Abstract: A camera system for monitoring the inside of a body having excellent work efficiency is suggested. The camera system for monitoring the inside of a body includes: a cable (12) in which one end is connected to the imaging part; a first auxiliary tool (8) which is connected to the other end of the cable (12); and a second auxiliary tool (7) which includes a holding unit (7g) which holds a held unit (8g) provided in the first auxiliary tool (8), and a rod-like unit (7x) connected to the holding unit (7g), and which draws out the held unit (8g) toward the outside of the body from the inside of the body through the inside of a tube-like device (6) of which one end is guided toward the inside of the body, in a state of being held by the holding unit (7g).

Abstract: The present invention provides a bending device which is capable of easily controlling a bending motion with superior controllability. A portion of an elastic tube body (11) opposite a portion in which a non-stretching body (4) is fixed inflates in a circumferential direction of the elastic tube body (11) in response to increase in an internal pressure of the elastic tube body (11), and an elastic tube (1P) bends in a step-wise angle corresponding to the number of layers of a multi-layer structure. The portion of the elastic tube body (11) in which the non-stretching body (4) is fixed is thicker than the remaining portion of the elastic tube body (11).
