Description

内視鏡用処置具Treatment tool for endoscope
 本発明は、内視鏡を利用して、体外における操作により体内組織に対して処置を行うための内視鏡用処置具に関する。 The present invention relates to a treatment tool for endoscope for treating a body tissue by an operation outside the body using an endoscope.
 内視鏡用処置具の一つとしてのクリップ装置は、内視鏡の処置具案内管に通されるシースの先端に連結された医療用クリップを、シースの後端に取り付けられた操作部からの操作により、止血やマーキング等のために体内組織を把持した状態で留置するために用いられる装置である。 The clip device as one of the endoscope treatment tools comprises a medical clip connected to the distal end of the sheath that is passed through the treatment tool guide tube of the endoscope from the operation unit attached to the rear end of the sheath The device is used for indwelling in a state in which internal tissue is held for hemostasis, marking, etc.
 このようなクリップ装置としては、シースに挿通された駆動ワイヤの遠位端に、互いに略V字状に配置された一対のアーム部とこれらの基端部側を連結するU字状部を有し、シースを駆動ワイヤに対して近位端側にスライドさせることにより、シースの遠位端から突出して自己の弾性により開脚し、遠位端側にスライドさせることにより、シースの遠位端内に埋没して閉脚する連結フック(開閉部)を取り付けたものが知られている(たとえば、特許文献1参照)。 As such a clip device, at the distal end of the drive wire inserted into the sheath, there are a pair of arm portions arranged in a substantially V-shape with each other and a U-shaped portion connecting these proximal end sides. And by sliding the sheath to the proximal end side with respect to the drive wire, it projects from the distal end of the sheath and unfolds by its own elasticity, and by sliding it to the distal end side, the distal end of the sheath There is known one in which a connection hook (opening / closing portion) which is embedded in and closed off is attached (for example, see Patent Document 1).
 駆動ワイヤに対する連結フックの姿勢に関する自由度を高めて、変形や破損等を減少させつつ、処置を円滑に行えるようにするため、特許文献1に記載のものでは、駆動ワイヤの遠位端に円環部を設け、連結フックの基端部のU字状部を該円環部に通すことで、連結フックを駆動ワイヤに対して首振り可能としている。 In order to facilitate the treatment while increasing the degree of freedom regarding the attitude of the connection hook with respect to the drive wire, and reducing deformation, breakage and the like, the one described in Patent Document 1 has a circle at the distal end of the drive wire. The connection hook is made swingable relative to the drive wire by providing a ring and passing the U-shaped part at the proximal end of the connection hook through the ring part.
国際公開第2015/151629号WO 2015/151629
 特許文献1に記載のクリップ装置において、駆動ワイヤの遠位端の円環部は、シースの駆動ワイヤに対するスライドによらず、シースの遠位端部の内側に存在するように設定されているため、通常は、連結フックが該円環部から抜けてしまうことはない。しかしながら、クリップ装置の洗浄や収納等のため、駆動ワイヤおよびシースを含むシース部を適宜な径で複数回巻回した場合には、駆動ワイヤとシースとの巻回時の内外径差により、駆動ワイヤの遠位端の円環部がシースの遠位端から外側に突出してしまい、連結フックが該円環部から抜けて脱落してしまう場合があることが判ってきた。 In the clip device described in Patent Document 1, the annular portion at the distal end of the drive wire is set to be present inside the distal end of the sheath, not by sliding the sheath against the drive wire. Usually, the connecting hook does not come off the ring part. However, if the sheath portion including the drive wire and the sheath is wound multiple times with an appropriate diameter for cleaning and storage of the clip device, the drive is performed due to the difference in inner and outer diameters during winding of the drive wire and the sheath. It has been found that the annulus at the distal end of the wire may protrude outwardly from the distal end of the sheath, and the connecting hook may fall out of the annulus.
 本発明は、このような点に鑑みてなされたものであり、開閉部の脱落を確実に防止することができる内視鏡用処置具を提供することを目的とする。 This invention is made in view of such a point, and an object of this invention is to provide the treatment tool for endoscopes which can prevent drop-off | omission of an opening-and-closing part reliably.

 ただし、本発明はクリップ装置に限定されることはなく、その先端に行くにしたがって互いに略V字状に開脚するように配置された一対のアーム部を有する弾性体からなり、シースを駆動ワイヤに対して近位端側にスライドさせることにより、シースの遠位端から突出して自己の弾性により開脚し、シースを駆動ワイヤに対して遠位端側にスライドさせることにより、シースの遠位端内に埋没して閉脚する開閉部を備える内視鏡用処置具に広く適用することができる。 However, the present invention is not limited to the clip device, and it is composed of an elastic body having a pair of arm portions disposed so as to open in a substantially V shape toward each other as it goes to the tip, and the sheath By sliding it toward the proximal end, it projects from the distal end of the sheath and opens itself by its own elasticity, and by sliding the sheath distally with respect to the drive wire, the distal end of the sheath The present invention can be widely applied to an endoscope treatment tool having an opening and closing portion which is buried and closed in the end.
