Abstract
A device (1; 26) for use in a medical treatment room includes at least one control unit (2, 6; 18) designed as a light guide and at least one light source (3, 3′; 21) which emits light with a wavelength between 380 nanometers and 420 nanometers, particularly 405 nanometers, and is arranged in such a manner that emitted light is coupled into the light guide. The light guide is designed in such a manner that light exiting the light guide again at least partially illuminates the surface of the control unit (2, 6; 18).
Claims22
A device for a medical treatment room, the device comprising
- a control unit comprising a control unit surface;
- a light guide defining at least a portion of the control unit surface;
- and
- a light source, which light source emits light with a wavelength between 380 nm and 420 nm, and is arranged in such a manner that emitted light from the light source is coupled into the light guide, wherein the light guide is designed in such a manner that light exiting the light guide at least partially transilluminates the control unit surface of the control unit.
A medical device comprising a control unit comprising:
- a control unit surface;
- a light guide defining at least a portion of the control unit surface;
- and
- a light source emitting light with a wavelength between 380 nm and 420 nm, the light source being coupled with the light guide and the light guide configured to transilluminate the control unit surface of the control unit with the light emitted from the light guide.
A medical arrangement comprising:
- a medical device;
- a light source arranged one of in and on said medical device, said light source emitting light with a wavelength between 380 nm and 420 nm;
- a light guide receiving the light from said light source;
- a control surface on said medical device for operating said medical device, said control surface being arranged as a surface of said light guide, said light guide being arranged to pass the light from said light source from inside said light guide through said control surface.
