Description

一种插入部、内窥镜及驱动方法Insertion part, endoscope and driving method 技术领域technical field

本发明涉及一种内窥镜,尤其是涉及一种插入部、内窥镜及驱动方法。The present invention relates to an endoscope, in particular to an insertion part, an endoscope and a driving method.

背景技术Background technique

内窥镜是一种常用的医疗器械,能够直接进入人体自然管道的检查器械,可为医生提供充分的诊断信息以治疗疾病。使用时,内窥镜的插入部经人体的自然孔道或经手术做的小切口进入人体内,医生可直接窥视有关部位的变化。Endoscope is a commonly used medical device, an inspection device that can directly enter the natural pipeline of the human body, and can provide doctors with sufficient diagnostic information to treat diseases. When in use, the insertion part of the endoscope enters the human body through the natural orifice of the human body or through a small incision made by surgery, and the doctor can directly observe the changes of the relevant parts.

内窥镜的插入部一般包括蛇骨段、被动弯曲段、和插入管段。其中蛇骨段最软,插入管段最硬。现有的内窥镜深入到人体腔道内一般是通过向较硬的插入管端使力,从而使整个内窥镜在人体腔道内前进,是一种后驱动式的结构。但由于人体内的腔道,比如大肠和小肠,是非常弯曲的,插入管进去之后会使得大肠或小肠被绷直,给患者带来痛苦的体验。The insertion portion of an endoscope generally includes a snake section, a passive bending section, and an insertion tube section. Among them, the snake bone segment is the softest, and the insertion tube segment is the hardest. Existing endoscopes go deep into the human cavity generally by applying force to the harder insertion tube end, so that the entire endoscope advances in the human cavity, which is a rear-driven structure. However, since the lumens in the human body, such as the large intestine and the small intestine, are very curved, the insertion of the tube will cause the large intestine or small intestine to be straightened, which will bring a painful experience to the patient.

具体实施方式Detailed ways

以下的说明提供了许多不同的实施例、或是例子,用来实施本发明的不同特征。以下特定例子所描述的元件和排列方式,仅用来精简地表达本发明,其仅作为例子,而并非用以限制本发明。The following description provides many different embodiments, or examples, for implementing various features of the invention. The components and arrangements described in the following specific examples are only used to express the present invention in a concise manner, which are only examples and not intended to limit the present invention.

内窥镜是一种常用的医疗器械,能够直接进入人体自然管道的检查器械,可为医生提供充分的诊断信息以治疗疾病。使用时,内窥镜的插入部经人体的自然孔道或经手术做的小切口进入人体内,医生可直接窥视有关部位的变化。Endoscope is a commonly used medical device, an inspection device that can directly enter the natural pipeline of the human body, and can provide doctors with sufficient diagnostic information to treat diseases. When in use, the insertion part of the endoscope enters the human body through the natural orifice of the human body or through a small incision made by surgery, and the doctor can directly observe the changes of the relevant parts.

内窥镜的插入部一般包括蛇骨段、被动弯曲段、和插入管段。其中蛇骨段是由一个个蛇骨单元依次连接而成;而插入管段和被动完全断常常是由螺纹管形成,插入管段的螺纹螺距要大于被动弯曲管段的螺纹螺距,因此,现有的内窥镜的插入部中,插入管段最硬,被动弯曲管段次之,蛇骨段最软。The insertion portion of an endoscope generally includes a snake section, a passive bending section, and an insertion tube section. Among them, the snake bone section is formed by connecting snake bone units one by one; the insertion pipe section and the passive complete break are usually formed by threaded pipes, and the thread pitch of the insertion pipe section is greater than that of the passive bending pipe section. Therefore, the existing internal In the insertion part of the speculum, the insertion section is the hardest, followed by the passive bending section, and the snake bone section is the softest.

