Description

本発明は、内視鏡用注射針および内視鏡用注射針の製造方法に関する。   The present invention relates to an endoscope injection needle and a method for manufacturing an endoscope injection needle.

内視鏡下に食道、胃、大腸等の粘膜を切除する内視鏡的粘膜切除術(EMR)および内視鏡的粘膜下層剥離術(ESD)施工時に、粘膜と筋層との剥離を要する場合がある。この場合、先端に針体が付設された内管チューブとその内管チューブを挿通自在にする外チューブとを有した内視鏡用注射針を挿入して、患部に生理食塩水や薬液等(以下、単に液体ともいう)を注入することが通常実施されている。
内視鏡用注射針は、例えば1mから2m程度の長尺の内視鏡内に設けられたチャネルに挿入され、所定の患部において針体を穿刺する。液体は、内視鏡の基端側から長尺の内管チューブを通して針体の先端から吐出される。
When performing endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) and endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) to remove the mucosa of the esophagus, stomach, large intestine, etc. under the endoscope, separation of the mucosa and muscle layer is required There is a case. In this case, an endoscope injection needle having an inner tube having a needle body attached to the tip and an outer tube through which the inner tube can be inserted is inserted, and a physiological saline solution or a drug solution ( In the following, it is usually carried out.
The endoscope injection needle is inserted into a channel provided in a long endoscope having a length of about 1 to 2 m, for example, and punctures the needle body at a predetermined affected area. The liquid is discharged from the distal end of the needle body through the long inner tube from the proximal end side of the endoscope.

針体は、穿刺したときの傷を小さくするためにたとえば外径0.65mm以下のものが好適に使用されている。これに対し、注入抵抗を小さくするために内管チューブの内径はたとえば0.8mm以上とすることが好ましい。その結果、針体の外表面と内管チューブの内表面との間には間隙が形成されていた。上記間隙を埋めて、針体の外表面と内管チューブの内表面とを接続するための接続部材が設けられた内視鏡用注射針が提案されている。   For example, a needle body having an outer diameter of 0.65 mm or less is preferably used in order to reduce the damage when puncturing. On the other hand, in order to reduce the injection resistance, the inner diameter of the inner tube is preferably set to 0.8 mm or more, for example. As a result, a gap was formed between the outer surface of the needle body and the inner surface of the inner tube. An endoscope injection needle provided with a connection member for filling the gap and connecting the outer surface of the needle body and the inner surface of the inner tube is proposed.

例えば、下記特許文献1に記載の内視鏡用注射針(以下、従来技術1ともいう)は、針体の先端と反対側の端部にコイル状部材(接続部材)を外嵌して該コイル状部材を該針体に固着し、該コイル状部材に上記内管チューブを外嵌して固着している。
上記コイル状部材が設けられることによって、上記針体の外表面と内管チューブの内表面との間の空隙が埋められている。
For example, an endoscope injection needle (hereinafter also referred to as conventional art 1) described in Patent Document 1 below has a coiled member (connection member) externally fitted to the end opposite to the tip of the needle body. A coiled member is fixed to the needle body, and the inner tube is externally fixed to the coiled member.
By providing the coil-shaped member, a gap between the outer surface of the needle body and the inner surface of the inner tube is filled.

特許文献1において、針体の外径より小径な内径を持つコイル状部材が針体に外嵌されてもよいことが記載されている。また、特許文献1において、針体とコイル状部材(コイルスプリング)とは、接着剤を用いて接着固定されることによって締結されてもよいことが記載されている。   Patent Document 1 describes that a coil-shaped member having an inner diameter smaller than the outer diameter of the needle body may be fitted onto the needle body. Patent Document 1 describes that the needle body and the coiled member (coil spring) may be fastened by being bonded and fixed using an adhesive.

しかし従来技術1に例示される針体と内管チューブとの間の間隙を埋めて、当該針体と当該内管チューブとを接続する接続部材を有する内視鏡用注射針は、以下の課題を有していた。   However, an endoscope injection needle having a connection member that fills a gap between the needle body and the inner tube tube exemplified in the prior art 1 and connects the needle body and the inner tube tube has the following problems. Had.

即ち、内視鏡に挿通された内視鏡用注射針において、長尺の内管チューブの基端側から注入された液体が、先端側に設けられた針体まで運ばれ、当該針体の先端から吐出されるためには、当該液体に強い吐出圧を付与する必要がある。強い吐出圧で内管チューブを流通する液体は、針体と接続部材との境界に強い圧力を与え得る。その結果、針体と接続部材との間に液体が流通可能な間隙が生じる虞があった。あるいは、針体と接続部材との間に形成されてしまっていた液体の流通不可能な僅かな空隙が、上記圧力によって拡張され液体が流通可能な間隙となる虞があった。
上記液体が流通可能な間隙が、針体と接続部材との間に生じることにより、水密性が低下し、液体が接続部材の先端に漏れ出る虞があった。
That is, in the endoscope injection needle inserted through the endoscope, the liquid injected from the proximal end side of the long inner tube is carried to the needle body provided on the distal end side, and the needle body In order to be discharged from the tip, it is necessary to apply a strong discharge pressure to the liquid. The liquid flowing through the inner tube with a strong discharge pressure can give a strong pressure to the boundary between the needle body and the connecting member. As a result, there is a possibility that a gap through which the liquid can flow is formed between the needle body and the connection member. Alternatively, there is a possibility that a slight gap that cannot flow through the liquid formed between the needle body and the connecting member is expanded by the pressure and becomes a gap through which the liquid can flow.
Since the gap through which the liquid can flow is formed between the needle body and the connection member, the watertightness is lowered, and there is a possibility that the liquid leaks to the tip of the connection member.

本発明は上記課題に鑑みてなされたものである。即ち、本発明は、接続部材の基端面から針体と接続部材との間までに亘り針体と接続部材とを接合する樹脂層を有し、水密性に優れる内視鏡用注射針および内視鏡用注射針の製造方法を提供する。   The present invention has been made in view of the above problems.

Show. 2b is a schematic cross-sectional view of the distal end region of the endoscope injection needle 100 surrounded by a broken-line circle in FIG. 2a. In FIG. 2b, the needle body 10 and the connection member 70 are illustrated in a side view for ease of illustration.

4 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line IV-IV in the distal end region of the endoscope injection needle 100 shown in FIG.

図3に示すとおり、内視鏡用注射針100は、内管チューブ20と、針体10と、接続部材70と、を有する。
内管チューブ20は、液体を注入するためのチューブである。
針体10は、内管チューブ20の先端に設けられている。
接続部材70は、軸方向に貫通し針体10が挿通する挿通孔80を有し、内管チューブ20の内表面と針体10との外表面との間に配置され針体10と内管チューブ20とを接続している。
内視鏡用注射針100は、接続部材70の基端面73から針体の外表面と接続部材70の内表面との間までに亘り連続し針体10と接続部材70とを接合する樹脂層90が設けられている。
As shown in FIG. 3, the endoscope injection needle 100 includes an inner tube 20, a needle body 10, and a connection member 70.
The inner tube 20 is a tube for injecting liquid.
The needle body 10 is provided at the tip of the inner tube 20.
The connecting member 70 has an insertion hole 80 through which the needle body 10 is inserted in the axial direction, and is disposed between the inner surface of the inner tube tube 20 and the outer surface of the needle body 10. The tube 20 is connected.
The endoscope injection needle 100 is a resin layer that joins the needle body 10 and the connection member 70 continuously from the base end surface 73 of the connection member 70 to between the outer surface of the needle body and the inner surface of the connection member 70. 90 is provided.

