Description

医療機器Medical equipment
 本発明は、医療機器の操作パネルに関する。 The present invention relates to an operation panel of a medical device.
 医療現場では、内視鏡など被検体内に挿入するものは、洗浄機での殺菌消毒を実施している。周辺機器であるプロセッサ装置や光源装置などにおいても、被験者や医療スタッフからの飛沫や、空気中に浮遊するウイルスにより、医療機器が汚染される懸念もあり、医療スタッフが直接触れる機会が多い操作パネルなどは汚染が広がりやすいため、殺菌や消毒を行って常に清潔に保つ必要がある。コロナウイルス(COVID-19)などのウイルスを確実に殺菌できる追加の殺菌消毒ニーズがある。 At the medical site, things to be inserted into the subject, such as endoscopes, are sterilized and disinfected with a washing machine. Even in peripheral devices such as processor devices and light source devices, there is a concern that medical devices may be contaminated by droplets from subjects and medical staff and viruses floating in the air, so there are many opportunities for medical staff to come into direct contact with the operation panel. Since it is easy for contamination to spread, it is necessary to sterilize and disinfect it to keep it clean at all times. There is an additional sterilization need that can reliably kill viruses such as coronavirus (COVID-19).
 しかし、拭き取りや消毒液を使って清潔にする方法では、スイッチ等の凹凸部分では十分に清潔にできない場合や表面の劣化を招く恐れがある。加えて、内視鏡などの検査では同一の機器をその日のうちに多数の被検者に使用することが多く、時間や手間のかかる方法だと医療スタッフの負担が大きくなる。 However, with the method of cleaning with wiping or disinfectant, there is a risk that uneven parts such as switches cannot be sufficiently cleaned or the surface may deteriorate. In addition, in examinations such as endoscopes, the same device is often used for a large number of subjects on the same day, and if it is a time-consuming and time-consuming method, the burden on medical staff will increase.
 特許文献1および2では、操作パネル上にフィルムなどの被覆部材を装着し、被覆部材を剥離することで操作パネル上の菌やウイルスなどの汚染に対する清潔性を維持する。 In Patent Documents 1 and 2, a covering member such as a film is attached on the operation panel, and the covering member is peeled off to maintain cleanliness against contamination by bacteria, viruses, etc. on the operation panel.

 しかし特許文献1および2では、被覆部材に対する殺菌は行われず、剥離後の処分の際に汚染が広がる恐れがある。また被覆部材を剥離する頻度は検査毎や時間経過によって行われるが、検査中の短い時間だけで汚染が広がりうる。上記の点を踏まえ、操作パネルに対する菌やウイルスによる汚染を防ぐ方法として操作パネル表面の劣化を招かない殺菌作業が求められる。殺菌作業は短時間で効率良く、加えて検査中も含めて随時に行えることが望ましい。 However, in Patent Documents 1 and 2, the covering member is not sterilized, and there is a risk that contamination will spread during disposal after peeling. The frequency of peeling the covering member is determined for each inspection or with the passage of time, but contamination can spread only in a short time during the inspection. Based on the above points, sterilization work that does not cause deterioration of the operation panel surface is required as a method of preventing contamination of the operation panel with bacteria and viruses. It is desirable that the sterilization work can be performed efficiently in a short time, and in addition, it can be performed at any time including during the inspection.

 図2に示すように、内視鏡システム10は、内視鏡11、プロセッサ装置12、光源装置15、ディスプレイ13及びユーザインターフェース(UI)14等を有する。内視鏡11は、光源装置15と光学的に接続し、かつプロセッサ装置12と電気的に接続する。プロセッサ装置12は、ディスプレイ13及びユーザインターフェース14とも電気的に接続する。図1に記載はないが、送気送水装置16は物理的に内視鏡11と接続し、操作パネルを備えうる。また送気送水装置16と同様にバルーン制御器、ナビゲーション装置、診断支援装置又は処置具電源などの内視鏡周辺機器が操作パネルを有し、かつ内視鏡11に接続してもよい。 As shown in FIG. 2, the endoscope system 10 includes an endoscope 11, a processor device 12, a light source device 15, a display 13, a user interface (UI) 14, and the like. The endoscope 11 is optically connected to the light source device 15 and electrically connected to the processor device 12. The processor device 12 is also electrically connected to the display 13 and the user interface 14. Although not shown in FIG. 1, the air supply / water supply device 16 may be physically connected to the endoscope 11 and provided with an operation panel.

