20140230221 | Method of Making a Fiberoptic Cable Assembly - A fiberoptic cable assembly includes a cable provided as a continuous length of a bundle of optic fibers enclosed within a flexible sheathing and a rigid or semi-rigid protective pistol-grip handle formed about at least a portion of one of the ends of the bundle of optic fibers. The handle includes a grip section, an elongate extension extending from the grip section, and an end fitting connected to an end tip on the extension. The extension extends from the grip section at an angle in a manner forming an elbow therebetween and providing a pistol grip configuration. Preferably, the elongate extension is of a length multiple times greater than its diameter or width. | 08-21-2014 |
20140126233 | Light Engine for a Fiberoptic Illuminator - A light engine for a fiberoptic illuminator is disclosed. The light engine has a light emitting diode (LED) and collimating optics for gathering, transmitting and focusing light emitted from the LED. The collimating optics is provided by a fused fiberoptic rod having an outer glass cladding which provides a seal for a bundle of optic fibers drawn and tightly packed and fused together. The fused fiberoptic rod has an elongate cylindrical distal end and a frustoconical proximal end forming a fused tapered tip. The fused tapered tip having a proximal end face disposed adjacent the LED for receiving light emitted by the LED. | 05-08-2014 |
20120281429 | Headgear for Mounting Surgical Headlight - Headgear for mounting a headlight on a surgeon's head includes a headband and a stabilizer. The headband encircles the wearer's head and the stabilizer is connectable to a rear section of the headband for engaging and cradling a substantial portion of at least a lower back region of a wearer's head when the headgear is worn by the wearer. The stabilizer includes a peripheral extending portion extending beneath the headband on opposite sides of the wearer's head corresponding to a location of a lower portion of an occipital bone of the wearer's head and a peripheral portion extending above the headband on opposite sides of the wearer's head corresponding to a location of a top of the occipital bone. The headgear can also include a connection element for removably connecting the stabilizer to the headband so that the headgear can be worn with or without the stabilizer. | 11-08-2012 |
