- the medical manipulator 1 is introduced into the patient's body through a small incision formed in the patient's body wall 101 (see FIG. 1).
- the introduction path of the medical manipulator 1 into the patient's body may be a path through a small incision portion of the body wall 101 or a path through a natural opening such as a mouth.
- the operator moves the long part 30 of the medical manipulator 1 so that the observation target object 102 enters the imaging field of the imaging unit 32.
- the long part 30 of the medical manipulator 1 is moved forward and backward in the longitudinal axis direction, and the pivoting operation is performed to swing the long part 30 with a small incision formed in the body wall 101 as a fulcrum. Etc.
- the operator may bend the active bending portion 31 by operating the input member 5 of the bending operation input portion 4.
- the active bending portion 31 can be bent and deformed using the input member 5, so that the direction of the imaging field of the imaging portion 32 can be oriented in a direction inclined with respect to the longitudinal axis of the long portion 30.
- the medical manipulator 1 operates the active bending portion 31 with a force obtained by adding the output of the driving portion 8 to the amount of force applied by the operator to the input member 5. That is, in the medical manipulator 1 according to the present embodiment, the drive unit 8 causes the active bending portion 31 to move following the operation of the input member 5 in response to the operation of the operator on the input member 5. As a result, the operator who operates the input member 5 can operate the active bending portion 31 with an amount of force smaller than the amount of force originally required for operating the active bending portion 31. That is, in the present embodiment, the drive unit 8 during normal operation assists the operator's operation on the input member 5.
- the possibility that some of the constituent elements may not operate normally or break down during use is considered.
- a design is preferred. For example, it is preferable that even if a part of the medical device breaks down, the failed medical device can be safely removed from the body, or can be easily changed to an alternative means capable of continuing the treatment on the treatment target site.
- the active bending unit 31 is set substantially the same as when the driving unit 8 is not used. It can be operated.
- Whether or not the drive unit 8 is operating normally is determined, for example, by the fact that the operator using the medical manipulator 1 does not operate the active bending unit 31 as intended for the operation on the input member 5. The determination is made based on the fact that the force necessary to operate the input member 5 has become extremely large.
- the active bending portion 31 When the active bending portion 31 is operated so that the drive unit 8 is different from the intention of the operator, the operation on the input member 5 does not correspond to the operation of the active bending portion 31 intended by the operator as a result. Therefore, it is difficult to continue the treatment as it is.
- the drive unit 8 when the operator operates the disconnect switch 26 of the clutch mechanism 25, the power transmission from the drive unit 8 to the first power transmission unit 11 is interrupted. Therefore, the drive unit 8 is operated by the drive signal transmitted from the input member 5 to the drive unit 8 via the encoder 6 and the control unit 35. The operation of the drive unit 8 at this time is the power for bending the active bending unit 31. Must not.
- the drive unit 8 when the drive unit 8 stops operating due to a failure, or when the encoder 6 stops detecting the input member 5 due to a failure, the drive unit 8 does not move even if the operator operates the input member 5. It may not react. In these cases, when the first gear 12 and the second gear 13 are engaged with each other, the force is transmitted from the input member 5 to the active bending portion 31 through the second power transmission portion 20, but the second gear 13 and the first gear 13 are in the first state. It is also necessary to move the drive unit 8 with the amount of force transmitted through the gear 12. That is, the drive unit 8 that does not respond to the operation on the input member 5 becomes a resistance to the operation of operating the active bending unit 31.
- the drive unit 8 when the reduction ratio from the drive unit 8 to the second gear 13 is high, the drive unit 8 does not move and the active bending unit 31 can be operated in a state where the first gear 12 and the second gear 13 are engaged. It may not be possible. Even in such a case, the meshing between the first gear 12 and the second gear 13 is canceled when the operator operates the disconnect switch 26 of the clutch mechanism 25. As a result, the power transmission from the drive unit 8 to the first power transmission unit 11 is interrupted, the resistance is eliminated, and the active bending unit 31 can be operated.
- the clutch mechanism 25 disables auxiliary power transmission from the drive unit 8 even in a state where the operation of the drive unit 8 appropriately corresponding to the operation on the input member 5 is not performed. Furthermore, the second power transmission unit 20 mechanically transmits the operation on the input member 5 to the active bending portion 31. As a result, even if some or all of the components for operating the drive unit 8 are operated based on an operation on the input member 5, the drive unit 8 is separated from the power transmission mechanism 10 by the clutch mechanism 25. The procedure can be continued while maintaining the same operation system as in normal operation.
- the medical manipulator 1 according to the present embodiment can be operated in the same operation system as before the failure even when a failure occurs.
- the fifth gear 22 is always in mesh with the second gear 13, and the drive unit 8 generates power to assist the operation of the input member 5 within the movable range of the input member 5. Therefore, the amount of movement of the active bending portion 31 in response to an operation input to the input member 5 can be changed from the input member 5 through the second power transmission portion 20 regardless of whether the drive portion 8 is connected to the power transmission mechanism 10. It is defined by the reduction ratio when mechanically transmitting the force to the active bending portion 31. As a result, the operation of the active bending portion 31 obtained as a result of the operation on the input member 5 is the same whether or not the drive portion 8 is connected to the power transmission mechanism 10.
