  • Publication number: 20240285371
    Abstract: Various devices, assemblies, components, systems, and methods are provided relating to a delivery system, a connection plate, and an electrical connection system. An example delivery system may include a mount, a movement arm, a delivery portion, and a connection arm. The movement arm may be rotationally connected to the mount at a first connection point of the movement arm and may rotate relative to the mount about a first axis of rotation. The connection arm may be rotationally connected to the movement arm at a second connection point of the movement arm to rotate relative to the movement arm about a second axis of rotation. The movement arm and the connection arm may each be configured to be disposed at least a predetermined minimum height or greater above a ground level at a location of the second axis.

  • Patent number: 8016470
    Abstract: An electrically powered light source including a light emitting diode (LED) having variable chromaticity, which is adapted for use in a dental operatory. A dental operatory lamp includes a thermally conductive housing having a front directed toward the operating area and a rear away from the operating area; a generally elliptical reflector located on the rear of the thermally conductive housing; at least one heat pipe; a plurality of color LEDs projecting light toward the elliptical reflector, the plurality of LEDs being in thermal contact with the at least one heat pipe; and an optical light guide for combining light from said LEDs. Another embodiment of the lamp includes at least two user selectable light spectra, one of said spectra providing white light with color temperature in the range 4000° K-6000° K and one spectra having reduced output in the wavelength range 400-500 nm.

  • Publication number: 20100060121
    Abstract: A modular storage unit for a cabinet or other support structure comprising a support structure and a storage unit movably coupled to a lateral portion of the support structure. The support structure may include a cavity with an opening thereto, the size of the cavity being sufficient to receive at least a portion of the storage unit. The storage unit may be slidably coupled to the support structure via a base member and may be rotatably coupled thereto. The storage unit may be independently rotatable about a vertical axis.

  • Patent number: 7425077
    Abstract: A lamp assembly adapted to cast shadow-free illumination over an area. Typically, a lamp assembly includes a plurality of light modules that are disposed in a spaced apart relationship over an area. Desirably, the lamp assembly is arranged to aim the light output of each module for overlapping summation on a target footprint. Modules generally each include a LED light source, a parabolic reflecting mirror arranged to direct light from the LED, a TIR collimating lens disposed at a distal end of the mirror, and a stray light tube disposed between the LED and a dispersing lens element.
