Abstract
An operating table column is disclosed. The operating table column has a base body and an inclination body pivotably supported on the base body, the inclination body pivotable about a first pivot axis. The operating table column also has a tilting body pivotably supported on the inclination body, the tilting body pivotable about a second pivot axis, a first actuating drive assembly that pivots the inclination body about the first pivot axis, and a longitudinally extended, second actuating drive assembly that pivots the tilting body about the second pivot axis. The tilting body is attachable to a patient support surface in a support surface plane. The first actuating drive assembly is connected to the base body and to the inclination body.
Claims20
An operating table column, comprising:
- a base body;
- an inclination body pivotably supported on the base body, the inclination body pivotable about a first pivot axis;
- a tilting body pivotably supported on the inclination body, the tilting body pivotable about a second pivot axis;
- a first actuating drive assembly that pivots the inclination body about the first pivot axis;
- and
- a longitudinally extended, second actuating drive assembly that pivots the tilting body about the second pivot axis;
- wherein the tilting body is attachable to a patient support surface in a support surface plane;
- wherein the first actuating drive assembly is connected to the base body and to the inclination body;
- wherein the second actuating drive assembly is pivotably connected in a first connection area to the inclination body and is pivotably connected in a second connection area to the tilting body;
- and
- wherein the second actuating drive assembly is disposed relative to a tilting plane, which is substantially vertical to the support surface plane and contains the second pivot axis, such that the first connection area connected to the inclination body is at a first distance from the tilting plane on a first side of the tilting plane, and the second connection area connected to the tilting body is at a second distance from the tilting plane on a second side of the tilting plane.
An operating table column, comprising:
- a base body;
- an inclination body pivotably supported on the base body, the inclination body pivotable about a first pivot axis;
- a tilting body pivotably supported on the inclination body, the tilting body pivotable about a second pivot axis;
- a first actuating drive assembly that pivots the inclination body about the first pivot axis;
- and
- a second actuating drive assembly that pivots the tilting body about the second pivot axis;
- wherein the tilting body is attachable to a patient support surface in a support surface plane;
- wherein the first actuating drive assembly is connected to the base body and to the inclination body;
- wherein the second actuating drive assembly is pivotably connected to the inclination body and to the tilting body;
- and
- wherein the pivotable support of the inclination body on the base body and the pivotable support of the tilting body on the inclination body together form a Cardanic support of the tilting body on the base body.
An operating table, comprising:
- a patient support surface;
- a base body;
- an inclination body pivotably supported on the base body, the inclination body pivotable about a first pivot axis;
- a tilting body pivotably supported on the inclination body, the tilting body pivotable about a second pivot axis;
- a first actuating drive assembly that pivots the inclination body about the first pivot axis;
- and
- a second actuating drive assembly that pivots the tilting body about the second pivot axis;
- wherein the tilting body is attachable to the patient support surface in a support surface plane;
- wherein the first actuating drive assembly is connected to the base body and to the inclination body;
- wherein the second actuating drive assembly is pivotably connected in a first connection area to the inclination body and is pivotably connected in a second connection area to the tilting body;
- and
- wherein the second actuating drive assembly is disposed relative to a tilting plane, which is substantially vertical to the support surface plane and contains the second pivot axis, such that the first connection area connected to the inclination body is at a first distance from the tilting plane on a first side of the tilting plane, and the second connection area connected to the tilting body is at a second distance from the tilting plane on a second side of the tilting plane.