 より具体的には、たとえば、留置スネアを連結して体内組織を結紮させる連結フックを該開閉部として備えるスネア結紮装置、体内組織を把持する鉗子を該開閉部として備える鉗子装置、開閉する高周波電極を該開閉部として備えるバイポーラ型高周波装置、体内組織の欠損部等を縫合している結紮糸を開閉部で把持してシース内に引き込むことで該結紮糸を切断する結紮糸切断具等に適用することができる。 More specifically, for example, a snare ligation apparatus including a connection hook for connecting an indwelling snare to ligate a body tissue as the opening and closing part, a forceps device including a forceps for gripping an inside tissue as the opening and closing part, a high frequency electrode opening and closing Applied to a bipolar high-frequency device including the opening / closing portion, a ligature cutting device etc. that cuts the ligature by grasping the ligature that sutures a defect portion of internal tissue and the like by the opening / closing portion and pulling it into the sheath. can do.
 まず、図1および図2を参照する。クリップ装置1は、連結フック(開閉部)11、インナーシース(シース)12、駆動ワイヤ13、アウターシース14、補強コイル15、第1スライダ部16、ベース部17、および第2スライダ部(操作部)18を概略備えて構成されている。 First, FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 will be referred to. The clip device 1 includes a connection hook (opening and closing unit) 11, an inner sheath (sheath) 12, a drive wire 13, an outer sheath 14, a reinforcing coil 15, a first slider 16, a base 17, and a second slider (operation unit ) Is roughly configured.
 チューブ状のアウターシース14には、同じくチューブ状のインナーシース12が挿通されており、インナーシース12には駆動ワイヤ13が挿通されている。インナーシース12はアウターシース14内で摺動(スライド)可能となっており、駆動ワイヤ13はインナーシース12内で摺動(スライド)可能となっている。 The tube-shaped inner sheath 12 is inserted through the tube-shaped outer sheath 14, and the drive wire 13 is inserted through the inner sheath 12. The inner sheath 12 is slidable (slidable) in the outer sheath 14, and the drive wire 13 is slidable (slidable) in the inner sheath 12.
 アウターシース14は可撓性を有する中空チューブからなり、本実施形態ではコイルチューブを用いている。コイルチューブとしては、金属(ステンレス鋼)等からなる長尺平板を螺旋状に巻回してなる平線コイルチューブを用いることができる。ただし、丸線コイルチューブまたは内面平コイルチューブを用いてもよい。 The outer sheath 14 is formed of a flexible hollow tube, and in the present embodiment, a coiled tube is used. As the coil tube, a flat wire coil tube formed by spirally winding a long flat plate made of metal (stainless steel) or the like can be used. However, a round coiled tube or an inner flat coiled tube may be used.
 インナーシース12は可撓性を有する中空チューブからなり、本実施形態ではワイヤチューブを用いている。ワイヤチューブは、たとえば金属(ステンレス鋼)等からなる複数本のワイヤ(ケーブル)を中空となるように螺旋状に撚ってなる中空撚り線からなるチューブである。なお、インナーシース12としては、主としてワイヤチューブを用い、その先端側の一部のみをコイルチューブとしたものを用いてもよい。 The inner sheath 12 is made of a flexible hollow tube, and in the present embodiment, a wire tube is used. A wire tube is a tube which consists of a hollow stranded wire spirally twisted so that a plurality of wires (cables) which consist of metal (stainless steel) etc. may become hollow, for example. As the inner sheath 12, a wire tube may be mainly used, and only a part of the distal end side may be a coil tube.
 駆動ワイヤ13は可撓性を有するワイヤからなり、本実施形態ではワイヤロープを用いている。ワイヤロープは、たとえば金属(ステンレス鋼)等からなる複数本のワイヤ(ケーブル)を螺旋状にねじってなる撚り線からなるロープである。ただし、駆動ワイヤ13としては、インナーシース12と同様なワイヤチューブを用いてもよい。 The drive wire 13 is made of a flexible wire, and in the present embodiment, a wire rope is used. The wire rope is a rope made of a stranded wire formed by helically twisting a plurality of wires (cables) made of, for example, metal (stainless steel) or the like. However, as the drive wire 13, a wire tube similar to the inner sheath 12 may be used.
 アウターシース14やインナーシース12として、このようなコイルチューブまたは撚り線からなるワイヤチューブを用いるのは、このクリップ装置1を、洗浄液を用いて超音波洗浄した場合に、チューブの内側に洗浄液が十分に浸透して内外共に良好に洗浄できるようにするためである。 The use of a wire tube made of such a coiled tube or a stranded wire as the outer sheath 14 or the inner sheath 12 is because, when the clip device 1 is ultrasonically cleaned using a cleaning solution, the cleaning solution is sufficiently inside the tube In order to be able to wash well inside and outside.
 なお、アウターシース14の巻き方向とインナーシース12の巻き方向とは、互いに逆のものを用いることが、互いの間に生じる摺動抵抗を小さくする観点から好ましい。たとえば、アウターシース14がZ巻きである場合には、インナーシース12をS巻きにする如くである。駆動ワイヤ13に撚り線からなるワイヤロープまたはワイヤチューブを用いる場合には、その巻き方向をインナーシース12の巻き方向と逆方向にすることが同様に好ましい。 In addition, it is preferable from a viewpoint of making the sliding resistance which arises between mutually reverse that the winding direction of the outer sheath 14 and the winding direction of the inner sheath 12 mutually reverse. For example, when the outer sheath 14 is Z-wound, the inner sheath 12 is S-wound. When using the wire rope or wire tube which consists of a stranded wire for the drive wire 13, it is similarly preferable to make the winding direction into the reverse direction to the winding direction of the inner sheath 12. As shown in FIG.
