If there is a description of the first, the second, it is only used for distinguishing technical features for the purpose, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of indicated technical features or implicitly indicating the sequence of indicated technical features.

[0020] In the description of the present utility model, unless otherwise explicitly limited, the words of setting, installation, connection, etc. should be understood broadly, and the person skilled in the art can reasonably determine the specific meaning of the above words in the present utility model according to the specific content of the technical scheme.

[0021] Reference Figure 1The utility model embodiment provides a kind of endoscope with wireless charging function, including operating handle 100, base 200 and display module (not shown in drawing), base 200 is connected with operating handle 100 and display module respectively, and operating handle 100 is provided with charging receiving module 110;Base 200, base 200 is provided with charging part 210 and fixed part 220, charging part 210 is connected with fixed part 220, base 200 is provided with charging emission module 230, for the charging receiving module 110 of operating handle 100 is wirelessly charged, when charging emission module 230 and charging receiving module 110 are close, base 200 charges operating handle 100, and fixed part 220 is used to support and position operating handle 100.

[0022] It should be noted that the charging emission module 230 provided by the base 200 and the charging receiving module 110 provided by the operating handle 100 realize the immediate charging of the operating handle 100 without the need for plugging in a charger or other operations, thereby improving the convenience and service life of the operating handle 100. When the operator uses the endoscope, the endoscope can be taken out and placed in the vertical and horizontal directions under the action of the fixed support 221 provided by the base 200; when the endoscope is placed, the operating handle 100 only needs to be placed back to the base 200 for fixation, and charging can be automatically started, ensuring sufficient power for the next use.

[0023] Further, the endoscope of the present embodiment adopts wireless charging, avoiding the cumbersome steps of finding a charging cable, aligning the socket and repeatedly plugging in and out. It also reduces the exposed electrical contacts of the endoscope, reducing the risk of short circuit or corrosion caused by liquid (such as disinfectant, blood) infiltration, suitable for environments where medical equipment needs to be frequently cleaned and disinfected. In addition, the charging emission module 230 of the base 200 and the charging receiving module 110 of the operating handle 100 are fixed in position, which can ensure the stability and consistency of the endoscope charging contact each time, avoiding charging interruption caused by loose plug.

[0024] For example, the operating handle 100 can be provided with an LED indicator light for clearly displaying the charging status of the endoscope, such as charging, full charge and failure, etc. Those skilled in the art can understand that the base 200 can also integrate a wireless data interface (such as WiFi / Bluetooth) to automatically backup the inspection data of the endoscope or update the system firmware when charging the endoscope through the base 200.

[0025] The base 200 is provided with a conversion interface 250 for connecting the base 200 with the display module and supplying power to the base 200.

[0026] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the wireless data interface provided in the base 200 receives the image signal collected by the operating handle, and sends the image signal to the display module for display via the adapter 250. This allows the operator to move and manipulate the operating handle 100 more freely during surgery or examination. Furthermore, since the adapter 250 is connected to the display module, it can provide power to the base 200 in real time during the display module's startup. After the operating handle 100 is used, it can be placed back into the base 200, enabling the base to wirelessly charge the operating handle 100.

[0027] Those skilled in the art will understand that the base 200 can also be paired with multiple charging handles 100 to complete examinations for different patients. The adapter 250 on the base 200 can be adapted to different types of external power sources, such as mains power and power banks, facilitating the use of the endoscope in different environments. Whether in a fixed examination room in a hospital or in mobile scenarios such as outreach medical services, the operating handle 100 can be charged with a suitable power source.

[0028] Reference Figure 2 The fixing part 220 is provided with a fixing bracket 221, which is connected to the charging part 210. The fixing bracket 221 has a first extension 2211 and a second extension 2212 on both sides. The first extension 2211 and the second extension 2212 are used to fix the operating handle 100 in the vertical direction.

[0029] It should be noted that, thanks to the first extension 2211 and the second extension 2212 of the fixing bracket 221, the operating handle 100 can be quickly placed into the base 200 after use without precise aiming or additional locking, thus guiding and positioning the operating handle 100. Since the fixing bracket 221 ensures that the operating handle 100 is placed in the exact same position after each use, the charging receiver module 110 on the operating handle 100 can achieve precise and stable contact with the charging transmitter module 230 of the base 200.

[0030] Reference Figure 2 The first extension 2211 is provided with a first limiting protrusion 2213, and the second extension 2212 is provided with a second limiting protrusion 2214. The first limiting protrusion 2213 and the second limiting protrusion 2214 are horizontally aligned and are used to fix the operating handle 100 in the horizontal direction.

[0031] It should be noted that the first limiting protrusion 2213 and the second limiting protrusion 2214 ensure that the position of the operating handle 100 on the fixed bracket 221 is accurate, avoiding any impact on the efficiency and stability of wireless charging due to positional deviation. For example, when the operating handle 100 is placed on the fixed bracket 221, the first limiting protrusion 2213 and the second limiting protrusion 2214 accurately limit the horizontal position of the handle, ensuring precise alignment between the charging receiver module 110 of the operating handle 100 and the charging transmitter module 230 on the fixed bracket 221. This guarantees that the wireless charging process can proceed smoothly and effectively reduces the occurrence of problems such as charging interruptions or slowed charging speeds.

