ENDOSCOPIC SURGICAL DEVICE AND OUTER SLEEVE
First Claim
1. An endoscopic surgical device comprising:
- an endoscope that observes the inside of a body cavity;
a treatment tool that inspects or treats an affected part within the body cavity; and
an overtube that guides the endoscope and the treatment tool into the body cavity,wherein the overtube includesan overtube body that passes through a body wall and is inserted into the body cavity,an endoscope insertion passage that is provided inside the overtube body and allows the endoscope to be inserted therethrough so as to be movable forward and backward,a treatment tool insertion passage that is provided inside the overtube body and allows the treatment tool to be inserted therethrough so as to be movable forward and backward, andan interlocking member that is configured to be movable forward and backward inside the overtube body, has an endoscope-coupled part to be coupled to the endoscope inserted through the endoscope insertion passage and a treatment tool-coupled part to be coupled to the treatment tool inserted through the treatment tool insertion passage, and has a dead zone where the forward and backward movement of either the endoscope or the treatment tool does not interlock with the movement of the other and a sensing zone where the forward and backward movement of either the endoscope or the treatment tool interlocks with the movement of the other, andwherein the interlocking member is configured to allow the treatment tool to rotate around an axis thereof without changing a positional relationship of the endoscope and the treatment tool with respect to the overtube body.

Abstract
Provided is an endoscopic surgical device and an overtube with which a surgeon can easily obtain a desired image and in which operability is high. The overtube includes a slider within an overtube body, which guides an endoscope and a treatment tool into a body cavity. An endoscope-coupled part and a treatment tool-coupled part are provided inside the slider, and the slider has a dead zone where the forward and backward movement of either the endoscope or the treatment tool does not interlock with the movement of the other and a sensing zone where the forward and backward movement of either the endoscope or the treatment tool interlocks with the movement of the other. The overtube body is configured to allow the treatment tool to rotate around an axis thereof without changing the positional relationship of the endoscope and the treatment tool with respect to the overtube body.

10. An overtube comprising:
-
an overtube body that passes through a body wall and is inserted into a body cavity; an endoscope insertion passage that is provided inside the overtube body and allows an endoscope for observing the inside of the body cavity to be inserted therethrough so as to be movable forward and backward; a treatment tool insertion passage that is provided inside the overtube body and allows a treatment tool for inspecting or treating an affected part within the body cavity to be inserted therethrough so as to be movable forward and backward; and an interlocking member that is configured to be movable forward and backward inside the overtube body, has an endoscope-coupled part to be coupled to the endoscope inserted through the endoscope insertion passage and a treatment tool-coupled part to be coupled to the treatment tool inserted through the treatment tool insertion passage, and has a dead zone where the forward and backward movement of either the endoscope or the treatment tool does not interlock with the movement of the other and a sensing zone where the forward and backward movement of either the endoscope or the treatment tool interlocks with the movement of the other, wherein the interlocking member is configured to allow the treatment tool to rotate around an axis thereof without changing a positional relationship of the endoscope and the treatment tool with respect to the overtube body. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13)
