레이저 조사 장치 및 이에 구비되는 핸드피스Laser irradiation device and handpiece provided therefor
본 발명은 레이저 조사 장치 및 이에 구비되는 핸드피스에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to a laser irradiation device and a handpiece provided therefor.
최근 의료기기들의 발달에 따라, 의료분야에서 첨단의 레이저 기기들이 각종 질병의 치료 및 각종 피부 시술에 널리 활용되고 있는 추세이다. 이러한 각종 레이저 기기들은 시술자와 피시술자 모두에게 안전성 및 편리성을 제공하는 것이 중요하다.With the recent development of medical devices, state-of-the-art laser devices in the medical field are being widely used for the treatment of various diseases and various skin procedures. It is important that these various laser devices provide safety and convenience to both the operator and the operator.
이와 관련하여, 다양한 종류의 레이저 중에서도, 엑시머 레이저(excimer laser)는 들뜬 상태에서는 결합하고 바닥 상태에서는 흩어지는 화학종인 엑시머를 이용한 자외선 영역의 레이저로, 반도체 공정은 물론 피부 질환의 치료 및 시술에 널리 사용된다.In this regard, among various types of lasers, excimer laser is a laser in the ultraviolet region using excimer, a chemical species that binds in an excited state and disperses in a ground state. used
종래 기술로서, 피부 치료를 위한 엑시머 레이저 기기인 특허문헌 1은, 엑시머 레이저를 조사하기 위하여 엑시머를 생성하기 위한 가스가 채워진 엑시머 램프를 개시하고 있다. 아울러, 이러한 엑시머 램프가 적절한 온도 범위 내에서 효율적으로 작동되고 또한 안전하게 취급되기 위하여, 엑시머 램프를 냉각하도록 외기를 도입하는 구성이 개시되었다.As a prior art, Patent Document 1, which is an excimer laser device for skin treatment, discloses an excimer lamp filled with a gas for generating an excimer in order to irradiate the excimer laser. In addition, in order for the excimer lamp to operate efficiently within an appropriate temperature range and to be safely handled, a configuration for introducing external air to cool the excimer lamp has been disclosed.
다만, 특허문헌 1(JP 4670780 B2, 2011.01.28. 등록)은 엑시머 램프 주위에만 냉각을 위한 유동을 형성하고 있어 냉각을 위해 생성한 유동을 효율적으로 활용하지 못하고 있음은 물론, 엑시머 램프에서 발생될 수 있는 오존 등 유해 물질이 효과적으로 제거될 수 있는 필터 패스(path) 또는 공간을 확보하지 못하였다. 또한, 특허문헌 1은, 레이저가 조사되는 후방에서 엑시머 램프를 냉각하도록 구성되어 있어, 레이저가 조사되는 전방 부근에서 냉각을 수행하고 유해 물질을 제거하기 어렵다는 점이 문제가 된다.However, in Patent Document 1 (JP 4670780 B2, registered on January 28, 2011), the flow for cooling is formed only around the excimer lamp, so it is not possible to efficiently utilize the flow generated for cooling. It was not possible to secure a filter path or space to effectively remove harmful substances such as ozone. In addition, Patent Document 1 is configured to cool the excimer lamp from the rear to which the laser is irradiated, so that it is difficult to perform cooling in the vicinity of the front to which the laser is irradiated and to remove harmful substances.

한편, 본 발명에 따른 레이저 조사 장치(10)에서, 본체 필터(340)는 본체(300)에 위치되면서도 핸드피스(100)의 발진 램프(120)에서 발생되는 오존 등을 여과하는 역할을 수행할 수 있다. 구체적으로, 본체 필터(340)는 본체(300) 및 튜브(200) 중 적어도 하나의 내부 공간에 설치될 수 있고, 발진 램프(120)를 냉각하기 위한 유체가 통과되는 경로에 배치될 수 있다. 본체 필터(340)는 오존을 포함하는 유해 물질을 여과할 수 있도록 형성될 수 있다.On the other hand, in the laser irradiation apparatus 10 according to the present invention, the main body filter 340 serves to filter ozone generated from the oscillation lamp 120 of the handpiece 100 while being positioned on the main body 300 . can Specifically, the body filter 340 may be installed in the inner space of at least one of the body 300 and the tube 200 , and may be disposed in a path through which a fluid for cooling the oscillation lamp 120 passes.

