图1示出了包括可操作地联接到外壳1012的可互换轴组件1200的外科器械1010。图2示出了与外壳1012或柄部1014分离的可互换轴组件1200。如在图3中可见,柄部1014可包括一对可互连柄部外壳段1016和1018,这对柄部外壳段可借助螺钉、按扣特征部、粘合剂等互连。在例示的布置中,柄部外壳段1016和1018配合形成手枪式握把部1019。图1和图3示出了可再利用或不可再利用的马达驱动外科切割和紧固器械1010。在例示的实施方案中,器械1010包括先前的外壳1012,该外壳包括被构造成能够被临床医生抓持、操纵和致动的柄部1014。外壳1012被构造用于可操作地附接到可互换轴组件1200,该可互换轴组件具有可操作地联接到其的外科端部执行器1300,该外科端部执行器被构造成能够执行一种或多种外科任务或外科手术。继续参阅本具体实施方式,将会理解,本文所公开的各种形式的可互换轴组件也可有效地与机器人控制的外科系统结合使用。因此,术语“外壳”也可涵盖机器人系统的容纳或以其他方式可操作地支撑至少一个驱动系统的外壳或类似部分,所述至少一个驱动系统被构造成能够生成并施加可用于致动本文所公开的可互换轴组件及其相应的等同物的至少一种控制动作。此外,各种部件可被“容纳”或包含在外壳中,或者各种部件可与外壳“相关联”。在此类情况下,部件可不容纳在外壳内或由外壳直接支撑。术语“框架”可指手持式外科器械的一部分。术语“框架”还可表示机器人控制的外科器械的一部分和/或机器人系统的可用于可操作地控制外科器械的一部分。例如,本文所公开的可互换轴组件可与名称为“SURGICAL STAPLING INSTRUMENTS WITH ROTATABLE STAPLE DEPLOYMENTARRANGEMENTS”的美国专利9,072,535中公开的各种机器人系统、器械、部件和方法一起使用,该专利全文以引用方式并入本文。
图1所示的先前外壳1012结合可互换轴组件1200示出(图2、图4和图5),该可互换轴组件包括端部执行器1300,该端部执行器包括被构造成能够在其中可操作地支撑外科钉仓4000的外科切割和紧固装置。外壳1012可被构造用于与可互换轴组件结合使用,该可互换轴组件包括端部执行器,该端部执行器适于支撑不同尺寸和类型的钉仓,具有不同的轴长度、尺寸和类型等。此外,外壳1012还可有效地用于多种其他可互换轴组件,其包括被构造成能够将其他动作和形式的能量(诸如例如射频(RF)能量、超声能量和/或运动)施加到适合与各种外科应用和手术结合使用的端部执行器布置的那些组件。此外,端部执行器、轴组件、柄部、外科器械和/或外科器械系统可利用任意合适的可被临床医生抓握和操纵的紧固件。如将在下文进一步详细地讨论,柄部1014可操作地支撑其中的多个驱动系统,这些驱动系统被构造成能够生成各种控制动作并将这些控制动作施加到可操作地附接到其上的可互换轴组件的对应部分。
现在参见图3,柄部1014还可包括可操作地支撑多个驱动系统的框架1020。例如,框架1020可操作地支撑通常被标记为1030的“第一”或闭合驱动系统,该“第一”或闭合驱动系统可用于将闭合和打开动作施加到操作地附接或联接到其的可互换轴组件1200。在至少一种形式中,闭合驱动系统1030可包括被框架1020枢转地支撑的闭合触发器1032形式的致动器。更具体地,如图3所示,闭合触发器1032经由销1033枢转地联接到柄部1014。这种构造使闭合触发器1032能够被临床医生操纵,使得当临床医生抓握柄部1014的手枪式握把部1019时,闭合触发器1032可被其轻易地从起始或“未致动”位置枢转到“致动”位置,并且更具体地,枢转到完全压缩或完全致动位置。闭合触发器1032可由弹簧或其他偏压布置(未示出)偏压到未致动位置。在各种形式中,闭合驱动系统1030还包括枢转地联接到闭合触发器1032的闭合连杆组件1034。如在图3中可见,闭合连杆组件1034可包括通过销1035枢转地联接到闭合触发器1032的第一闭合连接件1036和第二闭合连接件1038。第二闭合连接件1038在本文中也可称为“附接构件”,并且包括横向附接销1037。
仍参见图3,可观察到,第一闭合连接件1036可在其上具有锁定壁或锁定端部1039,该锁定壁或锁定端部被构造成能够与枢转地联接到框架1020的闭合释放组件1060配合。在至少一种形式中,闭合释放组件1060可包括具有在其上形成的朝远侧突起的锁定棘爪1064的释放按钮组件1062。释放按钮组件1062可被释放弹簧(未示出)沿逆时针方向枢转。临床医生将闭合触发器1032从其未致动位置朝向柄部1014的手枪式握把部1019按压时,第一闭合连接件1036向上枢转至某个点,其中锁定棘爪1064落入该点中以与第一闭合连接件1036上的锁定壁1039保持接合,从而阻止闭合触发器1032返回未致动位置。因此,闭合释放组件1060用来将闭合触发器1032锁定在完全致动位置。当临床医生期望将闭合触发器1032解锁以允许其被偏压到未致动位置时,临床医生只需枢转闭合释放按钮组件1062,使得锁定棘爪1064运动成与第一闭合连接件1036上的锁定壁1039脱离接合。当锁定棘爪1064已运动成与第一闭合连接件1036脱离接合时,闭合触发器1032可枢转回到未致动位置。也可采用其他闭合触发器锁定布置和释放布置。
臂1061可从闭合释放按钮1062延伸。磁性元件1063(诸如永磁体)例如可安装到臂1061。当闭合释放按钮1062从其第一位置旋转到其第二位置时,磁性元件1063可朝向电路板1100运动。电路板1100可包括至少一个传感器,该至少一个传感器被构造成能够检测磁性元件1063的运动。在至少一个实施方案中,例如,“霍尔效应”传感器(未示出)可安装到电路板1100的底部表面。霍尔效应传感器可被构造成能够检测由磁性元件1063的运动引起、在霍尔效应传感器周围出现的磁场变化。霍尔效应传感器可与例如微控制器进行信号通信,该微控制器可确定闭合释放按钮1062是否处于其与闭合触发器1032的未致动位置和端部执行器的打开构型相关联的第一位置、其与闭合触发器1032的致动位置和端部执行器的闭合构型相关联的第二位置和/或第一位置与第二位置之间的任何位置。
在至少一种形式中,柄部1014和框架1020可以可操作地支撑在本文中被称为击发驱动系统1080的另一个驱动系统,该驱动系统被构造成能够向附接到其的可互换轴组件的对应部分施加击发运动。击发驱动系统1080也可在本文中被称为“第二驱动系统”。击发驱动系统1080可采用电动马达1082,该电动马达位于柄部1014的手枪式握把部1019中。在各种形式中,马达1082例如可为具有约25,000RPM的最大旋转的DC有刷驱动马达。在其他布置中,马达可包括无刷马达、无绳马达、同步马达、步进马达、或任何其他合适的电动马达。马达1082可由功率源1090供电,在一种形式中,该功率源可包括可移除电源组1092。如在图3中可见,例如,电源组1092可包括近侧外壳部分1094,该近侧外壳部分被构造用于附接到远侧外壳部分1096。近侧外壳部分1094和远侧外壳部分1096被构造成能够在其中可操作地支撑多个电池1098。电池1098可各自包括例如锂离子(“LI”)或其他合适的电池。远侧外壳部分1096被构造用于以可移除方式可操作地附接到同样可操作地联接到马达1082的电路板1100。可使用可串联连接的多个电池1098作为外科器械1010的功率源。此外,功率源1090可为可更换的和/或可充电的。
如上文相对于其他各种形式所概述,电动马达1082可包括与齿轮减速器组件1084可操作地交接的可旋转轴(未示出),该齿轮减速器组件与一组或一齿条的驱动齿1122啮合接合地安装在可纵向运动的驱动构件1120上。在使用中,功率源1090所提供的电压极性可沿顺时针方向操作电动马达1082,其中由电池施加给电动马达的电压极性可被反转,以便沿逆时针方向操作电动马达1082。当电动马达1082在一个方向上旋转时,驱动构件1120将在远侧方向“DD”上轴向地驱动。当马达82在相反的旋转方向上被驱动时,驱动构件1120将在近侧方向“PD”上轴向地驱动。柄部1014可包括开关,该开关被构造成能够使由功率源1090施加到电动马达1082的极性反转。与本文所述的其他形式一样,柄部1014还可包括传感器,该传感器被构造成能够检测驱动构件1120的位置和/或驱动构件1120正在运动的方向。
