Fixation lamp for ophthalmological instruments

摘要

[Problem] To increase, compared to conventional devices, the range of motion of the light emitter (fixation lamp) in an external fixation lamp for an ophthalmological instrument and allow movement of the light emitter to arbitrary positions.;[Solution] The fixation lamp (1) has a first arm (A1), which supports a light emitter (2) and is supported by a second arm (A2) via a first joint (C1), and is configured so that the first arm (A1) is able to revolve around at least two axes of revolution (E1, E2) by means of the first joint (C1) and said axes of rotation (E1, E2) are not disposed on the same line. Thereby, the range in which the light emitter (2) can be moved can be increased compared to conventional devices and the light emitter can be moved to an arbitrary position in an arbitrary direction.

主权项

1. A fixation lamp for ophthalmological instrument that is used for getting an examinee to fixate in an ophthalmological instrument, comprising:
a light emitter for getting an examinee to fixate; a first arm having a top end and a second end, wherein the light emitter is provided on the top end and protrudes from the top end; a second arm that supports the first arm through a first joint that connects the second arm to the second end of the first arm, the first joint allowing the first arm to freely swing; a base that supports the light emitter through the second arm, the first joint and the first arm; the first joint having a first relay that is rotatably supported by the second arm and rotatably supports the first arm; a first stopper provided between the first arm and the first relay and preventing the first arm from rotating 360 degrees or more in connection with the first relay; a second stopper provided between the first relay and the second arm and preventing the first relay from rotating 360 degrees or more in connection with the second arm; and a rotation axis of the first arm that rotates in connection with the first relay and a rotation axis of the first relay that rotates in connection with the second arm not being located on the same line, wherein a second joint that is different from the first joint is located between the second arm and the base, the second joint is provided with a second relay that rotatably supports the second arm, and the base supports the second joint allowing the second joint to rotate 360 degrees or more around a predetermined axis.
