PUNCTURE ADAPTER AND ULTRASONIC PROBE

WIPO Patent Application WO/2014/080989

A1

In order to facilitate an operation of detachment from an ultrasonic probe while the external shape of a puncture adapter is kept small, a main body part of a puncture adapter of an embodiment includes a first section having a first width and a second section having a second width narrower than the first width. First and second operation parts approach each other in response to a detachment operation. First and second engagement parts are formed integrally with the first and second operation parts, respectively, and are engageable with an ultrasonic probe. A first connection part connects one end in the width direction of the second section and a position between the first operation part and the first engagement part. A second connection part connects the other end in the width direction of the second section and a position between the second operation part and the second engagement part. The first engagement part and the second engagement part moves away from each other in response to the approach of the first operation part and the second operation part in response to the detachment operation, and thereby the engagement is released.