 クリップ装置1のシース先端に配置される連結フック11は、図5および図6に示されているように、その先端に向かって略Vの字状に配置された弾性体からなる一対のアーム部11a,11aを有し、インナーシース12との協働によって、開脚(開いた)状態と閉脚(閉じた)状態の二つの状態をとり得るようになっている。連結フック11のアーム部11a,11aの先端部には、内側(互いに相対する側)に折り曲げられることにより爪部11b,11bが形成されており、後述する医療用クリップ2の連結部21を把持して連結できるようになっている。 The connection hooks 11 disposed at the sheath distal end of the clip device 1 have a pair of arm portions made of an elastic body disposed substantially in a V-shape toward the distal end as shown in FIGS. 5 and 6 11a and 11a are provided, and by cooperation with the inner sheath 12, two states of an open leg (open) state and a closed leg (closed) state can be taken. The front end portions of the arm portions 11a and 11a of the connection hook 11 are bent inward (sides facing each other) to form claw portions 11b and 11b, and grip the connection portion 21 of the medical clip 2 described later Can be connected.
 連結フック11の基端部は、一対のアーム部11a,11aの基端部に連続して略U字状に形成されたU字状部11cとなっている。爪部11b,11bを含むアーム部11a,11aおよびU字状部11cは弾性体からなる一つの細長い板材を適宜に折り曲げる(塑性変形させる)ことにより形成することができる。特に限定されないが、連結フック11を構成する板材の板厚は0.20~0.24mm程度であり、幅は0.6mm程度である。板材としては、たとえばステンレス鋼が用いられる。 The proximal end portion of the connection hook 11 is a U-shaped portion 11c formed in a substantially U-shape continuously with the proximal end portions of the pair of arm portions 11a and 11a. The arm portions 11a and 11a including the claw portions 11b and 11b and the U-shaped portion 11c can be formed by appropriately bending (plastically deforming) one elongated plate made of an elastic body. Although not particularly limited, the plate thickness of the plate constituting the connection hook 11 is about 0.20 to 0.24 mm, and the width is about 0.6 mm. For example, stainless steel is used as the plate material.
 連結フック11のU字状部11cの基端部には、フック側環状部(第1環状部)11dが設けられている。フック側環状部11dは、本実施形態では、U字状の部材の一対の開放端をU字状部11cの基端部の外側(近位端側)の面にそれぞれ一体的に固定することにより、環状の部位としている。フック側環状部11dのU字状部11cに対する固定は、本実施形態ではレーザ溶接により行うようにしているが、接着等により行うようにしてもよい。 A hook side annular portion (first annular portion) 11 d is provided at the proximal end of the U-shaped portion 11 c of the connection hook 11. In the present embodiment, the hook side annular portion 11 d integrally fixes the pair of open ends of the U-shaped member to the outer (proximal end side) surface of the proximal end of the U-shaped portion 11 c. It makes it a cyclic part. The fixing of the hook side annular portion 11d to the U-shaped portion 11c is performed by laser welding in the present embodiment, but may be performed by adhesion or the like.
 フック側環状部11dを構成するU字状の部材としては、連結フック11を構成する板材と同様の板材を適宜に折り曲げた(塑性変形させた)ものを用いることができる。フック側環状部11dを構成するU字状の部材の素材としては、たとえばステンレス鋼を用いることができる。フック側環状部11dの半円弧状の部分の外径は1.0~1.2mm程度、内径は0.8~1.0mm程度である。フック側環状部11dの断面は本実施形態では矩形としているが、円形または半円形等であってもよい。 As a U-shaped member which comprises the hook side cyclic | annular part 11d, what bent suitably the board material similar to the board | plate material which comprises the connection hook 11 can be used (plastically deformed). As a raw material of the U-shaped member which comprises the hook side cyclic | annular part 11d, stainless steel can be used, for example. The outer diameter of the semicircular arc portion of the hook side annular portion 11d is about 1.0 to 1.2 mm, and the inner diameter is about 0.8 to 1.0 mm. The cross section of the hook side annular portion 11d is rectangular in this embodiment, but may be circular or semicircular.
 フック側環状部11dを構成する部材としては、U字状の部材に限られず、環状(円環状、楕円環状、長丸環状、半円環状、半楕円環状、半長丸環状等)の部材または環状の部位を有する部材を、連結フック11のU字状部11cの基端部の近位端側外面にレーザ溶接等により固定するようにしてもよい。この場合の環状の部位を有する部材としては、たとえば、円環部および該円環部に一体的に形成された棒状部を有するものや外形が略U字状の板材に環状部を構成する貫通穴(円形、楕円形、長円形、半円形、半楕円形、半長丸形等の穴)を形成したものを例示できる。 The member constituting the hook side annular portion 11 d is not limited to a U-shaped member, and may be an annular member (annular ring, elliptical ring, oval round ring, semicircular ring, semielliptic ring, semi long ring ring, etc.) or a member A member having an annular portion may be fixed to the outer surface on the proximal end side of the proximal end of the U-shaped portion 11 c of the connection hook 11 by laser welding or the like. As a member having an annular portion in this case, for example, a member having an annular portion and a rod-like portion integrally formed on the annular portion or a through member forming an annular portion in a plate material having a substantially U-shaped outer shape A hole (a hole having a circular shape, an oval shape, an oval shape, a semicircular shape, a semielliptical shape, a semielliptical shape, or the like) can be exemplified.
