如图1所示,本公开实施例提供的前端可移动的内窥镜,包括插入部1和操作部2。此外,整个内窥镜还包括含视频监视器等未列出的装置,此处不再赘述。
根据本公开实施例提供的前端可移动的内窥镜,请参阅图1至图33,包括主管11、摄像部12、弹性变形部18以及驱动部件。
主管11为插入部1的前端的管段,主管11内形成有贯通的主管腔道114,主管腔道114内至少用于穿设工作器具13。插入部1还包括设置在主管11的出口的摄像部12,其中,主管11包括前管段111、弯曲段112以及后管段113,弯曲段112用于调整主管11的前端方向,可以使主管11适应不同类型的人体腔道。弯曲段112可以伸入人体自然腔道,具体地,弯曲段112可以采用软管或者蛇骨组成,弯曲段112具有至少一个方向的弯曲功能。弯曲段112通过牵引丝(图中未示出)连接至控制单元21,牵引丝可采用钢丝或者其他具有一定强度和韧性的丝线材料。具体地,控制单元21可以直接与牵引丝相连,或者通过防滑缓冲件(图中未示出)与牵引丝相连,防滑缓冲件可以采用柔性件防止牵引丝弯折。
主管腔道114至少用于插入工作器具13,具体地,工作器具13可以是可操纵导管、活检钳、注射针、喷雾管、电刀、圈套器、网篮、止血夹等。
弹性变形部18连接于摄像部12,且弹性变形部18位于主管11的出口端,例如主管11的出口端的内部、出口端的外部或者出口端的管壁上。在自然状态下,弹性变形部18依靠自身的弹性恢复力可以使摄像部12位于主管腔道114的出口处,即位于主管11的出口的前方,此时摄像部12在径向方向上尽量与主管11重合,未增加主管11的外侧壁以外的空间占用。
驱动部件作用于弹性变形部18和/或摄像部12,驱动部件使得摄像部12在第一位置和第二位置之间切换。
需要说明的是,本公开中驱动部件的连接形式不做限定,可以单独作用于摄像部12,也可以单独作用于弹性变形部18,或者同时作用于摄像部12和弹性变形部18,基于摄像部12与弹性变形部18之间的连 接关系,摄像部12在第一位置和第二位置之间切换。驱动部件的驱动方式包括但不限于磁力驱动、气动驱动、拉线驱动、电动螺杆驱动、气囊驱动(充气放气状态)或者油缸驱动等,驱动部件可以对摄像部12或者弹性变形部18产生沿主管11的径向方向的作用力或者分力,以使得摄像部12在第一位置和第二位置之间切换。
驱动部件的以上描述仅为本公开的较佳实施例而已,并不用以限制本公开,凡在本公开的精神和原则之内,所作的任何修改、等同替换、改进等,均应包含在本公开的保护范围之内。
本公开中主管11的轴向是指主管11的进口至出口方向,主管11的径向是指垂直于主管轴向的方向,且主管11的径向横截面为环形。
在一些情况下,工作器具13可以作为驱动部件,此时内窥镜不需要设置额外的驱动结构,可以使内窥镜更加精简。工作器具13在主管腔道114的出口处抵接于弹性变形部18,工作器具13在伸出和缩回主管腔道114的过程中使得摄像部12在第一位置和第二位置之间切换。需要说明的是,工作器具13伸出和缩回主管腔道114的过程对应于工作器具13开展工作前和完成工作后的动作。前端可移动的内窥镜的工作器具13可以根据需要选用,在主管11、弹性变形部18以及摄像部12的位置以及连接关系确定时,采用多种工作器具13均能够实现摄像部12的位置切换。如图1所示,工作器具13可以从工作通道口31送入主管腔道114内,主管腔道114内至少可以通过一种工作器具。
在第一位置时,摄像部12对应于主管腔道114的出口,此时摄像部12的部分或者全部结构投影在主管11的径向横截面范围内,内窥镜的前端尺寸取决于主管11,而主管11的外侧壁为圆弧形或者其它弧形结构,在放入人体腔道内时较为方便。
在第二位置时,摄像部12至少部分避开主管腔道114的出口,此时主管11已经放入人体腔道对应的检查/治疗位置,将工作器具13插入主管腔道114内时,工作器具13挤推弹性变形部18使之发生变形, 进而使得摄像部12部分或者全部避开主管腔道114的出口,此时工作器具13可以沿着主管腔道114的出口伸出,以实现对人体腔道的检查和/或治疗。需要说明的是,人体腔道具有一定的弹性,摄像部12避开主管腔道114的出口时,受到的阻力较小,不影响工作器具13的伸出。