 図3に示すように、光源装置15の操作パネル20aはパネルカバー21(図示しない)及びパネル部22を備える。パネルカバー21は、ボタン部23を覆っている。パネルカバー21の表面には文字表示部24が設けられている。パネルカバー21はパネル部22以外の操作パネル20aの表面を覆う。操作パネル20aの付近には電源の制御を行う電源スイッチ25a及び人の有無を感知する人感センサ26aが備わる。なお、ボタン部23及び文字表示部24の一部又は全体がパネル部22である構成でも良い。その場合はパネル部がボタン部23及び文字表示部24の機能を有する。人感センサ26aは、表示や操作を行う機構ではないため、光源装置15の側面などの操作パネル20aから離れた場所に設けてもよい。光源装置15の操作パネル20aや電源スイッチ25a、及び、人感センサ26aに関する構成は、プロセッサ装置12や送気送水装置16の操作パネル20bにも適用できる。 As shown in FIG. 3, the operation panel 20a of the light source device 15 includes a panel cover 21 (not shown) and a panel portion 22. The panel cover 21 covers the button portion 23. A character display unit 24 is provided on the surface of the panel cover 21.

It should be noted that a configuration in which a part or the whole of the button unit 23 and the character display unit 24 may be the panel unit 22 may be used. In that case, the panel unit has the functions of the button unit 23 and the character display unit 24. Since the motion sensor 26a is not a mechanism for displaying or operating, the motion sensor 26a may be provided at a place away from the operation panel 20a such as the side surface of the light source device 15. The configuration relating to the operation panel 20a of the light source device 15, the power switch 25a, and the motion sensor 26a can also be applied to the operation panel 20b of the processor device 12 and the air supply / water supply device 16.
 操作パネル20aの表面は、内面側に備わる光源からの光の照射を受ける光照射領域を有する。光照射領域はバックライトを備えるパネル部22の全体に加え、点灯と消灯で制御する機能のオンオフを示すボタン部23の各ボタン、及び各ボタンの機能を文字で記載し、機能がオンの時に点灯する文字表示部24の各文字表示が含まれる。光源は照明光を照射する照明光源31に加えて紫外線を照射する紫外線源32を備える。 The surface of the operation panel 20a has a light irradiation region that receives light from a light source provided on the inner surface side.

Each character display of the lit character display unit 24 is included. The light source includes an ultraviolet source 32 that irradiates ultraviolet rays in addition to the illumination light source 31 that irradiates the illumination light.
 図4に示すように、プロセッサ装置12は光源装置15と同様に、操作パネル20b、電源スイッチ25b、及び人感センサ26bを有する。操作パネル20bには光源装置15や他の内視鏡周辺機器には備わらない、内視鏡検査の開始および終了の制御を行う検査スイッチ27が備わる。 As shown in FIG. 4, the processor device 12 has an operation panel 20b, a power switch 25b, and a motion sensor 26b, similarly to the light source device 15. The operation panel 20b is provided with an inspection switch 27 for controlling the start and end of endoscopy, which is not provided in the light source device 15 and other endoscope peripheral devices.
 図5は、光源装置15の操作パネル20a(図3参照)の左下部分を拡大表示したものであり、操作パネル20aはボタン部23の直上など隣り合うような位置に文字表示部24を備え、それぞれのボタンの名前や図形(ピクトグラム)を表示することが好ましい。ボタン部23はボタン23a、ボタン23bを備え、それぞれの上隣りに文字表示部24を同様に文字表示24a、文字表示24bを備える。ボタン部23及び文字表示部24の文字または図形は表面のパネルカバー21(図示しない)に照明光の照射を受けた際に点灯するように、透明または半透明に記載される。また、図5のボタン部23の断面図を図7に、文字表示部24の断面図を図10に、パネル部22の断面図を図11、図12、及び図15に示す。 FIG. 5 is an enlarged display of the lower left portion of the operation panel 20a (see FIG. 3) of the light source device 15, and the operation panel 20a is provided with a character display unit 24 at an adjacent position such as directly above the button unit 23. It is preferable to display the name and figure (pictogram) of each button. The button unit 23 includes a button 23a and a button 23b, and a character display unit 24 is similarly provided with a character display 24a and a character display 24b on the upper side of each. The characters or figures of the button unit 23 and the character display unit 24 are described transparently or translucently so as to light up when the panel cover 21 (not shown) on the surface is irradiated with illumination light. Further, a cross-sectional view of the button unit 23 of FIG. 5 is shown in FIG. 7, a cross-sectional view of the character display unit 24 is shown in FIG. 10, and a cross-sectional view of the panel unit 22 is shown in FIGS. 11, 12, and 15.
