    摘要: An apparatus for open-heart surgery includes a platform (20) to support the surgeon's hand (or an instrument) and a cam (30) for reciprocating the platform oscillation around a hinge (12). The cam is shaped so that the pattern of the platform oscillation follows the beating heart's motion. The platform motion triggers a momentary-contact switch on each cycle. The switch drives a pacer, which paces the heart to beat in synchrony. The platform rate is set slightly above the un-paced heart beat rate; this keeps the heart in close synchrony with the platform oscillation and stabilizes its motion. The platform and heart move together, relative motion is canceled, and the surgeon need not compensate. The platform is mounted (10) on an adjustable support and a laser beam is used to angularly align the platform to the heart oscillation. A capacitive sensor (21) detects the heart-to-platform distance, which is used to generate an audible tone proportional to the distance; the tone is used to adjust the platform oscillation amplitude and/or phase for minimum variation of the heart-platform distance.

    摘要: The present invention is an adjustable step stool. The step stool comprises a telescopic body which vertically expands and contracts through the actuation of a scissor assembly disposed therein. The scissor assembly includes a plurality of knee brackets pivotally joining a pair of cross bars and screw blocks. A threaded actuating rod is journaled through one screw block and is threaded through the other screw block. As the rod is rotated, the screw blocks either converge or diverge from one another acting on the knee brackets which, in turn, cause the cross bars to raise or lower, respectively. The rod is driven by an electric motor. The motor is made operable to raise and lower the step stool through the control of a pair of switches. For hands-free, relatively effortless control of the step stool, the switches are disposed beneath yet accessible through an anti-slip mat positioned on the upper surface of the top section. In the event that the motor fails to operate, that is, fails to actuate the rod, the step stool is provided with a hand crank which permits a user to raise and lower the step stool manually. Handles are provided to assist in the transportation of the stool. Anti-skid feet are employed to reduce the risk of the stool moving inadvertently.

    摘要: An apparatus for assisting carrying out exact hand movements, especially those performed by a surgeon during complex micro-surgical operations, comprising at least one support accommodated to the human arm or the hand. There is provided only a single upright column, one end of which is supported in a hinge joint equipped with a first brake device in order to obtain a free, braked mobility throughout a predetermined spatial region or zone with regard to the position and orientation thereof and at the other end such upright column carries the arm support. This arm support is mounted to be freely rotatable about the lengthwise axis of the upright column and is equipped with means located in the upright column for the continuous or infinite elevational adjustment of the upright column and thereby the arm support. There is also provided a second brake device for fixing the desired elevational position of the adjusted upright column and its arm support.