나아가, 발진 램프(120)를 냉각을 위한 냉각 유동(F)의 발생과 발진 램프(120)의 유해 물질의 제거를 위한 구성이 본체(300) 내부에 마련됨으로써, 본 발명에 따른 레이저 조사 장치(10)는, 핸드피스(100)의 경량화가 이루어질 수 있고, 핸드피스(100) 자체의 소음 및 진동 또한 저감될 수 있다. 따라서, 본 발명은 시술자 및 피시술자에게 쾌적하고 가벼운 사용감을 제공할 수 있다.Furthermore, the generation of the cooling flow F for cooling the oscillation lamp 120 and the configuration for the removal of harmful substances of the oscillation lamp 120 are provided inside the body 300, so that the laser irradiation device according to the present invention ( 10), the weight of the handpiece 100 can be made, and the noise and vibration of the handpiece 100 itself can also be reduced. Therefore, the present invention can provide a comfortable and light feeling of use to the operator and the operator.
다만, 도 3에 도시한 것과 같이, 본 발명의 일 실시예에 따른 핸드피스(100)는 송풍팬(170) 및 램프 필터(180)를 더 포함할 수 있다. 송풍팬(170)은 제1 연통구(150)와 제2 연통구(160) 사이에 설치되어 냉각 유동(F)을 발생시키도록 구동될 수 있다. 그리고, 램프 필터(180)는 제1 연통구(150)와 발진 램프(120) 사이, 또는, 발진 램프(120)와 제2 연통구(160) 사이에 설치될 수 있고, 본체 필터(340)와 마찬가지로 발진 램프(120)에서 발생되는 오존을 포함하는 유해 물질을 여과할 수 있다.However, as shown in FIG. 3 , the handpiece 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention may further include a blowing fan 170 and a lamp filter 180 . The blowing fan 170 is installed between the first communication port 150 and the second communication port 160 may be driven to generate a cooling flow (F). In addition, the lamp filter 180 may be installed between the first communication port 150 and the oscillation lamp 120 or between the oscillation lamp 120 and the second communication port 160 , and the body filter 340 . Similarly, harmful substances including ozone generated from the oscillation lamp 120 can be filtered.
본 실시예에서와 같이 핸드피스(100) 내부에 송풍팬(170) 또는 램프 필터(180)가 더 구비됨으로써, 추가적인 동력이 확보되거나 필터링 기능이 강화될 수 있다. 다만, 본 발명에서는, 냉각 유동(F)의 발생이나 유해 물질의 여과 기능이 튜브(200) 및 본체(300)에서도 함께 수행될 수 있으므로, 핸드피스(100) 자체는 소형화 및 경량화하는 방향으로 설계될 수 있다. 구체적으로, 핸드피스(100)의 송풍팬(170)은 냉각 유동(F)의 형성에 기여하는 최소한의 보조적 동력만을 제공하도록 설계될 수 있고, 램프 필터(180)는 본체 필터(340)를 포함하는 전체 필터링 과정 중 일부 과정만을 수행하도록 설계될 수 있다.As in the present embodiment, as the blowing fan 170 or the lamp filter 180 is further provided inside the handpiece 100, additional power can be secured or the filtering function can be strengthened. However, in the present invention, since the generation of the cooling flow (F) or the filtering function of harmful substances can be performed together in the tube 200 and the body 300, the handpiece 100 itself is designed to be miniaturized and lightweight. can be Specifically, the blowing fan 170 of the handpiece 100 may be designed to provide only a minimum auxiliary power that contributes to the formation of the cooling flow F, and the lamp filter 180 includes the body filter 340 It may be designed to perform only a part of the entire filtering process.
한편, 본 실시예의 핸드피스(100) 내부에서, 발진 램프(120)를 냉각하는 냉각 유동(F)은 윈도우부(140)에 대한 냉각을 함께 수행할 수 있도록 구성될 수 있다. 이를 위하여, 제1 연통구(150)와 제2 연통구(160) 사이의 냉각 유동(F)은, 발진 램프(120)와 윈도우부(140) 사이를 통과하도록 형성될 수 있다.On the other hand, inside the handpiece 100 of the present embodiment, the cooling flow F for cooling the oscillation lamp 120 may be configured to perform cooling of the window unit 140 together. To this end, the cooling flow F between the first communication port 150 and the second communication port 160 may be formed to pass between the oscillation lamp 120 and the window unit 140 .
