Fig. 1 and 3 show an electrode structure 100 according to an embodiment of the present utility model from different orientations, respectively, and fig. 2 is an enlarged schematic view at a in fig. 1. As shown in fig. 1 to 3, the electrode structure 100 includes a stem 110 and a working portion 120. The stem 110 includes a first proximal section 111 and a first distal section 112 that are axially connected. The thickness of the working portion 120 gradually decreases in a direction away from its own axis S1. The working portion 120 is connected to the first distal section 112, and an included angle α formed between the working portion 120 and the first proximal section 111 is an obtuse angle, so that an axis S1 of the working portion 120 intersects or is different from an axis S2 of the first proximal section 111. The "thickness of the working portion 120" herein refers to the dimension of the working portion 120 in its own axial direction.
The electrode structure 100 can be used as an inner electrode of the in-ear plasma electrode tip 10 (as shown in fig. 4 and 5), and the in-ear plasma electrode tip 10 has the advantages that the edge of the working portion 120 is thinner at ① due to the reduced thickness of the working portion 120 of the electrode structure 100 along the direction away from the axis S1, so that the output power of the in-ear plasma electrode tip 10 during operation is improved, and the plasma generated by the in-ear plasma electrode tip 10 excited by the medium is increased, thereby improving the operation efficiency, and the edge of the working portion 120 is sharper and corresponds to a blade portion, so that the working portion 120 can be used as a peeling tool to peel off the lesion tissue.
The outer contour of the working portion 120 is not particularly limited in the embodiment of the present utility model, and may have any suitable shape, such as a circle, an ellipse, or other shapes.
Preferably, as shown in fig. 1 and 2, a maximum thickness h1 of a portion of the working portion 120 contacting the lever portion 110 is greater than a maximum thickness h2 of other portions of the working portion 120. By doing so, the connection area between the working portion 120 and the rod portion 110 can be increased, so that the connection strength between the rod portion 110 and the working portion 120 is improved, the overall strength of the electrode structure 100 is further improved, and the risk that the connection portion between the rod portion 110 and the working portion 120 breaks in the use process of the electrode structure 100 is reduced.
Further, the lever 110 and the working part 120 are integrally formed. In practice, the first structure and the second structure may be formed at one time by punching, wherein the first structure is used as the lever portion 110, and the working portion 120 is formed by engraving the second structure. Such a molding manner is advantageous for further improving the overall strength of the electrode structure 100, thereby further reducing the risk of breakage of the connection portion between the rod portion 110 and the working portion 120 during use of the electrode structure 100.
Alternatively, as shown in fig. 1 and 2, the surface of the working portion 120 facing the proximal end is a working surface 121, and the working surface 121 is preferably a plane. The reason for this is that the working surface 121 is brought into contact with the tissue when the coagulation operation is performed on the tissue by the working portion 120, and the planar working surface 121 has a large contact area with the tissue, thereby improving the coagulation effect. Furthermore, the angle α mentioned in the foregoing refers to the angle formed between the working surface 121 and the first proximal section 111.
Alternatively, as shown in fig. 3, the working portion 120 is a ring-shaped structure having an inner bore 122. In this way, the inner bore 121 and the associated aspiration channel may be used to aspirate residue from an in-ear surgical procedure. The manner in which the aspiration channel is provided when performing an in-ear operation using the in-ear plasma electrode tip 10 is well known to those skilled in the art and will not be described in detail herein.
Optionally, an included angle β is formed between the first proximal section 111 and the first distal section 112, and the included angle β is an obtuse angle. The working portion 120 is located within the included angle β.
A plane parallel to the axis S2 of the first proximal section 111 and the axis S2 of the working portion 120 is defined as a preset plane, which is a plane of or parallel to the paper surface as seen in the orientation shown in fig. 1. The first distal segment 112 has opposite sides, a first side 1121 and a second side 1122, respectively, the second side 1122 being connected to the working portion 120. When the first distal segment 112 and the working portion 120 are projected onto the predetermined plane, the projection of the first distal segment 112 has opposite first and second edge lines, wherein the first edge line corresponds to the first side 1121 and the second edge line corresponds to the second side 1122, such that the second edge line is closer to the projection of the working portion 120 than the first edge line.
In the in-ear plasma electrode cutter head 10, the first distal end segment 112 is directly exposed. It is therefore preferred that the first edge line be curved with a concave side facing the first edge line, so that the conformation of the first distal segment 112 to the ear canal can be improved, making it easier for the first distal segment 112 to enter the ear and reach the lesion.
