摘要:
A surgical module is supported by manipulators that are removably attached to the surgical module. The surgical module may enable operation of surgical tools by providing an integration between actuating mechanisms of the manipulators and actuating mechanisms of the surgical tools. Alternatively or additionally, the surgical module may enable operation of the surgical tools by providing physical access for deploying surgical tools that are operatively connected to the manipulators.

摘要:
A surgical system comprises a manipulator arm and a surgical instrument. The surgical instrument includes: a transmission mechanism including a plurality of interface members; and an elongate body extending from the transmission mechanism. The surgical system further includes an instrument mounting structure mounted to the manipulator arm. The transmission mechanism of the surgical instrument is removably couplable to the instrument mounting structure. The instrument mounting structure includes a plurality of actuator members and a passage defined within the instrument mounting structure. When the surgical instrument is coupled to the instrument mounting structure: the plurality of interface members mate with the plurality of actuator members; and the elongate body of the surgical instrument extends between at least some of the plurality of actuator members and through the passage.

A surgical system comprises a manipulator arm, configured to secure to a base, and an actuator assembly. The actuator assembly includes an instrument mounting bracket and a plurality of actuator disks supported on a first end of the instrument mounting bracket. The surgical system also includes a surgical instrument including a plurality of interface disks supported on a face of the surgical instrument. The plurality of interface disks is configured to mate with the plurality of actuator disks. The instrument also includes an attachment mechanism configured to removably attach the surgical instrument to the actuator assembly and an instrument body tube extending from the face of the surgical instrument. The instrument body tube is capable of passing by or passing through the instrument mounting bracket when the surgical instrument is attached to the instrument mounting bracket.
摘要:
A telesurgical system operates in a first operating mode and in a second operating mode. In the first operating mode, a moveable component is driven within a first range of an operating parameter. In the second operating mode, the moveable component is driven with a second range of the operating parameter, less than the first range. Usable instrument life is increased by decreasing mechanical degradation of the moveable component as a result of operating in the second range. A surgeon may select either operating mode.

摘要:
In a surgical instrument, a reciprocating element controls jaw opening and closing as it moves over a first range of motion and cuts tissue clamped between the jaws as it moves over a second range of motion. A first control input controls the reciprocating element's motion over the first range of motion, and a second control input controls the reciprocating element's motion over the second range of motion. As a result, over control by the first control input will not result in inadvertent tissue cutting.
摘要:
Tool force information is provided to a user of a telesurgical system using an alternative modality other than force reflection on a master manipulator, such as providing the information on user-visible, user-audible, or haptic “buzz” or “viscosity” indicators, so as to allow expanded processing, including amplification, of the information, while not significantly affecting the stability of the telesurgical system or any closed-loop control systems in the telesurgical system.
摘要:
A control system includes a processor communicatively coupled with first and second user-actuated input mechanisms. The processor is configured to, in response to a first input at the first user-actuated input mechanism, command a jaw mechanism of an end effector to move from an open position to an intermediate closed position within the range of motion of the jaw mechanism, and command a translating mechanism of the end effector to move from a proximal position to an intermediate position relative to the jaw mechanism. In response to a second input at the first user-actuated input mechanism, the processor is configured to command the jaw mechanism to move to the closed position, and command the translating element of the end effector to move from the intermediate position to the distal position.
