CAPSULE TYPE ENDOSCOPE DEVICE

摘要

Disclosed is a capsule-type endoscope device capable of photographing internal organs and transmitting images of the photographed organs via wireless communication. The capsule-type endoscope device comprises a main body including a magnet and a photographing unit for taking images of an organ and transmitting the images through a wireless communication unit, and advancing within the organ while being rotated by a magnetic field applied from the outside; a plurality of slip wires fixed to an outside of the main body by one end and to an auxiliary ring by the other end, and arranged at predetermined intervals on the outside of the main body; and the auxiliary ring slidably engaged with a slide groove formed at one side of the main body to guide the slip wires to be spirally twisted by frictional force generated between the main body and the organ upon rotation of the main body.