根据上述内容可知,摄像部12位于第一位置时,摄像部12处于主管腔道114的出口处,此时摄像部12没有增加内窥镜的前端尺寸,操作人员可以更容易将内窥镜放入人体腔道内,同时降低患者的不适感,而且摄像部12的尺寸可以选择较大的规格,成像效果较好。内窥镜到达人体腔道内的对应位置后,将工作器具13沿着主管腔道114的出口伸出,利用工作器具13挤压弹性变形部18,进而使摄像部12的部分或者全部避开主管腔道114的出口,此时主管腔道114的出口通畅,主管腔道114内可以放置较大尺寸的工作器具13。根据本公开实施例提供的前端可移动的内窥镜,在插入阶段没有增加内窥镜的尺寸,便于内窥镜的放置,在检查/治疗阶段增加了主管腔道114内可通过的工作器具13的尺寸,使用时更加灵活方便。
在一些实施例中,为了尽可能减少内窥镜在进入人体腔道时的难度,提升用户的舒适度,在第一位置时,摄像部12的侧面相对于主管11的外侧壁平齐或者内凹。
请参阅图3至图26,在第一位置时,摄像部12的外侧面与主管11的外侧壁保持平齐,摄像部12与主管11的外侧壁保持平顺连接。内窥镜在放入人体腔道时,摄像部12没有增加主管11的外部尺寸,放置过程较为顺畅,可以降低用户的不适感。
在其它的情况下,摄像部12的侧面相对于主管11的外侧壁内凹,此时摄像部12的尺寸小于主管11的管径,不会增加内窥镜的前端尺寸。
具体地,弹性变形部18可使用硅胶、热塑性弹性体材料等,如TPE 材料,具有弹性和生物相容性。
根据本公开实施例提供的摄像部12包括摄像部前端面125和摄像部后端面126,摄像部后端面126靠近主管11所在的方向设置,摄像部前端面125所在侧设置有摄像头121、照明单元122以及冲洗喷口123等,用于实现摄像照明等功能。
在一些实施例中,摄像部12包括至少一个摄像头121。
请参阅图6至图8,摄像头121的数量可以为一个或者多个。摄像头121包括单摄像头、双摄像头或者三摄像头,单摄像头为彩色摄像头,本公开实施例中摄像部12可以有更大的端面,所以可以使用较大尺寸的彩色摄像头。双摄像头可以为两个彩色摄像头,也可以为一个彩色摄像头及一个黑白摄像头,彩色摄像头记录图像的彩色信息,黑白摄像头抓取物体的细节。彩色摄像头捕获的彩色信息和黑白摄像头抓取的细节进行融合,进而获得更高质量的图像。
双摄像头也可以为一个彩色摄像头和一个红外摄像头,双摄像头可以进行2D成像,也可以进行3D成像。三摄像头中至少包括一个黑白摄像头或者红外摄像头或者荧光摄像头。具体地,三摄像头可以进行2D成像也可以进行3D成像也可以进行荧光成像。上述摄像头的组合可以根据具体的功能需求进行组合,此处不再逐一列举;上述摄像头的各种组合也可以用于其他实施例的摄像部中,下文给出的其他实施例中不再赘述。
请参阅图1至图33,本公开提供了多种具体的实施例,以下针对每一种实施例详细进行说明。
在一些实施例中,请参阅图3至图4,摄像部12朝向主管11的一侧设有管线连接件124,管线连接件124为长条状的结构,管线连接件124内包括光纤、导管(导水和/或导气)以及导线等。管线连接件124将各种管线整合在一起,不仅避免线路复杂影响空间占用,也方便了内窥镜的组装和使用。管线连接件124的一端连接于摄像部12,另一端 连接于操作部2以及水气管等。管线连接件124靠近摄像部12的连接段形成弹性变形部18,此时弹性变形部18属于管线连接件124的一部分。
管线连接件124沿着主管11设置,弹性变形部18设置在主管11的出口处,在自然状态下,弹性变形部18可以使摄像部12位于主管腔道114的出口处,尽量减少了内窥镜前端的尺寸。在工作器具13伸出主管腔道114时,工作器具13挤推管线连接件124的弹性变形部18,可以使摄像部12部分或者全部避开主管腔道114的出口。
