Abstract

The swallow capsule endoscope comprises a modified truncated cone-shaped cavity capsule (1) in which an endoscopic module (A) is inserted which comprises an optical data transmission input formed by an optical system (7) connected to the imaging camera (3), and the imaging camera (3) in on the other side connected to the printed circuit board (5), the optical system (7) having side-by-side light-emitting diodes (4) to which the epoxy polymer cylinder (11) is glued, and to the printed circuit board (5) are connected by soldering by means of electrically conductive connections (6), electrical conductors (9) which are inserted into the dielectric protective tube (10) and lead out of the printed circuit board (5) of the endoscopic module (A), and between the optical system (7), the imaging camera (3), the epoxy polymer cylinder (11) and the light-emitting diodes (4) there is an air gap (8), and the rest of the cavity within the capsule (1) is filled with cured dielectric polymer (2), wherein the truncated cone of the capsule (1) is modified so that the surface of the cone base on which the optical input of the capsule (1) is located is larger than the area of the opposite cone base.

Claims

10 AMENDED CLAIMS received by the International Bureau on 18 May 2020 (18.05.2020)
1. Swallow capsule endoscope characterized by the fact that it comprises a modified truncated cone-shaped cavity capsule (1) in which an endoscopic module (A) is inserted, comprising an optical data transmission input formed by an optical system (7) connected to the imaging camera (3) and the imaging camera (3) on the other side is connected to the printed circuit board (5), the optical system (7) has side-mounted light-emitting diodes (4) to which the epoxy polymer cylinder (11) is adhered by the epoxy glue and to the printed circuit board (5) are connected by soldering by means of electrically conductive connections (6) electrical conductors (9), which are inserted into the dielectric protective tube (10) and are led from the printed circuit board (5) of the endoscopic module (A) and between the optical system (7), the imaging camera (3), the epoxy polymer cylinder (11) and the light-emitting diodes (4) is an air gap (8), and the rest of the cavity inside the capsule (1) is filled with cured dielectric polymer (2) while the truncated cone of the capsule (1) is modified so that the surface of the cone base on which the optical input of the capsule (1) is located is larger than the surface of the opposite cone base, and the dielectric protective tube (10) is guided along the lateral side of the capsule (1), wherein the beginning of the dielectric protective tube (10) is embedded in the dielectric polymer (2) and the electrical conductors (9) guided in the dielectric protective tube (10) extend from the capsule (1) on the same side as the optical input of the endoscopic module (A).
2. Swallow capsule endoscope according to claim 1 characterized by the fact that the capsule (1) has the shape of a modified truncated cone, all sides of which are convex.
3. Swallow capsule endoscope according to claim 1 characterized by the fact that the capsule (1) has the shape of a modified truncated cone, wherein the lower and upper bases of the modified truncated cone are convex and the lateral side of the modified truncated cone is concave.
4. Swallow capsule endoscope according to claim 1 characterized by the fact that the capsule (1) has the shape of a modified truncated cone, wherein the lower and upper bases of the modified truncated cone are convex and the lateral side of the modified truncated cone is straight.
