ABSTRACT:
A beam deflecting assembly in a laser device for precision manual control of the point of impact of a laser beam on a selected target site. The assembly includes a pivotable joy-stick universally coupled to an angled manipulator arm which in turn is pivotably connected to a mirror mount in which a beam deflecting mirror is mounted. The mount is rotatable about a vertical axis and includes a yoke for pivoting the mirror about a horizontal axis. Deflection of the joy-stick in the horizontal direction results in rotation of the mount and, independently, deflection in the vertical axis results in pivoting the mirror mount about the horizontal axis. The components of the assembly are dimensioned such that a movement in the free end of the joy-stick is reflected in a corresponding displacement in angle and distance in the point of impact of the delivered laser beam on a selected target plane to give the operator of the laser device a sense of direct control of the beam.
