A modular, multi-articulated patient support system includes independently adjustable columns connected by an adjustable base and supporting a patient support structure. Each column includes rotation, angulation and separation adjustment structure. The patient support may be raised, lowered and rotated about a longitudinal axis in either horizontal or tilted orientation. The patient support includes a body support rotatably coupled with right and left leg supports disengageable at the outboard ends, that can be tilted, rotated and locked in place. An intermediate brace engages the base when the outboard ends of the leg supports are disengaged. The patient support structure may include two pairs of patient supports, each attached at the outboard end of a column and having a free inboard end. A coordinated drive system raises, lowers, tilts and rotates the patient supports, which may be positioned in overlapping relation. The pairs of patient supports may be rotated in unison to achieve 180° repositioning of a patient.

A surgical table comprising: A) a patient support comprising a first segment and a second segment, the first segment comprising a first end and a second end opposite the first end, the second segment comprising a third end and a fourth end opposite the third end, the first and fourth ends forming
1. A surgical table comprising: A) a patient support comprising a first segment and a second segment, the first segment comprising a first end and a second end opposite the first end, the second segment comprising a third end and a fourth end opposite the third end, the first and fourth ends forming opposite ends of the patient support, the second and third ends coupled to together to define a joint about which the first segment and second segment articulate relative to each other; and B) a first support structure comprising a first vertical column and supporting a first displacement apparatus operably coupling the first vertical column to the first end of the first segment of the patient support, wherein the first vertical column is configured to vertically extend and retract, the first displacement apparatus comprising: a) a first rotation assembly operably coupled between the first vertical column and the first end of the first segment of the patient support, the first rotation assembly configured to rotate the patient support relative to first vertical column and about an axis parallel to a longitudinal axis of the patient support; and b) a first angulation assembly operably coupled between the first vertical column and the first end of the first segment of the patient support, the first angulation assembly configured to facilitate the first segment articulating relative to the second segment about the joint, the first angulation assembly comprising: i) a first member operably coupled to the first vertical column via a first pivot; and ii) a second member operably coupled to the first segment of the patient support near the first end of the first segment, the second member configured to displace along a longitudinal length of the first member as the first segment and second segment articulate relative to each other about the joint, C) a second support structure comprising a second vertical column and supporting a second displacement apparatus operably coupling the second vertical column to the fourth end of the second segment of the patient support, wherein the second vertical column is configured to vertically extend and retract, the second displacement apparatus comprising: a) a second rotation assembly operably coupled between the second vertical column and the fourth end of the second segment of the patient support, the rotation assembly configured to rotate the patient support relative to second vertical column and about the axis parallel to the longitudinal axis of the patient support; and b) a second angulation assembly operably coupled between the second vertical column and the fourth end of the second segment of the patient support, the second angulation assembly configured to facilitate the second segment articulating relative to the first segment about the joint, the second angulation assembly comprising a second pivot between the second vertical column and the fourth end of the second segment of the patient support. 2. The surgical table of claim 1, wherein the first rotation assembly is located between the first angulation assembly and the first vertical column. 3. The surgical table of claim 1, wherein the first rotation assembly is located between the first pivot and the first vertical column. 4. The surgical table of claim 3, wherein the first pivot includes a pivot axis that is transverse to the longitudinal axis of the patient support. 5. The surgical table of claim 1, further comprising a base extending between the first support structure and the second support structure, wherein the base is adjustable along its length. 6. The surgical table of claim 5, wherein the base is adjustable along its length via a telescopic configuration of at least a portion of the base. 7. The surgical table of claim 1, wherein the at least one of the first vertical column or second vertical column comprises a telescopic assembly that facilitates the vertical extension and retractions of the at least one of the first vertical column or second vertical column. 8. The surgical table of claim 1, wherein the second rotation assembly is located between the second angulation assembly and the second vertical column. 9. The surgical table of claim 8, wherein the second rotation assembly is located between the second pivot and the second vertical column. 10. The surgical table of claim 9, wherein the second pivot includes a pivot axis that is transverse to the longitudinal axis of the patient support. 11. The surgical table of claim 1, the first rotation assembly comprises a first pivot shaft and the second rotation assembly comprises a second pivot shaft, wherein the first pivot shaft and the second pivot shaft each comprises a pivot axis that is parallel to a longitudinal axis of the patient support. 12. The surgical table of claim 1, wherein the first pivot is located below the first pivot shaft, and the second pivot is located below the second pivot shaft. 13. The surgical table of claim 12, wherein the first pivot is suspended off the first pivot shaft, and the second pivot is suspended off the second pivot shaft. 14. The surgical table of claim 1, further comprising an elevator assembly operably coupled to the first vertical column, the first angulation assembly being supported off of the elevator assembly and configured to vertically displace along the elevator assembly relative to the first vertical column. 15. The surgical table of claim 14, wherein the elevator assembly comprises a vertical rail along which the first angulation assembly moves when vertically displacing along the elevator relative to the first vertical column. 16. The surgical table of claim 14, wherein the elevator assembly facilitates the first angulation assembly spacing apart from the first rotation assembly. 17. The surgical table of claim 1, wherein the first member comprises a lead screw and rotation of the lead screw causes the second member to displace along the longitudinal length of the first member. 18. The surgical table of claim 1, wherein the first displacement apparatus further comprises a first housing operably coupled to the first vertical column, the first pivot operably coupled to the first housing. 19. The surgical table of claim 18, wherein the rotation assembly operably couples the first housing and the first vertical column. 20. The surgical table of claim 18, wherein the first pivot comprises a first motor housing mount pivotally supported in the first housing.