现有技术中,将内窥镜的插入部深入到人体腔道内,一般是通过向较硬的插入管段使力,从而使整个内窥镜的插入部在人体腔道内前进。因此,这种后驱动式的结构,就对内窥镜的插入管段的硬度有一定的要求。当内窥镜的插入管段的硬度较低时,会使得使用者无法从后端按照预定的腔道走向推进内窥镜,当插入管段的硬度较高时,由于人体内的腔道,比如大肠和小肠,是非常弯曲的,插入管进去之后会使得大肠或小肠被绷直,给患者带来痛苦的体验。In the prior art, the insertion part of the endoscope is inserted deep into the human body cavity, generally by applying force to a relatively hard insertion tube section, so that the entire insertion part of the endoscope advances in the body cavity. Therefore, this rear-drive structure has certain requirements on the hardness of the insertion tube section of the endoscope. When the hardness of the insertion tube section of the endoscope is low, the user cannot advance the endoscope from the rear end according to the predetermined lumen direction; when the hardness of the insertion tube section is high, due to the cavity in the human body, such as the large intestine And the small intestine is very curved. After inserting the tube, the large intestine or small intestine will be straightened, which will bring painful experience to the patient.

因此,急需提供一种拥有较低硬度的插入部,同时还可以实现内窥镜的插 入在人体腔道内的顺利推进。Therefore, there is an urgent need to provide an insertion portion with lower hardness, which can also realize the smooth advancement of the insertion of the endoscope in the human cavity.

需要提前说明的是,本发明中的“远端”和“近端”均是相对于内窥镜的手柄部而言,其中距离内窥镜的手柄部较近的一端称为“近端”,距离内窥镜手柄部较远的一端称为“远端”It needs to be explained in advance that the "distal end" and "near end" in the present invention are relative to the handle part of the endoscope, and the end closer to the handle part of the endoscope is called the "near end" , the end farther from the handle of the endoscope is called the "distal end"

鉴于此,本发明的一个实施例,如图1所示,提供了一种插入部,所述插入部包括:插入管1、第一径向变形体2、第一轴向变形体3和第二径向变形体4,所述第一轴向变形体3的两端分别与所述第一径向变形体2和第二径向变形体4固定连接,所述第二径向变形体4固定设置于所述插入管1的远端;In view of this, one embodiment of the present invention, as shown in FIG. 1 , provides an insertion part, which includes: an insertion tube 1, a first radial deformation body 2, a first axial deformation body 3 and a second Two radially deformable bodies 4, the two ends of the first axially deformable body 3 are respectively fixedly connected to the first radially deformable body 2 and the second radially deformable body 4, and the second radially deformable body 4 fixedly arranged at the distal end of the insertion tube 1;

所述第一径向变形体2和所述第二径向变形体4可变形至与所述插入管1的插入对象5的内壁相接触;所述第一轴向变形体3用于产生使所述第一径向变形体2靠近或远离所述第二径向变形体4的作用力。The first radially deformable body 2 and the second radially deformable body 4 can be deformed to contact with the inner wall of the insertion object 5 of the insertion tube 1; the first axially deformable body 3 is used to produce The first radially deformable body 2 approaches or moves away from the acting force of the second radially deformable body 4 .

上述方案中,插入部指的是柔性内窥镜除手柄部、电气连接线以外的部分。插入对象5可以为人体内的腔道,如人体的肠道,也可以为动物体内的腔道,下文以插入对象5为人体腔道为例进行说明。In the above solution, the insertion part refers to the part of the flexible endoscope other than the handle part and the electrical connection wire. The insertion object 5 may be a cavity in the human body, such as the intestinal tract of the human body, or a cavity in the animal body. The following description will be made by taking the insertion object 5 as the cavity of the human body as an example.

