Description

Ultrasonic knife conduction rod and ultrasonic knife
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of ultrasonic scalpels, in particular to an ultrasonic scalpel conduction rod and an ultrasonic scalpel.
Background
An ultrasonic scalpel (i.e., an ultrasonic scalpel) is a novel surgical instrument, which has significant advantages over conventional electric scalpels, such as precise cutting, hemostasis, less thermal damage, short operation time, application to vital organs, less smoke and charring, clear visual field during operation, no current flow through the body, and capability of cutting any substantial tissue other than bone tissue. As ultrasonic blades are used more and more, the performance requirements for ultrasonic blades are also higher and higher.
The resonance characteristics of the ultrasonic blade vibration system specifically include resonance frequency, resonance impedance and resonance amplitude, which directly determine the working state of the ultrasonic blade and affect the electroacoustic conversion efficiency of the ultrasonic blade. In general, the larger the spacing (i.e., the frequency width) between the series resonance point (Fs) and the parallel resonance point (Fp) of the ultrasonic-blade vibration system, the better the resonance characteristics of the ultrasonic vibration system. The resonant amplitude, impedance and the like of the ultrasonic blade are determined by the blade structure, particularly the arrangement and distribution of gain steps, and the frequency characteristics of the ultrasonic blade are influenced.
More specifically, in the prior art, the phase margin of the tool holder operation is substantially within 80Hz, which is not sufficient to maintain a good resonance condition of the tool holder at all times in a complex operating environment. The fundamental reason for this narrow tolerance in view of the existing solutions is the structural design of the conducting part of the ultrasonic blade shaft. FIG. 1 illustrates a prior art ultrasonic blade. As shown in fig. 1, the conductive rod portion of the prior art ultrasonic blade provides a gain step at the proximal first half-wavelength node of the blade shaft, which is further from the blade tip. The gain step is arranged at the half-wavelength node, so that the vibration amplitude of ultrasonic waves input by the cutter bar is increased, the larger the vibration amplitude is, the larger the friction between sound waves and the inside of a solid medium in the propagation process is, the more obvious the energy loss of the sound waves is, the instability of sound wave conduction is caused, and the phase tolerance of resonance is sacrificed. Therefore, how to effectively optimize the structure of the ultrasonic blade conducting rod to improve the phase tolerance of resonance and reduce the energy loss of sound wave has become a key point for those skilled in the art to solve and research.

Detailed Description
The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are some, not all, embodiments of the present invention.
The same or similar numbered elements/components used in the drawings and the embodiments are used to represent the same or similar parts. And the drawings are merely schematic, the elements of which are not necessarily to scale.
Fig. 2 illustrates an exploded structural view of the entirety of an ultrasonic-blade conducting bar according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 2, the conducting rod of the ultrasonic scalpel of the embodiment of the present invention includes a proximal rod 1, a middle rod 2, and a distal rod 3, which are connected in sequence, wherein one end of the proximal rod 1 is connected to an ultrasonic transducer, and the other end is connected to the middle rod 2, one end of the distal rod 3 is connected to the middle rod 2, and the other end is connected to a scalpel head, and sound waves are transmitted from one end of the proximal rod 1 connected to the ultrasonic transducer; the outer surface of the near rod body 1 is circumferentially provided with a convex structure 10, and in the axial direction, the convex structure 10 is positioned in the length range of the first half wavelength transmitted by sound waves; the outer surface of the central shaft 2 and/or the distal shaft 3 is provided with a gain step 20 and/or 30 in the circumferential direction.
For the sake of simplicity, the reference to "proximal" and "distal" in the embodiments of the present invention is relative to the holder of the ultrasonic scalpel, where the proximal shaft 1 is closest to the holder and the distal shaft 3 is farthest from the holder, and the relative positions of the proximal shaft and the distal shaft with respect to the holder and the scalpel head will not be described in detail below.
