ENDOSCOPE WITH AN ENDOSCOPE HEAD AND AN ALBARRAN LEVER THAT CAN BE USED ON THE ENDOSCOPE HEAD AND CAN BE RELEASED FROM SAME

摘要

The invention relates to an endoscope comprising an endoscope head (1) having a working channel (11) for guiding micro-tools, and comprising an Albarran lever (2) which can be used on the endoscope head (1) and can be released from same, said Albarran lever having a tool guide surface (20), on which a tool that can be led through the working channel can come into contact in order to be deflected in the lateral direction of the endoscope head. An Albarran lever arrangement space (A) is bounded by two flank sections (12, 13), extending in the distal direction (12, 13), of the endoscope head (1). In one (13) of the flank sections (12, 13), an Albarran lever pivot shaft (15) is mounted, from which a shaft section (151) projects to the Albarran lever arrangement space (A) with a length (X). The Albarran lever (2) has a shaft insertion hole (21) for inserting the shaft section (151) and has a width (a) in a direction that is parallel to the shaft insertion hole (21), said width being only a measurement of the movement gap less than the width of the Albarran lever arrangement space (A) in a direction that is parallel to the shaft section (151). The movement gap is a gap that prevents the Albarran lever (2) from rubbing against the flank sections (12, 13) during pivoting in the Albarran lever arrangement space (A).
