Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This disclosure relates to the field of endoscope packaging technology, and in particular to an endoscope packaging box. Background Technology
[0002] As a precision medical device, electronic endoscopes are subject to shaking or vibration during carrying and transportation, which inevitably causes collisions between the endoscope and the inner wall of the endoscope packaging box. Therefore, sufficient protection must be provided during transportation, and the packaging must have good shock absorption capabilities.
[0003] As shown in the scheme disclosed in CN221586290U, a top-tightening plate is installed on a U-shaped frame with a spring and a sealing cloth. The inner liner box is then slidably installed in a groove on the top-tightening plate by a slider. The elastic cushioning effect of the top-tightening plate and the spring allows for some cushioning of the inner liner box after installation. However, this scheme has a complex structure and can only accommodate one type of endoscope length. Specific endoscopes require specific packaging boxes, which leads to inconvenience during transportation. Furthermore, designing multiple inner liners reduces the economic efficiency for the manufacturer. To enable the packaging box to accommodate endoscopes of different types and lengths, the internal receiving grooves can be structurally designed to accommodate endoscopes of various lengths. For example, the packaging box can have three end receiving grooves, which can accommodate the insertion ends of endoscopes of three different lengths, thus improving the versatility of the packaging box to a certain extent.
[0004] However, the front end of the endoscope insertion section is equipped with a variety of optical components and various precision and small structural components. Therefore, it is not desirable for the front end of the insertion section to be bent when the endoscope is placed in the packaging box, so as not to damage the endoscope and affect its performance.

[0024] To more clearly illustrate the technical solutions of the embodiments in this specification, the accompanying drawings used in the description of the embodiments will be briefly introduced below. Obviously, the drawings described below are merely some examples or embodiments of this specification. For those skilled in the art, these drawings can be applied to other similar scenarios without creative effort. Unless obvious from the context or otherwise specified, the same reference numerals in the drawings represent the same structures or operations.
[0025] As indicated in this specification and claims, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, the words "a," "an," "an," and / or "the" do not specifically refer to the singular and may also include the plural. Generally speaking, the terms "comprising" and "including" only indicate the inclusion of expressly identified steps and elements, which do not constitute an exclusive list, and the method or apparatus may also include other steps or elements.
[0026] The following is a reference to the appendix. Figure 1 The following describes the methods for implementing this utility model.
[0027] like Figures 1-5As shown, in some embodiments, the endoscope packaging box includes a box body 1, a box cover 2, a handle 3, and a locking device 4. One side of the box body 1 is connected to the box cover 2 via a rotatable connection, the specific connection method including but not limited to a pivot and a hinge. One end of the second tube mounting groove 10 and one end of the third tube mounting groove 11 are connected to the first tube mounting groove 9. The other ends of the second tube mounting groove 10 and the third tube mounting groove 11 merge and connect to the front mounting groove. With this arrangement, there are two path options, the second tube mounting groove 10 and the third tube mounting groove 11, extending from the endoscope mounting groove to the front mounting groove. This enriches the placement methods of the endoscope body and can accommodate endoscopes of more length specifications, thereby ensuring that the front end of the endoscope insertion part is in a straight line inside the packaging box, fully protecting its internal precision components. In addition, the third tube mounting groove 11 and the second tube mounting groove 10 are first split by the first tube mounting groove 9 and then merge into the front mounting groove, which can make full use of the space inside the box and further improve the utilization rate of the packaging box.
[0028] like Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, the length of the third pipe mounting groove 11 is greater than the length of the second pipe mounting groove 12. When extending to the front mounting groove, there can be different lengths of mounting groove paths to choose from. The cooperation with the front mounting groove can have more length types to choose from, thereby adapting to endoscope bodies of different lengths.
[0029] like Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, the two sides of the third pipeline mounting groove are respectively close to the two side walls adjacent to the housing and parallel to the two adjacent side walls of the housing. The middle part of the third pipeline mounting groove is arc-shaped. This setting can make full use of the right-angle corner of the housing 1. The part close to the side wall of the housing 1 is straight, which can maximize the length of the third pipeline mounting groove 11. The arc shape in the middle can prevent the endoscope body from bending too much, making it easy to store and retrieve. The two sides of the second pipeline mounting groove near the side wall of the housing are arc-shaped to prevent the endoscope body from bending and to facilitate its placement. The straight middle part can increase the length difference between the second pipeline mounting groove 10 and the third pipeline mounting groove 11. Understandably, the third pipeline mounting groove 11 can be entirely arc-shaped, and the second pipeline mounting groove 10 can be entirely arc-shaped or straight.
[0030] like Figures 1-3 As shown, the housing 1 is provided with a mounting slot for accommodating an endoscope, specifically including an operating part mounting slot 5 for mounting the endoscope operating part, a light guide part mounting slot 6 for mounting the endoscope light guide part, and an accessory mounting slot 7 for mounting endoscope accessories.
[0031] like Figure 4As shown, in some embodiments, the housing 1 includes a connecting part mounting groove 8 for mounting the pipeline between the operation part and the light guide part, and a mirror mounting groove for accommodating the endoscope body. The operation part mounting groove 5 and the light guide part mounting groove 6 are connected by the connecting part mounting groove 8.
