The control units with the microprocessor comprise memory recording a position of the lamp manually determined by an operator for realizing automated tracking.

Description

La présente invention concerne un dispositif ergonomique relatif aux lampes scialytiques d'éclairage utilisées dans le cadre du cabinet dentaire à partir de deux nouvelles options techniques: soit le pilotage à distance de l'orientation de la lampe par le chirurgien dentiste Soit la gestion automatisée de l'orientation de cette lampe.The present invention relates to an ergonomic device for the surgical lighting lamps used in the dental office from two new technical options: remote control of the orientation of the lamp by the dental surgeon. the orientation of this lamp.

Dans l'une ou l'autre des options techniques, la mobilité de la lampe est assurée par deux micro moteurs qui lui sont intégrés .l'un des micro moteurs est dédié aux mouvements horizontaux de la lampe, le second micromoteur est dedié aux mouvements verticaux de cette lampe. Ces deux micro moteurs travaillant dans deux axes ont déjà été décrits dans le précédent brevet N° 2 606 915 déposé le 17/11/1986 mais leur gestion proposée était tout à fait différente de celles décrites dans le présent développement ,et reposait sur des cellules photoélectriques placées Sur la lampe et chargées de suivre un spot lumineux situé sur le front du patient; Un tel dispositif était contraignant à la fois pour le patient qui devait supporter une monture frontale, Et genant pour le praticien pour l'approche de la zone opératoire, puisqu'un coffret éméteur du rayonnement devait etre plaçé derrière la têtière du fauteuil.In one or the other of the technical options, the mobility of the lamp is ensured by two micro motors which are integrated to it. One of the micro-motors is dedicated to the horizontal movements of the lamp, the second micromotor is dedicated to the movements vertical of this lamp. These two micro-motors working in two axes have already been described in the previous patent No. 2,606,915 filed on 17/11/1986 but their proposed management was quite different from those described in the present development, and was based on photocells placed on the lamp and responsible for following a light spot located on the patient's forehead; Such a device was restrictive both for the patient who had to support a frontal mount, and inconvenient for the practitioner for the approach of the operating area, since a box emitter of radiation should be placed behind the headrest of the chair.

dans le présent développement,la poursuite à distance de la lampe ne présente pas ces inconvénients et laisse libre de toute contrainte le patient et l'opérateur.in the present development, remote tracking of the lamp does not have these disadvantages and leaves the patient and the operator free from any constraint.

Pour les explications qui vont suivrent, on se reportera a la figure 1, qui est une vue générale de De l'espace professionnel dentaire avec la lampe scialytique 1,à interrupteur incorporé, munie d'une articulation 2 assurant sa mobilité horizontale et une articulation 3 assurant sa mobilité verticale . Cette lampe peut etre sur colonne ou suspendue a une suspension plafonnière et située devant le Fauteuil F , ou prend place le patient, représenté dans deux positions cliniques différentes. l'articulation 4 est dediée aux mouvements importants de la lampe en dehors des soins. Le bloc pédale 5 commande par un rhéostat 6, l'ensemble des instruments rotatifs 7.For the explanations that follow, we will refer to the figure 1 which is a general view of the professional dental area with the operating light 1, switch incorporated, provided with a hinge 2 ensuring its horizontal mobility and a hinge 3 ensuring its vertical mobility. This lamp can be on a column or suspended ceiling suspension and located in front of the Armchair F, or takes place the patient, represented in two different clinical positions. the articulation 4 is dedicated to the important movements of the lamp outside care. The pedal unit 5 controls by a rheostat 6, the set of rotary instruments 7.

En l'etat actuel de la technique, au départ et pendant l'acte dentaire, les réglages d'orientation de la Source lumineuse se font manuellement par le dentiste dans les plans vertical et horizontal.In the current state of the art, at the start and during the dental procedure, the orientation settings of the light source are manually done by the dentist in the vertical and horizontal planes.

