Variable Jaw Closure Of A Robotic Surgical System

View page
US Patent:
20220346897, Nov 3, 2022
Filed:
Apr 30, 2021
Appl. No.:
17/245332
Inventors:
- Zug, CH
Charles J. Scheib - Loveland OH, US
Matthew T. Stone - Mason OH, US
Mark D. Overmyer - Cincinnati OH, US
Christopher A. Denzinger - Cincinnati OH, US
Andrew T. Beckman - Cincinnati OH, US
Neil T. Markwardt - Redwood City CA, US
International Classification:
A61B 34/37
B25J 9/10
B25J 5/00
A61B 34/00
Abstract:
A surgical instrument includes a drive housing, a spline, a carriage, an elongate shaft assembly, an end effector, and an activating mechanism. The at least one spline includes a drive gear rotatable with the spline. The elongate shaft assembly extends from the carriage. The activating mechanism includes a barrel cam extending along a rotational axis and having a first cam profile radially extending about the rotational axis. The barrel cam is operatively coupled to the drive gear such that rotation of the drive gear is configured to actuate the activating mechanism to move at least a portion of the end effector. The first cam profile defines a plurality of slopes relative to the rotational axis such that the first cam profile is configured to drive movement of the end effector or the elongate shaft assembly at different rates according to the plurality of slopes.

Slipper Clutch For Surgical Tool Bailout

US Patent:
20220249182, Aug 11, 2022
Filed:
Feb 11, 2021
Appl. No.:
17/173655
Inventors:
- Guaynabo PR, US
Benjamin L. BERTRAM - Crestview KY, US
Christopher DENZINGER - Cincinnati OH, US
Heather E. KNOX - Cincinnati OH, US
Mark D. OVERMYER - Cincinnati OH, US
Neil MARKWARDT - Redwood City CA, US
Assignee:
Ethicon LLC - Guaynabo PR
International Classification:
A61B 34/37
A61B 34/00
A61B 17/3211
A61B 17/28
A61B 10/04
A61B 18/14
A61B 17/3201
A61B 17/128
A61B 10/02
Abstract:
A robotic surgical tool includes a handle having a drive input and a spline, a bailout ring arranged at the handle, and a slipper clutch mechanism received within the bailout ring. The slipper clutch mechanism including a slip carrier rotationally fixed to the bailout ring and defining a vertical slot that slidably receives a pin, a first ring arranged within the slip carrier and defining a first interface, a second ring arranged within the slip carrier atop the first ring and defining a second interface, and a pinion gear operatively coupled to the spline and arranged to intermesh with radial gear teeth defined on the second ring. Manual rotation of the bailout ring rotates the slip carrier and the pin and thereby rotates the first and second ring in succession to rotate the spline and manually bail out a function of the robotic surgical tool.

B25J 9/10
Abstract:
A robotic surgical tool includes a drive housing having a first end and a second end, at least one spline extending between the first and second ends and including a drive gear that rotates with rotation of the spline, and a carriage movably mounted to the spline. An elongate shaft extends from the carriage and through the first end, an end effector is arranged at a distal end of the elongate shaft, and a wrist interposes the end effector and the distal end of the shaft. An activating mechanism is housed in the carriage and operatively coupled to the drive gear such that rotation of the drive gear correspondingly actuates the activating mechanism and thereby causes the wrist to articulate the end effector in at least one plane.
