相应地,本发明实施例提供一种阴茎起搏器的控制方法,所述阴茎起搏器包括阴茎植入机构、储液室、导管、泵和加热装置;将所述阴茎植入机构用于阴茎皮下与海绵体之间,其中,所述阴茎植入机构具有中空的腔体,并且可轴向伸缩的固定于阴茎的近端;

其中,所述泵为所述流体在储液室和阴茎植入机构之间传输提供动力以使阴茎勃起或阴茎疲软,包括:
所述泵驱动所述流体由储液室经导管传输至所述阴茎植入机构的腔体,阴茎植入机构轴向伸长以使阴茎勃起;
所述泵驱动所述流体由所述阴茎植入机构的腔体经导管传输至储液室,阴茎植入机构轴向收缩以使阴茎疲软。
由以上技术方案可见,本发明实施例的优点如下:
传统的阴茎植入机构由两个水囊组成,水囊直接植入两个海绵体中,手术过程中需要将海绵体组织分别完全游离开,方可完成植入,海绵体组织自身的解剖结构因此被破坏,病人甚至会永久性失去恢复的可能性。而本发明实施例中阴茎植入机构植入阴茎皮下与海绵体之间,并且厚度远小于传统水囊的直径或厚度,对海绵体组织的解剖结构几乎没有伤害。
传统的阴茎植入机构水囊的末端通过两个锥形的结构插入体内,而本发明的阴茎植入机构是植入阴茎皮下与海绵体之间,不适合再以锥形的结构插入体内,而通过固 定板等固定装置固定于耻骨上,固定的更加牢固,阴茎植入机构不易发生移位。
进一步地,在本发明实施例中将阴茎植入机构外表面设计成可沿阴茎轴向伸缩的节段型结构,例如多个波纹管结构、不同硬度的节段型中空结构相互嵌套组成、长度可变结构与长度不可变结构相互串联等方式,从而阴茎在勃起时阴茎植入机构可伸长,带动阴茎伸长,阴茎疲软时,阴茎植入机构收缩成和阴茎一致的长度。
另外,在节段型结构的近端设置中空的基座,基座的腔体与节段型结构的腔体连通,基座可牢固地将节段型结构固定于阴茎皮下与海绵体之间,不会出现移位的现象,另一方面,当节段型结构为多个时,泵启动后,流体先输出至基座,再经由基座均匀地分布于节段型结构中。基座同时起到固定阴茎植入机构和均匀分布流体的作用。
在本发明一实施例中,阴茎起搏器中增加了加热装置,对由储液室输出至阴茎植入机构的流体加热,消除了储液室中的流体与阴茎部位温度的差异,使得患者更加舒适。
再进一步地,阴茎起搏器中还增加了温度传感器,加热装置由电源供电,由控制装置控制加热装置和温度传感器,温度传感器中设置阈值,流体达到阈值时,将信号传输至控制装置,控制装置随即控制泵将流体由储液室输送至阴茎植入机构,从而有效地控制流体加热温度。
在本发明又一实施例中,通过遥控方式控制加热装置和温度传感器,使得患者的操作更加的便捷。进一步地,通过在加热装置与所述泵之间设置延时电路,例如将电容与泵并联等方式使得加热装置启动的时间早于泵启动的时间,避免了储液室中的流体没来得及加热便流入阴茎植入机构,同时也可以简化遥控器的结构,比如可以将控制加热装置和泵的按钮合二为一。

图5为基于图2E的本发明阴茎起搏器的优选实施例示意图。图5为遥控加热型电动阴茎起搏器,包括阴茎植入机构1、储液室35、导管2、泵302、电源32、控制装置702、加热装置、温度传感器、体外无线遥控装置44和体内感应装置304,阴茎植入机构1阴茎的近端设有基座11、靠近阴茎的远端的部分设有端盖13。
如图14A-14B所示,阴茎皮下植入机构1植入在阴茎皮下与海绵体之间,通过导管2与泵302连接。泵302置于阴囊中,泵302的开启与关闭可实现向阴茎皮下植入机构的注水和排水,从而实现阴茎的勃起和疲软两种生理状态。
