Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a portable, integrated light for attachment to a speculum according to the preamble of patent claim 1.
  • Illuminating the body cavity is an important requirement for the successful use of a speculum.
  • Existing devices use as light source bulbs, which have relatively low light power. Namely, if the light power is increased so that it is sufficient for the illumination of the body cavities, this leads to an undue heating in the examined tissue.
  • LED light emitting diodes
  • Known light devices use light emitting diodes (LED) as the light source. These are connected, for example via a longer connection to a power source. This is disadvantageous, as one has a cable in the work area for a normal examination, which must be respected.
  • a light-emitting diode (LED) is integrated in the medical instrument. There is no light for examining the body cavity as long as the medical instrument is not used.
  • the present invention now has the task of producing a light source, fast and safely attached to a normal speculum as it is commonly used in gynecology and obstetrics but is also used by veterinary medicine.
  • This bulb should be robust against heavy bumps and take up little space.
  • the gynecologist or veterinarian has his speculum with him and if necessary, the little bulbs on his commonly used speculum with little effort and easy fix.
  • This light source should have great light power, do not heat the tissue by heat development and shine even in deep body cavities precisely in the direction to be examined.
  • Contents of the invention is an integrated, portable light, which has neither a light guide with a long connection nor a light bulb with warming effect, but uses a white light emitting (high-performance) light emitting diode (LED).
  • Lamp and power source are in the same housing. It is also quite conceivable that the light intensity can be adjusted by a control device. Also, such a control device can be accommodated without problems in the same housing. It is ideal if the luminaire can be easily and quickly fixed to the handle of already existing, common and reusable specula, for example by means of a compression spring and slide.
  • the luminaire For the luminaire, it is of great importance that there are no openings, gaps and niches that allow contamination by blood and other body fluids. For this reason, all items are integrated in a housing, which is cleanly sealed in the lamp according to the invention.
  • the luminaire must be cleaned with commercially available disinfectants or placed in a disinfectant bath. If, after use, the removal of the illuminant is forgotten inadvertently and the speculum, together with the luminous device for sterilization, is placed in the sterilizer, a stopper prevents the luminaire from exploding.
  • the lamp is made of colored made of bright metal, eg made of anodized aluminum.
  • the light must be small and handy, so that it can be carried in the trouser bag.
  • the impact resistance is designed so that it easily withstands falls on the ground.
  • the integrated and fixed to the holder handle of the speculum small lamp does not interfere with the work area of the doctor and provides direct light into the body cavity. Disturbing shadows fall away and the overview becomes optimal.
  • the lamp ( Figure 1) consists essentially of a cold light source 1, which through a pipe 3 with the Housing 8 is connected.
  • a resistor 2 In the tube 3 is a resistor 2.
  • a housing cover 14 In the housing 8 in which the tube 3 is embedded, is closed by a housing cover 14.
  • a battery compartment 12 In the space formed by the housing 8 and housing cover 14 is a battery compartment 12 are housed in the battery 13.
  • the battery compartment 12 forms with the batteries 13, the power source 12,13.
  • the power source 12,13 the housing cover 14 opposite to the housing 8, a fastening means 6 is arranged.
  • Fig 2 shows how compact the lamp is built.
  • the housing cover 14 is connected to the housing 8 with a thread. An O-ring 9 between these parts seals the interior. The resulting gaps between the housing 8 and the housing cover 14 are closed by suitable means in such a way that no contamination by blood or other humors can occur.
  • the two batteries 13 are held by a compression spring 15.
  • the conductor piece 11 transmits the contact of one pole of the batteries 13 via an electric cable and a resistor 2 to the cold light source 1.
  • the other pole is from the batteries 13 through a cable clamping ring 10 and the corresponding wire connection through tube. 3 led to the cold light source 1.
  • the tube 3 is held in the housing 8 by a clamping screw 4.
  • the fastening means 6 is fastened by means of screw 5 on the housing 8. Between fastening means 6 and housing 8, a pad 7 is arranged.
  • the fastener is adapted to easily and quickly attach the luminaire to a speculum 20.
  • FIG. 3 and FIG. 4. A simple resilient clip made of metal or plastic serves, as shown in FIG. 4, to clamp the luminaire on the speculum 20.
  • a light-emitting diode "LED” is used with white light, which does not give off heat to the tissue to be examined.However, the light source to illuminate the body cavity bright, so that for the investigation with enough light, it is guaranteed to see what one examines.
  • the tube 3, the housing 8 and the housing cover 14 are marked with color.
  • An elegant way for this marking is the use of anodized aluminum for these parts.
  • the tube 3 can be made flexible, so that the direction of the cold light source 1 can be additionally adjusted. However, this is not necessary for the daily use of the lamp.
