A tip element for an otoscopic apparatus includes engagement features that permit selective attachment to two different tip attachment mechanisms. The tip element includes both interior and exterior engagement features that provide interchangeability with otoscopes having different tip attachment schemes. The tip element includes an increased distal aperture formed from a decreased slope that enables a larger field of view, permitting the entire tympanic membrane to be viewed at once. External engagement features permit ejection of the tip from the otoscope, as well as stackability of a plurality of tip elements.

L'invention concerne un élément d'embout pour appareil otoscopique comprenant des caractéristiques d'imbrication qui permettent une fixation sélective sur deux mécanismes de fixation différents. Cet élément d'embout comporte des caractéristiques d'imbrication intérieure et extérieure qui engendrent une interchangeabilité avec des otoscopes dotés de modèles de fixation d'embout différents. L'élément d'embout comprend une ouverture distale accrue formée à partir d'une pente réduite qui débouche sur un champ de vue plus important, ce qui permet de visualiser d'emblée la globalité de la membrane du tympan. Les caractéristiques d'imbrication externe permettent d'éjecter l'embout de l'otoscope, ainsi que d'empiler une pluralité d'éléments d'embout.
