<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a surgical console with a panel display mounted on a three-axis gimbal which permits articulation of the panel display via swivel, spin and tilt axes. <P>SOLUTION: This surgical console 10 has the panel display 12 mounted on the three-axis gimbal which permits articulation of the panel display via swivel, spin and tilt axes. An articulation mechanism 16 uses two helix cable wraps with a single continuous cable that allows for large rotation of the panel display. The continuous cable simplifies the structure to minimize electric signal noise to the panel display 12. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO |
