Description

本発明は、内視鏡装置に関する。   The present invention relates to an endoscope apparatus.

撮像素子と、光軸方向に移動可能な可動レンズを含む撮像光学系と、可動レンズを移動させるためのアクチュエータとが挿入部の先端部に設けられ、可動レンズを移動させることによって変倍やフォーカシングを行う内視鏡装置が知られている(例えば、特許文献1、2参照)。   An imaging optical system including an imaging element, a movable lens movable in the optical axis direction, and an actuator for moving the movable lens are provided at the distal end of the insertion portion, and zooming and focusing are performed by moving the movable lens. Endoscope apparatuses that perform the above are known (see, for example, Patent Documents 1 and 2).

特開2001−208951号公報JP 2001-208951 A 特開2004−16337号公報JP 2004-16337 A

挿入部の先端部に設けられるアクチュエータは、極めて小型であり、概して高価である。そのため、例えば可動レンズの移動機構や可動レンズを含む撮像光学系に不具合が生じた場合などには、アクチュエータの再利用が望まれる。   The actuator provided at the distal end of the insertion portion is extremely small and generally expensive. Therefore, for example, when a malfunction occurs in the moving mechanism of the movable lens or the imaging optical system including the movable lens, it is desired to reuse the actuator.

特許文献2に記載された内視鏡装置では、アクチュエータによってカム環が回転され、カム環の回転に伴って可動レンズが移動される。アクチュエータを保持する小径アクチュエータハウジングは、可動レンズ及びカム環を保持するレンズハウジングとは別体に構成されており、小径アクチュエータハウジングはレンズハウジングと一体の大径アクチュエータハウジングに挿抜可能に構成されている。かかる構成によれば、可動レンズの移動機構や可動レンズを含む撮像光学系に不具合が生じた場合などに、小径アクチュエータハウジングをレンズハウジングと一体の大径アクチュエータハウジングから分離し、アクチュエータの再利用が可能となる。   In the endoscope apparatus described in Patent Document 2, the cam ring is rotated by the actuator, and the movable lens is moved along with the rotation of the cam ring. The small-diameter actuator housing that holds the actuator is configured separately from the lens housing that holds the movable lens and the cam ring, and the small-diameter actuator housing is configured so that it can be inserted into and removed from the large-diameter actuator housing integrated with the lens housing. . According to such a configuration, when a malfunction occurs in the moving mechanism of the movable lens or the imaging optical system including the movable lens, the small-diameter actuator housing is separated from the large-diameter actuator housing integrated with the lens housing, and the actuator can be reused. It becomes possible.

しかし、小径アクチュエータハウジングと大径アクチュエータハウジングとの間には、アクチュエータの反力を受けとめるに足る十分な接合強度が必要となる。上記のとおりアクチュエータは極めて小型であり、アクチュエータを保持する小径アクチュエータハウジングもまた極めて小型である。したがって、挿抜可能な嵌合による小径アクチュエータハウジングと大径アクチュエータハウジングとの接合では、両者の間の接合強度が不足して可動レンズの移動に支障をきたす虞がある。そこで、小径アクチュエータハウジングを大径アクチュエータハウジングに圧入して両者の間の接合強度を高めるとすると、両者の分離性が低下してアクチュエータの再利用が困難となる。   However, a sufficient joint strength is required between the small-diameter actuator housing and the large-diameter actuator housing to receive the reaction force of the actuator. As described above, the actuator is extremely small, and the small-diameter actuator housing that holds the actuator is also extremely small. Therefore, when the small-diameter actuator housing and the large-diameter actuator housing are joined by an insertable / removable fitting, there is a possibility that the joint strength between the two is insufficient and the movement of the movable lens may be hindered. Therefore, if the small-diameter actuator housing is press-fitted into the large-diameter actuator housing to increase the joint strength between the two, the separability between the two decreases, making it difficult to reuse the actuator.

本発明は、上述した事情に鑑みなされたものであり、アクチュエータの再利用が容易な内視鏡装置を提供することを目的としている。   The present invention has been made in view of the above-described circumstances, and an object thereof is to provide an endoscope apparatus in which an actuator can be easily reused.

In the illustrated example, the actuator 12 is a rotary motor. The drive member 13 is a cam shaft.

