A leg portion is provided at a second connector so that a gap is created between a flat circuit body and a circuit board. The leg portion also serves as a positioning projection, and a locking hole for being engaged with the positioning projection is provided at the flat circuit body. A guiding groove for receiving the leg portion is formed at a first connector. A guiding part for receiving the first connector in a sliding manner is formed at an end of an opening of the first connector, and an inclined part for sliding the guiding part there along is formed at an end of an engaging part of the second connector.

A locking lever is formed to include a pair of legs 16 upright from the wall of a first connector 10 and a pair of free ends 17 which continuously cross the pair of legs and provide a locking portion 18. A releasing lever 20 is formed to return to the legs from the free ends 17. A second connector 40 is provided with a hitting portion which hits against the end of the second connector 40. When the releasing lever is pushed, the free ends 17 are lifted by the theory of leverage at the furculum of the hitting portion, thereby releasing the locking between the engagement portions 18, 50. The releasing lever 20 includes a pair of arms 21 and a pressing portion 23 which continuously crosses the pair of arms. This configuration provides a connector locking structure which can prevent the base of the locking lever from being deformed and improve the feeling of clicking in coupling and capability of releasing the locking.

A portable endoscope having a control part containing an entrance end portion of a light guide for transmitting light for illuminating an object, and an illuminating light supply unit containing a light source lamp for supplying illuminating light to the light guide. A connecting mechanism detachably connects the control part and the light supply unit. A switch for turning on/off the light source lamp is provided in the connecting mechanism. When the light supply unit is connected to the control part in a predetermined state, the switch is turned on; when the former is detached from the latter, the switch is turned off. An electric resistor may be provided for gradually reducing the electric resistance between the lamp and a power supply therefor from a high-resistance state to a low-resistance state as the switch is moved from an OFF position toward an ON position.

An illuminating apparatus of an endoscope having a bulb disposed to face an entrance end surface of a light guide for illumination to supply illuminating light to the light guide. A concave mirror surrounds side and rear portions of the bulb to converge light emitted peripherally from the bulb in the vicinity of the entrance end surface of the light guide. A convex lens is formed at the distal end of the bulb to allow light emitted forwardly and obliquely forward from the bulb to be incident on the entrance end surface of the light guide.

A portable endoscope system has an illuminating light guide for transmitting light for illuminating an object. The light guide has an entrance end portion disposed in an endoscope control part. A light source lamp is contained in an illuminating light supply unit for supplying illuminating light to the light guide. A filament serving as a light emission source in the lamp is disposed such that the longitudinal direction of the filament is approximately perpendicular to an entrance end surface of the light guide. A spheroidal reflecting mirror converges illuminating light emitted from the lamp onto the entrance end surface of the light guide. A bore is provided in a side of the mirror for receiving a head portion of the lamp. A reflecting surface is provided on an inner surface of a rear end portion of the mirror.
摘要:
A device for preventing the observing objective lens window of an endoscope from collecting moisture by directing a small flow of air over the front surface of the observing objective lens window to form a layer of air which has the same temperature as the ambient atmosphere thereby stabilizing the temperature of the window. A control valve is provided which shuts off the flow of air in the event that the pressure within the body cavity in which the endoscope is inserted becomes too high due to the flow of air. A first embodiment of the control valve includes a cylinder and piston arrangement in which at a first position of the piston air is allowed to flow through the tube to the endoscope end. At a second position of the piston, air is vented directly to the atmosphere. In a second embodiment, a lateral hole is provided in the piston with the area of the hole and hence flow of air controlled by a screw the position of which determines the area of the lateral aperture.

The electrical connector has a pair of first and second terminal fittings each connected to each of a pair of first and second electrical cables and a connector housing holding the terminal fittings. The electrical connector comprises a cable distinction device for electrically connecting the first electrical cable to the first electrical cable and the second electrical cable to the second electrical cable. The cable distinction device has a cutout with a shoulder, the cutout allowing insertion of the electrical cables into the connector housing, the shoulder being positioned at a middle of an inner edge of the cutout, and the shoulder allows insertion of the first electrical cable but prevents insertion of the second electrical cable into the connector housing. The first and second electrical cables have an outer diameter equal to each other, and the first electrical cable has a protrusion projecting from an outer surface of a sheath to abut against the shoulder of the cutout when inserted in to the cutout. Alternatively, the first electrical cable may have an outer diameter larger than that of the second electrical, and the first electrical cable abuts against the shoulder of the cutout when inserted in to the cutout.

An objective lens is substantially telecentric toward the image side, and provided with an ultraviolet cut coating on its rearmost surface. An imaging plane of a CCD is arranged near a position where an image of an object is formed through the objective lens. An ultraviolet and infrared cut filter is interposed between the objective lens and the CCD. The cut coating and the cut filter have a total transmittance of 0.1% or lower for ultraviolet light.

A portable endoscope system has an illuminating light guide for transmitting light for illuminating an object. A light source lamp contained in an illuminating light supply unit supplies light to the illuminating light guide. The entrance end portion of the illuminating light guide is disposed in an endoscope control part. The illuminating light supply unit is detachably attached to the control part. The portable endoscope system includes a connecting cable which connects the light source lamp with an external battery to supply electricity to the light source lamp from outside the endoscope system.

A bendable portion which is provided at the distal end of an insert part of an endoscope and bent by remote control. The bendable portion includes an elastic and flexible double walled tube comprising a pair of inner and outer tubes for covering the bendable portion. A device for preventing enlargement of the diameter of the inner tube is sandwiched between the inner and outer tubes.
