| 20100051587 | Welding Apparatus, Tubular Body With a Covered Tip End and Welding Method - The tip end of a tubular body is oriented towards an inner bottom face of a recess for holding a heating body, then the outer peripheral surface is oriented towards the inner peripheral surface of a heating body, and said tubular body is inserted into the heating body from the open side of the recess in the axial direction. This allows a film to be shaped from the tip end around the outer peripheral surface of the tubular body. The film and the heating body are heated in an overlapping state, and the film is welded to the outer peripheral surface of the tubular body. | 03-04-2010 |
| 20100178014 | Plug and Connecting Structure for Endoscope Provided Therewith - A plug in which the base end portions of an image guide comprise an image guide fiber and an image guide rod. A light guide comprising a light guide fiber and a light guide rod are fixed to a plug main body in a parallel state. The plug and a socket can be connected. The diameter of a position-aligning hole portion into which the base end of the image guide rod is inserted is set to be substantially the same as the outer diameter of the image guide rod , while the diameter of a position-aligning hole portion into which the base end of the light guide rod is inserted is set to be greater than the outer diameter of the light guide rod. | 07-15-2010 |
| 20110130629 | ENDOSCOPE COVER FIXING DEVICE AND FIXING SYSTEM - An endoscope cover fixing device to reliably fix a cover to an endoscope without associated damage. The endoscope cover fixing device includes a fixing device main body and a pair of fixing protrusion portions. The fixing device main body includes a curved portion and insert holes, and is deformable in the direction in which the bend amount increases. The pair of fixing protrusion portions, which have contact surfaces, are provided to protrude from a concave surface side of the fixing device main body and are disposed in two opposing regions of the concave surface. The contact surfaces are disposed in parallel with a fixed distance therebetween. During deformation of the fixing device main body, the pair of fixing protrusion portions move in parallel in opposing directions. As a result, the contact surfaces contact opposing positions on the outer circumferential surface of the endoscope by way of the cover. | 06-02-2011 |
| 20110152617 | ENDOSCOPE COVER FIXING DEVICE AND FIXING SYSTEM - An endoscope cover fixing device able to reliably fix the position of a cover to an endoscope without associated damage. The endoscope cover fixing device includes a fixing device main body and a wedge-shaped portion. Insert portions | 06-23-2011 |
