- the wiring connecting the power source 30 and the counter electrode plate 40 may be at ground potential.
- the resistance R2A of the treated part 2A is large and has a high density. For this reason, while the applied power hardly affects the body 2 to be treated, Joule heat is generated in the treatment section 2A in contact with the treatment section 22, and the treatment section 2A is treated ( Excised / hemostatic).
- the efficiency of wireless transmission by capacitive coupling is proportional to the magnitude of capacitive coupling between the power transmission electrode 18 and the power reception electrode 28, that is, the capacitance CA of the capacitor C 1 configured by the power transmission electrode 18 and the power reception electrode 28.

- the parasitic capacitance of the circuit is larger than the capacitance related to power transmission / reception, much of the power supply does not reach the treatment section.
- the treatment unit consumes more power input from the power transmission unit to the power reception unit, the transmission efficiency becomes higher.
- the load of the treatment section that is, the resistance is larger than various resistance components of the circuit.

- the power receiving electrode 28 shown in FIG. 3 is short in length, but may be an electrode having substantially the same length as the length of the insertion portion 21B, for example.
- the power transmission electrode 18 and the power reception electrode 28 may be disposed at a position where the capacitive coupling is strongly performed during the operation of the treatment section 22.
- positioned inside the flexible soft part 11C need to have flexibility.
- a capacitor C1 having a short inter-electrode distance g, a large counter electrode area A, and a large capacitance CA can be configured.
- the length D of the channel 14 of the endoscope 10 is as long as 100 cm or more, but most of the length D is disposed inside the flexible flexible portion 11C.
- the lengths of the power transmission electrode 18 and the power reception electrode 28 are set according to the length of the insertion portion 11. Since it can be long, the efficiency of wireless power transmission is high.
- the capacitor C1 is composed of concentric counter electrodes, even if the treatment instrument 20 rotates about the longitudinal direction in the channel 14, the power transmitting electrode 18 and the power receiving electrode 28 are stably capacitively coupled. For this reason, the surgeon can perform the insertion operation without worrying about the rotation of the treatment instrument 20.
- the power transmission electrode 18 is made of a cylindrical metal laid so as to cover the outer periphery of the channel 14.
- the power transmission electrode 18 can be produced by forming a metal film such as copper on the outer peripheral surface of the channel 14 that is a flexible tube by vapor deposition or plating.

- the same treatment instrument 20 can be used even with a plurality of endoscopes having different channel lengths D.
- the arrangement position of the power transmission electrode 18 is set with reference to the opening 14B. That is, it is only necessary that the power transmission electrode 18 of the endoscope is disposed at a predetermined distance D1 from the opening 14B. In this case, an endoscope having a long channel length D has a longer distance D2 from the insertion opening 14A to the power transmission electrode 18 than an endoscope having a short channel length D.
- each power transmission electrode 18 is disposed at a predetermined distance D1 from the opening 14B and a treatment tool 20
- the plurality of endoscopes are treatment tools. 20 can be efficiently wirelessly fed.
- a plurality of power receiving units 29 are arranged at positions where one endoscope and the AC electric field generated by the power transmitting unit 19 can be received most efficiently in a state where each endoscope is inserted into the channel 14 to the operating position. Needless to say, the endoscope system including the treatment tool has the same effect.
- an endoscope side circuit including a power supply 30 and a power transmission unit 19, a power reception unit 29 and a treatment unit 22, and a load unit that consumes power. There is no physical contact via a conductor with a treatment instrument side circuit that applies a current to a certain living tissue LT.
- the power reception unit 29 is capacitively coupled to a non-radiating AC electric field generated in the space near the power transmission unit 19. Electric power is supplied to the treatment unit 22 of the treatment tool 20 through the capacitively coupled power receiving unit 29.
- the treatment tool 20 of the endoscope system 1 is easy to handle and has good operability because there is no wiring (cable) connected to the power supply 30. Furthermore, since the power transmission unit 19 is disposed inside the endoscope 10, the generated electromagnetic field is difficult to leak to the outside of the endoscope 10, so that the influence of the leaked electromagnetic field on surrounding devices and the like is small. Moreover, since the distance between the living body that is the treatment target and the power transmission / reception unit is secured, the influence of heat generation is small.
- the cylindrical power receiving electrode 28 is coaxial with the cylindrical power transmitting electrode 18 and has the largest counter electrode area among the counter electrodes of the same size, so that the capacitance C of the capacitor is large. Furthermore, since the power receiving electrode 28 and the power transmitting electrode 18 can be disposed over the entire length of the insertion portion 11 of the flexible endoscope 10, it is easy to further increase the capacity.
- the relative positional relationship between the power transmission unit 19 and the power reception unit 29 is defined by disposing the power transmission unit 19 inside the endoscope 10, a strong capacitive coupling state between the power transmission unit 19 and the power reception unit 29. That is, since the state where the power transmission efficiency is high can be stably maintained, the energy saving property is also excellent.
- the switch 31 is used for ON / OFF control of the power output to the treatment instrument 20.
- the switch 31 is illustrated as a foot switch, but the switch may be disposed on the power supply 30, the operation unit 12 of the endoscope 10, or the operation unit 21 ⁇ / b> C of the treatment instrument 20.
- a switch connected to the power supply 30 or a switch disposed in the power supply 30 controls ON / OFF of the output of the power supply 30.
- the switch disposed in the operation unit 12 or the operation unit 21 ⁇ / b> C performs power ON / OFF control with an internal circuit of the power transmission unit 19 or the power reception unit 29. Note that the same effect as the ON / OFF control can be obtained by changing the power transmission / reception efficiency greatly by increasing / decreasing the Q value of the power transmission / reception circuit instead of the ON / OFF control in the power transmission / reception circuit. However, when the amount of power is large, the Q value reduction control may cause problems such as heat generation.
- the switch may be a button switch, a touch gesture-compatible operation unit, or a voice recognition operation unit.

図6に示したように、チャンネル14の内径φ(14)は、処置具20の挿入部21Bが、挿通可能なように、挿入部21Bの外径φ(20)よりも大きい。例えばφ(14)=2.8mmであり、φ(20)=2.6mmである。チャンネル14の肉厚を0とみなすと、キャパシタC1の電極間距離gは、互いに同軸で偏心がない場合、0.1mmと非常に短い。また、対向電極面積Aは、短い方の電極の長さLに比例する。
次に第1実施形態の変形例1~6の内視鏡システム1A~1G等について説明する。内視鏡システム1A~1G等は、すでに説明した内視鏡システム1と同じ構成を具備し、類似しているので、同じ機能の構成要素には同じ符号を付し説明は省略する。