More preferably, the outer diameter of the first distal segment 112 also decreases in the proximal-to-distal direction to further improve the conformation of the first distal segment 112 to the ear canal.
Another object of the present utility model is to provide an in-ear plasma electrode cutting head 10 as shown in fig. 4 and 5. As shown in fig. 4 and 5, the in-ear plasma electrode-tip 10 includes an outer electrode 200, a first insulating structure 300, a second insulating structure 400, and the electrode structure 100 as described above. The outer electrode 200 and the first insulating structure 300 are elongated hollow members. Wherein the outer electrode 200 further comprises a second proximal section 210 and a second distal section 220 axially connected. The first insulating structure 300 partially penetrates the outer electrode 200, and the distal end of the first insulating structure 300 extends from the distal end of the outer electrode. The electrode structure 100 is partially disposed through the first insulating structure 300, and the first distal section 112 and the working portion 120 extend from the distal end of the first insulating structure 300. The second insulating structure 400 is disposed on a portion of the outer surface of the second proximal section 111.
That is, compared to the in-ear plasma electrode tip in the prior art, the in-ear plasma electrode tip 10 provided in the embodiment of the present utility model uses the electrode structure 100 as an inner electrode, so that the in-ear plasma electrode tip 10 can have higher output power to excite more plasmas, improve the operation efficiency, and make the in-ear plasma electrode tip 10 have good cutting, scratching, scraping and digging effects, so as to facilitate the peeling of diseased tissues.
Optionally, the second insulating layer structure 400 is an insulating coating coated on a portion of the outer surface of the second proximal section 210. In this way, the outer diameter of the in-ear plasma electrode tip 10 can be reduced, thereby making it easier for the in-ear plasma electrode tip 10 to enter the ear and reducing damage to the ear canal.
Optionally, the outer diameter of the outer electrode 200 decreases in a proximal to distal direction to facilitate the in-ear plasma electrode cutting head 10 to enter the ear and also reduce damage to the ear canal and increase the flexural strength of the outer electrode 200.
It is a further object of the present utility model to provide an in-ear surgical device 1 as shown in fig. 6. As shown in fig. 6, the in-ear surgical instrument 1 includes a handle 20, a power supply cable (not shown), and an in-ear plasma electrode-cutter head 10 as previously described. The handle 20 is hollow. The proximal end of the in-ear plasma electrode cutter head 10 extends into the interior of the handle 20 and is connected to the handle 20. The power supply cable includes a first cable having a distal end extending into the handle 20 and electrically connected to the proximal end of the stem 110, and a second cable having a distal end extending into the handle 20 and connected to the proximal end of the external electrode 200.
It will be appreciated that the proximal end of the stem 110 extends from the proximal end of the first insulating structure 300 to enable the proximal end of the stem 110 to be electrically connected to the distal end of the first cable. The area of the second proximal section 210 not covered by the second insulation structure 400 is located within the handle 20 and is electrically connected to the second cable.
The proximal end of the in-ear plasma electrode cutter head 10 may be directly connected to the handle 20 or indirectly connected thereto. In an alternative embodiment, the in-ear surgical device 1 further comprises a cannula holder 30, the proximal end of the cannula holder 30 being arranged inside the handle 20 and being connected to the handle 20. The distal end of the cannula mount 30 extends from the distal end of the handle 20. The proximal end of the in-ear plasma electrode cutter head 10 is arranged on the sleeve fixing frame 30 and is in insulating connection with the sleeve fixing frame 30. That is, the in-ear plasma electrode cutter head 10 is connected to the handle 20 through the cannula mount 30.
The sleeve mount 30 may be made of an insulating material or the sleeve mount 30 may comprise a body and an insulating layer provided on an outer surface of the body, thereby insulating between the sleeve mount 30 and the in-ear plasma torch head 10.
In addition, the proximal end of the handle 20 is also provided with a cable sheath 40. The proximal end of the power supply cable may extend from the proximal end of the cable sheath 40 to facilitate external power connection.
Although the present utility model is disclosed above, it is not limited thereto. Various modifications and alterations of this utility model may be made by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and scope of this utility model. Thus, it is intended that the present utility model also include such modifications and alterations insofar as they come within the scope of the appended claims or the equivalents thereof.
