Definitions

  • ABSTRACT Fomig Application y Dam The invention concerns a device, especially for Apr. 22 1969 Sweden ..5696/l969 dentists Comprising an y pp ratus and an operation lighting.
  • these two 52 us. c1 250/90, 32/22 means are mounted'in a common In this casing [51] on /16 the two means arefacin'g two different directions, so [58] Field of Search ..250/90, 91, 92, 85, that a of h be brought into active Position 250/88; 313/; 240/l A; 128/395, 396; by turning the casing, which for this purpose is 32/22 preferably pivotally mounted on a known supporting arm.
  • the present invention which is based on the above named study of the equipment of a dentist, yields on the contrary a gain as well in space economy as in efflciency'by an important shortening of the pre-heating time for the apparatus, without necessitating therefore the removal of the operation lighting or of the X-ray apparatus from the space within immediate reach of the dentist or his assistant.
  • Most essential for this purpose is, according to the invention, that the X-ray apparatus and the operation lighting are combined within one unit by mounting into a common support forming a casing for the device.
  • the X-ray apparatus and the operation lighting are formed into one unit with the X-ray apparatus and the operation lighting mounted in different directions in a common mount, which in a manner known per se, is supported by and rotatably connected with an articulated supporting arm.
  • the advantage is obtained, that only one single supporting arm system is necessary, which makes the device cheaper and yields a .better economy of space.
  • the rotatability relative to the suspending arm permits, when the casing presents an appropriate handle, to turn the operation lighting away and to bring the X-ray apparatus to a position of use and vice versa in one single operation.
  • the apparatus By forming the mount into a casing for the unit the apparatus has a pleasing appearance and is easy to keep clean. In order to obtain the necessary ventilation of this casing at least one free opening is provided therein.
  • FIG. 1 is a side view of one embodiment of the device, according to the invention, comprising an X- ray apparatus and an operation lighting.
  • FIG. 2 shows a diagrammatical section through this apparatus.
  • FIGS. 3 and 4 show two opposite end views one from the side of the X-ray apparatus and the other from the side of the operation lighting.
  • the device comprises an X-ray apparatus 1 and an operation lighting 2. These two are, as best shown in FIG. 2, mounted into a common mount 3 and can for the rest be of any appropriate known type. By their mounting in the common mount, which can be effected in any appropriate manner, the X-ray apparatus and the operation lighting are combined into a unit E.
  • the X-ray apparatus 1 and the operation lighting 2 are mounted into the common mount 3 with the objective 4 and respectively the reflector 5 with its incandescent element 6 directed in practically directly opposite directions. It is, however, also possible to mount the X-ray apparatus and the operation lighting in such positions relative to each other that they form another angle with each other than about l, e.g.
  • the mount 3 illustrated has the form of a casing for the device and this is, in order to obtain the desired adjustability for use, provided with a link pivot 7 connected with a supporting arm 8, of which only a part is shown, and which can be of any appropriate type and itself have articulations.
  • the device has preferably an adjusting handle 9.
  • slots 10 which when using the operation lighting are preferably open rearwards and upwards.
