[0022] The protective plate 5 is a transparent soft plate, and the protective plate 5 is foldable. The sealing plate 8 is composed of two semicircular plates, and a circular hole is opened on the outer wall of the sealing plate 8. When the first protective shell 1 and the second protective shell 2 rotate, the protective plate 5 can be opened and closed normally, and the endoscope can be guaranteed to work normally. The circular hole opened on the outer wall of the sealing plate 8 is used to facilitate the placement of cables.

[0023] The inner wall of the first protective shell 1 is provided with a clamping device 7, which includes a telescopic rod 701. The outer wall of the telescopic rod 701 is sleeved with a second spring 702. One end of the second spring 702 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the first protective shell 1, and the other end of the second spring 702 is welded and fixed with a clamping plate 703. When the clamping plate 703 is subjected to force, it will move to adjust the distance between the two clamping plates 703, so as to facilitate the clamping and fixation of endoscopes of different sizes.

[0024] The inner walls of the first protective shell 1 and the second protective shell 2 are provided with a clamping device 7, the outer wall of the clamping plate 703 is fixedly connected to the telescopic rod 701, and the shape of the clamping plate 703 is an arc, so that the clamping plate 703 can fit with the endoscope to improve the fixing effect of the device.

[0025] The inner wall of the first protective shell 1 is provided with a fixing device 6, which includes a connecting block 601, the inner wall of the connecting block 601 is slidably connected with a first spring 602, and one end of the first spring 602 is welded and fixed with a clamping block 603 which is slidably connected to the inner wall of the connecting block 601, and the inner wall of the first protective shell 1 is slidably connected with a pull rod 604 at a position corresponding to the clamping block 603, the top of the connecting block 601 is fixedly connected to the first protective shell 1, and the position where the outer wall of the second protective shell 2 is connected to the connecting block 601 is provided with a mounting groove, and the position where the inner wall of the mounting groove is corresponding to the clamping block 603 is provided with a clamping groove, and the clamping block 603 is clamped with the inner wall of the clamping groove. When the device needs to be disassembled, the pull rod 604 is pushed to push the clamping block 603 to move during the movement of the pull rod 604. When the clamping block 603 is withdrawn from the clamping groove, the first protective shell 1 and the second protective shell 2 are manually separated, so that the endoscope can be taken out of the first protective shell 1 and the second protective shell 2, which is convenient for users to operate and improves the convenience of the device.

[0026] Working principle: when in use, the endoscope is placed between the two clamping plates 703. When the first protective shell 1 and the second protective shell 2 are closed, the two clamping plates 703 are forced to move and squeeze the second spring 702, so that the elastic potential energy of the second spring 702 increases.
