  • Patent number: 11974761
    Abstract: Described are surgical systems comprising a robotic device comprising a cutting tool, an actuation unit having at least two motorized rotational degrees of freedom about respective rotational axes that are substantially orthogonal to each other, and configured for adjusting a position and orientation of the cutting tool relative to each target plane, a planar mechanism connecting the last segment of the actuation unit to the cutting tool, a passive articulated lockable holding arm supporting the actuation unit, a tracking unit configured to determine in real time the pose of the cutting plane with respect to the coordinate system of the anatomical structure, a control unit configured to determine the pose of the cutting plane with respect to the target plane and to control the actuation unit to bring the cutting plane into alignment with the target plane.

  • Patent number: 11633233
    Abstract: The invention relates to a surgical system for cutting an anatomical structure (F, T) of a patient according to at least one target plane defined in a coordinate system of the anatomical structure, comprising: (i) a robotic device (100) comprising: —an end effector (2), —an actuation unit (4) having at least three motorized degrees of freedom, configured for adjusting a position and orientation of the end effector (2) relative to each target plane, —a passive planar mechanism (24) connecting the terminal part (40) of the actuation unit (4) to the end effector (2); (ii) a tracker (203) rigidly attached to the end effector (2), (iii) a tracking unit (200) configured to determine in real time the pose of the end effector (2) with respect to the coordinate system of the anatomical structure, a control unit (300) configured to determine the pose of the end effector with respect to the target plane and to control the actuation unit so as to bring the cutting plane into alignment with the target plane.

  • Patent number: 11607229
    Abstract: The invention relates to a surgical system for cutting an anatomical structure (F, T) of a patient according to at least one target plane defined in a coordinate system of the anatomical structure, comprising: i) a robotic device (100) comprising: —a cutting tool, —an actuation unit (4) comprising from three to five motorized degrees of freedom, said actuation unit comprising at least one portion having a parallel architecture comprising a base (40) and a platform (41) selectively orientable relative to the base (40) according to at least two of said motorized degrees of freedom, —a planar mechanism (24) connecting a terminal part of the actuation unit (4) to the cutting tool (2), ii) a passive articulated lockable holding arm (51) supporting the actuation unit, iii) a tracking unit (200) configured to determine in real time the pose of the cutting plane with respect to the coordinate system of the anatomical structure, iv) a control unit (300) configured to determine the pose of the cutting plane with respec