たとえば、本実施形態における接続部材70は、内管チューブ20内に配置される接続部本体71と、内管チューブ20の内径よりも大きい外径を有し内管チューブ20の遠位端より遠位側に配置される大径部72と、を有している。ただし、接続部材70の構成はこれに限定されず、本発明の所期の課題を解決可能な範囲において適宜変更することができる。   For example, the connection member 70 in the present embodiment has a connection portion main body 71 disposed in the inner tube 20 and an outer diameter larger than the inner diameter of the inner tube 20 and is farther from the distal end of the inner tube 20. A large-diameter portion 72 disposed on the rear side. However, the configuration of the connection member 70 is not limited to this, and can be changed as appropriate within a range in which the intended problem of the present invention can be solved.

内視鏡用注射針100は、樹脂層90を有することによって、内管チューブ20を流通する液体の吐出圧の影響を強く受ける接続部材70の基端側において針体10と接続部材70との間に液体が流入することが防止される。したがって内視鏡用注射針100は、針体10と接続部材70との間における水密性に優れる。   Since the endoscope injection needle 100 has the resin layer 90, the needle 10 and the connection member 70 are connected to each other on the proximal end side of the connection member 70 that is strongly influenced by the discharge pressure of the liquid flowing through the inner tube 20. The liquid is prevented from flowing in between. Therefore, the endoscope injection needle 100 is excellent in water tightness between the needle body 10 and the connection member 70.

樹脂層90を有しない場合に、たとえば使用前においては針体10の外表面と接続部材70の内表面とが密に当接していても、液体の吐出圧で針体10の外表面と接続部材70の内表面との間に亀裂や剥離が生じる虞がある。当該亀裂や当該剥離の部分に液体の吐出圧がかかって剥離進展または亀裂進展して間隙が形成され、水密性が低下し得る。これに対し、内視鏡用注射針100は、予め上述のとおり樹脂層90が設けられているため、良好な水密性を維持することができる。   When the resin layer 90 is not provided, even if the outer surface of the needle body 10 and the inner surface of the connection member 70 are in close contact with each other before use, for example, the connection is made with the outer surface of the needle body 10 by the liquid discharge pressure. There is a possibility that cracks or peeling may occur between the inner surface of the member 70. A liquid discharge pressure is applied to the crack and the peeling portion, and the separation progresses or the crack progresses to form a gap, so that the watertightness can be lowered. In contrast, since the endoscope injection needle 100 is provided with the resin layer 90 in advance as described above, it can maintain good water tightness.

図3および図4に示すとおり、本実施形態にかかる内視鏡用注射針100は、接続部材70の基端面73から挿通孔80の少なくとも近位側近傍までに亘り、樹脂層90が、針体10の外周全体を覆っている。
かかる構成によれば、挿通孔80の基端側において、接続部材70と針体10との境界全体を樹脂層90で覆れることにより、液体の吐出圧が当該境界にかかっても接続部材70と針体10との間に間隙が形成されることが良好に防止される。したがって接続部材70と針体10との間において高い水密性が示される。
As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the endoscope injection needle 100 according to the present embodiment extends from the proximal end surface 73 of the connection member 70 to at least the vicinity of the proximal side of the insertion hole 80, and the resin layer 90 includes the needle. The entire outer periphery of the body 10 is covered.
According to this configuration, the entire boundary between the connection member 70 and the needle body 10 is covered with the resin layer 90 on the proximal end side of the insertion hole 80, so that the connection member 70 can be applied even when liquid discharge pressure is applied to the boundary. It is well prevented that a gap is formed between the needle body 10 and the needle body 10. Therefore, high water tightness is shown between the connecting member 70 and the needle body 10.

ここで挿通孔80の近位側近傍とは、厳密な限定はなく、樹脂層90が基端面73から針体10と接続部材70との間に有意に入り込んでいることが確認できる程度を意味する。
たとえば、基端面73から連続する樹脂層90が、挿通孔80の基端から先端に向けて、内管チューブ20の内部に配置される接続部材70の壁面の厚み寸法x(図3)程度の距離まで、針体10の外周全体を覆って延在していることがより好ましい。
さらに高い水密性を維持するという観点からは、基端面73から連続する樹脂層90が、挿通孔80の基端から先端に向けて、内管チューブ20の内部に配置される接続部材70の軸長の二分の一程度の距離まで延在していることがより好ましい。
Here, the vicinity of the proximal side of the insertion hole 80 is not strictly limited, and means that it can be confirmed that the resin layer 90 has entered significantly between the needle body 10 and the connecting member 70 from the base end face 73. To do.
For example, the resin layer 90 continuous from the base end surface 73 is about the thickness dimension x (FIG. 3) of the wall surface of the connection member 70 disposed inside the inner tube 20 from the base end to the tip end of the insertion hole 80. More preferably, it extends over the entire outer periphery of the needle body 10 to a distance.
From the standpoint of maintaining higher water tightness, the axis of the connecting member 70 in which the resin layer 90 continuous from the base end face 73 is arranged inside the inner tube 20 from the base end to the tip end of the insertion hole 80. More preferably, it extends to a distance of about one half of the length.

接続部材70は、内部に針体10を挿通する挿通孔80が設けられている。
FIG. 2 b shows a cross-sectional view of the distal end region of the endoscope injection needle 100 in a protruding state. At the distal end of the outer tube 30, a contact portion 31 is provided on which the distal end of the inner tube 20 or the distal end of the connection member 70 can contact. The contact portion 31 is a tapered portion formed by, for example, inclining the distal end of the outer tube 30 about 45 ° radially inward from the proximal side to the distal side.

The inner tube 20 has a needle body 10 attached to the distal end thereof, and is slidably inserted through the outer tube 30.
In the present embodiment, the needle body 10 is illustrated as being attached to the forefront of the inner tube 20, but the present invention is not limited to this, and does not hinder the functions necessary for the endoscope injection needle 100. The attachment position may be changed.

内管チューブ20の構成部材は、特に限定されないが、外管チューブ30内を摺動するため、一定の低摩擦性・非粘着性を有することが好ましく、さらに耐薬品性が高いと良い。一般的には、上記部材として、テトラフルオロエチレン重合体(PTFE)やテトラフルオロエチレン・パーフルオロアルコキシエチレン共重合体(PFA)等のフッ素樹脂、ポリアミド樹脂(ナイロン樹脂)などを用いることができる。
内管チューブ20の外径および内径は特に限定されないが、例えば、外径は1.2mm以上1.7mm以下、内径は0.5mm以上1mm以下の範囲とすることができる。
The constituent members of the inner tube 20 are not particularly limited. However, since the inner tube 20 slides in the outer tube 30, it is preferable that the inner tube 20 has a certain low friction property and non-adhesiveness, and further has high chemical resistance. In general, a fluororesin such as tetrafluoroethylene polymer (PTFE) or tetrafluoroethylene / perfluoroalkoxyethylene copolymer (PFA), polyamide resin (nylon resin), or the like can be used as the member.
The outer diameter and inner diameter of the inner tube 20 are not particularly limited. For example, the outer diameter can be in the range of 1.2 mm to 1.7 mm, and the inner diameter can be in the range of 0.5 mm to 1 mm.

外管チューブ30は、基端側の一部が、外筒グリップ40の内面に接合されている。
なお、本実施形態では外筒グリップ40の内面と外管チューブ30の外面とが接合するように図示したが、外筒グリップ40の外面と外管チューブ30の内面とが接合する構成であっても構わない。また、外管チューブ30と外筒グリップ40の接合には、図示しない留め具が使われてもよいし、接着剤が用いられてもよい。
A portion of the outer tube 30 on the base end side is joined to the inner surface of the outer cylinder grip 40.
In the present embodiment, the inner surface of the outer tube grip 40 and the outer surface of the outer tube tube 30 are illustrated as being joined, but the outer surface of the outer tube grip 40 and the inner surface of the outer tube tube 30 are bonded. It doesn't matter. For joining the outer tube 30 and the outer cylinder grip 40, a fastener (not shown) may be used, or an adhesive may be used.

