Then, according to Fig. 5 (a)~(h) operational approach of two sacculus formula endoscope apparatus is described.
At first, shown in Fig. 5 (a), covering with sleeve pipe 50 under the state of insertion section 12, insertion section 12 is being inserted in the intestinal (for example descendant duodenum) 70.At this moment, make the 1st sacculus 30 and the 2nd sacculus 60 be in contraction state.
Then, shown in Fig. 5 (b), be inserted on the top 58 of sleeve pipe 50 under the state of bending section of intestinal 70, gas be provided and make its expansion to the 2nd sacculus 60.Thus, the 2nd sacculus 60 cards end in intestinal 70, and the top 58 of sleeve pipe 50 is fixed in the intestinal 70.
Then, shown in Fig. 5 (c), only the insertion section 12 of endoscope 10 is inserted into the deep of intestinal 70.Then, shown in Fig. 5 (d), gas is provided and makes it expansion to the 1st sacculus 30.Thus, the 1st sacculus 30 is fixed in the intestinal 70.At this moment, the size when the 1st sacculus 30 expands is less than the 2nd sacculus 60, so it is less to impose on the burden of intestinal 70, thereby can prevent intestinal 70 damages.
Then, attract gas and the 2nd sacculus 60 is shunk, shown in Fig. 5 (e), push sleeve pipe 50 then, and make it 12 insertions along the insertion section from the 2nd sacculus 60.Then, the top 58 of sleeve pipe 50 is pushed into the 1st sacculus 30 near after, shown in Fig. 5 (f), gas is provided and makes its expansion to the 2nd sacculus 60.Thus, the 2nd sacculus 60 is fixed in the intestinal 70.That is, grip intestinal 70 by the 2nd sacculus 60.
Then, shown in Fig. 5 (g), the sleeve pipe 50 of pulling back.Thus, intestinal 70 roughly shrinks as the crow flies, the unnecessary deflection of sleeve pipe 50 or crooked the disappearance.And when pulling back sleeve pipe 50, the 1st sacculus 30 and the 2nd sacculus 60 all block and end in intestinal 70, but the frictional resistance of the 1st sacculus 30 is less than the frictional resistance of the 2nd sacculus 60.Therefore, even the 1st sacculus 30 and the 2nd sacculus 60 are relative to separately moving, little the 1st sacculus 30 of frictional resistance also relatively intestinal 70 slide, so intestinal 70 can be not impaired because of the tractive of two sacculus 30,60.
Then, shown in Fig. 5 (h), attract gas and the 1st sacculus 30 is shunk from the 1st sacculus 30.Then, as much as possible the top ends 36 of insertion section 12 is inserted into the deep of intestinal 70.That is, carry out the insertion operation shown in Fig. 5 (c) once more.Thus, the top ends 36 of insertion section 12 can be inserted into the deep of intestinal 70.When further insertion section 12 being inserted into the deep, after carrying out the fixing operation shown in Fig. 5 (d), carry out the push operation shown in Fig. 5 (e), so carry out the holding operation shown in Fig. 5 (f) repeatedly in order, the pullback operation shown in Fig. 5 (g), the operation of the insertion shown in Fig. 5 (h) get final product.Thus, can further be inserted into insertion section 12 deep of intestinal 70.
In possessing two sacculus formula endoscope apparatus of such sleeve pipe 50,, make sleeve pipe 50 long lifetimes of embodiment by improving the slotting general character and the permanent hydrophilic coating material that keeps in the intestinal (organism) 70 of bending.
Promptly, as shown in Figure 6, in pitch tube (using the symbol identical 51 to represent for convenience here) 51 with tube body as the base material of sleeve pipe 50, about the hydrophilic coating material 80 that applies on the side face within it so that thickness from base end part to top 58 gradually the mode of thickening apply.Like this, can keep comprising near its hydrophilic coating 80 on top 58 for a long time, and stand life-time service.
