Abstract

Apparatus is provided, comprising first and second rails () and a pneumatic motor assembly (). The assembly comprises a first motor subassembly (), comprising a first-motor subassembly locking balloon (), which locks the first rail to the first motor subassembly by inflation thereof; and a first-motor subassembly moving balloon (), which moves the first rail by a mechanism of either inflation or deflation of the first-motor subassembly moving balloon, when the first-motor locking balloon is inflated. Assembly () additionally comprises a second motor subassembly (), comprising a second-motor assembly locking balloon (), which locks the second rail to the second motor subassembly by inflation thereof; and a second-motor subassembly moving balloon (), configured to move the second rail by a mechanism selected from either inflation or deflation of the second-motor subassembly moving balloon, when the second-motor subassembly locking balloon is inflated. Other applications are also provided.