Le champ opératoire constitué par la bouche ouverte est de petite taille et la moindre variation de la tete du patient l'écarte de la zone éclairée...aussi le praticien est il contraint à de fréquents Réajustements de la source lumineuse pouvant entraîner une déconcentration ainsi qu'une fatigue Supplémentaire.. avec accumulation des « temps morts » entraînant une durée plus longue de l'intervention, de plus ces réglages manuels peuvent contaminer les mains de l'opérateur Même si ce dernier porte des gants protecteurs.The operative field constituted by the open mouth is small and the slightest variation of the head of the patient removes it from the illuminated area ... also the practitioner is forced to frequent readjustments of the light source which can lead to deconcentration as well. that extra fatigue .. with accumulation of "downtime" resulting in a longer duration of the intervention, further these manual settings can contaminate the hands of the operator Even if the latter wears protective gloves.

Enfin ,quelque soit le type de lampe, le maximum d'intensité d'éclairage se situe toujours au centre du faisceau lumineux .Finally, whatever the type of lamp, the maximum intensity of lighting is always in the center of the light beam.

Il faut donc bien cibler en permanence, la zone opératoire pour bénéficier de sa meilleure approche Visuelle, d'ou l'intéret d'une gestion a distance de la source lumineuse par asservissementIt is therefore necessary to permanently target the operating area to benefit from its best visual approach, or for the sake of remote management of the light source by servo

Faisant l'objet du présent brevet ,après adoption d'un 1er positionnement manuel de la lampe. Paramètres à prendre en compte:

  • La figure 2 visualise l'angulation du faisceau lumineux 8 et la zone opératoire éclairée 9 Pour un patient en situation mi couché * avec schématisation en 10 d'une rotation pilotée De faible amplitude de la lampe 1 souhaitée dans le plan horizontal, Schématisation en 11 d'une rotation pilotée de faible amplitude souhaitée dans le plan vertical, afin de focaliser avec précision la zone opératoire 9 . *suivant l'acte clinique à réaliser ,on prendra pour principe que le praticien, aura adopter définitivement en début de phase opératoire, un positionnement déterminé du fauteuil dentaire F et situant la tete du patient dans la tetière T.La figure 3 donne la valeur moyenne de 5 cm pour balayer l'éclairage sur la totalité de l'arcade dentaire sup. 1 dans le plan vertical ,même valeur de 5cm. pour balayer dans le même plan ,l'arcade dentaire inf.2 .
Subject of this patent, after adoption of a lamp 1, the manual positioning. Parameters to take into account:
  • The figure 2 visualizes the angulation of the light beam 8 and the illuminated operating area 9 For a patient in a supine situation * with schematization in 10 of a controlled rotation of small amplitude of the desired lamp 1 in the horizontal plane, schematization in 11 of a controlled rotation of small amplitude desired in the vertical plane, in order to precisely focus the operating area 9. According to the clinical act to be performed, it will be assumed that the practitioner will definitively adopt, at the beginning of the operative phase, a determined positioning of the dental chair F and locating the patient's head in the T. figure 3 gives the average value of 5 cm to scan the lighting on the entire upper dental arch. 1 in the vertical plane, same value of 5cm. to scan in the same plane, the dental arch inf.2.

On retiendra une course moyenne totale de 10 cm nécessaire en vertical, pour une ouverture de bouche souvent inférieure a 5 cm dans ce plan.... La figure 4 donne la valeur moyenne de 6cm. pour balayer 1'éclairage sur la totalité de l'arcade Dentaire sup. 1 dans le plan horizontal, valeur de 6 cm pour l'arcade dentaire inf. 2 .We will retain a total average stroke of 10 cm needed in vertical, for a mouth opening often less than 5 cm in this plane. figure 4 gives the average value of 6cm. to sweep the illumination over the entire upper dental arch. 1 in the horizontal plane, value of 6 cm for the inferior dental arch. 2.

On retiendra une course moyenne de 10 cm. en horizontal.We will retain an average stroke of 10 cm. in horizontal.

