Abstract
Support systems for handpieces are provided. The support system includes a boom assembly having a rigid anchor base and a flexible rod having proximal and distal ends, and a connection assembly having a proximal end configured to couple to the distal end of the flexible rod and a distal end configured to couple to the handpiece. The flexible rod is pivotally secured at the proximal end thereof to the anchor base, and the flexible rod has a flexibility that increases from a distal end to the proximal end thereof. The connection assembly is configured to enable the handpiece to rotate in at least two degrees of freedom. The boom assembly is configured to support the connection assembly and the handpiece such that the connection assembly and the handpiece rest in a neutral position.