第一径向变形体2和第二径向变形体4在初始状态下,其外径小于插入人体腔道的内径。在变形状态下,第一径向变形体2和第二径向变形体4可沿其径向方向膨胀,第一径向变形体2和第二径向变形体4的最大膨胀直径大于人体腔道的内径。In the initial state, the first radially deformable body 2 and the second radially deformable body 4 have an outer diameter smaller than an inner diameter inserted into the cavity of a human body. In the deformed state, the first radially deformable body 2 and the second radially deformable body 4 can expand along their radial direction, and the maximum expansion diameter of the first radially deformable body 2 and the second radially deformable body 4 is larger than the body cavity inner diameter of the channel.

第一轴向变形体3在初始状态下,其轴向方向的长度较短。在变形状态下,第一轴向变形体3可沿其轴向方向膨胀,使其轴向方向的长度伸长。第一轴向变形体3的直径小于人体腔道的内径。In the initial state, the first axially deformable body 3 has a relatively short length in the axial direction. In the deformed state, the first axially deformable body 3 can be expanded along its axial direction to elongate its length in the axial direction. The diameter of the first axially deformable body 3 is smaller than the inner diameter of the body cavity.

现有技术中的内窥镜常通过手柄部向前推动,以将插入管1插入到人体的腔道内。与现有技术不同的是,上述方案中采用了一种前驱动式的方案实现插入部在人体腔道内的推进。具体地:The endoscope in the prior art is often pushed forward by the handle part to insert the insertion tube 1 into the cavity of the human body. Different from the prior art, the above-mentioned solution adopts a front-driven solution to realize the advancement of the insertion part in the cavity of the human body. specifically:

在初始状态下,可以通过手柄端用力推进的方式,将包含第一径向变形体2、第一轴向变形体3和第二径向变形体4的插入管1段插入人体腔道内;In the initial state, the insertion tube section 1 including the first radial deformable body 2, the first axial deformable body 3 and the second radially deformable body 4 can be inserted into the human cavity by forcefully pushing the handle end;

第一步:使第一径向变形体2在其径向方向变形至与插入对象5的内壁接触,且使第一径向变形体2相对于插入对象5不可移动;Step 1: deform the first radially deformable body 2 in its radial direction to contact with the inner wall of the insertion object 5, and make the first radially deformable body 2 immovable relative to the insertion object 5;

第二步:使第一轴向变形体3沿其轴向方向发生变形,由于第一轴向变形体3的另一端与第二径向变形体4及插入管1的远端固定连接,从而可带动第二径向变形体4及插入管1向前前进;Step 2: deform the first axially deformable body 3 along its axial direction, because the other end of the first axially deformable body 3 is fixedly connected with the second radially deformable body 4 and the distal end of the insertion tube 1, thus It can drive the second radial deformation body 4 and the insertion tube 1 forward;

第三步:当第二径向变形体4的前进运动停止时,使所述第二径向变形体4在其径向方向变形至与插入对象5的内壁接触,且使第二径向变形体4相对于插入对象5不可移动;Step 3: When the forward movement of the second radially deformable body 4 stops, deform the second radially deformable body 4 in its radial direction to contact with the inner wall of the insertion object 5, and deform the second radially Body 4 is not movable relative to insertion object 5;

第四步:使第一径向变形体2径向方向收缩,与人体腔道的内壁分离;同时使第一轴向变形体3在轴向方向收缩,使第一轴向变形体3在轴向方向缩短,从而拉动第一径向变形体2靠近第二径向变形体4运动;Step 4: Make the first radial deformable body 2 shrink in the radial direction and separate from the inner wall of the human cavity; at the same time make the first axial deformable body 3 shrink in the axial direction, so that the first axial deformable body 3 is in the axial direction Shorten in the direction, thereby pulling the first radially deformable body 2 to move close to the second radially deformable body 4;

第五步:当第一径向变形体2的靠近运动停止时,使第二径向变形体4径向方向收缩,与人体腔道的内壁分离;Step 5: When the approaching movement of the first radially deformable body 2 stops, the second radially deformable body 4 is shrunk in the radial direction and separated from the inner wall of the human cavity;

在执行完上述五步之后,插入部在插入对象5内便完成了一次前进动作,当需要继续实现插入部的前进时,重复上述步骤一至步骤五即可。After performing the above five steps, the insertion part has completed a forward movement in the insertion object 5. When it is necessary to continue to realize the advancement of the insertion part, repeat the above steps 1 to 5.