 なお、本実施形態では、フック側環状部11dを構成する部材をU字状部11cの基端部の外側に一体的に設けているが、連結フック11の首振りの機能を実現する観点からは、U字状部11cの基端部の内側に一体的に設けてもよい。ただし、フック側環状部11dをU字状部11cの内側に設けた場合には、アーム部11a,11aの開閉の妨げとなる虞があるため、本実施形態のように、U字状部11cの基端部の外側に設けた方がよい。 In the present embodiment, the member constituting the hook side annular portion 11d is integrally provided on the outside of the base end portion of the U-shaped portion 11c, but from the viewpoint of realizing the swing function of the connection hook 11. May be integrally provided inside the proximal end of the U-shaped portion 11c. However, when the hook side annular portion 11d is provided inside the U-shaped portion 11c, there is a possibility that the opening and closing of the arm portions 11a and 11a may be impeded, so as in the present embodiment, the U-shaped portion 11c It is better to provide it on the outside of the proximal end of
 インナーシース12内にスライド可能に挿入された駆動ワイヤ13の先端(遠位端)には、図3および図4に示されているように、ワイヤ側環状部(第2環状部)19が設けられている。ワイヤ側環状部19は、本実施形態では、U字状の部材の一対の開放端を駆動ワイヤ13の遠位端にそれぞれレーザ溶接により一体的に固定して、環状の部位としている。ワイヤ側環状部19の駆動ワイヤ13に対する固定は、接着等により行うようにしてもよい。なお、本実施形態では、ワイヤ側環状部19を構成するU字状の部材の駆動ワイヤ13に対する固定は、固定強度を確保する観点より、図3に示されているように、U字状の部材の一対の開放端で駆動ワイヤ13の遠位端部を挟むようにして、U字状の部材の内面と駆動ワイヤ13の遠位端部の側面とを接合することにより行っている。また、本実施形態では、U字状の部材の外周面側を研磨加工することによって、駆動ワイヤ13との接合箇所におけるU字状の部材の厚さが近位端側ほど薄くなるようにしている。このようにすることにより、駆動ワイヤ13の遠位端部をインナーシース12に引き込むときに、U字状の部材(ワイヤ側環状部19)がインナーシース12の遠位端面にひっかかってしまう現象を防止できる。 The distal end (distal end) of the drive wire 13 slidably inserted in the inner sheath 12 is provided with a wire side annular portion (second annular portion) 19 as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4. It is done. In the present embodiment, the wire side annular portion 19 is integrally fixed by laser welding a pair of open ends of the U-shaped member to the distal end of the drive wire 13 to form an annular portion. The fixation of the wire side annular portion 19 to the drive wire 13 may be performed by bonding or the like. In the present embodiment, the fixing of the U-shaped member constituting the wire-side annular portion 19 to the drive wire 13 is U-shaped as shown in FIG. 3 from the viewpoint of securing the fixing strength. This is performed by joining the inner surface of the U-shaped member and the side surface of the distal end of the drive wire 13 so as to sandwich the distal end of the drive wire 13 with the pair of open ends of the member. Further, in the present embodiment, by polishing the outer peripheral surface side of the U-shaped member, the thickness of the U-shaped member at the junction with the drive wire 13 becomes thinner toward the proximal end. There is. By doing this, a phenomenon in which the U-shaped member (wire side annular portion 19) is caught on the distal end surface of the inner sheath 12 when the distal end of the drive wire 13 is pulled into the inner sheath 12 It can prevent.
 ワイヤ側環状部19を構成するU字状の部材としては、板材を適宜に折り曲げた(塑性変形させた)ものを用いることができる。ワイヤ側環状部19を構成するU字状の部材の素材としては、たとえばステンレス鋼を用いることができる。ワイヤ側環状部19の半円弧状の部分の外径および内径は、フック側環状部11dと略同径とすることが好ましく、外径は1.0~1.2mm程度、内径は0.8~1.0mm程度とすることができる。ワイヤ側環状部19の断面は本実施形態では矩形としているが、円形または半円形等であってもよい。 As a U-shaped member which comprises the wire side cyclic | annular part 19, the thing which bend | folded the board | plate material suitably (plastic-deformed) can be used. As a raw material of the U-shaped member which comprises the wire side cyclic | annular part 19, stainless steel can be used, for example. The outer diameter and the inner diameter of the semicircular arc portion of the wire-side annular portion 19 are preferably substantially the same as the hook-side annular portion 11 d, and the outer diameter is about 1.0 to 1.2 mm, and the inner diameter is 0.8 It can be about 1.0 mm. The cross section of the wire side annular portion 19 is rectangular in this embodiment, but may be circular or semicircular.
