DEVICE FOR ENDOSCOPIC PROBING Russian patent published in 2015 - IPC A61B1/00 F03G3/00 F03G7/08 

FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to medical equipment, namely to devices for endoscopic probing of the gastrointestinal tract. An oscillating mechanism of travel for the movement of a device for endoscopic probing, which contains a capsule-shaped case, in which installed are: a power source, a light source, a video camera, a module of information registration and transmission, a unit for the storage of values of measured parameters of the environment condition, sensors of the gastrointestinal tract state control, connected with a controller, connected with an electric drive of the oscillating mechanism and a signal receiver, is made inertial and contains two equal in weight eccentrics, made with a possibility of synchronous rotation in opposite directions, weight centres of which lie in one plane and are located symmetrically with respect to the longitudinal axis of the device. Constructive elements in the form of an obliquecog comb, oriented with a possibility of creating a resistance force greater when the device moves backward along the gastrointestinal tract than when it moves forward, are made on the generatrix on the external surface of a part of the cylindrical case.

EFFECT: application of the invention makes it possible to extend the assortment of devices for endoscopic probing of the gastrointestinal tract.
