Abstract
A drape covers robotic equipment in a medical environment to maintain sterility. The robotic equipment has an arm with an end surface which attaches to a tool, such as an active end effector. The drape has an extended drape portion that covers the arm, and a shaped drape portion that covers the end of the arm where the arm is clamped to the tool. The drape is clamped inside the clamp, and where the clamping occurs, the drape has a band of material that is reinforced by being thickened or by including a different material. The shape of the band corresponds to the portion of the arm that is clamped by the clamp.
Claims (26)
1. A drape for covering robotic equipment in a medical environment, comprising:
an extended drape portion of a first material sized to cover a robotic arm; and
a shaped drape portion sized to cover an end surface of the robotic arm, the shaped drape portion having a band shaped to correspond to a portion of the robotic arm that is clamped to a tool,
whereby a clamp is configured to pass over the band and clamp the band when the clamp clamps the robotic arm to the tool such that no part of the extended portion is clamped.
2. The drape of claim 1 , wherein the shaped drape portion is thicker than the extended drape portion.
3. The drape of claim 1 , wherein the shaped drape portion is made of a different type of material than the extended drape portion.
4. The drape of claim 1 , wherein the band has at least one indexing region that is shaped to mate with an indexing region of the clamp.
5. The drape of claim 1 , wherein the shaped drape portion is made of a dielectric material.
6. The drape of claim 1 , wherein the band is a thermoplastic polyurethane.
7. The drape of claim 1 , wherein the band includes a first band portion sized to be pressed by the clamp during clamping, and a second band portion extending away from the first portion to thereby provide strain relief at a transition from the shaped drape portion to the extended drape portion.
8. The drape of claim 7 , wherein the second band portion is tapered.
9. The drape of claim 1 , wherein the shaped drape portion is formed separately from the extended drape portion and affixed to the extended drape portion.
10. The drape of claim 1 , wherein the clamp is a v-band type, the robotic arm including a flange squeezed by a v-band of the v-band clamp, the band having a loop shape sized to cover the squeezed portion of the flange.
11. The drape of claim 1 , wherein the robotic arm includes a flange squeezed by the clamp, wherein the flange comprises the band and the band has a loop shape sized to cover the squeezed portion of the flange.
12. The drape of claim 1 , wherein the shaped drape portion includes a plurality of electrically conductive contacts, and wherein the electrically conductive contacts conduct electricity from a first side of the shaped drape portion to a second side of the shaped drape portion opposite to the first side.
13. The drape of claim 12 , wherein the electrically conductive contacts are integrally formed within the shaped drape portion by 3D printing.
14. The drape of claim 1 , wherein a plurality of capacitive plates are affixed to, positioned within, and on a first side of the shaped drape portion.
15. The drape of claim 1 , wherein the shaped drape portion includes electrically conductive contacts.
16. A drape for covering robotic equipment in a medical environment, comprising:
an extended drape portion of a first material sized to cover a robotic arm; and
a shaped drape portion sized to cover an end surface of the robotic arm, the shaped drape portion having a band shaped to correspond to a flange of the robotic arm and having an indexing shape which corresponds to an indexing shape of the flange,
whereby a clamp is configured to pass over the band and clamp the band when the clamp clamps the arm portion to a tool such that no part of the extended drape portion is clamped.
17. The drape of claim 16 , wherein the shaped drape portion includes a plurality of electrically conductive contacts, and wherein the electrically conductive contacts conduct electricity from a first side of the shaped drape portion to a second side of the shaped drape portion opposite to the first side.
18. The drape of claim 17 , wherein the electrically conductive contacts are integrally formed within the shaped drape portion by 3D printing.
19. The drape of claim 16 , wherein a plurality of capacitive plates are affixed to, positioned within, and on a first side of the shaped drape portion.
20. The drape of claim 16 , wherein the shaped drape portion includes electrically conductive contacts.