 ワイヤ側環状部19を構成する部材としては、U字状の部材に限られず、環状(円環状、楕円環状、長丸環状、半円環状、半楕円環状、半長丸環状等)の部材または環状の部位を有する部材を、駆動ワイヤ13の遠位端にレーザ溶接等により固定するようにしてもよい。この場合の環状の部位を有する部材としては、たとえば、円環部および該円環部に一体的に形成された棒状部を有するものや外形が略U字状の板材に環状部を構成する貫通穴(円形、楕円形、長円形、半円形、半楕円形、半長丸形等の穴)を形成したものを例示できる。 The member constituting the wire-side annular portion 19 is not limited to a U-shaped member, and may be an annular member (annular ring, elliptical ring, oval round ring, semicircular ring, semielliptic ring, semi long ring ring, etc.) or a member A member having an annular portion may be fixed to the distal end of the drive wire 13 by laser welding or the like. As a member having an annular portion in this case, for example, a member having an annular portion and a rod-like portion integrally formed on the annular portion or a through member forming an annular portion in a plate material having a substantially U-shaped outer shape A hole (a hole having a circular shape, an oval shape, an oval shape, a semicircular shape, a semielliptical shape, a semielliptical shape, etc.) may be formed.
 フック側環状部11dおよびワイヤ側環状部19の一方は他方に通された状態で連結されており、これにより、連結フック11が駆動ワイヤ13の遠位端に首振り可能に取り付けられている。連結フック11を、このようなワイヤ側環状部19およびこれに通されたフック側環状部11dを介して駆動ワイヤ13の遠位端に取り付けることにより、連結フック11は、図5において矢印B方向に、図6において矢印C方向に自在に回動することができるようになっている。 One of the hook side annular portion 11 d and the wire side annular portion 19 is connected in a state of being passed through the other, so that the connecting hook 11 is swingably attached to the distal end of the drive wire 13. By attaching the connecting hook 11 to the distal end of the drive wire 13 via the wire side annular portion 19 and the hook side annular portion 11d passed through the wire side annular portion 19, the connecting hook 11 is in the direction of arrow B in FIG. 6 can be freely rotated in the direction of the arrow C in FIG.
 ここで、駆動ワイヤ13に対する連結フック11の取付手順(製造方法)の一例について説明する。まず、連結フック11のU字状部11cにフック側環状部11dを構成するU字状の部材の各開放端をレーザ溶接により固定し、溶接部のバリ等を適宜に研磨・除去する。次いで、ワイヤ側環状部19を構成するU字状の部材をフック側環状部11dに通し、各開放端をレーザ溶接により駆動ワイヤ13の遠位端部に固定し、U字状の部材の外周面側と溶接部のバリ等を適宜に研磨・除去する。 Here, an example of the attachment procedure (the manufacturing method) of the connection hook 11 to the drive wire 13 will be described. First, each open end of a U-shaped member constituting the hook side annular portion 11d is fixed to the U-shaped portion 11c of the connection hook 11 by laser welding, and burrs and the like of the welded portion are appropriately polished and removed. Then, a U-shaped member constituting the wire-side annular portion 19 is passed through the hook-side annular portion 11d, and the open ends are fixed to the distal end of the drive wire 13 by laser welding, and the outer periphery of the U-shaped member Appropriately polish and remove burrs on the surface side and welds.
 なお、本実施形態では、ワイヤ側環状部19を構成するU字状の部材の各開放端で駆動ワイヤ13の遠位端部を側面から挟み込むように該U字状の部材を配置して駆動ワイヤ13の遠位端部に溶接固定しているが、該U字状の部材の各開放端の端面を駆動ワイヤ13の遠位端面に対して溶接固定するようにしてもよい。また、本実施形態では、U字状の部材の各開放端を駆動ワイヤ13に直接的に溶接固定しているが、他の部材を介して固定してもよい。たとえば、略円筒状のパイプ部材の一端側にU字状の部材の各開放端を溶接固定し、他端側から駆動ワイヤ13の遠位端を挿入して、該パイプ部材を駆動ワイヤ13に溶接固定するようにしてもよい。 In the present embodiment, the U-shaped member is disposed and driven so that the distal end of the drive wire 13 is sandwiched from the side by each open end of the U-shaped member constituting the wire side annular portion 19 The end face of each open end of the U-shaped member may be fixed to the distal end face of the drive wire 13 by welding, though it is fixed to the distal end of the wire 13 by welding. Further, in the present embodiment, each open end of the U-shaped member is directly welded and fixed to the drive wire 13, but may be fixed via another member. For example, each open end of a U-shaped member is welded and fixed to one end of a substantially cylindrical pipe member, and the distal end of the drive wire 13 is inserted from the other end, and the pipe member is inserted into the drive wire 13 It may be fixed by welding.
