Robotic surgical table with relatively high resonant frequency structure to reduce efficiency of energy transmission between attached robotic arms

A surgical table, comprising:

• a base;
• a support column extending upwardly from the base and having an upper end;
• a table top;
• a pivot assembly coupling the table top to the upper end of the support column, the pivot assembly including:
• a support flange attached to upper end of support column and having portions distributed about support column;
• a primary load support having a lower end coupled to the support flange and an upper end having a pivotable coupling to the table top;
• a first actuator having a lower end coupled to the support flange at a first portion of the flange disposed on a first side of the support column and an upper end having a pivotable coupling to the table top, the first actuator being variable in length to pivot the table top about the pivotable coupling of the primary load support about a first pivot axis;
• and
• a second actuator having a lower end coupled to the support flange at a second portion of the flange disposed on a second side of the support column opposite to the first side and an upper end having a pivotable coupling to the table top, the second actuator being variable in length to pivot the table top about the pivotable coupling of the primary load support about a second pivot axis different from the first pivot axis;
• and
• a first robotic arm and a second robotic arm coupled to the support flange of the pivot assembly.

A surgical table, comprising:

• a base;
• a support column extending upwardly from the base and having an upper end;
• a table top;
• a pivot assembly coupling the table top to the upper end of the support column for pivotal movement of the table top relative to the support column about at least one axis;
• a support strut having an upper end coupled to the table top and a lower end coupled to the base, the support strut having a first section and a second section movable relative to the first section along a longitudinal axis of the support strut from a retracted position in which the support strut has a first length and an extended position in which the support strut has a second length that is greater than the first length, the support strut including a locking mechanism configured to selectively lock the support strut in at least one of the retracted position or the extended position such that the first section is not movable relative to the second section along the vertical axis, the support strut providing increased resistance to movement of the table top relative to the base when the locking mechanism locks the support strut.
