In particular, the term "proximal" in the present application refers to the end of the member that is adjacent to the operator; "distal" refers to the end of the member that is remote from the operator.
Referring to fig. 1 to 5, the handle bend-controlling locking mechanism of an embodiment includes a fixed shaft 40, a knob assembly 30, a limiting assembly, and an elastic member.
Specifically, the fixing shaft 40 is configured to be mounted on the handle body 10, where the handle body 10 includes a first housing 11 and a second housing 12 that are fastened together, and the first housing 11 and the second housing 12 enclose a mounting cavity 13. Further, the handle body is connected to the proximal end of the insertion tube 20, the insertion tube 20 is used to extend into the human body through a natural hole of the human body or a tiny wound on the body, the proximal end of the insertion tube 20 is connected to the handle body 10, and the distal end of the insertion tube 20 is provided with an LED, a lens, etc., so as to obtain image information in the human body.
Specifically, one end of the fixing shaft 40 is fixedly connected with the second housing 12, and the other end of the fixing shaft 40 passes through the first housing 11 and protrudes out of the installation cavity 13, so that the fixing shaft 40 forms a first section located inside the installation cavity 13 and a second section located outside the installation cavity 13.
The knob assembly 30 is movably sleeved on the second section of the fixed shaft 40 and is used for being connected with a bending control assembly, the knob assembly 30 is used for driving the bending control assembly to move, and the bending control assembly can enable the distal end of the insertion tube 20 to bend. Preferably, in one embodiment, the bending control assembly includes a wheel assembly 50 and a pull wire 80, wherein the wheel assembly 50 is rotatably sleeved on the first section of the fixed shaft 40 and connected to the knob assembly 30. One end of the stay wire 80 is connected with the wheel disc assembly 50, and the other end of the stay wire 80 is connected with the distal end of the insertion tube 20, so that the wheel disc assembly 50 is driven to rotate by the knob assembly 30, and the wheel disc assembly 50 can pull the stay wire 80 towards the direction far away from the insertion tube 20, so that the stay wire 80 pulls the distal end of the insertion tube 20 to bend and turn.
The limiting assembly is sleeved on the fixed shaft 40 and is positioned on one side of the knob assembly 30 away from the handle body 10, and at least part of the limiting assembly can move along the axial direction of the fixed shaft so that at least part of the limiting assembly presses or releases the knob assembly 30. Preferably, in one embodiment, the limiting assembly includes a first limiting member 61 and a second limiting member 62. Wherein the first limiting piece 61 is sleeved on the fixed shaft 40 and can move along the axial direction of the fixed shaft 40; the second limiting member 62 is rotatably sleeved on the fixed shaft 40, the second limiting member 62 is in contact with the first limiting member 61, and when the second limiting member 62 rotates around the fixed shaft, the second limiting member 62 drives the first limiting member 61 to move along the axial direction of the fixed shaft 40. Preferably, the second limiting member 62 is further connected to a locking knob 33, and the second limiting member 62 is conveniently rotated by the locking knob 33. It will be appreciated that there are many ways in which the stop assembly can be moved axially along the fixed shaft 40 to compress the knob assembly, and the stop assembly is not limited to the above embodiment, for example, in another embodiment, the stop assembly may be a nut, and the nut is screwed with the fixed shaft, so that by rotating the nut, the nut can be moved axially along the fixed shaft 40 to compress the knob assembly.
The elastic member is disposed in contact with the knob assembly, so that when the limiting assembly moves along the axial direction of the fixing shaft 40 to press the knob assembly 30 and the elastic member, the elastic member is deformed to generate a friction force to the knob assembly 30, and the knob assembly 30 can be locked by the friction force to prevent the knob assembly from rotating. Preferably, in one embodiment, the number of the elastic members is two, namely the first elastic member 71 and the second elastic member 72, wherein the first elastic member 71 is disposed between the first limiting member 61 and the knob assembly 30.