在一些实施例中,摄像部12还包括照明单元122和冲洗喷口123,管线连接件124内设置有连接于摄像头121的导线1242、连通于冲洗喷口123的导管1243以及连接于照明单元122的导线1242或者光纤1244。照明单元122用光纤导光或者头端LED照明是二选一的实施方案,若光纤导光则照明单元用光纤1244;若头端LED则照明单元需要导线1242。
请参阅图9,管线连接件124靠近摄像部12的一端形成有管线连接件前端部1241,导线1242、导管1243以及光纤1244在管线连接件前端部1241处连接于摄像部12。冲洗喷口123可用于对摄像头121喷水和/或喷气,当摄像头121的镜头受到污染时,可以通过冲洗喷口123喷出水气去除镜头上沾附的污物,使画面更清晰。冲洗喷口123也可以用于对人体腔道内的组织喷水喷气,在治疗中清洗组织较小的出血点。
管线连接件前端部1241用于与摄像部12相接,管线连接件后端部与操作部2中的连接器(图中未示出)相连,连接器具有电信号接口和光信号接口。连接器可设置为接触式连接器,也可拆分为接触式电源连接器和无线式光电连接器,其中电源接口为接触式,信号接口为无线式。连接器可以是可拆卸装置,在每次使用后摄像部12可以与操作部2分离。分离的摄像部12进行高水平消毒后可以重复安装使用,减少患者每次使用的成本,主管11可以用较低成本的一次性使用材料制成从而一次性使用,解决内窥镜管道消毒不方便的问题。
在一些实施例中,请参阅图3至图5,管线连接件124设置在主管腔道114内,弹性变形部18独立于主管11的内侧壁。
可以理解的是,设置在主管腔道114内的管线连接件124没有增加主管11的外侧体积,内窥镜在使用时便于放置在人体自然腔道内。与此同时,管线连接件124将多种管线整合在一起,且位于主管腔道114的一侧,尽可能提升了主管腔道114内用于通过工作器具13的空间。在不增加内窥镜尺寸的情况下方便了主管11的置入,还扩大了工作器具13的尺寸适用范围。
在一些情况下,为了尽可能通过较大的工作器具13,管线连接件124对应于弹性变形部18以外的连接段抵接于主管腔道114的内壁。
在一些情况下,管线连接件124对应于弹性变形部18以外的连接段可以成弧形或者圆筒形,贴附于主管腔道114的腔壁上,此时主管腔道114内剩余的尺寸更大,有利于更大尺寸的工作器具13通过。
在一些实施例中,管线连接件124设置于主管11的外侧,管线连接件124通过固定件33连接于主管11的外侧壁。
请参阅图27至图31,管线连接件124沿主管11的长度方向设置,固定件33的数量可以为一个或者多个。管线连接件124靠近摄像部12的连接段形成有弹性变形部18,弹性变形部18可以将摄像部12维持在主管腔道114的出口处。
相较于管线连接件124设置在主管腔道114内,管线连接件124设置在主管11的外侧时,整个主管腔道114全部用于穿设工作器具13,工作器具13的适用尺寸进一步得到提升,且工作器具13的形状不受管线连接件124的影响。
管线连接件124设置在主管11的外侧壁时,管线连接件124的尺寸需要尽可能减小,且贴合于主管11的外侧壁。内窥镜的尺寸不增加或者增加较小的情况下,就可以实现较大尺寸的工作器具13的置入,而且摄像部12的尺寸较大,成像效果较好。
在一些情况下,请参阅图31,管线连接件124靠近主管11的外侧壁的一侧形成有弧形槽1245,弧形槽1245贴合于主管11的外侧壁。此时,管线连接件124与主管11的整体尺寸较小,有利于内窥镜放入人体腔道。
在另一些情况下,管线连接件124对应于弹性变形部18以外的连接段形成圆筒状柔性套,圆筒状柔性套套设在主管11的外侧,此时管线连接件124内的光纤、导线以及导管均匀设置在主管11的外侧,内窥镜的整体尺寸较小。
在一些实施例中,主管11的管壁端部1111的局部设置有凸出部1110,凸出部1110与主管11的其余部分管壁端部形成台阶状缺口,请参阅图2、图3、图11、图12、图28、图29以及图30。在第一位置时,摄像部12位于台阶状缺口处,且凸出部1110相对于摄像部12远离主管11的侧面平齐或者内凹。
