Provided is a manufacturing method of a bending module that forms a plurality of joint members by press-processing sheet material, with each joint member having a joint member body, a connection protrusion and a wire guide protrusion having a wire guide hole formed at one side corner of the joint member body, and one connection protrusion is formed at another side corner of the joint member body. The wire guide protrusions are folded with respect to the joint member bodies; a joint member assembly is formed by arranging the plurality of joint members in parallel and connecting neighboring connection members to connect the joint members together; the joint member assembly are bent to a ring shape; and each joint member is connect to each other by welding corners thereof.

Endoscope bending module manufacturing method

An endoscope apparatus is provided. An endoscope apparatus includes a slave device including a plurality of drive motors configured to adjust insertion and insertion direction of an insertion tube of an endoscope, and a plurality of load sensors provided on the plurality of drive motors; and a master device including displacement sensors configured to generate signals for driving the drive motors according to an operator manipulation, and resistive motors configured to operate based on loads detected by the load sensors. The drive motors produce drive forces according to the signals generated by the displacement sensors and the resistive motors produce resistive forces corresponding to the operator manipulation based on the loads detected by the load sensors.

Endoscope apparatus with slave device and master device

A focusing lens assembly for a camera includes a shaft member disposed in parallel with an optical axis of the camera, a lens mounting member through which the shaft member penetrates and on which a focusing lens is mounted, a focusing lens driving motor configured to allow the lens mounting member to slide according to the shaft member, and a rotating unit configured to rotate the lens mounting member in a first direction in which the focusing lens is deviated from the optical axis or in a second direction in which the focusing lens is arranged on the optical axis according to an ON/OFF operation of the camera power.
