As shown in fig. 1 to 5, the endoscope flushing pressurizing device and method according to a preferred embodiment of the invention are specifically illustrated.
As shown in fig. 1 to 4, the endoscope flushing pressurizing device 100 comprises a cleaning sleeve 16 and a pressurizing pump 10 communicated with the cleaning sleeve 16, the cleaning sleeve 16 is suitable for being assembled on an endoscope 20, the pressurizing pump 10 is provided with a containing cavity 101 for containing cleaning liquid, and a pushing end 102 and a liquid outlet end 103 which are arranged at two ends of the containing cavity 101, the contact area of the pushing end 102 and the cleaning liquid is set to be larger than that of the liquid outlet end 103, so that when the pushing end 102 is driven, the pushing end 102 can push the endoscope cleaning liquid in the containing cavity out of the liquid outlet end 103 at high speed and high pressure, and the flushing pressurizing device 100 can ensure that the endoscope lens 21 of the endoscope 20 has a good cleaning effect.
In particular, the endoscope flushing pressurizing device 100 adopts the motor module 11 to control and push the pushing end of the pressurizing pump 10, and the pressurizing pump 10 pressurizes the cleaning liquid based on pascal's law.
Specifically, the pushing end 102 can move under the pushing of the motor module 11, and the liquid outlet end 103 is connected to the cleaning sleeve 16 through a hose 51. Assuming that the contact area between the pushing end 102 and the cleaning liquid is S1, the contact area between the liquid outlet end 103 and the cleaning liquid is S2, the pushing force exerted by the motor module 11 on the pushing end 102 through the output shaft thereof is F1, and the pressure F2 of the cleaning liquid flowing out of the liquid outlet end 103 according to pascal' S law is:
F2=F1×S2/S1 (1)。
it can be understood that, since the area S2 of the liquid outlet end 103 is set to be much smaller than the area S1 of the pushing end 102, the liquid outlet end 103 can be ensured to flow out the cleaning liquid with high pressure and large flow rate in unit time and unit area, and the cleaning effect on the cavity mirror lens 21 is ensured.
It should be noted that the cleaning liquid 41 in the pressure pump 10 can be clear water or sterile physiological saline, and the invention is not limited thereto.
Further, the endoscope flushing and pressurizing device 100 further comprises a control unit 14 and a driving module 13 connected to the control unit 14 and the motor module 11, the motor module 11 is configured to drive the pushing end 102 based on a control command output by the control unit 14, and is configured to adjust an output torque according to the control command to change a thrust force on the pushing end 102, and the driving module 13 is configured to drive the motor module 11 to operate according to the control command output by the control unit 14.
It can be understood that the driving module 13 can adjust the output torque of the motor module 11 based on the control command output by the control unit 14, so as to change the pushing force F1 of the pushing end 102, and further adjust the pressure F2 of the cleaning liquid output by the liquid outlet end 103, so that the cleaning liquid 41 entering the body of the patient has a pressure higher than the pressure in the cavity of the patient, thereby better cleaning the cavity lens 21.
In addition, the endoscope flushing pressurizing device 100 not only can pressurize the cleaning liquid, so that the pressure of the cleaning liquid can be higher than the pressure in the patient cavity, thereby ensuring that the cleaning liquid can be smoothly sprayed out of the patient cavity and clean the endoscope lens 21, and having good cleaning effect, but also can adjust the output torque of the motor module 11 to adjust the thrust of the pushing end 102, thereby adjusting the pressure of the cleaning liquid, ensuring that the pressure of the cleaning liquid is not too high to influence the internal organs or tissues of the patient, and ensuring the cleaning safety.
It is worth mentioning that the control unit 14 is configured to output the control command based on the voice command or the limb movement command of the operator, and the operation mode is simple, which is beneficial to freeing the hands of the operator.
For example, the control unit 14 may include a voice recognition module and/or a limb motion recognition module to generate the corresponding control command based on a voice command of an operator and/or a limb motion command, and the voice recognition module may control the motor module 11 to push the pressure pump 10 to flush the cavity mirror lens 21 according to a preset operation command, for example, when the voice recognition module recognizes that the operator says "cavity mirror flushing", the control unit 14 sends a flushing command to the driving module 13 to control the motor module 11 to push the pressure pump 10 to flush the cavity mirror lens 21.
Alternatively, the speech segments for starting and stopping the flushing by the control unit 14 may be set in advance according to the habit of the operator.
Further, the endoscope flushing pressurizing device 100 further comprises an operation switch 15 communicably connected to the control unit 14, the control unit 14 is configured to detect a state of the operation switch 15, and output the corresponding control command to control the operation of the motor module 11 based on/off of the operation switch 15, and the operation switch 15 is a hand operation switch or a foot operation switch, and can be driven by an operator using a hand or a foot.
That is to say, the endoscope flushing pressurizing device 100 can control the flushing operation through voice recognition or limb movement recognition or by directly operating the operating switch 15, and the operation mode is simple, convenient and flexible. And through the mode of speech control, be favorable to liberating operator's both hands, be convenient for the operator to carry out other operation operations.