駆動部材13は、光軸A1と平行な回転軸A2上に配置され、第二保持部材15の鏡胴部31に併設された筒部35に回転可能に収容されている。駆動部材13の外周面には、可動レンズ20aを光軸方向に前後移動させるためのカム溝40a、及び可動レンズ20bを光軸方向に前後移動させるためのカム溝40bが形成されている。   The drive member 13 is disposed on a rotation axis A2 parallel to the optical axis A1, and is rotatably accommodated in a cylindrical portion 35 provided alongside the lens barrel portion 31 of the second holding member 15. A cam groove 40 a for moving the movable lens 20 a back and forth in the optical axis direction and a cam groove 40 b for moving the movable lens 20 b back and forth in the optical axis direction are formed on the outer peripheral surface of the drive member 13.

アクチュエータ12は、筒状に形成された第一保持部材14に収容されて保持されている。アクチュエータ12の出力軸41を覆う第一保持部材14の先端部側の内周面には段差面16が設けられており、アクチュエータ12は、その先端面17の縁部を段差面16に当接させて位置決めされ、第一保持部材14に接着固定されている。また、アクチュエータ12の基端部に設けられた結線部18を覆う第一保持部材14の基端部には接着剤が充填されており、それにより結線部18が保護されている。   The actuator 12 is accommodated and held in a first holding member 14 formed in a cylindrical shape. A stepped surface 16 is provided on the inner peripheral surface of the first holding member 14 covering the output shaft 41 of the actuator 12 on the distal end side. The actuator 12 abuts the edge of the distal end surface 17 on the stepped surface 16. The first holding member 14 is bonded and fixed. In addition, the base end portion of the first holding member 14 that covers the connection portion 18 provided at the base end portion of the actuator 12 is filled with an adhesive, thereby protecting the connection portion 18.

そして、第一保持部材14は第二保持部材15に接合されている。第二保持部材15に接合された第一保持部材14に保持されているアクチュエータ12の出力軸41は、回転軸A2上に配置されて駆動部材13と同軸とされ、駆動部材13の基端部42に連結されている。   The first holding member 14 is joined to the second holding member 15. The output shaft 41 of the actuator 12 held by the first holding member 14 joined to the second holding member 15 is disposed on the rotation axis A <b> 2 and is coaxial with the driving member 13. 42.

第二保持部材15の鏡胴部31と筒部35とは連通しており、鏡胴部31に収容されている可動レンズ枠30a,30bは、筒部35に収容されている駆動部材13にそれぞれ係合している。   The lens barrel portion 31 and the tube portion 35 of the second holding member 15 communicate with each other, and the movable lens frames 30 a and 30 b accommodated in the lens barrel portion 31 are connected to the drive member 13 accommodated in the tube portion 35. Each is engaged.

駆動部材13に係合する可動レンズ枠30aの係合部36a、及び駆動部材13に係合する可動レンズ枠30bの係合部36bは、いずれも筒状に形成されており、筒状に形成された係合部36a,36bには駆動部材13がそれぞれ挿通されている。それにより、可動レンズ枠30a,30bは、駆動部材13に沿って移動可能に、つまりは駆動部材13が位置する回転軸A2と平行な光軸A1の延在方向に移動可能に支持される。   The engaging portion 36a of the movable lens frame 30a that engages with the driving member 13 and the engaging portion 36b of the movable lens frame 30b that engages with the driving member 13 are both formed in a cylindrical shape, and are formed in a cylindrical shape. The drive member 13 is inserted through the engaged portions 36a and 36b. Accordingly, the movable lens frames 30a and 30b are supported so as to be movable along the drive member 13, that is, movable in the extending direction of the optical axis A1 parallel to the rotation axis A2 where the drive member 13 is located.

そして、係合部36aには駆動部材13のカム溝40aに係合するカムピン43aが、また係合部36bには駆動部材13のカム溝40bに係合するカムピン43bがそれぞれ設けられている。   The engaging portion 36a is provided with a cam pin 43a that engages with the cam groove 40a of the driving member 13, and the engaging portion 36b is provided with a cam pin 43b that engages with the cam groove 40b of the driving member 13.

アクチュエータ12の出力軸41に連結された駆動部材13は、アクチュエータ12によって回転される。駆動部材13の回転に伴い、カム溝40aにカムピン43aを係合させている可動レンズ枠30a、及びカム溝40bにカムピン43bを係合させている可動レンズ枠30bは、光軸方向にそれぞれ前後移動される。それより、可動レンズ20a,20bが光軸方向にそれぞれ前後移動され、変倍やフォーカシングが行われる。   The drive member 13 connected to the output shaft 41 of the actuator 12 is rotated by the actuator 12. As the drive member 13 rotates, the movable lens frame 30a having the cam pin 43a engaged with the cam groove 40a and the movable lens frame 30b having the cam pin 43b engaged with the cam groove 40b are respectively moved back and forth in the optical axis direction. Moved. As a result, the movable lenses 20a and 20b are moved back and forth in the optical axis direction to perform zooming and focusing.