[0032] Furthermore, an opening is provided between the first extension 2211 and the second extension 2212 for the operation handle 100 to be placed horizontally. When the operation handle 100 is placed horizontally, the operation handle 100 can be placed into the fixing bracket 221 through the opening, and then the operation handle 100 can be rotated to put the operation handle 100 into the base 200, ensuring that the charging receiving module 110 and the charging transmitting module 230 are accurately aligned, thereby completing the fixing and charging of the operation handle 100.

[0033] Reference Figure 2 A first interval 240 is provided between the first extension 2211 and the second extension 2212 and the base 200.

[0034] It should be noted that during the wireless charging process of the operating handle 100, because the fixed bracket 221 needs to be tightly connected to the operating handle 100, the heat generated by the charging receiving module 110 and the charging transmitting module 230 during operation cannot be effectively dissipated. Therefore, in this embodiment, a first gap 240 is provided between the first extension 2211 and the second extension 2212 and the base 200, so that a relatively independent air circulation channel is formed between the operating handle 100 and the base 200. During the charging process of the operating handle 100 by the base 200, the operating handle 100 generates heat. Air can flow in this gap, carrying away the heat from the surface of the handle, thereby achieving a heat dissipation effect. This natural convection method can effectively reduce the temperature of the handle and avoid affecting the performance and lifespan of the handle due to overheating.

[0035] The first extension 2211 and the first limiting protrusion 2213, and the second extension 2212 and the second limiting protrusion 2214, respectively smoothly transition to form an upward-facing pick-up and put-out opening 270, which is used to cover the bottom of the operating handle.

[0036] It should be noted that the smooth transition of the first extension 2211, the first limiting protrusion 2213, the second extension 2212, and the second limiting protrusion 2214 forms an upward-facing pick-and-place opening 270. The operating handle 100 is vertically removed through this opening, thus achieving both ease of removal and reliable storage. This allows the operating handle 100 to be quickly and intuitively picked up and placed vertically, while the first and second limiting protrusions 2213 and 2214 ensure the operating handle 100 is firmly restrained horizontally, effectively preventing accidental slippage. Furthermore, the smooth transition design also provides guidance and cushioning, reducing impact and wear on the base 200 during the removal and placement of the charging handle 100.

[0037] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 The operating handle 100 is provided with a detection part 120 and a hand-held part 130. The detection part 120 is connected to the hand-held part 130. The hand-held part 130 is provided with a first curved surface 131 that conforms to the inner surface of the first extension 2211 and the first limiting protrusion 2213, and a second curved surface 132 that conforms to the inner surface of the second extension 2212 and the second limiting protrusion 2214.

[0038] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, by providing a first curved surface 131 and a second curved surface 132 on the handheld portion 130 of the operating handle 100, a large-area surface contact is formed between the operating handle 100 and the base 200. This distributes the force of the operating handle 100 in all directions across the inner surfaces of the first extension 2211, the first protrusion, the second extension 2212, and the second protrusion, further reducing the likelihood of the operating handle 100 wobbling. Furthermore, the design of the first curved surface 131 and the second curved surface 132 has a guiding function. When placing the handle, as long as the operating handle 100 and the base 200 are approximately aligned, the first curved surface 131, the second curved surface 132, the first extension 2211, and the second extension 2212 will automatically guide the operating handle 100 into the only correct position, thereby greatly reducing the difficulty of placing the operating handle 100.

[0039] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 The handheld part 130 is also equipped with multiple operation buttons 133. It should be noted that because the handheld part 130 of the operating handle 100 is equipped with multiple operation buttons 133, when the doctor is observing the screen and performing fine operations, he can directly operate the buttons on the operating handle 100 by touch (such as taking pictures, recording videos, switching light source modes, rinsing / ventilating, etc.).

[0040] Reference Figure 5 and Figure 6The operating handle 100 is provided with a fixing socket 140 on the side near the base 200. The fixing socket 140 is used to assist in positioning the operating handle 100.

[0041] It should be noted that the fixed socket 140 is used to achieve auxiliary positioning and stable connection between the operating handle 100 and the base 200. This not only ensures that the operating handle 100 can accurately return to its original position each time, effectively enhancing the anti-shaking and anti-torsion capabilities when the operating handle 100 is connected to the base 200, but also further improves the connection reliability and ease of operation when the operating handle 100 is charged via the base 200.

[0042] Reference Figure 7 The base 200 has multiple heat dissipation slots 260 on the side away from the operating handle 100. It should be noted that the charging transmitter module 230 inside the base 200 is the main heat source. If the heat generated when charging the charging handle cannot be dissipated in time, the charging transmitter module 230 will operate at high temperatures for extended periods, accelerating its aging and shortening the lifespan of the base 200. Therefore, this embodiment significantly reduces the operating temperature of the base 200 by providing multiple heat dissipation slots 260 on the side of the base 200 away from the operating handle 100, thus effectively dissipating the heat generated by the charging transmitter module 230 during operation.