 本実施形態では、フック側環状部11dおよびワイヤ側環状部19の双方をU字状の部材から構成しているため、駆動ワイヤ13にワイヤ側環状部19を構成するU字状の部材を溶接固定および溶接部の研磨加工を行い、フック側環状部11dを構成するU字状の部材をワイヤ側環状部19に通した後に、フック側環状部11dを構成するU字状の部材を連結フック11に溶接固定および溶接部の研磨加工を行う手順とすることも可能である。しかし、連結フック11を駆動ワイヤ13に連結した後に、連結フック11の溶接部を研磨加工する作業は、連結フック11を駆動ワイヤ13に連結せずに研磨加工する場合と比較して、長尺な駆動ワイヤ13等が邪魔となって作業がし難いため、上述した本実施形態のような手順の方が作業の容易性および正確性の観点から有利である。 In the present embodiment, since both the hook side annular portion 11 d and the wire side annular portion 19 are formed of U-shaped members, the U-shaped members constituting the wire side annular portion 19 are welded to the drive wire 13. After fixing and polishing the welded portion and passing the U-shaped member constituting the hook side annular portion 11 d through the wire side annular portion 19, the U-shaped member constituting the hook side annular portion 11 d is connected to the hook It is also possible to set it as the procedure of performing welding fixation and the grinding process of a welding part to 11. However, after the connection hook 11 is connected to the drive wire 13, the work of grinding the welded portion of the connection hook 11 is longer than the case where the connection hook 11 is polished without being connected to the drive wire 13. Because the drive wire 13 and the like are obstructive and work is difficult, the procedure as in the above-described embodiment is advantageous from the viewpoint of the ease and accuracy of the work.
 図1および図2に戻り、アウターシース14の基端部(近位端)側近傍は補強コイル15に挿入されて該補強コイル15に一体的に固定されている。補強コイル15は第1スライダ部16に一体的に固定されており、第1スライダ部16の内側にベース部17の遠位端側の部分が挿入配置されている。第1スライダ部16は、ベース部17に対して、先端(遠位端)側に移動した位置と基端部(近位端)側に移動した2つの位置との間で位置決め可能にスライドし得るようになっている。 Referring back to FIGS. 1 and 2, the proximal end (proximal end) side of the outer sheath 14 is inserted into the reinforcing coil 15 and integrally fixed to the reinforcing coil 15. The reinforcing coil 15 is integrally fixed to the first slider portion 16, and a portion on the distal end side of the base portion 17 is inserted and disposed inside the first slider portion 16. The first slider portion 16 slides relative to the base portion 17 between a position moved to the distal end (distal end) side and two positions moved to the proximal end (proximal end) side. It is supposed to get.
 ベース部17には、第2スライダ部18がスライド可能に保持されており、ベース部17にはインナーシース12が固定されている。駆動ワイヤ13の近位端は第2スライダ部18に固定されている。 The second slider portion 18 is slidably held by the base portion 17, and the inner sheath 12 is fixed to the base portion 17. The proximal end of the drive wire 13 is fixed to the second slider portion 18.
 次に、このようなクリップ装置1を用いて体内組織を把持する医療用クリップ2について説明する。クリップ2は、図7および図8に示されているように、略U字形状に折り曲げられた連結板部21を有する。連結板部21のU字形状の各端部には、その先端に行くにしたがって略V字状に開いて(開脚して)配置された一対のアーム板部22がそれぞれ一体的に形成されている。 Next, a medical clip 2 for gripping internal tissue using such a clip device 1 will be described. The clip 2 has a connecting plate portion 21 bent in a substantially U shape as shown in FIGS. 7 and 8. At each U-shaped end of the connecting plate portion 21, a pair of arm plate portions 22 disposed so as to be opened (opened) in a substantially V shape as they go to the tip are integrally formed. ing.
 各アーム板部22の先端部には、爪部23が一体的に形成されている。爪部23は、アーム板部22の先端において、内側(即ち、閉じ方向)を指向して折り曲げられることにより、形成されている。各爪部23は、その先端の中間部分に凹陥する切欠部(不図示)を有している。 A claw portion 23 is integrally formed at the tip of each arm plate portion 22. The claw portion 23 is formed by bending the tip end of the arm plate portion 22 toward the inside (that is, the closing direction). Each claw portion 23 has a notch (not shown) which is recessed in the middle portion of the tip.
 クリップ2を構成する連結板部21と、一対のアーム板部22と、一対の爪部23とは、一枚の薄く細長い弾性体からなる板材を折り曲げ成形(塑性変形)することにより形成することができる。クリップ2を構成する板材の板厚は、特に限定されないが、好ましくは0.10~0.30mmである。板材としては、たとえばステンレス鋼が用いられる。 The connecting plate portion 21 constituting the clip 2, the pair of arm plate portions 22, and the pair of claw portions 23 are formed by bending and forming (plastically deforming) a plate material made of a thin and elongated elastic body. Can. The thickness of the plate material constituting the clip 2 is not particularly limited, but is preferably 0.10 to 0.30 mm. For example, stainless steel is used as the plate material.
 アーム板部22は、図8に示されているように、それぞれ、基端部22aと、把持部22bとを有している。各アーム板部22の把持部22bには、それぞれ貫通部22cが形成されている。これらの貫通部22cは、アーム板部22(把持部22b)の所望の強度を損なうこと無く、軽量化を図るために形成されている。 The arm plate portions 22 each have a base end portion 22a and a grip portion 22b, as shown in FIG. A penetrating portion 22 c is formed in the grip portion 22 b of each arm plate portion 22. The penetrating portions 22c are formed to reduce the weight without impairing the desired strength of the arm plate portion 22 (gripping portion 22b).
