[0034] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 A limiting groove 7 is provided on the inner wall of the hand-held rod 1, and a limiting block 8 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the telescopic rod 2. The limiting block 8 is slidably engaged with the limiting groove 7. A conductive brush 9 is fixedly installed on the limiting block 8. A conductive rail is fixedly embedded in the inner wall of the limiting groove 7. The conductive brush 9 electrically contacts the conductive rail.

An adjusting bolt 6 is threadedly installed on the hand-held rod 1, and the end face of the adjusting bolt 6 is tightly pressed on the telescopic rod 2. The telescopic rod 2 slides along the hand-held rod 1, and the maximum length is limited by the limiting groove 7 and the limiting block 8, and is locked by tightening the adjusting bolt 6. When the telescopic rod 2 moves, the conductive brush 9 is electrically in contact with the conductive rail. When the telescopic rod 2 moves, the power outside the hand-held rod 1 can be transmitted to the wire in the telescopic rod 2 through the conductive rail and the conductive brush 9, thereby providing energy for video recording and lighting.
[0035] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 The deformation rod 3 includes a movable block 31 and a mounting block 32. A mounting block 32 is provided at one end of the telescopic rod 2 away from the hand-held rod 1. A plurality of movable blocks 31 are provided between the mounting block 32 and the telescopic rod 2. A first rotating plate 33 is fixedly installed on the side of the telescopic rod 2 and the movable block 31 away from the hand-held rod 1. A second rotating plate 34 is fixedly installed on the side of the movable block 31 and the mounting block 32 close to the hand-held rod 1. The second rotating plate 34 is rotatably connected to the first rotating plate 33 through a pin shaft 35. A camera 4 and a lighting lamp 5 are installed at one end of the mounting block 32 away from the hand-held rod 1. A pull plate 37 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the mounting block 32.

Therefore, when the endoscope is extended, the torsion spring makes the movable block 31 and the mounting block 32 fit the baffle 36, and the endoscope is extended in a straight line as a whole. When the angle needs to be adjusted, the user pulls the pull rope 39 at the hand-held rod 1, and the pull rope 39 pulls the pull plate 37, so that the mounting block 32 and the movable block 31 rotate along the pin 35.

Finally, when not in use, the telescopic rod 2 is retracted into the hand-held rod 1 and fixed, and the winding wheel 11 is rotated to reel in the pull rope 39, and finally it is tightened and fixed by the locking bolt 13 to prevent the pull rope 39 from being entangled and knotted.
[0037] Working principle: the telescopic rod 2 slides inside the hand-held rod 1, and is limited to the maximum length by the limit groove 7 and the limit block 8, and is locked by tightening the adjustment bolt 6. When the telescopic rod 2 moves, the conductive brush 9 is in electrical contact with the conductive rail. When the telescopic rod 2 moves, the power outside the hand-held rod 1 can be transmitted to the wire inside the telescopic rod 2 through the conductive rail and the conductive brush 9, thereby providing energy for video and lighting. A torsion spring is installed between the first rotating plate 33, the second rotating plate 34 and the pin 35. When the endoscope is extended, the torsion spring makes the movable block 31 and the mounting block 32 fit the baffle 36, and the endoscope is extended in a straight line as a whole. When the angle needs to be adjusted, the user pulls the pull rope 39 at the hand-held rod 1, and the pull rope 39 pulls the pull plate 37, then the mounting block 32 and the movable block 31 rotate along the pin 35.