以上のように構成された内視鏡装置1において、アクチュエータ12を保持する第一保持部材14と、可動レンズ20a,20b及び駆動部材13を保持する第二保持部材15とは分離可能に互いに接着されている。そして、アクチュエータ12と駆動部材13もまた分離可能に互いに連結されている。   In the endoscope apparatus 1 configured as described above, the first holding member 14 that holds the actuator 12 and the second holding member 15 that holds the movable lenses 20a and 20b and the driving member 13 are separably bonded to each other. Has been. The actuator 12 and the drive member 13 are also detachably connected to each other.

図3は、アクチュエータ12と駆動部材13との連結部分の構成を示す。   FIG. 3 shows a configuration of a connecting portion between the actuator 12 and the drive member 13.

アクチュエータ12の出力軸41と、出力軸41と同軸に配置された駆動部材13の基端部42とは、連結部材43を介して連結されている。   The output shaft 41 of the actuator 12 and the base end portion 42 of the drive member 13 arranged coaxially with the output shaft 41 are connected via a connecting member 43.

連結部材43は、出力軸41に固定され、図示の例では、出力軸41に外嵌する略円環状の固定部44と、固定部44から径方向に突出した突部45とを有している。そして、駆動部材13の基端部42には、連結部材43が内嵌する凹部46が形成されている。連結部材43が凹部46に嵌合することによって、アクチュエータ12の出力軸41と駆動部材13の基端部42とは、回転伝達可能に且つ分離可能に互いに連結される。なお、連結部材43は、図示の形状に限られるものではなく、全体として出力軸41に垂直な断面において非円形状に形成されていればよい。   The connecting member 43 is fixed to the output shaft 41. In the example shown in the figure, the connecting member 43 includes a substantially annular fixing portion 44 that is fitted on the output shaft 41, and a protrusion 45 that protrudes in the radial direction from the fixing portion 44. Yes. A recess 46 into which the connecting member 43 is fitted is formed in the base end portion 42 of the drive member 13. When the connecting member 43 is fitted into the recess 46, the output shaft 41 of the actuator 12 and the base end portion 42 of the driving member 13 are connected to each other so as to be able to transmit rotation and to be separated. The connecting member 43 is not limited to the shape shown in the drawing, and may be formed in a noncircular shape in a cross section perpendicular to the output shaft 41 as a whole.

図4は、第一保持部材14と第二保持部材15との接合部分の構成を示す。   FIG. 4 shows a configuration of a joint portion between the first holding member 14 and the second holding member 15.

アクチュエータ12を保持する第一保持部材14において、アクチュエータ12の出力軸41を覆う端部は、第二保持部材15と接合される接合部37とされている。また可動レンズ20a,20b及び駆動部材13を保持する第二保持部材15において、出力軸41が連結される駆動部材13の基端部42を覆う端部は、第一保持部材14と接合される接合部38とされている。   In the first holding member 14 that holds the actuator 12, an end portion that covers the output shaft 41 of the actuator 12 is a joining portion 37 that is joined to the second holding member 15. Further, in the second holding member 15 that holds the movable lenses 20 a and 20 b and the driving member 13, the end portion that covers the base end portion 42 of the driving member 13 to which the output shaft 41 is coupled is joined to the first holding member 14. The joint portion 38 is used.

接合部37,38は、いずれも筒状に形成されており、互いに嵌合可能とされている。なお、図示の例では、第一保持部材14の接合部37が第二保持部材15の接合部38に外嵌する構成とされているが、第二保持部材15の接合部38が第一保持部材14の接合部37に外嵌する構成とすることもできる。   The joint portions 37 and 38 are both formed in a cylindrical shape and can be fitted to each other. In the illustrated example, the joint portion 37 of the first holding member 14 is configured to be fitted around the joint portion 38 of the second holding member 15, but the joint portion 38 of the second holding member 15 is the first holding member. It can also be set as the structure fitted to the junction part 37 of the member 14. FIG.