与现有技术不同的是,上述方案中采用了一种完全不同于现有技术的前驱动式的方案。通过在插入管1的远端外壁上设置第一径向变形体2、第一轴向变形体3、第二径向变形体4,通过控制第一轴向变形体3在插入管1轴向方向的收缩与扩张,实现了第一径向变形体2和第二径向变形体4之间的远离和靠近,实现了插入管1在插入对象5内的爬行式前进。这种驱动方式由于不需要从插入管1传递推力,因此对插入管1的硬度要求较低,因此可以将插入管1设置的较软,整个插入部在插入对象5内很容易变形,从而在使用内窥镜时,可以尽量减小对患者带来的痛苦。Different from the prior art, the above solution adopts a front-drive solution that is completely different from the prior art. By setting the first radial deformation body 2, the first axial deformation body 3, and the second radial deformation body 4 on the outer wall of the distal end of the insertion tube 1, by controlling the first axial deformation body 3 in the axial direction of the insertion tube 1 The contraction and expansion in the direction realize the separation and closeness between the first radial deformation body 2 and the second radial deformation body 4 , and realize the crawling advancement of the insertion tube 1 in the insertion object 5 . Since this driving method does not need to transmit thrust from the insertion tube 1, it has lower requirements on the hardness of the insertion tube 1, so the insertion tube 1 can be set softer, and the entire insertion part is easily deformed in the insertion object 5. When using an endoscope, the pain to the patient can be minimized.

进一步地,所述第一径向变形体2和所述第二径向变形体4均为球形气囊。Further, both the first radially deformable body 2 and the second radially deformable body 4 are spherical airbags.

球囊式第一径向变形体2和第二径向变形体4,在未充气状态下,其外径较小,且小于插入对象5的内径;The outer diameter of the balloon-type first radially deformable body 2 and the second radially deformable body 4 is smaller and smaller than the inner diameter of the insertion object 5 in an uninflated state;

当需要将第一径向变形体2与插入对象5的内壁之间进行定位时,则可向第一径向变形体2内充入气体,使第一径向变形体2在径向方向上膨胀,当膨胀至与插入对象5的内壁贴合时,再向第一径向变形体2充入少许气体,第一径向变形体2会对插入对象5的内壁产生轻微挤压,从而使第一径向变形体2抵紧插入对象5的内壁,不易移动。When it is necessary to position between the first radially deformable body 2 and the inner wall of the insertion object 5, gas can be filled into the first radially deformable body 2 to make the first radially deformable body 2 move in the radial direction. Inflate, when it expands to fit the inner wall of the insertion object 5, then fill a little gas into the first radial deformation body 2, the first radial deformation body 2 will slightly squeeze the inner wall of the insertion object 5, so that The first radially deformable body 2 abuts against the inner wall of the insertion object 5 and is not easy to move.

同理,当需要将第二径向变形体4与插入对象5的内壁之间进行定位时,则可向第二径向变形体4内充入气体,使第二径向变形体4在径向方向上膨胀,当膨胀至与插入对象5的内壁贴合时,再向第二径向变形体4充入少许气体,第二径向变形体4会对插入对象5的内壁产生轻微挤压,从而使第二径向变形体4抵紧插入对象5的内壁,不易移动。Similarly, when the second radially deformable body 4 needs to be positioned between the inner wall of the insertion object 5, gas can be filled into the second radially deformable body 4, so that the second radially deformable body 4 Expand in the direction, and when it expands to fit the inner wall of the insertion object 5, then fill a little gas into the second radial deformation body 4, and the second radial deformation body 4 will slightly squeeze the inner wall of the insertion object 5 , so that the second radially deformable body 4 is pressed against the inner wall of the insertion object 5 and is difficult to move.

