Publication number: 20230355325Abstract: A surgical system according to at least one embodiment of the present disclosure includes an interface block disposed at a distal end of a robot arm and an end-effector block that attaches to the interface block via a nut. For example, the interface block may include a threaded rod that extends a distance from a mount surface of the interface block. Accordingly, the end-effector block may include a mount hole that passes through the end-effector block, where the nut threadedly engages with the threaded rod through the mount hole to clamp the end-effector block against the interface block. In some examples, a sterile drape may be used to provide a sterile barrier between the surgical system and a patient. Additionally, a liner plate may be used with the surgical system, such that an area of the sterile drape is disposed between the liner plate and the mount surface.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 3, 2022Publication date: November 9, 2023Inventors: Ziv Seemann, Gal Barazani, Nir Ofer, Amir Keret, Dvir Kadshai, Adam David Glaser, Daniel Paxton Wall
