如图 3所示,本实施例中超声治疗头与实施例 2的区别在于: 超声传导介质 20采用液体, 且散热单元的结构也不相同。
本实施例中, 所述超声传导介质 20采用液态透声材料, 比如 可以为水、 冷冻液或油。
本实施例中, 所述散热单元包括超声传导介质提供机构 (图 3中未示出)、 以及连接在所述超声传导介质提供机构与密封腔之 间的进液管 51和回液管 52。 其中, 超声波发射单元 30中部开设 有穿孔 31 , 而穿孔 31由密封塞 91封堵, 密封塞 91上开有孔路, 所述进液管 51和回液管 52具体是穿过所述密封塞 91上的孔路以 及超声波发射单元 30上的穿孔 31从而将超声传导介质提供机构 与密封腔连通, 使得进液管 51和回液管 52在超声传导介质提供 机构与密封腔之间能够循环流动, 以将超声波发射单元 30工作时 产生的热量带走。
本实施例中超声治疗头的其他结构均与实施例 2相同, 这里 不再赘述。 可以理解的是, 以上实施方式仅仅是为了说明本发明的原理 而采用的示例性实施方式, 然而本发明并不局限于此。 对于本领 域内的普通技术人员而言, 在不脱离本发明的精神和实质的情况 下, 可以做出各种变型和改进, 这些变型和改进也视为本发明的 保护范围。