马达1082的致动可通过被枢转地支撑在柄部1014上的击发触发器1130来控制。击发触发器1130可在未致动位置和致动位置之间枢转。击发触发器1130可由弹簧1132或其他偏压构造偏压到未致动位置,使得当临床医生释放击发触发器1130时,击发触发器可由弹簧1132或偏压构造枢转或以其他方式返回到未致动位置。在至少一种形式中,击发触发器1130可定位在闭合触发器1032的“外侧”,如上文所讨论。在至少一种形式中,击发触发器安全按钮1134可由销1035枢转地安装到闭合触发器1032。安全按钮1134可定位在击发触发器1130和闭合触发器1032之间,并具有从其突起的枢转臂1136。当闭合触发器1032处于未致动位置时,安全按钮1134被容纳在柄部1014中,此时临床医生可能无法轻易触及该按钮,也无法将该按钮在防止对击发触发器1130致动的安全位置与击发触发器1130可被击发的击发位置之间运动。临床医生按压闭合触发器1032时,安全按钮1134和击发触发器1130向下枢转,随后可被临床医生操纵。
如上所述,在至少一种形式中,能够纵向运动的驱动构件1120具有在其上形成的一齿条的齿1122,以用于与齿轮减速器组件1084的相应驱动齿轮1086啮合接合。至少一种形式还包括可手动致动的被构造成能够使得临床医生能够在马达1082变得失效情况下手动地回缩能够纵向运动的驱动构件1120的“应急”组件1140。应急组件1140可包括杠杆或应急柄部组件1142,该杠杆或应急柄部组件被构造成能够被手动地枢转为与同样设置在驱动构件1120中的齿1124棘轮接合。因此,临床医生可使用应急柄部组件1142手动地缩回驱动构件1120,以使驱动构件1120沿近侧方向“PD”进行棘轮运动。名称为“POWERED SURGICALCUTTING AND STAPLING APPARATUS WITH MANUALLY RETRACTABLE FIRING SYSTEM”的美国专利8,608,045公开了也可与本文所公开的各种器械一起使用的应急布置和其他部件、布置和系统。美国专利8,608,045据此全文以引用方式并入本文。
现在转到图2和图5,可互换轴组件1200包括外科端部执行器1300,该外科端部执行器包括被构造成能够在其中可操作地支撑钉仓4000的细长通道1310。端部执行器1300还可包括相对于细长通道1310被枢转地支撑的砧座2000。可互换轴组件1200还可包括关节运动接头3020和关节运动锁2140,该关节运动锁可被构造成能够可释放地将端部执行器1300相对于轴轴线SA保持在期望的位置。端部执行器1300、关节运动接头3020和关节运动锁的至少一种形式的各种特征的示例可在2013年3月14日提交的名称为“ARTICULATABLESURGICAL INSTRUMENT COMPRISING AN ARTICULATION LOCK”的美国专利申请序列号13/803,086(现为美国专利申请公布2014/0263541)中找到。2013年3月14日提交的名称为“ARTICULATABLE SURGICAL INSTRUMENT COMPRISING AN ARTICULATION LOCK”的美国专利申请序列号13/803,086(现为美国专利申请公布2014/0263541)的完整公开内容据此以引用方式并入本文。如在图4中可见,可互换轴组件1200还可包括由喷嘴部分1202和1203组成的近侧外壳或喷嘴1201。
可互换轴组件1200还可包括闭合系统或闭合构件组件3000,该闭合系统或闭合构件组件可用于闭合和/或打开端部执行器1300的砧座2000。轴组件1200可包括脊1210,该脊被构造成能够:第一,在其中可滑动地支撑击发构件;第二,可滑动地支撑围绕脊1210延伸的闭合构件组件3000。如在图5中可见,脊1210的远侧端部1212终止于上凸耳安装特征部1270和下凸耳安装特征部1280。上凸耳安装特征部1270在其中形成有凸耳狭槽1272,该凸耳狭槽适于将上安装连接件1274安装支撑在其中。类似地,下凸耳安装特征部1280在其中形成有凸耳狭槽1282,该凸耳狭槽适于在其中安装地支撑下安装连接件1284。上安装连接件1274在其中包括枢轴承窝1276,该枢轴承窝适于将枢轴销1292可旋转地接收在其中,该枢轴销形成在附接到细长通道1310的近侧端部部分1312的通道顶盖或砧座保持器1290上。下安装连接件1284包括下枢轴销1286,该下枢轴销适于被接收在形成于细长通道1310的近侧端部部分1312中的枢轴孔1314内。参见图5。下枢轴销1286与枢轴承窝1276竖直对准以限定关节运动轴线AA,外科端部执行器1300可围绕该关节运动轴线AA相对于轴轴线SA进行关节运动。参见图2。
在例示的示例中,外科端部执行器1300能够由关节运动系统2100围绕关节运动轴线AA选择性地进行关节运动。在一种形式中,关节运动系统2100包括近侧关节运动驱动器2102,该近侧关节运动驱动器枢转地联接到关节运动连接件2120。如图5中可以最具体地看出,在近侧关节运动驱动器2102的远侧端部2110上形成偏移附接凸耳2114。枢轴孔2116形成在偏移附接凸耳2114中,并且被构造成能够将形成在关节运动连接件2120的近侧端部2122上的近侧连接件销2124枢转地接收在其中。关节运动连接件2120的远侧端部2126包括枢轴孔2128,该枢轴孔被构造成能够将形成在细长通道1310的近侧端部部分1312上的通道销1317枢转地接收在其中。因此,近侧关节运动驱动器2102的轴向运动将由此向细长通道1310施加关节运动动作,从而使外科端部执行器1300围绕关节运动轴线AA相对于脊1210进行关节运动。有关于关节运动系统2100的构造和操作的更多细节可见于以引用方式并入本文的各种参考文献中,包括2017年6月28日提交的名称为“SURGICAL INSTRUMENT WITHAXIALLY MOVABLE CLOSURE MEMBER”的美国专利申请序列号15/635,631中,现为美国专利申请公布2019/0000464,其全部公开内容据此以引用方式并入本文。在各种情况下,当近侧关节运动驱动器2102没有在近侧或远侧方向上运动时,近侧关节运动驱动器2102可被关节运动锁2140保持就位。关于关节运动锁2140的示例的附加细节可见于美国专利申请序列号15/635,631,现为美国专利申请公布2019/0000464,以及以引用方式并入本文的其他参考文献中。
在各种情况下,脊1210可包括可旋转地支撑在底座1240中的近侧端部1211。在一种布置中,例如,脊1210的近侧端部1211具有在其上形成的螺纹1214,以便通过螺纹附接到被构造成能够被支撑在底座1240内的脊轴承1216。参见图4。这种布置有利于脊1210到底座1240的可旋转附接,使得脊1210可以选择性地相对于底座1240围绕轴轴线SA旋转。
主要参见图4,可互换轴组件1200包括闭合梭动件1250,该闭合梭动件被可滑动地支撑在底座1240内,使得闭合梭动件相对于底座轴向运动。闭合梭动件1250包括被构造用于附接到附接销1037的一对朝近侧突起的钩1252(图3),该附接销附接到第二闭合连接件1038,如将在下文进一步详细地讨论。在至少一个示例中,闭合构件组件3000包括具有近侧端部3012的近侧闭合构件段3010,该近侧端部联接到闭合梭动件1250以相对于其旋转。例如,将U形连接器1263插入近侧闭合构件段3010的近侧端部3012中的环形狭槽3014中,并使其保留在闭合梭动件1250中的竖直狭槽1253内。此类布置用于将近侧闭合构件段3010附接到闭合梭动件1250,以与闭合梭动件一起轴向地行进,同时使得近侧闭合构件段3010能够相对于闭合梭动件1250围绕轴轴线SA旋转。闭合弹簧1268轴颈连接在近侧闭合构件段3010上,用来沿近侧方向“PD”偏压近侧闭合构件段3010,当轴组件可操作地联接到柄部1014时,该闭合弹簧可用来将闭合触发器1032枢转到未致动位置。
