Abstract: An instrument stand for supporting ophthalmological instruments. The instrument stand may include a console housing configured to receive differently-configured electronics modules. In addition to, or instead of, the interchangeable electronics modules, the console housing may also be provided with a removable shelf that is resistant to unintentional removal during use. In addition to, or instead of, the interchangeable electronics modules and removable shelf, the instrument stand may also include a support arm having a cutout on different surfaces so that a panel carrying electrical inserts may be positioned in the cutout on one of the surfaces, while covering the unused cutout on the other surface with a blank panel.

Abstract: A surgical table which includes a patient support surface and one or more trays pivotally connected to the patient support surface and selectively deployed to hold objects such as surgical instruments. Each tray has a first condition in which angular rotation of the tray about the axis of rotation is inhibited and a second condition in which the tray is rotatable angularly about the axis of rotation. In the first condition, the tray is capable of receiving and supporting the surgical instruments. This also permits a width reduction of the back section of the patient support surface.

Abstract: A surgical table which includes a patient support surface 16 for receiving a patient, a vertically-movable support column connected to and supporting the patient support surface, and a pair of four-bar linkages for laterally tilting patient support surface relative to the support column. The support column includes a base that is mounted for vertical movement between a first position in which the surgical table is movable on rollers and a second position wherein the base contacts the floor to lock the position of the surgical table during a procedure. One or more trays may be pivotally connected to the patient support surface and selectively deployed to hold objects such as surgical instruments.

Abstract: A lift and tilt chair including both motorized lift capability and motorized tilting capability A hydraulic lift cylinder is provided and operates in conjunction with a motorized tilting system. A seat support is provided having rollers affixed thereto for providing the tilting motion and having the lift cylinder attached thereto for allowing raising and lowering of a patient seated within the chair.

Abstract: The present invention provides a uniquely position adjustable ophthalmic instrument support table for use in conjunction with an examining chair and a lighting system which allows the user to program the desired room lighting independently for each of several inputs such as instrument switches, examination lights or other electrical devices used during an ophthalmic examination. The ophthalmic instrument support table includes a base unit and a table top mounted to the base unit by support structure operates with an infrared control to allow four degrees of freedom to adjust the location of the table top with respect to both the patient seated in the chair and the doctor examining the patient on the opposite side of the table. The lighting control system allows one or two circuits of room lights to be adjusted in intensity and to have this adjustment automatically recalled to set the programmed room lighting condition upon activation of the input.