可以理解的是,在主管11的部分管壁端部1111处设置有凸出部1110,凸出部1110与主管11的其余部分管壁端部形成台阶状缺口,台阶状缺口构成对摄像部12的限位。在弹性变形部18的作用下,摄像部12自动运动至台阶状缺口处,且不会在插入人体腔道的过程中随意变化位置,避免了摄像部12碰撞或者接触人体腔道,提升了用户的舒适感。
与此同时,凸出部1110相对于摄像部12远离主管11的侧面平齐或者内凹,即凸出部1110不超过摄像部12的摄像部前端面125,避免了凸出部1110划伤或者挤压人体腔道。
在一些情况下,摄像部前端面125与凸出部1110保持平齐或者平顺连接,减少了内窥镜不必要的棱角。摄像部12与凸出部1110的边缘处设置有倒角结构,内窥镜的前端更加平滑。
在一些实施例中,沿主管11的出口至进口方向,凸出部1110靠近摄像部12的侧面向管线连接件124所在方向倾斜。
请参阅图27至图30,凸出部1110位于管壁端部1111处,凸出部1110的两个侧面朝向摄像部12设置。在工作器具13推挤弹性变形部18时,弹性变形部18沿主管11的径向方向运动,此时摄像部12同步侧向运动。凸出部1110靠近摄像部12的侧面向管线连接件124所在方向倾斜时,摄像部12靠近主管11的一端的尺寸较小,摄像部12在摆动时可以灵活避开管壁端部1111,使用时更加方便。
在一些实施例中,凸出部1110靠近摄像部12的侧面与摄像部12之间设置有第一驱动单元1112,第一驱动单元1112使摄像部12切换至第一位置或者第二位置。
请参阅图11至图12,凸出部1110的侧面可以设置第一驱动单元1112。具体地,第一驱动单元1112可以是相互吸引的磁铁石,或其他有吸附功能的装置。当工作器具13沿主管11轴向移动到主管腔道114里时,可以用摄像部12轻碰人体腔道组织,进而使弹性变形部18受到沿主管11径向向内的推力,进而和摄像部12一起移动。当摄像部12的侧面的第一驱动单元1112靠近凸出部1110的侧面的第一驱动单元1112时,两个第一驱动单元1112产生的吸引力使摄像部12和弹性变形部18遮挡主管腔道114的出口,内窥镜前端从分开状态转换为合起状态。内窥镜前端的合起状态如图3所示,摄像部12和弹性变形部18在自然状态下遮挡主管腔道114的出口。
当第一驱动单元1112为具有吸附功能的装置时,工作器具13可以作为插入在主管腔道114内的附属驱动单元。工作器具13在主管腔道114里沿主管轴向主管腔道114外移动到内窥镜前端时,挤推弹性变形部18以产生弹性变形,使弹性变形部18沿主管轴的径向移离主管腔道114的出口。
在一些实施例中,驱动部件为第二驱动单元25,摄像部12和/或弹性变形部18连接于第二驱动单元25,第二驱动单元25使摄像部12在第一位置和第二位置之间切换。
如图12所示,在主管11上设置有第二驱动单元25,第二驱动单元25可以是拉线,第二驱动单元25一端连接摄像部12的头端以及弹性变形部18,另一端连接控制单元21。具体地,第二驱动单元25可以是钢丝、尼龙绳或者其他具有一定强度和韧性的丝线材料。第二驱动单元25包括分开拉线252,分开拉线252的一端和摄像部12的头端相连。分开拉线252拉动摄像部12的头端沿主管轴径向向外移动时,弹性变形部18被驱动移离主管腔道114的出口,内窥镜前端变为分开状态,此时工作器具13可以伸出主管腔道114的出口处。
在另一些情况下,凸出部1110的侧面设置的第一驱动单元1112也可以是相排斥的磁铁石、弹簧装置或其他有排斥力功能的装置。第二驱动单元25可为合起拉线251,合起拉线251的一端和摄像部12的头端以及弹性变形部18相连。工作器具13沿主管轴向后移动收回主管腔道114内时,合起拉线251可以拉动摄像部12的头端沿主管轴径向向里移动,弹性变形部18和摄像部12被驱动遮挡主管腔道114的出口,内窥镜前端变为合起状态。
