A single use, disposable, vaginal speculum uses a chemically fluorescent light tube (54) to provide built-in illumination for the body cavity being examined with the speculum. An integrally molded light tube holder has two opposing walls (50, 51) between which the light tube is inserted. Ridges (55, 56, 57, 58) on the inner surfaces of the opposing wails serve to guide the light tube into position in the speculum and to firmly grasp the light tube so as to prevent dislodgement during the examination. An integral stop member (53) is molded into the light tube holder to terminate the insertion of the light tube into the holder in precisely the position required to properly position the light tube.
Spéculum vaginal non réutilisable pourvu d'un tube chimioluminescent (54) intégré assurant l'éclairage de la cavité corporelle examinée. Le support du tube luminescent, moulé d'une seule pièce, présente deux parois latérales (50, 51) entre lesquelles il vient s'insérer. Des rainures (55, 56, 57, 58) ménagées à la surface intérieure des parois latérales servent à guider le tube luminescent à sa place et à l'y maintenir pour éviter son déplacement pendant un examen. Le support du tube comporte une butée (53) moulée intégrée limitant son insertion et permettant de le positionner avec précision à l'emplacement requis.
