A medical device operable to obtain images of an internal cavity of a patient, including a handle; a flexible tube including a first section having a first radial cross-section area and a second section distal of the first section and having a second radial cross-section area smaller than the first radial cross-section area, the second section having an outer surface; a bending section extending from the flexible tube and including a proximal end segment, a distal end segment, and intermediate segments between the proximal end segment and the distal end segment, the intermediate segments hingedly connected to each other, the proximal end segment including a proximal end segment peripheral wall defining an internal space, wherein the second section is positioned at least partly in the internal space; and a camera assembly supported by the bending section and operable to generate images of distal views.

Articulated tip part for an endoscope

A medical device operable to obtain images of an internal cavity of a patient, including a handle; a flexible tube; a front end cap housing a camera assembly; a bending section extending from the flexible tube and including a proximal end segment and a distal end segment; a peripheral wall having an inner surface defining an internal space and including a cavity extending radially outwardly from the inner surface; a member having an outer surface and positioned at least partly in the internal space with the cavity overlapping the outer surface; and a protrusion of a hardened adhesive bonded to the outer surface of the member and extending into the cavity of the peripheral wall, wherein the member is one of, and the peripheral wall is comprised by another of, the flexible tube, the proximal end segment, the distal end segment, or the front end cap.

An endoscope made by a method for fixation of portions of steering wire of the endoscope, the steering wire having a first portion, a second portion, and a third portion, the method including positioning the second wire portion and the third wire portion of the steering wire adjacent to each other, applying an adhesive, at least partly enclosing the second wire portion, the third wire portion, and the adhesive with a crimp shell, and applying a crimping force to the crimp shell to crimp the crimp shell, the second wire portion, and the third wire portion to thereby fixate the second wire portion in relation to the third wire portion.

Method for fixation of a wire portion of an endoscope, and an endoscope

A handle for endoscope including a handle housing, an operating member () accommodated in said handle housing, at least one guide tube () adapted for surrounding and supporting at least one pull wire (), and an anchoring block (). The anchoring block () comprises at least one bore () adapted for insertion of said at least one guide tube () and at least one inlet passage in fluid communication with said at least one bore.

Handle for an endoscope

A method for manufacture of a tip part for an endoscope including providing a camera assembly with an image sensor and a circuit board; providing a distal end segment having a distal end and a circumferential wall enclosing a spacing; providing an exterior housing having a circumferential wall enclosing a spacing; inserting the distal end of the camera assembly in the spacing of the exterior housing; positioning the proximal end of the exterior housing adjacent to the distal end of the distal end segment; injecting an adhesive into the spacing of the distal end segment so that at least parts of the circuit board are embedded in the adhesive; and allowing or causing the adhesive to harden; whereby the distal end segment, camera assembly and exterior housing form an assembled tip part of an endoscope attached to each other by means of the adhesive.

Method for manufacture of a tip part and a tip part for an endoscope

A handle for an endoscope has a handle housing, an operating member () accommodated in said handle, at least one pull wire () attached to said operating member (), and at least one guide tube () surrounding and supporting said at least one pull wire (). The guide tube () is fixed with respect to said handle housing at at least a first location. A direction guide () adapted for directing the free end of the pull wire () in a desired direction during assembly of the endoscope is provided at said first location.

An endoscope made by a method for fixation of portions of steering wire of the endoscope, the steering wire having a first portion, a second portion, and a third portion, the method including positioning the second wire portion and the third wire portion of the steering wire adjacent to each other, applying an adhesive, at least partly enclosing the second wire portion, the third wire portion, and the adhesive with a crimp shell, and crimping the crimp shell, the second wire portion, and the third wire portion to thereby fixate the second wire portion in relation to the third wire portion.

A handle () for an endoscope (), the handle () having a proximal end, a distal end, a front and a back, and the handle () including a gripping section () separated by a transition section () from an operation section (). The gipping section () surface is provided with grooves. The gripping section has a cross-section with mirror symmetry and varying radius of curvature, with the minimum radius (r) of curvature at the front of the handle ().

An endoscope made by a method for fixation of portions of a steering wire of the endoscope, the steering wire having a first portion, a second portion, and a third portion, the first portion connected to a steerable tip and the second portion connected to a control element, the method including pulling the third portion so as to tension the steering wire and inserting a pin with a wire guide into a pin spacing so that so that the second portion is positioned in the wire guide and is clamped between the pin and at least one wall of the control element, whereby the pin and the second portion are fixated to the control element to thereby maintain a wire tension between the first and second portions.
