  • Patent number: 7089612
    Abstract: An operating table including at least three elements which are moveable in relation to each other; at least two actuators, each controlling displacement of two elements in relation to the other; a controller which drives each actuator; a sensor to detect a risk of collision of one of the elements with an obstacle when executing a displacement request of a first actuator; a controller which determines a corrective command order of a second actuator different from the first actuator upon detecting a risk of collision, wherein execution of the corrective command order by the second actuator causes cessation of the detected risk of collision upon subsequent execution of the displacement request of the first actuator; and a display to view the corrective command order.

  • Patent number: 6874182
    Abstract: An operating table including a patient support; a block for supporting a patient's lower back which is moveable in relation to the patient support between a retracted position and a deployed position; an actuator having a first end portion linked to the patient support; and at least one mechanism for adjusting the block between the retracted and deployed positions including a first connecting rod articulatable relative to the patient support, the connecting rod being connected to a second end portion of the actuator for angular displacement and to the block for displacement of the block between the retracted position and the deployed position, and wherein the adjustment mechanism essentially rectilinear displaces the block between the retracted position and the deployed position.