 ボタン部23の各ボタンは照明光照射による点灯の状態が、常時点灯、押下で点灯又は消灯、押下で色が変わる等、機能により変化する。少なくともパネルカバー21の図形や文字の記載部分は、点灯を示すため透明または半透明である。 Each button of the button unit 23 changes depending on the function, such as the state of lighting by irradiation with illumination light is always on, turned on or off by pressing, and the color changes by pressing. At least the description portion of the figure or character of the panel cover 21 is transparent or translucent to indicate lighting.
 図6に示すように、照明光源31及び紫外線源32は制御部30により制御され、制御部30はプロセッサの指示に応じて照明光及び紫外線の照射の強さや時間、照射パターンを制御する。プロセッサは、ボタン部23に対する操作、電源スイッチ25aに対する操作、検査スイッチ27に対する操作、及び人感センサ26aによる感知のうち1又は2以上の組み合わせに応じて指示を出す。照射する時間はユーザがあらかじめ任意に設定でき、ボタン押下後5分間の照射など、十分に殺菌が行える時間に設定することが好ましい。また、照明光源31と紫外線源32の照射期間は連動していても良いし、していなくても良い。 As shown in FIG. 6, the illumination light source 31 and the ultraviolet source 32 are controlled by the control unit 30, and the control unit 30 controls the intensity and time of irradiation of the illumination light and the ultraviolet rays, and the irradiation pattern according to the instruction of the processor. The processor issues an instruction according to a combination of one or more of the operation of the button unit 23, the operation of the power switch 25a, the operation of the inspection switch 27, and the detection by the motion sensor 26a. The irradiation time can be arbitrarily set by the user in advance, and it is preferable to set the irradiation time to a time during which sufficient sterilization can be performed, such as irradiation for 5 minutes after pressing the button. Further, the irradiation periods of the illumination light source 31 and the ultraviolet source 32 may or may not be linked.
 また、電源スイッチ25aをオンにした際に連動して照明光源31がオンになり、電源スイッチ25aをオフにした際に連動して照明光源31がオフになり、パネル部22やボタン部23の照明が点灯又は消灯するのと同様に、紫外線源32も電源スイッチ25aと連動して発光することが好ましい。 Further, when the power switch 25a is turned on, the lighting light source 31 is turned on, and when the power switch 25a is turned off, the lighting light source 31 is turned off, and the panel unit 22 and the button unit 23 are turned on. It is preferable that the ultraviolet light source 32 also emits light in conjunction with the power switch 25a in the same manner as the lighting is turned on or off.
 紫外線源32は、エキシマランプ、又は、紫外線用LED(Light Emitting Diode)のいずれかを用いることができる。エキシマランプは、紫外線として、ピーク波長が222nm(±10nm)、波長帯域が200nm~280nmの第1紫外線を発することが好ましい。第1紫外線による生体透過率は、光強度が高くなる254nmの紫外線(特定紫外線)による生体透過率と比較して、小さくなっている。例えば、目の角膜の透過率(角膜に入射した光のうち角膜で吸収される光の割合)は、第1紫外線の場合は0.01%に対して、特定紫外線の場合は30%である。したがって、第1紫外線は、人や動物の皮膚や目に安全である。 As the ultraviolet source 32, either an excimer lamp or an LED for ultraviolet rays (Light Emitting Diode) can be used. The excimer lamp preferably emits first ultraviolet rays having a peak wavelength of 222 nm (± 10 nm) and a wavelength band of 200 nm to 280 nm as ultraviolet rays. The biological transmittance due to the first ultraviolet ray is smaller than the biological transmittance due to the ultraviolet ray (specific ultraviolet ray) of 254 nm, which increases the light intensity. For example, the transmittance of the cornea of the eye (the ratio of the light incident on the cornea to the light absorbed by the cornea) is 0.01% in the case of the first ultraviolet ray and 30% in the case of the specific ultraviolet ray. .. Therefore, the first ultraviolet light is safe for human and animal skin and eyes.
