Abstract:
An endoscope reprocessor includes a first connector receptacle configured to connect a first connector connected to a cylinder in an endoscope, a first switching device configured to switch the first connector to one of a sealed state and an unsealed state, a first gas feeding device connected to an air introduction port to introduce gas, and a processor configured to perform control such that first driving for driving the first gas feeding device by bringing the first connector into the unsealed state is performed and second driving for driving the first gas feeding device by bringing the first connector into the sealed state is then performed.

Claim (Index 1):
An endoscope reprocessor comprising:\n a first connector receptacle configured to connect a first connector connected to a cylinder provided in an operation section in an endoscope and switchable to one of a sealed state where gas does not leak out of the endoscope from the cylinder and an unsealed state where gas leaks out of the endoscope from the cylinder; a first switching device configured to switch the first connector to one of the sealed state and the unsealed state; a first gas feeding device configured to introduce gas by being connected to a gas introduction port provided in a scope connector in the endoscope and feed gas to a distal end of the endoscope via the cylinder; and a processor configured to control the first switching device and the first gas feeding device such that first driving for driving the first gas feeding device by bringing the first connector into the unsealed state is performed and second driving for driving the first gas feeding device by bringing the first connector into the sealed state is then performed.