As shown in Figure 6, change hydrophilic coating material 80 thickness part, relatively the length of pitch tube 51 total lengths be from the top 58 beginnings to cardinal extremity about 1/3 to roughly 1/2.The top ends of sleeve pipe 50 is compared with its base end part, more weares and teares more violently with top ends 36 frictions of the endoscope insertion part 12 that inserts.Therefore, compare, top ends and near the overlapping more coating lubricating coating of part material 80 thereof with other parts.When overlapping coating lubricating coating material 80 on whole sleeve pipe 50, hydrophilic coating material 80 thickens until otiose part, so that to fashionable crooked especially easily top ends to 1/3 of body cavity interpolation and even the part thickening of half roughly.This is because sweep especially rubs with the top ends 36 of endoscope insertion part 12.The maneuver that changes the thickness of hydrophilic coating material 80 is on pitch tube 51 after the coating hydrophilic coating material 80, can be only by making pitch tube 51 top 58 infra and carry out drying and realize.That is, this is because in the dry run of hydrophilic coating material 80, and hydrophilic coating material 80 is because deadweight and the sagging drying of carrying out simultaneously, and the thickness of hydrophilic coating material 80 is more to top 58 thickening more thus.In addition, though the thickness of hydrophilic coating material from cardinal extremity to top 58 thickening gradually, also can obtain same effect.
Fig. 7 is the cutaway view of other embodiment of the sleeve pipe 50 of presentation graphs 6.The pitch tube 51 of the sleeve pipe 50 of Fig. 7, its inboard is made of 2 kinds of members of soft member 51B hardened member 51A, the outside.In addition, the thickness of top 58 sides of hardened member 51A is than the thin thickness of base end side, and soft member 51B is opposite with it simultaneously, is harmonious by the outer peripheral face with hardened member 51A, make the wall thickness of sleeve pipe 50 certain in length range, improve the flexibility of top 58 sides of sleeve pipe 50.
Like this, because top ends 58 and near counteracting force thereof reduce, so and the reduction of the frictional resistance between the organism of bending, the insertion raising of sleeve pipe 50 relative organisms.In addition, the hydrophilic coating material 80 about the inner peripheral surface that is coated in hardened member 51A equally makes the thickness of top 58 sides thicker than the thickness of base end side with Fig. 6, stands life-time service so can keep hydrophilic coating material 81 for a long time.And then by hardened member 51A is disposed at the inboard, the top ends 36 of endoscope insertion part 12 is absorbed in the inner face of sleeve pipe 50, and is rare when this situation is soft member than inner face, so further improve the slotting general character of endoscope insertion part 12.
Wherein, in embodiment,, but be not limited to this, the sliding tube that also can use per anum to insert as the sleeve pipe 50 that inserted the assistive device illustration.
Fig. 8 be illustrated in coating hydrophilic coating material 80 on the outer peripheral face of endoscope insertion part 12 and this hydrophilic coating material 80 thickness from the insertion section 12 base end part (end that is connected with the hand-held portion 14 of Fig. 1) to top ends (end of the 1st sacculus 30 is installed) 13 partial sectional view of the example of thickening gradually.
Like this, about the hydrophilic coating material 80 on the outer peripheral face that is coated in endoscope insertion part 12, the thickness of direction of insertion top ends 13 sides by making endoscope insertion part 12 is thicker than the thickness of direction of insertion base end part side, can keep hydrophilic coating material 80 for a long time and stands life-time service.By being used in combination the endoscope insertion part 12 and the sleeve pipe that applies hydrophilic coating material 80 50 shown in Fig. 6,7 that applies hydrophilic coating material 80, can further prolong the service life of both sides' lubricating coating material 80.
Fig. 9 is a partial sectional view of representing only to make the example that the thickness of the hydrophilic coating material 80 of endoscope insertion part 12 thickens at head portion.In the figure, the part that the applied thickness of hydrophilic coating material 80 is thicker is the direction of insertion head portion of endoscope insertion part 12, is the part 12A of length L of top 58 plug of relative sleeve pipe 50.In insertion section 12, part 1 2A of this length L is the part that interior all bight 59A of the peristome 59 that forms with top 58 at sleeve pipe 50 slip, and from lubricating coating material 80, is part stressed on direction of delaminate.Thereby, thicker by the thickness that makes the hydrophilic coating material 80 that on the part 12A of length L, applies at least than other parts, can reach purpose of the present invention, promptly keep hydrophilic coating material 80 for a long time and stand life-time service.
On the other hand, as shown in Figure 6, outer peripheral face at sleeve pipe 50 also applies lubricating coating material 80, and the coefficient of friction of the outer peripheral face of the sleeve pipe 50 of this coating is set to 5~30% with respect to the coefficient of friction on the surface of the 2nd sacculus 60 of uncoated lubricating coating material.In embodiment, the lubricating coating material 80 of sleeve pipe 50 be polyvinylpyrrolidone (frictional resistance μ: 0.08), the 2nd sacculus 60 be natural rubber (frictional resistance μ: 0.5), so be set at 16%.
