  • Patent number: 10575903
    Abstract: A treatment device is disclosed for treatment of a living body lumen. The treatment device can include an optical fiber having an emitting part that emits laser light from a side circumferential surface. Two or more grooves are provided in the emitting part at places different in a longitudinal direction of the emitting part. The two or more grooves have two or more kinds of shapes and intensities of the laser light emitted from the grooves adjacent to each other are different. A maximum region of intensity of the laser light emitted from the emitting part is located on one end side relative to a center position in the longitudinal direction of the emitting part. The intensity of the laser light emitted from the emitting part on the other end side of the emitting part relative to a position of the maximum region decreases toward the other end side.

  • Patent number: 10269305
    Abstract: The present invention provides a mirror display that has improved design aesthetics and makes it possible to sufficiently improve visibility in mirror mode in dark environments. The mirror display according to the present invention includes a half mirror plate having a half mirror layer, a display device, a case, and an auxiliary illumination unit that includes an auxiliary light source. The case supports at least the half mirror plate and the display device and includes an outer frame that covers an edge of a front surface of the half mirror plate when viewed in a plan view from a viewing side. The display device is arranged on a rear side of the half mirror plate. The auxiliary light source is arranged on the rear side of the half mirror plate, the display device, or the outer frame. The auxiliary illumination unit is controlled separately from the display device and emits light towards the viewing side when the mirror display is in mirror mode.

  • Patent number: 10207124
    Abstract: A laser light irradiation device is disclosed, which can include an optical guide having a columnar portion and transmitting laser light through the columnar portion; a reflecting portion having a reflecting surface that reflects the laser light transmitted through the optical guide; and a transmitting portion having a window part and disposed between the columnar portion of the optical guide and the reflecting portion in such a manner that one end of the transmitting portion is in contact with the columnar portion, the transmitting portion transmitting the laser light emitted from the columnar portion to the reflecting portion and transmitting the laser light reflected by the reflecting surface to cause the laser light to be radiated to an external through the window part. A diameter of the reflecting surface gradually becomes smaller as distance from a boundary between the transmitting portion and the reflecting portion increases.

  • Publication number: 20160274303
    Abstract: An optical fiber is capable of radiating light radially in a wide range. The optical fiber includes an elongate primary coated optical fiber adapted to transmit light radiated for medical treatment. The primary coated optical fiber includes a core at a central portion and a cladding covering the core, and has an irradiation groove along the circumferential direction thereof. The irradiation groove extends from the cladding to reach the core of the primary coated optical fiber, and has side portions on both sides with respect to the axial direction of the primary coated optical fiber and a bottom portion. The side portions each have a protruding portion shaped to be protrude toward the inside of the irradiation groove.

  • Publication number: 20160089203
    Abstract: There is provided an irradiation device which irradiates light on an inner side face of a biological lumen. The irradiation device includes an optical fiber through which light passes, and a plurality of optical members each having a spherical shape. The plurality of optical members are arrayed in a line along a direction in which light emitted from a distal end of the optical fiber is radiated so that the light is radiated toward the inner surface of the biological lumen.
