Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Instrument, der im Oberbegriff des Anspruch 1 genannten Art.The The invention relates to an instrument, which in the preamble of claim 1 mentioned type.
Chirurgische endoskopische Instrumente mit Schaft und gegebenenfalls bewegbarer HF-beaufschlagbarer Elektrode werden verwendet, um bei endoskopischen Eingriffen mittels der Elektrode Gewebe zu koagulieren oder zu schneiden. Bei der Elektrode kann es sich z.B. um ein Maulteil einer Zange handeln oder um die längsbewegbare Schneidschlinge eines urologischen Resektoskopes. Solche Instrumente sind, auch mit gegenüber dem Schaft feststehender Elektrode für eine Reihe anderer Anwendungen im Gebrauch.surgical Endoscopic instruments with shaft and possibly movable HF-powered electrodes are used to perform endoscopic Interventions using the electrode to coagulate or cut tissue. The electrode may be e.g. around a jaw part of a pair of pliers act or about the longitudinally movable Cutting loop of a urological resectoscope. Such instruments are, even with opposite the stem of fixed electrode for a number of other applications in use.
Die Elektrode ist im Instrument elektrisch an einen Stutzen angeschlossen, auf den der Stecker eines HF-Kabels kuppelbar ist. Das Kabel führt zu einem HF-Generator, der z.B. in konventioneller Ausführung über einen Fußschalter geschaltet wird.The Electrode is electrically connected to a nozzle in the instrument, on which the plug of an RF cable can be coupled. The cable leads to a RF generator, the e.g. in conventional execution over a footswitch is switched.
Bei gattungsgemäßen Instrumenten ist zum Schalten des Generators ein Schalter am Instrument angeordnet und über eine Steuerleitung an den HF-Generator angeschlossen. Mit diesem Schalter kann der HF-Generator unmittelbar am Instrument geschaltet werden. Ein Fußschalter wird dadurch entbehrlich. Die Schaltbetätigung kann auf einfacher Weise mit derselben Hand erfolgen, die das Instrument hält.at generic instruments For switching the generator, a switch is arranged on the instrument and over a control line connected to the RF generator. With this Switch, the RF generator can be switched directly on the instrument become. A footswitch becomes dispensable. The shift operation can be done easily with the same hand holding the instrument.
Bei bekannten gattungsgemäßen Instrumenten ist der Schalter am Hauptkörper des Instrumentes angeordnet. Die Steuerleitung verläuft als gesondert zu verlegendes Kabel zum HF-Schalter, was ein zusätzlich störendes Kabel ergibt oder ist in das HF-Kabel integriert, so dass die Steuerleitung zusätzlich zur HF-Leitung im Stecker gekuppelt werden muss. Dadurch ergeben sich konstruktive Probleme am Stecker. Ferner ergeben sich konstruktive Probleme am Hauptkörper, in dessen sehr gedrängter Bauweise auch der Schalter untergebracht werden muss.at known generic instruments is the switch on the main body arranged the instrument. The control line runs as separately to be laid cable to the RF switch, what an additional disturbing cable results in or is integrated into the RF cable so that the control line additionally must be coupled to the RF line in the plug. This results constructive problems on the plug. Furthermore, there are constructive Problems with the main body, in its very crowded Construction also the switch must be accommodated.
Die Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung besteht darin, ein gattungsgemäßes Instrument konstruktiv einfacher auszubilden.The Object of the present invention is a generic instrument constructively easier to train.
Diese Aufgabe wird mit den Merkmalen des Kennzeichnungsteiles des Anspruches 1 gelöst.These Task is with the features of the characterizing part of the claim 1 solved.
