Patent number: 11737843Abstract: A robotic surgical system has a user interface with a control arm that includes a passive axis system for maintaining degrees-of-freedom of a gimbal rotatably supported on the control arm as the gimbal is manipulated during a surgical procedure. The control arm includes a swivel member, a first member, and a second member. The swivel member is rotatable about a first axis. The first member rotatably coupled to the swivel member about a second axis that is orthogonal to the first axis. The second member rotatably coupled to the first member about a third axis that is parallel to the second axis. The gimbal rotatably supported by the second member about a fourth axis that is orthogonal to the third axis. The passive axis system correlating rotation of the swivel member about the first axis with rotation of the gimbal about the fourth axis.Type: GrantFiled: August 11, 2021Date of Patent: August 29, 2023Assignee: Covidien LPInventors: William Peine, Cameron Cecil

Patent number: 11446099Abstract: A control arm for a robotic surgical system includes a base, a swivel member, a vertical member, a horizontal member, and a drive mechanism. The swivel member is rotatably supported on the base about a first axis of rotation. The vertical member is pivotally supported on the swivel member about a second axis of rotation. The horizontal member is pivotally supported by the vertical member about a third axis of rotation. The drive mechanism is disposed on the base and is configured to independently rotate the swivel member about the first axis of rotation, to pivot the vertical member about the second axis of rotation, and to pivot the horizontal member about the third axis of rotation.Type: GrantFiled: June 2, 2017Date of Patent: September 20, 2022Assignee: COVIDIEN LPInventor: Cameron Cecil

Publication number: 20210022821Abstract: A mobile surgical control console is provided and includes a base housing, a lower frame assembly, a plurality of vertical supports, a monitor, and an upper frame assembly. The lower frame assembly further includes a proximal end, a distal end and an opening defined therethrough which extends through the proximal end thereof. The lower frame assembly is coupled to the base housing. The plurality of vertical supports each have an inferior end and a superior end, and each vertical support is attached to the base housing. The monitor is attached to the superior end of each vertical support. The upper frame assembly includes an upper frame and a mobile section. The upper frame includes a proximal end, a distal end and an opening defined therethrough. The upper frame is supported on each vertical support. The mobile section is supported by the upper frame.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 5, 2018Publication date: January 28, 2021Inventors: Andres Chamorro, Cameron Cecil, William Peine
