A robotic surgery cart has a pair of rear wheel assemblies and a pair of front wheel assemblies. A brake assembly for the robotic surgery cart includes a gearbox interposed between and connected to the pair of rear wheel assemblies by rotatable shafts. Elongate actuators extend between and interconnect the rotatable shafts and brake mechanisms for the front wheel assemblies. A pedal lever is rotatably coupled to the gearbox and can rotate clockwise by pressing one portion of the pedal lever and can rotate counterclockwise by pressing another portion of the pedal lever. Rotation of the pedal lever causes the gearbox to rotate the rotatable shafts to substantially lock the pair of rear wheel assemblies, and substantially simultaneously causes a translation of the elongate actuators to actuate the brake mechanisms of the front wheel assemblies, such that the wheels of the front and rear wheel assemblies brake substantially simultaneously.

A spring brake actuator has a combined housing including a first housing, a second housing, and connection part connecting the first housing and the second housing. Gas inlet ports are disposed along the circumference of the combined housing in a gas inlet port section. A mechanical connection section is disposed in the same axial space as the gas inlet portion section. A bayonet connection is arranged in the mechanical connection section, with gas inlet ports disposed between the bayonet elements. Port connectors may extend through recesses or holes and be threaded into the gas inlet ports, and which may block the bayonet connection and block relative rotation between the first and second housings. The connection part may include a ring shaped protrusion form fit with a protruding of the second housing, with the bayonet elements disposed at the opposite end of the connection part engaged with the first housing.

A traveling apparatus includes a frame, a wheel body, a rotating shaft, and a brake assembly. The wheel body is rotatably arranged on the frame, and is configured to roll on a bearing surface. The rotating shaft is connected to the frame, and the brake assembly is rotatably arranged on the rotating shaft. On a rotation path of the brake assembly, the brake assembly has an idle position in which the brake assembly defines a gap with a working surface of the wheel body, and a brake position in which the brake assembly is configured to be in contact with the working surface of the wheel body. The working surface is a surface of the wheel body configured to be in contact with the bearing surface.