But the two sacculus formula endoscope apparatus with the 1st sacculus 30 and the 2nd sacculus 60 push often to endoceliac, become important so reduce the frictional resistance of the outer peripheral face of the sleeve pipe 50 that contacts with the body cavity wall.On the other hand, expand and when connecting airtight in the body cavity wall at the 2nd sacculus 60, guarantee and the body cavity wall between friction and obtain sufficient retentivity and become important.
Under such background, by coating lubricating coating material on the outer peripheral face of sleeve pipe 50, when the frictional resistance that makes relative body cavity wall descended, regulation guaranteed that relatively the 2nd sacculus 60 of big frictional resistance has suitable frictional resistance.That is, the frictional resistance of relative the 2nd sacculus 60 is defined as 5~30% with the frictional resistance of outer peripheral face that applies the sleeve pipe 50 of lubricating coating material.If this frictional resistance is below 5%, sleeve pipe 50 is with respect to patient's the hands of operation sleeve pipe 50 and too smooth, so become the reason of maloperation.In addition, if frictional resistance is more than 30%, the plug variation of relative body cavity wall.Thereby, by above-mentioned frictional resistance is defined as 5~30%, the plug of sleeve pipe 50 relative body cavitys is carried out well.And then, by being defined as 12~16%, the plug of sleeve pipe 50 relative body cavitys is carried out more well.
Although be repeat specification, but as shown in Figure 5, the sleeve pipe 50 of two sacculus formula endoscope apparatus that relative intestinal (body cavity) 70 moves around repeatedly, except relative endoscope insertion part 12 has the sliding, also need (1) sliding height of body cavity walls relatively, (2) have the flexibility of appropriateness, the toughness that (3) have appropriate intensity.
As the base material of sleeve pipe 50, can be enumerated as politef, polyurethanes, vinyl chloride, synthetic rubber, although politef has essential condition (1), (3), do not satisfy essential condition (2).In addition,, do not satisfy essential condition (1),, do not satisfy essential condition (1), (3) although synthetic rubber satisfies essential condition (2) although polyurethanes and vinyl chloride satisfy essential condition (2), (3).Therefore,, think by being coated with the lubricating coating material at its outer peripheral face and can eliminating, select to satisfy the polyurethanes of essential condition (2), (3) and vinyl chloride base material as sleeve pipe 50 about essential condition (1).
On the other hand,, can enumerate (A) and obtain sufficient sliding for the essential condition of lubricating coating material requirements, (B) and the phasic property between the base material good.
As the lubricating coating material, can be enumerated as polyvinylpyrrolidone, lignocaine colloid (xylocaine jelly), olive oil.Polyvinylpyrrolidone is for the good especially effect of essential condition (A) performance, and for essential condition (B), and the phasic property between the polyurethanes is good, but for vinyl chloride, not good phasic property as polyurethanes.In addition, the lignocaine colloid can not satisfy essential condition (A), and is for essential condition (B), all good with the phasic property of polyurethanes and vinyl chloride.Olive oil can not satisfy essential condition (A) too, and is for essential condition (B), all good with the phasic property of polyurethanes and vinyl chloride.
Based on The above results, the sleeve pipe 50 of embodiment can use the material that the coating polyvinylpyrrolidone forms on polyurethanes.
In addition, coating hydrophilic coating material 80 on the outer peripheral face of endoscope insertion part 12, the coefficient of friction of this outer peripheral face guarantees that relatively the coefficient of friction of the 1st sacculus 30 of big frictional resistance is set to 5~30%.If frictional resistance is below 5%, sleeve pipe 50 is with respect to patient's the hands of operation sleeve pipe 50 and too smooth, so become the reason of maloperation.In addition, if frictional resistance is more than 30%, endoscope insertion part 12 is with respect to the plug variation of body cavity wall.Thereby, by above-mentioned frictional resistance is defined as 5~30%, the plug of endoscope insertion part 12 relative body cavitys is carried out well.And then, by being defined as 12~1 6%, the plug of endoscope insertion part 12 relative body cavitys is carried out more well.
Wherein, the endoscope apparatus of embodiment is that two sacculus formula endoscope apparatus are described, monomer for sleeve pipe 50 with sacculus, for the monomer of the endoscope insertion part 12 with sacculus, the frictional resistance with this outer peripheral face is defined as 5~30% of sacculus for the foregoing reasons and preferably in addition.
