Disclosed is a biaxial balance adjusting structure for a medical stand apparatus, containing a retaining link mechanism 4, utilizing a parallel link 2, supported on the pivot S of a frame 1; a medical optical device W.sub.1 and/or auxiliary devices W.sub.2, W.sub.3, disposed to one end portion of the retaining link mechanism and a counterweight disposed on the other end portion thereof relative to the pivot S; characterized in that the counterweight consists of a first counterweight W.sub.4 which can be moved in the horizontal direction and a second counterweight W.sub.5 which can be moved in the vertical direction, and that the balance adjusting structure employs a system for moving the first and second counterweights W.sub.4, W.sub.5 interlocking with each other to be closer to or farther from the pivot S in the respective directions. Thus, balance adjustment in accordance with the weight change on the operating microscope side can be facilitated.

A two-stage detection noncontact positioning apparatus comprises a light position-detecting mechanism 3 which includes a first light position detector 15 having a slit 17 at a central location corresponding to an optical axis K.sub.4, and a light position detector 16 for receiving a measuring beam S.sub.9 having passed through the slit 17. The first light position detector 15 can be switchably operated such that while the second light position detector 16 receives the measuring beam, the first light position detector 15 is made inoperative not to detect light. The apparatus also includes an optical mechanism 2 having focusing lenses 13 and 14 provided in a manner corresponding to the first and second light position detectors 15 and 16, respectively. As the measuring beam, a semiconductor laser beam, a He-Ne laser beam or the like is suitably employed, which enables the two-stage detection noncontact positioning apparatus to perform highly accurate positioning without being adversely affected by scattered lights.

An optical filter 11 is fixed in an optical path in a light generation unit 6 to cut out light in an infrared region. The optical filter 11 do not deviate from the optical path, and infallibly eliminate light in the infrared region which becomes heat radiation. The optical filter 11 cuts out light whose wavelength is longer than a threshold wavelength that is longer than 805 nm and shorter than 815 nm, and eliminates heat radiation in the infrared region, which includes a wavelength (approximately 825 nm) which is substantially a first peak P of the radiant intensity of the xenon lamp 10.
摘要:
The medical stands is used to support a medical tool and includes a first parallel linkage to maintain weight balance of the medical tool. The torque transmitting mechanism maintains an attitude of the medical tool and includes a second parallel linkage whose one end is fixed to a body of the medical stand, a connecting element, and a third parallel linkage connected through the connecting element to the second parallel linkage. Links that form the second parallel linkage are made of rigid material. A vibration suppressing mechanism is attached to a longitudinal link of the first parallel linkage and is always resiliently in contact with a longitudinal link of the second parallel linkage.

The surgical microscope system includes a first binocular microscope and a first display device. The first binocular microscope includes an objective lens, a first right ocular lens which provides a first image based on a light flux transmitted through the objective lens, and a first left ocular lens which provides a second image based on a light flux transmitted through the objective lens. The first display device can be disposed opposite to or in alignment with the first binocular microscope, and includes a first right-eye image display surface for displaying the first image and a first left-eye image display surface for displaying the second image. The first display device can be reversed about a horizontal axis extending in a direction along which the first right-eye image display surface and the first left-eye image display surface are located in alignment.
摘要:
A first switch for performing both a weight balancing operation for a main parallel linkage and a weight balancing operation for a supplemental parallel linkage is provided separately from a second switch for only performing a weight balancing operation for the supplemental parallel linkage. An operator can press the second switch during surgery to only correct a slightly unbalanced state of the supplemental parallel linkage in a short period of time, resulting in increased operability of the operation microscope. While the first switch is provided on an operating panel at a stand body, the second switch is provided at a lower part of a distal link located above an operating space for the operation microscope. It is thus easy for an operator to press the second switch during surgery.

A heliostat 5 for use in a sunlight concentration system for utilizing sunlight as energy according to this invention has a plurality of small concave mirror elements 8 and reflects and focuses sunlight reflected off the individual concave mirror elements to a light concentration portion as if upon reflection off a single large concave mirror 9. The angles of the concave mirror elements 8 are changed to define a single concave mirror having a predetermined curvature. When the incident angle of sunlight with respect to the concave mirror is large, the curvature is reduced (like a shallow dish). When the incident angle is small, the curvature is increased (like a deep dish).

An articulated holding arm 2 comprises a first arm 3 and a second arm 5. The first arm 3 is essentially cylindrical as a whole, and is provided with at an intermediate area but closer to a proximal end 6 of the arm 3 a first spherical element 7 in a freely rotatable manner. The first arm 3 is further provided with at a distal end 4 thereof to which the proximal end 6 of the arm 3 is mounted a second spherical element 8 in a freely rotatable manner. Provided between the first and second spherical elements 7,8 is a locking spindle 9 which is moveable in a longitudinal direction of the arm 3 with a very short interval d. Provided at a proximal end 6 of the first arm 3 is a piston 11 which constantly pressurizes via spring means 12 the first spherical element 7 in a direction of a tip of the piston 11 and can move the first spherical element 7 via hydraulic means 14 or pneumatic means toward the proximal end 6 of the first arm 3 against the spring means 12. The second arm 5 is provided with at a distal end 19 thereof a supporting element 20 for supporting an arm A of a person seated D.