Ces valeurs réelles ne correspondent pas à l'échelle des figures, mais elles serviront à quantifier les amplitudes a retenir dans la gestion de l'orientation de la lampe.(elles ont été évaluées à partir d'arcades dentaires adultes schématisées ici,,elles seront donc à minorer chez l'enfant ,ce qui Ne remet pas en cause les dispositifs qui seront décrits plus loin.)These real values do not correspond to the scale of the figures, but they will be used to quantify the amplitudes to retain in the management of the orientation of the lamp (they have been evaluated from adult dental arches schematized here, they will be reduced to the child, which Do not question the devices that will be described later.)

A partir de ces mesures ,pour un patient adulte situé en général a moins de 1m. de la lampe, on retiendra une correction d'angulation du faisceau lumineux évalué à 10°maximum dans les deux axes d'orientation au niveau de la lampe à partir de la position préétablie en debut des soins.From these measurements, for an adult patient generally located at less than 1m. of the lamp, it will retain a correction of angulation of the light beam evaluated at 10 ° maximum in the two axes of orientation at the lamp from the pre-established position at the beginning of care.

La figure 5 montre que les arcades dentaires 1 et 2 peuvent etre divisées chacune en quatre quadrants à l'arcade sup.1 on décrit le quadrant sup.droit ant. (QSDA),le quadrant sup. droit post.(QSDP), le quadrant sup Gauche ant.(QSGA)et le quadrant sup. gauche post.(QSGP). A l'arcade inf.2,on décrit le quadrant inf.droit ant.(QIDA),le quadrant inf.droit post.(QIDP), le quadrant inf. Gauche ant.(QIGA)et le quadrant inf. gauche post.(QIGP). Au total un quadrant sur huit sera idéalement à focaliser en debut de phase opératoire suivant L'acte a réaliser en bouche.The figure 5 shows that the dental arches 1 and 2 can each be divided into four quadrants at the upper arch, the quadrant sup.droit ant is described. (QSDA), the upper quadrant. right post (QSDP), left quadrant ant (QSGA) and sup quadrant. left post (QSGP). In arc.2, we describe the right quadrant ant (QIDA), the right post quadrant (QIDP), the quadrant inf. Left ant (QIGA) and quadrant inf. left post (QIGP). A total of one quadrant out of eight will ideally focus at the beginning of the next operating phase The act to achieve in the mouth.

Solutions techniques:

  • Le but poursuivi est d'assurer une gestion pilotée a distance de la source lumineuse, cela suppose au départ un débrayage possible de ce système permettant en debut d'intervention, Un réglage manuel de la lampe par le dentiste sur le quadrant buccal souhaité.
Technical solutions:
  • The aim is to ensure controlled management at a distance from the light source, this presupposes at the beginning a possible disengagement of this system allowing early intervention, manual adjustment of the lamp by the dentist on the desired oral quadrant.

Ce réglage initial sera validé dans un microprocesseur ( avec interface de commande numérique de motorisation) dedié a la lampe munie de deux moteurs travaillant dans les deux axes vertical et Horizontal.Ce microprocesseur pouvant etre logé dans une console annexée à l'unit dentaire. la figure 6 est une vue de façe de la lampe scialytique sur laquelle est localisé le micro moteur 12 dedié a la rotation horizontale pouvant etre associé ou intégré à l'articulation 2 qui assure déjà la même fonction en mode manuel(report fig.1) et le micro moteur 13 dedié a la rotation verticale pouvant etre associé ou intégré à l'articulation 3 assurant la même fonction en mode manuel (fig.1A ce sujet ,on notera la poignée 14 utilisee couramment pour le réglage manuel de la lampe. ces deux servomoteurs vont donc gérer dans ces deux axes, le pivotement de la lampe sur des amplitudes réduites réservées à la phase soins, et quantifiées précédemment. L'originalité du présent brevet réside dans le fait que ces deux motorisations peuvent etre gérées Selon deux options de commande possible:

  • la gestion entièrement automatisée de la lampe.
This initial setting will be validated in a microprocessor (with digital engine control interface) dedicated to the lamp provided with two motors working in both vertical and horizontal axes. This microprocessor can be housed in a console attached to the dental unit. the figure 6 is a front view of the operating light on which is located the micro motor 12 dedicated to the horizontal rotation that can be associated or integrated with the hinge 2 which already provides the same function in manual mode (report fig.1 ) and the micro-motor 13 dedicated to the vertical rotation that can be associated or integrated with the hinge 3 providing the same function in manual mode ( fig.1A this subject, note the handle 14 commonly used for manual adjustment of the lamp. these two servomotors will thus manage in these two axes, the pivoting of the lamp on reduced amplitudes reserved for the care phase, and quantified previously. The originality of this patent lies in the fact that these two engines can be managed According to two possible command options:
  • fully automated lamp management.