进一步地,所述第一轴向变形体3为条形气囊。其套接于所述插入管1的外壁上,所述条形气囊的一端固定连接于所述第一径向变形体2的球形气囊,所述条形气囊的另一端固定连接于所述第二径向变形体4的球形气囊,Further, the first axial deformation body 3 is a strip-shaped airbag. It is sleeved on the outer wall of the insertion tube 1, one end of the strip-shaped airbag is fixedly connected to the spherical airbag of the first radial deformation body 2, and the other end of the strip-shaped airbag is fixedly connected to the first The spherical air bag of two radial deformation bodies 4,

当需要使第一轴向变形体3使所述第一径向变形体2远离所述第二径向变形体4的作用力时,则向第一轴向变形体3内充入气体,使第一轴向变形体3在轴向方向上膨胀,从而使第一径向变形体2和所述第二径向变形体4之间的相对距离变远。When it is necessary to make the first axially deformable body 3 keep the first radially deformable body 2 away from the acting force of the second radially deformable body 4, then fill the first axially deformable body 3 with gas, so that The first axially deformable body 3 expands in the axial direction, so that the relative distance between the first radially deformable body 2 and said second radially deformable body 4 becomes longer.

在此基础上,当需要使第一轴向变形体3使所述第一径向变形体2靠近所述第二径向变形体4的作用力时,则对第一轴向变形体3放气,使第一轴向变形体3在轴向方向上收缩,从而使第一径向变形体2和所述第二径向变形体4之间的相对距离变近。On this basis, when the first axially deformable body 3 is required to make the first radially deformable body 2 approach the second radially deformable body 4, the first axially deformable body 3 is placed The air makes the first axially deformable body 3 shrink in the axial direction, so that the relative distance between the first radially deformable body 2 and the second radially deformable body 4 becomes closer.

由于所述第二径向变形体4固定连接于插入管1的外壁上,因此,可以将第一轴向变形体3靠近第二径向变形体4的一端直接固定连接到第二径向变形体45的球形气囊上;当然,也可以将第一轴向变形体3靠近第二径向变形体4的一端直接固定连接至第二径向变形体4近端侧的插入管1上。只要保持第一轴向变形体3与第二径向变形体4的之间的相对位置不变即可。Since the second radially deformable body 4 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the insertion tube 1, the end of the first axially deformable body 3 close to the second radially deformable body 4 can be directly fixedly connected to the second radially deformable body 4. Of course, one end of the first axially deformable body 3 close to the second radially deformable body 4 can also be directly fixedly connected to the insertion tube 1 on the proximal side of the second radially deformable body 4 . As long as the relative position between the first axially deformable body 3 and the second radially deformable body 4 remains unchanged.

另外,可以只在第一径向变形体2的远侧端面固定设置一个第一轴向变形体3,也可以在第一径向变形体2的近侧端面和远侧端面分别固定设置一个第一轴向变形体3,具体如何设置,需根据第一径向变形体2的数量来定。In addition, one first axially deformable body 3 may be fixedly arranged only on the distal end surface of the first radially deformable body 2, or one first axially deformable body 3 may be fixedly arranged on the proximal end surface and the distal end surface of the first radially deformable body 2 respectively. An axial deformation body 3 , how to set it up depends on the quantity of the first radial deformation body 2 .

实际应用中,为了便于装配,可以将第二径向变形体4和第一径向变形体2设置为结构、材质、形状等均完全相同的两球形气囊。In practical application, in order to facilitate assembly, the second radially deformable body 4 and the first radially deformable body 2 can be set as two spherical airbags with the same structure, material and shape.

进一步地,所述第一径向变形体2的数量为一。Further, the number of the first radial deformation body 2 is one.

