Abstract: An instrument sterile adapter couples a surgical instrument and an instrument carriage. The instrument sterile adapter includes an instrument plate that provides a first surface to receive the surgical instrument and a latch plate joined to the instrument plate. The latch plate includes a second surface to receive the instrument carriage and latch structures. Each latch structure has a carriage latch arm that extends away from the second surface of the latch plate and an instrument latch arm joined to the carriage latch arm. The instrument latch arm extends through the instrument plate and away from the first surface of the instrument plate. A connecting member flexibly connects the carriage latch arm and the instrument latch arm to a remainder of the latch plate. The connecting member may be perpendicular to the latch arms. The latch arms may engage fixed locking surfaces in the instrument carriage and the surgical instrument.

Abstract: An apparatus includes a housing, a cable guide, a first cable, and a second cable. The housing is coupled to a shaft of a medical instrument. The cable guide is coupled to the housing, and defines a shaft opening into a passageway defined by the shaft. A first guide groove and a second guide groove are defined by the cable guide, with each of the first guide groove and the second guide groove being splayed outward from the shaft opening. The first cable is routed within the first guide groove and through the shaft opening, and is configured to slide within the first guide groove. The second cable is routed within the second guide groove and through the shaft opening, and is configured to slide within the second guide groove.

Abstract: A surgical instrument includes a chassis, an outer tube having a proximal end operably coupled to the chassis, and an inner tube extending within the outer tube. The inner tube has a proximal end operably coupled to the chassis to allow slidable movement of the inner tube relative to the outer tube in response to a force imparted to a distal end of the inner tube, and such that frictional force imparted to an outer surface of the outer tube is not imparted to the inner member.

Abstract: An instrument includes a chassis having a side adapted to be removably mated with a surgical robotic manipulator arm, a transport shaft coupled to the chassis, a valve including a valve channel and a movable valve member, a first robotic actuation piece, and a manual button. An auxiliary channel is defined in the chassis. A cavity extends through the transport shaft and intersects the auxiliary channel, which together define an instrument axis. The valve channel intersects the auxiliary channel. The movable valve member translates across the valve channel along a valve member axis. The robotic actuation piece is coupled to translate the movable valve member along the valve member axis and rotates about an actuation piece axis perpendicular to the valve member axis. The manual button is coupled to translate the movable valve member along the valve member axis and translates parallel to the valve member axis.

Abstract: A medical device includes a shaft, a beam, a hard stop structure, and a link. A proximal end portion of the beam is coupled to the distal end portion of the shaft and a distal end portion of the beam is coupled to the link. A strain sensor is on the beam. A hard stop structure includes a proximal end portion, a distal end portion, and first opposing stop surfaces. The proximal end portion of the hard stop structure is coupled to a distal end portion of the shaft, and the distal end portion of the hard stop structure is coupled to the link. The first opposing stop surfaces are positioned to limit a lateral range of motion of the distal end of the beam with reference to the proximal end of the beam in a first direction by the first stop surfaces contacting one another.
