  • Patent number: 8668182
    Abstract: A holding device for fastening a laser instrument, in particular to a magnetic construction, a pipe, a wall rail and/or ceiling rail, and/or a wall, is disclosed. The holding device includes a basic frame, a receptacle device connected to the basic frame to accommodate the laser instrument and a fastening apparatus connected to the basic frame with a first fastening device. The first fastening device is configured to be rotatable around an axis of rotation relative to the basic frame from a first position into a second position.

  • Patent number: 7342732
    Abstract: An optical mount (1) for optical component (2) which has a edge contour (4) relative to extending radially optical axis (A), includes a rigid optical support (3) having an axially oriented stop edge (5), which is suitable for an axial contact with the optical component (2), and at least one flexible spring element which is arranged radially outside the stop edge (5), extends axially on the component side and is curved radially inward. The radial spring element passes at an axial distance from the stop edge into a circumferentially closed jacket sleeve an inner contour (8) of which extends farther radially than the edge contour (4) of the optical component (2).