上述方案中,当第一径向变形体2的数量为一时,实现上述插入部在人体腔道内运动的原理如下:In the above solution, when the number of the first radially deformable body 2 is one, the principle of realizing the movement of the insertion part in the human cavity is as follows:

在初始状态下,可以通过手柄端用力推进的方式,将包含第一径向变形体2、第一轴向变形体3和第二径向变形体4的插入管1段插入人体腔道内;In the initial state, the insertion tube section 1 including the first radial deformable body 2, the first axial deformable body 3 and the second radially deformable body 4 can be inserted into the human cavity by forcefully pushing the handle end;

第一步:向第一径向变形体2内充气,使其在径向方向膨胀,直至与插入对象5的内壁接触,继续给第一径向变形体2内充入少许气体,使第一径向变形体2对插入对象5的内壁产生轻微挤压,从而将第一径向变形体2定位于插入对象5的内壁内,使第一径向变形体2相对于插入对象5不可移动;Step 1: Inflate the first radially deformable body 2 with air so that it expands in the radial direction until it contacts the inner wall of the insertion object 5, and continue to fill the first radially deformable body 2 with a little gas to make the first The radial deformation body 2 slightly squeezes the inner wall of the insertion object 5, thereby positioning the first radial deformation body 2 in the inner wall of the insertion object 5, so that the first radial deformation body 2 cannot move relative to the insertion object 5;

第二步:向第一轴向变形体3内充入气体,使其在轴向方向上膨胀,由于第一轴向变形体3的另一端与第二径向变形体4及插入管1的远端固定连接,从而可带动第二径向变形体4及插入管1向前前进;Step 2: Fill gas into the first axial deformation body 3 to make it expand in the axial direction, because the other end of the first axial deformation body 3 and the second radial deformation body 4 and the insertion tube 1 The distal end is fixedly connected so as to drive the second radially deformable body 4 and the insertion tube 1 forward;

第三步:当第二径向变形体4的前进运动停止时,向所述第二径向变形体4内充入气体,使第二径向变形体4在径向方向膨胀,直至与插入对象5的内壁接触,继续给第二径向变形体4内充入少许气体,使第二径向变形体4对插入对象5的内壁产生轻微挤压,从而将第二径向变形体4定位于插入对象5的内壁内,使第二径向变形体4相对于插入对象5不可移动;Step 3: When the forward movement of the second radially deformable body 4 stops, gas is filled into the second radially deformable body 4 to expand the second radially deformable body 4 in the radial direction until it is inserted The inner wall of the object 5 is in contact, and continue to fill a little gas into the second radially deformable body 4, so that the second radially deformable body 4 slightly squeezes the inner wall of the inserted object 5, thereby positioning the second radially deformable body 4 within the inner wall of the insertion object 5, making the second radially deformable body 4 immovable relative to the insertion object 5;

第四步:同时,对使第一径向变形体2进行放气,使其在径向方向收缩,与人体腔道的内壁分离;同时对第一轴向变形体3进行放气,使其在轴向方向收缩,由于第一轴向变形体3在轴向方向变短,从而拉动第一径向变形体2靠近第二径向变形体4运动;Step 4: At the same time, deflate the first radial deformation body 2 so that it shrinks in the radial direction and separate from the inner wall of the human cavity; at the same time, deflate the first axial deformation body 3 to make it Shrinking in the axial direction, since the first axial deformation body 3 becomes shorter in the axial direction, the first radial deformation body 2 is pulled to move close to the second radial deformation body 4;

第五步:当第一径向变形体2的靠近运动停止时,对第二径向变形体4进行放气,使其在径向方向收缩,与人体腔道的内壁分离;Step 5: When the approaching motion of the first radially deformable body 2 stops, the second radially deformable body 4 is deflated to shrink in the radial direction and separate from the inner wall of the human cavity;

在执行完上述五步之后,插入部在插入对象5内便完成了一次前进动作,当需要继续实现插入部的前进时,重复上述步骤一至步骤五即可。After performing the above five steps, the insertion part has completed a forward movement in the insertion object 5. When it is necessary to continue to realize the advancement of the insertion part, repeat the above steps 1 to 5.

