Abstract
A mounting apparatus is provided for an optical examination device secured to a hand grip at the distal end of a light-conducting cable which is connected at its near end to a projector. The mounting apparatus includes a lower mount for supporting the cable receiving end of the hand grip, which mount has a slit in it to permit passage of the cable, and an upper mount which serves as a holding device for either the other end of the hand grip or the optical examination device secured thereto. A sensing device is provided in the upper mount to turn off the light source which illuminates the cable when the hand grip is placed in the mounting apparatus and to turn the source on when the hand grip is removed from the mounting apparatus.
