Generally, an endoscope has a structure in which other parts, such as a forceps opening member, are attached to the main body (for example, Japanese Utility Model Application Publication No. 134590/1983), but the attachment means is airtight using adhesive. It is designed to be fixed to Incidentally, in recent years, sealed endoscopes having a waterproof structure as a whole have been provided, and there has been a strong demand for airtightness, especially at the mounting portion. For example, when the above-mentioned members have different coefficients of thermal expansion, there is a problem in that the adhesive is likely to crack or crack due to the difference in stress between the two members due to temperature changes.

By the way, as the adhesive used conventionally, either an epoxy adhesive or a silicone adhesive is used. However, it has been found that although epoxy adhesives have strong adhesive strength, they tend to crack or crack when subjected to stress differences between the two members due to temperature changes, resulting in a decrease in waterproof performance. On the other hand, silicone-based adhesives are relatively elastic, and when used, they do not easily crack or crack even when subjected to stress differences between the two components due to temperature changes, and have good waterproof performance, but on the other hand, adhesive strength It was found that the problem was that the mounting strength was low.

FIG. 3 shows another embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment shows a structure in which a contact pin 31 provided on the outer peripheral surface of a connector 30 of a light guide cable is fixed. That is, a hole 33 passing through the outer wall 32 of the connector 30 is provided, and the contact pin 31 is inserted into the outer wall 32 of the connector 30.
An insulating cylindrical member 34 that fits into the hole 33 is fitted into the hole 33 and fixed by adhesive. That is, first, the joint between the inner wall of the hole 33 and the outer periphery of the insulating cylindrical member 34 is adhesively fixed with a first adhesive 35 made of, for example, an epoxy adhesive, which has poor elasticity but strong adhesive force. . Further, a second adhesive 3 is applied within the connector 30 to cover the first adhesive 35, the contact pins 31, and the insulating cylindrical portion 34, and also to cover the inner wall of the connector 30.
6 will be provided. The second adhesive 36 is made of, for example, a silicone-based adhesive that has lower adhesive strength than the first adhesive 35 but is more elastic. That is, in the vicinity of the contact pin 31, a double layer adhesive 35 consisting of a first adhesive 35 and a second adhesive 36,
It is adhesively fixed by 36 and held airtightly.

As explained above, according to the present invention, the adhesive is firmly attached using the first adhesive having relatively strong adhesive strength,
On the other hand, since the first adhesive, which has lower adhesive strength than the first adhesive but is rich in elasticity, particularly ensures waterproof durability, the mounting strength and waterproof durability of the adhesive at the component attachment part can be improved. We can improve together. In addition, since it is sufficient without using O-rings or packing, the configuration can be simplified and an economical endoscope can be provided.