可以理解的是,可以在主管11内设置小孔为合起拉线251或分开拉线252穿过并提供支持力,合起拉线251或分开拉线252从主管11内穿过的孔由耐磨材料制成,比如表面光滑的陶瓷材料,或表面有耐磨镀层(镀铬)的不锈钢等,该孔具有方便丝线拉动,并且能承受丝线反复拉动的摩擦的特性。
在一些情况下,内窥镜的驱动部件如插入在主管腔道114内的工作器具13,或设置在主管11上的第二驱动单元25,该驱动单元的动力源可以为人力或电力等,驱动单元的驱动方式可采用电力驱动、气压驱动或者液压驱动等,只要能对驱动单元输出驱动力即可。此外,内窥镜的驱动单元设置和驱动力装置的设置可以自由组合,例如弹性变形部18在自然状态下处于主管腔道114出口的外侧,则设置合起拉线251,在内窥镜插入时拉紧合起拉线251让弹性变形部18遮挡在主管腔 道114的出口,在内窥镜需要工作时放松合起拉线251,弹性变形部变形回自然状态,让内窥镜前端变成分开状态;此时也可以再选择设置具有排斥力功能的驱动力装置,即驱动力装置的排斥力和弹性变形部18自身的恢复力让弹性变形部18移离主管腔道114出口,合起拉线251的拉力让弹性变形部18变形遮挡主管腔道114的出口。再例如弹性变形部在自然状态下遮挡在主管腔道114的出口,则可设置分开拉线252作为主动驱动单元,以及设置工作器具13作为附属驱动单元,可选择设置具有吸引力功能的驱动力装置,即分开拉线252的拉力和工作器具13的挤推力让弹性变形部变形处于主管腔道114出口的外侧,驱动力装置的吸引力和弹性变形部自身的恢复力让弹性变形部18遮挡主管腔道114的出口。通过设置其中一种或多种驱动单元和驱动力装置,只要能够实现对弹性变形部18的变形和复原,进而使内窥镜前端合起或分开即可,此处不再逐一举例。
根据本公开的一个实施例,主管11朝向摄像部12的局部管壁端部1111设有弹性变形部18,此时弹性变形部18属于主管11的管壁的一部分,管线连接件124上可以根据需要设置或者不设置相应的结构。
请参阅图15至图26,管线连接件124的结构保持均一,尽可能减少占用主管腔道114内的空间,弹性变形部18设置在主管11朝向摄像部12的管壁端部1111的局部,即主管11的端部的局部管壁具有弹性,弹性变形部18可以在外力作用下变形,进而与摄像部12同步运动。在这种情形下,管线连接件124不需要设置额外的结构,整体尺寸较小,主管腔道114内可以放置的工作器具13的尺寸较大。与此同时,在内窥镜放入人体腔道时,主管11的外侧壁整体保持均一,无其余额外结构,尺寸较小,提升了用户的舒适感。本实施例可以实现主管11尺寸的最小化,以及主管腔道114尺寸的最大化,以及摄像部12尺寸的最大化。
在一些实施例中,主管11的管壁对应于弹性变形部18以外的其余 部分管壁延伸至摄像部12。
请参阅图19至图22,在主管11的部分管壁形成弹性变形部18时,主管11对应于弹性变形部18以外的其余部分管壁19延伸至摄像部12处,其余部分管壁19的相对于摄像部12远离主管11的侧面平齐或者内凹。此时内窥镜的前端保持平顺,避免了摄像部12或者管壁形成独立的棱角,避免内窥镜前端划伤人体腔道,用户的舒适感较好。
在一些情况下,其余部分管壁19也具有弹性,且其余部分管壁19的弹性模量可以大于或者小于等于弹性变形部18的弹性模量。
请参阅图20,其余部分管壁19的弹性模量大于弹性变形部18的弹性模量,工作器具13伸出主管腔道114的出口时,主要或者全部由弹性变形部18发生变形,进而使得摄像部12至少部分避开主管腔道114的出口。
请参阅图22,其余部分管壁19的弹性模量小于弹性变形部18的弹性模量,工作器具13伸出主管腔道114的出口时,主要由其余部分管壁19发生变形,此时主管腔道114的出口的位置发生适度的偏转,进而使得摄像部12至少部分避开主管腔道114的出口。
可以理解的是,其余部分管壁19的弹性模量等于或者接近弹性变形部18的弹性模量时,弹性变形部18与其余部分管壁19共同发挥作用,以使得摄像部12至少部分避开主管腔道114的出口。使用时,可以调整其余部分管壁19的弹性模量与弹性变形部18的弹性模量的比值,以获取较佳的形变效果。