Erfindungsgemäß ist der Schalter am Stecker angeordnet. Da der Stecker in unmittelbarer Nähe des Hauptkörpers sitzt, liegt der Schalter somit in Bedienungsreichweite der Finger der den Hauptkörper haltenden Hand und läßt sich bequem bedienen. Die komplizierte Integration des Schalters in den Hauptkörper entfällt. Vielmehr sitzt der Schalter am Stecker, der dafür ausreichend Platz aufweist. Eine Durchführung der Steuerleitung durch die Kupplungsstelle entfällt. Vielmehr kann die Steuerleitung vom Stecker aus, vorzugsweise gemäß Anspruch 2 in das HF-Kabel integriert, direkt zum HF-Generator verlaufen.According to the invention Switch arranged on the plug. Since the plug sits in the immediate vicinity of the main body, the switch is thus within reach of the fingers of the the main body holding hand and lets himself convenient to use. The complicated integration of the switch in the main body is eliminated. Much more the switch sits on the plug, which has enough space for it. An implementation the control line through the coupling point is eliminated. Rather, the control line of Plug, preferably according to claim 2 integrated into the RF cable, run directly to the HF generator.
Vorzugsweise sind die Merkmale des Anspruches 3 vorgesehen. Der seitlich liegende Stecker läßt sich besonders gut von einem Finger der das Instrument am Hauptkörper haltenden Hand (bspw. Zeigefinger oder Daumen) betätigen, vor allem, wenn in üblicher Ausbildung auch die Griffstücke, an denen die Hand angreift, in der Mittelebene liegen.Preferably the features of claim 3 are provided. The laterally lying Plug can be especially good of a finger holding the instrument to the main body Hand (for example, index finger or thumb) press, especially if in ordinary Training also the grips, where the hand attacks lie in the median plane.
Vorteilhaft ist dabei gemäß Anspruch 4 der Stecker drehfest gekuppelt, so dass die Schalterstellung zu sicherer Bedienung eindeutig festgelegt ist.Advantageous is in accordance with claim 4 of the plug rotatably coupled, so that the switch position to secure operation is clearly defined.
Bei einem solchen drehfest gekuppelten Stecker sind vorteilhaft die Merkmale des Anspruches 5 vorgesehen. Die seitlichen Verlängerungen, die den Hauptkörper seitlich umfassen, können als einfache Drehsicherung dienen. Eine der Verlängerungen trägt den Schalter, so dass dieser unmittelbar seitlich auf dem Hauptkörper in sehr bequemer Fingerreichweite angeordnet ist.at such a rotatably coupled connector are advantageous to Features of claim 5 is provided. The lateral extensions, the the main body can include laterally serve as a simple anti-rotation device. One of the extensions carries the switch, so that this is immediately on the side of the main body very comfortable finger reach is arranged.
Vorteilhaft sind nach Anspruch 6 zwei Schalter auf gegenüberliegenden Seiten des Steckers angeordnet. Diese können dieselbe Funktion erfüllen, z.B. Ein- und Ausschalten des Stromes, so dass das Instrument für Rechts- und Linkshändler gleich gut bedienbar ist. Die beiden Schalter können auch unterschiedliche Funktionen steuern, wie z.B. ein Schalter das Ein- und Ausschalten des Stromes und ein anderer Schalter das Umschalten zwischen verschiedenen Stromarten, z.B. für Koagulation, bzw. zum Schneiden.Advantageous are according to claim 6, two switches on opposite sides of the plug arranged. these can perform the same function, e.g. Turning the power on and off, so that the instrument for legal and left-handers is equally easy to use. The two switches can also be different Control functions, such as a switch on and off of the current and another switch switching between different ones Currents, e.g. For Coagulation, or for cutting.
Der Schalter kann weitgehend beliebig ausgebildet sein z.B. als Kippschalter. Vorteilhaft ist er jedoch gemäß Anspruch 7 als Druckschalter ausgebildet, der durch einfachen Druck eines Fingers betätigbar ist.Of the Switch can be made largely arbitrary, e.g. as a toggle switch. However, it is advantageous according to the claim 7 formed as a pressure switch, the simple pressure of a Fingers operable is.
