[0028] Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the present invention to be protected, but merely represents selected embodiments of the present invention. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0029] It should be noted that similar reference numerals and letters denote similar items in the following drawings, and therefore, once an item is defined in one drawing, further definition and explanation thereof is not required in subsequent drawings.
[0030] Furthermore, the terms “first”, “second”, etc. are merely used for distinguishing descriptions and should not be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.
[0031] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the embodiment of the utility model provides a plasma scalpel 10, which can be used in conjunction with a radio frequency host, a foot switch and an aspirator, etc., and is mainly used for UBE procedures, and is used for ablation and cutting of human spinal tissue, coagulation and hemostasis, etc. The UBE procedure is a new type of minimally invasive procedure, which refers to a spinal surgery under a unilateral double-channel endoscope, and can be applied to various types of lumbar disc herniation, spinal stenosis and mild lumbar spondylolisthesis, etc.
[0032] The radio frequency host refers to a radio frequency plasma surgical device. The radio frequency host is electrically connected to the plasma electrode and controlled by a foot switch. The suction device is connected to the plasma electrode and is used for negative pressure suction.
[0033] The structures of the radio frequency host, the foot switch and the suction device, and the corresponding connection relationship can refer to the prior art, and will not be described in detail here. The foot switch and the plasma electrode can be controlled separately without interfering with each other.
[0034] The plasma surgical knife 10 can be manufactured and sold independently of a radio frequency host, a foot switch, an aspirator, and the like.
[0035] First of all, it should be noted that the "front" and "back" mentioned in this embodiment are defined based on the positional relationship with the lesion site, that is, close to the lesion site is "front" and far from the lesion site is "back".
[0036] Specifically, the plasma surgical knife 10 includes a handle assembly and a blade head 120 , and a rear end of the blade head 120 is connected to the handle assembly.
[0037] The structure of the handle assembly can be adopted but not limited to the following solutions: Figure 1 As shown, the handle assembly includes a handle 110, a nerve detector 111 (please refer to Figure 3 , Figure 4as shown) and suction tube 113.
[0038] The handle 110 is mainly used for holding. The shape and structure of the handle 110 are not limited and can refer to the prior art.
[0039] The nerve detector 111 extends from the front end of the cutter head 120 , and the nerve detector 111 is adjacent to the working surface of the cutter head 120 , the front end of the nerve detector 111 is in contact with the outer surface of the cutter head 120 , and the outer side of the nerve detector 111 can be covered with insulating material.
[0040] A warning light 112 is provided on the handle 110. The size and position of the warning light 112 are not limited. In the present embodiment, the diameter of the warning light 112 is 2 mm-6 mm, preferably 3 mm. The warning light 112 is close to the front end of the handle 110. The distance between the warning light 112 and the front end of the handle 110 is 1 cm-5 cm, preferably 2 cm. The warning light 112 can be located on the back of the handle 110, and the warning light 112 protrudes 1-5 mm from the surface of the handle 110, preferably 2 mm. The warning light 112 displays the detection result of the nerve detector 111 by changing the color and the frequency of on and off. For example, when the front end of the electrode assembly is close to the nerve, the nerve detector 111 can detect the nerve, the host will make a sound, and the warning light 112 will alarm to prompt the doctor to pay attention. When the distance to the nerve is 3cm-2cm, the host can beep once, and the warning light 112 is green and always on; when the distance to the nerve is 2cm-1cm, the host can beep twice, and the warning light 112 is yellow and always on; when the distance to the nerve is 1cm-5mm, the host can beep three times, and the warning light 112 is yellow and flashing; when the distance to the nerve is ≤5mm, the host keeps beeping, and the warning light 112 is red and flashing. Such a setting will give the doctor a prompt, and the doctor can easily judge the distance between the front end of the electrode assembly and the nerve, so as to adjust the position according to the actual situation to prevent electrical stimulation; the nerve detector 111 and the warning light 112 can prompt while the plasma electrode is working, which can not only facilitate the doctor to perform surgery, but also not delay the search for the nerve location, which can greatly improve the efficiency of the operation, reduce the operation time, and reduce the pain of the patient. The warning light 112 and the host alarm at the same time, which can prevent the doctor from missing the sound alarm, and the prompt can be seen intuitively. Of course, in some embodiments, it is also possible for the host not to alarm.
[0041] Please combine Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, the cutter head 120 includes a tubular electrode 121 , an insulating seat 122 , a sheet electrode 123 and a wire electrode 124 .
[0042] The tubular electrode 121 is tubular, and may be a round tube, a square tube, an elliptical tube, etc., and is hollow inside, and may or may not have openings at both ends. The material of the tubular electrode 121 may be a metal material that is conductive.

The neural detector 111 can be disposed between the insulating layer 132 and the first electrode 130 and exposed from the front end of the insulating layer 132.
[0045] A notch is disposed on one side of the second electrode 131 , and the size of the notch is not limited and can refer to the prior art.
[0046] The insulating seat 122 is made of insulating material. The insulating seat 122 is connected to the second electrode 131 to form a boss. The connection method between the two is not limited. The insulating seat 122 closes the gap of the second electrode 131 .

[0049] The central part of the sheet electrode 123 is provided with a suction through hole 134, which is opposite to the suction hole 133, and the diameter of the suction through hole 134 is smaller than the size of the insulating seat 122, and the diameter of the suction through hole 134 is smaller than the diameter of the suction hole 133. This arrangement increases the area of the hollow hole of the sheet electrode 123, allowing more and larger tissues to pass through, and does not cause the situation of dispersed attraction, so that the attraction can be fully effective; since the size of the suction through hole 134 is smaller than the size of the suction hole 133, the attraction will be increased, and the tissue that can pass through the suction through hole 134 will definitely pass through the suction hole 133 smoothly.
[0050] The diameter of the suction through hole 134 is 0.3mm-2.0mm, preferably 1.2mm. The suction through hole 134 has several sharp corners, which can be acute angles, right angles or obtuse angles, etc. Specifically, the sharp corners can adopt but are not limited to the following schemes: a plurality of protrusions 135 are provided in the suction through hole 134, the number of the protrusions 135 is not limited, the protrusions 135 extend toward the inside of the suction through hole 134, and the protrusions 135 form sharp corners. The sharp corners can make the surroundings of the suction through hole 134 discharge strongly, cut the lesion tissue smaller, so that the waste tissue can pass through the suction through hole 134 more easily.
[0051] The shape of the suction through hole 134 is not limited, that is, the shape of the protrusion 135 is not limited. For example, the protrusion 135 can be a triangle, a rectangle, a polygon, etc., so that the suction through hole 134 presents a star shape, a cross shape, a polygon, etc.

Among them, the wire electrode 124 is inserted into the sheet electrode 123 and extends into the first electrode 130 through the insulating seat 122. In this embodiment, the wire electrode 124 can be inserted into the circular auxiliary through hole 136, and the wire electrode 124 can penetrate the insulating seat 122 and extend into the first electrode 130. The wire electrode 124 fixes the sheet electrode 123 on the insulating seat 122. The wire electrode 124 can be connected to a wire, an electrode wire, etc., and the wire, the electrode wire, etc. are inserted into the first electrode 130.
[0054] In addition, the handle assembly may also include a plug 114 for powering on.