 連結板部21には、締め付けリング24がスライド可能に嵌め込まれている。締め付けリング24は、略円筒状のリング部材から構成されている。ただし、締め付けリング24は、線材をコイル状に巻回してなるスプリングで構成されてもよい。締め付けリング24は、その内側の案内孔に、連結板部21が挿通され、連結板部21の外周とアーム板部22の基端部22aの外周との間を軸方向に移動(スライド)可能に装着(外嵌)されている。 A clamping ring 24 is slidably fitted in the connection plate portion 21. The clamping ring 24 is configured of a substantially cylindrical ring member. However, the clamping ring 24 may be configured by a spring formed by winding a wire in a coil shape. The connection plate portion 21 is inserted into the inner guide hole of the tightening ring 24, and axially movable (slidable) between the outer periphery of the connection plate portion 21 and the outer periphery of the base end 22a of the arm plate portion 22. It is mounted on (externally fitted).
 締め付けリング24が、図7または図8に示されるように、後方寄り(連結板部21)に配置された状態では、アーム板部22は自己の弾性により開いた(開脚した)状態になっており、必要に応じて、締め付けリング24を先端寄りの位置(基端部22a)に移動(スライド)させることにより、アーム板部22を閉じた(閉脚した)状態にすることができる。 When the clamping ring 24 is disposed rearward (the connecting plate 21) as shown in FIG. 7 or 8, the arm plate 22 is in an open (open leg) state by its own elasticity. If necessary, the arm plate 22 can be closed (closed) by moving (sliding) the clamping ring 24 to a position (proximal end 22a) closer to the distal end.
 次に、上述したクリップ装置1の使用方法について説明する。まず、図9に示されているように、第1スライダ部16をベース部17に対して近位端側の位置にスライドさせて、インナーシース12の遠位端をアウターシース14の遠位端から突出させた状態とする。また、第2スライダ部18をベース部17に対して近位端側にスライドさせて、インナーシース12を駆動ワイヤ13に対して引き込み、駆動ワイヤ13の遠位端の連結フック11をインナーシース12の遠位端から突出させて、自己の弾性により略V字状に開脚させる。 Next, how to use the above-described clip device 1 will be described. First, as shown in FIG. 9, the first slider portion 16 is slid to a position on the proximal end side with respect to the base portion 17 so that the distal end of the inner sheath 12 is the distal end of the outer sheath 14 It shall be in the state which made it project from. Further, the second slider portion 18 is slid to the proximal end side with respect to the base portion 17 to draw in the inner sheath 12 with respect to the drive wire 13, and the connection hook 11 at the distal end of the drive wire 13 is It is made to project from the distal end of the arm, and is self-opened in a substantially V shape by its own elasticity.
 この状態から、第2スライダ部18をベース部17に対して遠位端側にスライドさせると、駆動ワイヤ13がインナーシース12に対して引き込まれて、駆動ワイヤ13の遠位端の連結フック11がインナーシース12内に入り込みつつ、除々に閉脚するので、クリップ2の連結板部21を連結フック11が把持するように位置決めして、インナーシース12内に埋没させて、完全に閉脚させることにより、クリップ2をインナーシース12の遠位端部に連結することができる。 From this state, when the second slider portion 18 is slid to the distal end side with respect to the base portion 17, the drive wire 13 is drawn into the inner sheath 12, and the connection hook 11 at the distal end of the drive wire 13. Since the legs are gradually closed while entering the inner sheath 12, the connection plate portion 21 of the clip 2 is positioned so that the connection hook 11 grips, and is buried in the inner sheath 12 to completely close the legs. , Clip 2 can be coupled to the distal end of the inner sheath 12.
 次に、第1スライダ部16をベース部17に対して遠位端側の位置にスライドさせて、クリップ2が連結されたインナーシース12の遠位端を、クリップ2とともに、アウターシース14内に収容(埋没)させる。この状態では、クリップ2の締め付けリング24は連結板部21に位置したままであり、アーム板部22はアウターシース14の内壁によって閉脚している。 Next, the first slider portion 16 is slid to a position on the distal end side with respect to the base portion 17 so that the distal end of the inner sheath 12 to which the clip 2 is connected is inserted into the outer sheath 14 together with the clip 2. Contain (fill in). In this state, the clamp ring 24 of the clip 2 remains at the connecting plate portion 21, and the arm plate portion 22 is closed by the inner wall of the outer sheath 14.
 次いで、図示は省略するが、内視鏡を介して、クリップ2が連結されたクリップ装置1のシース部(駆動ワイヤ13、インナーシース12およびアウターシース14)の遠位端部を、止血等の処置を行うべき体内組織の近傍に位置させる。その後、アウターシース14を近位端側にスライドさせることにより、クリップ2をアウターシース14の遠位端から突出させる。これにより、クリップ2のアーム板部22が自己の弾性により開脚した状態となる(図7参照)。 Then, although not shown, the distal end of the sheath portion (the drive wire 13, the inner sheath 12 and the outer sheath 14) of the clip device 1 to which the clip 2 is connected via an endoscope Position in the vicinity of the body tissue to be treated. Thereafter, the clip 2 is protruded from the distal end of the outer sheath 14 by sliding the outer sheath 14 to the proximal end side. As a result, the arm plate portion 22 of the clip 2 is in an open state by its own elasticity (see FIG. 7).
