Endoscope light source apparatus and endoscope system

摘要

An endoscope light source apparatus includes a turret provided with a first optical filter and a second optical filter for transmitting an illuminating light, an instruction section in which an operation instruction of the turret is inputted, a drive section that drives the turret, a first detector that detects a position of the turret, a first detected portion for identifying a position of the first optical filter, a second detected portion for identifying a position of the second optical filter, a second detector that optically detects a position of the first or the second detected portion, and a turret control section that outputs a drive signal to the drive section to move the turret until the first or the second detected portion is detected by the second detector and stop the turret in response to the first or the second detected portion being detected.

主权项

1. An endoscope system that controls a turret provided with an optical filter for transmitting an illuminating light, and picks up an image of an object by the transmitted illuminating light, comprising:
light guide means for guiding the illuminating light; an image pickup device that picks up an image of an object illuminated with the illuminating light guided by the light guide means; photometry means that generates a photometric signal from an image pickup signal from the image pickup device and outputs the photometric signal; a turret provided with an optical filter for transmitting the illuminating light; a detector that detects a position of the turret; drive means that drives the turret; storage means that stores information for driving the turret; instruction means that performs instruction for causing the storage means to store information for driving the turret; and turret control means that outputs a drive signal for causing the turret to make one rotation to the drive means, and stores a detection value from the detector at which a photometric value from the photometry means becomes a maximum value while the turret makes the one rotation, into the storage means, by the instruction of the instruction means.
