Benefits of technology

The technical effect of this patent is to create a safer and more secure way to transfer data and energy for medical instruments, especially dental instruments, that are located close to or in a cleaning or care device. This should happen without connecting the instrument to the device's coupling part. The goal is to make the data and energy transmission reliable and safe.

Problems solved by technology

The transmission of data and / or energy at a cleaning or care device, in particular within the cleaning or care device or out of the cleaning or care device, is challenging, inter alia, due to metallic components of the cleaning or care device or electromagnetic fields existing during operation.
This causes problems such as a reduced transmission range or interference and disturbing of the transmission of data and / or energy.
This solution works well in principle, but it limits the number of instruments that can be cleaned or cared for or maintained and with which data and / or energy can be exchanged to the number of existing coupling parts of the cleaning or care device.
This reduces the risk of small instruments to be cleaned or maintained falling through the recess and being lost.

Embodiment Construction

[0069]FIGS. 1-11 show different carrier elements 1 for supporting or holding at least one medical or dental instrument 2 (see FIGS. 4 and 6) in a cleaning or care device 50 for cleaning or care of the at least one medical or dental instrument 2 in the cleaning or care device 50. The carrier element 1 is provided to be accommodated in the cleaning or care device 50.

[0070]FIGS. 1-4 and 9-11 show a carrier element 1 configured as a tray 6. The tray 6 comprises a plurality of outer walls 10, for example a flat and / or plate-shaped base 12 and a plurality of side walls 13 connected to it and surrounding the base plate 12. The base 12 comprises a large number of openings 14 or screen openings which serve as a passage for a cleaning or care product. The openings 14 are preferably round, oval or polygonal, the corners of which are all arranged on a common circumference.

[0071]FIGS. 5-8 show a carrier element 1 in the form of a cassette 7. The cassette 7 comprises a plurality of outer walls 10...

Abstract

A carrier element for supporting at least one medical or dental instrument in a cleaning or care device, wherein the instrument comprises a first transmitting and receiving unit for wireless transmission of electromagnetic radiation having data and / or energy with a second transmitting and receiving unit. A coupling antenna is provided on the carrier element, which receives and in turn emits the electromagnetic radiation wirelessly transmitted between the first and second transmitting and receiving units in order to support the wireless transmission of the electromagnetic radiation between the first transmitting and receiving unit and the second transmitting and receiving unit. A method for wireless transmission of electromagnetic radiation with a corresponding carrier element is also described.

Description

CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION[0001]The present application claims priority from pending European Patent Application No. 19185658.2, filed Jul. 11, 2019, which is incorporated herein by reference.FIELD[0002]The present application relates to a carrier element for supporting at least one medical or dental instrument in a cleaning or care device and a method for the wireless transmission of electromagnetic radiation comprising data and / or energy through such a carrier element.DESCRIPTION OF PRIOR ART[0003]A coupling device for the wireless transmission of data and / or energy between a medical, in particular dental, instrument and a coupling part which can be connected thereto is known from the published application US 2014 / 0212833 A1. This coupling part can also be arranged inside a cleaning or care device, for example in a chamber, so that data and / or energy can be transmitted wirelessly between a medical, in particular dental, instrument and the cleaning or care device.[0004]...
