ENDOSCOPE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240293017 titled 'ENDOSCOPE
The abstract describes an endoscope with an imaging device that includes a lens barrel and an imaging unit, a distal end part body with an insertion hole for the lens barrel, and an extending part from the proximal end surface of the distal end part body. The imaging device has an exposed part when the lens barrel is inserted, and the extending part faces at least the exposed part.
- The endoscope includes an imaging device with a lens barrel and an imaging unit.
- The distal end part body has an insertion hole for the lens barrel.
- An extending part is provided from the proximal end surface of the distal end part body.
- The imaging device has an exposed part when the lens barrel is inserted.
- The extending part is positioned to face at least the exposed part of the imaging device.

Original Abstract Submitted
an endoscope includes an imaging device that includes a lens barrel and an imaging unit, a distal end part body that has an insertion hole into which the lens barrel is inserted, and an extending part that is provided by being extended from a proximal end surface of the distal end part body, in which the imaging device includes, in a state in which the lens barrel is inserted into the insertion hole, an exposed part that is exposed from the proximal end surface of the distal end part body, and the extending part is disposed at a position facing at least the exposed part of the imaging device.
