Endoscopic-use treatment instrument

摘要

An endoscopic-use treatment instrument includes: a wire; an Y-shaped knife formed by a flexible material and is disposed at the distal end of the wire and used for treatment conducted in a body cavity; a flexible sheath having the wire passing therethrough; an operation section provided to the proximal end of the wire and capable of rotating the wire around an axial line; a cylindrical bearing fixed to the distal end of the sheath; a rotative member inserted into the bearing and capable of freely rotating relative to the bearing; and a regulator section provided to the rotative member and regulating the rotation of the treatment member relative to the rotative member around the axial line. The rotation of the Y-shape knife relative to the rotative member around the axial line is regulated when the Y-shape knife makes contact with the regulator section.

1. An endoscopic-use treatment instrument, comprising:
a wire; a treatment member formed by a flexible material, the treatment member being disposed at a distal end of the wire and used for treatment conducted in a body cavity; a flexible sheath having the wire passing therethrough; an operation section provided to a proximal end of the wire and capable of rotating the wire around an axial line; a cylindrical bearing fixed to a distal end of the flexible sheath; a rotative member inserted into the cylindrical bearing and capable of freely rotating relative to the bearing; and a regulator section provided to the rotative member and regulating rotation of the treatment member relative to the rotative member around the axial line, wherein the treatment member is urged to expand outward in a radial direction of the flexible sheath when the treatment member is exterior to the flexible sheath, and the rotation of the treatment member relative to the rotative member around the axial line is regulated when the treatment member makes direct contact with the regulator section.
