Abstract

La présente invention concerne un endoscope doté d'une pluralité de câbles de direction pour manœuvrer la section de courbure, dont certains sont positionnés sur les parois internes de la section de courbure à l'aide de guides de câble. Des stoppeurs de câble placés dans la dernière vertèbre (segment articulé proximal) de la section de courbure sont utilisés pour fixer le câble près de la pointe distale au niveau d'une première extrémité, et aux boutons situés dans la poignée de l'endoscope au niveau de l'autre extrémité. Selon un mode de réalisation, l'un des stoppeurs de câble se situe de telle sorte qu'il est bridé sur l'extrémité proximale de la pointe distale. Cette conception laisse plus d'espace libre pour le diamètre interne de la dernière vertèbre et ne provoque pas ni obstruction ni interférence dans le bon fonctionnement d'autres composants, tels que canal de travail avant, pendant le mouvement des quatre câbles de direction pour manœuvrer la section de courbure.
