  • Patent number: 8783885
    Abstract: An operating light (36) and a process are provided for lighting an operating table via an operating light (36). The operating light (36) includes at least one first radiation source (1), which is suitable for producing light (12) with locally different, especially radially outwardly decreasing color temperature distribution (18) in a plane extending at right angles to the work area.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: July 15, 2011
    Date of Patent: July 22, 2014
    Assignee: Dräger Medical GmbH
    Inventors: Hanno Kretschmann, Christian Elsenbach, Patrick Wegner
  • Patent number: 8424833
    Abstract: A suspension device (10) with a carrier segment (12) and with at least one extension arm (14) that can be mounted pivotably thereon for moving in space devices (16, 18) that can be mounted thereon. The carrier segment (12) has a base part (24) for mounting the suspension device (10) at a mounting site. The suspension device has one or more quick-release rod modules (26) that can be detachably connected with the base part (24). The quick-release rod module (26) or each quick-release rod module (26) has a bus module (32), which contacts either a bus module (32) of a quick-release rod module (26) already embraced by the suspension device (10) or a contact device in the base part (24) when a quick-release rod module (26) is mounted on the suspension device (10).

  • Patent number: 8366297
    Abstract: An operating light is provided with a basic body (1) with flat contact surfaces (2), which are oriented with mutually different angular orientations of the respective surface normals to the working point of the operating light. A printed circuit board (6), having an underside which is flat in a premounted position, has rigid sections (8) with flat upper side surfaces pointing towards a working point of the operating light and sections (7) flexible in a preferred direction, which extend between the rigid sections (8). Light-emitting diodes (9) are arranged on the rigid sections of the printed circuit board. A lens holder (22) is provided with optical lenses (13) for the light-emitting diodes (9). The rigid sections of the printed circuit board can be placed on the contact surfaces (2) of the basic body (1) in a positive-locking manner in a mounted position, so that the light-emitting diodes (9) have lighting directions corresponding to the angular orientations of the contact surface normals.
