[Technical Background of the Invention and Problems Therein] Generally, in medical examinations and surgeries using endoscopes, there are various procedures such as injecting medical solutions into the patient's body through the endoscope, and cutting and collecting diseased parts. We are taking the following measures. For this reason, endoscopes are equipped with a forceps channel through which the treatment tools for performing the above treatments are inserted, but due to changes in the pressure inside the body cavity, air and dirt inside the body cavity leak through the forceps channel to the outside. Sometimes it comes out. For this reason, a forceps plug as disclosed in Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 59-55502 is provided in the forceps insertion port to prevent air and dirt from leaking out. This forceps plug is made of an elastic material such as rubber, and is provided with a slit through which a treatment tool is inserted. This slit is usually closed airtight,
It can be opened by pressing the treatment instrument against it, and the treatment instrument can be passed into the channel.

The width of the conventional forceps plug 1 shown in FIG. 6 before the slit 2 is attached is the same on the upper surface 3 and the lower surface 4 of the forceps plug 1. In addition, the fitting part 5
The inner diameter of the forceps plug 1 is smaller than the outer diameter of the forceps insertion port 6, making it easy to install. As shown in the figure, the width of the slit 2 on the lower surface 4 side has increased, and the sealing effect of the slit 2 has been impaired. Therefore, there was a problem in that filth spewed out from the slit and fell on the operator.

Next, FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional view of the forceps plug 34, and FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view when the forceps plug 34 is attached to the insertion port body 30. The forceps plug 34 is made of silicone rubber,
It is made of an elastic material such as fluorine rubber or nitrile butyl rubber, and has a substantially cylindrical shape with a spherical concave surface 36 on the upper surface, and a fitting part 38 that can freely fit with the insertion opening body 30 on the lower surface. It is provided. Furthermore, a slit 40 is provided in the center of the forceps plug 34. This slit 40 is made with an extremely thin knife or the like, and is normally kept in close contact due to its extremely thin shape and the elastic force of the forceps plug 34. In addition, when the forceps plug 34 is not attached to the insertion port body 30, the concave surface 36
The relationship between the slit width 1 on the side (top surface) and the slit width 2 on the fitting part 38 side (bottom surface) is 1 >
2 , and when attached to the insertion port body 30,
12 . Further, the fitting portion 38 of the forceps plug 34 has a groove portion 42 with an inner diameter L 1 and a flange portion 44 with an inner diameter L 2 , and a flange portion 46 with an outer diameter L 1 ′ provided on the insertion port body 30 and a flange portion 46 with an outer diameter L 2
These grooves 48 are adapted to fit into each other. In this case, the groove 42 provided in the forceps plug 34
L 1 of the flange portion 44 , L 1 of the flange portion 46 provided on the insertion port body 30 and the groove portion 48 .
The relationship between the diameter and L 2 ′ is L 1 < 1 ′, L 2 < 2 ′.

Next, the effects of the above configuration will be described. First, the forceps plug 34 is attached to the insertion port body 30 of the endoscope 10.
Since the relationship between the inner diameters L 1 and L 2 of the fitting portion 38 of the forceps plug 34 and the outer diameters L 1 ′ and L 2 ′ of the insertion port body 30 is L 1 < 1 ′ and L 2 < 2 ′, the forceps plug 34 34 receives a tensile force at the fitting portion 38 to widen the slit shown by the arrow in FIG. Therefore, the slit width 2 on the fitting part side (lower surface) of the slit 40 of the forceps plug 34 is stretched.
The length is approximately the same as the slit width 1 on the concave side (top side).

As described above, the forceps plug 34 can be inserted by making the slit width 2 on the fitting side (lower surface) narrower than the slit width 1 on the concave side (upper surface) of the slit 40 provided in the forceps plug 34. When attached to the mouth body 30, the length of slit widths 1 and 2 is 12
Therefore, the deterioration of the sealing effect due to the tensile force on the slit 40 can be suppressed. Therefore, it is possible to prevent dirt and the like from spewing out from the slit 40 and hitting the operator.

Next, FIGS. 4 and 5 are diagrams showing other embodiments of the present invention. Incidentally, the same parts as in the above embodiment are given the same reference numerals, and the explanation thereof will be omitted. The shape of the slit 52 provided in the forceps plug 50 is as shown in FIG.