 紫外線用LEDは、紫外線として、波長帯域が300nm以下の深紫外線である第2紫外線を発することが好ましい。第2紫外線は、ウイルスや細菌の遺伝子情報を壊す機能を有するため、水や空気などの殺菌効果がある。例えば、第2紫外線は、ウイルスとして、ヒトコロナウイルス(HCoV-229E)に対して、高い殺菌効果を有している。また、紫外線用LEDは、防水又は放熱などの機能を備えていることが好ましい。紫外線用LEDは、水銀ランプと比較して、環境に与える影響が小さい。 The ultraviolet LED preferably emits a second ultraviolet ray having a wavelength band of 300 nm or less as the ultraviolet ray. The second ultraviolet light has a function of destroying genetic information of viruses and bacteria, and therefore has a bactericidal effect on water and air. For example, the second ultraviolet ray has a high bactericidal effect against human coronavirus (HCoV-229E) as a virus. Further, it is preferable that the ultraviolet LED has a function such as waterproofing or heat dissipation. Ultraviolet LEDs have a smaller impact on the environment than mercury lamps.
 図7および図8に示すように、ボタン23aは、パネルカバー21、照明光源31、紫外線源32、導光材33、フレーム34、スイッチ35、基板36を有する。ボタン部23の内面側に備わる導光材33は、基板36上に備わる照明光源31が発する照明光、及び紫外線源32が発する紫外線を透過させてパネルカバー21まで伝える。導光材33は、ボタン23aやボタン23bの形に対応する円筒状の形状であり、照明光および紫外線を透過する透明なシリコンゴムなどが素材であるゴムシリンダーを備えることが好ましい。パネルカバー21のうちボタン23aが占める領域が、導光材33を透過した照明光または紫外線の照射が行われる光照射領域となる。 As shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, the button 23a has a panel cover 21, an illumination light source 31, an ultraviolet source 32, a light guide material 33, a frame 34, a switch 35, and a substrate 36. The light guide material 33 provided on the inner surface side of the button portion 23 transmits the illumination light emitted by the illumination light source 31 provided on the substrate 36 and the ultraviolet rays emitted by the ultraviolet source 32 to the panel cover 21. The light guide material 33 has a cylindrical shape corresponding to the shapes of the buttons 23a and 23b, and preferably includes a rubber cylinder made of a transparent silicon rubber or the like that transmits illumination light and ultraviolet rays. The area occupied by the button 23a in the panel cover 21 is a light irradiation area in which the illumination light or ultraviolet rays transmitted through the light guide material 33 are irradiated.
 ユーザが任意のボタンを押下した際は、パネルカバー21を介して導光材33が基板36上のスイッチ35に接触し、照明光源31又は紫外線源32の少なくともいずれか1つを発光させる。パネルカバー21に紫外線照射が行われた際は、紫外線がパネルカバー外側まで透過し、殺菌が行われる。 When the user presses an arbitrary button, the light guide material 33 comes into contact with the switch 35 on the substrate 36 via the panel cover 21 to cause at least one of the illumination light source 31 and the ultraviolet source 32 to emit light. When the panel cover 21 is irradiated with ultraviolet rays, the ultraviolet rays are transmitted to the outside of the panel cover and sterilization is performed.
 図9に示すように、ボタン23aなどの1つのボタンに対して照明光源31及び紫外線源32を2つずつ設置して照射光の発光を強くしてもよい。なお、網掛けしている部分はいずれも網掛けをしていない照明光源31と区別をつけるために紫外線源32に対して行っており、外観上の違いは表していない。 As shown in FIG. 9, two illumination light sources 31 and two ultraviolet sources 32 may be installed for one button such as the button 23a to enhance the emission of the irradiation light. It should be noted that the shaded portion is applied to the ultraviolet source 32 in order to distinguish it from the unshaded illumination light source 31, and the difference in appearance is not shown.