进一步地,所述第一径向变形体2的数量大于一,相邻的所述第一径向变形体2之间通过所述条形气囊连接。Further, the number of the first radially deformable bodies 2 is greater than one, and the adjacent first radially deformable bodies 2 are connected by the strip-shaped airbags.

当插入管1的外壁上设有多个第一径向变形体2时,多个第一径向变形体2依次设置于第二变形体的近端侧,且相邻的两第一径向变形体2之间通过第一轴向变形体3实现连接。When the outer wall of the insertion tube 1 is provided with a plurality of first radially deformable bodies 2, the plurality of first radially deformable bodies 2 are sequentially arranged on the proximal side of the second deformable body, and two adjacent first radially deformable bodies The deformation bodies 2 are connected through the first axial deformation body 3 .

设置多个第一径向变形体2实现插入部前进的原理与设置一个第一径向变形体2实现插入部前进的原理相同,不同在于,设置多个第一径向变形体2可以实现插入部一次实现更远距离的前进,以下,将以第一径向变形体2的数量为二,对其驱动原理进行说明:The principle of setting a plurality of first radial deformation bodies 2 to realize the advancement of the insertion part is the same as the principle of setting one first radial deformation body 2 to realize the advancement of the insertion part. The difference is that setting multiple first radial deformation bodies 2 can realize the insertion The first radially deformable body 2 can achieve a longer distance at one time. In the following, the driving principle will be described with the number of the first radially deformable bodies 2 being two:

在初始状态下,可以通过手柄端用力推进的方式,将包含第一径向变形体2、第一轴向变形体3和第二径向变形体4的插入管1段插入人体腔道内;In the initial state, the insertion tube section 1 including the first radial deformable body 2, the first axial deformable body 3 and the second radially deformable body 4 can be inserted into the human cavity by forcefully pushing the handle end;

第一步:选择处于第一位置的(即图8最左端位置)第一径向变形体2作为目标气囊,向目标气囊内充气,使其在径向方向膨胀,直至与插入对象5的内壁接触,继续给第一径向变形体2内充入少许气体,使第一径向变形体2对插入对象5的内壁产生轻微挤压,从而将第一径向变形体2定位于插入对象5的内壁内,使第一径向变形体2相对于插入对象5不可移动;Step 1: Select the first radially deformable body 2 at the first position (that is, the leftmost position in FIG. 8 ) as the target airbag, and inflate the target airbag so that it expands in the radial direction until it meets the inner wall of the insertion object 5 Contact, continue to fill the first radial deformation body 2 with a little gas, so that the first radial deformation body 2 will slightly squeeze the inner wall of the insertion object 5, thereby positioning the first radial deformation body 2 on the insertion object 5 within the inner wall of the first radially deformable body 2 relative to the insertion object 5 immovable;

第二步:向所有的条形气囊内充入气体,使其在轴向方向上膨胀,从而处于第二位置的第一径向变形体2将相对于处于第一位置的第一径向变形体2远离距离L(L为条形气囊膨胀前和膨胀后的长度变化),在此基础上,第二径向变形体4将带动插入管1相对于处于第二位置的第一径向变形体2远离距离L;如此,第二径向变形体4相对于处于第一位置的第一径向变形体2运动的距离总共为2L。Step 2: Inflate gas into all strip-shaped airbags to make them expand in the axial direction, so that the first radially deformable body 2 in the second position will deform relative to the first radially deformable body in the first position The body 2 is far away from the distance L (L is the length change of the strip-shaped airbag before and after expansion), on this basis, the second radial deformation body 4 will drive the insertion tube 1 relative to the first radial deformation in the second position. The bodies 2 are separated by a distance L; thus, the second radially deformable body 4 moves a total distance of 2L relative to the first radially deformable body 2 in the first position.

