Definitions
- the invention relates to an endoscope referred to in the preamble of claim 1 and a method for its production and a loop member for the endoscope.
- endoscopes In addition to rigid, mostly surrounded by metal tubes endoscopes, such as. are used in urology and laparoscopy, generic endoscopes are known which have rigid and flexible portions which adjoin one another. Even endoscopes, which are often referred to as being completely flexible, such as e.g. those for intestinal examinations are rigid at least at their proximal handling part and there have a transition from a flexible to a rigid section. It is not only in endoscopes for industrial applications, but especially in medical endoscopes, the outer sealing of the endoscope of crucial importance.
- the outer seal is particularly important when the endoscope is to be processed.
- treatment is meant cleaning and sterilization, ie work using liquids and e.g.
- CONFIRMATION COPY also superheated steam, from which the complicated inner life of the endoscope with its optical and electronic components is to be protected.
- Flexible sections of endoscopes usually have inside a stiffening framework, which consists of articulated parts or from schraubenfe- such elements. On the outside, this flexible section is always surrounded by an elastic hose that ensures the fluid seal.
- the problem is the sealing of the ends of the tube, which usually takes place by sliding over and radial jamming on the rigid section.
- the entire problem of sealing shifts to the correct effect of the clamping device.
- a known solution is to bind the pushed onto the rigid section hose with a thin plastic thread, similar to a fishing line, which is taut and knotted with the ends.
- the clamping device is finally completed by a cover by means of an adhesive material, a paint or with an adhesive tape.
- This construction provides good results for the user, but has disadvantages in the production.
- a machine production of the clamping device is not possible. It can only be made by persons with very skilled fingers. This results in high production costs.
- the object of the present invention is to make an endoscope of the type mentioned at low cost with high security. This object is achieved with the features of the characterizing part of claim 1 and by a method according to claim 6 and a loop member according to claim 9.
- the invention uses a metallic loop member in which turns are welded. Such a clamping device can be attached by machine with a low error rate. This reduces costs and increases reliability, in particular patient safety in the case of medical use.
- an eyelet is provided at the end of the loop member.
- the loop member is formed as a flat band. This allows for a small thickness high strength and on the width of the flat strip easy and secure welding. In addition, the flat design reduces the risk of injury.
- the ribbon in the eyelet is advantageous widened according to claim 4, the ribbon in the eyelet. This gives a high edge strength for the eyelet and the possibility to weld the flat strip returning there after the hose has been looped over the eyelet, wherein the widened area protects the hose against the effects of the welding process.
- the loop member is formed as a wire.
- advantageous embodiments of the clamping device can be created, which have no sharp-edged areas and are securely welded without damaging the hose.
- the production of the endoscope is advantageously carried out with the feature of one of claims 6 to 8.
- Claim 9 provides an inventive loop member under protection.
- Fig. 1 is a side view of an endoscope according to the invention with two
- FIG. 2 shows an enlarged section through the endoscope of FIG. 1 in the region of a clamping device with a loop member
- FIG. 3 shows a loop member of another embodiment in the formation of a loop
- Fig. 5 is a greatly enlarged side view of the endoscope of Fig. 1 in
- the illustrated endoscope 1 shows in side view a longitudinal section of a shaft of an endoscope 1.
- the proximal connection and handling part and also the distal end part have been omitted for the sake of simplicity.
- the illustrated endoscope 1 may be a technical or a medical endoscope, which can accommodate image conductors, electrical conductors, gas and / or fluid channels and other devices in its interior, not shown.
- the endoscope 1 consists of three sections, namely a rigid section 2 and a further rigid section 3. These can both be formed on their outer side shown, for example, as a steel tube.
- a flexible section 4 is arranged between the two rigid sections 2 and 3, a flexible section 4 is arranged.
- the flexible portion 4 is formed on its outer side by an elastic tube, which allows bending of the flexible portion 4, as they are indicated by the second bending position shown in dashed lines in Fig. 1.