In an embodiment of the present invention, preferably, for the whole ultrasonic blade transmission rod, the proximal rod body 1 according to this embodiment may be a region of about 1.5 wavelength length of the first ultrasonic wave transmitted, the middle rod body 2 may be a region of about 1 wavelength length from the connection point with the proximal rod body 1, and the rest may be the distal rod body 3. By optimizing the acoustic characteristics of the near rod body, the middle rod body and the far rod body, the better resonance characteristic of the cutter head is realized, and the effects of high output and low energy consumption are achieved.
In an embodiment of the present invention, the proximal rod 1, the middle rod 2, and the distal rod 3 may be integrally formed.
In order to ensure proper ultrasonic frequency, a convex structure 10 may be provided on the outer surface of the proximal rod body 1 along the circumferential direction to match the input ultrasonic frequency, thereby also playing a role in enhancing local strength and support. In the embodiment of the present invention, the protrusion structure may be a regular structure or an irregular structure.
The "arrows" in fig. 4 are used to point from the circle to the enlarged front portion to the enlarged rear portion. As shown in fig. 3 and 4, in the embodiment of the present invention, the protruding structure 10 may be cylindrical or truncated cone, and the diameter of the protruding structure 10 is larger than that of the proximal rod body 1. Thereby enhancing the local strength of the cutter bar and reducing the amplitude of the input ultrasonic wave.
In an embodiment of the invention, the raised structure 10 is in the length range of the first half wavelength of the incoming sound wave in the axial direction.
In an embodiment of the invention, the geometric center of the raised structure (10) may be near the node of the first half wavelength of the incoming sound wave. Whereas the proximal shaft body 1 (excluding the raised structure) may have a uniform cross-sectional radius over the length of the first half wavelength (or "first half wavelength").
In this embodiment, the protrusion structure 10 and the proximal rod body 1 can be integrally formed.
In the embodiment of the present invention, the two ends of the protrusion structure 10 can be connected with the proximal shaft body 1 in a smooth transition manner.
Since the conductive rod is a multi-wavelength structure, the wave will accompany the dissipation of acoustic energy during propagation. In order to reduce the dissipation of the sound energy as much as possible, the amplitude of the ultrasonic wave just transmitted into the conducting rod can be reduced by adjusting the width and the position of the convex structure 10, so that the effect of reducing the dissipation of the sound energy is achieved. The amplitude of the vibration can be amplified or reduced by appropriately adjusting the position of the projection structure 10.
In the embodiment of the present invention, the vibration amplitude is reduced by setting the relationship between the distance d from the tip of the convex structure 10 on the side close to the tool tip to the tip of the first half wavelength and the first half wavelength L. In addition, the convex structure 10 strengthens local strength, and plays a supporting role for the rod body, thereby further increasing the overall strength of the ultrasonic scalpel.
In the embodiment of the present invention, in order to achieve a more preferable resonance state, the ratio of the distance d from the end of the convex structure 10 to the end of the first half wavelength to the first half wavelength L may be more than 0.4 and less than 0.6 (i.e., 0.4-straw d/L < 0.6).
Fig. 5 illustrates a schematic diagram of a relationship between the diameter of the bamboo joint structure and the resonant frequency in the embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 5, in the embodiment of the present invention, the diameter of the convex structure 10 is increased step by step, so that the frequency of the tool bar increases with the increase of the diameter, and the change relationship is almost a straight line. According to the characteristic, the ultrasonic frequency can be adjusted under the condition that the diameter of the bamboo joint structure is properly adjusted, so that the effective length of the cutter bar can be increased.
Generally, a wave will accompany dissipation of acoustic energy during propagation, with longer wavelengths and lower frequencies. In the embodiment of the invention, the ultrasonic frequency is adjusted or increased by introducing the bamboo joint structure, so that the barrier is overcome, and the effective length of the cutter bar is increased.
For a specific material, the structure has constant mechanical physical quantities such as young's modulus E and density ρ, and if the structure is regular, such as a pure bar, the resonant frequency f of the structure can be expressed as:
f = (sqrt (E/ρ))/2 × L, where L is the length of the rod.
