Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To surely cut biopsy tissue in spite of a mechanical work difference at the position of an axial hole by enlarging the spindle hole of at least one of forceps cups in the direction almost orthogonal to the engagement surface of a pair of the forceps cups so as to be freely displaced from a spindle. SOLUTION: An oblong hole is piercingly provided in the direction almost orthogonal to the engagement surface A of the forceps cups 11 as the spindle hole through which the spindle 12 is inserted in one of the pair of forceps cups 11 in a biopsy forceps for endoscope. The spindle hole 13 of the other forceps cup 11 is formed into the thickness capable of inserting the spindle 12 without causing any play. The width of the spindle hole 13 is formed into the dimension capable of inserting the spindle 12 hardly causing play and the length thereof is extended on the both surfaces of the extension line of the surfaces A with the line of the engagement surfaces A between so as to be freely displaced from the spindle 12. As a result, even when the spindle hole 13 is positionally deviated, the spindle hole 13 formed in the oblong hole is deviated from the spindle 12 to always tightly close the pair of forceps cups 11.