そして、嵌合した接合部37,38が分離可能に互いに接着される。接合部37,38の嵌合に加えて接合部37,38を接着することにより、接合部37,38の間の接合強度を高めることができ、アクチュエータ12の反力を受けとめるに足る接合強度を接合部37,38の間に確保することができる。   And the joined joint parts 37 and 38 are mutually adhere | attached so that isolation | separation is possible. By bonding the joint portions 37 and 38 in addition to the fitting of the joint portions 37 and 38, the joint strength between the joint portions 37 and 38 can be increased, and the joint strength sufficient to receive the reaction force of the actuator 12 can be obtained. It can be secured between the joint portions 37 and 38.

そして、例えば可動レンズ20a,20bの移動機構や可動レンズ20a,20bを含む撮像光学系11に不具合が生じた場合などには、接合部37,38を接着している接着剤ADを除去し、アクチュエータ12を保持している第一保持部材14を、可動レンズ20a,20b及び駆動部材13を保持している第二保持部材15から分離することにより、アクチュエータ12の再利用が可能となる。   For example, when a malfunction occurs in the imaging optical system 11 including the moving mechanism of the movable lenses 20a and 20b and the movable lenses 20a and 20b, the adhesive AD that bonds the joint portions 37 and 38 is removed. By separating the first holding member 14 holding the actuator 12 from the second holding member 15 holding the movable lenses 20a and 20b and the driving member 13, the actuator 12 can be reused.

接合部37,38を接着する接着剤ADの除去を容易とする観点から、第一保持部材14の接合部37が第二保持部材15の接合部38に外嵌する図示の例において、接着剤ADは、外側の接合部37の先端に沿って塗布されている。外側の接合部37の先端に沿って塗布された接着剤ADは、接合部37,38の接着後も露呈し、例えば接合部37の内周面と接合部38の外周面との間に塗布されている場合に比較して容易に除去可能である。   From the viewpoint of facilitating removal of the adhesive AD adhering the joints 37 and 38, the adhesive in the illustrated example in which the joint 37 of the first holding member 14 is fitted around the joint 38 of the second holding member 15. AD is applied along the tip of the outer joint 37. The adhesive AD applied along the tip of the outer joint portion 37 is exposed even after the joint portions 37 and 38 are bonded. For example, the adhesive AD is applied between the inner peripheral surface of the joint portion 37 and the outer peripheral surface of the joint portion 38. It can be easily removed compared to the case where it is used.

接着剤ADは、例えば溶剤や熱や光といった外部刺激によって解体可能な接着剤が好適に用いられる。上記のように、外側の接合部37の先端に沿って塗布されることによって接合部37,38の接着後も露呈している接着剤ADに対して、外部刺激を容易に付与することができ、接着剤ADを容易に解体除去することができる。   As the adhesive AD, for example, an adhesive that can be disassembled by an external stimulus such as a solvent, heat, or light is preferably used. As described above, external stimulation can be easily applied to the adhesive AD that is exposed even after the bonding of the bonding portions 37 and 38 by being applied along the tip of the outer bonding portion 37. The adhesive AD can be easily disassembled and removed.

さらに、接着剤ADによる接合部37,38の接合強度を高める観点から、内側の接合部38の後端部に、外側の接合部37の先端面39aと嵌合方向に対向する段差面39bが設けられており、外側の接合部37の先端面39aと内側の接合部38の段差面39bとが接着剤ADによって接着されている。一般に、接着では接着層の厚みが大きくなる程に欠陥や内部応力の増加に起因して接合強度が低下する傾向にあるところ、上記構成によれば、対向する先端面39aと段差面39bとの間で接着層の厚みを十分に小さくすることができ、接合部37,38の接合強度を高めることができる。   Further, from the viewpoint of increasing the bonding strength of the bonding portions 37, 38 by the adhesive AD, a step surface 39b facing the front end surface 39a of the outer bonding portion 37 in the fitting direction is formed at the rear end portion of the inner bonding portion 38. The front end surface 39a of the outer joint portion 37 and the step surface 39b of the inner joint portion 38 are bonded by an adhesive AD. Generally, in bonding, as the thickness of the adhesive layer increases, the bonding strength tends to decrease due to an increase in defects and internal stress. According to the above configuration, the tip surface 39a and the step surface 39b are opposed to each other. The thickness of the adhesive layer can be sufficiently reduced, and the bonding strength of the bonding portions 37 and 38 can be increased.

また、内側の接合部38の後端部に段差面39bを設けることにより、この段差面39bと外側の接合部37の先端面39aとを当接させてアクチュエータ12を駆動部材13に対して位置決めし、アクチュエータ12の出力軸41と駆動部材13の基端部42とを適切に連結させることが可能となる。   Further, by providing a step surface 39 b at the rear end portion of the inner joint portion 38, the step surface 39 b is brought into contact with the tip surface 39 a of the outer joint portion 37 to position the actuator 12 with respect to the drive member 13. Thus, the output shaft 41 of the actuator 12 and the base end portion 42 of the drive member 13 can be appropriately connected.

