ABSTRACT:
A medical instrument such as forceps attached to an endoscope, wherein a base member is provided at the base end of the forceps; a slider connected by wire to a movable head fitted to the tip of the forceps is slidably mounted on a base member provided at the base end of the forceps; a bore formed in the slider contains a pawl, and a spring and stem both cooperating in urging the pawl for engagement with toothed portions formed on the base member; when the knob portion of the stem projecting outward from the bore is depressed, then the pawl is disengaged from the toothed portions and as the result, the knob portion is so actuated as to tilt the stem sideways for latching, thereby keeping the pawl in a disengaged position, and allowing the slider freely to slide over the base member.
