It is also equipped with accessories such as an electrocautery device, a cutting device, and biopsy forceps.
[0003] Existing cystoscopes typically use a tube to inject a sterile solution into the bladder to support its interior. However, this method can cause patients to feel the urge to urinate, leading to discomfort. Additionally, the sterile solution entering the bladder can affect the viewing angle of the cystoscope lens. Therefore, we propose a cystoscope with a bladder support structure. Utility Model Content

[0022] The embodiments of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0023] Example:
[0024] like Figures 1-4 As shown, a cystoscope with a bladder support structure includes a cystoscope insert 1, an inner sleeve 2 inside the cystoscope insert 1, an inner tube 3 movably connected to the inner side of the inner sleeve 2, a camera 4 inside the inner tube 3, an electrocautery device 5 inside the inner tube 3, a fixing groove 6 and a first slot 7 equidistantly provided at one end of the cystoscope insert 1, a movable pull rope 8 movably provided inside the inner sleeve 2, a connecting end block 9 fixedly connected to the end of the movable pull rope 8 away from the cystoscope insert 1, a connecting and opening mechanism 10 provided at one end of the cystoscope insert 1, and the other end of the movable pull rope 8 passing through the other end of the cystoscope.
[0025] The working principle of the above technical solution is as follows:
[0026] During use, when the entire assembly is inserted into the bladder, the movable pull rope 8 can be pulled, causing the movable pull rope 8 to move the connecting end block 9, thereby adjusting the connecting expansion mechanism 10 so that the connecting expansion mechanism 10 can be expanded inside the bladder, thus expanding the bladder. The operation is convenient.
[0027] In another embodiment, such as Figure 1 As shown, a movable protective mechanism 11 is movably connected to one end of the cystoscope insertion rod 1.
[0028] When the whole is not in use, the ends of the whole can be protected by the active protective mechanism 11 to avoid damage or infection, and the operation is convenient.
[0029] In another embodiment, such as Figure 3As shown, the connecting support mechanism 10 includes a movable mounting block 12. A second slot 13 is provided on the outer side of the movable mounting block 12. A connecting support rod 14 is fixedly connected to one end of the movable mounting block 12. A connecting end ring 15 is fixedly connected to the other end of the connecting support rod 14. A fixing through hole 16 is provided in the middle of the surface of the connecting end ring 15. Rubber fastening rings 17 are movably provided on the inner side of the second slot 13 and the first slot 7. Connecting sleeve blocks 18 are symmetrically provided on the side of the connecting end ring 15 near the connecting support rod 14.
[0030] When the movable rope 8 moves the connecting end block 9, it can move the connecting sleeve block 18, causing the connecting end ring 15 to move and squeeze the connecting support rod 14, so that the connecting support rod 14 can bend and arch outward, thereby supporting the bladder. The operation is convenient.
[0031] In another embodiment, such as Figure 3 As shown, the outer side of the rubber fastening ring 17 is in contact with the inner side of the second slot 13 and the first slot 7, and the outer side of the front end of the inner tube 3 is in contact with the inner side of the fixing through hole 16.
[0032] The rubber fastening ring 17 can be stably locked inside the first slot 7 and the second slot 13, thereby connecting and fixing the cystoscope insert 1 and the movable mounting block 12. Then, when the connecting end ring 15 moves, it can move stably on the outer surface of the inner tube 3, making the operation convenient.
[0033] In another embodiment, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the outer surface of the connecting end block 9 is in contact with the inner surface of the connecting sleeve block 18.
[0034] This allows the connecting end block 9 to be stably engaged inside the connecting sleeve block 18, thus ensuring a stable connection.
[0035] In another embodiment, such as Figure 3 As shown, the outer surface of the movable mounting block 12 is in contact with the inner surface of the fixing groove 6.
[0036] The movable mounting block 12 can be stably inserted into the inner side of the fixing groove 6 for connection, making operation convenient.
[0037] In another embodiment, such as Figure 2 As shown, the movable protective mechanism 11 includes a movable sleeve 19. A connecting magnet 20 is fixedly connected to one end of the inner side of the movable sleeve 19. The connecting magnet 20 and the connecting end ring 15 are attracted to each other. The movable sleeve 19 is located on the outer side of the end of the cystoscope insertion rod 1.
[0038] When not in use as a whole, the movable sleeve 19 is placed on the outer side of the end of the cystoscope rod 1, and the connecting magnet 20 and the connecting end ring 15 are attracted to each other to form a connection. This allows the movable sleeve 19 to stably protect the end component of the cystoscope rod 1, making operation convenient.
[0039] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: During use, the movable sleeve 19 is first moved so that the connecting magnet 20 disengages from the connecting end ring 15, and the movable sleeve 19 disengages from the outer side of the end surface of the cystoscope insertion rod 1. Then, the end of the cystoscope insertion rod 1 is inserted into the bladder through the urethral opening. Then, the movable pull rope 8 is pulled, which moves the connecting end block 9, moves the connecting sleeve block 18 and the connecting end ring 15, and squeezes the connecting support rod 14, causing the connecting support rod 14 to bend and arch, thereby supporting the bladder, which is convenient for medical staff to operate. The overall structure is simple and the operation is convenient and quick.
[0040] The above embodiments merely illustrate specific implementations of this utility model, and their descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, but they should not be construed as limiting the scope of this utility model patent. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make several modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this utility model, and these all fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
