技術分野
本考案は、歯科治療等の施術に用いる接触型の
レーザメスに関する。[Detailed Description of the Invention] Technical Field The present invention relates to a contact type laser scalpel used for dental treatment and other treatments.
従来技術

非接触であつた。そのため、施術時、患部の感触
を得ることができず、施術が非常にやりにくかつ
た。PRIOR ART Recently, laser scalpels have been used for dental treatment. Conventional laser scalpels focus the laser light emitted from the end face of a light guide with a lens or the like to increase the density. The treatment was performed by aligning the focus on the affected area, and there was no contact between the laser scalpel and the affected area. Therefore, during the treatment, it was not possible to feel the affected area, making the treatment extremely difficult.
目 的
本考案は、上述のごとき従来技術の欠点を解消

る。Purpose The present invention was made in order to solve the above-mentioned drawbacks of the conventional technology.In particular, the present invention is designed to enable the laser scalpel to come into contact with the affected area during treatment, and to provide contact that allows the user to feel the sensation of the affected area. The purpose was to provide a type of laser scalpel.

にすることができる。Configuration The figure is a cross-sectional configuration diagram for explaining one embodiment of the contact type laser scalpel according to the present invention. In the figure, 1 is a light guide from which laser light is emitted, and 2 is a light guide from which laser light is emitted from the end surface 1a of the light guide 1. The laser light introduced into the light guide 2 is reflected by the outer surface of the light guide 2 toward the tip 2a. As we move on,
During this time, the angle of reflection with respect to the outer surface gradually increases, and leakage from the light guide 2 to the outside becomes more likely toward the tip. Therefore, since a powerful laser beam is emitted from the tip of the conical light guide 2, the treatment can be performed by bringing the tip into contact with the affected area.
Therefore, in the present invention, the outer surface of the tip of the tapered conical light guide is formed into a rough surface 2b, and therefore, the laser beam is emitted to the outside more effectively at this rough surface. . The roughness of this rough surface may be constant, but it may also be formed in stages so that it becomes rougher as it approaches the tip, or by changing the length, density, etc. of this rough surface. , the distribution of laser light emitted from the tip of the light guide 2 can be made into a desired distribution.
効 果