在至少一种形式中,可互换轴组件1200还可包括关节运动接头3020。然而,其他可互换轴组件可能无法进行关节运动。如在图5中可见,例如,远侧闭合构件或远侧闭合管段3030联接到近侧闭合构件段3010的远侧端部。关节运动接头3020包括双枢轴闭合套管组件3022。根据各种形式,双枢轴闭合套管组件3022包括具有朝远侧突出的上柄脚3052和下柄脚3054的端部执行器闭合管3050。上部双枢轴连接件3056包括向上突出的远侧枢轴销和近侧枢轴销,这些枢轴销分别接合远侧闭合管段3030上的朝近侧突出的上柄脚3052中的上部远侧销孔以及朝远侧突出的上柄脚3032中的上部近侧销孔。下部双枢轴连接件3058包括向上突出的远侧枢轴销和近侧枢轴销,这些枢轴销分别接合朝近侧突出的下柄脚3054中的下部远侧销孔以及朝远侧突出的下柄脚3034中的下部近侧销孔。参见图4和图5。如将在下文进一步详细讨论的,闭合构件组件3000朝远侧(方向“DD”)平移,以例如响应于闭合触发器1032的致动而使砧座2000闭合。通过朝近侧平移闭合构件组件3000来打开砧座2000,这使端部执行器闭合套管与砧座2000相互作用并使其枢转至打开位置。
同样如上所述,可互换轴组件1200还包括击发构件1900,该击发构件被支撑以便在脊1210内轴向行进。击发构件1900包括被构造用于附接到远侧切割部分或刀杆1910的中间击发轴部分1222。中间击发轴部分1222可在其远侧端部中包括纵向狭槽1223,该纵向狭槽可被构造成能够接收远侧刀杆1910的近侧端部上的接片1912。纵向狭槽1223和近侧端部接片1912的尺寸和构造可被设置成允许该纵向狭槽和该近侧端部接片之间的相对运动并且可包括滑动接头1914。滑动接头1914可以允许击发构件1900的中间击发轴部分1222运动,以在不使刀杆1910运动或至少基本上不使刀杆1910运动的情况下,使端部执行器1300进行关节运动。一旦端部执行器1300已合适地取向,中间击发轴部分1222便可朝远侧行进,直到纵向狭槽1223的近侧侧壁与接片1912发生接触,以便行进刀杆1910并击发定位在通道1310内的钉仓4000。刀杆1910包括刀部分1920,该刀部分包括刀片或组织切割刃1922并且包括上部砧座接合接片1924和下部通道接合接片1926。各种击发构件构型和操作公开于以引用方式并入本文的各种其他参考文献中。
如在图4中可见,轴组件1200还包括可旋转地接收在近侧闭合构件段3010上的切换筒1500。切换筒1500包括中空轴段1502,该中空轴段具有在其上形成的轴凸台,用于将向外突起的致动销接收在其中。在各种情况下,致动销延伸穿过设置在锁套管中的纵向狭槽,以便在锁套管与关节运动驱动器接合的情况下,利于锁套管进行轴向运动。旋转扭转弹簧1420被构造成能够接合切换筒1500上的凸台以及喷嘴外壳1203的一部分,以将偏压力施加到切换筒1500。切换筒1500还可包括限定于其中的至少部分周边开口1506,该开口可被构造成能够接收从喷嘴部分1202、1203延伸的周边安装架,并且允许切换筒1500和喷嘴1201之间的相对旋转而不是相对平移。安装架还延伸穿过待安置在脊1210中的凹槽1219中的近侧闭合构件段3010中的开口3011。切换筒1500围绕轴轴线SA的旋转最终将引起致动销的旋转,并引起锁套管在其接合位置与脱离位置之间旋转。在一种布置中,切换筒1500的旋转可与闭合管或闭合构件的轴向行进相关联。因此,实质上,闭合系统的致动可以各种方式可操作地使关节运动驱动系统与击发驱动系统接合和脱离接合,这些方式在名称为“ARTICULATABLE SURGICAL INSTRUMENT COMPRISING AN ARTICULATION LOCK”的美国专利申请序列号13/803,086(现为美国专利申请公布No.2014/0263541)和名称为“SURGICALINSTRUMENT COMPRISING A SENSOR SYSTEM”的美国专利No.9,913,642中更详细地描述,这些专利各自的全部公开内容据此以引用方式并入本文。例如,当闭合管处于其对应于“钳口打开”位置的最近侧位置时,闭合构件段3010将已定位切换筒1500,以便将关节运动系统与击发驱动系统连接。当闭合管已运动到其对应于“钳口闭合”位置的远侧位置时,闭合管已将切换筒1500旋转到其中关节运动系统与击发驱动系统脱离连接的位置。
也如图4所示,轴组件1200可包括滑环组件1600,例如,该滑环组件可被构造成能够将电力传导至端部执行器1300和/或从该端部执行器传导电力,并且/或者将信号传送至端部执行器1300和/或从该端部执行器接收信号。滑环组件1600可包括近侧连接器法兰1604和远侧连接器法兰,该近侧连接器法兰安装到从底座1240延伸的底座法兰1242上,该远侧连接器法兰定位在限定于轴外壳中的狭槽内。近侧连接器法兰1604可包括第一面,并且远侧连接器法兰可包括第二面,其中第二面与第一面相邻定位,并能够相对于第一面运动。远侧连接器法兰可围绕轴轴线SA相对于近侧连接器法兰1604旋转。近侧连接器法兰1604可包括限定于其第一面中的多个同心或至少基本上同心的导体。连接器可安装在连接器法兰的近侧侧面上,并且可具有多个触点,其中每个触点对应于导体中的一个并且与其电接触。这种布置在保持近侧连接器法兰1604与远侧连接器法兰之间电接触的同时,允许这两个法兰之间进行相对旋转。例如,近侧连接器法兰1604可包括电连接器1606,该电连接器可使导体与安装到轴底座1240的轴电路板1610进行信号通信。在至少一种情况下,包括多个导体的线束可在电连接器1606与轴电路板1610之间延伸。电连接器1606可朝近侧延伸穿过限定于底座法兰1242中的连接器开口1243。参见图4。例如,关于滑环组件1600的进一步细节可见于名称为“ARTICULATABLE SURGICAL INSTRUMENT COMPRISING ANARTICULATION LOCK”的美国专利申请序列号13/803,086(现为美国专利申请公布2014/0263541)、提交于2013年3月13日的名称为“STAPLE CARTRIDGE TISSUE THICKNESS SENSORSYSTEM”的美国专利申请序列号13/800,067(现为美国专利申请公布2014/0263552,以及名称为“STAPLE CARTRIDGE TISSUE THICKNESS SENSOR SYSTEM”的美国专利9,345,481。美国专利申请序列号13/803,086(现为美国专利申请公布2014/0263541)、美国专利申请序列号13/800,067(现为美国专利申请公布2014/0263552)和美国专利9,345,481据此各自全文以引用方式并入本文。
如上文所讨论,轴组件1200可包括可固定地安装到柄部1014的近侧部分,以及能够围绕纵向轴线旋转的远侧部分。可旋转远侧轴部分可如上所述围绕滑环组件1600相对于近侧部分旋转。滑环组件1600的远侧连接器法兰可定位在可旋转远侧轴部分内。而且,除上述之外,切换筒1500也可定位在可旋转远侧轴部分内。当可旋转远侧轴部分旋转时,远侧连接器法兰和切换筒1500可彼此同步地旋转。另外,切换筒1500可相对于远侧连接器法兰在第一位置和第二位置之间旋转。当切换筒1500处于其第一位置时,关节运动驱动系统可与击发驱动系统可操作地脱离接合,因此,击发驱动系统的操作可不使轴组件1200的端部执行器1300进行关节运动。当切换筒1500处于其第二位置时,关节运动驱动系统可以与击发驱动系统可操作地接合,因此,击发驱动系统的操作可以使轴组件1200的端部执行器1300进行关节运动。当切换筒1500在其第一位置和其第二位置之间运动时,切换筒1500相对于远侧连接器法兰运动。在各种情况下,轴组件1200可包括被构造成能够检测切换筒1500的位置的至少一个传感器。
