Surgical cart supporting one or more surgical robotic arms and interface moveably interconnecting surgical cart with surgical table

A combination of a surgical table, a surgical cart supporting at least two surgical robotic arms, and an interface for moveably interconnecting the surgical cart with the surgical table, the combination comprising:

• the surgical table comprising a first end, an opposite second end, a longitudinal cross-member extending between the first end and the second end, and at least one patient support portion being configured to support a patient thereon;
• the surgical cart comprising:
• a base portion;
• and
• a first surgical robotic arm and a second surgical robotic arm of the at least two surgical robotic arms supported by the base portion, the first surgical robotic arm including at least an end portion, and the second surgical robotic arm including a first arm portion, a second arm portion, and an end portion, the first arm portion and the second arm portion each including a first end and a second end, the first end of the first arm portion being pivotally attached relative to the to the side portion, the second end of the first arm portion and the first end of the second arm portion being pivotally attached to one another, and the second end of the second arm portion supporting the end portion of the second surgical robotic arm, the end portions of the first surgical robotic arm and the second surgical robotic arm each supporting surgical equipment thereon;
• and
• the interface comprising:
• an extension portion attached relative to the surgical cart, the extension portion including an end portion and a receiving aperture formed in the end portion;
• a collar portion moveably attached relative to the longitudinal cross-member of the surgical table, the collar portion including a first end, an opposite second end, an interior cavity extending between the first end and the second end, an interior surface defining a portion of the interior cavity;
• a receiver portion provided on the collar portion, the receiver portion including a recess and a locking member moveable into and out of the recess, and the recess being configured to receive the end portion of the extension portion, and the locking member configured to be moved into and out of the receiving aperture;
• and
• an actuator portion actuatable to facilitate movement of the collar portion relative to the longitudinal cross member;
• wherein portions of the longitudinal cross member of the surgical table are received in the interior cavity to attach the collar portion to the surgical table;
• wherein, when the end portion of the extension portion is received in the recess, the locking member can be received in the receiving aperture to attach the extension portion and the collar portion to one another, and after attachment of the extension portion and the collar portion, the surgical cart is moveably interconnected to the surgical table via actuation of the actuator portion;
• and
• wherein the first surgical robotic arm and the second surgical robotic arm can be manipulated to position and reposition the surgical equipment thereon relative to the patient supported by the surgical table.
