Abstract:
An endoscope of an embodiment includes: a distal end rigid member made of resin; a channel tube connecting member which has a distal end side fitted and fixed in the distal end rigid member and is formed in a tubular shape using a conductive member, and which includes a stepped portion on a part of an outer circumferential surface in a longitudinal direction; and a bending piece member which is formed in a tubular shape using a conductive member and arranged just behind a rear end side of the distal end rigid member, and which has a protruding portion protruding and elastically-deformed toward an inner circumferential surface side, wherein when the bending piece member is fixed to the distal end rigid member with the channel tube connecting member being housed inside thereof, the protruding portion contacts the outer circumferential surface of the channel tube connecting member to establish conduction.
