Laser Handle And Fiber Guard
US Patent:
8419718, Apr 16, 2013
Filed:
May 15, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/120866
Inventors:
Lowell D. Hunter - Los Gatos CA, US
Assignee:
AMS Research Corporation - Minnetonka MN
International Classification:
A61B 18/20
US Classification:
606 1, 128898, 606 10
Abstract:
A protective handle for a mobile laser unit wherein the protective handle provides protection to a front section of the mobile laser unit from damage due to bumps and other impacts as the mobile laser unit is transported between treatment locations. The protective handle simultaneously acts to protect an attached optical fiber from damage during transport by limiting a bend radius of the laser fiber. The protective handle includes a U-shaped central segment having rear and forward surfaces defining a fiber optic support structure. The protective handle is attached to the mobile laser unit such that an optical fiber connector is centered within the U-shaped central segment and the optical fiber can rest on the fiber optic support structure.
Spring-Loaded Fiber Coupler Cover With Cam Profile
US Patent:
2008028, Nov 20, 2008
Filed:
May 14, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/152366
Inventors:
Lowell D. Hunter - Los Gatos CA, US
International Classification:
G02B 6/00
US Classification:
385139
Abstract:
A medical laser unit having a spring-loaded coupler cover for protecting a fiber optic coupler from damage when an optical fiber is not coupled to the laser unit. When an optical fiber is attached to the fiber optic coupler, a cam arrangement on the spring-loaded coupler cover minimizes the force applied to the optical fiber by the spring-loaded coupler. The spring-loaded coupler cover includes a hinge assembly mounted above the fiber optic coupler such that the spring-loaded coupler is rotatably positionable between closed and open positions relative to the fiber optic coupler.
Fiber Pole Tip
US Patent:
2008028, Nov 20, 2008
Filed:
May 14, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/120470
Inventors:
Lowell D. Hunter - Los Gatos CA, US
International Classification:
A61B 18/22
US Classification:
606 16
Abstract:
A medical laser unit having a fiber pole tip providing protection and maneuverability to an optical fiber. The fiber pole tip includes a longitudinal channel for retaining the optical fiber so as to limit a bending radius of the optical fiber and prevent the creation of sharp stress risers in the optical fiber. A top surface of the fiber pole tip can include at least one tab projecting over the longitudinal channel to retain the optical fiber within the longitudinal channel. The fiber pole tip is rotatably attached to a fiber pole connected to the laser unit allowing for ease in positioning and manipulating the optical fiber without inducing sharp bends in the optical fiber and to remove stress from the optical fiber.