在上述实施例中,弹性变形部18与其余部分管壁19之间具有裂缝或者间隙,弹性变形部18在外力作用下变形时,不影响其余部分管壁。此时,其余部分管壁还用于引导工作器具13伸出或者缩回,起到了导向作用。
在一些实施例中,沿主管11的径向方向,即径向横截面方向,弹性变形部18靠近摄像部12的一端的横截面积大于弹性变形部18远离 摄像部12的一端的横截面积。
请参阅图17至图26,弹性变形部18靠近摄像部12的一端的横截面积大于弹性变形部18远离摄像部12的一端的横截面积,此时弹性变形部18与主管11连接的部分尺寸较小,有利于弹性变形部18在外力作用下发生变形。在没有额外驱动部件的情况下,仅通过工作器具13就可以使摄像部12挤推弹性变形部18,以实现摄像部12在第一位置和第二位置之间切换。
在一些实施例中,弹性变形部18的数量为多个,多个弹性变形部18的其中一个连接于摄像部12,多个弹性变形部18的其余几个一一对应连接于多个辅助件17。
请参阅图13至图14,主管11内侧或者外侧可以设置多个弹性变形部18,以及图15至图18,主管11的管壁可以形成多个弹性变形部18。
多个弹性变形部18的其中一个连接于摄像部12,发挥主要的摄像照明功能,多个弹性变形部18的其余几个一一对应连接于多个辅助件17,发挥辅助功能。弹性变形部18的数量可以根据需要设置,可以为两个、三个以及以上,相邻弹性变形部18的尺寸可以不相同,例如连接摄像部12的弹性变形部18的尺寸可以大一些,连接辅助件17的弹性变形部18的尺寸可以小一些。
需要说明的是,多个弹性变形部18一一对应连接于多个驱动部件,例如拉线等,可以实现多个弹性变形部18同时或者分别运动。
内窥镜的前端分开时,内窥镜前端具有多个弹性变形部18可以使每个弹性变形部18变形的程度比只有一个弹性变形部18时变形小,进而方便工作器具13的伸出和收回。多个弹性变形部18的设置可以有多种组合方法,只要能够实现完整的摄像功能和方便内窥镜前端的开合即可,此处不再逐一举例。
在一些情况下,辅助件17可以为辅助遮蔽件或者辅助摄像部。
请参阅图14至图16,辅助件17为辅助遮蔽件,此时辅助件17的作 用是协助遮蔽主管腔道114的出口,在内窥镜放入人体腔道时,摄像部12位于主管腔道114的出口,辅助遮蔽件与摄像部12相互配合,尽可能遮蔽主管腔道114的整个出口,此时可以防止人体腔道内的异物进入主管腔道114内。
请参阅图13及图17,辅助件17为辅助摄像部,辅助摄像部包括辅助摄像头171、辅助照明单元172以及辅助冲洗喷口173等;或者辅助摄像部只包括辅助照明单元172。辅助摄像部的前端面可以为平面也可以为斜面,辅助摄像部前端面的不同倾斜角度可提供不同的观察和照明角度。
需要说明的是,辅助摄像部也可以设置一个或者多个摄像头,摄像头的种类和数量可以根据需要设置。
在一些实施例中,摄像部12背向主管11的侧面倾斜设置,即摄像部前端面125倾斜设置,请参阅图5、图17、图18、图21、图22以及图26。
可以理解的是,在工作器具13或者其它驱动部件的作用下,弹性变形部18被挤推变形,此时摄像部12发生侧向移动以及适度的转动。摄像部12背向主管11的侧面倾斜设置,摄像部前端面125处的摄像头121、照明单元122以及冲洗喷口123在不同倾斜角度可提供不同的观察、照明以及冲洗角度,适用范围更广。照明单元122可以为头端LED照明,也可以为光纤导光照明部。照明单元122的照明窗可以设置单光窗,也可以设置双光窗。
在一些情况下,根据弹性变形部18的变形情况设置摄像部前端面125的倾斜角度,确保摄像部12在第二位置时,摄像部前端面125的方向正好满足使用需求。例如在第二位置时,摄像部前端面125垂直于主管11的轴向方向,或者摄像头121的角度向人体腔道的腔壁倾斜,便于观察病灶。