なお、上述した例では、第二保持部材15に別途装着されるハウジング34に撮像素子10が保持されるものとして説明したが、例えばプリズム23が省略されて撮像素子10が光軸A1上に配置される場合などにおいて、第二保持部材15が撮像素子10を保持する構成とすることもでき、その場合には、撮像素子10に不具合が生じた場合にも、第一保持部材14を第二保持部材15から分離することによってアクチュエータ12の再利用が可能となる。   In the above-described example, the imaging device 10 is described as being held by the housing 34 that is separately attached to the second holding member 15. However, for example, the prism 23 is omitted and the imaging device 10 is disposed on the optical axis A1. In such a case, the second holding member 15 may be configured to hold the image sensor 10, and in this case, the first holding member 14 may be set to the second even when a malfunction occurs in the image sensor 10. By separating from the holding member 15, the actuator 12 can be reused.

図5は、本発明の実施形態を説明するための、内視鏡装置の挿入部先端部の他の例の構成を示す。なお、上述した内視鏡装置1と共通する要素には、共通の符号を付することにより説明を省略し又は簡略する。   FIG. 5 shows a configuration of another example of the distal end portion of the insertion portion of the endoscope apparatus for explaining the embodiment of the present invention. In addition, description is abbreviate | omitted or simplified by attaching | subjecting a common code | symbol to the element which is common in the endoscope apparatus 1 mentioned above.

図5に示す例では、第一保持部材14の接合部37及び第二保持部材15の接合部38は、いずれも円筒状に形成されており、互いに嵌合可能とされている。そして、内側の接合部38の外周面には突起50が設けられており、外側の接合部37には突起50を受容する切り欠き51が設けられている。図示の例では、突起50及び切り欠き51はそれぞれ一つとされているが、接合部37及び接合部38の周方向に間隔をあけて複数設けられていてもよい。   In the example shown in FIG. 5, the joint portion 37 of the first holding member 14 and the joint portion 38 of the second holding member 15 are both formed in a cylindrical shape and can be fitted to each other. A protrusion 50 is provided on the outer peripheral surface of the inner joint portion 38, and a notch 51 for receiving the protrusion 50 is provided on the outer joint portion 37. In the illustrated example, one protrusion 50 and one notch 51 are provided, but a plurality of protrusions 50 and a plurality of notches 51 may be provided at intervals in the circumferential direction of the joint portion 37 and the joint portion 38.

切り欠き51は、接合部37の先端面39aから接合部37の後端側に向けて軸方向に延在する案内部52と、案内部52から接合部37の周方向に延在する係止部53とを有している。接合部37,38の嵌合に伴い、突起50は案内部52を通して切り欠き51に受容される。そして、接合部37,38の相対回転に伴い、突起50は切り欠き51内の係止部53に配置される。   The notch 51 includes a guide portion 52 that extends in the axial direction from the front end surface 39 a of the joint portion 37 toward the rear end side of the joint portion 37, and a latch that extends from the guide portion 52 in the circumferential direction of the joint portion 37. Part 53. As the joint portions 37 and 38 are fitted, the protrusion 50 is received in the notch 51 through the guide portion 52. Then, with the relative rotation of the joint portions 37 and 38, the protrusion 50 is disposed on the locking portion 53 in the notch 51.

突起50が係止部53に配置された状態で、接合部37,38は分離可能に互いに接着される。接合部37,38の嵌合に加えて接合部37,38を接着することにより、接合部37,38の間の接合強度を高められる。   In a state where the protrusion 50 is disposed on the locking portion 53, the joint portions 37 and 38 are detachably bonded to each other. By bonding the joint portions 37 and 38 in addition to the fitting of the joint portions 37 and 38, the joint strength between the joint portions 37 and 38 can be increased.

そして、接合部37,38が接着されることにより、接合部37,38の相対回転が阻止され、突起50が係止部53に保持される。係止部53に保持された突起50は、周方向に延在する係止部53によって、周方向と交差する方向である接合部37,38の嵌合方向への移動を阻止され、接合部37,38は互いに抜け止めされる。それにより、接合部37,38の間の接合強度をより高められる。   Then, by bonding the joint portions 37 and 38, relative rotation of the joint portions 37 and 38 is prevented, and the protrusion 50 is held by the locking portion 53. The protrusion 50 held by the locking portion 53 is prevented from moving in the fitting direction of the joint portions 37 and 38 that intersect the circumferential direction by the locking portion 53 extending in the circumferential direction. 37 and 38 are prevented from coming off from each other. Thereby, the joint strength between the joint portions 37 and 38 can be further increased.

