The present invention, in the endoscope body, an optical image transmitting member for transmitting the optical image is inserted, the operation portion of the endoscope body, a display unit for displaying an optical image captured is coupled, the display unit is movable relative to the operation unit, an endoscope. The object of the present invention is to provide an endoscope damage of the optical image transmission member is prevented. The endoscope optical image transmission member on an operator block (61) interior space (21), and transmits an optical image, having a connection end portion disposed inside the space (21) to (61) the operation section and (26), is connected an operating unit (21) movably operating unit (21) has a (64) interior space, an optical image captured transmitted by (26) an optical image transmitting member a display unit for displaying (27), and transmits the electrical signal, extends between the interior space (27) and (64) display section (61) interior space (21) operation section, a display unit (27) electrical connecting member having a (82) connecting end is connected to a (78), slack movement (27) the display unit to (21) the operation portion is not prevented by (78) electrically connecting member regulating mechanism for regulating (97 92) from moving into (26) side optical image transmitting member portion electrically connecting member having a play consisting of (78), forms a play electrical connection member in (78) and characterized in that it comprises a, and (99, 100 87,92 96, 98).本発明は、内視鏡本体に、光学像を伝達する光学像伝達部材が挿通されており、内視鏡本体の操作部に、撮像された光学像を表示する表示部が連結されており、操作部に対して表示部が移動可能である、内視鏡に関する。本発明の目的は、光学像伝達部材の損傷が防止される内視鏡を提供することである。内視鏡は、内部空間(61)を有する操作部(21)と、光学像を伝達し、操作部(21)の内部空間(61)に配置されている連結端部を有する光学像伝達部材(26)と、操作部(21)に対して移動可能に操作部(21)に連結され、内部空間(64)を有し、光学像伝達部材(26)によって伝達され撮像された光学像を表示する表示部(27)と、電気信号を伝達し、操作部(21)の内部空間(61)と表示部(27)の内部空間(64)との間で延び、表示部(27)に接続されている接続端部(82)を有する電気接続部材(78)であって、操作部(21)に対する表示部(27)の移動が電気接続部材(78)によって妨げられないように余長からなる遊びを有する電気接
