DENTAL SYSTEM Russian patent published in 2007 - IPC A61C1/02 

FIELD: instrument engineering; medical equipment.

SUBSTANCE: system has control unit, drives disposed in cells of holder fixed onto case of control unit, light energy irradiator mounted in control unit, and device for conversing light energy into photocurrent according to number of drives. Stepwise opening is made in holder, which opening communicates with all cells of drives disposed in series. Steps of holder's opening are made to correspond to number of drives with decreasing diameter counting from step being closest to case of control unit. Surfaces of conjugation of neighboring steps are made in form of facets and they are disposed in areas of drives' cells. Devices for conversing light energy to photocurrent are mounted in holder. Inputs of devices are optically conjugated with light energy radiator through facets of stepped opening, their outputs and drives are connected to control unit. Drives are disposed in cells of holder for vignetting light flux from facets of stepped opening to inputs of corresponding devices for conversing light energy to photocurrent.

EFFECT: simplified design; simplified operation of system.
