Abstract
An endoscope holder includes a holder body, a hanger and a slide member. The hanger is pivotably attached to the holder body to move between a first angle position and a second angle position. The slide member is supported on the holder body. The slide member is configured to move slidably between a first position and a second position. At the first position, the slide member restricts pivoting of the hanger from the first angle position to the second angle position. At the second position, the slide member permits pivoting of the hanger from the first angle position to the second angle position. When the hanger is at the first angle position, the hanger is configured to support an endoscope by hanging the endoscope on the hanger. When the hanger is at the second angle position, the hanger is configured to not support the endoscope by hanging.
