An electrosurgical apparatus comprising:
- a main body formed with a suction passage therein;
- an extension member including a length adjusting tube coupled to a side of the main body and formed therein with an induction passage communicating with the suction passage, and a sliding part configured to slide while being guided by the length adjusting tube;
- and
- a blade configured such that a first end thereof protrudes outside through the sliding part, and a second end thereof extends to be electrically connected to the main body and receives high frequencies from the main body,
- wherein an entire length of the extension member is adjusted according to a position of the sliding part sliding along the length adjusting tube,
- wherein the length adjusting tube includes:
- a length adjusting part formed in a tubular shape, and formed with the induction passage therein;
- a coupling part protruding from a rear end of the length adjusting part facing the main body so as to be coupled with the main body;
- and
- a length adjusting-locking step protruding from an outer circumferential surface of a front end of the length adjusting part disposed opposite to the main body,
- wherein the sliding part includes a stopper having elasticity protruding inwardly from a rear end thereof facing the main body,
- wherein, in a process of inserting the front end of the length adjusting part into the rear end of the sliding part, the stopper is elastically deformed by pressure of the length adjusting-locking step when the length adjusting-locking step passes by the stopper,
- wherein the length adjusting part is provided with a guide groove concavely formed from the front end towards the rear end thereof,
- wherein, after the front end of the length adjusting part is inserted into the rear end of the sliding part, when the sliding part is moved along the length adjusting part, the stopper slides along the guide groove,
- wherein the sliding part has a tubular shape having an inner circumferential diameter larger than an outer circumferential diameter of the length adjusting-locking step,
- wherein the sliding part is provided with a first through-hole and a second through-hole, which are positioned at the rear end of the sliding part, and
- wherein the stopper includes:
- a ring-shaped fitting part fitted over an outer circumferential surface of the rear end of the sliding part;
- and
- a first stop protrusion protruding from the fitting part toward inside the sliding part via the first through-hole;
- and
- a second stop protrusion protruding from the fitting part toward inside the sliding part via the second through-hole, and
- wherein each of the first stop protrusion and the second stop protrusion is a T-shaped latch having a head configured to be elastically deformed to correspond to a shape of the guide groove and configured to be engaged with an inner side of the sliding part.
