Abstract:
A system and a device are provided for counterbalancing a surgical robotic system that include a rail assembly having a shaft that engages a first carriage and a second carriage via threaded mechanism. A manipulatable arm carries a movable effector; the manipulatable arm is supported by the first carriage. A counter weight is supported by the second carriage with a single actuator. A simplified robotic surgery system results.
