Abstract

This paper present a novel design and a kinematic analysis of a variable neutral-line manipulator. Variable stiffness, as well as a high flexibility are the most wanted characteristics for snake like robots. In the last few years in modern medicine, Minimally Invasive Surgery played an important role. In endoscopic surgery or single-port surgery the main goals are: reducing the operative and post-operative stresses for the patients, fast healing process, reducing the number of days of hospitalization. The paper presents the design and some considerations of a snake like robot unit, followed by preliminary simulation of the proposed model.