구체적으로, 도 3에 도시한 것과 같이, 제1 연통구로 유입되는 냉각 유동(F) 중 일부는 발진 램프(120)의 냉각을 위하여 램프 하우징(130)의 내부로 형성되고, 다른 일부는 램프 하우징(130)을 우회하여 램프 하우징(130)과 윈도우부(140) 사이로 형성될 수 있다. 램프 하우징(130)을 우회하여 윈도우부(140) 측으로 흐르는 유동은 윈도우부(140)가 함께 냉각될 수 있고, 발진 램프(120)를 냉각한 유동과 합류되어 제2 연통구로 흐를 수 있다.Specifically, as shown in FIG. 3 , a part of the cooling flow F flowing into the first communication port is formed inside the lamp housing 130 for cooling the oscillation lamp 120 , and another part is formed in the lamp housing. Bypassing 130 , it may be formed between the lamp housing 130 and the window unit 140 . The flow that bypasses the lamp housing 130 and flows toward the window unit 140 may be cooled together with the window unit 140 , may be merged with the flow that cooled the oscillation lamp 120 , and may flow into the second communication port.
이와 같이, 발진 램프(120)와 윈도우부(140) 사이로 냉각 유동(F)이 유도됨으로써, 발진 램프(120)의 외주면 중에서도 피시술자에게 레이저가 조사되는 면으로 많은 냉각 유동(F)이 공급될 수 있고, 아울러, 윈도우부(140)의 온도 상승이 억제될 수 있다.In this way, as the cooling flow F is induced between the oscillation lamp 120 and the window unit 140, a large amount of the cooling flow F may be supplied to the surface on which the laser is irradiated to the recipient among the outer peripheral surfaces of the oscillation lamp 120. In addition, the temperature rise of the window unit 140 can be suppressed.
다른 한편으로, 제1 연통구(150) 및 제2 연통구(160)는, 핸드피스(100) 내부에서의 냉각 유동(F)의 유동 저항을 줄일 수 있도록 배치될 수 있다. 구체적으로, 원통형의 발진 램프(120)가 연장되는 일 방향의 양 단부에 제1 연통구(150) 및 제2 연통구(160)가 배치되어, 제1 연통구(150) 및 제2 연통구(160)는 일 방향으로 공기를 흡입 또는 배출할 수 있다. 이에 따라 발진 램프(120)의 연장 방향과 나란하게 흐르는 냉각 유동(F)이 형성될 수 있어, 유동 저항이 증가되는 것을 억제할 수 있다. 나아가, 냉각 유동(F)이 형성되는 일 방향과 교차하는 방향으로 시술자의 손과 피시술자의 피부가 위치되므로, 시술자 및 피시술자에게 냉각 유동(F)이 직접적으로 노출되는 것이 방지되어, 사용감이 저해되지 않고 안전성이 확보될 수 있다.On the other hand, the first communication port 150 and the second communication port 160 may be arranged to reduce the flow resistance of the cooling flow F inside the handpiece 100 . Specifically, the first communication port 150 and the second communication port 160 are disposed at both ends in one direction in which the cylindrical oscillation lamp 120 extends, the first communication port 150 and the second communication port Reference numeral 160 may suction or discharge air in one direction. Accordingly, a cooling flow F flowing parallel to the extending direction of the oscillation lamp 120 may be formed, thereby suppressing an increase in flow resistance. Furthermore, since the operator's hand and the subject's skin are positioned in a direction that intersects with one direction in which the cooling flow F is formed, direct exposure of the cooling flow F to the operator and the recipient is prevented, and the feeling of use is not impaired. and safety can be ensured.
다만, 도 4에 도시한 것과 같이, 제1 연통구(150)와 제2 연통구(160)가 일 방향으로 일직선상에 위치되지 않도록 설계되는 경우에는, 케이싱(110)의 내부에 가이드 베인(190)이 설치될 수 있다. 가이드 베인(190)은, 예를 들면, 발진 램프(120)의 단부와 제2 연통구(160)를 유선형으로 연결하도록 형성되어, 케이싱(110)의 내부 공간에 유체가 정체되는 것을 억제할 수 있다. 가이드 베인(190)에 의해 유동 저항이 감소됨으로써, 냉각 유동(F)을 구동하는 송풍팬(170) 또는 본체 팬(330)을 경량화하는 설계가 가능하다.However, as shown in FIG. 4, when the first communication port 150 and the second communication port 160 are designed not to be positioned on a straight line in one direction, the guide vane inside the casing 110 ( 190) may be installed. The guide vane 190 is, for example, formed to connect the end of the oscillation lamp 120 and the second communication port 160 in a streamlined manner, thereby suppressing fluid stagnation in the inner space of the casing 110 . there is. By reducing the flow resistance by the guide vanes 190 , it is possible to design the blower fan 170 or the body fan 330 for driving the cooling flow F to be lightweight.