外管チューブ30の構成部材は、特に限定されないが、内視鏡の処置具挿通チャンネルの中に挿通して用いるため一定の低摩擦性・非粘着性を有することが好ましい。一般的には、上記構成部材として、ポリオレフィン樹脂、ポリアミド樹脂(ナイロン樹脂)、ポリウレタン樹脂等を用いることができる。また、上述のフッ素樹脂が外管チューブ30の構成部材として用いられてもよい。   Although the constituent member of the outer tube 30 is not particularly limited, it is preferable that the outer tube 30 has a certain low friction and non-adhesiveness because it is inserted into the treatment instrument insertion channel of the endoscope. In general, polyolefin resin, polyamide resin (nylon resin), polyurethane resin, or the like can be used as the constituent member. Moreover, the above-mentioned fluororesin may be used as a constituent member of the outer tube 30.

外管チューブ30の内部において内管チューブ20がスムーズに摺動可能なよう、外管チューブ30の内表面と内管チューブ20の外表面との間には適度なクリアランスが設けられている。たとえば、外管チューブ30の外径および内径は特に限定されないが、たとえば外径は2mm以上2.6mm以下、内径は1.3mm以上1.9mm以下の範囲とすることができる。   An appropriate clearance is provided between the inner surface of the outer tube 30 and the outer surface of the inner tube 20 so that the inner tube 20 can slide smoothly inside the outer tube 30. For example, the outer diameter and inner diameter of the outer tube 30 are not particularly limited. For example, the outer diameter can be in the range of 2 mm to 2.6 mm, and the inner diameter can be in the range of 1.3 mm to 1.9 mm.

本実施形態における接続部材70は、図3に示すとおり、内管チューブ20内に配置される接続部本体71と、内管チューブ20の内径よりも大きい外径を有し内管チューブ20の遠位端より遠位側に配置される大径部72と、を有している。内視鏡用注射針100において、樹脂層90が基端面73から大径部72の内表面までに亘り連続して設けられている。   As shown in FIG. 3, the connection member 70 in the present embodiment has a connection portion main body 71 disposed in the inner tube 20 and an outer diameter larger than the inner diameter of the inner tube 20, and is far from the inner tube 20. A large-diameter portion 72 disposed on the distal side of the distal end. In the endoscope injection needle 100, the resin layer 90 is continuously provided from the base end surface 73 to the inner surface of the large diameter portion 72.

即ち、樹脂層90は、針体10の外表面と接続部材70の内表面との間において広範囲に設けられている。そのため、高い水密性が発揮される。
尚、ここで連続しているとは、樹脂層90が、針体10の外周の全領域を覆うとともに、軸方向に連続的に設けられている場合と、針体10の外周を断続的に覆うとともに、軸方向に連続的に設けられている場合とを含む。
That is, the resin layer 90 is provided in a wide range between the outer surface of the needle body 10 and the inner surface of the connection member 70. Therefore, high water tightness is exhibited.
Here, “continuous” means that the resin layer 90 covers the entire outer periphery of the needle body 10 and is provided continuously in the axial direction, and the outer periphery of the needle body 10 is intermittently provided. And the case where it is continuously provided in the axial direction.

本実施形態における接続部材70は、略均一の内径を有している。接続部材70の内径は、針体10の外径と略同等である。ここで略同等とは、接続部材70の内表面と針体10の外表面との間に樹脂層90が形成可能な程度の差異を含むという意味である。
接続部本体71の外径は、内管チューブ20の内径と略同等である。
接続部材70は、筒状体であって、たとえば円筒体である。
本実施形態における大径部72の外径は、内管チューブ20の外径よりも小さい。また、大径部72の軸長は、接続部本体71に比べて有意に短く、たとえば、当該軸長を、突出状態(図2b)にあるとき、当接部31と、当接部31に当接する内管チューブ20の先端との間との距離以下の寸法とすることができる。
本実施形態では、接続部本体71および大径部72はいずれも外形が円筒形状である。
The connection member 70 in this embodiment has a substantially uniform inner diameter. The inner diameter of the connecting member 70 is substantially the same as the outer diameter of the needle body 10. Here, “substantially equivalent” means that there is a difference that allows the resin layer 90 to be formed between the inner surface of the connecting member 70 and the outer surface of the needle body 10.
The outer diameter of the connecting portion main body 71 is substantially the same as the inner diameter of the inner tube 20.
The connection member 70 is a cylindrical body, for example, a cylindrical body.
The outer diameter of the large diameter portion 72 in the present embodiment is smaller than the outer diameter of the inner tube 20. Further, the axial length of the large diameter portion 72 is significantly shorter than that of the connecting portion main body 71. For example, when the axial length is in the protruding state (FIG. 2b), the contact portion 31 and the contact portion 31 It can be set to a dimension equal to or less than the distance from the tip of the inner tube 20 that abuts.
In this embodiment, both the connection part main body 71 and the large diameter part 72 have a cylindrical outer shape.

接続部材70の構成部材は特に限定されない。たとえば接続部材70は、インサート成形により形成された樹脂部材よりなる態様、上述する従来技術1のごとくコイル、特には金属の線状部材からなるコイルよりなる態様、あるいは、ステンレスなどの金属材料からなる壁面略平坦な筒状体よりなる態様を含む。   The constituent members of the connecting member 70 are not particularly limited. For example, the connection member 70 is made of a resin member formed by insert molding, a coil made of a coil, in particular, a coil made of a metal linear member, or a metal material such as stainless steel, as in the prior art 1 described above. The aspect which consists of a cylindrical body with a substantially flat wall surface is included.

例えば接続部材70が、インサート成形により針体10の外周を覆って形成された樹脂部材よりなる態様である場合には、以下の樹脂層90を設けることが好ましい。即ち、基端側の一部領域における接続部材70と針体10との間において、針体10の外表面に沿う空隙を予め形成し、当該空隙を充填するよう樹脂層90を設けてもよい。これにより、針体10の外表面に異種材料よりなる界面が形成され基端側からの剥離進展が防止されるため水密性が向上する。   For example, when the connection member 70 is an aspect formed of a resin member that covers the outer periphery of the needle body 10 by insert molding, the following resin layer 90 is preferably provided. That is, a gap along the outer surface of the needle body 10 may be formed in advance between the connection member 70 and the needle body 10 in a partial region on the proximal end side, and the resin layer 90 may be provided so as to fill the gap. . Thereby, since the interface which consists of a different material is formed in the outer surface of the needle body 10, and peeling progress from a base end side is prevented, watertightness improves.

樹脂層90は、針体10の外表面と接続部材70の内表面とを接合可能な樹脂部材から構成される。上記樹脂部材は特に限定されないが、たとえば一例として、エポキシ樹脂、ウレタン樹脂、シアノアクリレート樹脂などの接着剤として使用可能な樹脂部材、あるいは、ABS樹脂やポリアミド樹脂、ウレタン樹脂などの熱可塑性樹脂を挙げることができる。   The resin layer 90 is composed of a resin member that can join the outer surface of the needle body 10 and the inner surface of the connection member 70. The resin member is not particularly limited. For example, a resin member that can be used as an adhesive such as an epoxy resin, a urethane resin, or a cyanoacrylate resin, or a thermoplastic resin such as an ABS resin, a polyamide resin, or a urethane resin can be given as an example. be able to.

