Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an operating light with at least a discharge lamp arranged in a lamp body, which approximately is cylindrical and the optical means Illuminated surgical field.
  • Adequate illumination of body cavities or operating channels is basically a special problem because nowadays the Surgeons dimmable surgical lights with an illuminance in the Range from about 60 to 130 klx. These high illuminance levels are necessary on the one hand because the light beam of the surgical light shadowed by the head and hands of the operating personnel becomes. On the other hand, with small and deep surgical fields high illuminance levels required because of depth illumination the surgical wound down the light rays at the wound edges must be reflected. About 90% of the red body tissue absorbs the incident light energy, i.e. only about 10% reflected and reach the depth of the wound.
  • a dimmability of operating lights for example to a value of 60 klx, is required if the operating field is only flat or extends only slightly in depth. The same applies to the In case the human skin is illuminated, that is essential has a higher degree of reflection than the red body tissue. Finally is a dimmability required when the surgical light is set this way can be that no or only slight shadowing from the Operations personnel take place.
  • an operating lamp provided with a discharge lamp provided with a mechanically adjustable aperture means, this diaphragm means along the entire circumference of the discharge lamp its effect does not vary. This ensures that along the circumference of the discharge lamp when the glare is actuated a uniform change in illuminance at every point takes place so that the light rays after passing through the optical Illuminate the surgical field evenly.
  • the Aperture means a transparent cylinder with a predetermined Transmittance include the coaxial to the longitudinal axis of the discharge lamp arranged and axially in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the discharge lamp is movable.
  • This cylinder acts as a circumferential direction evenly acting light filter, the setting of the filter effect by axially moving the transparent cylinder over the discharge lamp he follows. The cylinder is completely out of the area of the discharge lamp removed, there is no reduction in illuminance on. The cylinder is located completely above the discharge lamp the maximum dimming effect is achieved.
  • the degree of transmission of the cylinder is preferably both axial and uniform in the circumferential direction. This makes it particularly smooth Illuminated surgical field achieved.
  • the cylinder can be connected to an electric drive that drives the cylinder along the Longitudinal axis of the discharge lamp moves. In this way it is possible to achieve the dimming effect remotely and thus, for example the dimming function in a control and regulating circuit of a light field control integrate.
  • the diaphragm means not only over the entire circumference of the discharge lamp but also over the substantially entire axial length of the discharge lamp in equally effective.
  • the diaphragm agent can have several adjustable slats that extend along the longitudinal axis of the Discharge lamp and extend in particular along the circumference the discharge lamp are arranged.
  • the slats i.e. the permeability can be adjusted by swiveling around its longitudinal axes mechanically change the aperture.
  • Will the slats completely closed so that they form a cylinder is the Maximum dimming effect. If these are fully opened so that they are in the Are oriented essentially radially to the discharge lamp Minimal dimming effect.
  • the slats can at least be made translucent in some areas, for example by the slats recesses or holes are provided. hereby it is possible to limit the maximum dimming effect, for example to a value of about 50%.
  • a common drive is provided for all the slats, for example one link guide driven by an electric motor. In this way all slats can be operated simultaneously and in the same way, so that an even dimming effect is achieved.
  • the aperture means which is arranged in the lamp body, can be an opaque Have material with recesses from which the individual slats are formed.
  • a color-neutral filter glass for example gray glass, printed glass or one in transmission changeable light filter, for example a liquid filter, is provided become.
  • Fig. 1 shows a lamp body 10 of an operating lamp according to the Invention, in a known manner on a not shown Lamp arm is attached.
  • the lamp body 10 has on its underside a transparent cover 12, in the middle of a handle 14 is attached.
  • a socket 16 is arranged above the handle 14, on the top of which a discharge lamp 18 is attached.
  • a mechanically adjustable diaphragm for changing the illuminance in the area of the operating field is a mechanically adjustable diaphragm in the form of a cylinder slats 22 arranged side by side are provided.
  • the longitudinal axis each lamella 22 runs parallel to the longitudinal axis of the discharge lamp 18, the cylinder and discharge lamp running coaxially to one another.
  • Each individual lamella 22 is pivotable about its longitudinal axis, wherein a lower part 24 and an upper part 26 are provided for mounting the slats are.
  • a link guide is provided in the area of the upper part 26, which interacts with each individual slat 22, so that by a drive 28 provided in the area of the upper part 26 has a common one All slats can be adjusted.
  • Fig. 2 shows a further embodiment of the invention, being the same Components have the same reference numerals.
  • Fig. 2 is to change the Illuminance in the area of the operating field as an aperture at least partially transparent cylinder 32 is provided, one predetermined transmittance, for example 50%.
  • the Cylinder 32 is arranged coaxially to the longitudinal axis of the discharge lamp 18 and axially along the double arrow shown in the direction of Longitudinal axis of the discharge lamp 18 movable.
  • the cylinder 32 is arranged on a holder 34 which has a Spindle drive 36 is axially movable.
  • the spindle drive 36 By operating the spindle drive 36, the cylinder 32 is moved in the direction of the arrow, so that the cylinder 32 cover the discharge lamp 18 to different extents in the axial direction can.
  • the cylinder 32 can be completely up be driven so that there is no dimming effect. In the in Fig. 2nd position shown the full dimming effect is achieved.
  • Dependent on the degree of transmission of the cylinder is, for example 50%.
  • Fig. 3 shows a side view of another embodiment of a Lamella 42, which consists of a substantially rectangular sheet, which is painted black to avoid unwanted reflections, and which has a plurality of parallel slots 44 which differ from one long side of the lamella to close to the opposite long side extend.
  • the lamella has a comb-like structure with parallel strip-shaped sections 46.
  • Two pin sections 48 and 49 are integrally formed on a longitudinal side of the lamella 42 and are used for rotatable mounting of the slat in the upper part 26 and the lower part 24.
