Abstract: A videoendoscopic support stand includes a cabinet pivotally mounted on a vertical support column and rotatable between first and second positions. A television monitor is disposed on a tray supported on an arm pivotally mounted atop the support column. The television support arm is rotatable between first and second positions which are on the opposite side of the support column from the first and second cabinet positions such that the center of gravity of the entire stand and equipment always lies within the support area of the base.

Abstract: And arthroscopy support stand is disclosed which contains, in a single movable unit, all of the apparatus needed to perform arthroscopic surgery. The stand comprises a wheel-mounted steel cabinet with brakes at the back of the cabinet for immobilizing it. The cabinet has shelves, open at the front, for supporting various arthroscopic surgery appliances. Mounted at the back of the cabinet are two upright, vertically telescoping fluid bag standards which can be lowered separately to change fluid supplies without interrupting the flow of fluid under pressure to the surgical site. A vertical support column is mounted at the front of the cabinet on a pair of vertically-spaced parallel horizontal arms. The arms are pivotally mounted at the middle of the cabinet so that the support column can be shifted back and forth across the front of the cabinet.
