Description

Endoscope insertion apparatus having buckling prevention}

The present invention relates to an anti-buckling endoscope insertion device, and more particularly, to an anti-buckling endoscope insertion device that is inserted while preventing buckling when the endoscope is inserted.

When the endoscope is inserted into the human body, in order to implement the movement as intended, it is necessary to operate the endoscope so that buckling does not occur when the endoscope is inserted. If buckling occurs in the endoscope, the endoscope cannot be moved as intended. For example, when buckling occurs at the center of the endoscope while the user moves the endoscope toward (or forward of) the human body, the endoscope does not move forward and only deforms. Therefore, there is a need for a technique capable of effectively preventing buckling of the endoscope.

The guide is moved in a horizontal direction along the guide part 112 . Therefore, the link coupling part is alternately guiding and coupled to the upper horizontal movement guide part and the lower horizontal movement guide part. In this way, the width between the plurality of link parts 211, ..., 219 may be uniformly widened or narrowed by moving the link coupling part along each of the horizontal movement guide parts divided up and down. However, as described above, the first, ..., and eight link coupling parts 221, ..., 228 are the upper horizontal movement guide part 111 formed on the upper side along the longitudinal direction and the lower horizontal movement guide formed on the lower side. It may be guided in the horizontal direction along the portion 112, or in another embodiment, may be guided in the horizontal direction along one horizontal movement guide portion formed in the center along the longitudinal direction.

Therefore, when the endoscope movable body 310 moves horizontally toward the human body, the width between each link of the equal link 210 is kept constant and narrowed, so that the endoscope 12 is prevented from buckling and the endoscope into the human body ( 12) can be inserted.

Meanwhile, the buckling of the endoscope 12 may be prevented by the plurality of endoscope insertion parts 230 as well.

The endoscope 12 is inserted into the plurality of endoscope insertion parts 230 and is moved in a horizontal direction in conjunction with the horizontal movement of the equal link part 210, so that the first,... ., 4 The distance between the endoscope insertion parts 231, ..., 234 is evenly narrowed or widened.

First,... ., 4 The endoscope insertion parts 231, ..., 234 are formed in a conical shape to prevent buckling while the endoscope 12 is inserted into the inside. However, the first... ., 4 The shape of the endoscope insertion parts 231, ..., 234 may be modified into various shapes capable of preventing buckling.

The plurality of interlocking coupling parts 240 couple the link part and the endoscope insertion part so that when the link part moves horizontally to one side, the endoscope insertion part moves horizontally in the same direction.

2 and 3, one side of the first interlocking coupling part 241 is coupled to the center of the third link part 213, and the other side of the first interlocking coupling part 241 is the first endoscope insertion unit (231) is coupled to one side. One side of the second interlocking coupling unit 242 is coupled to the center of the fifth link unit 215, and the other side of the second interlocking coupling unit 242 is coupled to one side of the second endoscope insertion unit 232. One side of the third interlocking coupling unit 243 is coupled to the center of the seventh link unit 217, and the other side of the third interlocking coupling unit 243 is coupled to one side of the third endoscope insertion unit 233. One side of the fourth interlocking coupling unit 244 is coupled to the center of the ninth link unit 219, and the other side of the fourth interlocking coupling unit 244 is coupled to one side of the fourth endoscope insertion unit 234.

Accordingly, one side of the plurality of interlocking coupling parts 240 is coupled to the center of the third, fifth, seventh, and ninth link parts 213, 215, 217, and 219 while crossing the fourth, sixth, and eighth link parts 214, 216, and 218.

The endoscope moving unit 300 according to an embodiment of the present invention includes an endoscope moving body 310, a force transmission link unit 320, and a surgical tool insertion unit 330.

The endoscope moving body 310 moves in the horizontal direction according to the driving of the second driving unit 430 . One side of the endoscope 12 is fixed to the endoscope moving body 310 . Therefore, when the endoscope moving body 310 moves in the horizontal direction, the endoscope 12 also moves horizontally in the same direction.

The power transmission link unit 320 moves in the horizontal direction together with the endoscope moving body 310 according to the driving of the second driving unit 430 . In addition, one side of the force transmission link unit 320 is linked to the first link unit 211 .

Therefore, as shown in FIG. 6 , when the endoscope moving body 310 and the power transmission link 320 move in the horizontal direction according to the driving of the second driving unit 430, force is applied to the first link unit 211. While being transmitted, the equal link part 210 moves horizontally in the force direction, and the plurality of endoscope insertion parts 230 move in the horizontal direction in conjunction with each other. At this time, the distance between each link part and the endoscope insertion part is evenly narrowed. At the same time, the endoscope 12 inserted into each endoscope insertion part moves toward the human body.

The surgical tool insertion unit 30 is formed and disposed on the endoscope moving body 310, and a surgical tool (such as an endoscope or a basket) inserted into the endoscope 12 is inserted. The inserted surgical instrument can be operated independently.

The driving unit 400 according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a first driving unit 420 and a second driving unit 430 . Each of the driving units 420 and 430 may be embodied as a linear screw and operate independently.

On the other hand, as an example of an operation for moving the guide sheath 11 and the endoscope 12 toward the human body during surgery, first, the guide sheath moving body 110 is horizontally moved toward the human body according to the driving of the first driving unit 420 When this is done, the guide sheath movable body 110 horizontally moves toward the human body in a relative motion with respect to the endoscope movable body 310 . Accordingly, the guide sheath 11 can be inserted into the human body. At this time, the width between the links of the equal link part 210 is equally widened, and the width between the plurality of endoscope insertion parts 230 is also equally widened. Meanwhile, the relative movement means that the endoscope moving body 310 can also move when the guide sheath moving body 110 moves. That is, the distance between the link and the endoscope insertion unit is adjusted according to the relative motion between them.

After the guide sheath 11 moves toward the human body, when the endoscope movable body 310 is horizontally moved toward the human body according to the driving of the second driving unit 430, the endoscope moves relative to the guide sheath movable body 110. The body part 310 moves horizontally toward the human body. Accordingly, the endoscope 12 can be inserted into the human body. At this time, the width between the links of the equal link unit 210 is uniformly narrowed, and the width between the plurality of endoscope insertion units 230 is equally narrowed. Meanwhile, the relative motion means that the guide sheath movable body 110 can also move when the endoscope movable body 310 moves. That is, the distance between the link and the endoscope insertion unit is adjusted according to the relative motion between them.
