This high frequency electric scalpel device generates high frequency output under appropriate setting conditions from 117 points where switches for output control are closed. By the way, there is a power amplifier circuit that controls output characteristics as a means of configuring a high-frequency electric scalpel device, but this power amplifier circuit has load characteristics such that a peak output can be obtained at a certain load value due to load fluctuations. are doing. Therefore, if the load of the object to be treated, such as a human body, connected to the output end of the electric scalpel device deviates significantly from the load value that generates the peak output, the output of the electric scalpel device will change significantly. That is, if the load on the output side fluctuates despite the same setting, the output fluctuates greatly.

なる。[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] However, conventional high-frequency electric scalpel devices have a load characteristic in which the peak output occurs at a certain load value, so the load of the human tissue connected to the output side generates the peak output. As the distance from the load value increases, the output decreases and the ablation ability decreases. In other words, even if the required output is set and ablation begins, the ablation ability will change significantly due to changes in tissue load, making it difficult for the surgeon performing the procedure to notice that the sharpness of the scalpel changes during use. This results in a high-frequency electric scalpel device.

1 is a block system diagram of a high frequency electric scalpel device showing a first embodiment of the present invention, and FIGS. 2 and 3 are characteristic diagrams of load characteristics of the electric scalpel device shown in FIG. 1. In the figure, the output end of a signal generation circuit 1 that generates a high frequency signal is connected to the input end of a power amplification circuit 2 using class 0 resonance that is driven by this high frequency signal and generates a high frequency output that cauterizes a living body. This power amplification circuit 2 using class 0 resonance includes a power supply circuit 7 that supplies power to the amplification circuit 2 and has a variable power supply voltage.
It is further connected to a load detection circuit 3 that detects the load from the output state. This load detection circuit 3 is connected to a control circuit 6 that acts on a power supply circuit 7 to change the power supply voltage when the detected load reaches a preset load value. The control circuit 6 is also connected to the signal generation circuit 1 in order to adjust the drive signal supplied to the power amplifier circuit 2 when a preset negative 6:j value is reached. In the first embodiment configured in this manner, when a certain output setting is made, the signal generating circuit 1 generates a drive signal according to the output setting. Then, in response to this drive signal, the power amplifier circuit 2 using class 0 resonance generates an ablation output,
The cauterizing current reaches the affected part of the human body 8 from the active electrode 4 of this electric scalpel device via the load detection circuit 3 and flows to the return electrode plate 5.
この高周波出力は負荷特性を有しており、この負荷特性

適負荷R1は次式のように決定される。This high-frequency output has a load characteristic, and the load value at which the peak output is generated in this load characteristic, that is, the optimum load R1, is determined as shown in the following equation.

な双峰出力が発生されることになる。The load value detected by the load detection circuit 3 is! If it is less than R,
The control circuit 6 acts on the power supply circuit 7 to change the power supply voltage to v9,2.
Change to The maximum output when the power supply voltage is V8.2 is the maximum output when the power supply voltage is V. , 1, the optimum load tax R2 becomes RV/(2P) 2 DD2 wax (where R,>R2). When the optimum load is R2, the control circuit 6 has a load characteristic peak output of P. The signal generating circuit 1 is controlled so that In other words, the value of the load! If it is less than R, the peak output is P when the load is R2 for one set output. A load characteristic such as is obtained. Therefore, at all load values, a bimodal output like the load characteristic shown by the solid line g2 in FIG. 3 is generated.

This results in a load characteristic curve with two peak outputs. Therefore, if the negative 6) I characteristic with two peak outputs is used, the output fluctuation will be smaller in one set output than in the case of one load characteristic with one peak output, thereby making the procedure easier to perform.
