Multi camera endoscope assembly having multiple working channels

A fluid channeling component for use with a medical device, the fluid channeling component having a length and a height, and comprising:

• a base positioned at a proximal end of the fluid channeling component,
• a first fraction extending along the length of the fluid channeling component from the base to a distal portion of the fluid channeling component and comprising a housing that has encased therein a first working channel extending along the length of the fluid channeling component and a first fluid channel extending along the length of the fluid channeling component,
• a second fraction extending along the length of the fluid channeling component from the base to the distal portion of the fluid channeling component, wherein the second fraction opposes the first fraction and is spaced from the first fraction, and
• a void between the first fraction and the second fraction, wherein the void extends, in a direction of the length, from a distal front face of the base to the distalmost end of the fluid channeling component, and the void extends in a direction of the height transverse to the length, between the first fraction and the second fraction so that the void is exposed to an exterior of the fluid channeling component at a first side, a second side, and a third side of the void, wherein the first side opposes the second side, wherein the first side and the second side each extends proximally from a distal end of the fluid channeling component, and wherein the third side extends across the distal end of the fluid channeling component from the first side to the second side;
• wherein the void is configured to receive an electrical assembly such that the electrical assembly is positioned within the void and abuts the first fraction and the second fraction, and wherein the electrical assembly includes one or more cameras;
• and
• wherein the second fraction includes a housing that has encased therein a second working channel extending along the length of the fluid channeling component.

A fluid channeling component for use with a medical device, the fluid channeling component having a length and a height, and comprising:

• a base positioned at a proximal end of the fluid channeling component, wherein the base is substantially cylindrical and includes a first proximal section and a second distal section, wherein the second distal section has a first radially-outermost surface from a central longitudinal axis of the base that is radially-outermost to a second radially-outermost surface from the central longitudinal axis of the base of the first proximal section;
• a first fraction extending along the length of the fluid channeling component from the base to a distal portion of the fluid channeling component and including a first fluid channel extending along the length of said fluid channeling component, wherein the first fluid channel includes a first section extending from an opening at a proximalmost surface of the base to a first portion within the first fraction, a second section extending from the first portion of the first fraction to a first opening at a distal front face of the first fraction, and a third section extending from the first portion within the first fraction to a second opening at a radially outer surface of the base;
• a second fraction extending along the length of the fluid channeling component from the base to the distal portion of the fluid channeling component, wherein the second fraction opposes the first fraction, and the second fraction does not contact the first fraction;
• and
• a void between the first fraction and the second fraction, wherein the void is configured to receive an electrical assembly including a front facing image sensor and a side facing image sensor, wherein the void extends from a distal front face of the base to a distalmost end of the fluid channeling component;
• wherein the void is exposed to an exterior of the fluid channeling component at three sides of the fluid channeling component such that the fluid channeling component forms an opening that extends completely across a distal end of the fluid channeling component and extends proximally from the distal end of the fluid channeling component at opposing sides of the fluid channeling component;
• wherein the second fraction includes a housing that has encased therein a working channel extending along the length of the fluid channeling component.