再次参见图4,底座1240包括在其上形成的至少一个、优选两个渐缩的附接部分1244,这种附接部分适于被接收在对应的燕尾形狭槽1702内,该燕尾形狭槽在框架1020的远侧附接法兰部分1700内形成。参见图3。每个燕尾形狭槽1702可以是锥形,或换句话讲,可以略成V形,从而以坐置方式将附接部分1244接收在其中。如可在图4中进一步所见,轴附接凸耳1226形成在中间击发轴部分1222的近侧端部上。如将在下文进一步详细地讨论,当可互换轴组件1200联接到柄部1014时,轴附接凸耳1226被接收在形成于纵向驱动构件1120的远侧端部1125中的击发轴附接支架1126中。参见图3。
各种轴组件实施方案采用闩锁系统1710用于将轴组件1200可移除地联接到外壳1012并且更具体地联接到框架1020。如图4中可见,例如,在至少一种形式中,闩锁系统1710包括可动地联接到底座1240的锁构件或锁定轭1712。在例示的实施方案中,例如,锁定轭1712为U形,有两个隔开并向下延伸的腿部1714。腿部1714各自具有在其上形成的枢轴凸耳1715,这些枢轴凸耳适于被接收在底座1240中形成的对应孔1245中。这种布置有利于将锁定轭1712枢转附接到底座1240。锁定轭1712可包括两个朝近侧突起的锁定凸耳1716,这两个锁定凸耳被构造成能够与框架1020的远侧附接法兰部分1700中对应的锁定棘爪或凹槽1704可释放地接合。参见图3。在各种形式中,锁定轭1712被弹簧或偏压构件(未示出)沿近侧方向偏压。锁定轭1712的致动可通过闩锁按钮1722实现,该闩锁按钮可滑动地安装在安装于底座1240的闩锁致动器组件1720上。闩锁按钮1722可相对于锁定轭1712沿近侧方向偏压。如将在下文进一步详细地讨论,锁定轭1712可通过沿远侧方向偏压闩锁按钮而运动到解锁位置,这也使锁定轭1712枢转成不再与框架1020的远侧附接法兰部分1700保持接合。当锁定轭1712与框架1020的远侧附接法兰部分1700“保持接合”时,锁定凸耳1716保持安置在远侧附接法兰部分1700中对应的锁定棘爪或凹槽1704内。
当采用包括适于切割和紧固组织的本文所述类型的端部执行器以及其他类型的端部执行器的可互换轴组件时,可能有利的是防止可互换轴组件在端部执行器致动期间不经意地从外壳脱离。例如,在使用中,临床医生可致动闭合触发器1032以抓持目标组织并将其操纵成期望的位置。一旦目标组织以期望取向定位在端部执行器1300内,临床医生就可完全致动闭合触发器1032,以闭合砧座2000并将目标组织夹持在合适位置供切割与缝合。在这种情况下,第一驱动系统1030已被完全致动。在目标组织已被夹持在端部执行器1300中之后,可能有利的是防止轴组件1200不经意地从外壳1012脱离。闩锁系统1710的一种形式被构造成能够防止这种不经意的脱离。
如图4中可最清楚地看到的那样,锁定轭1712包括至少一个、优选两个锁钩1718,这些锁钩适于接触闭合梭动件1250上形成的对应锁定凸耳部分1256。在闭合梭动件1250处于未致动位置(也就是第一驱动系统1030未致动并且砧座2000打开)的情况下,锁定轭1712可沿远侧方向枢转,以将可互换轴组件1200从外壳1012解锁。处于该位置时,锁钩1718不接触闭合梭动件1250上的锁耳部分1256。但是,在闭合梭动件1250运动到致动位置(即第一驱动系统1030被致动并且砧座2000处于闭合位置)的情况下,锁定轭1712受到阻碍,不能枢转到解锁位置。换句话讲,如果临床医生试图将锁定轭1712枢转到解锁位置,或者例如,锁定轭1712不经意地以原本可能致使其向远侧枢转的方式受到碰撞或发生接触,则锁定轭1712上的锁钩1718将接触闭合梭动件1250上的锁定凸耳部分1256,并且防止锁定轭1712运动到解锁位置。
现在将描述可互换轴组件1200与柄部1014的附接。要开始联接过程,临床医生可将可互换轴组件1200的底座1240定位在框架1020的远侧附接法兰1700上方或附近,使得底座1240上形成的渐缩附接部分1244与框架1020中的燕尾形狭槽1702对准。然后临床医生可使轴组件1200沿垂直于轴轴线SA的安装轴线运动,以安置附接部分1244,使其与对应的燕尾形接收狭槽1702“可操作地接合”。这样做时,中间击发轴部分1222上的轴附接凸耳1226也将安置在能够纵向运动的驱动构件1120中的支架1126中,并且第二闭合连接件1038上的销1037的部分将安置在闭合梭动件1250中的对应钩1252中。如本文所用,术语“可操作地接合”在两个部件的背景下是指这两个部件彼此充分地接合,使得一旦向其施加致动动作,这些部件便可执行其预期行动、功能和/或程序。
可互换轴组件1200的至少五个系统可以与柄部1014的至少五个对应系统可操作地联接。第一系统可包括框架系统,该框架系统将轴组件1200的框架或脊与柄部1014的框架1020联接并/或对准。另一个系统可包括闭合驱动系统1030,该闭合驱动系统可将柄部1014的闭合触发器1032与轴组件1200的闭合管1260和砧座2000可操作地连接。如上文所概述,轴组件1200的闭合梭动件1250可与第二闭合连接件1038上的销1037接合。另一个系统可包括击发驱动系统1080,该击发驱动系统可将柄部1014的击发触发器1130与轴组件1200的中间击发轴部分1222可操作地连接。如上文所概述,轴附接凸耳1226可与纵向驱动构件1120的支架1126可操作地连接。另一个系统可包括电气系统,该电气系统能够:发送轴组件(诸如轴组件1200)已与柄部1014可操作地接合的信号到柄部1014中的控制器(诸如微控制器),并且/或者在轴组件1200与柄部1014之间传导功率和/或通信信号。例如,轴组件1200可包括可操作地安装到轴电路板1610的电连接器1810。电连接器1810被构造用于与柄部控制板1100上的对应电连接器1800配合接合。关于电路系统和控制系统的更多细节可见于美国专利申请序列号13/803,086(现为美国专利申请公布2014/0263541)和美国专利申请序列号14/226,142(现为美国专利9,913,642),这两者各自的完整公开内容此前以引用方式并入本文。第五系统可由用于可释放地将轴组件1200锁定到柄部1014的闩锁系统组成。
在例示的示例中,砧座2000包括终止于砧座安装部分2010中的砧座主体2002。砧座安装部分2010可动地或可枢转地支撑在细长通道1310上,以便于围绕横向于轴轴线SA的固定砧座枢转轴线PA相对于该细长通道选择性枢转行进。在例示的布置中,枢转构件或砧座耳轴2012侧向延伸出砧座安装部分2010的每个侧向侧,以接收在形成于细长通道1310的近侧端部部分1312的直立壁1315中的对应耳轴支架1316中。砧座耳轴2012由通道顶盖或砧座保持器1290枢转地保持在其对应的耳轴支架1316中。通道顶盖或砧座保持器1290包括一对附接凸耳,该对附接凸耳被构造成能够保持地接收在形成于细长通道1310的近侧端部部分1312的直立壁1315中的对应凸耳凹槽或凹口内。参见图5。
仍然参见图5,在至少一种布置中,远侧闭合构件或端部执行器闭合管3050采用两个轴向偏移的近侧正钳口打开特征部3060和远侧正钳口打开特征部3062。正钳口打开特征部3060、3062被构造成能够与在砧座安装部分2010上形成的对应的释放区域和阶梯部分交接,如在名称为“SURGICAL INSTRUMENT WITH AXIALLY MOVABLE CLOSURE MEMBER”的美国专利申请序列号15/635,631,现为美国专利申请公布2019/0000464中进一步详细描述的,其全部公开内容以引用方式并入本文。可采用其他钳口打开布置。
