Abstract

See full text

A mechanical teleoperated device for remote manipulation is provided that is primarily intended for use in minimally invasive surgery. The device generally comprises a slave unit having a number of slave links interconnected by a plurality of slave joints, an end-effector connected to the distal end of the slave unit, a master unit having a corresponding number of master links interconnected by a plurality of master joints, and a handle connected to the distal end of the master unit for operating the mechanical teleoperated device. The device further comprises mechanical transmission means arranged to kinematically connect the slave unit with the master unit such that the movement applied on each master joint of the master unit is reproduced by the corresponding slave joint of the slave unit. In addition, the mechanical teleoperated device comprises improved kinematics and an improved arrangement of mechanical constraints, allowing for improved positioning of the device over a patient, increased workspace inside the patient and ease of workflow in an operating room.
