Zusammenfassung:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To enlarge a working diameter of an articulated curving mechanism constituting the curved portion of an endoscope and to achieve a reduction in tension of a wire cable, particularly to reduce the diameter of the end of the endoscope. SOLUTION: In an articulated curving mechanism for use in an endoscope, etc., the position of a wire guide 35 guiding a wire cable 36 is circumferentially offset by 45 deg. with respect to a position where connecting pieces 21, 22 are connected by a rivet 25 on the inner periphery side of an intermediate element 20.