 図10に示すように、文字表示部24において、文字表示ごとに照明光源31及び紫外線源32が基板36上に備わる。パネルカバー21と基板36の間にはフレーム34が備わるが、照明光及び紫外線のパネルカバー21への照射を妨げない形状となる。表示文字とその周囲の部分のパネルカバー21が光照射領域となり、例えば、文字表示24aに照明光が照射されると「透過照明」という文字が点灯し、同様に紫外線が照射されると「透過照明」という文字の付近の殺菌が行われる。 As shown in FIG. 10, in the character display unit 24, an illumination light source 31 and an ultraviolet source 32 are provided on the substrate 36 for each character display. A frame 34 is provided between the panel cover 21 and the substrate 36, but the shape does not interfere with the irradiation of the panel cover 21 with illumination light and ultraviolet rays. The display character and the panel cover 21 in the surrounding portion serve as a light irradiation area. For example, when the character display 24a is irradiated with illumination light, the character "transmitted illumination" is lit, and similarly, when ultraviolet light is irradiated, "transmissive" is emitted. Sterilization is performed near the word "lighting".
 パネル部22(図5参照)は表示の際にバックライトの点灯が行われ、パネル部22はタッチパネル37又は液晶パネル38の少なくとも一方を備える。タッチパネル37及び液晶パネル38が共に備わる場合は、タッチパネル37が表面側、液晶パネル38が内面側となる。タッチパネル37は透明な構造であるため、タッチパネル37の内面と接する液晶パネル38の表面に届いた光は、タッチパネル37の表面まで透過する。バックライトは、照明光源31からの照明光を導光板40又は拡散板42を伝い、パネル部22全体の画像表示面を内面側からほぼ均一な明るさで照明する面光源となる。紫外線も同様にパネル部22をほぼ均一に照射する。そのため光照射領域はパネル部22のバックライトの点灯範囲全体を含む。パネル部22がタッチパネル37を備えない場合、導光板40又は拡散板42を用いない構成でパネル部全体のバックライト点灯を行う。 The panel unit 22 (see FIG. 5) is backlit at the time of display, and the panel unit 22 includes at least one of the touch panel 37 and the liquid crystal panel 38. When both the touch panel 37 and the liquid crystal panel 38 are provided, the touch panel 37 is on the front surface side and the liquid crystal panel 38 is on the inner surface side. Since the touch panel 37 has a transparent structure, the light that reaches the surface of the liquid crystal panel 38 in contact with the inner surface of the touch panel 37 is transmitted to the surface of the touch panel 37. The backlight is a surface light source that transmits the illumination light from the illumination light source 31 through the light guide plate 40 or the diffuser plate 42 and illuminates the image display surface of the entire panel portion 22 from the inner surface side with substantially uniform brightness. Similarly, ultraviolet rays irradiate the panel portion 22 substantially uniformly. Therefore, the light irradiation area includes the entire lighting range of the backlight of the panel unit 22. When the panel portion 22 does not include the touch panel 37, the backlight of the entire panel portion is turned on without using the light guide plate 40 or the diffusion plate 42.
 図11に示すように、照明光源31を端面側に備える導光板40及び紫外線源32を端面側に備える紫外線導光板41は矩形状に成形され、パネル部22の内面側に重なる配置をしている。導光板40において、端面に光学的に接続した光源が沿うように備わり、端面から内部に入射した照明光はその内部で反射することにより、パネル部22とほぼ同じサイズの照射面から照射する。パネル部22の内面側に位置する液晶パネル38の表示と連動してバックライトとして照明光が点灯する。また、バックライトが点灯する範囲は光照射領域であり、基板36側に配置される紫外線導光板41から照射する紫外線も導光板40と同様に行われる。この場合、紫外線導光板41から照射する紫外線は導光板40を透過し、パネル部22の表面側に位置するタッチパネル37の殺菌が行われる。 As shown in FIG. 11, the light guide plate 40 having the illumination light source 31 on the end face side and the ultraviolet light guide plate 41 having the ultraviolet source 32 on the end face side are formed into a rectangular shape and are arranged so as to overlap the inner surface side of the panel portion 22. There is. In the light guide plate 40, a light source optically connected to the end face is provided along the end face, and the illumination light incident on the inside from the end face is reflected inside the light source plate 40 to irradiate from the irradiation surface having substantially the same size as the panel portion 22. Illumination light is turned on as a backlight in conjunction with the display of the liquid crystal panel 38 located on the inner surface side of the panel unit 22. Further, the range in which the backlight is turned on is the light irradiation region, and the ultraviolet rays emitted from the ultraviolet light guide plate 41 arranged on the substrate 36 side are also performed in the same manner as the light guide plate 40. In this case, the ultraviolet rays emitted from the ultraviolet light guide plate 41 pass through the light guide plate 40, and the touch panel 37 located on the surface side of the panel portion 22 is sterilized.
