DRIVE FOR GENERATING FORCE-RELATED TACTILE FEEDBACK ON AN INSTRUMENT

摘要

The invention relates to the devices providing the tactual sensation by the operation with the elongated instruments in the medical simulators. In the drive the counteraction of the instrument motion is being performed contact-free that allows to increase the precision of the tactual sensations set by the program. An instrument's longitudinal movement device and a regulated braking mechanism are realized together in the form of the linear electromagnetic motor 1, and the instrument's rotational movement device and the regulated braking mechanism are realized together in the form of the electromagnetic motor 2, where the elongated instrument 9 with the magnets inside is located inside the linear electromagnetic motor 1, performing the regulated longitudinal motion of the elongated instrument 9, interacting with the rotor of the electromagnetic motor 2.
