摘要:
The present invention relates to an electronic circuit board assembly for a medical device, the assembly comprising a base board (3805), a first frame (3810) including an opening (3841a), a top surface (3842a), a bottom surface (3843a), and a protrusion (3844a) extending from the bottom surface (3843a), wherein the first frame (3810) is configured to receive a first sensor (3802) and a first printed circuit board (3817), wherein the first frame (3810) is positioned at one end of the base board (3805), and a first lens assembly coupled to the first frame (3810), and wherein the protrusion (3844a) extends through an opening (3806) in the base board (3805).
摘要:
A disposable air/water valve for an endoscope, including a shaft having a passage from an opening to a vent. The shaft has grooves and ridges and a protrusion formed at the vent. Seals are set within some of the grooves. An inner ring, having a diaphragm, extends from an outer circumference of the inner ring to an internal circumference of an outer cap. Hinges extend vertically downward from the diaphragm and ribs are formed along the internal circumference of the outer cap. A button cap has an internal ring that securely attaches to the shaft. A resilient member is securely disposed between the button cap and the diaphragm. The outer cap, inner ring, and internal ring of the button cap define a central bore to accommodate the shaft therein.

An image capturing assembly for use in an endoscope includes a manifold with a base and a casing extending outward from the base, a partially enclosed housing adapted to physically attach to the manifold, a foldable LED carrier substrate capable of carrying a plurality of LEDs, a flexible optical carrier substrate capable of carrying a plurality of camera sensors, and a tip cover adapted to cover the manifold, housing, LED carrier substrate, and optical carrier substrate. The manifold includes at least one continuous channel extending throughout its length. The foldable LED carrier substrate includes a central, forward facing portion, adapted to carry at least one illuminator for a front viewing element, and a pair of arms extending proximally from the central portion. Each arm includes at least one foldable protrusion adapted to carry an illuminator for a side viewing element.
摘要:
Multiple-sensor motion synchronization in a multi-viewing element endoscope system is achieved by rotating CMOS image sensors, relative to each other, and programming each CMOS image sensor to scan in specific directions. Frames collected from scans at different times are stored, processed, and displayed to form a complete image.