Sans intervention de l'opérateur ,via le microprocesseur au niveau duquel aura été validéWithout intervention of the operator, via the microprocessor at which will have been validated

Le 1er réglage manuel du faisceau lumineux sur le quadrant buccal intéressé par le soin, 1 manual adjustment of the light beam on the mouth quadrant interested in the care,

Une caméra située sur la lampe(en 20 sur la figure 6) prend alors le relais : l'image correspondant à la zone opératoire va etre analysée et mise en mémoire à partir de qq.points caractéristiques buccaux faciaux elle sera réanalysée par le microprocesseur à chaque fois que la zone opératoire sort du champ lumineux avec une correction immédiate de la focalisation, par poursuite automatique de la commande des micro moteurs dans les deux axes directionnels.A camera located on the lamp (in 20 on the figure 6 ) then takes over: the image corresponding to the operating area will be analyzed and stored from qq. facial facial features points it will be reanalyzed by the microprocessor each time the operating area leaves the light field with a correction immediate focus, by automatically tracking the control of the micro motors in both directional axes.

La figure 9 décrit l'ensemble du dispositif:

  • L'image de la zone ciblée par un 1er réglage manuel est transmise par la minicaméra 20
The figure 9 describes the whole device:
  • The image of the target area by 1 manual adjustment is transmitted by the mini-camera 20

Au microprocesseur 19 qui la met en mémoire, lorsque la minicaméra enregistre une variation de l'image, le microprocesseur transmet un signal de commande numérique aux deux micromoteurs 12 et 13 qui corrigent l'angulation de la lampe. le débrayage de ce dispositif qui est assuré par la touche pédale 16 peut etre complété par un interrupteur situé sur la mini caméra . seconde option: une gestion télécommandée de la lampe par le dentiste par le biais de la pédale 5 située au sol qui commande l'instrumentation générale (unit dentaire en figure1.)At the microprocessor 19 which puts it in memory, when the minicamera records a variation of the image, the microprocessor transmits a digital control signal to the two micromotors 12 and 13 which correct the angulation of the lamp. the disengagement of this device which is provided by the pedal button 16 can be completed by a switch located on the mini camera. second option: a remote control of the lamp by the dentist through the pedal 5 located on the ground which controls the general instrumentation (dental unit in figure 1 .)

La figure 7 schématise le bloc pédale classique muni du rhéostat 6 d'activation et de contrôle des instruments rotatifs et d'une touche joystick 15 dédiée aux micro moteurs de la lampe. cette touche est présentée ici en position neutre, afin de permettre le réglage manuel de l'orientation du faisceau lumineux, en début d'intervention au niveau de cette lampe. La touche interrupteur 16,assure le débrayage de la commande automatisée , précédemment décrite en première option.The figure 7 schematically the conventional pedal block provided with the rheostat 6 for activation and control of rotary instruments and a joystick button 15 dedicated to the micro-motors of the lamp. this key is presented here in neutral position, to allow manual adjustment of the orientation of the light beam at the beginning of intervention at this lamp. The switch key 16 disengages the automated control previously described in the first option.

Les deux autres touches assurant des fonctions liées a l'unit dentaire ne seront pas décrites ici. Pour chaque correction de l'orientation du faisceau lumineux, l'opérateur envoie soit un signal électrique par l'intermédiaire du câble 17 ,soit un signal radio par technique sans fil 18.The other two keys providing functions related to the dental unit will not be described here. For each correction of the orientation of the light beam, the operator sends either an electrical signal via the cable 17, or a radio signal by wireless technique 18.
