Abstract: The invention relates to a laser handpiece 1, an exchangeable fiber-optic insert 10, and a control unit 70 therefor. The laser handpiece 1 comprises a optical waveguide 35, which is connected to a light coupling site in a base member 21 and in which the application element 10 for laser light is exchangeably attached to the base member 21. The base member 21 is mounted in a sleeve-type grip 3 for axial displacement therein. The light guide 10 can be wound around a control device 70 which has an annular gap 73 for this purpose and a lower housing part 75 which is offset from an upper housing part 74. An exchangeable fiber-optic insert 10, 27 acting as an application element is provided with a sleeve 80 serving as protection during transportation and as an assembling tool.

Abstract: There is disclosed a rack with receptacles for medical forceps. The forceps comprise a forceps jaw at the distal end of a shank and a handle with two scissor type grips which can be spread apart for opening the forceps jaw. To each of the receptacles arranged parallel to one another, in each case, there are allocated two grip supports fixing the grips in their spread apart position, a shank support for the shank and two lateral supports for the handle. This achieves the object that after the insertion into the rack has been effected, the opened forceps jaw parts cannot close.

Abstract: The invention relates to a holding arm system, particularly for holding surgical instruments in the region of an operation, with a holding arm incorporated into arm segments and into hinge joints connecting these. The holding arm at the proximal end is fastened to a rail which is guided in a horizontal position on the operating table. Each arm segment comprises straight-lined tube segments as outer sleeves and, in each arm tube, a shaft which is axially rotatable relative to the arm tube and which, with conical gearwheels on the end faces, engages into the shaft of the repective connecting arm segment. A fastening device is operable from a single arm segment and locks the whole holding arm by way of a braking device which engages at a defined location within the arm tube and by these means prevents the rotating of the shafts, connected with a positive fit, in the arm segments.
