic protective sleeve, the laparoscopic protective sleeve is a foldable structure, and the top and bottom of the laparoscopic protective sleeve are respectively fixedly connected to the upper disk and the ring.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, an outer protective ring is provided on the outside of the endoscope protective sleeve. When the ring is tightened with the retainer, the outer protective ring is secured. The outer and inner protective rings together provide protection for the endoscope protective sleeve.

[0010] This invention has the following advantages: by disassembling and separating the ring and the disc, and then unfolding the endoscope protection component, it is possible to protect the patient during the operation and improve safety. At the same time, the endoscope protection sleeve is easy to install and disassemble, making it convenient to use and improving the efficiency and safety of the operation. Moreover, after the endoscope protection sleeve is unfolded, the protective ring will automatically fall off without affecting the doctor's operation, making it more convenient.

[0016] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments described herein are for illustration and explanation only and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0017] Example 1, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 An improved endoscope protective sleeve includes an endoscope rod 1, and further includes: an endoscope connector 2 disposed on the endoscope rod 1, an upper disc 3 threaded onto the endoscope connector 2, a ring 8 disposed below the upper disc 3, and an endoscope protective assembly disposed between the ring 8 and the upper disc 3; see reference. Figure 3 and Figure 4In actual use, the operator can separate the ring 8 from the upper disc 3 and then drive the endoscope protection component to unfold, which can protect the patient during the operation and improve safety. At the same time, the endoscope protection sleeve 10 is easy to install and disassemble, making it convenient to use and improving the efficiency and safety of the operation.

[0018] Example 2, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The laparoscopic protection assembly includes a retainer 4, the bottom of which is fixedly connected to a ring 8. A slot 5 is formed on the side wall of the retainer 4, and an inner protective ring 7 is provided inside the retainer 4. A retaining post 6 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the inner protective ring 7. The retaining post 6 is configured to cooperate with the slot 5 on the retainer 4. In actual use, the retaining post 6 and the slot 5 are correspondingly set. The operator can rotate the retaining post 6 into the slot 5 of the retainer 4 by rotating the ring 8 to achieve fixed installation. This operation method is more efficient and convenient. When disassembling, the inner protective ring 7 can be removed by simply rotating it in the opposite direction, which can effectively improve surgical efficiency.

[0019] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 The casing 4 is fitted with a laparoscopic protective sleeve 10, which has a foldable structure. The top and bottom of the laparoscopic protective sleeve 10 are fixedly connected to the upper disc 3 and the ring 8, respectively. (See reference...) Figure 3 and Figure 4 In actual use, the endoscope protective sleeve 10 is convenient to use and install due to its foldable and retractable nature, and can also better protect the surgical environment and prevent contamination of surgical instruments.

[0020] See Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The laparoscopic protective sleeve 10 is provided with an outer protective ring 9. When the ring 8 is tightened with the retainer 4, the outer protective ring 9 is secured. The outer protective ring 9 and the inner protective ring 7 form a protective layer for the laparoscopic protective sleeve 10. Under the action of the outer protective ring 9, the inner protective ring 7 can be used to store and protect the laparoscopic protective sleeve 10. At the same time, when disassembling, the ring 8 can drive the inner protective ring 7 to be removed, and the outer protective ring 9 will fall off accordingly. Disassembly is very convenient and has a good protective effect on the laparoscopic protective sleeve 10. It is also easy to install and disassemble, thus improving surgical efficiency.

[0021] In the implementation of this utility model, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3During installation, the upper disc 3 is threadedly connected to the endoscope connector 2. The endoscope protective sleeve 10 is located between the ring 8 and the upper disc 3. In actual use, rotating the ring 8 causes the locking contact on the inner protective ring 7 to disengage from the locking groove 5. Then, pulling the ring 8 causes the endoscope protective sleeve 10 to extend, achieving isolation and protection of the surgical instruments. At the same time, the outer protective ring 9 falls off. This device provides a safer and cleaner environment for surgery, while facilitating installation and disassembly, improving surgical efficiency, safety, and effectiveness. After the endoscope protective sleeve 10 is actually disassembled, both the inner protective ring 7 and the outer protective ring 9 will fall off, leaving only the ring 8, which will not affect the doctor's operation.
