Definitions

  • This invention relates generally to the field of surgical consoles and, more particularly, to microsurgical consoles.
  • the surgeon uses a variety of pneumatic and electronically driven microsurgical handpieces.
  • the handpieces are operated by a microprocessor-driven surgical console that receives inputs from the surgeon or an assistant by a variety of peripheral devices, such as footswitches and infrared remote control devices.
  • peripheral devices such as footswitches and infrared remote control devices.
  • footswitches must be moved when the console is moved and can be heavy and bulky.
  • some prior art consoles provided a hook or some other handing mechanism on the back of the console, these exposed hooks did not protect the footswitch or the footswitch cabling.
  • Another device described in U.S. Patent Publication No.
  • the present invention improves upon the prior art surgical consoles by providing a surgical console containing a protective drawer sized and shaped to receive a footswitch or other peripheral device.
  • the electrical/communications connection between the peripheral device and the console is contained internally to the console.
  • the drawer protects the peripheral device and any cabling associated with the peripheral device and provides a convenient and safe way of moving the peripheral device along with the console.
  • the internal electrical/communications connection allows the device to be stored in the drawer without disconnecting the device from the console.
  • one objective of the present invention is to provide a surgical console having a safe and convenient mechanism for moving peripheral devices along with the surgical console.
  • Another objective of the present invention is to provide a surgical console having a protective drawer sized and shaped to receive a footswitch or other peripheral device.
  • FIG. 1 is a perspective view of the surgical console and peripheral device of the present invention showing the drawer in the closed position.
  • FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the surgical console and peripheral device of the present invention showing the drawer in the open position.
  • FIG. 3 is a perspective view of the surgical console and peripheral device of the present invention showing the drawer in the open position and the peripheral device stored within the drawer.
  • FIG. 4 is an exploded assembly view of the surgical console of the present invention.
  • Surgical console 10 of the present invention may be any suitable console, such as the INFINITITM surgical system console, as seen in FIGS. 1 and 2, commercially available from Alcon Laboratories, Inc., Fort Worth, Tex. Exterior 11 of body 13 of console 10 contains drawer 12 that is received on the front of console 10 . Drawer 12 may be attached to body 13 by any suitable, hinged attachment device, such as four bar linkage 14 . As best seen in FIG. 2, removal of drawer 12 from console 10 may provide access to removable panel 16 . Removing panel 16 may provide for service access to the interior of console 10 , for example, access to battery 18 .
  • any suitable console such as the INFINITITM surgical system console, as seen in FIGS. 1 and 2, commercially available from Alcon Laboratories, Inc., Fort Worth, Tex.
  • Exterior 11 of body 13 of console 10 contains drawer 12 that is received on the front of console 10 .
  • Drawer 12 may be attached to body 13 by any suitable, hinged attachment device, such as four bar linkage 14 . As best seen
  • Drawer 12 may be of any size or shape, but is preferably sized and shaped to receive a peripheral device, such as footswitch 20 and associated cabling, which are normally external to body 13 .
  • drawer 12 may contain a plurality of notches 22 that allows cable 24 associated with device 20 to exit drawer 12 when drawer 12 is closed. While a plurality of notches 22 are shown, and such plurality allows the cable to exit drawer 12 in a variety of positions, one skilled in the art will recognize that only one notch 22 is required.
  • Cable 24 contains electrical wiring so as to allow device 20 to communicate with console 10 and receive power from console 10 . As best seen in FIGS. 2 and 3, cable 24 connects on one end to device 20 , and on the other end to console 10 through connection 26 internal to console 10 . Such a construct allows device 20 to be stored in drawer 12 without disconnecting cable 24 from console 10 .
