A robotic medical system can include a motorized arm that is supported by a column of the system. The robotic arm can be operated by rotating a link of the motorized arm by actuating an actuator to drive rotation of a rotary joint. A brake can then be applied to the rotary joint to stop rotation of the link. The arm can also include an arbor that can be actuated to increase a torsional stiffness of the rotary joint.

A robotic medical system can include a patient platform. The patient platform includes a tilt mechanism. The tilt mechanism can include a lateral tilt mechanism and a longitudinal tilt mechanism. The lateral tilt mechanism can include a tilt plate and a pivot housing. A linear actuator mounted on the tilt plate can apply a linear force to the pivot housing. The lateral tilt mechanism can also include a first linear guide that extends along a first axis, and the pivot housing can translate along the first linear guide. Application of the linear force to the pivot housing tilts the tilt plate by causing the pivot housing to translate along the first linear guide.

Tilt mechanisms for medical systems and applications

A motorized arm for a robotic medical system can include a shoulder coupled to a column of a table by a translational joint that allows translation of the shoulder along the column, a first link rotationally coupled to the column, a second link rotational coupled to the first link, and an arm support coupled to a distal end of the second link. The arm support can be configured to support one or more robotic arms usable during a robotic medical procedures. The motorized arm can include actuators for driving rotation of the links and arbors that can be engaged to increase the torsional stiffness of the motorized arm. The motorized arm can move the arm support between a stowed position below the table to a deployed position.