図3に示すとおり、本実施形態において、針体10は、接続部材70の基端面73よりも近位側まで延在する近位側延在部12を有している。内視鏡用注射針100は、樹脂層90から連続し近位側延在部12の外表面と内管チューブ20の内表面との間を埋める樹脂充填部110を備えている。
近位側延在部12は、針体10の基端側であって、接続部材70より突出する部分である。
As shown in FIG. 3, in the present embodiment, the needle body 10 has a proximal side extending portion 12 that extends to the proximal side with respect to the proximal end surface 73 of the connecting member 70. The endoscope injection needle 100 includes a resin filling portion 110 that is continuous from the resin layer 90 and fills between the outer surface of the proximal extension portion 12 and the inner surface of the inner tube 20.
The proximal extension portion 12 is a portion protruding from the connection member 70 on the proximal end side of the needle body 10.

樹脂充填部110は、樹脂層90を構成する樹脂部材と同一の材料により樹脂層90と一体的に形成することができる。また樹脂充填部110は、樹脂層90を構成する樹脂部材と同一または異なる樹脂部材を用い、樹脂層90の形成工程とは別工程により形成されるとともにその界面が接合している態様であってもよい。   The resin filling part 110 can be integrally formed with the resin layer 90 by the same material as the resin member constituting the resin layer 90. In addition, the resin filling portion 110 is a mode in which a resin member that is the same as or different from the resin member constituting the resin layer 90 is used and formed at a step different from the step of forming the resin layer 90 and the interface thereof is joined. Also good.

一般的に、近位側延在部12を有する針体10において、接続部材70に内在する針体10と近位側延在部12における針体10との境界近傍は曲げ剛性が小さい。したがって針体10の基端側において屈曲方向に力が付与されると、当該境界近傍において針体10が塑性変形する虞がある。
これに対し、樹脂充填部110は、空間130に露出する針体10と接続部材70に内在する針体10との剛性の差異を緩やかに変化させ得る緩衝領域として作用し、上記塑性変形の問題を回避し得る。
In general, in the needle body 10 having the proximal side extending portion 12, the bending rigidity is small in the vicinity of the boundary between the needle body 10 in the connection member 70 and the needle body 10 in the proximal side extending portion 12. Therefore, when a force is applied in the bending direction on the proximal end side of the needle body 10, the needle body 10 may be plastically deformed in the vicinity of the boundary.
On the other hand, the resin filling portion 110 acts as a buffer region that can gradually change the difference in rigidity between the needle body 10 exposed in the space 130 and the needle body 10 existing in the connection member 70, and the problem of the plastic deformation described above. Can be avoided.

樹脂充填部110の軸長は、特に限定されないが、内管チューブ20内に配置された接続部材70の軸長と略同等または接続部材70の軸長以上であることが好ましい。これにより塑性変形を回避させる効果がより良好に発揮され得る。   Although the axial length of the resin filling part 110 is not particularly limited, it is preferable that the axial length of the connecting member 70 disposed in the inner tube 20 is approximately equal to or longer than the axial length of the connecting member 70. Thereby, the effect which avoids plastic deformation can be exhibited more favorably.

樹脂充填部110の軸長は、たとえば、樹脂充填部110の外周面において90°ピッチで4箇所の軸方向長さを測定し、その平均により算出することができる。接続部材70の軸長と樹脂充填部110の軸長とが略同等とは、樹脂充填部110の軸長が、接続部材70の軸長に対し、90%以上110%以下の範囲であることを含む。   The axial length of the resin filling portion 110 can be calculated, for example, by measuring four axial lengths at a 90 ° pitch on the outer peripheral surface of the resin filling portion 110 and averaging them. The axial length of the connecting member 70 and the axial length of the resin filling portion 110 are substantially equal to each other. The axial length of the resin filling portion 110 is in the range of 90% to 110% with respect to the axial length of the connecting member 70. including.

本実施形態にかかる内視鏡用注射針100は、樹脂層90に加えて、さらに第二樹脂層92を備えている。
即ち、内視鏡用注射針100は、大径部72の外径と接続部本体71の外径との差異により形成される段差面74と内管チューブ20の先端面75との間に第二樹脂層92が設けられている。
The endoscope injection needle 100 according to this embodiment further includes a second resin layer 92 in addition to the resin layer 90.
In other words, the endoscope injection needle 100 is formed between the stepped surface 74 formed by the difference between the outer diameter of the large diameter portion 72 and the outer diameter of the connection portion main body 71 and the distal end surface 75 of the inner tube 20. Two resin layers 92 are provided.

第二樹脂層92を有することにより、段差面74と内管チューブ20の先端とを確実に接合することができる。そのため、大径部72と内管チューブ20先との境界において、亀裂が入り、両者の間に隙間が形成されることを防止する。したがって、段差面74および内管チューブ20の間における水密性が良好である。
また、針体10と接続部材70とを樹脂層90を介して接合するとともに、接続部材70と内管チューブ20とを第二樹脂層92を介して接合することにより、針体10と内管チューブ20とを間接的に接続することができる。
By having the second resin layer 92, the stepped surface 74 and the tip of the inner tube 20 can be reliably bonded. Therefore, a crack is prevented at the boundary between the large diameter portion 72 and the inner tube 20 tip, and a gap is prevented from being formed between them. Therefore, the water tightness between the stepped surface 74 and the inner tube 20 is good.
In addition, the needle body 10 and the connecting member 70 are joined via the resin layer 90, and the connecting member 70 and the inner tube tube 20 are joined via the second resin layer 92, whereby the needle body 10 and the inner tube are joined. The tube 20 can be indirectly connected.

尚、図3において図示省略するが、本実施形態はさらに接続部材70の外表面と内管チューブ20の内表面の間に第三樹脂層を設けてもよい。たとえば第三樹脂層は、第二樹脂層92と連続的に設けることもできる。第二樹脂層92と連続して設けられた第三樹脂層であれば、接続部材70の外表面と内管チューブ20の内表面の間に第三樹脂層が確実に形成されていることを、第二樹脂層92を目視確認することで、確認可能である。第三樹脂層が設けられることによって、内管チューブ20と接続部材70との接合強度の信頼性を向上する。上述する第三樹脂層は、後述する第三実施形態において示す第三樹脂層98が適宜参照される。   Although not shown in FIG. 3, in the present embodiment, a third resin layer may be provided between the outer surface of the connection member 70 and the inner surface of the inner tube 20. For example, the third resin layer can be provided continuously with the second resin layer 92. If the third resin layer is provided continuously with the second resin layer 92, the third resin layer is reliably formed between the outer surface of the connecting member 70 and the inner surface of the inner tube 20. This can be confirmed by visually confirming the second resin layer 92. By providing the third resin layer, the reliability of the bonding strength between the inner tube 20 and the connecting member 70 is improved. For the third resin layer described above, the third resin layer 98 shown in the third embodiment to be described later is referred to as appropriate.

本実施形態にかかる内視鏡用注射針200において、樹脂層90は、固定部94の近位側近傍までに亘り連続している。
縮径領域95は、固定部94の近位側および遠位側において固定部94に向かって連続的に縮径している。
The endoscope injection needle 200 has a reduced diameter region 95 in which the insertion hole 80 in the connection member 70 is reduced in diameter in a predetermined region. In the endoscope injection needle 200, the outer surface of the needle body 10 and the inner surface of the connection member 70 are joined and fixed by abutting the axial intermediate portion of the reduced diameter region 95 with the outer surface of the needle body 10. Has been. A portion where the outer surface of the needle body 10 and the inner surface of the connecting member 70 are joined and fixed is referred to as a fixing portion 94.
In the endoscope injection needle 200 according to the present embodiment, the resin layer 90 is continuous over the vicinity of the proximal side of the fixing portion 94.
The reduced diameter region 95 is continuously reduced in diameter toward the fixing portion 94 on the proximal side and the distal side of the fixing portion 94.

