Carrying device
View Patent ↗A carrying device for medical devices provides simple adjustment operation. The carrying device has a height-adjustable bracket ( 1 ) designed in the form of a parallelogram cranking mechanism with a self-locking pneumatic spring ( 13 ). A supply unit ( 21 ) for medical devices is arranged at one end of the bracket ( 1 ). A handle ( 22 ) with an electric release element ( 23 ) is arranged at the supply unit ( 21 ). A valve, which releases the blocking function, is opened within the pneumatic spring ( 13 ) during the actuation of the release element ( 23 ).
1. A carrying device comprising:
bracket legs arranged between a first end-side head piece and a second end-side head piece forming a parallelogram height-adjustable bracket;
a self-locking pneumatic spring between one of said first end-side head piece and said second end-side head piece and one of said bracket legs, said self-locking pneumatic spring having a valve for abolishing a blocking function of said self-locking pneumatic spring;
a ceiling bracket connected at said first head piece;
a supply unit for medical devices connected at said second head piece;
a handle at the supply unit for swiveling the bracket;
an electric release element connected to the handle in one assembly unit; and
a transmission means for actuating said valve, said transmission means being operatively connected between said electric release element and said valve, said transmission means comprising a pneumatic piston releasing said valve, a solenoid valve connected to a compressed gas source, said solenoid valve being opened by said release element and a compressed gas line between said pneumatic piston and said solenoid valve.
2. A carrying device in accordance with claim 1 , wherein said release element comprises a pushbutton provided at said handle.
3. A carrying device comprising:
a first bracket leg,
a second bracket leg;
a first end-side head piece;
a second end-side head piece, said first bracket leg, said second bracket leg, said first end-side head piece and said second end-side head piece cooperating to form a parallelogram height-adjustable bracket;
a self-locking pneumatic spring between one of said first end-side head piece and said second end-side head piece and one of said bracket legs, said self-locking pneumatic spring having a valve switchable between a locked pneumatic spring state and an unlocked pneumatic spring state;
a ceiling bracket connected at said first head piece;
a medical devices supply unit at said second head piece;
a handle at the supply unit for swiveling the bracket, said handle having a user hand engagement area;
an electric release element positioned adjacent to said user hand engagement area for actuation by the user; and
a transmission means for actuating said valve, said transmission means being operatively connected between said electric release element and said valve, wherein said transmission means comprises: a pneumatic piston releasing said valve; a solenoid valve connected to a compressed gas source, said solenoid valve being opened by said release element; and a compressed gas line between said pneumatic piston and said solenoid valve and wherein said release element comprises a pushbutton provided at said handle.
