ENDOSCOPE
First Claim
1. An endoscope comprising:
- an elongated insertion section having a distal end portion and a proximal end portion is inserted into a body cavity from the distal end portion;
a hard base section provided at the proximal end portion of the insertion section;
a transmission line which is extended from the inside of the insertion section to the base section and through which signals or light is transmitted;
a holding portion which is disposed in the base section and holds the transmission line while restricting movement of the insertion section and the base section in a direction perpendicular to an axial direction thereof; and
a connector portion which is provided in the base section and connects an end portion of the extended transmission line to an external device through the holding portion.

Abstract
An endoscope includes an elongated insertion section inserted into a body cavity from a distal end portion, a hard base section provided on a proximal end side of the insertion section, a transmission line, a holding portion, and a connector portion. The transmission line is extended from the inside of the insertion section to the base section and signals or light is transmitted through thereof. The holding portion is disposed in the base section and holds the transmission line while restricting movement of the insertion section and the base section in a direction perpendicular to an axial direction thereof. The connector portion is provided in the base section and connects an end portion of the extended transmission line to an external device through the holding portion.

8. An endoscope comprising:
-
an elongated insertion section having a distal end portion and a proximal end portion is inserted into a body cavity from the distal end portion; a hard base section which is provided at the proximal end portion of the insertion section and has a drive mechanism; a tubular body which is extended from the base section toward the proximal end side, has a connector portion connected with an external device at an extended end portion, and has a path formed therein; a transmission line which is arranged from the inside of the insertion section to the path of the tubular body to be connected with the connector portion and through which signals or light is transmitted; and a holding portion which is disposed in the base section and holds the transmission line while restricting movement of the insertion section and the base section in a direction perpendicular to an axial direction thereof and avoiding coming under an influence of noise when the noise is produced from the drive mechanism. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12)
