Definitions
- Control element for a device in particular a medical device
- the present invention relates to an operating element for operating a device, in particular a medical device, the operating element being formed by a so-called touch screen with a touch-sensitive screen area.
- touch screens with a touch-sensitive or touch-sensitive surface have recently become established as input or control elements in a wide variety of application areas, in particular also in medical application areas.
- the success of touch screens in medical technology is due in particular to the fact that the surface of a touch screen as a smooth surface is much easier to clean compared to the individual keys on a keyboard and, accordingly, the hygiene requirements for medical devices can be better met , Accordingly, devices are now used in particular in medical application areas, in which the operation takes place almost exclusively via a touch screen and only individual switches are available for activating the entire device.
- Touch screens in a modern embodiment usually consist of a TFT display and an overlying, touch-sensitive film covering the display.
- a change in an electric field is caused, the evaluation of which can be used to determine at which point the film was touched.
- the display and film is then ensured that information presented on the display by touching the appropriate place of the Fo ⁇ lie can be activated or selected.
- a certain deviation between the touch-sensitive film and the display can occur over time, making it difficult to operate the touch screen.
- the operation of the touch screen can be made completely impossible because the buttons shown on the display are no longer congruent with the corresponding areas of the film or the film button areas are completely outside the screen.
- calibration or adjustment of the touch screen is necessary, in which a certain touch of the film and evaluation of the resultant
- Touch screens are usually supplied together with an adjustment program which enables calibration in the manner described above.
- This adjustment program is usually called up using a keyboard or a mouse connected to the device, which enables this adjustment program to be called up in a simple manner.
- the present invention is based on the object of specifying a possibility of initiating the calibration of a touch screen in the simplest possible way and, in particular, of dispensing with an additional input device for this purpose.
- the object is achieved by an operating element according to claim 1 and by a method for operating a device by means of a touch screen according to claim 7.
- a preferred variant provides that the possibility of activating the calibration routine only exists at the beginning of a so-called service mode, which is usually used to of maintenance work to change or reset the operating parameters of the device.
- a recalibration of the touch screen is not necessary every time the service mode is started, it can further be provided that the user also has the option of skipping the calibration routine.
- a specific area of the screen area is used as a bridging element or bridging key, the activation of which skips the calibration routine and the actual service mode is initiated immediately.
- This bypass key occupies a significantly smaller area compared to the entire screen area and can only be activated by the user if the touch screen is not already misaligned. If this should be the case, then due to the deviations in the position calculation, touching the area of the film lying over the bridging keypad shown would automatically be interpreted by the control of the touch screen to mean that a calibration should be carried out ,
- the solution according to the invention thus opens up the possibility of initiating a calibration of the touch screen without the use of an additional input or activation element. In particular, it is ensured that the call for calibration can still be made even with a completely decalibrated touch screen.
- FIG. 1 is a side view of a C-arm x-ray device which has a touch screen designed according to the invention as an operating element
- Fig. 2 is an enlarged view of the touch screen at the start of the service mode.
- Fig. 1 shows schematically a side view of a C-arm X-ray machine 1, in which a patient P lies on a table T which is transparent to X-rays and which is vertically adjustable with a device (not shown).
- the patient P can be examined radiologically in a wide variety of ways through various adjustment options of the C-arm x-ray device 1 with the x-ray radiation source 2 and the radiation detector 3 and through the adjustment of the table T.
- the control of the various elements of the X-ray device 1 takes place via a computer 4, which is arranged within a schematically represented equipment trolley 5.
- a display 6 which can be used on the one hand to display examination results, but in particular, however, is also used as a touch screen for operating the X-ray device 1.
- a user of the X-ray device 1 must therefore touch the surface of the touch screen 6, which is formed by a touch-sensitive film which rests on a TFT display.
- the electrical signals generated when the film is touched are then analyzed in order to determine at which point on the screen the contact was made, so that the signals are assigned to specific input information that corresponds to the display on the TFT display underneath can.
- the solution according to the invention now allows the calibration routine to be initiated without the need for additional keys. This will now be explained in more detail below with reference to FIG. 2.
- Fig. 2 shows the touch screen 6 at the beginning of a so-called service mode, which was started by pressing the service button 8.
- This service mode is usually only used by the maintenance personnel of the X-ray device 1 in order to set certain operating parameters of the X-ray device 1 and to carry out maintenance measures.
- the calibration query shown in FIG. 2 is carried out each time the service mode is started.
- essentially the entire screen area 10 of the touch screen 6 serves as an activation element for calling the calibration routine. If a user of the X-ray device 1 or the maintenance personnel would like to carry out a calibration of the touch screen 6, it is sufficient to essentially touch the screen at any point. This means that even with a completely decalibrated touch screen It is clear that the calibration routine is called up without the activation of an additional input element.
- the input means previously required for this, such as a keyboard or a PC mouse, can thus be dispensed with.
- the user since a renewed calibration of the touch screen 6 is not absolutely necessary every time the service mode is started, it can be provided that the user also has the option of skipping the calibration routine.
- a certain predetermined smaller area of the Screen 10 is provided as a next key 11 or a bridging key or element, wherein when the corresponding area of the screen surface is touched, the calibration routine is skipped and the actual service mode is started immediately. If the touch screen is thus already sufficiently calibrated, the user can switch to the service mode in a simple manner by touching the continue key 11.
- the advantage of this embodiment is that in the event that the touch screen is decalibrated, the user: automatically activates the calibration routine, even though he initially believes that he has pressed the Next key 11.
- the configuration according to the invention ensures that the touch screen 6 is fundamentally calibrated at the start of the service mode, provided this is necessary due to a decalibration.
- the calibration is then carried out in a known manner, i.e. certain predetermined areas of the screen are touched and the signals generated are evaluated.
- the solution according to the invention thus makes it possible to reliably activate the routine required for calibrating the touch screen. In particular, there is no additional one for this
- Input element required so that the extension according to the invention can be implemented in a simple manner in the control software of the device.
