Magnetic end effector and device for guiding and positioning the same

摘要

The extracorporeal guide device has a motor driven positioning device (102) that is activated for translational movement of a distal interface terminal (106) in a space coordinate system, with three degrees of freedom. An end effector (104) is attached to interface terminal of positioning device for rotational movement of a magnetic field generator such that two degrees of freedom of the end effector in effective effector housing (104a) is enabled.