 アーム板部22が開脚した状態で、粘膜(体内組織)の把持すべき部位の近傍に位置させる。次いで、インナーシース12を駆動ワイヤ13に対して遠位端側にスライドさせることにより、締め付けリング24がアーム板部22の先端側にスライドする。その結果、アーム板部22が徐々に閉脚し(互いに近づき)、アーム板部22の先端部にある爪部23によって体内組織が挟まれる。 The arm plate portion 22 is positioned in the vicinity of the region to be grasped of the mucous membrane (body tissue) in a state where the arm plate portion 22 is opened. Next, the inner ring 12 is slid to the distal end side with respect to the drive wire 13, whereby the clamp ring 24 slides to the distal end side of the arm plate portion 22. As a result, the arm plate portions 22 gradually close (close to each other), and the internal tissue is pinched by the claws 23 at the tip of the arm plate portion 22.
 インナーシース12を駆動ワイヤ13に対して遠位端側にさらにスライドさせることにより、締め付けリング24がアーム板部22の把持部22b側に移動し、クリップ2による体内組織の把持が完了する。この状態で、インナーシース12を駆動ワイヤ13に対して近位端側にスライドさせることにより、図9に示されているように、連結フック11がインナーシース12の遠位端から押し出されて開脚し、クリップ2の連結フック11による把持(係合)が解除され、クリップ2の体内組織に対するクリッピングが完了する。 By further sliding the inner sheath 12 with respect to the drive wire 13 to the distal end side, the clamping ring 24 is moved to the side of the gripping portion 22 b of the arm plate portion 22, and gripping of the internal tissue by the clip 2 is completed. In this state, by sliding the inner sheath 12 to the proximal end side with respect to the drive wire 13, as shown in FIG. 9, the connection hook 11 is pushed out from the distal end of the inner sheath 12 and opened. Thus, the grip (engagement) of the clip 2 by the connection hook 11 is released, and the clipping of the clip 2 to the body tissue is completed.
 上述した実施形態によると、開閉部としての連結フック11を駆動ワイヤ13に対して、フック側環状部11dおよびこれに通されたワイヤ側環状部19を介して取り付けてあるので、連結フック11が駆動ワイヤ13に対して、自在に首振り可能となる(即ち、駆動ワイヤ13に対する姿勢の自由度が高くなる)。したがって、たとえば、図11に示されているように、比較的に大きく湾曲された内視鏡の処置具案内管3を通過する際に、インナーシース12内において、駆動ワイヤ13の遠位端と連結フック11とがワイヤ側環状部19およびフック側環状部11dの部分でストレス無く屈曲するため、この部分に大きな力が作用することを無くすことができる。 According to the embodiment described above, since the connecting hook 11 as the opening and closing part is attached to the drive wire 13 via the hook side annular part 11 d and the wire side annular part 19 passed therethrough, the connecting hook 11 is The drive wire 13 can be freely oscillated (that is, the degree of freedom of the posture with respect to the drive wire 13 is increased). Therefore, for example, as shown in FIG. 11, the distal end of the drive wire 13 and the inner end of the inner sheath 12 when passing through the relatively large-curved endoscope instrument guide tube 3 Since the connecting hook 11 and the wire side annular portion 19 and the hook side annular portion 11d are bent without stress, it is possible to eliminate the application of a large force to this portion.
 これにより、インナーシース12を処置具案内管3内に挿通させる際にインナーシース12の連結フック11が収容された遠位端部およびその近傍部分が該処置具案内管3の曲がりに円滑に追従するとともに、インナーシース12内で駆動ワイヤ13をスライドさせる際の支障となることを少なくすることができ、作業を円滑に行うことができる。また、駆動ワイヤ13と連結フック11との連結部分における変形(塑性変形)や破損等も少なくすることができる。なお、図11では、アウターシース14は図示を省略している。 Thereby, when the inner sheath 12 is inserted into the treatment instrument guiding tube 3, the distal end portion of the inner sheath 12 in which the connection hook 11 is accommodated and the vicinity thereof smoothly follow the bending of the treatment instrument guiding tube 3. At the same time, it is possible to reduce troubles in sliding the drive wire 13 in the inner sheath 12 and to carry out the work smoothly. In addition, deformation (plastic deformation), breakage or the like in the connection portion between the drive wire 13 and the connection hook 11 can be reduced. In FIG. 11, the outer sheath 14 is not shown.
 加えて、クリップ装置1の洗浄や収納等のため、シース部(駆動ワイヤ13、インナーシース12およびアウターシース14)を適宜な径で複数回巻回した場合に、駆動ワイヤ13とインナーシース12との巻回時の内外径差により、駆動ワイヤ13の遠位端のワイヤ側環状部19がインナーシース12の遠位端から外側に突出してしまう虞があるが、このような場合であっても、連結フック11が駆動ワイヤ13から脱落してしまうことがない。 In addition, when the sheath portion (the drive wire 13, the inner sheath 12 and the outer sheath 14) is wound a plurality of times with an appropriate diameter for cleaning and storing the clip device 1, the drive wire 13 and the inner sheath 12 There is a risk that the wire-side annular portion 19 at the distal end of the drive wire 13 may protrude outward from the distal end of the inner sheath 12 due to the difference between the inner and outer diameters at the time of winding. The connection hook 11 does not fall off the drive wire 13.
