In the embodiment of the application, the light shielding member 400 is movably disposed on the lens base 100, and the driving mechanism 500 is connected with the light shielding member 400 to drive the light shielding member 400 to move relative to the lens base 100, so as to shield one of the first window 110 and the second window 120 and make the other one in an exposed state. Specifically, the light shielding member 400 has a first state in which the light shielding member 400 shields the first window 110 on the lens holder 100 and the second window 120 is exposed, and at this time, light in a far direction of the lens holder 100 cannot be obtained by the image capturing module 200 through the first window 110, but only light in a side direction of the lens holder 100 can be obtained by the image capturing module 200, that is, the image capturing module 200 can only obtain image information in a side direction of the lens holder 100 in the first state, and a second state in which the light shielding member 400 shields the second window 120 on the lens holder 100 and the first window 110 is exposed, and at this time, light in a side direction of the lens holder 100 cannot be obtained by the image capturing module 200 through the second window 120, but only light in a far direction of the lens holder 100 can be obtained by the image capturing module 200, that is, the image capturing module 200 can only obtain image information in a far direction of the lens holder 100 in the second state.
Based on the above technical solution, in a specific application of the front end assembly according to the embodiment of the present application, an operator can drive the light shielding member 400 to move relative to the lens holder 100 through the driving mechanism 500, so that the image capturing module 200 can switch between acquiring the distal image information of the lens holder 100 and acquiring the side image information of the lens holder 100. In the process of the endoscope penetrating into the human body cavity, the driving mechanism 500 can be controlled to act so that the camera module 200 can acquire the far-end image information of the lens seat 100, so that operators can clearly see the tissue structure in front and the possible obstacle in the process of placing the endoscope, the operators can conveniently and accurately judge the path and the position of the endoscope entering into the body, the operators can be helped to accurately guide the endoscope to the target area, and meanwhile, based on the visualization of the endoscope penetrating path, the collision or friction between the far end of the endoscope and surrounding tissues can be avoided, so that the risk of damage is reduced.
After the distal end of the endoscope reaches the target area, for example, the duodenum and related parts, the driving mechanism 500 can be controlled to act so that the image pickup module 200 obtains the image information on the side of the lens holder 100, and the image pickup module 200 can observe the duodenal papilla and the bile duct and pancreatic duct openings around the duodenal papilla through the second window 120, so that the operator can observe or operate intuitively. That is, the front end assembly according to the embodiment of the present application controls the light shielding member 400 to act, so that the same camera module 200 can realize both forward looking observation to facilitate the operation of inserting an endoscope and side looking observation of the duodenum and related parts, thereby realizing multiple functions of the camera module 200 and improving the convenience of diagnosis.
In an alternative embodiment of the present application, referring to fig. 2,3 and 4, the light shielding member 400 is rotatably engaged with the lens holder 100 to switch between the first state and the second state. Specifically, the driving mechanism 500 includes a slider 510 and a driving member 520 connected to the slider 510, the lens holder 100 is provided with a first guide groove 130 extending along an axial direction thereof, the light shielding member 400 has a spiral guide groove 411 extending along an axial direction thereof, the slider 510 is slidably fitted in the first guide groove 130 and the spiral guide groove 411, and when the slider 510 moves along the first guide groove 130, the light shielding member 400 can be driven to rotate, so that the light shielding member 400 can be switched between a first state and a second state.
In some embodiments of the present application, referring to fig. 4 and 5, the driving member 520 may be a traction rope, where a distal end of the traction rope is fixedly connected to the slider 510, and the traction rope can pull the slider 510 to slide in the first guide groove 130 when traction force is applied to the traction rope, so as to switch the light shielding member 400 from the first state to the second state.
In a further embodiment, the driving mechanism 500 may further include an elastic member 530, where the elastic member 530 is disposed in the lens holder 100, a distal end of the elastic member 530 abuts against the slider 510, and a proximal end of the elastic member 530 abuts against the limiting member 170 embedded in the proximal end of the first guide slot 130. The elastic member 530 may be a spring, and the elastic member 530 applies an elastic force to the slider 510 to make the slider 510 be in contact with the distal end of the first guide groove 130 when no traction force is applied to the traction rope, and the light shielding member 400 is in a first state of shielding the first window 110 when traction force is applied to the traction rope, and the slider 510 slides in the first guide groove 130 and compresses the elastic member 530 to switch the light shielding member 400 from the first state to the second state.
Based on the above-mentioned scheme, when no driving force is applied to the driving member 520, the light shielding member 400 is under the elastic force of the elastic member 530 and is in the first state, and the driving force needs to be applied to make the light shielding member 400 in the second state during the process of the endoscope penetrating into the body cavity, that is, the elastic member 530 is in the initial state, and the image capturing module 200 is viewed from the side. In this way, after the distal end of the endoscope reaches the target area, the operator can obtain the image information on the side of the lens holder 100 by himself only by removing the driving force applied to the driving member 520, so that the problem of inconvenience in operation, which is caused by the need of the operator to intentionally maintain the side view of the image capturing module 200, is avoided.
In some embodiments of the present application, referring to fig. 6, the driving element 520 may be a tubular member, which has a certain strength and rigidity in the axial direction, the distal end of the tubular member is fixedly connected to the sliding element 510, the distal end of the tubular member may extend to the operation handle at the proximal end of the endoscope, and the sliding of the sliding element 510 in the first guide slot 130 may be achieved by pulling or pushing the tubular member proximally, so as to drive the light shielding element 400 to switch between the first state and the second state.

In some embodiments of the present application, the hauling cable may further include a first hauling segment and a second hauling segment (not shown), wherein the first hauling segment is connected to the proximal end of the slider 510, and the second hauling segment is connected to the distal end of the slider 510 and extends at the operation handle of the bending backward and proximal end, such that pulling the first hauling segment can switch the shade 400 from the first state to the second state, and pulling the second hauling segment can switch the shade 400 from the second state to the first state. In a preferred embodiment, the slider 510 is in a damping sliding fit in the first guide slot 130, so that the light shielding member 400 can be prevented from uncontrollable rotation caused by interference of external human tissues and the like in the human body cavity, so that the light shielding member 400 can be stably maintained in the first state or the second state, and further the camera module 200 can obtain stable image information.
