本专利申请要求于2016年8月31日提交的、申请号为201610796098.5、发明名称为“一种可经单一手术切口的柔性手术工具系统”的中国专利申请的优先权,上述申请的全文以引用的方式并入本文中。
技术领域
本发明涉及一种可经单一手术切口的柔性手术工具系统,属于医疗器械领域。
背景技术
多孔腹腔镜微创手术因其创口小、术后恢复快,已经在外科手术中占据了重要的地位。现有Intuitive Surgical公司的da Vinci手术机器人辅助医生完成多孔腹腔镜微创手术,取得了商业上的巨大成功。
微创术式在多孔腹腔镜手术之后又发展出单孔腹腔镜手术和经自然腔道的无创手术,它们对病人创伤更小、术后产出更高。但在单孔腹腔镜手术和经自然腔道的无创手术中,包括视觉照明模块和手术操作臂在内的所有手术器械均通过单一通道达到术部,这对手术器械的制备要求极为苛刻。现有手术器械的远端结构主要为多杆件的串联铰接,采用钢丝绳拉力驱动,使手术器械在铰接关节处实现弯转。由于钢丝绳须通过滑轮保持持续的张紧状态,这一驱动方式难以实现手术器械的进一步小型化,亦难以进一步提升器械的运动性能。
虽然Intuitive Surgical公司近期推出了da Vinci Single-Site手术机器人,其将原有的刚性手术器械改造为半刚性手术器械,并增加了预弯曲套管,一定程度上提升了手术器械的运动性能,但仍无法从根本上解决传统手术器械所面临的问题。

近端结构体16包括第一近端构节17和第二近端构节18,如图3所示,第一近端构节17包括第一近端间隔盘171、第一近端固定盘172和第一构节结构骨173;第二近端构节18包括第二近端间隔盘181、第二近端固定盘182和第二构节结构骨183。其中,第一近端间隔盘171和第二近端间隔盘181分别间隔分布于第一近端构节17和第二近端构节18中,作用是防止第一构节结构骨173和第二构节结构骨183在受推时失稳。第一近端构节17中的第一构节结构骨173与第一远端构节12中的第一构节结构骨123一一对应紧固连接或为同一根结构骨;第二近端构节18中的第二构节结构骨183与第二远端构节13中的第二构节结构骨133一一对应紧固连接或为同一根结构骨。对于每一近端构节17、18或远端构节12、13来说,结构骨的数量为三根以上。
中部连接体15包括通道固定板152和紧固连接在通道固定板152之间的结构骨引导通道151。第一构节结构骨173(123)的一端与第一近端固定盘172紧固连接,另一端依次穿过第一近端间隔盘171、结构骨引导通道151、第一远端间隔盘121后与第一远端固定盘122紧固连接。第二构节结构骨183(133) 的一端与第二近端固定盘182紧固连接,另一端依次穿过第二近端间隔盘181、结构骨引导通道151、第一远端构节12、第二远端间隔盘131后与第二远端固定盘132紧固连接。结构骨引导通道151的作用是保持其中的第一构节结构骨173(123)和第二构节结构骨183(133)受推、拉力时形状不变。
上述远端结构体11所包括的远端构节数以及近端结构体16所包括的近端构节数也可以是一个或者多于两个,但是近端构节数始终与远端构节数保持一致。此外,当远端构节数为两个以上时,各远端构节之间采用串联的方式连接,即第二构节结构骨从第一远端固定盘、第一远端间隔盘上穿过(若第一构节结构骨采用管状结构,也可从第一构节结构骨内穿过)。当近端构节数为两个以上时,各构节之间可以采用串联连接、独立设置或嵌套设置等。在本实施例中,两个近端构节之间采用的是嵌套设置的方式(如图3所示)。
如图5所示,在通道固定板152的后方设置一驱动单元固定板21,在驱动单元固定板21与通道固定板152之间设置有多个缆绳传动机构22,缆绳传动机构22包括联轴器公头221、两个锥齿轮222、223、齿轮轴235、固定块224、两个滑轮225、226、滑轮座231、驱动缆绳227、导向杆232、推拉杆229、导向滑块230。其中,联轴器公头221转动设置在驱动单元固定板21上且前端与锥齿轮222同轴紧固连接,锥齿轮222与锥齿轮223啮合,锥齿轮223通过齿轮轴235转动支撑在与驱动单元固定板21紧固连接的固定块224上;滑轮225与锥齿轮223同轴紧固连接;滑轮226转动支撑在与通道固定板152紧固连接的滑轮座231上;驱动缆绳227的一端与滑轮225紧固连接,另一端绕过滑轮226后与滑轮225紧固连接。在驱动缆绳227上紧固连接导向滑块230,导向滑块230滑动设置在导向杆232上,导向杆232紧固连接在驱动单元固定板21与通道固定板152之间。导向滑块230与推拉杆229的后端紧固连接,推拉杆229的前端穿过通道固定板152且通过近端构节驱动块233连接驱动骨211的一端,驱动骨211的另一端穿过第一近端间隔盘171后与第一近端固定盘172紧固连接或穿过第二近端间隔盘181后与第二近端固定盘182紧固连接。在两个通道固定板152之间紧固设置有导向杆234,近端构节驱动块233滑动连接在导向杆234上。在一个优选的实施例中,导向杆234与导向杆232为同一根导向杆。
当驱动联轴器公头221转动时,联轴器公头221通过锥齿轮222、223将旋转运动传递给滑轮225,滑轮225拉动驱动缆绳227,使得导向滑块230沿导向杆232做直线运动,通过推拉杆229使得近端构节驱动滑块233沿导向杆234 做直线运动,进而推拉驱动骨211,驱动第一近端构节17或第二近端构节18弯转。协同驱动多组缆绳传动机构22(本实施例中为8组)可实现对多根驱动骨211(本实施例中为8根)的协同推拉,进而驱动近端构节17、18向任意方向弯转。

