Abstract: A robotic surgical station is disclosed having a wheeled base, a partial-ring shaped structure slidably coupled to the based to be rotatable relative to the base about a horizontal roll axis passing through a center of the ring shape, a patient's bed restrained to a first arcuate segment of the partial-ring shaped structure at a first mount, a plurality of robotic arms restrained to a second arcuate segment of the partial-ring shaped structure at a second mount, and a remote control unit to command one or more of the plurality of robotic arms. The second arcuate segment is rotatable sideways with respect to the first arcuate segment to allow full access to the patient's bed by a surgeon.

Abstract: A surgical support system including a primary telescoping support; and a secondary telescoping support that is telescopically mounted to the primary support and is configured for telescopically mounting a surgical tool thereto, such that such that telescoping of the secondary support with respect to the primary support repositions the secondary telescoping support. The secondary support is mounted to the primary support telescopably along a first telescoping axis and is configured for mounting the surgical tool telescopably along a second telescoping axis that is oriented at a non-parallel angle to the first telescoping axis. The secondary support includes a first mounting portion; a second mounting portion configured for telescopically mounting the surgical tool; and an articulable joint disposed for adjusting the angle between the first and second telescoping axes. The articulable joint is releasably lockable for locking the angle.