[0032] like Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, the endoscope mounting slot includes a first tubing mounting slot 9, a second tubing mounting slot 10, a third tubing mounting slot 11, and a front end mounting slot. The front end mounting slot includes a first front end mounting slot 12, a second front end mounting slot 13, a third front end mounting slot 14, and a fourth front end mounting slot 15, and their lengths are arranged from smallest to largest as a first front end mounting slot 12, a second front end mounting slot 13, a third front end mounting slot 14, and a fourth front end mounting slot 15. The four different lengths of the front end mounting slots can be adapted to endoscopes of different lengths.
[0033] The second and third tubing mounting slots 10 and 11, along with the first, second, third, and fourth front-end mounting slots 12, 13, 14, and 15, provide eight possible mounting paths for the endoscope when accommodating it.
[0034] In some embodiments, the second tubing mounting slot 10 and the first front end mounting slot 12 work together to accommodate an endoscope with a length of 1125 mm.
[0035] In some embodiments, the second tubing mounting slot 10 and the second front-end mounting slot 13 work together to accommodate an endoscope with a length of 1387 mm.
[0036] In some embodiments, the second tubing mounting slot 10 and the third front mounting slot 14 work together to accommodate an endoscope up to 1580 mm in length.
[0037] In some embodiments, the second tubing mounting slot 10 and the fourth front mounting slot 15 work together to accommodate an endoscope with a length of 1708 mm.
[0038] In some embodiments, the third tubing mounting slot 11 and the first front end mounting slot 12 work together to accommodate an endoscope with a length of 1217 mm.
[0039] In some embodiments, the third tubing mounting slot 11 and the second front-end mounting slot 13 work together to accommodate an endoscope with a length of 1479 mm.
[0040] In some embodiments, the third tubing mounting slot 11 and the third front mounting slot 14 work together to accommodate an endoscope with a length of 1672 mm.
[0041] In some embodiments, the third tubing mounting slot 11 and the fourth front mounting slot 15 work together to accommodate an endoscope up to 1800 mm in length.
[0042] In the above embodiments, the endoscopes include, but are not limited to, colonoscopes, gastroscopes, duodenoscopes, etc., and a wide variety of endoscopes can be accommodated. The length values in the above embodiments are the maximum accommodating lengths. Endoscopes with lengths slightly smaller than the above lengths can also be accommodated without affecting the straightness of the endoscope insertion tip.
[0043] like Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, the first front-end mounting groove 12, the second front-end mounting groove 13, the third front-end mounting groove 14 and the fourth front-end mounting groove 15 are in a straight line at the tail end. Since the front end of the endoscope insertion part is equipped with a variety of optical devices and various precision and small structural components, it is not desirable for the front end of the insertion part to be bent when the endoscope is placed in the packaging box. Therefore, being in a straight line at the tail end can effectively avoid damage to the front end of the endoscope insertion part.
[0044] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, the fourth mounting groove 15 and the connecting part mounting groove 8 intersect. This intersecting part can make full use of the space of the housing without affecting the accommodation of the endoscope, and can accommodate more endoscopes of different lengths within a limited space.
[0045] like Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the mounting groove inside the box 1 has two heights: a first height H1 around the shaded area and a second height H2 inside, with H1 being greater than H2. Since the endoscope instruction manual has a relatively thick thickness, the height H2 of the internal mounting groove is less than the surrounding height H2. The instruction manual can be placed in the internal mounting groove and used in conjunction with the instruction manual limiting groove on the box cover 2. This can reduce the overall thickness of the packaging box, making it more convenient to carry and saving materials and reducing production costs.
[0046] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, one side of the box body 1 is rotatably connected to the box cover 2, and a handle 3 is provided on the other side parallel to this side, which facilitates the operator to open and carry it.
[0047] Locking devices 4 are located on both sides adjacent to the side where the handle 3 is located. Locking devices 4 are used to lock and open the box body 1 and the box cover 2. This setting can facilitate the operation of the operator.
[0048] like Figure 6As shown, in some embodiments, the lid 2 is provided with an operating part handwheel limiting groove 18, an instruction manual mounting groove 16, and a light guide limiting groove 17. The operating part handwheel limiting groove 18 cooperates with the operating part mounting groove 5 on the box body 1 to fix and accommodate the endoscope operating part. The instruction manual mounting groove 16 is used to accommodate the endoscope instruction manual. The light guide limiting groove 17 cooperates with the light guide mounting groove 6 on the box body 1 to fix and accommodate the endoscope light guide. The mounting groove on the box body 1 and the limiting structure on the lid 2 cooperate with each other to further improve the stability of the endoscope in the packaging box, and make the entire packaging box smaller and use less material, thus achieving the purpose of saving costs.
[0049] like Figure 1 As shown, in some embodiments, the box body 1 is provided with an instruction manual limiting angle 19, which is used to cooperate with the instruction manual mounting groove 16 on the box cover 2 to further fix and limit the instruction manual, preventing the instruction manual from shaking inside the packaging box and hitting the endoscope and causing damage.
