    Abstract: A system comprises a first cannula comprising a proximal end and a cannula opening at the proximal end. The system further comprises a teleoperated surgical instrument, and a manually operated surgical instrument configured to be inserted into the cannula opening. The system further comprises a teleoperated manipulator, a controller, and a first position sensor coupled to the teleoperated surgical instrument, the first position sensor configured to provide a first sensor input to the controller. The system further comprises a second position sensor coupled to the manually operated surgical instrument, the second position sensor configured to provide a second sensor input to the controller, the second sensor input comprising an insertion depth of the manually operated surgical instrument into the first cannula. The system further comprises a reference fixture coupled to the first and second position sensors and to the teleoperated manipulator, the reference fixture being movable with the teleoperated manipulator.

    Abstract: A surgical device comprises a tube including a proximal segment and a distal segment and a plurality of force transmission elements coupled to the tube. The force transmission elements are actuatable to alter the distal segment of the tube between a flexible state and a stiffened state. The device also comprises a plurality of routing members. Each routing member is coupled to a wall of the tube. The routing members are configured to receive and route the force transmission elements along a length of the tube while permitting the length of the tube to flex and compress. The device also comprises a decoupling structure that generates a reduced force transmitted to the proximal segment when an applied force is applied to the distal segment by the force transmission elements.

    Abstract translation: 手术装置包括管,其包括近端段和远端段以及耦合到管的多个力传递元件。 力传递元件可致动以在柔性状态和加强状态之间改变管的远端段。 该设备还包括多个路由组件。 每个布线构件联接到管的壁。 路由构件被构造成沿着管的长度接收并布置力传递元件,同时允许管的长度弯曲和压缩。 该装置还包括解耦结构,当通过力传递元件将施加的力施加到远侧段时,该解耦结构产生传递到近端段的力。
