One embodiment of the present invention configured as described above is the third embodiment of the present invention.
As shown in the figure, the cleaning tank 2 is first shortened downward. After pulling out the endoscope A from the body cavity, grasp the operating part B of the endoscope A, let the insertion part C hang down, and insert the lower end of the insertion part C into the washing tank 2.
It is located approximately at the center of the cleaning tank 2. Next, operate the operation switch 16 with your foot to operate the liquid feed pump 5 and the drain pump, and also rotate the drive motor 14 in the forward direction. Then, the water pumped by the liquid pump 5 is ejected from the nozzle 4, and the ejected water cleans the insertion section C of the endoscope A, and the nozzle body 3 is pulled up. The nozzle body 3 rises while cleaning the insertion portion C, and the cleaning tank 2 extends upward along with it. The water used to wash the insertion section C is collected in the liquid receiving recess 8 by the washing tank 2 without scattering to the outside, and is discharged by the drain pump. When the cleaning is completed, the liquid supply pump 5 and the liquid drainage pump are stopped, the drive motor 14 is reversed, the nozzle body 3 is lowered, the cleaning tank 2 is shortened downward, and the endoscope A is removed. Therefore,
When the nozzle body 3 is lowered and the cleaning tank 2 is shortened downward, the endoscope A can be inserted into the cleaning tank 2 by grasping only the operating part B and hanging the insertion part C. The part C can be cleaned without touching the operator's hands, clothes, other instruments, etc., these items are not contaminated, and the cleaning operation is easy.

As described above, the present invention includes a cleaning tank that is vertically expandable and a telescopic mechanism for vertically expanding and contracting the cleaning tank, and a nozzle for spouting cleaning liquid at the upper end of the cleaning tank. Therefore, with the cleaning tank shortened downward, grasp the operating part of the endoscope, insert the insertion part into the cleaning tank with the insertion part hanging down, and squirt the cleaning liquid from the upper end of the cleaning tank. While cleaning the insertion section of the endoscope, the cleaning tank can be extended upward to clean the insertion section. Therefore, the inserted endoscope can be cleaned without touching the inserted part of the endoscope after it has been pulled out of the body cavity, and mucus and dirt attached to the inserted part will not stick to the surgeon's hands, clothes, or other instruments, resulting in sanitary conditions. The cleaning operation of the endoscope is also extremely simple. Furthermore, since the cleaning tank extends upward together with the nozzle, there is no chance of the cleaning liquid scattering, which is very effective.
