  • Publication number: 20220241006
    Abstract: A treatment device equipped with high frequency capability has a pair of clasping jaws. The upper and lower jaws are openable-closable and serves as high frequency electrodes to clamp and seal and/or transect tissue. A blade traverses a channel in the upper and lower jaws and is used to open and close the upper and lower jaws. Additional structures and mechanisms contribute to the operation of the upper and lower jaws and add strength to the opening of the clasping jaws, which is useful in the procedure of peeling tissues using the opening movement of the clasping jaws.

  • Publication number: 20220240973
    Abstract: A treatment device having a vibration source, a transmission rod, treatment blade, and a jaw piece attached to a movable handle is disclosed. The treatment device is equipped with ultrasonic transducers which includes piezoelectric elements converting electrical power into ultrasonic vibrations. The ultrasonic vibrations are transmitted along the transmission members to the treatment blade that vibrates at ultrasonic frequencies to cut and/or seal tissues. The jaw piece is connected to the movable handle and open and closes with the movement of the movable handle. The treatment device is also equipped with an extension protruding from the operation body that allows the operator to operate the device and the movable handle at ease, even when the device is operated at different angles.
