The operation section of the endoscope is equipped with an insertion section, an eyepiece section, a bending operation mechanism, etc. By operating this operation section, you can bend the insertion section, switch air and water supply, or, in the case of endoscopes with a camera at the tip, take pictures. Lever etc. can be controlled remotely. Therefore, the operating section is required to have high mechanical strength in order to hold each of the above-mentioned mechanisms, but it is also required to be lightweight since the examiner operates the operating section while holding it in his/her hand.
