Problems solved by technology

[0025] It should also be noted that we understand that endoscopic devices such as those described in CN20538610 U and US2007149856 A1 are not manufactured due to the impossibility of adaptation, so without modifying the product standard and conventional common parts , cannot be manufactured in this way; especially since there is not enough space

Embodiment Construction

[0071] With reference to the figures and according to the numbering used, the figures show a preferred exemplary embodiment of the invention comprising the parts and elements indicated and described in detail below.

[0072] The architecture of a rigid endoscope mainly includes 4 parts:

[0073] - outer tube(11)

[0074] -body(12)

[0075] - eyepieces (13)

[0076] - Lamp posts (14)

[0077] The outer tube (11) accommodates the inner tube (2) in which the lens (7), type 1 spacer (8), type 2 spacer (6) and objective lens system (5) are placed. The optical fiber (9) and the resistor (1) are located between the inner tube (2) and the outer tube (11). The resistor (1) is wound on the surface of the inner tube (2), and is fully bonded and insulated by high temperature resistant tape. Thus, the optical fiber (9) sits on the resistor (1) already wound on the inner tube (2), thereby occupying the remaining space up to the inner surface of the outer tube (11).

Abstract

The end result, with the combination of an anti-fogging system that can be thermoregulated by means of a micro controller, for rigid endoscopes, which is the subject matter of the invention, is to have an apparently standard rigid endoscope (fig. 4) that can withstand continuous temperature changes during surgical intervention, imparting value to the endoscopic device and preventing general fogging. With this thermoregulatable anti-fogging system, temperature levels can be controlled, it thereby being easy to prevent fogging / condensation in any intervention where a rigid endoscope is used, such as histeroscopy, cystoscopy, general surgery, arthroscopy, etc. Using the invention completely prevents the need for the surgeon to remove the endoscope from inside the patient in the middle of surgery. Thus, the surgeon does not become fatigued by continuous poor visibility. This reduces the duration of the intervention, optimising the process and providing the quality of vision anticipated for the endoscope in question.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of medical operation equipment, more specifically, relates to the field of minimally invasive surgery. [0002] The main object of the present invention is a system that can be temperature-regulated by a microcontroller, which can be implemented in the manufacturing process of any rigid endoscope. With this system we can control the temperature level at the distal end with the aim of preventing fogging / condensation during any intervention using rigid endoscopes (e.g. hysteroscopy, urology, general surgery, arthroscopy, etc.). Background technique [0003] Endoscopic surgery is a common and safe medical technique today. This is a surgical technique performed through a natural orifice, surgical incision, or injury to visualize a hollow organ or body cavity. Using the help of a video camera, the medical team can see the surgical area inside the patient and intervene in it. Light is transmitted through the fiberglass f...
