Patent number: 8272737Abstract: A microscope for performing an opthalmo-surgical intervention, in particular for a contactless wide-angle observation of an eye during an intervention, is provided. The microscope has a tube (1a) having an objective and an ocular, a holding arm (1), at which the tube (1a) is attached such that a movement of the objective with respect to the holding arm (1) along the optical axis of the objective is possible, an optical accessory part (8a) between the objective and the eye and a holding device for the optical accessory part (8a). The holding device for the optical accessory part is attached at the holding arm (1) by means of an attachment device (2) in such a way that the holding device does not take part in movements of the objective along the optical axis of the objective. Thereby, when changing the picture angle, a re-adjustment is highly simplified.Type: GrantFiled: September 23, 2009Date of Patent: September 25, 2012Assignee: Dieter Mann GmbHInventor: Dieter Mann

Publication number: 20110001926Abstract: A device for a therapeutic treatment of the eye by means of a laser is provided, which allows a real-time monitoring of the treatment. In particular, the laser light is supplied to the treatment region via a fibre. The monitoring of the treatment happens by means of optical coherence tomography (OCT). To this end the OCT measurement beam and the treatment laser light are coupled in a probe that is put onto the eye and allows to focus the OCT measurement beam on the tissue region inside of the eye that is treated at that moment.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 19, 2007Publication date: January 6, 2011Applicants: DIETER MANN GMBH, HEIDELBERG ENGINEERING GMBHInventors: Dieter Mann, Hans Hoerauf, Christian Winter, Ralf Engelhardt

Patent number: 6266004Abstract: The invention relates to a radar method for an automatic intelligent traffic control (AICC) in a motor vehicle. The use of a frequency modulation continuous wave method (FM-CM) is suggested in order to securely detect the distance to, relative speed and angle of a preceding motor vehicle. It is furthermore suggested according to the invention that when using an A/D converter 5 with 8-bit resolution, the necessary dynamics are generated by means of a level switchover, that the R, V information is generated in FFTs [Fast Fourier Transformations] 6 with blocked R and V-FFTs, that the useful signals are separated from the noise in a detection device 7 by means of a R-dependent adaptive CFAR threshold, that in a track formation 8, the detection is directly assigned to the tracks and that the association of a detection i to a track j is in the process computed as probability r (i, j).Type: GrantFiled: May 20, 1999Date of Patent: July 24, 2001Assignee: DaimlerChrysler AGInventors: Wolfram Pannert, Dieter Mann, Wieland Jacobi, Wolfgang Wittekind

Patent number: 4723380Abstract: An examination unit which is particularly suitable as an ophthalmologic examination unit for the examination of a patient by an ophthalmologist, comprises a storage region for an examination apparatus, wherein the storage region is defined by a wall, and an opening in the wall for passing the examination apparatus therethrough from the storage region. In order to ensure an easy transfer of the examination unit to the patient a support frame is provided in the storage region having a pivot bearing with a pivot axis. A swivel arm is pivotable around the pivot axis from a rest position in which the swivel arm is positioned within the storage region, into an operating position in which the swivel arm has the free end thereof laterally swung out of the storage region through the opening. Furthermore, the examination apparatus is suspended at the free end of the swivel arm.Type: GrantFiled: July 22, 1985Date of Patent: February 9, 1988Assignee: Dieter Mann GmbHInventors: Dieter Mann, Dieter Fornoff, Andreas Ries, Eberhard Klett, Michael Van Suntum
