Abstract
Apparatus and methods are described for performing a procedure using a robotic unit. A sterile drape is placed around a drape plate, such that the sterile drape forms an interface between a non-sterile zone and a sterile zone, such that the tool mount is disposed within the sterile zone, and one or more robotic arms and a tool motor are disposed within the non-sterile zone. The tool is driven to roll with respect to the end effector via at least one gear mechanism disposed within the sterile zone, and a motion-transmission portion configured to transmit motion from the tool motor to the at least one gear mechanism, while maintaining a seal between the sterile zone and the non-sterile zone. Other applications are also described.
