Abstract

See full text

A film takeup device for an endoscope comprises a takeup mechanism provided in an endoscope operation section; an operating wire section for transmitting the action of the takeup mechanism to a rolled film received in a distal end portion of an endoscope sheath, thereby feeding the rolled film one frame after another; and a wire length-adjusting unit disposed in the operating wire section and wherein, when the rolled film is attached to and removed from the distal end portion of the endoscope sheath, a connector for connecting the rolled film with the operating wire section is drawn out of the distal end portion of the endoscope sheath due to the wire length-adjusting unit being extended long, thereby enabling the rolled film to be easily and reliably connected to the operating wire section and removed therefrom.
