  • ABSTRACT An ad usth'si'fibotiligiityiiifiiiifig a plurality of spotlights pivotally mounted on a ring 34 gimballed in a yoke supported from several rotatably coupled arms 16, 18, 24.
  • Each spotlight has a sealed lamp and reflector unit 60 surrounded by a cylindrical casing 104 fitted on its outside with ported cooling fins 54. The fins are enclosed within a cylindrical jacket surrounded by insulating material 48. An externally supplied coolant gas is forced up through the tiered fins, into the casing 104, down over the lamp unit and out.
  • the spotlights for instance in the form of incandescent lamps, are contained in a lamp housing and develop a considerable amount of heat, which raises the temperature of every component in the neighborhood of the incandescent lamp, such as the lamp housing itself, the reflector, and filters and cover plates if present.
  • the components are therefore liable to be damaged, particularly those made of glass, which may crack or shatter. It is therefore necessary to ensure that lamps incorporated in operating theater floodlighting systems are adequately cooled, and it must also be borne in mind that the atmosphere in an operating theater cannot be used for cooling as it may be explosive.
  • spotlights of previously proposed floodlighting systems for operating theaters generally each have a hermetically sealed explosion-proof from the atmosphere outside the projector through a hose. In other projectors the same cooling air is used and is recirculated and cooled with water.
  • a spotlight formed internally with a circuit for the passage of a coolant, the spotlight being adapted so that coolant can be passed through the circuit without ambient atmosphere entering the circuit.
  • a second aspect of the invention resides in a floodlighting system comprising a plurality of such spotlights.
  • the wall of the lamp housing will flow peripherally around Since the spotlight of the invention does not use ambient atmosphere as a coolant, it may be used in areas of an operating theater where there is an explosion haz-- ard.
  • the floodlighting system spotlights are mounted along a gapped ring, there also being a spotlight mounted within the ring, the ring being mounted on a linkage on a swivel pin which is or is adapted to be attached to a support above the system.
  • the support is a ceiling.
  • the spotlights other than the center spotlight are advantageously mounted in holders on the ring, the holders each being tiltable about a respective axis which intersects the points of contact of the holders with the ring.
  • the spotlight in the center of the ring is mounted on an axle of the ring, the axle being mounted between the ends of a fork member which surrounds part of the ring and is also mounted on the linkage, the ring being tiltable about said axle.
  • the holders of two of the spotlights serve to mount the ring on the axle, the spotlight in the middle of the ring being tiltable about the axle.
  • the spotlights other than those on the axle are each tiltable about .a respective axis which intersects the points of contact of the holders with the ring.
  • the spotlight desirably comprises a cooling jacket which surrounds a doublewalled lamp housing provided between its walls with cooling fins, part of said circuit being formed within the walls of the housing.
  • the cooling fins embrace the inner wall of the lamp housing and extend from the inner wall to the outer wall thereof, each fin being provided with an opening for the passage of coolant, the openings of adjacent fins being on opposite sides of the lamp housing.
  • the spotlight comprises a hollow'shell located within the lamp hous I ing and a reflector case in the hollowshell containing an incandescent lamp and a reflector therefor, said circuit being such that coolant can pass into the spotlight, along the outside of the hollow shell between the walls of the lamp housing, back through the hollow shell, and out of the spotlight.
  • the hollow shell is cylindrical and the cooling fins are annulanThe reflector may be elliptically shaped. Coolant is generally passed around the circuit under pressure. It will be appreciated that the lamp housing is cooled first, followed by the parts of the spotlight contained inside the hollow shell which is positioned in the lamp housing. The cooling effect is similar in principle to that of a counterflow system.
  • the arrangement of openings in the cooling fins opposite one another ensures that the coolant which enters a chamber formed between two vertically consecutive fins and the intervening partsof the double the lamp housing in'this chamberbefore leaving through the opening in the next fin above and entering.
  • the space between the external wall of the cooling jacket and the lamp housing is preferably packed with.

  • the hollow shell and the inner wall of the lamp housing may be provided with adjacent openings at respective one ends thereof, whereby coolant can pass from between the walls of the lamp housing to the inside of the hollow shell.
  • the reflector case is held in position in the hollow shell by a locating plate which surrounds a connector at the apex of the reflector case and which is held against the reflector case by at least three spring-loaded pins.
  • the locating plate may be formed with apertures for the passage therethrough of coolant.
  • each spring-loaded pin slidably extends through aligned holes in respective pairs of lugs which project into the interior of the hollow shell, and one end of the spring of each spring-loaded pin bears di rectly against the lug remote from the locating plate and the other end of the spring bears against a collar on the pin.
  • the compression springs function at all times to keep the locating plate in contact with the reflector case. Should the locating plate tend to move against the pins these will yield against the resistance of their springs and slide in the holes of the lugs.
  • the reflector case is supported on abutments of a holder, and other abutments of the holder support a filter in alignment with the reflector, a spring ring being provided to secure the filter.
  • the holder is detachably held in the hollow shell by means of a bayonet coupling.
  • said abutments are provided on depending portions of the holder, whereby coolant can flow through gaps between said depending portions to immerse completely the filter.
