Stand for a surgical microscope
View Patent ↗The invention concerns a stand ( 1 ) for a surgical microscope, having a stand column ( 2 ) and having at least one pivot arm ( 3 ). The pivot arm ( 3 ) is arranged pivotably about a vertical rotation axis ( 5 ) by way of a rotary bearing ( 4 ). A tilting device ( 6 ) for adjustably tilting the rotation axis relative to the column is provided, wherein the tilting device ( 6 ) includes a bearing shaft ( 8 ) supported by the column and defining a substantially horizontal tilting axis, and an adjustment housing ( 7 ) mounted on the bearing shaft ( 8 ) for rotation about the tilting axis. The rotary bearing ( 4 ) is carried by the adjustment housing ( 7 ).
1. An apparatus ( 1 ) for a surgical microscope comprising:
a column ( 2 );
a pivot arm ( 3 );
a rotary bearing ( 4 ) mounting the pivot arm on the column for rotation about a substantially vertical rotation axis ( 5 );
a tilting device ( 6 ) for tilting the rotation axis relative to the column, the tilting device ( 6 ) including a bearing shaft ( 8 ) supported by the column and defining a substantially horizontal tilting axis, and an adjustment housing ( 7 ) mounted on the bearing shaft ( 8 ) for rotation about said tilting axis; and
a trunnion ( 9 ) fixed to said adjustment housing ( 7 ).
2. The apparatus ( 1 ) as defined in claim 1 , wherein the adjustment housing ( 7 ) is arranged in the column ( 2 ).
3. An apparatus ( 1 ) for a surgical microscope comprising:
a column ( 2 );
a pivot arm ( 3 );
a rotary bearing ( 4 ) mounting the pivot arm on the column for rotation about a substantially vertical rotation axis ( 5 );
a tilting device ( 6 ) for tilting the rotation axis relative to the column, the tilting device ( 6 ) including a bearing shaft ( 8 ) supported by the column and defining a substantially horizontal tilting axis, and an adjustment housing ( 7 ) mounted on the bearing shaft ( 8 ) for rotation about said tilting axis;
wherein the adjustment housing ( 7 ) is arranged in the column ( 2 ); and
wherein the tilting device ( 6 ) further includes two adjusting screws ( 10 a ; 10 b ) arranged opposite one another and associated with the adjustment housing ( 7 ).
4. The apparatus ( 1 ) as defined in claim 3 , wherein the adjusting screws ( 10 a ; 10 b ) extend parallel to the rotation axis ( 5 ).
5. The apparatus ( 1 ) as defined in claim 4 , wherein a trunnion ( 9 ) is guided between the two adjusting screws ( 10 a ; 10 b ).
6. The apparatus ( 1 ) as defined in claim 3 , wherein a trunnion ( 9 ) is guided between the two adjusting screws ( 10 a ; 10 b ).