固定部94の近位側に空隙があると、固定部94の近位端に液体の吐出圧による応力が集中し、固定部94に亀裂が生じやすいところ、固定部94の近位側近傍まで樹脂層90が設けられることにより、固定部94に亀裂が生じることを良好に防止する。
また樹脂層90が基端面73から固定部94の近位側近傍まで連続して延在することにより、優れた水密性が発揮される。
If there is a gap on the proximal side of the fixing portion 94, stress due to the discharge pressure of the liquid concentrates on the proximal end of the fixing portion 94, and the fixing portion 94 is liable to crack. By providing the resin layer 90, it is possible to satisfactorily prevent the fixing portion 94 from being cracked.
Further, the resin layer 90 continuously extends from the base end face 73 to the vicinity of the proximal side of the fixing portion 94, whereby excellent water tightness is exhibited.

ここで固定部94の近位側近傍とは、少なくとも固定部94の近位端と基端面73との二分の一の地点よりも固定部94に近い地点をいい、図5に示す縮径領域95の近位端よりも遠位側の地点または近位側の地点のいずれも含む。樹脂層90の軸長の距離を充分に確保するという観点からは、樹脂層90の遠位端の一部が縮径領域95に入り込でいる態様が好ましく、当該遠位端の全てが縮径領域95に入り込でいる態様がより好ましい。   Here, the vicinity of the proximal portion of the fixing portion 94 means a point closer to the fixing portion 94 than at least a half point between the proximal end of the fixing portion 94 and the base end surface 73, and the reduced diameter region shown in FIG. It includes either a point distal to the proximal end of 95 or a point proximal. From the viewpoint of ensuring a sufficient axial length distance of the resin layer 90, a mode in which a part of the distal end of the resin layer 90 enters the reduced diameter region 95 is preferable, and all the distal ends are contracted. A mode of entering the diameter region 95 is more preferable.

固定部94は、針体10の外表面と接続部材70の内表面とを直接または間接に接合し、互いの位置関係を固定する。固定部94の形成手段は特に限定されない。
たとえば、接続部材70が樹脂部材よりなる場合には、針体10が挿通する接続部材70の外表面周方向に熱収縮部材を配置し、当該熱収縮部材を加熱して接続部材70を径方向の内向きに締め付けることにより固定部94を形成することができる。接続部材70が金属材料よりなる場合には、針体10が挿通する接続部材70の所定の領域を周方向に加熱して熱溶融し針体10と接続部材70とを接合させ固定部94を形成してもよい。または接続部材70が金属材料よりなる場合には、針体10が挿通する接続部材70をかしめて針体10と接続部材70とを物理的に当接させ、固定部94を形成してもよい。接続部材70をかしめたことにより、接続部材70の外表面にかしめ跡である凹部96が形成されている。
The fixing portion 94 directly or indirectly joins the outer surface of the needle body 10 and the inner surface of the connection member 70 to fix the positional relationship with each other. The means for forming the fixing portion 94 is not particularly limited.
For example, when the connecting member 70 is made of a resin member, a heat shrink member is arranged in the circumferential direction of the outer surface of the connecting member 70 through which the needle body 10 is inserted, and the heat shrink member is heated to make the connecting member 70 radial. The fixing portion 94 can be formed by tightening inward. When the connecting member 70 is made of a metal material, a predetermined region of the connecting member 70 through which the needle body 10 is inserted is heated in the circumferential direction to thermally melt the needle body 10 and the connecting member 70, thereby fixing the fixing portion 94. It may be formed. Alternatively, when the connection member 70 is made of a metal material, the fixing member 94 may be formed by caulking the connection member 70 through which the needle body 10 is inserted to physically contact the needle body 10 and the connection member 70. . By caulking the connection member 70, a recess 96 that is a caulking trace is formed on the outer surface of the connection member 70.

固定部94における針体と接続部材との固定が、かしめなどの物理的手段でなされる場合には、固定部94における水密性が充分でない場合がある。たとえば接続部材70の外表面において周方向の2か所から4か所程度かしめることによって内部に挿通する針体10と接続部材70とを固定する固定部94を形成することができる。ただしかかる場合には、固定部94の周方向において、針体10と接続部材70とが密に接合する箇所と、空隙と、が存在しうる。そのため、固定部94が、かしめなどの物理的手段で形成された内視鏡用注射針200の態様では、特に樹脂層90を設けることは本発明の所期の課題を解決するために有効である。   In the case where the needle body and the connection member are fixed in the fixing portion 94 by physical means such as caulking, the water tightness in the fixing portion 94 may not be sufficient. For example, it is possible to form the fixing portion 94 that fixes the needle body 10 inserted through the inside and the connecting member 70 by caulking about two to four places in the circumferential direction on the outer surface of the connecting member 70. However, in such a case, in the circumferential direction of the fixing portion 94, there may be a portion where the needle body 10 and the connection member 70 are closely joined and a gap. Therefore, in the aspect of the endoscope injection needle 200 in which the fixing portion 94 is formed by physical means such as caulking, it is particularly effective to provide the resin layer 90 in order to solve the intended problem of the present invention. is there.

縮径領域95は、固定部94、並びに固定部94の近位側および遠位側を含み、挿通孔80の径が相対的に縮径した領域である。たとえば、縮径領域95における挿通孔80の径は、図5に示すとおり、接続部材70の近位端部における挿通孔80の径よりも小さい。本実施形態における縮径領域95は、図5に示すとおり大径部72に設けられているが、図示省略する変形例として接続部本体71に設けられてもよい。内視鏡用注射針200は、大径部72の外周面をかしめることによって、大径部72の外表面に凹部が形成されている。当該凹部の凹みに連動して内表面が径方向の内向きに突出し、固定部94が形成されている。固定部94の遠位側および近位側における挿通孔80の内表面が固定部94を頂点として傾斜することによって縮径領域95が形成されている。   The reduced diameter region 95 includes the fixing portion 94 and the proximal side and the distal side of the fixing portion 94, and the diameter of the insertion hole 80 is relatively reduced. For example, the diameter of the insertion hole 80 in the reduced diameter region 95 is smaller than the diameter of the insertion hole 80 in the proximal end portion of the connection member 70 as shown in FIG. The reduced diameter region 95 in the present embodiment is provided in the large diameter portion 72 as shown in FIG. 5, but may be provided in the connection portion main body 71 as a modified example not shown. The endoscope injection needle 200 has a concave portion formed on the outer surface of the large diameter portion 72 by caulking the outer peripheral surface of the large diameter portion 72. The inner surface protrudes inward in the radial direction in conjunction with the recess of the recess, and a fixing portion 94 is formed. The inner diameter surface of the insertion hole 80 on the distal side and the proximal side of the fixed portion 94 is inclined with the fixed portion 94 as an apex to form a reduced diameter region 95.

本実施形態にかかる内視鏡用注射針200は、樹脂層90より遠位側に針体10の外表面と接続部材70の内表面とを接合する接合部97が設けられてもよい。本実施形態では、上述する固定部94を接合部97として兼用している。接合部97より遠位側において、大径部72の遠位端を含む遠位端部における内表面と、当該内表面に対向する針体10の外表面と、の間に空隙140が設けられている。   In the endoscope injection needle 200 according to the present embodiment, a joint 97 that joins the outer surface of the needle body 10 and the inner surface of the connection member 70 may be provided on the distal side of the resin layer 90. In the present embodiment, the fixing portion 94 described above is also used as the joint portion 97. A space 140 is provided between the inner surface of the distal end including the distal end of the large diameter portion 72 and the outer surface of the needle body 10 facing the inner surface on the distal side of the joint 97. ing.

