Endoskopiezange
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Endoskopiezange, die mittels
eines Endoskops in eine Körperhohle eingeführt wird, um
dort Geuebteilchen zu entnehmen oder auch um Fremdkörper
zu erfassen und zu entfernen.
Die bekannten gattungsgemäQen Zangen dieser Art sind
hierzu mit einem zangenartigen Maul ausgerüstet. Das beuegliche Maulteil ist mit einer Zug-bzu. Druckstange
getrieblich verbunden, die längsverschieblich in dem Spiral-oder Schaftteil des Instruments geführt ist
und am Schaftende von Hand betätigt werden kann. Durch Schließen des zunächst geöffneten Naules können
nun die entfernenden Geuebeteilchen oder auch Fremdkörper im Inneren einer Körperhöhle oder eines Organs ergriffen
und durch Zurückziehen der geschlossenen Zange herausgeuonnen werden.
Das wesentliche Funktionsmerkmal eines modernen Endoskops ist in seiner Flexibilität zu sehen, also in der
leichten Biegbarkeit, um den anatomischen Verläufen der zu beobachtenden Körperhöhlen oder Organen leicht folger,
zu könnet., ohne dort Verletzungen hervorzurufen bzw. dem Patienten Schmerzen zu verursachen. Die Weiterentwicklung
der Endoskope hat zu einer wesentlichen Verbesserung dieser Flexibilität geführt, wahrend die
möglichen und 2ulässigen Krümmungen frühsr bei ca. 90 bis 110° begrenzt waren, sind bei neueren Konstruktionen
Krümmungen mit sehr engen Krümmungsradien bis 180° möglich.

IJe^Ti es sich darum handelt^ mit EndöSkopiezangen zu
arbeiten* kann bisher diese verbesserte Flexibilität
das Endoskops nicht ausgenutzt Werden* Dies liegt an
ElSf Baulänge der bekannten Endösköpiezangen, die ein
feststehendes Und ein bewegliches Mäulteil aufweisen.
Es wird für die getriebliche Mechanik zur Bewegung des beweglichen Maulteils elfte nicht zu unterschreitende
Baulänge benötigt, 30 daß einer Verkürzung der
Gesamt«0aulänge bei den bekannten Systemen enge Grenzen
yeästzt sind«
Hier setzt die Erfindung ein, die sich zum Ziel ge?-
setzt hat, eine neuartige Endoskopiezange zu schaffen,
deren Bewegungsmechanik eine kürzere Baulänge und soueit erforderlich und gewünscht, auch einen erheblich
kleineren Durchmesser-Querschnitt erfordert.
Zur Lösung dieser Aufgabe führt erfindungsgamäß der
Vorschlag, daß bei der gattungsgemäßen Endoskopiezange mit einem Betätigungskäbel in der Spirale die
beiden Maulteile in Biner mittig angeordneten Achse scherenartig gelagert und mit jeweils einem zum Aussenumfang
gerichteten Betätigungshebel versehen sind, deren Enden in Ausnehmungen einer mit der Spirale
verbundenen Hülse gehalten sind* Dabei ist ferner vorgesehen, daß die mittige Achse mittels des Betätigungskabels
axialverschieblich ist. Nach einem besonders uorteilhaftsn Merkmal ist das Betätigungskabel mit einem axialverschieblichen Mittelbolzen
in Verbindung, in welchem diB mittige Achse gelagert ist.
Weitere vorteilhafte Merkmale sind den Ansprüchen zu entnehmen und ferner anhand der in der Zeichnung
schematisch dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiele beschrieben und näher erläutert.

Es zeigen
Fig* 1 eine Seitenansicht einer Endösköpiezähge
nach der Erfindung j
Fig. 2 eine Seitenansicht einer Endöskopiezahge
nach der Erfindung in abgewandelter Ausführung*
In den Figuren sind die Maulteile mit 1 und 2 bezeichnet;
die in der Achse 3 scherenartige gelagert sind. Dedes
riäuiteil ist mit sinem Betätigungshebel 4 und 5 versehen,
deren Enden 6 und 7 in Ausnehmungen 8 und 9 gehalten
sind. Diese Ausnehmungen befinden sich in einer Hülse 11
und 12, welche mit der Spirale 10 Verbunden sind. Bei
der Ausbildungsueise nach Fig. 1 weisen die Betätigungshebel
6 und 7 in der Verlängerung der Maulteile 1 und 2 nach außen und stecken in den genannten Ausnehmungen 8
und 9. Demgegenüber sind die Betätigungshebel -6 und 7
in der Ausbildung gemäß Fig. 2 im Bereich der Lagerstalie 3 abgewinkelt und zeigen entgegen der VerlängBrungsrichtung
der Maulteile 1 und 2 nach außen* Dieser Unterschied
wirkt sich in einer BewegungsumkBhr aus. Im Fall
der Fig. 1 schließen sich die Maulteile 1 und 2 bei Verschiebung des Betätigungskabels in Pfeilrichtung (Druck
nach vorne), wahrend im Fall der Fig. 2 sich die Maulteile bei Verschiebung in umgekehrter Richtung (Zug)
schließen*
Wie die Zeichnung ferner zeigt, ist die Hülse mit den Ausnehmungen 8 und 9 aus dem Hülsenteil 11 und dem Hüleenring
12 gebildet. Das Betätigungskabel 16 ist mit dem Mittelbolzen 17 verbunden, in welchem die mittige
Achse 3 gelagert ist. Das Maulteil 1 in Fig. 2 ist mit einer löffelartigen Vertiefung ausgeführt* deren Randkanten
(15) schneidenartig geschärft sind.
Die Ausbildungsueise nach der Erfindung ermöglicht eine gedrungene und um wenigstens 3 mm kürzere Bauweise.
