  • Publication number: 20100125286
    Abstract: A surgical positioning device comprises a base, an upper moving structure, a lower moving structure, an auxiliary operating element, and a plurality of encoders. The upper moving structure and the lower moving structure are coupled to the base individually, such that the upper moving structure and lower moving structure may move on a first plane and a second plane, respectively. The first plane is substantially parallel to the second plane. Each of the upper moving structure and lower moving structure comprise a holder respectively for holding the auxiliary operating element. The plurality of encoders measure the movement of the moving elements of the upper moving structure and the lower moving structure. A surgical tool may be adjusted and positioned by operating the auxiliary operating element to move the upper moving structure and the lower moving structure on the different planes, respectively.