图6至图8示出了先前的外科切割和紧固器械5010,其被构造成能够产生旋转驱动动作以用于操作外科端部执行器5012。内窥镜式外科器械5010包括柄部5006、轴5008和在关节运动枢轴5014处枢转地连接至轴5008的进行关节运动的外科端部执行器5012。关节运动控件5016可邻近柄部5006提供,以实现端部执行器5012围绕关节运动枢轴5014的旋转。应当理解,各种实施方案可包括非枢转的端部执行器,并且因此可不具有关节运动枢轴5014或关节运动控件5016。
器械5010的柄部5006可包括用于致动端部执行器5012的闭合触发器5018和击发触发器5020。应当理解,具有涉及不同外科手术任务的端部执行器的器械可具有用于操作端部执行器5012的不同数量或类型的触发器或其他合适的控件。在一个实施方案中,器械5010的临床医生或操作者可通过利用关节运动控件5016使端部执行器5012相对于轴5008进行关节运动,如在名称为“SURGICAL INSTRUMENT HAVING AN ARTICULATING ENDEFFECTOR”的未决美国专利7,670,334中更详细地描述,该专利的全部公开内容以引用方式并入本文。在该示例中,端部执行器5012包括(除了别的以外)钉通道5022和能够枢转地平移的夹持构件诸如砧座5024,该钉通道和能够枢转地平移的夹持构件保持在确保有效缝合和切断夹持在端部执行器5012中的组织的间距处。柄部5006包括手枪式握把5026,临床医生将闭合触发器5018枢转地拉向该手枪式握把,以使砧座5024朝端部执行器5012的钉通道5022夹持或闭合,从而夹持定位在砧座5024和通道5022之间的组织。
在图7所示的布置中,除了前述通道5022和砧座5024之外,端部执行器5012还包括切割器械5032、滑动件5033、可移除地安置在通道5022中的钉仓5034、以及螺旋状螺杆轴5036。切割器械5032可为例如刀。砧座5024包括枢轴销5025,该枢轴销被可动地支撑在通道5022中的对应狭槽中。在一种布置中,砧座5024包括位于其近侧端部处的接片5027,该接片插入机械闭合系统(下文进一步描述)的部件中以打开和闭合砧座5024。
仍然参见图7,轴5008包括由枢转连接件5044枢转地连接的近侧闭合管5040和远侧闭合管5042。远侧闭合管5042包括开口5045,砧座5024上的接片5027插入该开口中,以便打开和闭合砧座5024,如下文进一步所述。近侧脊管5046可设置在闭合管5040、5042内。主旋转(或近侧)驱动轴5048可设置在近侧脊管5046内,该主旋转(或近侧)驱动轴经由锥齿轮组件5052a-c与次(或远侧)驱动轴5050连通。次驱动轴5050连接至驱动齿轮5054,该驱动齿轮接合螺旋状螺杆轴5036的近侧驱动齿轮5056。竖直锥齿轮5052b可位于近侧脊管5046的远侧端部中的开口5057中并在其中枢转。远侧脊管5058可用于包封次驱动轴5050和驱动齿轮5054、5056。主驱动轴5048、次驱动轴5050和关节运动组件(例如,锥齿轮组件5052a-c)在本文中有时统称为“主驱动轴组件”。
定位在钉通道5022的远侧端部处的轴承5038接收螺旋状螺杆轴5036,从而允许螺旋状螺杆轴5036相对于通道5022自由地旋转。螺旋状螺杆轴5036可与刀5032的螺纹开口(未示出)交接,使得螺旋状螺杆轴5036的旋转致使刀5032朝远侧或朝近侧(取决于旋转方向)平移穿过钉通道5022。
接下来转到图8,柄部5006包括外部下侧件5059、5060和喷嘴件5061、5062,它们装配在一起以总体上形成柄部5006的外部。电池5064诸如锂离子电池可设置在柄部5006的手枪式握把部分5026中。电池5064为设置在柄部5006的手枪式握把部5026的上部部分中的马达5065供电。马达5065可驱动包括第一锥齿轮5068和第二锥齿轮5070的90°锥齿轮组件5066。锥齿轮组件5066可驱动行星齿轮组件5072。行星齿轮组件5072可包括连接到驱动轴5076的小齿轮5074。小齿轮5074可驱动配对的环形齿轮5078,该配对的环形齿轮经由驱动轴驱动螺旋齿轮鼓5080。环5084可螺纹接合在螺旋齿轮鼓5080上。因此,当马达5065旋转时,通过插置的锥齿轮组件5066、行星齿轮组件5072和环形齿轮5078使环5084沿着螺旋齿轮鼓5080行进。
柄部5006可包括与击发触发器5020的上部部分相邻的中间柄部件5104。柄部5006还可包括连接在中间柄部件5104上的柱与击发触发器5020上的柱之间的偏压弹簧5112。偏压弹簧5112可将击发触发器5020偏压到其完全打开位置。这样,当操作者释放击发触发器5020时,偏压弹簧5112将击发触发器5020牵拉至其打开位置。螺旋齿轮鼓5080的远侧端部包括驱动环形齿轮5122的远侧驱动轴5120,该环形齿轮与小齿轮5124配合。小齿轮5124连接到主驱动轴组件的主驱动轴5048。这样,马达5065的旋转导致主驱动轴组件旋转,这导致端部执行器5012的致动。螺纹接合在螺旋齿轮鼓5080上的环5084可包括设置在开槽臂5090的狭槽5088内的柱5086。开槽臂5090在其相对端部5094中具有开口5092,该开口接收连接在柄部外侧件5059、5060之间的枢轴销5096。枢轴销5096还设置成穿过击发触发器5020中的开口5100和中间柄部件5104中的开口5102。
中间柄部件5104包括接合开槽臂5090的后侧肩部5106。中间柄部件5104还具有与击发触发器5020接合的向前动作止挡件5107。开槽臂5090的运动由马达5065的旋转控制。当开槽臂5090随着环5084从螺旋齿轮鼓5080的近侧端部行进至远侧端部而逆时针旋转时,中间柄部件5104将自由地逆时针旋转。因此,当使用者拉近击发触发器5020时,击发触发器5020将接合中间柄部件5104的前移止挡件5107,从而使中间柄部件5104逆时针旋转。然而,由于后侧肩部5106接合开槽臂5090,因此中间柄部件5104将仅能够在开槽臂5090允许的范围内逆时针旋转。这样,如果马达5065出于某种原因应该停止旋转,则开槽臂5090将停止旋转,并且使用者将不能进一步拉近击发触发器5020,因为中间柄部件5104将由于开槽臂5090而不能自由地逆时针旋转。
图8中还示出了用于通过回缩闭合触发器5018来闭合(或夹持)端部执行器5012的砧座5024的示例性闭合系统的部件。在例示的实施方案中,闭合系统包括连接到闭合触发器5018的轭5250。枢轴销5252穿过闭合触发器5018和轭5250两者中的对准开口插入,使得它们两者围绕相同点旋转。轭5250的远侧端部经由销5254连接到第一闭合托架5256。第一闭合托架5256连接到第二闭合托架5258。闭合托架5256、5258共同限定开口,近侧闭合管5040(参见图7)的近侧端部安置并保持在该开口中,使得闭合托架5256、5258的纵向运动引起近侧闭合管5040的纵向动作。器械5010还包括设置在近侧闭合管5040内的闭合驱动轴5260。闭合驱动轴5260可包括窗口5261,位于柄部外部件之一(诸如例示的实施方案中的外部下侧件5059)上的柱5263设置在该窗口中,以将闭合驱动轴5260固定地连接至柄部5006。这样,近侧闭合管5040能够相对于闭合驱动轴5260纵向运动。闭合驱动轴5260还可包括远侧套环5267,该远侧套环装配到近侧脊管5046中的腔中并且通过顶盖保持在其中。
