Abstract:
A grasping treatment instrument includes a first grasping piece, and a second grasping piece opening or closing relative to the first grasping piece by rotating relative to a base member. The second grasping piece includes a supported portion supported by a distal portion of the base member and forming a rotational axis of the second grasping piece relative to the base member, and a ring portion in which the supported portion is formed and which is formed in a ring shape continuous over an entire circumference around a longitudinal axis of the base member. A driving force, rotating the second grasping piece relative to the base member, is transmitted from the movable member to the ring portion.
Abstract:
A treatment instrument includes a first clamping surface, a second clamping surface configured to cooperate with the first clamping surface and to clamp a living body tissue, a pressure application member provided on one of the first and second clamping surfaces, and configured to apply a pressure to the living body tissue in a line shape by causing the first and second clamping surfaces to relatively approach each other, and a moving mechanism provided on the first clamping surface, and configured to move the first clamping surface in a manner to apply tensile forces to the living body tissue, clamped between the first and second clamping surfaces, in directions deviating away from a direction along a line formed on the living body tissue by the pressure application member.
Abstract:
A treatment device configured to hold a living tissue includes a swing member supported by a first grasping member and rotatable in a first direction and in an opposite direction opposite to the first direction. A support shaft of the swing member is supported on a side close to the distal end including a middle position between the distal end and the proximal end. A first holding surface is provided on the swing member close to a side of the second grasping member and grasps the living tissue. A second holding surface is provided on the second grasping member close to a side of the swing member and which faces the first holding surface and which is configured to hold the living tissue together with the first holding surface of the swing member.
Abstract:
A treatment instrument configured to treat living tissue by applying energy includes: first and second holding members; a swing member supported by the first holding member and being rotatable in a first direction and in a second direction opposite to the first direction on a rotation axis as a supporting point; a limiting portion which limits rotation of the swing member in one of the first and second directions; a first holding surface provided on the side of the swing member close to the second holding member and configured to hold living tissue; a second holding surface provided on the side of the second holding member close to the swing member and cooperating with the first holding surface of the swing member to hold the living tissue; and a protrusion forming a clearance between the first and second holding surfaces when the first and second holding surfaces are relatively closed.
Abstract:
An electrically conductive plate of a treatment instrument includes a treating surface and a back surface facing an opposite side of the treating surface, and an electric component is arranged on the back surface of the electrically conductive plate. The electric component is electrically independent from the electrically conductive plate, and a holder supports the electrically conductive plate from the back surface side. A connector is made of a thermoplastic resin, and arranged on either side of and spaced from the electric component in a width direction intersecting with a longitudinal axis. The connector stationarily fixes each end of the electrically conductive plate in the width direction to the holder.

Abstract:
A treatment instrument includes: a first holding surface including a first high frequency electrode portion; a second holding surface configured to hold living tissue cooperatively with the first holding surface and including a second high frequency electrode portion; a blade configured to apply pressure to the living tissue held between the first and second holding surfaces by a projected surface; and a heater which is capable of heating the first holding surface to a second temperature higher than the first temperature and sufficient to incise the living tissue held between the first and second holding surfaces by the blade, upon receipt of energy supplied at the same time as or after energy supply to the first and second high frequency electrode portions.
Abstract:
In a grasping treatment unit in which a first jaw is openable and closable relative to a second jaw, a frame member is provided in the first jaw. The frame member includes a plate-shaped base portion forming a grasping surface side end face in the frame member, and a column extension extending from the base portion toward a back surface in the frame member and having one end continuous with the base portion. The column extension defines a space in which the frame member is a defining surface between the base portion and the back surface of the first jaw.
Abstract:
A grasping treatment unit includes a first jaw, and a second jaw openable and closable relative to the first jaw. In the first jaw, a heating wire continues without branching from a first extending end to a second extending end, and generates heat over an entire length from the first extending end to the second extending end when an electric current flows therethrough. A heating portion is lower in calorific value per unit area in a distal portion than in a proximal portion in the first jaw in a state where the heat is generated from the heating wire.
Abstract:
A grasping surface opposed to a second jaw is provided on an outer surface in a first jaw of the grasping treatment unit, and a heat applying portion applying heat to a treated target is provided in a grasping-surface-side part in the first jaw. The heat applying portion includes a projection portion in which the grasping surface projects toward the second jaw, and the projection portion includes a first thermal conduction portion, and a second thermal conduction portion with a thermal conductivity which is different from that of the first thermal conduction portion. The second thermal conduction portion is continuous with the first thermal conduction portion in a longitudinal direction of the first jaw.
