    摘要: An endoscope including a handle and a distal tip. The distal tip includes with a transparent front window, an image sensor having a rectangular shape, and a lightguide. The lightguide includes a circumferential surface configured to provide total internal reflection of light emitted from a light source. Cross-sections of the lightguide include four corners arranged around a centre axis so as to define four edges subdividing the circumferential surface into four side surfaces. The edges extend with a predetermined angle with respect to the centre axis and have a curvature where the angle of the surface with respect to the centre axis increases from the edges towards the middle of the side surface.

    摘要: An image capturing device includes: an image capturing system having an optical axis; and at least one illumination system disposed at a position so as to surround the optical axis. The illumination system includes: a reflective surface deflecting part of illumination light; a refractive surface deflecting the other part of the illumination light and the illumination light reflected by the reflective surface; and an emission surface from which the illumination light refracted by the refractive surface is emitted. In a cross section including the optical axis, the reflective surface has an area inclined in such a direction as to become farther away from the optical axis, the refractive surface has an area inclined in such a direction as to approach the optical axis and is disposed between the reflective and emission surfaces. The emission end is disposed at a radial position between rear ends of the refractive and reflective surfaces.