Although conventional acoustically conductive rods are irregularly structured in order to meet both acoustic and mechanical requirements. However, for a particular length type of ultrasonic blade, within this framework, it can be seen from the above that the length of the blade can be increased appropriately while maintaining the ultrasonic blade frequency in a better resonance state. This can greatly improve the flexibility of the surgery for the surgery. For example, for a 36cm type knife bar, the resonance length is about 404mm, after the bamboo joint structure of the embodiment of the invention is introduced, the length of the knife bar can be increased by 0.5 to 2mm, which has a wider operation range and better operation effect in the surgical operation.
As shown in fig. 3, in the embodiment of the present invention, a threaded hole 11 is formed at one end of the proximal rod body 1 connected to the ultrasonic transducer, the threaded hole 11 and the proximal rod body 1 have the same axial lead in the axial direction, and by designing the threaded hole 11, the embodiment of the present invention generates a cavity structure at the first quarter wavelength within the first half wavelength range of the incoming sound wave, and according to the sound wave theory, the cavity structure has a gain effect and the gain is smaller than 1 (even if the amplitude of the sound wave is reduced), so that the present invention can moderate and reduce the amplitude of the input sound wave, thereby achieving the purpose of reducing the sound energy loss.
In the embodiment of the invention, the outer surface of the far rod body and/or the middle rod body can be provided with the gain steps along the circumferential direction to amplify the amplitude of the ultrasonic waves, so that the vibration effect is enhanced, and more effective amplitude output is provided for the cutter head.
For a free vibration system, the vibration characteristic equation is as follows:
([K]-ω 2 [M]){U 0 }={0}
wherein [ K ]]Represents the stiffness matrix of the system, [ M ]]Representing the system quality matrix, U 0 Representing the vibration displacement of the system and omega representing the vibration circular frequency of the system. For the vibration system of the embodiment of the invention, the materials of all parts are known, and meanwhile, the target structure frequency ω is also known, so that the system mass matrix needs to be adjusted to find out the corresponding vibration displacement distribution, namely the vibration mode. The amplitude gain effect of the conducting rod (cutter bar) is mainly determined by the mass ratio before and after the node, and the following expression represents the relationship between the mass before and after the node and the gain ratio:
∫M 1 *Vel 1 *dx=∫M 2 *Vel 2 *dx (1)
∫M 1 *2πf*AMP 1 *dx=∫M 2 *2πf*AMP 2 *Vel 2 *dx (2)
wherein M is 1 、M 2 The masses before and after the node, vel respectively 1 、Vel 2 Velocity vectors before and after the node, respectively, and AMP 1 、AMP 2 The amplitudes of the input end and the output end are respectively equal according to the same medium density, so that the gain ratio gain can be equivalent to:
gain=M 1 /M 2 =AMP 2 /AMP 1 (3)
as shown in fig. 2, in the embodiment of the present invention, the distal rod body 3 may be provided with a gain step 30, which amplifies the amplitude of the ultrasonic wave, thereby enhancing the vibration effect and providing a more effective amplitude output to the cutter head. As shown in the above expressions (1) to (3), by adjusting the position of the gain step 30, the gain thereof can be changed.
As shown in fig. 3 and 4, in order to achieve a better vibration effect of the entire ultrasonic blade and alleviate the problem of excessive local stress of the shaft caused by the introduction of the gain step, the gain step 30 may be a double-layer gain step, and includes a first step 300 and a second step 301, and the first step 300 and the second step 301 are sequentially arranged in the direction from the blade to the distal shaft body 3. The distal shaft 3 diameter may be smaller than the first step 300 diameter, and the first step 300 diameter may be smaller than the second step 301 diameter. In the embodiment of the invention, the requirement on the vibration amplitude can be met through the structure of the double-layer gain step, and the requirement on the working strength of the cutter bar can also be met, so that the effect of slowly increasing the amplitude is achieved, and the requirement on the mechanical strength can also be ensured.
In the embodiment of the present invention, in order to obtain a reasonable acoustic gain, the ratio of the diameter D1 of the first step 300 to the diameter D2 of the second step 301 may be D1/D2 > 60%. Preferably, the ratio may be D1/D2 > 63.5%.