在一些实施例中,弹性变形部18靠近工作器具13的一侧与摄像部 12的侧边平顺连接,且弹性变形部18靠近工作器具13的一侧与摄像部12的侧面均设有与工作器具13相适应的滑槽120。
请参阅图24,摄像部12的侧面设有与工作器具13相适应的滑槽120,滑槽120延伸至弹性变形部18靠近工作器具13的一侧。在工作器具13伸出主管腔道114的过程中,工作器具13贴合于滑槽120,并沿着滑槽120伸出。滑槽120降低了工作器具13伸出时的阻力,同时还可以与工作器具13的外侧壁密封连接,避免人体腔道内的异物进入主管腔道114,降低了内窥镜清洗以及消毒的难度。
在一些实施例中,在主管11的管壁端部1111处设置有弹性变形部18,而对应于弹性变形部18以外的管壁未延伸,此时主管11的出口处形成有较大的开口。在这种情况下,可以在主管腔道114内插入支撑器具131,请参阅图23所示,内窥镜在插入人体腔道的过程中,将支撑器具131放入主管腔道114内,避免异物进入主管腔道114,同时支撑器具131可以防止弹性变形部18出现变形,有利于内窥镜的插入。待内窥镜插入完成后,将支撑器具131取出,然后再将工作器具13插入主管腔道114。
本公开实施例提供的一种前端可移动的内窥镜,内窥镜的插入部1和操作部2也可以采用分体内窥镜结构。分体内窥镜结构可采用中国公开专利CN111493795A公开的一种“分体式内窥镜装置”中的一种结构。如图32所示,分体内窥镜包括锁紧机构,锁紧机构包括设置于插入部1的第一锁紧件14以及设置于操作部2的第二锁紧件22,第一锁紧件14与第二锁紧件22可拆卸连接。具体地,第一锁紧件14和第二锁紧件22可以是插头和插座连接,也可以为螺纹连接。插入部1上还设置有工作通道口31、水气口32。其中水气口32数量为两个,分别用于提供给摄像头121冲洗所需的水和气。管线连接件124末端分两条支路,导管1243与水气口32相连,导线1242和光纤1244与第一电连接单元15相连。第一电连接单元15和第二电连接单元23之间的电源与电信 号采用电信号连接器互连,光信号采用光电模块无线连接。
具体地,电信号连接器可以采用Type-C等形式电连接器,或者通过电磁耦合或触点连接的方式对接。本实施例中的第一动力连接单元16可以直接与连接弯曲段112的牵引丝相连。
具体地,第一动力连接单元16的数量至少为两组,进而可以实现弯曲段112至少一个方向的弯曲,和实现对工作器具13的移动。第二动力连接单元24和操作部的控制单元21相连,当第一锁紧件14和第二锁紧件22卡接时,可以实现第二动力连接单元24和第一动力连接单元16之间的动力传递。
进一步地,插入部1的端面上安装有第一电连接单元15,第一电连接单元15可分为第一电信号连接器和第一光信号连接器。第一电信号连接器可设置为接触式连接器,也可拆分为接触式电源连接器和无线式光电连接器,其中电源接口为接触式,信号接口为无线式;第一光信号连接器在内部光纤头端加装透镜或光锥及保护玻璃。操作部2的端面上安装有第二电连接单元23。具体地,第二电连接单元23可以分为第二电信号连接器和第二光信号连接器。第二电信号连接器可设置为接触式连接器,也可拆分为接触式电源连接器和无线式光电连接器,其中电源接口为接触式,信号接口为无线式;第二光信号连接器在内部光纤头端加装透镜或光锥及保护玻璃。
本公开实施例提供的一种前端可移动内窥镜,内窥镜的插入部1和操作部2还可以采用新型的电动内窥镜结构,新型电动内窥镜结构可采用中国公开专利CN110974125A公开的一种“内窥镜用夹持控制装置”中的结构。本公开需要重复使用部分可进行高水平消毒,其消毒内容为:杀灭一切细菌繁殖体包括分枝杆菌、病毒、真菌及其孢子等的消毒方法。具体地,化学方法有含氯制剂、二氧化氯、邻苯二甲醛、过氧乙酸、过氧化氢、环氧乙烷等。
本公开实施例提供的主管11、摄像部12、弹性变形部18(包括其 连接部)可以用一次性使用材料制成,也可以用可进行高水平消毒的重复使用材料制成。本公开中内窥镜可以为一次性使用内窥镜,也可以为重复使用内窥镜。
