The upper sections of the substantially toroidal light housings are made of molded plastic resin reinforced with carbon fibers or glass fibers and the lower sections of the substantially toroidal light housings are made of a clear moldable plastic.

Disclosure herein are aerodynamic surgical lights and methods of manufacturing and use thereof. The aerodynamic surgical lights may include a light head made of one or more substantially tubular light housings. The substantially tubular light housings contain and protect a plurality of LED lights and their respective reflectors that aim a light beam toward the lower side of the substantially tubular light housings. The substantially tubular light housings are vertically elongate. The vertically elongated substantially tubular light housings include upper sections that are aerodynamically curved or pointed to streamline airflow past the light housings. The upper sections of the substantially tubular light housings are made of molded plastic resin reinforced with carbon fibers or glass fibers and the lower sections of the substantially tubular light housings are made of a clear moldable plastic.

Provided are a light source circuit unit that improves light extraction efficiency, as well as an illuminator and a display that include such a light source circuit unit. The light source circuit unit includes: a circuit substrate having a wiring pattern on a surface thereof, the wiring pattern having light reflectivity, a circular pedestal provided on the circuit substrate, a water-repelling region provided at least from a peripheral edge portion of the pedestal to a part of a side face of the pedestal, and one or two or more light-emitting device chips mounted on the pedestal, and driven by a current that flows through the wiring pattern.

A head wearable device includes a headband, a housing attached to the headband, a luminaire, a duct system connecting the luminaire to the housing, a ball joint movably connecting the duct system to the luminaire, and an air moving device, which is adjacent to an exhaust of the housing and is configured to induce an air flow through an inlet in the luminaire through the ball joint, through the duct system, and out of the exhaust of the housing attached to the headband.

A yoke for a suspension system for a medical lamp comprises a rigid yoke member having a first end and a second end, a first revolving joint-component fixed to the first end, wherein the first revolving joint has a first rotation axis, and a second revolving joint-component fixed to the second end, wherein the second revolving joint has a second rotation axis. The first rotation axis is included in a plane and the second rotation axis intersects the plane or is included in the plane, and the first rotation axis and a projection, onto the plane, of the second rotation axis intersecting the plane or the second rotation axis included in the plane enclose an angle (α) of more than 0 degrees and less than 90 degrees.

A medical device suspension system includes a spindle extending along a longitudinal axis and a cable management cover surrounding the spindle. A gap is formed between the cable management cover and the spindle. A hub is rotatably mounted to the spindle and includes a housing. A top hub cover is disposed along the longitudinal axis between the hub and the cable management cover and defines an end of the gap, the top hub cover including a passage in fluid communication with an internal volume of the housing. The top hub cover is rotatable with respect to the spindle about the longitudinal axis. A cable is provided within the gap, the cable entering the gap at a fixed location about the longitudinal axis and passing into the housing through the passage. Rotation of the top hub cover about the longitudinal axis causes the passage to rotate about the longitudinal axis.

A device and method for operating a lighting system varies a characteristic of visible light emitted by a first lighthead according to a predefined profile, and fixes a characteristic of visible light emitted by a second lighthead. A light sensor configured to view a focal area of the second lighthead detects a characteristic of visible light on a target surface over a period of time, and the characteristic of the light detected by the light sensor over the period of time is compared to the characteristic of light defined in the predetermined profile. A mode of operation of the first and second lighthead is determined based on the comparison.

A lighting unit (100) for a medical luminaire (150) has a number of groups of LEDs (110, 110′, 110″) that are connected to a common planar printed circuit board (115). Each LED (112, 112′) of at least one of the groups (110, 110′) is associated with a respective optic (122, 122′) by which a respective LED-optic pair (120, 120′) is formed. The respective optics, based on the structure (328), specify a tilt angle (125) of a central light beam axis (124, 124′) of an emitted light beam of the LED optics pair in a tilt direction (627) of the respective LED optics pair. The tilt direction is defined such that the respective light beam axes of the emitted light beams of the LED optics pairs from the at least one group of LEDs are at least partially skewed in pairs with respect to one another.
