ている。2. Description of the Related Art In an optical endoscope, an optical fiber bundle for image transmission and an optical fiber bundle for illumination are used. Even in the case of an electronic endoscope, an optical fiber bundle is used for transmitting illumination light. In this case, the optical fiber bundle is covered with a flexible tube.
【0003】内視鏡は一般に、複数の節輪が傾動自在に
連結されて遠隔操作によって屈曲する湾曲管部の先端に
先端部本体が連結されており、その先端部本体に光学繊
維束の先端部分が固定されている。In general, an endoscope has a distal end main body connected to a distal end of a curved tube portion which is connected to a plurality of articulating rings so as to be tiltable and bends by remote control. The part is fixed.
【0004】そのため、光学繊維束は湾曲管部内におい
て不規則に繰り返して屈曲されたり他の内蔵物によって
圧迫され、次第に光学繊維が折れて性能が低下してしま
う場合がある。[0004] Therefore, the optical fiber bundle may be repeatedly bent irregularly in the curved tube portion or pressed by another built-in member, and the optical fiber may be gradually broken and the performance may be deteriorated.
【0005】そこで従来は、少なくとも湾曲管部内にお
いて光学繊維束を二重の可撓性チューブで被覆し、耐久
性の向上を図っている。Therefore, conventionally, the optical fiber bundle is covered with a double flexible tube at least in the curved tube portion to improve the durability.
【0006】[0006]
【発明が解決しようとする課題】しかし一般に照明用光
学繊維束は、他の内蔵物との関係等から湾曲管部の外縁
に近い位置に配置される。However, the optical fiber bundle for illumination is generally arranged at a position close to the outer edge of the curved tube portion due to the relationship with other built-in components.
【0007】そのため、照明用光学繊維束の被覆チュー

側のチューブが節輪とそれに隣り合う節輪との間に挟み
込まれたり引っ掛かったりして、光学繊維束に不規則な
力が作用し、却って多数の光学繊維が折れてしまう場合
がある。Therefore, if the covering tube of the optical fiber bundle for illumination is simply doubled, when the curved tube portion is bent, the outer tube is caught or caught between the node ring and a node ring adjacent thereto. As a result, an irregular force acts on the optical fiber bundle, and many optical fibers may be broken.
【0008】そこで本発明は、光学繊維束を二重チュー

The portion of the reinforcing tube 82 facing the inner peripheral surface of the node ring 31 (that is, the portion facing the outer edge of the curved tube portion 3) is cut off. However, the cutting range of the reinforcing tube 82 in the cutting section 83 is less than half a circumference from the viewpoint of strength. Reference numeral 17 denotes a treatment tool insertion channel.

毎に切除部83が分けて形成されている。Returning to FIG. 4, the cutout portion 83 of the reinforcing tube 82 is formed at a position facing the boundary between the node ring 31 and the adjacent node ring 31. In this embodiment, a cutout portion 83 is formed separately for each position facing each of the three boundary portions on the distal end side.

強の役割を忠実に果たす。As a result, as shown in FIG. 4, when the curved tube portion 3 is bent in the direction in which the optical fiber bundle 8 for illumination is located, even if the adjacent node rings 31 abut, the reinforcing tube 82 is not bent. Since it is cut off at a portion, it is not sandwiched between the node rings 31. Therefore, the reinforcing tube 82 faithfully fulfills the role of reinforcing the optical fiber bundle 8 for illumination in the curved tube portion 3.

82を斜めに切り削いで切除部83を形成してもよい。It is sufficient that the cutout portion 83 is formed at a position facing at least one boundary portion between the adjacent node rings 31 and, for example, as shown in FIG.
The cut portion 83 may be formed to be long, and one cut portion 83 may face a plurality of boundary portions (boundary portions between the node ring 31 and the node ring 31 adjacent thereto). Further, the cut-out portion 83 may be formed by cutting the reinforcing tube 82 obliquely.

破損し難く、優れた耐久性を有する。According to the present invention, the optical fiber bundle is covered with the double flexible tube in the curved tube portion, and the outer flexible tube is provided in a region near the distal end body in the curved tube portion. The outer tube is not pinched between the node rings of the curved tube portion by cutting off the portion of the side facing the outer edge of the curved tube portion, so that the outer flexible tube reinforces the optical fiber bundle in the curved tube portion. The optical fiber bundle inserted therein is hardly damaged even when the curved tube portion is repeatedly bent, and has excellent durability.
