LIGHTING DEVICE FOR ENDOSCOPE AND ENDOSCOPE DEVICE
First Claim
1. A lighting device for an endoscope obtaining illumination light by using light emitted from a plurality of light sources, comprising:
- a first light source that uses a semiconductor light emitting device as an emission source;
a second light source that uses, as an emission source, another semiconductor light emitting device of a different emission wavelength from the first light source;
a wavelength converting member that is excited for light emission by light emitted from at least one of the first and second light sources; and
a light quantity changing unit that changes a light quantity ratio between the light emitted from the first light source and the light emitted from the second light source.

Abstract
A lighting device includes first and second light sources, a wavelength converting member and a light quantity ratio changing unit. A first light source uses a semiconductor light emitting device as an emission source. A second light source uses, as an emission source, a semiconductor light emitting device of a different emission wavelength from the first light source. A wavelength converting member is excited for light emission by light emitted from at least one of the first light source and the second light source. The light quantity ratio changing unit changing a light quantity ratio between the light emitted from the first light source and the light emitted from the second light source.