其中基座主体111为空腔型结构用于连通导管2和阴茎植入机构1,基座11上还设有用于固定基座的耻骨固定板112,用于将基座整体固定在耻骨上,以便当阴茎植 入机构1作伸长运动时提供支点作用力,从而保证阴茎植入机构1的长度变化均是沿基座11向端盖13方向作伸长运动。
导管2为中空液体导管,其管壁内衬用于增加强度的网状编织结构,该导管2一端连接泵302,一端连接基座11,用于连通二者之间的水路;所述的导管2上设有可控制液路开闭的电磁阀22。
所述储液室35、泵302、电源32、控制装置702、加热装置、温度传感器组成一体式结构,一体式结构由壳体31包围,所述的加热装置36设置在储液室35内表面,用于给储液室35内的液体加热,该加热装置内置温度传感器,可以精确控制储液室35内液体的温度。所述的壳体31由具有生物相容性材料制成,如不锈钢、钛合金、钴铬合金等材料制成,并且所述壳体表面可喷涂或镀覆聚对二甲苯、特氟龙、多糖类聚合物、改性硅酮等材料,用于提高壳体表面性能,增强生物相容性与稳定性;所述电源32为蓄电池32,所述蓄电池32可为泵302的泵体33供电,从而实现将储液室35内的液体加压输出至阴茎植入机构1中,从而使其发生伸长运动;所述蓄电池可为设置在导管2上的电磁阀22供电,从而实现导管2内液路的开关控制;所述的蓄电池可为加热装置36供电,用于改变储液室35内液体的温度,从而提高假体使用的舒适性。
体外无线遥控装置44包括一信号生成器和感应线圈,相应地,体内感应装置304还包括感应线圈701,感应线圈701与体外无线遥控装置44的感应线圈进行无线耦合,将外部能源转化为电流信号并传输至控制装置702;所述控制装置702用于接收和存储外部电流信号,并根据所述电流信号控制电源32;所述电源32与所述泵302电连接,用于将电能传输至所述泵302。
感应线圈可以埋植于人体内任何合适的位置,优选地,感应线圈可以埋植于人体内下腹壁皮下。体外无线遥控装置44对感应线圈发出无线信号,例如电磁波信号或其他类型的无线信号,感应线圈将所述无线信号转换为电流,所述电流传输至电源32和控制装置702。控制装置702同时接收与存储外部信号和程序,并根据所述外部信号控制泵302、电磁阀22以及加热装置36的运行。
图6为基于图5的本发明阴茎起搏器的控制电路的实施例示意图。
所述加热装置与泵之间设有至少一个电容,加热装置与泵串联,所述至少一个电容与泵并联。泵串联了行程开关,用于限制泵的行程。
蓄电池32通过感应线圈41与体外无线遥控装置44进行无线耦合完成充电,并为泵302、加热装置36和电磁阀22提供电能。勃起过程中,控制装置702控制开关S1关闭,加热装置36对储液室35中的液体加热,电容开始充电,泵302被短路,不工作,当电容充电完成后,泵302开启,泵302将储液室35中已经加热的液体通过 导管2注入到阴茎植入机构1,电磁阀在液体冲击作用下自动开启。疲软过程中控制装置702控制开关S1断开,S2闭合,电磁阀22通电,此时液体在泵头34与泵体33之间弹簧37的作用下回流到储液室35,完成阴茎植入机构1的排水。
相应地,本发明还提供了一种利用本发明的阴茎起搏器模拟阴茎勃起和疲软的方法,包括:
