A linear drive for a miniaturized optical system, as used for example in an endoscope, includes a stator and an armature. The stator has a coil with two stator pole shoes arranged in axial direction, and two magnetic field sensors arranged at the outer side of the stator pole shoes. The armature has permanent magnets which are polarized in opposite directions, and a center armature pole shoe between the two permanent magnets, and an armature pole shoe at each side of the permanent magnet, opposite to the center armature pole shoe in axial direction. The magnetic field of the outer armature pole shoe goes completely or only in part, dependent from the armature position, through the magnetic field sensor and thus generates a position-dependent signal. This signal can be used for measuring and/or controlling the position of the armature.

A joint assembly for a guiding device comprises a plurality of guiding elements that are concentrically aligned with respect to one another and at least sectionally spherically shaped. The guiding elements are arranged as components of a combined spherical bearing and comprise spherical contact areas. At least two of the guiding elements are integrally manufactured. The at least two guiding elements enable a relative pivot movement therebetween. A guiding device for an instrument incorporates a respective joint assembly. A method of manufacturing a joint assembly involves integrally manufacturing at least to guiding elements that form components of a combined spherical bearing. Uses of a joint assembly involve a use as a spherical bearing in an instrument holder for a simulation system or an assistance system for minimally invasive operations.

A medical instrument (10) comprises an effecting device (40), which is movable in a first direction (48) from a first effecting position into a second effecting position, a pushbutton (60), which is movable manually in a second direction (68) from a first button position into a second button position, and a lever (70), which is pivotable about a pivot axis (78). The lever (70) mechanically couples the pushbutton (60) and the effecting device (40) in such a way that a movement of the pushbutton (60) in the second direction (68) is accompanied by a movement of the effecting device (40) in the first direction(48), which is opposite to the second direction (68). The lever (70) does not have an area that is rotationally symmetrical to the pivot axis (78) in the region of the pivot axis (78).
摘要:
A manipulation device for mechanical connection with connection with the proximal end of a shaft, for forming a medical instrument, includes a plurality of retaining devices, wherein each one of the plurality of retaining devices is designed to releasably retain the proximal end of a shaft or the proximal end of a transmission device for transmitting at least either a force or a torque in the shaft, a manually activatable actuation device, and a coupling device for mechanically coupling the actuation device to the plurality of retaining devices, in such a way that a manual activation of the actuation device causes a release of the plurality of retaining devices.
摘要:
A tool for a distal end or on a distal end of a shaft of a medical instrument includes a basic body, a mouth part which is pivotable about a pivot axis in relation to the basic body, and a bearing which defines the pivot axis, wherein the bearing includes two axle journals which are spaced apart from one another, each with a radial surface which is rotationally symmetrical with respect to the pivot axis.
摘要:
A medical instrument comprises an interface for electrically connecting a drive unit with the medical instrument. The interface has a plurality of electrical contacts arranged in a connecting surface. At least one of the contacts in the connecting surface is electrically isolated from the remaining contacts by a recess or an elevation.