接合部97は、たとえば図5に示すとおり、大径部72において設けることができるが、これに限定されず、接続部本体71に設けられてもよい。
接合部97において、針体10の外表面と接続部材70の内表面とが直接または間接に当接している。接合部97における当接の状態には、固定部94の固定の状態を包含する。また、接合部97の形成手段は、固定部94の形成手段を倣うことができる。
本実施形態の変形例として、固定部94とは異なる、図示省略する接合部97が設けられてもよく、また、固定部94を有しない態様において、接合部97のみが設けられていてもよい。
空隙140は、接合部97の遠位端から接続部材70の遠位端まで連続している。
For example, as shown in FIG. 5, the joint portion 97 can be provided in the large diameter portion 72, but is not limited thereto, and may be provided in the connection portion main body 71.
At the joint 97, the outer surface of the needle body 10 and the inner surface of the connection member 70 are in direct or indirect contact. The contact state at the joint portion 97 includes the fixed state of the fixing portion 94. Further, the means for forming the joint portion 97 can follow the means for forming the fixing portion 94.
As a modification of the present embodiment, a joint portion 97 (not shown) that is different from the fixed portion 94 may be provided, or only the joint portion 97 may be provided in a mode in which the fixed portion 94 is not provided. .
The gap 140 is continuous from the distal end of the joint 97 to the distal end of the connecting member 70.

接合部97を有する内視鏡用注射針200によれば、針体10の外表面は、基端側から樹脂層90、および接合部97を含む少なくも軸方向の2領域において接続部材70の内表面と当接する。接合部97よりも遠位側において針体10に屈曲方向の力がかかったとき、針体10は、空隙140内を動作し僅かに湾曲可能である。針体10が上述のとおり湾曲することによって当該力により針体10が損傷することを回避可能である。
また当該力により針体10が湾曲したときに、樹脂層90よりも遠位側に位置する接合部97に負荷がかかるため、樹脂層90により固定された針体10と接続部材70とが剥離することが防止される。したがって、本発明の所期の課題である針体10と接続部材70との間の水密性を維持しつつ、針体10の先端の湾曲を僅かに許容し、屈曲方向の力によって針体10が損傷することを防止する。
According to the endoscope injection needle 200 having the joint portion 97, the outer surface of the needle body 10 has at least two axial regions including the resin layer 90 and the joint portion 97 from the proximal end side of the connection member 70. Abuts the inner surface. When a force in the bending direction is applied to the needle body 10 on the distal side of the joint portion 97, the needle body 10 moves in the gap 140 and can be bent slightly. It is possible to avoid the needle body 10 from being damaged by the force due to the bending of the needle body 10 as described above.
Further, when the needle body 10 is bent by the force, a load is applied to the joint portion 97 located on the distal side of the resin layer 90, so that the needle body 10 fixed by the resin layer 90 and the connection member 70 are separated. Is prevented. Therefore, while maintaining the watertightness between the needle body 10 and the connecting member 70, which is an intended subject of the present invention, the tip of the needle body 10 is allowed to be slightly curved, and the needle body 10 is bent by a force in the bending direction. To prevent damage.

接合部97を有する内視鏡用注射針200は、たとえば図5に示すとおり、挿通孔80の遠位側開口が、近位側から遠位側に向かって拡径していてもよい。
即ち、空隙140の遠位端部は、近位側から遠位側に向かって連続的に拡径し、接続部材70の遠位端において開口している。かかる構成によれば、針体10の先端をより大きく湾曲させることができるため、上述する針体10の損傷の防止効果が大きい。
In the endoscope injection needle 200 having the joint portion 97, for example, as shown in FIG. 5, the distal opening of the insertion hole 80 may have a diameter increasing from the proximal side toward the distal side.
That is, the distal end portion of the gap 140 continuously increases in diameter from the proximal side toward the distal side, and opens at the distal end of the connection member 70. According to such a configuration, the tip of the needle body 10 can be bent more greatly, and thus the above-described damage prevention effect of the needle body 10 is great.

図5に図示するとおり、第二実施形態における大径部72の外径は、内管チューブ20の外径と略同等である。また、大径部72の軸長は、接続部本体71と略同等あるいは、これより長い。たとえば、当該軸長を、突出状態にあるとき、当接部31と、大径部72の先端とを当接させることができる。本発明における接続部材70は、第一実施形態および第二実施形態に具体的に示す態様に限定されず、たとえば、図示省略するが、接続部材70は、大径部72を有さず実質的に内径も外径も略均一な筒状体であってもよい。   As illustrated in FIG. 5, the outer diameter of the large diameter portion 72 in the second embodiment is substantially equal to the outer diameter of the inner tube 20. Further, the axial length of the large diameter portion 72 is substantially equal to or longer than the connection portion main body 71. For example, when the shaft length is in the protruding state, the contact portion 31 and the tip of the large diameter portion 72 can be contacted. The connection member 70 in the present invention is not limited to the embodiment specifically shown in the first embodiment and the second embodiment. For example, the connection member 70 does not have the large-diameter portion 72 and is substantially not illustrated. Alternatively, it may be a cylindrical body having a substantially uniform inner diameter and outer diameter.

<Third embodiment>
Next, a method for manufacturing an endoscope injection needle (hereinafter also simply referred to as “the present manufacturing method”) according to a third embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. This manufacturing method will be described taking a method of manufacturing the endoscope injection needle 200 as an example.
FIG. 6 is an explanatory view illustrating a resin filling step in the method for manufacturing an endoscope injection needle according to the third embodiment of the present invention.
FIG. 7 is an explanatory view illustrating a resin layer forming step in the method for manufacturing an endoscope injection needle according to the third embodiment of the present invention.

本製造方法は、内管チューブ20と、針体10と、接続部材70とを有する内視鏡用注射針を製造する方法である。
内管チューブ20は、液体を注入するためチューブであり、針体10は、内管チューブ20の先端に設けられる。接続部材70は、軸方向に貫通し針体10が挿通する挿通孔80を有し、内管チューブ20の内表面と針体10との外表面との間に配置され針体10と内管チューブ20とを接続する。
たとえば、接続部本体71および大径部72を備える接続部材70を用いる場合、後述する型枠部材300の内径は、大径部72の外径と略同等である。
This manufacturing method is a method of manufacturing an endoscope injection needle having the inner tube 20, the needle body 10, and the connection member 70.
The inner tube 20 is a tube for injecting liquid, and the needle body 10 is provided at the tip of the inner tube 20. The connecting member 70 has an insertion hole 80 through which the needle body 10 is inserted in the axial direction, and is disposed between the inner surface of the inner tube tube 20 and the outer surface of the needle body 10. The tube 20 is connected.
For example, when the connection member 70 including the connection portion main body 71 and the large diameter portion 72 is used, the inner diameter of the mold member 300 described later is substantially equal to the outer diameter of the large diameter portion 72.