所述泵302驱动所述流体由储液室35经导管2传输至所述阴茎植入机构1的腔体,阴茎植入机构1轴向伸长,阴茎勃起;
所述泵302驱动所述流体由所述阴茎植入机构1的腔体经导管2传输至储液室35,阴茎植入机构1轴向收缩,阴茎疲软。
相应地,本发明还提供了一种利用本发明的阴茎起搏器模拟阴茎勃起和疲软的方法,包括:
所述泵302驱动所述流体由储液室35经导管传输至所述阴茎植入机构1的腔体,阴茎植入机构1轴向伸长,阴茎勃起,其中,所述加热装置36对由储液室35输出至所述阴茎植入机构1的流体进行加热;
所述泵302驱动所述流体由所述阴茎植入机构1的腔体经导管传输至储液室35,阴茎植入机构1轴向收缩,阴茎疲软。
上述方法可通过执行本发明实施例所提供的装置实现,具备执行装置相应的功能模块和有益效果。未在本实施例中详尽描述的技术细节,可参见本发明实施例所提供的装置。
综上所述,传统的阴茎植入机构由两个水囊组成,水囊直接植入两个海绵体中,手术过程中需要将海绵体组织分别完全游离开,方可完成植入,海绵体组织自身的解剖结构因此被破坏,病人甚至会永久性失去恢复的可能性。而本发明实施例中阴茎植入机构用于阴茎皮下与海绵体之间,并且厚度远小于传统水囊的直径或厚度,对海绵体组织的解剖结构几乎没有伤害。
传统的阴茎植入机构水囊的末端通过两个锥形的结构插入体内,而本发明的阴茎植入机构是植入阴茎皮下与海绵体之间,不适合再以锥形的结构插入体内,而通过固定板等固定装置固定于耻骨上,固定的更加牢固,阴茎植入机构不易发生移位。
进一步地,在本发明实施例中将阴茎植入机构外表面设计成可沿阴茎轴向伸缩的节段型结构,例如多个波纹管结构、不同硬度的节段型中空结构相互嵌套组成、长度可变结构与长度不可变结构相互串联等方式,从而阴茎在勃起时阴茎植入机构可伸长,带动阴茎伸长,阴茎疲软时,阴茎植入机构收缩成和阴茎一致的长度。
另外,在节段型结构的近端设置中空的基座,基座的腔体与节段型结构的腔体连通,基座可牢固地将节段型结构固定于阴茎皮下与海绵体之间,不会出现移位的现象, 另一方面,当节段型结构为多个时,泵启动后,流体先输出至基座,再经由基座均匀地分布于节段型结构中。基座同时起到固定阴茎植入机构和均匀分布流体的作用。
在本发明一实施例中,阴茎起搏器中增加了加热装置,对由储液室输出至阴茎植入机构的流体加热,消除了储液室中的流体与阴茎部位温度的差异,使得患者更加舒适。
再进一步地,阴茎起搏器中还增加了温度传感器,加热装置由电源供电,由控制装置控制加热装置和温度传感器,温度传感器中设置阈值,流体达到阈值时,将信号传输至控制装置,控制装置随即控制泵将流体由储液室输送至阴茎植入机构,从而有效地控制流体加热温度。
在本发明又一实施例中,通过遥控方式控制加热装置和温度传感器,使得患者的操作更加的便捷。进一步地,通过将加热装置与泵串联,并且在加热装置与所述泵之间设置电容等方式使得加热装置启动的时间早于泵启动的时间,避免了储液室中的流体没来得及加热便流入阴茎植入机构,同时也可以简化遥控器的结构,比如可以将控制加热装置和泵的按钮合二为一。
以上所述实施例仅表达了本发明的几种实施方式,其描述较为具体和详细,但并不能因此而理解为对发明专利范围的限制。应当指出的是,对于本领域的普通技术人员来说,在不脱离本发明构思的前提下,还可以做出若干变形和改进,这些都属于本发明的保护范围。因此,本发明专利的保护范围应以所附权利要求为准。
