[0030] By rotating the handle portion 26 fixed on the switching disc 25, holding the ball on the handle portion 26, sliding along the arc-shaped opening 14 set on the outer shell 10, and rotating one hundred and eighty degrees, the circular flow channel 29 is moved to the position of the through hole 33 on the right, and the through hole 33 on the left contacts with the bottom of the switching disc 25 to form a seal, thereby completing the switching, and when air and water supply are not required, the handle portion 26 can be rotated ninety degrees, so that the circular flow channel 29 and the two through holes 33 are not connected, thereby forming a seal, and forming a double layer of protection between the main switch of the endoscope.
[0031] In addition, in one embodiment, the difference from the above embodiment is that an opening is provided through the cylindrical portion 20 of the above-mentioned connecting cylinder 18, and an activated carbon filter 23 is slidably connected in the opening, a smooth ball 24 is fixedly provided on the connection frame at the right end of the activated carbon filter 23, a support plate 22 is fixedly connected to the upper end surface of the switching disc 25, an arc plate 21 is fixedly connected to the upper end surface of the support plate 22, the inner cavity end surface of the arc plate 21 abuts against the smooth ball 24, and a reset spring is connected between the inner side of the connection frame on the right end surface of the activated carbon filter 23 and the outer end surface of the cylindrical portion 20;
[0032] In this way, not only can the transported water and gas be filtered to a certain extent through the activated carbon filter 23, but also when the handle part 26 is rotated for switching, the arc plate 21 follows the switching disk 25 to rotate, so that the inner end surface of the arc plate 21 abuts against the smooth sphere 24 for rotation, thereby pushing the activated carbon filter 23 to slide to the left, pushing in the part of the activated carbon filter 23 exposed on the outside, and pushing out the part originally in the cylindrical part 20, which has completed the filtration, so that when the water gas is switched, the activated carbon filter 23 is also switched, so that no cross contamination will be formed, which is very safe and convenient.
[0033] In addition, in one embodiment, different from the above embodiment, the inner side of the arc surface of the left half of the arc plate 21 is set to be undulating corrugated, so that when the rear half of the arc plate 21 abuts against the smooth sphere 24 for sliding, the activated carbon filter 23 will form a reciprocating left and right shaking on the corrugation of the arc plate 21, thereby being able to push out some impurities on the left part of the activated carbon filter 23 and shake off.
[0034] It should be noted that in order to make the connection between the connecting tube 18 and the upper joint 15 more sealed, in the present embodiment, a countersunk cavity 16 is provided at the bottom of the upper joint 15, and an annular protrusion 17 is provided at the edge of the inner cavity position of the upper joint 15 in the countersunk cavity 16, and an annular groove 19 is provided on the upper end surface of the connecting tube 18, and the connecting tube 18 is embedded in the countersunk cavity 16, and the annular protrusion 17 is embedded in the annular groove 19.

[0036] In the specific implementation, the output tube 11 is first connected to the water and gas output tube of the endoscope, while the input tube 12 is connected to the output tube of the water supply device, and the input tube 2 13 is connected to the output tube of the gas supply device. When the water and gas switch is required, the handle 26 fixed on the switching disk 25 is rotated, the ball on the handle 26 is held, and the ball is slid along the arc-shaped opening 14 provided on the outer shell 10, thereby rotating 180 degrees, and the circular flow channel 29 is moved to the position of the through hole 33 on the right side, and the through hole 33 on the left side is aligned with the through hole 33 on the right side. The bottom of the switching disc 25 contacts to form a seal. At the same time, the arc plate 21 rotates following the switching disc 25, so that the inner end surface of the arc plate 21 abuts against the smooth sphere 24 to rotate, thereby pushing the activated carbon filter 23 to slide to the left, pushing in a part of the activated carbon filter 23 exposed on the outside, and pushing out a part originally in the cylindrical part 20.
