Definitions

  • the present disclosure relates to adjustable table columns for operating tables.
  • operating table columns comprise a column base for placing the table column on the floor of an operating room, a height-adjustable column shaft mounted on the column base, and a patient support surface arranged on an upper end of the column shaft.
  • the actuators of the table column must be supplied with energy.
  • Schaerer uses a zigzag chain with an axial passage to accommodate cables and hoses.
  • An upper end of the energy chain is attached to an upper section of a height-adjustable column part and below a guide bracket the lower end of the guide chain is fastened to a lower section of the column part, the guide chain being arranged laterally on the column part in such a way that the Routing of the supply lines can vary in a certain, limited area.
  • the position of the guide angle changes and thus also the height of the upper end of the guide chain. In this way, the flexible guide chain with the covered cables is deformed between a compressed S-shaped course and an elongated course.
  • connection unit can be pivoted with respect to the column stem trunk.
  • An energy chain can very well compensate for the up and down movements of the column stem trunk, but not the tilting and tilting of the connection unit.
  • the cable routing according to Schaerer in which the entire length of the guide chain is arranged on a height-adjustable part of the generic table column, leads to a certain amount of space which is required to accommodate the width of the chain.
  • the chain For operating tables that have numerous energy and data lines, the chain must be dimensioned accordingly, which increases this space requirement.
  • the lines should be routed so that they can compensate for both a height adjustment of the column stem trunk and a pivoting of the connection unit without any problems.
  • the disclosure is also based on the task of creating a low-wear and abrasion-free solution for the wiring of an adjustable table column, in which the cable length and orientation of the cable routing can be changed quickly and specifically. According to the disclosure, these tasks are solved with an adjustable table column for an operating table, which has at least one of the following features:

  • the lines can understand the pivoting movements and up and down movements of the connection unit, so that they are guided securely in any position of the connection unit.
  • This table column ensures reliable, safe and precise length compensation of the guided cables and hoses.
  • the push rod can be assigned to the column stem trunk with its lower end via a first joint and attached to the connecting unit with its upper end via a second joint.
