Original Abstract Submitted
A medical apparatus comprises: an operating console, a limiting mechanism, and a manual release mechanism. The limiting mechanism releases the limitation on movement of the operating console in a case where a pressing force is applied to the manual release mechanism. The manual release mechanism comprises: a handle, a conversion portion, and a base portion. The handle is provided with a first guide portion. The base portion is provided with a second guide portion that cooperates with the first guide portion. The handle moves linearly in a direction substantially perpendicular to the base portion under guidance of the first guide portion and the second guide portion in a case where the pressing force is applied to the handle. Thus, a smooth linear motion of the handle can be ensured to provide a good feeling of operation, helping to improve the user experience.
