Abstract

A device is provided. The device includes an orbital clutch and brake assembly configured to couple to a C-arm rotation device that enables the C-arm to rotate in an orbital direction relative to the C-arm rotation device. The orbital clutch and brake assembly includes a housing, a roller, and a brake pad. The roller and brake pad are disposed within the housing. The brake pad is configured to directly contact the roller and to not contact the C-arm when the orbital clutch and brake assembly applies a braking force to the C-arm.
