Endoscope probe has cap fixed at distal probe end which secures cover plate against movement over distal end of optical lumen whereby cover plate at its peripheral edge is partially overlapped by cap

摘要

Endoscope probe has longitudinal running optical lumen (1) in the probe, whose distal end is locked outwards with a translucent cover plate. A cap is fixed at the distal probe end, which secures the cover plate against a movement over the distal end of the optical lumen. The cover plate at its peripheral edge (4) is partially overlapped by the cap.