本製造方法は、樹脂充填工程と、樹脂層形成工程とを含む。
樹脂充填工程は、挿通孔80に針体10を挿通するとともに、接続部材70の外径と略等しい内径を有する筒状体である型枠部材300を接続部材70の基端面73よりも基端側に型枠部材300の基端が位置するよう接続部材70(大径部72)に外嵌する。加えて樹脂充填工程は、接続部材70の基端面73および基端面73から突出する針体10を樹脂部材120で埋め込むよう、型枠部材300に樹脂部材120を流し込む。
樹脂層形成工程は、樹脂充填工程後に実施される。樹脂層形成工程は、型枠部材300の内表面と接続部材70(接続部本体71)の外表面との間に内管チューブ20の先端を嵌め込み、型枠部材300に流し込まれた樹脂部材120を先端側に押し込む工程を含む。当該工程を実施することによって、接続部材70の基端面73から、針体10の外表面と接続部材70の内表面との間に亘り樹脂部材120を含浸させて、針体10と接続部材70とを接合する樹脂層90を形成する。
This manufacturing method includes a resin filling step and a resin layer forming step.
In the resin filling step, the needle body 10 is inserted into the insertion hole 80, and the mold member 300, which is a cylindrical body having an inner diameter substantially equal to the outer diameter of the connection member 70, is more proximal than the base end surface 73 of the connection member 70. The base end of the formwork member 300 is positioned on the side so as to be fitted on the connecting member 70 (large diameter portion 72). In addition, in the resin filling step, the resin member 120 is poured into the mold member 300 so that the base member 73 protruding from the base end surface 73 and the needle body 10 protruding from the base end surface 73 is embedded with the resin member 120.
The resin layer forming step is performed after the resin filling step. In the resin layer forming step, the tip of the inner tube 20 is fitted between the inner surface of the mold member 300 and the outer surface of the connection member 70 (connector body 71), and the resin member 120 poured into the mold member 300 is used. A step of pushing the tip into the tip side. By carrying out this process, the resin member 120 is impregnated from the base end face 73 of the connecting member 70 to the outer surface of the needle body 10 and the inner surface of the connecting member 70, so that the needle body 10 and the connecting member 70. A resin layer 90 is formed.

本製造方法の樹脂充填工程によれば、型枠部材300を設けることにより、針体10の外表面に樹脂部材120を塗布することを要さず、樹脂部材120を針体10の周囲に容易に配置することができる。また型枠部材300の軸長を調整することにより、針体10の外表面に樹脂部材120を塗布するよりも多い量の樹脂部材120を針体10の周囲に配置することが容易である。
樹脂層形成工程によれば、型枠部材300をガイドとして、接続部材70(接続部本体71)に内管チューブ20を外嵌することができる。加えて、外嵌時における内管チューブ20の嵌入の圧力により樹脂部材120を先端方向に押し圧することによって、針体10と接続部材70との間の隙間に樹脂部材120を充填することができる。
上述する樹脂充填工程および樹脂層形成工程を備える本製造方法によれば、針体10の外表面と接続部材70の内表面の僅かな隙間に、容易に樹脂層90を形成することができる。樹脂層90を形成することによって針体10と接続部材70とを接着により接合し、水密性が良好な内視鏡用注射針200を製造することができる。
According to the resin filling process of this manufacturing method, by providing the mold member 300, it is not necessary to apply the resin member 120 to the outer surface of the needle body 10, and the resin member 120 can be easily placed around the needle body 10. Can be arranged. Further, by adjusting the axial length of the mold member 300, it is easy to dispose a larger amount of the resin member 120 around the needle body 10 than when the resin member 120 is applied to the outer surface of the needle body 10.
According to the resin layer forming step, the inner tube 20 can be externally fitted to the connection member 70 (connection portion main body 71) using the formwork member 300 as a guide. In addition, the resin member 120 can be filled in the gap between the needle body 10 and the connecting member 70 by pressing the resin member 120 in the distal direction by the pressure of the insertion of the inner tube 20 at the time of external fitting. .
According to this manufacturing method including the resin filling step and the resin layer forming step described above, the resin layer 90 can be easily formed in a slight gap between the outer surface of the needle body 10 and the inner surface of the connection member 70. By forming the resin layer 90, the needle body 10 and the connecting member 70 can be bonded together to manufacture the endoscope injection needle 200 with good water tightness.

以下に内視鏡用注射針200の形成を例に本製造方法の詳細について説明する。上述する本製造方法において実施される工程に加え、任意で実施してよいその他の工程についても併せて説明する。   The details of this manufacturing method will be described below by taking the formation of the endoscope injection needle 200 as an example. In addition to the steps performed in the present manufacturing method described above, other steps that may optionally be performed will also be described.

針体10を接続部材70における挿通孔80に挿通し、接続部材70の先端より所定の長さだけ針体10の先端領域を突出させる。かかる状態で、接続部材70の外表面から2以上の箇所をかしめ、針体10と接続部材70とを接合させて固定する固定部94を形成する。かしめられることにより、挿通孔80は、固定部94において径方向の内方向に締め付けられる。またかしめ跡である凹部96が接続部材70の外表面に形成される。そのため、固定部94の遠位側および近位側は、挿通孔80の基端領域の径に対し縮径しており縮径領域95をなす。
挿通孔80には、予め、接続部材70の基端から先端に向けて拡径するテーパー部150が設けられている。固定部94よりも先端側における縮径領域95からテーパー部150は連続し、空隙140をなす。
The needle body 10 is inserted into the insertion hole 80 in the connection member 70, and the distal end region of the needle body 10 is projected from the distal end of the connection member 70 by a predetermined length. In such a state, two or more locations are caulked from the outer surface of the connection member 70 to form a fixing portion 94 that joins and fixes the needle body 10 and the connection member 70. By caulking, the insertion hole 80 is tightened inward in the radial direction at the fixing portion 94. A concave portion 96 that is a caulking trace is formed on the outer surface of the connection member 70. Therefore, the distal side and the proximal side of the fixing portion 94 are reduced in diameter relative to the diameter of the proximal end region of the insertion hole 80 to form a reduced diameter region 95.
The insertion hole 80 is previously provided with a tapered portion 150 whose diameter increases from the proximal end to the distal end of the connection member 70. The tapered portion 150 continues from the reduced diameter region 95 on the distal end side with respect to the fixed portion 94, and forms a gap 140.

接続部材70の基端面73よりも基端側に型枠部材300の基端が位置するよう、型枠部材300を接続部材70に外嵌する。
具体的には、図6に示すとおり、接続部材70の大径部72に型枠部材300を外嵌する。型枠部材300は筒状の内表面および外表面を有する筒状体であって、内部に連通する孔の径は略均一である。型枠部材の内径は、接続部材70の外径と略等しい。本実施形態では、具体的には型枠部材300の内径は、大径部72の外径と略同等であり、型枠部材300の内表面と接続部本体71の外表面との間には有意な間隙が確保されている。
本実施形態は、接続部本体71に対向する領域において内外に連通する通気孔160が設けられた型枠部材300を用いるとよい。通気孔160は、たとえば、接続部本体71に対向する領域であって先端側に形成されていることが好ましい。
型枠部材300は、金属パイプや、引裂き可能なチューブなどを用いることができる。
The formwork member 300 is externally fitted to the connection member 70 so that the base end of the formwork member 300 is located on the base end side of the base end surface 73 of the connection member 70.
Specifically, as shown in FIG. 6, the mold member 300 is fitted on the large diameter portion 72 of the connection member 70. The mold member 300 is a cylindrical body having a cylindrical inner surface and an outer surface, and the diameters of the holes communicating with the interior are substantially uniform. The inner diameter of the mold member is substantially equal to the outer diameter of the connection member 70. In the present embodiment, specifically, the inner diameter of the mold member 300 is substantially equal to the outer diameter of the large-diameter portion 72, and between the inner surface of the mold member 300 and the outer surface of the connection portion main body 71. A significant gap is secured.
In the present embodiment, it is preferable to use a formwork member 300 provided with a vent hole 160 communicating with the inside and the outside in a region facing the connection portion main body 71. For example, the vent hole 160 is preferably formed on the distal end side in a region facing the connection portion main body 71.
The formwork member 300 can be a metal pipe, a tearable tube, or the like.

