Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical equipment technology, and in particular to a protective endoscope sleeve that is easy to install. Background Technology
[0002] A digestive endoscope is a medical device that enters the digestive system through natural or artificial cavities and uses miniature cameras and light sources to observe, diagnose, and treat lesions inside. Its basic principle is to use a flexible and bendable endoscope combined with optical imaging technology to allow doctors to directly visualize the inside of the digestive tract and thus discover lesions or abnormalities.
[0003] Since flexible endoscopes are precision instruments, and the CCD (an important component of the endoscope) is located at the tip, they are easily bumped and knocked during cleaning, disinfection, and transportation. The cost of repairing them can range from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of yuan, which greatly increases the cost of using the instrument. In response to this technical problem, this application proposes a protective endoscope sleeve that is easy to install. Utility Model Content

The upper side of the lower tube body can be held by hand, and then the upper tube body can be bent to increase the bending groove area, making it easier to insert the endoscope body into the lower tube body for convenient installation. The tip of the endoscope body is attached to the inner wall of the left end of the lower tube body, which can provide protection for the endoscope body and prevent damage to the tip of the endoscope body from collisions during transportation.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:
[0006] An easy-to-install protective endoscope sleeve includes a lower tube body, a connecting part fixedly connected to the top end of the lower tube body, a bending groove provided at the right end of the connecting part, an upper tube body fixedly connected to the top end of the connecting part, a locking groove provided at the right end of the upper tube body, and an endoscope body being locked into the inner wall of the locking groove.
[0007] Furthermore, a second through hole is provided at the bottom end of the lower tube body, and a first through hole is provided at the top end of the upper tube body. The second through hole and the first through hole are used for liquid flow during disinfection.
[0008] Furthermore, the tip of the endoscope body is attached to the inner wall of the left end of the lower tube, and the outer wall of the inner bend of the endoscope body is attached to the inner wall of the right end of the lower tube.
[0009] Furthermore, the lower tube, the connecting part, and the upper tube are all made of elastic soft rubber material, and the total length of the lower tube, the connecting part, and the upper tube is 15 centimeters.
[0010] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0011] In this invention, the upper side of the outer wall of the lower tube can be held by hand, and then the upper tube can be bent to increase the area of the bending groove, making it easier to insert the endoscope body into the lower tube for convenient installation.

[0017] 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.
[0018] Reference Figure 1-3 An embodiment of this utility model provides: a protective endoscope sleeve that is easy to install, including a lower tube 1, a connecting part 2 fixedly connected to the top end of the lower tube 1, a bending groove 6 opened at the right end of the connecting part 2, an upper tube 3 fixedly connected to the top end of the connecting part 2, a slot 8 opened at the right end of the upper tube 3, an endoscope body 5 is engaged in the inner wall of the slot 8, the tip of the endoscope body 5 is attached to the inner wall of the left end of the lower tube 1, and the outer wall of the inner bend of the endoscope body 5 is attached to the inner wall of the right end of the lower tube 1;
[0019] Specifically, the connecting part 2, in conjunction with the bending groove 6 on its right end, allows the upper tube 3 to bend more significantly, expanding the area of the bending groove 6. This facilitates the entry of the endoscope body 5 into the lower tube 1 through the bending groove 6, preventing damage caused by the tip of the endoscope body 5 colliding with the corner of the bending groove 6. After entering the lower tube 1, the left side of the tip of the endoscope body 5 will adhere to the inner wall of the left end of the lower tube 1, ensuring that the lens and important components at the tip are protected from direct contact with external objects. Subsequently, the upper tube 3 is released, allowing the upper tube 3 and the connecting part 2 to reset under their own elasticity. This causes the slot 8 on the upper tube 3 to contact the outer wall of the endoscope body 5, pushing the outer wall of the inner bend of the endoscope body 5 to adhere to the inner wall of the right end of the lower tube 1. This ensures that the lower tube 1 is stably fixed on the endoscope body 5 without displacement, preventing the endoscope body 5 from falling out of the bending groove 6 during transport due to the movement of the lower tube 1 on the endoscope body 5.
[0020] The lower tube 1 has a second through hole 7 at the bottom and the upper tube 3 has a first through hole 4 at the top. The second through hole 7 and the first through hole 4 are used for liquid flow during disinfection. The lower tube 1, the connecting part 2 and the upper tube 3 are all made of elastic soft rubber material. The total length of the lower tube 1, the connecting part 2 and the upper tube 3 is 15 cm.
[0021] Specifically, the protective sleeve is an integral hollow flexible tube made of elastic soft rubber. The lower tube 1, connecting part 2, and upper tube 3 are actually different areas of the flexible tube, not three parts glued together to form a tube. This prevents breakage at the connection when bending. It also has good elasticity, making it easy to install on the surface of the endoscope body 5. It can also stably limit the endoscope body 5. It is easy to manufacture and has low cost, so it can be mass-produced and used. During disinfection, the disinfectant can be directly introduced through the second through hole 7 and discharged through the first through hole 4 to directly disinfect all surfaces of the endoscope body 5. It can disinfect the endoscope body 5 at the same time while protecting it, without disassembling it and avoiding damage to the tip of the endoscope body 5 during the disinfection process.
[0022] Working principle: In actual use, first hold the upper side of the outer wall of the lower tube 1, then move the upper tube 3 so that it bends under the cooperation of the connecting part 2, expanding the area of the bending groove 6. Then insert the endoscope body 5 into the lower tube 1 through the bending groove 6, so that the tip of the endoscope body 5 is attached to the inner wall of the left end of the lower tube 1. Then release the upper tube 3 so that it returns to its original position under its own elasticity, so that the locking groove 8 is engaged with the outer wall of the endoscope body 5, and push the outer wall of the inner bend of the endoscope body 5 to fit against the inner wall of the right end of the lower tube 1. The endoscope body 5 is positioned to prevent the lower tube 1 from moving on the endoscope body 5. At this time, the lower tube 1 can provide protection for the endoscope body 5 to prevent the tip of the endoscope body 5 from being damaged by collision during transportation. During disinfection and cleaning, the disinfectant can be directly introduced into the lower tube 1 through the second through hole 7 to clean and disinfect the endoscope body 5. After cleaning, the disinfectant is discharged through the first through hole 4 on the upper tube 3, so that the endoscope body 5 can still be disinfected and cleaned normally while providing protection.
[0023] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