 図12に示すように、導光板40は紫外線導光板41の機能を兼ね備えてもよい。紫外線源32(図12には図示しない)は導光板40の端面側に、照明光源31と交互に並べて配置され、端面から入射する照明光及び紫外線はそれぞれ導光板40の照射面からパネル部22へ照射する。 As shown in FIG. 12, the light guide plate 40 may also have the function of the ultraviolet light guide plate 41. The ultraviolet source 32 (not shown in FIG. 12) is arranged side by side with the illumination light source 31 alternately on the end face side of the light guide plate 40, and the illumination light and the ultraviolet rays incident from the end face are respectively from the irradiation surface of the light guide plate 40 to the panel portion 22. Irradiate to.
 図13は、図12においてY方向から見た場合の図である。端面側に照明光源31及び紫外線源32が交互に配置される。なお、照明光源31及び紫外線源32は導光板40の端面側の一方向からのみではなく、別の端面側にも配置し、二方向からの入射を行ってもよい。 FIG. 13 is a view when viewed from the Y direction in FIG. 12. The illumination light source 31 and the ultraviolet source 32 are alternately arranged on the end face side. The illumination light source 31 and the ultraviolet source 32 may be arranged not only from one direction on the end face side of the light guide plate 40 but also on another end face side to perform incidents from two directions.
 図14に示すように、図11に重ねて配置した導光板40及び紫外線導光板41は1枚の板状になるように交互に配置する構成にしてもよい。この場合、それぞれの導光板40の端面には照明光源31からの照明光を照射し、紫外線導光板41の端面には紫外線源32からの紫外線を照射する。 As shown in FIG. 14, the light guide plates 40 and the ultraviolet light guide plates 41 arranged so as to overlap with FIG. 11 may be alternately arranged so as to form one plate. In this case, the end face of each light guide plate 40 is irradiated with the illumination light from the illumination light source 31, and the end face of the ultraviolet light guide plate 41 is irradiated with the ultraviolet rays from the ultraviolet source 32.
 図15に示すように、パネル部22の内面側に矩形状に成形された拡散板42は、入射面から入射した光を拡散させて照射面から照射する作用をもつ。拡散板42の直下の基板36上に面状に配置した照明光源31及び紫外線源32が備わり、拡散板42と光学的に接続する。拡散板42の入射面から内部に入射した照明光及び紫外線は、その内部で拡散することにより、パネル部22とほぼ同じサイズの照射面から照射する。パネル部22の内面側に位置する液晶パネル38の表示と連動してバックライトとして照明光が点灯する。また、バックライトが点灯する範囲は光照射領域であり、紫外線の照射も行われ、パネル部22の表面側に位置するタッチパネル37の殺菌が行われる。なお、図16に示すように、基板36上の照明光源31及び紫外線源32は交互に面状に配置することが好ましい。 As shown in FIG. 15, the diffuser plate 42 formed in a rectangular shape on the inner surface side of the panel portion 22 has a function of diffusing the light incident from the incident surface and irradiating it from the irradiation surface. An illumination light source 31 and an ultraviolet source 32 arranged in a plane shape are provided on the substrate 36 directly below the diffuser plate 42, and are optically connected to the diffuser plate 42. The illumination light and ultraviolet rays incident on the inside from the incident surface of the diffuser plate 42 are diffused inside the diffuser plate 42 to irradiate from the irradiation surface having substantially the same size as the panel portion 22. Illumination light is turned on as a backlight in conjunction with the display of the liquid crystal panel 38 located on the inner surface side of the panel unit 22. Further, the range in which the backlight is turned on is the light irradiation area, the irradiation with ultraviolet rays is also performed, and the touch panel 37 located on the surface side of the panel portion 22 is sterilized. As shown in FIG. 16, it is preferable that the illumination light source 31 and the ultraviolet source 32 on the substrate 36 are alternately arranged in a plane.