接合部37、38の接着箇所は、例えば、上述した内視鏡装置1と同様に接合部37の先端面39aと接合部38の段差面39bとすることができる。また、本例においては、接合部37の切り欠き51の側面と切り欠き51に露呈する接合部38の外周面及び突起50とを接着するようにしてもよく、特に、切り欠き51を接着剤で充填することが好ましい。切り欠き51を接着剤で充填することにより、切り欠き51内での突起50の移動をより確実に阻止し、接合部37,38の間の接合強度をさらに高められる。切り欠き51に充填された接着剤は、接合部37,38の接着後も露呈し、比較的容易に除去可能である。   The bonding locations of the bonding portions 37 and 38 can be, for example, the tip surface 39a of the bonding portion 37 and the stepped surface 39b of the bonding portion 38 as in the endoscope device 1 described above. Further, in this example, the side surface of the notch 51 of the joint portion 37 and the outer peripheral surface of the joint portion 38 exposed to the notch 51 and the protrusion 50 may be bonded. In particular, the notch 51 is bonded to the adhesive. It is preferable to fill with. By filling the notch 51 with the adhesive, the movement of the protrusion 50 in the notch 51 can be more reliably prevented, and the joining strength between the joining portions 37 and 38 can be further increased. The adhesive filled in the notch 51 is exposed even after the bonding portions 37 and 38 are bonded, and can be removed relatively easily.

図6は、図5の内視鏡装置の挿入部先端部の変形例の構成を示す。   FIG. 6 shows a configuration of a modified example of the distal end portion of the insertion portion of the endoscope apparatus of FIG.

図6に示す例では、係止部53に接合部37の先端側から後端側に向けて傾斜した傾斜面54が設けられている。接合部37と接合部38との相対回転に伴い、突起50は係止部53に配置されるが、その際、突起50が傾斜面54を摺動する。それにより、接合部37は接合部38との嵌合方向に付勢され、接合部37の先端面39aが接合部38の段差面39bに押し当てられる。   In the example shown in FIG. 6, the locking portion 53 is provided with an inclined surface 54 that is inclined from the front end side to the rear end side of the joint portion 37. With the relative rotation between the joint portion 37 and the joint portion 38, the protrusion 50 is disposed on the locking portion 53. At this time, the protrusion 50 slides on the inclined surface 54. Accordingly, the joint portion 37 is urged in the fitting direction with the joint portion 38, and the tip end surface 39 a of the joint portion 37 is pressed against the step surface 39 b of the joint portion 38.

先端面39aが段差面39bに押し当てられることにより、突起50と傾斜面54との間や先端面39aと段差面39bとの間に、接合部37,38の相対回転を阻止する摩擦力が生じる。それにより、接合部37,38の間の接合強度をさらに高められる。   When the tip surface 39a is pressed against the step surface 39b, a frictional force that prevents the relative rotation of the joint portions 37 and 38 between the protrusion 50 and the inclined surface 54 or between the tip surface 39a and the step surface 39b is generated. Arise. Thereby, the joint strength between the joint portions 37 and 38 can be further increased.

接合部37、38の接着箇所は、例えば、接合部37の先端面39aと接合部38の段差面39bであってもよいし、接合部37の切り欠き51の側面と切り欠き51に露呈する接合部38の外周面及び突起50であってもよい。なお、接合部37,38の嵌合、及び突起50と傾斜面54との間や先端面39aと段差面39bとの間に生じる摩擦力によって、接合部37,38の間の接合に十分な強度が得られる場合には、接合部37,38の接着を省いてもよい。   The bonding locations of the joint portions 37 and 38 may be, for example, the front end surface 39 a of the joint portion 37 and the stepped surface 39 b of the joint portion 38, or exposed to the side surface of the notch 51 and the notch 51 of the joint portion 37. The outer peripheral surface of the joining portion 38 and the protrusion 50 may be used. In addition, it is sufficient for the joining between the joining parts 37 and 38 by the frictional force generated between the fitting of the joining parts 37 and 38 and between the protrusion 50 and the inclined surface 54 or between the tip surface 39a and the stepped surface 39b. When strength is obtained, the bonding of the joint portions 37 and 38 may be omitted.
