description abstract | The parallelogrambased remote center of motion (RCM) mechanism used for robotic minimally invasive surgery (MIS) manipulators generates a relatively large device footprint. The consequence being larger chance of interference between the robotic arms and restricted workspace, hence obstruct optimal surgical functioning. A novel mechanism with RCM, dualtriangular linkage (DTlinkage), is introduced to reduce the occupied space by the linkage while keeping sufficient space around the incision. Hence, the chance of collisions among arms and tools can be reduced. The concept of this dualtriangular linkage is proven mathematically and validated by a prototype. Auxiliary mechanisms are introduced to remove the singularity at the fully folded configuration. The characterized footprints of this new linkage and the one based on parallelograms are analyzed and compared. | |