In the embodiment of the present invention, in the direction of sound wave transmission, i.e., the proximal rod 1, the middle rod 2, and the distal rod 3 are arranged in sequence from front to back, in order to better realize the acoustic characteristics thereof and ensure sufficient sound amplitude, the last node (the node at the farthest side) on the distal rod 3 is located in front of the second step 301, i.e., away from the tool tip.
In the embodiment of the present invention, for better mode shape, the distance from the last node on the distal rod 3 to the starting end of the second step portion 301 is less than 5% of half wavelength.
Generally speaking, the most dangerous region of an ultrasonic scalpel is at the abrupt bend of the blade tip, where the stress is greater due to the abrupt bend of the structure, which is also a relatively thin region. In the embodiment of the invention, after the double-layer gain step is introduced, the stress increase of the cutter head can be gradually relieved, and the stress is locally released when the double-layer gain step is transited from the female step (the second step part) to the sub step (the first step part), so that the stress at the bent part of the cutter head is transferred to a place with a larger size, and the bent abrupt change part is no longer the maximum stress part, therefore, the local stress of the cutter head is reduced, and the service life of the bent cutter head is prolonged. In the embodiment of the invention, in order to ensure the gain and the mode shape, the ratio of the axial distance a from the starting end of the second stepped part 301 to the starting end of the first stepped part 300 to the axial distance b from the end of the first stepped part 300 to the tool bit can be a/b ≧ 0.325, so that the tool bit can obtain larger amplitude in a mode with better mode shape. According to the embodiment of the invention, the vibration displacement cloud chart of the tool bit shows that the displacement distribution is very uniform, and the final gain of the tool bit is more than 3.5.
In the embodiment of the invention, in order to enable the whole ultrasonic scalpel to achieve a better vibration effect, a composite structure of a gain step and a conical structure can be arranged on the far rod body. In the embodiment of the present invention, a tapered structure may be further provided on the front side (the side away from the tool bit) of the gain step 30, and the node may be located within the position range of the tapered structure. By introducing the conical structure into the embodiment of the invention, the amplitude of the cutter tip is slowly increased, a local buffering effect is achieved, the vibration uniformity of the cutter tip is coordinated, and the working strength of the cutter head is enhanced to a certain extent. By adjusting the diameter of the input face and the diameter of the output face of the conical structure, the amplitude of the tip of the tool bit and the output of the associated resonant characteristics can be effectively controlled. For example, the amplitude of the tool nose can be reduced by increasing the diameter of the input surface, the amplitude output of the tool tip can be amplified by reducing the diameter of the output surface, and the relationship between the two is controlled to achieve better resonance characteristic output such as amplitude.
In embodiments of the invention, the ratio of the diameter of the input face to the diameter of the output face of the tapered structure may be greater than 0.9. Preferably, in an embodiment of the present invention, the ratio of the diameter of the input face to the output face of the tapered structure may be greater than 0.9 and less than 1.
In the embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 2, to perform amplification and structural reinforcement, a gain step 20 may be provided on the outer surface of the middle rod body 2 along the circumferential direction. Based on the principle similar to the above, in the embodiment of the present invention, the first node of the ultrasonic wave entering the middle rod body may be located at the front side of the gain step, and the effect of better vibration mode is achieved by adjusting the position of the node and further the structures on the left and right sides of the node. In order to provide better vibration mode for the ultrasonic blade conducting rod, in the embodiment of the present invention, the distance from the first node of the sound wave on the central rod body 2 to the gain step on the central rod body 2 may be 10% to 20% of a half wavelength, and preferably may be 15%. In the embodiment of the invention, the gain step is arranged on the middle rod body, so that the amplitude of ultrasonic waves can be amplified, the vibration effect is enhanced, and more effective amplitude output is provided for the cutter head.
The gain step provided at the middle rod 2 may also be a double gain step based on a similar description as in the distal rod. For the sake of brevity, the structure thereof will not be described in detail herein.
In embodiments of the present invention, the gain of the gain step on the middle and/or distal shaft body of the conductive shaft may be greater than 1, such that the resonant system of the ultrasonic blade is capable of greater and more uniform amplitude output.
In embodiments of the invention, the resonant bandwidth of the conductive rod may be greater than 100Hz.