上述实施例中,如图8~10所示,在运动传动部与驱动单元固定板21之间设置有无菌屏障30,无菌屏障30包括无菌屏障支撑板302、紧固连接在无菌屏障支撑板302外周的无菌屏障外罩301和多个转动连接在无菌屏障支撑板302上的联轴器母头303,联轴器母头303的前端用于与联轴器公头221连接。在每一输出轴405的前端紧固连接一用于与联轴器母头303的后端进行连接的联轴器公头403(如图6所示)。由此,输出轴405的旋转运动可通过联轴器公头403、联轴器母头303、联轴器公头221传递给锥齿轮222。在无菌屏障外罩301上紧固连接有无菌膜(图中未示出),其可将柔性手术工具10等位于无菌屏障30以前的已消毒的部分与运动传动部、电机部41等位于无菌屏障30以后的未消毒的部分隔离开来,保证临床手术的可实施性。

上述实施例中,如图8所示,在远端结构体11的外部设置有封皮103,其作用为改善远端结构体11进入人体自然腔道或手术切口的顺畅性。在封皮103的外部还可以设置刚性外套管104和鞘套60。在一种应用中,鞘套60固定于腹腔的单一切口处,远端结构体11连同封皮103、手术执行器101可以自由穿过鞘套60上供手术工具通过的通孔到达术部以施展单孔腔镜手术。如图12所示,鞘套60也可以采用柔性鞘套,其可以更容易地伸入人体的各类自然腔道并随着腔道的形状而自适应改变外形,柔性鞘套的一端固定于腔道入口处,远端结构体11连同封皮103、手术执行器101同样可以自由穿过柔性鞘套上供手术工具通过的通孔到达术部以施展经自然腔道的无创手术。
本发明仅以上述实施例进行说明,各部件的结构、设置位置及其连接都是可以有所变化的。在本发明技术方案的基础上,凡根据本发明原理对个别部件进行的改进或等同变换,均不应排除在本发明的保护范围之外。