在操作中,当轭5250由于闭合触发器5018的回缩而旋转时,闭合托架5256、5258使得近侧闭合管5040朝远侧运动(即,远离器械5010的柄部端部),这使得远侧闭合管5042朝远侧运动,从而使得砧座5024围绕枢轴销5025旋转到夹持或闭合位置。当闭合触发器5018从锁定位置解锁时,致使近侧闭合管5040朝近侧滑动,这致使远侧闭合管5042朝近侧滑动,这借助于将接片5027插入远侧闭合管5042的开口5045中,致使砧座5024围绕枢轴销5025枢转到打开或松开位置中。这样,通过回缩并锁定闭合触发器5018,操作者可将组织夹持在砧座5024和通道5022之间,并且可在切割/缝合操作之后通过将闭合触发器5018从锁定位置解锁来松开组织。关于现有外科器械5010的构造和操作的更多细节可见于名称为“SURGICAL INSTRUMENT HAVING RECORDING CAPABILITIES”的美国专利7,845,537,该专利的全部公开内容据此以引用方式并入本文。被构造用于与各种形式的机器人系统一起使用的其他旋转驱动布置公开于名称为“STAPLING END EFFECTOR CONFIGURED TO COMPENSATEFOR AN UNEVEN GAP BETWEEN A FIRST JAW AND A SECOND JAW”的美国专利申请公布2016/0287251中,该专利申请公布的全部公开内容据此以引用方式并入本文。
下面转到图9和图10,图中示出了可再利用或不可再利用的另一个马达驱动的外科切割和紧固器械10010。在例示的实施方案中,器械10010包括外壳10012,该外壳包括被构造成能够被临床医生抓持、操纵和致动的柄部10014。如在图9中可见,例如器械10010包括轴组件10200,该轴组件具有可操作地联接到其的外科端部执行器10300,该外科端部执行器被构造成能够执行一种或多种外科任务或外科手术。在一种布置中,轴组件10200包括可互换轴组件,该可互换轴组件旨在能够以本文所公开的各种方式可移除地联接到柄部组件10014。然而,轴组件10200还可包括不旨在从柄部10014移除的专用轴组件。下文将仅更详细地讨论理解轴组件10200的功能和操作所必需的那些特定部件。
如在图9中可见,例如外科端部执行器10300包括被构造成能够在其中可操作地支撑钉仓10400的细长通道10310。端部执行器10300还包括砧座10500,该砧座能够相对于细长通道10310枢转地被支撑。在一种布置中,例如,砧座10500可使用名称为“METHOD FORFABRICATING SURGICAL STAPLER ANVILS”的美国专利申请序列号16/105,101中描述的各种制造技术来制造,该专利申请的全部公开内容据此以引用方式并入本文。轴组件10200还可包括关节运动接头10250,该关节运动接头有助于外科端部执行器10300围绕关节运动轴线AA进行关节运动,该关节运动轴线AA横向于纵向轴轴线LA。然而,其他轴组件可能无法进行关节运动。在例示的示例中,轴组件10200包括从喷嘴组件10202朝远侧延伸的近侧外轴管或构件10210。细长通道的近侧端部10312包括管状部分10314,该管状部分在尺寸上类似于近侧外轴管10120并且联接到近侧外轴管10210的远侧端部以形成关节运动接头10250。关节运动接头10250包括双枢轴轴组件10252。参见图11和图12。根据各种形式,细长通道10310的管状部分10314包括朝近侧突出的上部柄脚10316和下部柄脚10318。参见图11。上部双枢轴连接件10320包括向上突出的远侧枢轴销和近侧枢轴销,这些枢轴销分别接合近侧外轴管10210上的朝近侧突出的上部柄脚10316中的上部销孔以及朝远侧突出的上部柄脚10212中的上部远侧销孔。下部双枢轴连接件10322包括向下突出的远侧枢轴销和近侧枢轴销,这些枢轴销分别接合近侧外轴管10210中的朝近侧突出的下部柄脚10318中的下部远侧销孔以及朝远侧突出的下部柄脚10214中的下部近侧销孔。参见图11。轴组件10200还包括内部脊构件10230,该内部脊构件枢转地联接到插入件组件10330,该插入件组件被接收在细长通道10310的管状部分10314内并且通过例如焊接、粘合剂、紧固件等附接到其上。内部脊构件10230的近侧端部可以例如本文所公开的各种方式可旋转地联接到喷嘴组件10202内的底座(未示出)。内部脊构件10230的远侧端部可销接到插入件组件10330,以有利于细长通道10310相对于内部脊构件10230的枢转行进。
在例示的示例中,外科端部执行器10300能够由关节运动系统10260围绕关节运动轴线AA选择性地进行关节运动。在一种形式中,关节运动系统10260包括例如被可操作地支撑在喷嘴组件10202中的关节运动马达10262。参见图10。在其他示例中,关节运动马达10262可以被可操作地支撑在外壳10012或柄部10014或机器人系统的其他部分中。参见图10,关节运动马达10262联接到与驱动齿轮齿条10266啮合接合的关节运动驱动齿轮10264,该驱动齿轮齿条附接到近侧关节运动驱动器10268或以其他方式形成于该近侧关节运动驱动器中。近侧关节运动驱动器10268的远侧端部枢转地联接到远侧关节运动连接件10270。如在图12中可见,偏移附接凸耳10272形成于近侧关节运动驱动器10268的远侧端部10271上。枢轴孔形成于偏移附接凸耳10272中,并且被构造成能够将形成于远侧关节运动连接件10270的近侧端部10274上的近侧连接件销10276枢转地接收在其中。远侧关节运动连接件10270的远侧端部10278包括枢轴孔,该枢轴孔被构造成能够将形成于插入件组件10330上的通道销10332枢转地接收在其中。关节运动马达10262的操作将使近侧关节运动驱动器10268轴向运动。近侧关节运动驱动器10268的轴向运动将向细长通道10310施加关节运动动作,从而使外科端部执行器10300相对于内部脊构件10230围绕关节运动轴线AA进行关节运动。可以本文所公开的各种方式使用其他关节运动系统和布置。在其他实施方案中,外科端部执行器可能不能够进行关节运动。
在至少一种布置中,外科端部执行器10300包括击发构件,该击发构件能够在外科端部执行器10300内在起始位置和结束位置之间轴向运动。如将在下文进一步详细地讨论,击发构件可被构造成能够切断夹持在砧座10500与被可操作地支撑在细长通道10310中的外科钉仓10400之间的组织。在一种布置中,钉仓10400包括被可操作地支撑在对应驱动器上的多排外科钉或紧固件,这些对应驱动器被可动地支撑在仓中。随着朝远侧驱动击发构件,击发构件与支撑在钉仓中的滑动件或凸轮作用组件协作,该滑动件或凸轮作用组件用于在朝向闭合砧座的方向上行进驱动器,这使得支撑在其上的钉或紧固件刺穿所夹持的组织而与闭合砧座的下侧形成接触。一旦击发构件已在端部执行器内从其近侧起始位置朝远侧行进到其结束位置,则其可回缩回到其起始位置以允许砧座打开,从而有利于从端部执行器移除所切割/缝合的组织。在其他布置中,击发构件可留在结束位置处,其中允许其与砧座脱离结合以有利于打开砧座。
在至少一种布置中,外科器械10010还采用击发系统10600,该击发系统被构造成能够向击发构件施加旋转驱动动作以在起始位置和结束位置之间驱动击发构件。在图10所示的示例中,击发系统10600包括例如被可操作地支撑在喷嘴组件10202中的击发马达10602。在其他示例中,击发马达10602可以被可操作地支撑在外壳或柄部或机器人系统的其他部分中。击发马达10602联接到击发驱动齿轮10604,该击发驱动齿轮与从动齿轮10606啮合接合,该从动齿轮附接到旋转击发驱动轴10610或以其他方式形成于该旋转击发驱动轴中。如在图11和图12中可见,击发驱动轴10610可以是柔性的,以允许外科端部执行器10300以上述方式进行关节运动。
