Abstract

A surgical cart assembly may comprise a base portion; a plurality of wheels coupled to the base portion; a column extending vertically from the base portion; a manipulator arm coupled to an end portion of the column; a stabilization device coupled to the base portion, the stabilization device moveable between a retracted position and a deployed position; an actuation device to cause movement of the stabilization device between the retracted position and the deployed position; and a biasing element coupled to the stabilization device, the biasing element exerting a biasing force to bias the stabilization device toward the retracted position. The stabilization device may comprise a stabilization surface, the stabilization surface contacting the ground surface on which the surgical cart assembly is supported in the deployed position of the stabilization device, and the stabilization surface spaced from the ground surface in the retracted position of the stabilization device.