It should be noted that the control command output by the control unit 14 includes a flushing command and a flushing stop command, which is not limited by the present invention.
Further, the endoscope flushing pressurizing device 100 further comprises a flushing switch 17, wherein the flushing switch 17 is used for controlling and switching the working state and the pause state of the endoscope flushing pressurizing device 100, in the working state, the endoscope flushing pressurizing device 100 is in a state of waiting for the control instruction or in a state of cleaning the endoscope 20, and in the pause state, the endoscope flushing pressurizing device 100 is in a power-off state.
It can be understood that the pressurizing pump 10 of the endoscope flushing pressurizing device 100 comprises one or more pressurizing pumps, the inside of which is filled with cleaning liquid, when the liquid in the pressurizing pump fixed on the endoscope flushing pressurizing device 100 is insufficient to clean the endoscope lens 21 for one time, an operator can control the flushing switch 17 to switch the pause state of the endoscope flushing pressurizing device 100, and the operator can replace the new pressurizing pump. That is, the pressurizing pump 10 is detachably connected to the motor module 11 and the cleaning sleeve 16, so that in the pause state, the endoscope flushing pressurizing device 100 can be replaced with a new pressurizing pump.
Further, since the cleaning liquid 41 is to enter the body of the patient, in order to reduce discomfort of the patient, avoid spasm of the organs of the patient, and avoid fogging of the endoscopic lens 21 due to an excessive temperature difference, the temperature of the cleaning liquid 41 should be close to the temperature inside the patient, as shown in fig. 3, in an embodiment of the present invention, a pre-warmed cleaning liquid is filled in the pressure pump 10, and the cleaning liquid can be warmed by other devices in advance, and then the pressure pump 10 is installed, so as to reduce discomfort of the patient and avoid fogging of the endoscopic lens 21 when the endoscopic washing and pressurizing device 100 washes the endoscopic lens 21.
In another embodiment of the present invention, the endoscope flushing pressurizing device 100 may also be provided with a temperature control component 18, and the temperature control component 18 is disposed on the pressurizing pump 10 or the endoscope cleaning sleeve 16, and is communicably connected to the control unit 14, and is configured to adjust the temperature of the cleaning liquid 41 in the pressurizing pump 10 or the endoscope cleaning sleeve 16 in real time according to a temperature control instruction output by the control unit 14, and monitor the temperature of the cleaning liquid 41 in the pressurizing pump 10 or the endoscope cleaning sleeve 16 in real time.
In the preferred embodiment, as shown in fig. 4, the temperature control assembly 18 is disposed on the pressure pump 10, and preferably, the temperature control assembly 18 may be a heating wire disposed around the outer end of the pressure pump 10 to uniformly heat the cleaning liquid 41 flowing through the pressure pump 10.
In some embodiments, the temperature control component 18 may also be disposed inside the cleaning sleeve 16, and preferably, the temperature control component may be a heating wire disposed inside the cleaning sleeve 16, and after the cleaning liquid 41 enters the cleaning sleeve 16 from the pressure pump 10, the heating wire uniformly heats the cleaning liquid 41 flowing through the cleaning sleeve 16, so as to ensure that the cleaning liquid 41 cleans the endoscope at a proper temperature.
It should be noted that the temperature control assembly 18 may have a preset temperature range, and when the temperature control assembly 18 exceeds the temperature range, for example, when the temperature control assembly is below the temperature range, the temperature control assembly 18 feeds back information to the control unit 14 to control the temperature control assembly 18 to continue heating until the temperature of the cleaning liquid 41 is within the proper temperature range; when the temperature exceeds the temperature range, the temperature control assembly 18 feeds back information to the control unit 14 to control the temperature control assembly 18 to stop heating, so as to prevent the temperature of the cleaning liquid 41 from being too high due to overheating.
Further, the endoscope flushing pressurizing device 100 further comprises a power module 12, wherein the power module 12 is electrically connected to the control unit 14, the driving module 13 and the motor module 11, and provides electric energy for the control unit 14, the driving module 13 and the motor module 11.

The doctor observes and operates through the operation through the endoscope lens 21, and judges whether need wash endoscope lens 21. When the doctor thinks that the cleaning is needed, the doctor can control the operating switch 15 by himself or the limbs of the assistant, or the doctor can control the endoscope flushing pressurizing device 100 to flush the endoscope lens 21 by carrying out voice control unit according to a preset mode. After receiving an operation switch or a voice flushing instruction, the control unit 14 generates the control instruction, and controls the motor module 11 to push the pressure pump 10 through the driving module 13, so as to push the high-pressure cleaning liquid 41 into the cleaning sleeve 16, thereby cleaning the endoscope lens 21. When an operator stops controlling the operation switch 15 or sends a pre-stored voice command for stopping cleaning, the control unit 14 generates a control command for stopping cleaning, and stops controlling the motor module 11 to push the pressure pump 10, so as to stop cleaning the cavity mirror lens 21.