第三步:当第二径向变形体4的前进运动停止时,向所述第二径向变形体4内充入气体,使第二径向变形体4在径向方向膨胀,直至与插入对象5的内壁接触,继续给第二径向变形体4内充入少许气体,使第二径向变形体4对插入对象5的内壁产生轻微挤压,从而将第二径向变形体4定位于插入对象5的内壁内,使第二径向变形体4相对于插入对象5不可移动;Step 3: When the forward movement of the second radially deformable body 4 stops, gas is filled into the second radially deformable body 4 to expand the second radially deformable body 4 in the radial direction until it is inserted The inner wall of the object 5 is in contact, and continue to fill a little gas into the second radially deformable body 4, so that the second radially deformable body 4 slightly squeezes the inner wall of the inserted object 5, thereby positioning the second radially deformable body 4 within the inner wall of the insertion object 5, making the second radially deformable body 4 immovable relative to the insertion object 5;

第四步:同时,对使第一径向变形体2进行放气,使其在径向方向收缩,与人体腔道的内壁分离;同时对条形气囊进行放气,使其在轴向方向收缩,由于条形气囊在轴向方向变短,从而拉动第一径向变形体2靠近第二径向变形体4运动;Step 4: At the same time, deflate the first radially deformable body 2 so that it shrinks in the radial direction and separates from the inner wall of the human cavity; Contraction, because the strip-shaped airbag becomes shorter in the axial direction, thereby pulling the first radially deformable body 2 to move closer to the second radially deformable body 4;

第五步:当第一径向变形体2的靠近运动停止时,对第二径向变形体4进行放气,使其在径向方向收缩,与人体腔道的内壁分离;Step 5: When the approaching motion of the first radially deformable body 2 stops, the second radially deformable body 4 is deflated to shrink in the radial direction and separate from the inner wall of the human cavity;

在执行完上述五步之后,插入部在插入对象5内便完成了一次前进动作,当需要继续实现插入部的前进时,重复上述步骤一至步骤五即可。After performing the above five steps, the insertion part has completed a forward movement in the insertion object 5. When it is necessary to continue to realize the advancement of the insertion part, repeat the above steps 1 to 5.

需要说明的是,可以选择处于不同位置的第一径向变形体2作为目标气囊;如上述方案中选择处于第一位置的(即图8最左端位置)第一径向变形体2作为目标气囊,当然根据一次所需实现的插入管1的前进距离,也可以选择处于第二位置(即图8中左起第二个第一径向变形体2)或其他位置的第一径向变形体2作为目标气囊,重复执行上述步骤。It should be noted that the first radially deformable body 2 at different positions can be selected as the target airbag; as in the above scheme, the first radially deformable body 2 at the first position (ie, the leftmost position in FIG. 8 ) is selected as the target airbag , of course, according to the advance distance of the insertion tube 1 that needs to be realized once, the first radial deformation body in the second position (that is, the second first radial deformation body 2 from the left in Fig. 8 ) or other positions can also be selected. 2 As the target airbag, repeat the above steps.

进一步地,所述插入管1内设有第二气管通道,所述第二气管通道与所述第二径向变形体4连通。在插入管1与第二径向变形体4相对应的位置上设有通气孔(未图示),第二气管通道通过通气孔实现与第二径向变形体4的连通,对其进行充气和放气。Further, the insertion tube 1 is provided with a second trachea channel, and the second trachea channel communicates with the second radially deformable body 4 . A ventilation hole (not shown) is provided at the position corresponding to the insertion tube 1 and the second radially deformable body 4, and the second tracheal channel realizes communication with the second radially deformable body 4 through the vent hole, and inflates it and deflate.

进一步地,所述第一轴向变形体3的外径小于所述第一径向变形体2和所述第二径向变形体4的外径。使得在第一轴向变形体3的轴向方法发生膨胀时, 不会与插入对象5的内壁接触。Further, the outer diameter of the first axial deformation body 3 is smaller than the outer diameters of the first radial deformation body 2 and the second radial deformation body 4 . So that when the axial direction of the first axially deformable body 3 expands, it will not contact the inner wall of the insertion object 5 .
