    摘要: Embodiments relate to robotic arm assemblies. The robotic arm assembly includes an end-effector assembly. The end-effector assembly includes an instrument assembly. The instrument assembly includes an instrument and instrument driven portion. The elongated body includes an instrument central axis. The instrument driven portion includes a first central axis. The instrument driven portion is secured to a proximal end of the instrument in such a way that, when the instrument driven portion is driven to rotate, the instrument rotates relative to the first central axis. The end-effector assembly includes an instrument drive assembly. The instrument drive assembly includes an instrument drive portion. The instrument drive portion includes a second central axis. The instrument drive portion is configured to drive the instrument driven portion to rotate the distal end of the instrument relative to the first central axis. The second central axis intersects with and orthogonal to the first central axis.

    摘要: Embodiments relate to robotic arm assemblies. Robotic arm assembly includes an arm segment and end-effector assembly. Arm segment includes an elongated body which forms an arm segment central axis. End-effector assembly is securable to the arm segment. End-effector assembly includes an instrument assembly and first gear assembly. Instrument assembly includes an instrument and instrument gear. Instrument forms an instrument central axis. Instrument is for performing an action. Proximal end of instrument is secured to the instrument gear. First gear assembly includes a first primary gear and protrusion portion. First primary gear includes a second central axis formed through the first primary gear. Second central axis intersects with first central axis, instrument central axis, and arm segment central axis. Protrusion portion is secured to the first primary gear, and includes an opening. A portion of the proximal end of the instrument is provided in the opening and rotatable within the opening.

    摘要: Example embodiments relate to surgical systems and methods. System includes an end-effector assembly and arm assembly. End-effector assembly includes an instrument assembly and wrist assembly. Instrument assembly includes an instrument and instrument driven portion. Instrument driven portion includes an instrument connection portion and instrument driven gear. Instrument connection portion connects the instrument driven gear to the instrument. Wrist assembly includes a wrist driven gear and wrist body, which connects the wrist driven gear to the instrument assembly. Arm assembly includes a wrist connector portion and integrated motors. Arm assembly attaches to and detaches from the wrist assembly. When the arm assembly is attached to the wrist assembly, the instrument driven gear and wrist driven gear are drivable to rotate by the integrated motors. When the arm assembly is detached from the wrist assembly, the instrument driven gear and wrist driven gear are not drivable to rotate by the integrated motors.

    摘要: Example embodiments relate to surgical systems and methods. The system includes an arm assembly and end-effector assembly. The arm assembly includes a first drive portion and wrist drive portion. The end-effector assembly is securable to and removable from the arm assembly. The end-effector assembly includes an instrument assembly and wrist assembly. The instrument assembly includes a first instrument, first instrument driven portion, and first instrument insulative portion. The first instrument driven portion is configured to move the first instrument relative to a first axis when the first instrument driven portion is driven by the first drive portion. The wrist assembly includes a wrist driven portion. The wrist driven portion is configured to move the first instrument relative to a second axis when the wrist driven portion is driven by the wrist drive portion. The end-effector assembly is secured to and removable from the arm assembly via a wrist connector portion.
