ABSTRACT:
A vertebra for an endoscope and a joinder for segments of the vertebra. A pair of tubular segments have tangs that overlap one another. One tube is imperforate and the other is perforate, with a hinge aperture through it. The perforate tang has a dimension of thickness. A hinge pin is adhered to the imperforate tang and passes into the aperture. Its length is less than the thickness of the perforate tang so no part of the pin projects beyond the perforate tang. Preferably the pin is welded to the imperforate tang.
