PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To solve such a problem that, when a temperature change occurs in a piezoelectric actuator, it is impossible to inhibit a change in characteristics of the piezoelectric actuator. ! SOLUTION: An optical scanning type endoscope comprises: an optical fiber exiting light from an exit end; an oscillation member that is adhesively fixed to a part of a tip end of the optical fiber and oscillates the exit end so as to scan the light exited from the exit end at a prescribed trajectory; a support member that supports the oscillation member and is disposed to enclose the oscillation member; and a first heat generating element provided inside the support member for controlling the temperature of the support member. This configuration can control the temperature of the support member so as to control the temperature of the oscillation member. ! COPYRIGHT: (C)2015,JPO&INPIT |
