ABSTRACT:
An endoscope apparatus includes an insertion section to be inserted into a desired object of inspection, and a substantially cylindrical insertion guide for assisting insertion of the insertion section into the object. A threaded portion and an engaging portion are formed around the distal end portion of the insertion section. The guide has a guide body removably fitted around the distal end portion of the insertion section. The body has a threaded portion engaged with the threaded portion of the insertion section and a plurality of jugs which are pressed inward by a cylindrical cover fitted around the body to engage the engaging portion, thereby preventing the body from moving.
