ABSTRACT:
In an operating lamp device comprising a light source a guiding apparatus for the light source is provided which has a stationary position relative to the operating table or treatment chair for directing a light beam towards a certain treatment area and keeping it there. The guiding apparatus offers the light source a spherical cap-shaped area of movement of which the center of curvature coincides with the respective treatment area of a patient. The guiding apparatus might be attached to a movable back support or neck support, but might also be attached to a carrier not mechanically coupled to the operating table or treatment chair. In the latter case control signals generate a motion of the carrier in correspondence with a motion of the operating table or treatment chair.
