Title:
MEDICAL MANIPULATOR AND MEDICAL MANIPULATOR DEVICE USING THE SAME
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2007/136090
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A medical manipulator (20) has a base member (21), a stage (22) constructed to
hold a medical instrument, and actuators (23) for connecting the base member
and the stage together. At least one of the actuators includes at least one deformation
member. The at least one deformation member is deformed according to the amount
of energy applied to the member. The at least one actuator extends and retracts
in its longitudinal direction according to the deformation of the at least one
deformation member. This enables positioning of a general-purpose medical
instrument such as a laparoscope. Also, the medical manipulator reduces a space
that a manipulator device occupies during its operation.
