Objective To analyze the influence of the change of the patient's gravity on the dynamic characteristics of the medical robotic
couch. Methods Differences among different gravity of tumor patients can cause the change of the dynamic characteristics of the robotic
couch. Thus, we utilized ADMAS software to simulate the influence of tumor patient’s gravity on the dynamic characteristics of the
robotic couch, with the establishment of 3d model of robotic couch using SolidWorks and the obtention of the driving function of
each joint via kinematic simulation using MATLAB robotic toolbox. Finally, we calculated the displacement characteristic curves of
each joint and the displacement deviation of the end center of mass. Results We verified the existence of displacement deviation in
different gravity position of tumor patients on medical robotic couch, and obtained the displacement deviation and torque curve of
end centroid of the medical robotic couch. Under Marker 9-point loading, the displacement deviations of x, y and z directions were
the largest, with 0.82, 2.078 and 1.070 mm, respectively. Conclusion The results can provide the theoretical bases for the following
motion control and position compensation of medical robotic couch.