- FIG. 2 shows an enlarged section through the construction shown in Fig. 1 in the region of the rigid portion 2 lying out clamping device.
- Fig. 2 shows the rigid portion 2, which is formed as a metal tube, in which the flexible portion 4 towards lying end portion 6 is reduced in diameter. Of the flexible portion 4 only the elastic hose is shown here. The entire interior of the flexible section 4 is omitted. The tube is pushed over the rigid portion 2, through its reduced end portion 6, resulting in a smooth transition on the outside between the tube 4 and the rigid portion 2.
- the clamping device In the end region of the tube 4, in which this sits on the reduced end portion 6 of the rigid portion 2, the clamping device is placed outside the tube 4, which is shown in Fig. 2 schematically as a circumferential, band-shaped loop member 5.
- the loop member 5 is stretched with force around the elastic tube 4 and presses, as shown in FIG. 2, in the surface thereof, thus to ensure a long-lasting clamping tension between the inside of the tube 4 and the outside of the rigid portion 2 in the end region 6 , This results in a good sealing effect due to the elastic material formation of the tube 4.
- Figs. 3 and 4 show a first specific embodiment of the clamping device.
- the loop member is formed as a flat band 7 made of metal, which has an eyelet 9 at one end in a widened region 8.
- Fig. 3 can be installed on one of the two shown in Fig. 1 laying of the clamping device.
- the ribbon 7 is wrapped around the tube 4 and inserted through the eyelet 9.
- the loop shown in Fig. 3 is tightened around the tube 4 until it firmly surrounds it in the end position in the manner shown in FIG. 2.
- the first turn is shown in FIG.
- the flat strip 7 drawn in the direction of the arrow through the eyelet 9 is wound over the hose of the flexible section 4 one above the other in a second and third turn.
- the third turn ends at the line 10 of Fig. 4.
- the tape is pulled tight until it, as Fig. 2 indicates, rests with high force.
- the attachment is carried out by welding different turns of the flat strip 7, which consists of suitable, well weldable metal.
- Fig. 4 shows a weld 1 1, for example, is pulled across the outermost turn of the metal strip 7 to the subsequent widened area 8.
- the weld 1 1 thus connects the first with the third turn. It can also be welded through here, so that all turns are strig together.
- the weld seam 11 can easily be pulled laterally beyond the belt 7 onto the widened region 8, without the material of the hose 4 being damaged.
- Fig. 5 shows an alternative embodiment of the clamping device, and in turn at the point of jamming of the elastic tube 4 on the rigid portion 2, which may be formed here in section as well, as shown in FIG. 2.
- the clamping device is designed differently than in FIGS. 3 and 4, where the loop member of the clamping device is designed as a flat band 7.
- the looping member is formed of a metal wire 12.
- a plurality of turns of the metal wire 12 are wound side by side in the embodiment of FIG. In the illustrated embodiment of Fig. 5, these are 4 turns.
- the metal wire As shown in Fig. 5, several times wrapped around the tube 4 and tightened with high force, which also shows the Fig. 5 based on the action of the tube 4.
- the metal wire 12 is then held in the tightly wound position and secured by welding. This takes place, as shown in Fig. 5.
- a weld seam 1 1 are always arranged between two turns. In total, there are four welds. These are located on a relatively short circumferential area along the line of contact between each two winches. fertilize arranged. If the windings are wound sufficiently tightly, welding can be carried out here without damaging the underlying hose.
- welds 1 1 can also be an array of welds in the direction of the axis of the endoscope, that is used substantially transversely to the position of the welds shown in Fig. 5.
- the welds can preferably be done with a welding laser, which is sufficiently narrow focus with suitable optics to make so narrow welds clean, as shown in Fig. 5 greatly enlarged.
- the diameter of the illustrated endoscope is only about 5 mm.
- the metal wire 12 would then have a thickness of 0.05 to 0.2 mm and the welds 11 would have a width of about 0.05 mm.
