Abstract: The electronic endoscope has an endoscope shaft (2) and an electronics housing (3), and also an optical waveguide (5) having optical fibers (4). The endoscope shaft (2) is formed on the electronics housing (3) or connected thereto, the electronics housing (3) being closed so as to be vapor-tight and liquid-tight from outside. The optical waveguide (5) extends between a distal end (6) of the endoscope shaft (2), directed away from the electronics housing (3), and a light source (7) arranged in the electronics housing (3). The optical waveguide (5) has, at its proximal end (8), an optical waveguide connector (9), with which a light exit point (10) from the electronics housing (3) is closed off in a vapor-tight and liquid-tight manner.

Abstract: A control valve (8) for a medical suction device (1) is provided, with the control valve (8) having an actuating element for freeing and closing a flow path (15) through a valve chamber (11) through the use of a valve plunger (12). Additional air intake openings (16) are formed on the actuating element (10) and define an additional flow path (21) through the valve chamber (11).

Abstract: In a control valve (3) for a medical suction device (1), it is provided that a coupling location (4) of the control valve (3) is includes a guide (8) which, when the control valve (3) is being plugged or fitted into a coupling seat (5) of the medical suction device (1), cooperates with a mating guide piece (9) of the coupling seat (5) for axial guiding and which, in a position turned away from the plugging-in orientation, cooperates with the coupling seat (5) for axially locking the control valve (3) on the coupling seat (5).