图13示出了可用于外科端部执行器10300中的旋转驱动击发构件10620的一个示例。如在图13中可见,击发构件10620包括主体部分10622,该主体部分包括两个向下延伸的中空安装部分10624,这两个中空安装部分为无螺纹的并且彼此间隔开以在它们之间接收螺纹驱动螺母10630。螺纹驱动螺母10630螺纹接合到旋转击发驱动轴10610的螺纹部分10612上。旋转击发驱动轴10610的远侧端部10614可被构造成能够可旋转地支撑在容纳在细长通道内的轴承(未示出)中,并且被构造成能够在其中可旋转地支撑旋转击发驱动轴10610。驱动螺母10630包括竖直接片部分10632,该竖直接片部分定尺寸成延伸穿过细长通道的底部中的轴向狭槽。两个侧向延伸的通道接合法兰10634形成于螺纹驱动螺母10630上并且被构造成能够接合细长通道的底部。此外,两个侧向延伸的砧座接合接片10626形成于击发构件主体10622的顶部上,并且被构造成能够在击发构件10620在端部执行器10300内轴向运动时接合形成于砧座10500中的对应凸缘。、在该布置中,击发构件10620包括凸轮作用滑动件接合特征部10628,该凸轮滑动件接合特征部被构造成能够可操作地接合可动地储存在钉仓中的凸轮作用组件。凸轮作用滑动件或凸轮作用组件(未示出)可包括附接到击发构件10620的组织切割构件或组织切割特征部。击发构件10620可储存在未击发钉仓内并且被构造成能够在仓可操作地安装在细长通道内时安置在螺纹驱动螺母10630上。然而,也可采用多种其他旋转驱动击发构件布置。例如,也可采用永久性地被螺纹接合到旋转击发驱动轴上的击发构件和组织切割构件。在各个方面,当击发构件10620朝远侧被驱动穿过外科钉仓10400时,通过砧座接合接片10626与砧座10500的接合以及通道接合法兰10634与通道10310的接合,击发构件10620可用于在钉仓10400上的平台表面10402与砧座10500上的钉成形下表面10502之间保持所需量的组织间隙。参见图9。
在图10至图21所示的示例中,除了旋转驱动击发系统之外,外科器械10010还包括旋转驱动闭合系统10700,该旋转驱动闭合系统被构造成能够向砧座10500施加旋转闭合动作。如在图10中可见,例如,在一种布置中,旋转驱动闭合系统10700包括例如被可操作地支撑在喷嘴组件10202中的闭合马达10702。在其他示例中,闭合马达10702可以被可操作地支撑在外壳或柄部或机器人系统的其他部分中。闭合马达10702联接到闭合驱动齿轮10704,该击发驱动齿轮与从动齿轮10706啮合接合,该从动齿轮附接到旋转闭合驱动轴10710或以其他方式形成于该旋转击发驱动轴中。如在图11和图12中可见,闭合驱动轴10710可以是柔性的,以允许外科端部执行器10300以上述方式进行关节运动。
在例示的示例中,外科端部执行器10300包括砧座10500,该砧座包括被构造成能够枢转地附接到插入件组件10330的远侧插入件部分10334的朝近侧延伸的安装接片10510。在另选的布置中,远侧插入件部分10334可与插入件组件10330分离,并且以其他方式通过焊接、粘合剂、紧固件等附接到细长通道10310的近侧端部部分10312。在其他布置中,远侧插入件部分10334可实际上包括细长通道10310的一部分并且与其一体形成。在例示的布置中,砧座安装接片10510包括远侧部分10512,横向狭槽10514延伸穿过该远侧部分,并且与远侧插入件部分10334中的横向狭槽10336以及细长通道10310的管状部分10314中的狭槽10315对准。参见图18。砧座安装接片10510通过铆钉10340枢转地附接到细长通道10310。砧座安装接片10510以及远侧插入件部分10334足够稳固以在铆钉10340操作时提供足够的强度,这提供了将枢转附接点定位在端部执行器的中心线或中点上方的能力,从而在其中为击发构件部件和旋转驱动部件提供足够的空间。铆钉10340的轨道形成将砧座安装接片10510枢转地系紧到细长通道10310,并且可移除用于将铆钉10340置于完全或显著完全剪切以抵抗闭合负载的过度间隙或运动(公差斜率)。此外,此类部件之间的相对较宽的接触还可用于防止或最小化砧座安装接片10510和细长通道10310之间的扭转。
如在图14、图15和图17中可见,砧座10500非对称地联接到细长通道10310。换句话讲,砧座10500附接到细长通道10310的位置从端部执行器中心线EC侧向偏移。在至少一种布置中,铆钉10340包括直径为0.05"至0.1"的实芯铆钉和在铆钉柄部10344的一个端部上形成的轨道形成的头部10342,以及在铆钉柄部10344的另一个端部上形成的机加工头部10346。在一种布置中,铆接以一定方式进行,使得铆钉10340将保持最终成形高度,该最终成形高度将确保砧座安装接片10510与细长通道10310的对应附接部分之间的紧密接触。“轨道形成的”头部10342将使砧座安装接片10510和细长通道部分的该侧上的铆钉柄部10344溶胀,这可防止铆钉相对于该部分旋转,而另一个“预机加工”侧10346将不具有可允许相邻部件旋转的溶胀柄部部分。在一个示例中,铆钉10340相对于通道部分固定以避免其中砧座相对于插入件和细长通道自由枢转的状况。
图10至图19所示的示例采用被构造成能够向砧座10500施加打开动作和闭合动作的旋转致动闭合系统10700。在一种布置中,闭合系统10700包括闭合连杆组件10716,该闭合连杆组件枢转地联接到砧座安装接片10510以用于相对于该砧座安装接片围绕共同闭合轴线CA枢转行进。如在图19和图20中可见,闭合驱动轴10710包括螺纹驱动段10714,该螺纹驱动段被构造成能够通过螺纹接合由驱动轭10720支撑的驱动螺母10730。驱动轭10720包括两个轭臂10722,这两个轭臂具有穿过其中的无螺纹孔10724以允许闭合驱动轴10710穿过其中。驱动螺母10730具有穿过其中的螺纹孔10732,该螺纹孔螺纹接合到闭合驱动轴10710的螺纹驱动段10714上并且被接收在轭臂10722之间。闭合连接件10740通过销10742枢转地联接到驱动轭10720。闭合连接件10740还通过销10744枢转地附接(销接)到砧座安装接片10510。参见图19。如在图19中可见,提供间隔件构件10746以填充闭合连接件10740与砧座安装接片10510的间隔臂10516之间的间隔。另选地,闭合连接件的尺寸和形状可被设计成填充该间隔。如在图19中进一步可见,保持器接片10311形成于细长通道10310中以限定用于在其中可滑动地接收驱动轭10720的轴向槽10313。旋转闭合驱动轴10710在第一旋转方向上旋转将使驱动轭10720朝远侧运动并且使闭合连接件10740在打开方向上牵拉砧座安装接片10510,这使砧座10500围绕枢转轴线PA枢转到打开位置。同样,旋转闭合驱动轴10710在第二旋转方向上旋转将使驱动轭10720朝近侧运动并且使闭合连接件10740在闭合方向上推动砧座安装接片10510,这使砧座10500围绕枢转轴线PA枢转到闭合位置。在各个方面,旋转驱动闭合系统10700可在旋转驱动击发系统10600的致动期间被致动,使得当击发构件被轴向驱动穿过钉仓时,闭合系统10700继续向砧座施加附加的闭合动作。
图22和图23示出了另选的闭合驱动布置,其中砧座10500'的砧座安装接片10510'大致居中支撑在端部执行器内。砧座安装部分10510'可以上述方式枢转地联接到细长通道10310'。在该布置中,旋转闭合驱动轴10710'为中空的并且在其中同心地支撑旋转击发轴10610'。旋转闭合驱动轴10710'和旋转击发驱动轴10610'居中设置在细长通道10310'内,如在图23中可见。旋转击发驱动轴10610'可旋转地延伸穿过旋转闭合驱动轴10710'并且包括远侧螺纹部分10612',该远侧螺纹部分被构造成能够例如以上述方式通过螺纹驱动击发构件10620。
