Detailed Description
In order to make the technical problem, technical solution and advantageous effects to be solved by the present invention more clearly understood, the following description is made in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments to explain the present invention in further detail. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are for purposes of illustration only and are not intended to limit the invention.
Example one
Referring to fig. 1 and 2, the confocal endoscope probe with reliable connection disclosed in this embodiment includes an optical fiber bundle 13 and a sleeve 14 disposed around the optical fiber bundle 13, where the sleeve 14 protects the optical fiber bundle 13 inside, so that the optical fiber bundle 13 is not easily broken, scratched or corroded. One end of the optical fiber bundle 13 is exposed outside the sleeve 14 and is sleeved with the ferrule 12, one side of the ferrule 12 far away from the sleeve 14 is sleeved with the lens barrel 11, and the objective lens 110 is installed in the lens barrel 11. The lens barrel 11 and the ferrule 12 are made of stainless steel material to protect the objective lens 110 and the optical fiber bundle 13 inside.
A stepped hole penetrates through the ferrule 12 along the axial direction of the ferrule, the stepped hole comprises a large-diameter hole 124 and a small-diameter hole 122, and one end of the sleeve 14 close to the optical fiber bundle 13 is inserted in the large-diameter hole 124; the bare end of the optical fiber bundle 13 is inserted into the small-diameter hole 122, and the end surface of the bare end is flush with the end surface of the ferrule 12 near the end of the lens barrel 11 so as to couple with the objective lens 110 in the lens barrel 11.
The insertion gap between the insertion core 12 and the lens barrel 11 and the stepped hole are filled with glue. The opening diameter of the large-diameter hole 124 is larger than the outer diameter of the sleeve 14, so that glue is filled between the inner wall of the large-diameter hole 124 and the outer wall of the sleeve 14 to form the bonding layer 16, most of the bonding layer 16 is located in the large-diameter hole 124, and the small part of the bonding layer is located outside the large-diameter hole 124. The sleeve pipe 14 is inserted in the large-diameter hole 124, and due to the fact that the cavity of the large-diameter hole 124 is long and thin, a distance exists between the inner wall of the large-diameter hole 124 and the outer wall of the sleeve pipe 14, the contact length of the bonding layer 16 formed by glue is long, bonding strength is high, and due to the fact that the bonding layer 16 is mostly located inside the large-diameter hole 124, the possibility of corrosion of the external environment and disinfectant is reduced, and the situation that bonding force is reduced is not prone to occurring. The optical fiber bundle 13 in the small-diameter hole 122 is fixed in the ferrule 12 by glue. On the premise that the biocompatibility meets the requirement, materials with more excellent surface adhesion performance, such as PA, PU and the like, are used for manufacturing the sleeve 14, so that the adhesion between the ferrule 12 and the sleeve 14 can be further enhanced.
The end of the ferrule 12 close to the sleeve 14 is provided with a chamfer 123, and the adhesive layer 16 outside the large-diameter hole 124 is in a slope shape to connect the ferrule 12 and the sleeve 14, so that the connection strength between the ferrule 12 and the sleeve 14 is enhanced. In the use process of the confocal endoscope probe, the objective lens 110 needs to enter human tissues for observation through one forceps channel 2, in the observation process and after the observation is finished, the sleeve 14 needs to be pulled frequently to change the observation field of view or drive the objective lens 110 to leave so as to finish the observation, at this time, the insertion core 12 is easy to scratch and rub with the forceps channel 2 port, and the chamfer 123 and the slope-shaped bonding layer 16 arranged at the end part of the insertion core 12 enable the end part of the insertion core 12 to be smoother so as to reduce the resistance in pulling.
The lens barrel 11 is provided with a core hole 111 at one end close to the ferrule 12, the ferrule 12 comprises a wide part 120 and a narrow part 121 which are integrally formed, the wide part 120 faces the sleeve 14, the narrow part 121 faces the lens barrel 11 to be in plug fit with the core hole 111, and the narrow part 121 of the ferrule 12 is longer than the opening length of the core hole 111, so that glue forms a thicker connecting layer 15 between the lens barrel 11 and the wide part 120 of the ferrule 12. Because the connecting seam between the lens barrel 11 and the ferrule 12 is long and a thick connecting layer 15 is formed between the end surfaces of the two, the connecting strength between the lens barrel 11 and the ferrule 12 is increased, and the connecting strength is enough to bear the friction force generated when the lens barrel 11 slides in the clamping way 2.
Example two
Referring to fig. 3, the difference from the first embodiment is that an external thread 125 is disposed around the narrow portion 121 of the ferrule 12, an internal thread 112 is disposed in the core hole 111, and the ferrule 12 is inserted into the core hole 111 and is screwed with the lens barrel 11, so as to further enhance the stability of connection between the lens barrel 11 and the ferrule 12.
EXAMPLE III
Referring to fig. 4, the difference from the first embodiment is that the outer diameter of the ferrule 12 is smaller than the outer diameter of the lens barrel 11, one end of the lens barrel 11 close to the ferrule 12 is provided with a round narrow end, the outer diameter of the round narrow end of the lens barrel 11 is equal to the outer diameter of the ferrule 12, and the round narrow end makes the whole lens barrel 11 in a step shape. The wide portion 12 of the ferrule 12 is sleeved with a heat shrink tube 17, one end of the heat shrink tube 17 wraps the round narrow end of the lens barrel 11, and the other end wraps the periphery of the sleeve 14. One end of the ferrule 12 close to the sleeve 14 is a right angle, the adhesive layer 16 located outside the large-diameter hole 124 is in a slope shape to connect the ferrule 12 and the sleeve 14, and the heat shrink tube 17 is provided with a transition inclination angle 171 at the connection position of the ferrule 12 and the sleeve 14. The transition inclination angle 171 makes the heat shrinkable tube 17 more closely fit to the adhesive layer 16 outside the large diameter hole 124, so that the end portion of the heat shrinkable tube 17 near the sleeve 14 can better fit to the peripheral side of the sleeve 14. The narrow end makes the heat shrinkable tube 17 more smoothly wrap around the lens barrel 11 and the ferrule 12, and the heat shrinkable tube can smoothly enter and exit the clamp path 2.
Example four
Referring to fig. 5, the difference from the third embodiment is that an external thread 125 is arranged on the periphery of the narrow portion 121 of the ferrule 12, an internal thread 112 is arranged in the core hole 111, and the ferrule 12 is inserted into the core hole 111 and is in threaded connection with the lens barrel 11, so that the stability of connection between the lens barrel 11 and the ferrule 12 is further enhanced.