 紫外線源32による紫外線照射のタイミングは、以下に示す7つの照射パターンが考えられる。第1及び第2照射パターンは検査前に、第3照射パターンは検査中に、第4から第6照射パターンは検査後に、第7照射パターンは随時に紫外線照射を行うパターンである。第1~第6照射パターンでは、紫外線源32は医療機器の光照射領域全体に紫外線照射を行う。また、第7照射パターンも含めたこれらの照射パターンは医療機器の使用環境や検査状況などに応じて組み合わせて行うことが好ましい。なお、第1~第7照射パターンは、制御部30により紫外線源32を制御することにより行われる。医療機器(光源装置15又はプロセッサ装置12)が、電源スイッチ25a、検査スイッチ27、及び人感センサ26aの少なくとも1つを有する場合において、制御部30は、電源スイッチ25aに対する操作、検査スイッチ27に対する操作、及び人感センサ26aに対する操作のうち1又は2以上の組み合わせにより、紫外線源32を制御することによって、第1~第7照射パターンを実施する。 The timing of ultraviolet irradiation by the ultraviolet source 32 can be considered as the following seven irradiation patterns. The first and second irradiation patterns are before the inspection, the third irradiation pattern is during the inspection, the fourth to sixth irradiation patterns are after the inspection, and the seventh irradiation pattern is a pattern in which ultraviolet irradiation is performed at any time. In the first to sixth irradiation patterns, the ultraviolet source 32 irradiates the entire light irradiation region of the medical device with ultraviolet rays. Further, it is preferable to perform these irradiation patterns including the seventh irradiation pattern in combination according to the usage environment of the medical device, the inspection situation, and the like. The first to seventh irradiation patterns are performed by controlling the ultraviolet source 32 by the control unit 30. When the medical device (light source device 15 or processor device 12) has at least one of the power switch 25a, the inspection switch 27, and the motion sensor 26a, the control unit 30 operates the power switch 25a and the inspection switch 27. The first to seventh irradiation patterns are carried out by controlling the ultraviolet source 32 by one or a combination of one or two or more of the operation and the operation for the motion sensor 26a.
 検査前では、検査開始時に医療機器ができるだけ殺菌した状態となることが好ましい。第1照射パターンは、電源スイッチ25aをオンにした際に照明光源31と同様に、紫外線源32が連動して紫外線の照射を一定期間行う。第2照射パターンは、電源スイッチ25aをオンにした後に紫外線源32を検査予約システムと連動させて、検査時間の所定時間前に合わせて紫外線照射を行う。 Before the test, it is preferable that the medical device is in a sterilized state as much as possible at the start of the test. In the first irradiation pattern, when the power switch 25a is turned on, the ultraviolet source 32 interlocks with the illumination light source 31 to irradiate the ultraviolet rays for a certain period of time. In the second irradiation pattern, after the power switch 25a is turned on, the ultraviolet source 32 is interlocked with the inspection reservation system, and ultraviolet irradiation is performed in accordance with a predetermined time before the inspection time.
 検査中では、医療機器が、患者を含む複数人による飛沫等の付着の恐れが高くなるため、殺菌状態を継続させることが好ましい。第3照射パターンは、検査スイッチ27の押下による検査開始の際に、紫外線源32が連動して紫外線照射を行う。検査中はユーザを含む医療従事者や患者が医療機器の至近距離にいるため、人や動物の皮膚や目に安全である第1紫外線で照射を行う場合に照射可能となる。検査中は照明光照射が常に行われているのに対して、紫外線照射は同様に常に行っても良いし、一定期間ごとのオンオフを繰り返してもよい。 During the examination, it is preferable to continue the sterilized state because there is a high risk that the medical device will be attached by multiple people including the patient. In the third irradiation pattern, when the inspection is started by pressing the inspection switch 27, the ultraviolet source 32 interlocks to perform ultraviolet irradiation. Since the medical staff including the user and the patient are in close proximity to the medical device during the examination, it is possible to irradiate with the first ultraviolet light, which is safe for the skin and eyes of humans and animals. While the illumination light irradiation is always performed during the inspection, the ultraviolet irradiation may be performed at all times in the same manner, or may be repeatedly turned on and off at regular intervals.
