  • Medical care units for power supply and/or data transmission
    Patent number: 8964359
    Abstract: A medical care unit provides power supply or data transmission in medical apparatuses. In particular, current consumers and data transmission apparatuses are slidable along a coupling device of the medical care unit. The medical care unit includes an oblong support that includes the coupling device, which extend along the support and include at least two electrically insulated bus bars continuously extending in the coupling device. At least two bus bars are formed as power supply bus bars, at least one bus bar is formed as a data transmission bus bar, the coupling device as a hollow bar is formed with an opening along its longitudinal direction, and the power supply bus bars and the data transmission bus bars are arranged inside the hollow bar.
