High-availability wireless operator control device for medical systems
First Claim
1. A system for medical diagnosis or therapy, the system comprising:
- an apparatus for medical diagnosis or therapy system, the apparatus including a control unit operable to convert at least one control signal into at least one function of the apparatus;
at least one operator control device operable to generate the at least one control signal corresponding to the at least one function of the apparatus;
a signal transmission device for wireless transmission of the at least one control signal from the at least one operator control device to the control unit; and
at least one console adapted for detachably engaging the at least one control device, the at least one console being attached to the apparatus,wherein the signal transmission device has at least one first transmission unit in communication with the at least one operator control device and at least one second transmission unit in communication with the control unit, andwherein a wireless transmission path is between the at least one operator control device and the at least one console, the wireless transmission path being a substantially interference-free transmission path inside a shielded conduit between the at least one operator control device and at least one console.

Abstract
An apparatus for medical diagnosis and therapy systems has at least one operator control device generating at least one control signal corresponding to at least one function of the apparatus, a control unit for converting the at least one control signal into the at least one function of the medical apparatus, a signal transmission device for wireless transmission of the at least one control signal from the at least one operator control device to the control unit of the medical apparatus, and at least one console adapted for detachably engaging the at least one control device. The signal transmission device has at least one first transmission unit in communication with the at least one operator control device and at least one second transmission unit in communication with the control unit. At least one interference-free transmission path is established when the at least one control device is engaged with the at least one console.
