Problems solved by technology

In addition, if ultrasonic vibration is performed in a state where metals are in contact with each other, there is a risk of damage to the probe, jaw, etc.
[0006] In addition, in general, the jaw is supported in a state allowing a predetermined swing with respect to the tip end of the clamp arm, but in this stru

Example Embodiment

[0033] Such as figure 1 As shown, the ultrasonic surgical device 1 as the medical device according to the first embodiment of the present invention is configured to include an ultrasonic transducer 5, an output control device 6, and a treatment tool 7, and the output control device 6 is connected to the ultrasonic transducer 5. The treatment tool 7 functions as an ultrasonic treatment tool by connecting the tip portion of the ultrasonic transducer 5.

[0034] The ultrasonic transducer 5 has an ultrasonic vibrator 11 built in a vibrator cover 10 having a substantially cylindrical shape. In the present embodiment, the ultrasonic vibrator 11 is configured by, for example, arranging a plurality of annular piezoelectric elements 11 a along the long axis direction of the vibrator cover 10. In addition, the proximal end of the horn 12 for amplifying the amplitude of the ultrasonic vibration is connected to the distal end of the ultrasonic vibrator 11. The tip portion 12a of the horn 12...

Abstract

A forceps type (scissors type) treatment instrument (7) is provided with: an ultrasonic probe (52) protruding from a treatment instrument body (20) at a position separated to the front end side from a shaft section (22) for supporting a clamp arm (21) so that the clamp arm (21) can pivot relative to the treatment instrument body (20); a jaw (61) provided to the clamp arm (21) at a position separated to the front end side from the shaft section (22) and capable of being, in association with the pivoting operation of the clamp arm (21), displaced between a closed position at which the jaw (61) is in contact with the ultrasonic probe (52) and an open position at which the jaw (61) is separated from the ultrasonic probe (52). A stopper (70) is extended toward the clamp arm (21) side from the treatment instrument body (20) side while the front end-side edge of the stopper (70) is set closer to the front end side than the path of the base end of the jaw (61), the path being formed when a base (60) is displaced. When the jaw (61) is in an open state, the stopper (70) prevents the entry of an organism into the gap (within a region (64), the treatment of which is impossible) between the treatment instrument body (20) and the clamp arm (21) at a position between the base end of the jaw (61) and the shaft section (22).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an ultrasonic treatment instrument for cutting, excision or coagulation of biological tissues by using ultrasonic waves. Background technique [0002] Conventionally, ultrasonic treatment instruments are known as treatment instruments for surgical treatment. Ultrasonic treatment instruments can perform treatments such as incision, resection, or coagulation of living tissue by, for example, transmitting ultrasonic vibration to living tissue or fusing ultrasonic vibration with high-frequency current and transmitting it to living tissue. [0003] Among ultrasonic treatment instruments, especially suitable for fine and delicate surgical treatment such as thyroidectomy, for example, a pliers type (scissors type) is disclosed in Japanese National Publication No. 2009-514566 ultrasonic treatment equipment. This pliers-type ultrasonic treatment instrument has a treatment instrument main body (handle structure body) and a clamping arm...
