Description

A kind of capsule endoscope magnetic and the bionical double-drive device of the awn of wheat
Technical field
The invention belongs to the field of medical instrument technology, in particular to a kind of capsule endoscope magnetic and the bionical double drive of the awn of wheat fill It sets.
Background technique
From after the appearance of 1997 gracilistylus capsule scopes, because of it with inspection convenience, hurtless measure, without conducting wire, no pain, without intersection Infection, extends the advantages that visual field of digestive tract examining at the normal work for not influencing patient, becomes digestive tract examining especially intestines The prefered method of road inspection overcomes poor resistance possessed by traditional plug-in type scope, is not suitable for old and frail and disease The defects of feelings are critical.But since capsule mirror is that nature is swallowed, and is promoted in gastrointestinal tract by peristalsis, and from swallowing And image is transmitted with the speed of 14 frame per second, capsule endoscope under the push-and-pull of peristaltic wave helically advance by formula, and capsule passes after 8 hours Defeated image is more than 57000 frames.On the one hand, containing a large amount of invalid, multiimages, the working efficiency of capsule endoscope in shooting in 8 hours It is low;On the other hand, a large amount of diagosis amounts bring great challenge to medical personnel and difficulty is quite big;In addition to this, capsule endoscope one As power-on time be 8 hours or so, for some patients due to gastrointestinal motility disorder, emptying slowly, may when being expert to lower intestinal tract It will appear the case where low battery can not check.
Capsule mirror is many kinds of at present, and function is huge.Wherein, magnetic control capsule endoscope can help to realize capsule mirror in vivo Precise positioning, but it is slow not can solve capsule mirror forward speed because of caused by way moving caused by intestines peristalsis wave, shooting Low efficiency it is at all out of question.
Summary of the invention
In order to overcome the disadvantages of the above prior art, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a kind of capsule endoscope magnetic and the awn of wheats Bionical double-drive device can shorten the single review time of capsule endoscope, improve the validity of capsule endoscope picture, mitigate medical matters Capsule mirror is effectively reduced since low battery can not check the incidence of event in the workload of worker.
To achieve the goals above, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is that:
A kind of capsule endoscope magnetic and the bionical double-drive device of the awn of wheat, including capsule mirror body 2, which is characterized in that in capsule It is cased with the magnetic carrier rings 3 of tool outside mirror body 2, is provided with several cercus 1 in carrier rings 3, the cercus 1 is in carrier rings 3 On, the axis along carrier rings 3 forms gather effect, gathers lead of the head end towards capsule mirror body 2, thus in traction opposite direction Upper formation resistance, is provided with the nested capsule 4 easily dissolved by gastric juice outside the carrier rings 3, nested capsule 4 by capsule mirror body 2, carry In body ring 3 and all cercus 1 are all coated on.
The size of device are as follows: remove length 20-28mm, diameter 12-20mm before nested capsule 4;It is long after the nested capsule 4 of removal 18-26mm, diameter 13-30mm are spent, cercus is no longer attached at capsule mirror surface at this time, forms certain angle with capsule mirror body.
The nesting capsule 4 is dissolved through gastric acid under one's belt, and cercus 1 is unfolded.
The cercus 1 has the physical structure of the imitative awn of wheat, is uniformly alternately arranged.
The cercus 1 has the material of certain flexibility, acid-alkali-corrosive-resisting to be made by the natural awn of wheat, bristles, horse-hair etc., head Blunt circle, long 5-7mm, avoids damage to intestinal mucosa.
The carrier rings 3 are fixed on 2 surface of capsule mirror body, drive capsule mirror body 2 to move together by external magnetic patch traction, The front-end and back-end of the capsule mirror body 2 are not covered by carrier rings 3, to guarantee shooting effect.
The nesting capsule 4 is made of the gastric-soluble material such as sugar-coat, ice film.
Compared with prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:
1. cercus simulates awn of wheat physical structure, enough resistances are provided for retroversion of the capsule mirror in small intestine, can obviously be contracted The review time of short single capsule mirror reduces the shooting for repeating photo, improves the working efficiency of capsule enteroscope.
2. the cercus of capsule mirror is triggered through gastric acid under one's belt, avoid patient's from swallowing discomfort.
3. carrier rings can be won, check protheca in capsule mirror surface, operating aspect.
4. carrier rings are made of magnetic material, the outer magnetic patch of abdomen is mobile when inspection, is the advance of capsule mirror together with the awn of wheat Combined power is provided.
Detailed description of the invention
Fig. 1 is overall structure diagram of the invention.
Fig. 2 is that the present invention removes the structural schematic diagram after nested capsule.
Fig. 3 is carrier rings and cercus schematic diagram.
Specific embodiment
The embodiment that the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples.
As shown in Figure 1, Figure 2 and Figure 3, a kind of capsule endoscope magnetic and the bionical double-drive device of the awn of wheat, including capsule mirror body 2, the magnetic carrier rings 3 of tool are fixed in its side of 2 outer of capsule mirror body, carrier rings 3 can be made of soft magnetic materials, by External magnetic patch traction drives capsule mirror body 2 to move together.Carrier rings 3 are tubular structure, front and back opening, to guarantee to expose capsule The shooting end of mirror body 2 does not influence it and shoots image.
It is provided with several cercus 1 in carrier rings 3, cercus 1 has certain flexibility, acidproof by the natural awn of wheat, bristles, horse-hair etc. The material of caustic corrosion is made, head blunt circle, long 5-7mm, can avoid damage intestinal mucosa.
Cercus 1 is uniformly arranged alternately in carrier rings 3, and the axis along carrier rings 3 forms gather effect, has the object of the imitative awn of wheat Structure is managed, lead of the head end towards capsule mirror body 2 is gathered, dissipates traction opposite direction of the tail end towards capsule mirror body 2, thus Resistance is formed in the reverse direction.
Nested capsule 4 is provided with outside carrier rings 3, nested capsule 4 is complete by capsule mirror body 2, carrier rings 3 and all cercus 1 In portion is coated on, nested capsule 4 is easily made by the material that gastric juice dissolves of sugar-coat, ice film etc., dissolves under one's belt through gastric acid, cercus 1 can unfold.
The size of device are as follows: remove length 20-28mm, diameter 12-20mm before nested capsule 4;It is long after the nested capsule 4 of removal 18-26mm, diameter 13-30mm are spent, cercus is no longer attached at capsule mirror surface at this time, forms certain angle with capsule mirror body.
The application method of the present apparatus:
Patient swallows before inspection,
Cercus 1 is incorporated in gastric-soluble nested capsule 4 before swallowing, and releases dysphagia problem, and is gulped down After pharynx, nested capsule 4 is dissolved by gastric acid, and cercus 1 is unfolded.
It is mobile in leading a magnetic patch outside abdomen, so that power is provided by the movement that carrier rings 3 are glue capsule mirror body 2, meanwhile, it imitates The cercus 1 of awn of wheat structure also has certain tractive force along its gathered ends under enterogastric peristalsis, to form hybrid power, and anti- There is larger resistance on direction, can prevent capsule mirror body 2 from retreating with the wriggling of stomach.
After inspection, excreted in 24-72 hours.
