Lever Handpiece
Dental Foot Control
Typical foot controls include a single lever that controls the speed of an air-powered or electrically-powered handpiece. Single-lever foot controls suffer from the disadvantage that they may be actuated from essentially a single position, so that as the dental professional moves around the patient it may be necessary to move the foot control. In addition, dual-lever foot controls are available, but they suffer from essentially the same problem. Various attempts have been made to address this problem by, for example, providing an actuator for the foot control that may essentially be actuated from any position around the foot control. Currently there are available foot controls with a disk actuator (a low angle cone, disposed over the base of the foot control) that provides increased accessibility for the dental professional.
It has been found that the cord connecting these prior art foot controls (often called"rheostats"in the art) to the dental instrument and its point of connection to the foot control itself pose problems for the dental professional operator. The cord, for example, usually runs from a cabinet behind the patient to the control, and, therefore, lies between the dentist and the dental assistant on the floor. This space is often crowded and limited, due to casters, feet, and other cords. The operator (often the dentist) is constantly moving the rheostat as he or she changes positions. In addition, the design of many available dental foot controls dictates that the point of connection of the cord to the foot control (rheostat) is not usable by the operator's foot. This forces the operator to shift the foot control to a different position when the cord and its connection are"in the way." Summasy of tlze Invention Among the various features and advantages of the present invention may be noted the provision of an improved foot control that reduces clutter on the floor between the dental professional (s) and the patient.
