<p>An endoscope washer disinfector and a medicine control method used for the same are provided to restrain medicinal fluid for washing and disinfecting an endoscope from being scattered and to deliver the exact amount of medicinal fluid. In an endoscope washer disinfector(1) for supplying medicinal fluid from a medicinal fluid tank(11) to a washing tub(5), a first supply passage(16) makes the medicinal fluid tank and presses(22,19,19a,17) communicate with each other. A second supply passage(12) makes the washing tub and the medicinal fluid tank communicate with each other. The internal pressure of the medicinal fluid tank is opened to the air by exhausters(17,28,27). A detector(13) detects the quantity of medicinal fluid passing through the second supply passage and outputs a detected value correspondent to the quantity of medicinal fluid. A unit starts to supply the medicinal fluid from the medicinal fluid tank to the washing tub through the second supply passage by pressurizing the inside of the medicinal fluid tank through the first supply passage by driving the press. A judging unit judges whether the quantity of medicinal fluid passing through the second supply passage reaches a set value or not, on the basis of the detected value output from the detector. A finishing unit finishes supplying the medicinal fluid toward the washing tub by opening the internal pressure of the medicinal fluid tank to the air by driving the exhauster.</p> |
