But the locating part of adjusting that can slide only comes stop by the frictional force of screw.Thus, by to controlling under the situation that case side pulls, can't resist drag force and move, control dislocation when the housing, main body cover and base plate thereby can't prevent to fix by retainer ring at base plate.
Relative with it, among the present invention, make the side that is formed with protuberance 70a of base plate 70 of bottom board unit 64 and the opening surface 60a butt configuration of main body cover 60.Thus, base plate 70 with control housing 62 across the opening surface ground of main body cover 60 butt, bear drag force thereby control housing 62 for base plate 70.Thus,, control housing 62 when main body cover presses making,, can prevent that also the main body cover 60 and the position of bottom board unit 64 are offset even if bottom board unit 64 is dragged to insertion section 12 laybacks by the retainer ring 66 that screws togather with cylindrical member 72.Thereby, can prevent that operating portion 14 globalities are crooked or be fixed in the situation of action variation of the various operating mechanisms of bottom board unit 64, thereby can realize reliable operation.
In addition, as previously mentioned, in the endoscope of prior art, the contact site of locating part and main body cover only is a position.Thus, by when controlling the case side pulling, base plate is that fulcrum rotates with the contact site of locating part and main body cover, has produced the dislocation of main body cover and base plate at base plate.
Relative with it, among the present invention,, have the abutting part of two base plates and main body cover as preferred mode, two abutting parts are with respect to the roughly configuration symmetrically of axle of cylindrical member 72.That is, for the drag force holding capacity symmetrically roughly that screws togather when the retainer ring 66.Thus, by when controlling the case side pulling, the abutting part that can not produce with base plate and main body cover is the rotation of the base plate of fulcrum at base plate.Thereby, can prevent dislocation because of caused main body cover of the rotation of base plate and base plate.
Fixed axis 78 is the fixed axis of the operating mechanism of the bending operation that carries out bent angle portion 26.Be equipped with on the fixed axis 78 that pulley, LR handle knob 38, UD handles knob 40 etc., the draught line that bent angle portion 26 is drawn is installed on this pulley.Need to prove, in illustrated example, only illustrate fixed axis 78 for explanation.
