  • Publication number: 20240090752
    Abstract: An endoscope (100) includes an insertion tube device (2) and a control device (8). The insertion tube device (2) includes an elastic support unit (3), a lens unit (4), and a tubular sleeve unit (7). The elastic support unit (3) includes a distal disk (31), a proximal disk (33), an intermediate disk (32), first and second springs (34, 35) respectively connected between the disks (31, 32, 33). The lens unit (4) includes a lens seat (41) and a lens module (42). The tubular sleeve unit (7) is sleeved on the lens seat (41) and the elastic support unit (3). The control device (8) includes a grip (81), and an angulation control module (85) connected to the insertion tube device (2). The angulation control module (85) is operable to move the distal disk (31) and to deflect the first spring (34), thereby controlling angle of the distal disk (31).

  • Publication number: 20170189273
    Abstract: The invention relates to a truncated feeding tube comprising a first tube, a second tube, and a joint element. One terminal of the first tube and the second tube is removably connected to the two terminals of the joint element. A patient can connect the first and second tubes by the joint element or remove the second tube. Since the joint element can be separated from the first and second tubes, the joint member can be simply replaced when it is damaged without replacing the first or second tube. A positioning member is disposed on a front portion of the second tube, so that an endoscopic technology can be used to clamp the positioning member and the inner wall of the stomach or the duodenum by a hemostatic clip, and the front portion of the second tube is positioned in the stomach or the duodenum to avoid sliding displacement.
