Abstract

An improved apparatus for checking the inside of a pipe or the like is proposed. Two reflex mirrors are provided, one for reflecting the light from a source of light and the other for reflecting the light from the object being checked. Because respective mirrors are provided for the source of light and for the light from the object, the inside of the object can be checked clearly.