 検査後は、一連の検査の工程で飛沫やウイルスなどが医療機器の特に操作パネルに付着する。同一の医療機器による検査は1日に複数の患者に対して行われることもあり、次回の検査に汚染を残さないように十分に殺菌することが好ましい。第4照射パターンは、検査スイッチ27の押下による検査終了の際に、紫外線源32が連動して紫外線照射を一定期間行う。第5照射パターンは、電源スイッチ25aをオフにした際に、紫外線源32が連動して紫外線の照射を一定期間行う。第6照射パターンは、人感センサ26aより、人が不在と判断したときに紫外線源32が作動し、紫外線照射を一定期間行う。 After the inspection, droplets and viruses adhere to the medical equipment, especially the operation panel, in a series of inspection processes. Tests with the same medical device may be performed on multiple patients per day, and it is preferable to sterilize them sufficiently so as not to leave contamination in the next test. In the fourth irradiation pattern, when the inspection is completed by pressing the inspection switch 27, the ultraviolet source 32 is interlocked to perform ultraviolet irradiation for a certain period of time. In the fifth irradiation pattern, when the power switch 25a is turned off, the ultraviolet source 32 interlocks to irradiate the ultraviolet rays for a certain period of time. In the sixth irradiation pattern, the ultraviolet source 32 is activated when the human sensor 26a determines that a person is absent, and ultraviolet irradiation is performed for a certain period of time.
 検査のタイミングに関わらず、医療機器の操作パネル20aはユーザの指が頻繁に接触するためウイルスなどの付着の恐れが大きく、指の接触の頻度に対応して殺菌を行うことが好ましい。第7照射パターンは、ボタン部23のボタン23aやボタン23bなどのボタンが押下された際に、紫外線源32が連動して少なくとも押下されたボタンと、それに対応する文字表示のパネルカバー21の紫外線照射を一定期間行う。第7照射パターンでは少なくともユーザが医療機器の付近にいるため、第3照射パターンと同様に、第1紫外線で照射を行う場合に照射可能となる。 Regardless of the timing of the inspection, the operation panel 20a of the medical device is frequently in contact with the user's finger, so that there is a high risk of attachment of a virus or the like, and it is preferable to sterilize according to the frequency of finger contact. In the seventh irradiation pattern, when a button such as the button 23a or the button 23b of the button portion 23 is pressed, at least the button pressed by the ultraviolet source 32 in conjunction with the button and the corresponding ultraviolet light of the panel cover 21 for displaying characters. Irradiate for a certain period of time. In the seventh irradiation pattern, since the user is at least in the vicinity of the medical device, irradiation is possible when the irradiation is performed with the first ultraviolet ray, as in the third irradiation pattern.
 第1から第4、及び第7照射パターンのように電源スイッチ25aがオンになっている医療機器使用中では、照明光源31と紫外線源32を同時に作動させて照明光及び紫外線の照射を行うが、第5、第6照射パターンのように、医療機器の使用後に紫外線照射のみを行う場合では紫外線源32のみを作動させるなど、選択的に作動させてもよい。選択的に光源を制御する場合は、操作パネル20aから照射の開始及び終了の設定をするなど、操作パネル20aを介して指示することが好ましい。 While using a medical device in which the power switch 25a is turned on as in the first to fourth and seventh irradiation patterns, the illumination light source 31 and the ultraviolet source 32 are simultaneously operated to irradiate the illumination light and the ultraviolet rays. , 5th and 6th irradiation patterns may be selectively operated, such as operating only the ultraviolet source 32 when only ultraviolet irradiation is performed after the use of the medical device. When the light source is selectively controlled, it is preferable to give an instruction via the operation panel 20a, such as setting the start and end of irradiation from the operation panel 20a.
 図17に示すように、内視鏡システム10に含まれる医療機器でなくても、操作パネル20aと同様もしくは類似した部位を有する内視鏡検査の関連機器に対して上記照明光源31および紫外線源32を用いた殺菌機能を備えさせてもよい。図17は内視鏡洗浄装置50で、検査済みの内視鏡11を洗浄する。内視鏡洗浄装置50は、洗浄の開始や終了、洗浄時間の設定などを行う操作パネル51を有し、ユーザが指で触れる。ユーザが操作パネル51の操作を行う度に紫外線による光照射領域の殺菌が行われる。 As shown in FIG. 17, the illumination light source 31 and the ultraviolet source for the related equipment for endoscopy having the same or similar parts as the operation panel 20a, even if they are not the medical equipment included in the endoscopy system 10. 32 may be provided with a sterilizing function. FIG. 17 shows the endoscope cleaning device 50 for cleaning the examined endoscope 11. The endoscope cleaning device 50 has an operation panel 51 for setting the start and end of cleaning, setting the cleaning time, and the like, and the user touches it with a finger. Every time the user operates the operation panel 51, the light irradiation area is sterilized by ultraviolet rays.
