Problem
Existing laparoscopic surgery devices are cumbersome and prone to air pressure instability due to complex structures and poor connection airtightness, leading to inefficient smoke removal and potential bacterial cross-infection during surgeries.
Innovation Solution
An integrated intracavity gas circulation treatment device with a compact structure, where a filtering unit and driving pump unit are integrated, allowing for simplified operation and ensuring stable air pressure, with a filtering unit that includes a filter element and a driving pump unit with a sealing mechanism for effective smoke extraction and filtration.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If multiple filtering parts and driving parts are connected by connecting pipes, then the device can perform filtration and pumping functions, but the connection airtightness deteriorates and the structure becomes complicated
Solution Approach 1:
The patent integrates the driving pump unit directly within the filtering unit housing, eliminating the need for external connecting pipes between these components. This merging of functions into a single integrated device maintains connection airtightness while simplifying the overall structure.
Solution Approach 2:
The driving pump unit is nested inside the filtering unit housing, with the pump chamber formed within the same housing that contains the filtering chamber. This nesting arrangement eliminates external connections while maintaining functional separation through internal partitions.
2Ease of operation
If multiple filtering parts and driving parts are connected by connecting pipes, then the device can perform filtration and pumping functions, but the overall volume increases and operation becomes inconvenient
Solution Approach 1:
By combining the filtering unit and driving pump unit into a single integrated device with a unified housing, the overall volume is reduced compared to separate components connected by pipes. The integrated design also simplifies operation by eliminating multiple connection points and reducing the number of components the operator must manage.
3Reliability
If multiple filtering parts and driving parts are repeatedly used through connecting pipes, then the device can be reused, but bacterial cross-infection risk increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent designs the integrated intracavity gas circulation treatment device as a disposable single-use item. The housing, filtering unit, and driving pump unit are all configured for one-time use and then discarded, eliminating the risk of bacterial cross-infection from repeated use while maintaining high surgery efficiency through ready-to-use sterile devices.
