Abstract
A remote manipulator arm interconnects a manipulator tool (13) to a support (1). The arm comprises three independent motorized arm components (7,17 and 11). Conventional arm components are arranged for end-to-end coupling with a fixed end coupling at one end and articulated coupling disposed in a fork (10) at the other end. The present invention provides at least one intermediate component (17) which further includes at least one fixed coupling (21) arranged at 90.degree. to its end coupling. Such a right-angled component provides greater flexibility in the design of a remote manipulator arm assembled from such components.
