Abstract
Disclosed is a housing for a laser device. The housing is of cylindrical shape and comprises two semi-cylindrical housing halves connected by a hinge. Each housing half includes a cutout in a planar inner portion thereof extending in the housing half parallel to the axis thereof. The cutout base of a lower housing half serves as a mounting surface for the laser device. Between the cutout and a circular outer surface of at least one of the housing halves are disposed canals for a coolant and a cable channel for electric wires going to the laser apparatus. Because the canals are brought into the housing separately, the housing of the invention saves space and facilitates maintenance.
Claims5
A housing for laser apparatus to which a coolant is supplied and which is provided with electrical lines, the housing comprising two semi-cylindrical housing halves which in the assembled configuration of the housing form a cylindrical housing, each housing half comprising a semi-circular outer surface and a planar inner surface having a cutout extending therein parallel to the axis of the housing half, the cutouts of the respective housing halves being oppositely arranged in the assembled configuration of the housing to form a chamber, each cutout including a base and the base of at least one of the cutouts being a planar surface, between the cutout and the semicircular outer surface of at least one of the housing halves are disposed parallel to the axis of that housing half at least two canals for coolant and at least one cable channel for electrical wires, and means for joining the two housing halves together.