型枠部材300の内表面と、段差面74と、接続部本体71の外表面と、により囲まれた領域に樹脂部材120を充填する樹脂充填工程を実施する。基端面73を覆う樹脂層90を確実に形成する観点から、本工程において、接続部材70の基端面73よりも基端側(図6紙面上側)まで樹脂部材120で流し込むことが好ましい。本実施形態において、上述のとおり充填される樹脂部材120は、基端面73を覆い、針体10の基端側開口に到達しないよう充填量が調整されている。   A resin filling step of filling the resin member 120 into a region surrounded by the inner surface of the mold member 300, the stepped surface 74, and the outer surface of the connection portion main body 71 is performed. From the viewpoint of reliably forming the resin layer 90 covering the base end surface 73, it is preferable that the resin member 120 is poured from the base end surface 73 of the connection member 70 to the base end side (upper side in FIG. 6) in this step. In the present embodiment, the resin member 120 filled as described above covers the proximal end surface 73 and the filling amount is adjusted so as not to reach the proximal end side opening of the needle body 10.

本製造方法は、樹脂充填部110を形成することを含んでもよい。
即ち、予め、針体10において、接続部材70の基端よりも近位側まで延在させてなる近位側延在部12の外表面と、型枠部材300の内表面との間を埋めるよう充填する。
そして、後述する樹脂層形成工程において、内管チューブ20の内表面と近位側延在部12の外表面との間に樹脂充填部110を形成する。
これにより、樹脂層90と近位側延在部12とを同じ工程において形成することができる。
The manufacturing method may include forming the resin filling portion 110.
That is, in the needle body 10, the space between the outer surface of the proximal extending portion 12 that extends to the proximal side from the proximal end of the connection member 70 and the inner surface of the mold member 300 are filled in advance. Fill like so.
And in the resin layer formation process mentioned later, the resin filling part 110 is formed between the inner surface of the inner tube 20 and the outer surface of the proximal side extension part 12. FIG.
Thereby, the resin layer 90 and the proximal side extension part 12 can be formed in the same process.

以上のとおり樹脂充填工程を実施した後、樹脂層形成工程を行う。
内管チューブ20を準備し、図7に示すとおり、内管チューブ20の先端を型枠部材300の内表面と接続部材70(接続部本体71)の外表面との間にはめ込む。内管チューブ20の肉厚は、型枠部材300の内表面と接続部本体71の外表面との間隙より僅かに小さい程度である。内管チューブ20を当該間隙に嵌め込むとともに、樹脂部材120を接続部材70の先端方向に押し込み、針体10の外表面と接続部材70の内表面との間に形成された間隙に樹脂部材120を含浸させて樹脂層90を形成する。
先端方向に押し込まれた内管チューブ20の先端面75が、段差面74に直接または間接に当接するため、押し込み作業の終了を容易に知ることができる。
After performing the resin filling step as described above, the resin layer forming step is performed.
The inner tube 20 is prepared, and as shown in FIG. 7, the tip of the inner tube 20 is fitted between the inner surface of the mold member 300 and the outer surface of the connecting member 70 (connecting portion main body 71). The thickness of the inner tube 20 is slightly smaller than the gap between the inner surface of the mold member 300 and the outer surface of the connection portion main body 71. The inner tube tube 20 is fitted into the gap, and the resin member 120 is pushed toward the distal end of the connection member 70, and the resin member 120 is inserted into the gap formed between the outer surface of the needle body 10 and the inner surface of the connection member 70. Is impregnated to form the resin layer 90.
Since the distal end surface 75 of the inner tube 20 pushed in the distal direction directly or indirectly contacts the stepped surface 74, the end of the pushing operation can be easily known.

また図7に示すとおり、嵌入された内管チューブ20の内表面と、接続部材70(接続部本体71)の外表面との間にも間隙を設け、当該間隙にも樹脂部材120を含浸させてもよい。これにより、内管チューブ20と接続部材70とを接合する第三樹脂層98を形成することができる。   Further, as shown in FIG. 7, a gap is also provided between the inner surface of the inserted inner tube 20 and the outer surface of the connecting member 70 (connecting portion main body 71), and the resin member 120 is impregnated in the gap. May be. Thereby, the 3rd resin layer 98 which joins the inner tube 20 and the connection member 70 can be formed.

内管チューブ20により接続部材70の先端側に押しやられた樹脂部材120を段差面74に到達させることにより、先端面75と段差面74とを接合する第二樹脂層92を形成してもよい。
本製造方法では、第三樹脂層98と連続する第二樹脂層92を形成している。本製造方法の変形例として、第三樹脂層98の形成を省略し、第二樹脂層92のみを製造してもよい。
The second resin layer 92 that joins the tip surface 75 and the step surface 74 may be formed by causing the resin member 120 pushed to the tip side of the connection member 70 by the inner tube 20 to reach the step surface 74. .
In this manufacturing method, the second resin layer 92 continuous with the third resin layer 98 is formed. As a modification of the manufacturing method, the formation of the third resin layer 98 may be omitted and only the second resin layer 92 may be manufactured.

本製造方法において、型枠部材300に設けられた通気孔160は、たとえば図7に示すとおり、段差面74に沿って設けられるとよい。内管チューブ20によって先端方向に樹脂部材120が押し込まれるとき、樹脂部材120よりも先端側に存在する空気を通気孔160から放出することができるため、樹脂部材120を所望の領域まで含浸させ易い。   In the present manufacturing method, the vent hole 160 provided in the mold member 300 is preferably provided along the step surface 74 as shown in FIG. When the resin member 120 is pushed in the distal direction by the inner tube 20, the air present on the distal side of the resin member 120 can be released from the vent hole 160, so that the resin member 120 can be easily impregnated to a desired region. .

上述する樹脂層形成工程によれば、樹脂層90とともに第二樹脂層92または第三樹脂層98も同時に形成することができる。
ただし、第二樹脂層92および第三樹脂層98の形成方法はこれに限定されない。たとえば本実施形態の変形例として、第二樹脂層は、予め段差面74または先端面75に樹脂部材120を塗布し、その後に樹脂層形成工程を実施してもよい。あるいは、型枠部材300の内表面と、接続部材70(接続部本体71)の外表面との距離と、内管チューブ20の肉厚とを第三樹脂層98が形成されない程度に実質的に同一とし、先端に押し込められる樹脂部材120により第二樹脂層92のみを形成してもよい。
According to the resin layer forming step described above, the second resin layer 92 or the third resin layer 98 can be formed simultaneously with the resin layer 90.
However, the formation method of the 2nd resin layer 92 and the 3rd resin layer 98 is not limited to this. For example, as a modification of the present embodiment, the second resin layer may be preliminarily coated with the resin member 120 on the stepped surface 74 or the tip surface 75, and then the resin layer forming step may be performed. Alternatively, the distance between the inner surface of the mold member 300 and the outer surface of the connection member 70 (connection portion main body 71) and the thickness of the inner tube tube 20 are substantially reduced to the extent that the third resin layer 98 is not formed. Only the second resin layer 92 may be formed of the same resin member 120 that is pushed into the tip.

樹脂層形成工程を実施した後、型枠部材300を取り外すとともに、適宜、余分な樹脂部材120を除去する。
さらに外管チューブ30を内管チューブ20に外嵌することにより内視鏡用注射針200を製造することができる。
After performing the resin layer forming step, the mold member 300 is removed, and the excess resin member 120 is removed as appropriate.
Furthermore, the endoscope injection needle 200 can be manufactured by fitting the outer tube 30 to the inner tube 20.
