Abstract
A drive module for an elongate flexible medical device of a catheter robot includes at least two drive devices respectively carrying two pad holders, each drive device being self-supporting and including three drive units which are independent of each other. At least two drive units have a structure preventing rotational movements of the pad holder. That structure includes a drive crossmember, driven by the drive motor, a pad holder crossmember rigidly connected to the pad holder, driven by the drive crossmember, two connecting rods respectively connected by one of their ends to two pivoting points of the drive crossmember set apart from each other, and by the other end to two pivoting points of the pad holder crossmember set apart from each other. The drive crossmember, the pad holder crossmember, and the two connecting rods form a parallelogram deformable at its vertices which are the four pivoting points.