图22和图23所示的示例采用被构造成能够向砧座10500'施加打开动作和闭合动作的旋转致动闭合连杆组件10716'。在一种布置中,闭合连杆组件10716'包括近侧驱动轭组件10720'和远侧驱动轭组件10750。近侧驱动轭组件10720'包括两个间隔轭臂10722',这两个间隔轭臂具有穿过其中的无螺纹孔10724'以允许闭合驱动轴10710'穿过其中。近侧驱动螺母10730'被接收在间隔轭臂10722'之间并且包括螺纹孔以用于通过螺纹接合旋转闭合驱动轴10710'上的近侧螺纹段10712'。近侧驱动轭组件10720’枢转地联接到近侧闭合连接件10740',该近侧闭合连接件枢转地销接到砧座安装部分10510'。远侧驱动轭组件10750包括两个间隔轭臂10752,这两个间隔轭臂具有穿过其中的无螺纹孔10754以允许闭合驱动轴10710'穿过其中。远侧驱动螺母10760被接收在间隔轭臂10752之间并且包括螺纹孔以用于通过螺纹接合旋转闭合驱动轴10710'上的远侧螺纹段10714'。近侧螺纹段10712'和远侧螺纹段10714'在相反方向上被螺纹接合。远侧驱动轭组件10750枢转地联接到U形远侧闭合连接件10770,该U形远侧闭合连接件枢转地销接到砧座安装部分10510'。U形远侧闭合连接件10770为闭合连杆组件10716'提供对称的承重布置。旋转闭合驱动轴10710'在第一旋转方向上旋转将使近侧驱动轭10720'和远侧驱动轭组件10750远离彼此轴向运动以在打开方向上牵拉砧座安装接片10510',从而使砧座10500'围绕枢转轴线PA枢转到打开位置。同样,旋转闭合驱动轴10710'在第二旋转方向上旋转将使近侧驱动轭10720'和远侧驱动轭组件10750朝彼此运动并且在闭合方向上推动砧座安装接片10510',从而使砧座10500'围绕枢转轴线PA枢转到闭合位置。此类布置可用于向砧座10500'施加大体更大的闭合力。应当理解,旋转击发驱动轴10610'能够相对于旋转闭合驱动轴10710'独立地旋转。在各个方面,旋转驱动闭合系统10700可在旋转驱动击发系统10600的致动期间被致动,使得当击发构件被轴向驱动穿过钉仓时,闭合系统10700继续向砧座施加附加的闭合动作。
图24至图27示出了采用闭合驱动布置的另一个外科端部执行器10800,其中砧座10802的砧座安装接片10804居中地支撑在端部执行器10800内,并且两个旋转闭合轴10830和10840用于向砧座10802施加闭合动作。在该布置中,砧座安装接片10804的远侧部分10806包括一对侧向延伸的枢转构件10808,该对枢转构件适于枢转地支撑在细长通道10310"的远侧安装部分的直立壁10354中的枢转支架10356中。参见图27。因此,枢转构件10808能够在其对应的枢转支架10356内竖直运动或“浮动”。在该布置中,旋转击发驱动轴10610(图26)被竖直地支撑在旋转闭合驱动轴10710(图24和图25)上方。在例示的示例中,旋转击发驱动轴10610包括击发驱动齿轮10611,该击发驱动齿轮被构造成能够驱动地接合远侧击发驱动轴10613上的从动齿轮(未示出),该远侧击发驱动轴以本文所述的各种方式可旋转地支撑在细长通道10310"中。参见图27。击发构件驱动螺母10630螺纹接合在远侧击发驱动轴10613上并且用于在旋转击发驱动轴10610以本文所述的方式旋转时驱动端部执行器10800内的击发构件10620。
如在图24和图25中可见,旋转闭合驱动轴10710包括居中设置在右远侧闭合轴10830和左远侧闭合轴10840之间的闭合驱动齿轮10715。右远侧闭合轴10830包括与闭合驱动齿轮10715啮合接合的右从动齿轮10832,并且左远侧闭合轴10840包括也与闭合驱动齿轮10715啮合接合的左从动齿轮10842。旋转闭合驱动轴10710的旋转将导致右远侧闭合轴10830在第一旋转方向上旋转以及左远侧闭合轴10840在第二旋转方向上旋转。
图24至图26所示的示例采用被构造成能够向砧座10802施加打开动作和闭合动作的旋转致动的右闭合连杆组件10850和旋转致动的左闭合连杆组件10860。在一种布置中,右闭合连杆组件10850包括近侧驱动螺母组件10852,该近侧驱动螺母组件螺纹接合到右远侧闭合轴10830上并且联接到附接到砧座安装接片10804的右闭合连接件10854。同样,左闭合连杆组件10860包括左驱动螺母组件10862,该左驱动螺母组件螺纹接合到左远侧闭合轴10840上并且联接到附接到砧座安装接片10804的左闭合连接件10864。在一种布置中,右远侧闭合轴10830和左远侧闭合轴10840的直径D可为约0.078"。参见图26。右驱动螺母组件10852与左驱动螺母组件10862之间的间隔“E”可为约0.093",并且通道10310"的宽度“W”可为约0.256"。然而,可采用端部执行器部件的其他尺寸和形状。旋转闭合驱动轴10710在第一旋转方向上旋转将使右驱动螺母组件10852和左驱动螺母组件10862以同步方式运动,从而以平衡均匀的方式打开砧座10802。旋转闭合驱动轴10710在第二旋转方向上旋转将使右驱动螺母组件10852和左驱动螺母组件10862以同步方式运动,从而在砧座10802枢转闭合时以平衡均匀的方式闭合砧座10802并减少砧座10802上的任何扭转力矩。
如在图24和图25中还可见,砧座安装接片10804包括穹顶形或球形远侧表面部分10809。闭合环10811(图27)可动地轴颈连接在球形远侧表面部分10809上。当砧座10802通过右闭合连杆组件10850和左闭合连杆组件10860枢转到闭合位置时,闭合环10811用于将砧座10802约束到细长通道10310"。图24示出了处于闭合位置的砧座10802。如在图24中可见,连接件10854和10864几乎垂直于(竖直于)端部执行器轴线EC。此类布置建立了用于将砧座10802保持在闭合位置的最大力矩臂MA。图25示出了处于打开位置的砧座10802。例如,砧座10802以与水平面成约20°的角度向上枢转,如图所示。当处于该位置时,连接件10854和10864几乎是水平的(相对于彼此),这导致施加比当砧座运动到闭合位置时建立的闭合力更小量的闭合力。在一种布置中,连接件10854和10864可具有例如约0.150"的长度L。在各个方面,旋转驱动闭合系统10700可在旋转驱动击发系统10600的致动期间被致动,使得当击发构件被轴向驱动穿过钉仓时,闭合系统10700继续向砧座施加附加的闭合动作。
图28至图31示出了采用闭合驱动布置的另一个外科端部执行器10800',其中砧座10802'的砧座安装接片10804'也居中地支撑在端部执行器10800'内,并且两个旋转闭合轴10830和10840用于向砧座10802'施加闭合动作。参见图29。在一种布置中,例如,砧座10802'可使用名称为“METHOD FOR FABRICATING SURGICAL STAPLER ANVILS”的美国专利申请序列号16/105,101中描述的各种制造技术来制造,该专利申请的全部公开内容据此以引用方式并入本文。在该布置中,砧座安装接片10804'的远侧部分10806'包括一对侧向延伸的枢转构件10808',该对枢转构件适于枢转地支撑在细长通道10310"的远侧安装部分10352"的直立壁10354"中的枢转支架10356"中。参见图30和图31。因此,枢转构件10808'能够在其对应的枢转支架10356"内竖直运动或“浮动”。在该布置中,旋转击发驱动轴10610(类似于图26所示)被竖直地支撑在细长轴中的旋转闭合驱动轴10710(图24和图25)上方。如上文所讨论,在例示的示例中,旋转击发驱动轴(未示出)包括击发驱动齿轮(未示出),该击发驱动齿轮被构造成能够驱动地接合远侧击发驱动轴10613'上的从动齿轮(未示出),该远侧击发驱动轴以本文所述的各种方式可旋转地支撑在细长通道10310"中。参见图28和图29。远侧击发驱动轴10613'被构造成能够在旋转击发驱动轴和远侧击发驱动轴10613'以本文所述的方式旋转时通过螺纹驱动端部执行器10800'内的击发构件10620'。
如上所述,旋转闭合驱动轴10710包括居中设置在右远侧闭合轴10830和左远侧闭合轴10840之间的闭合驱动齿轮10715。参见图29至图31。右远侧闭合轴10830包括与闭合驱动齿轮10715啮合接合的右从动齿轮,并且左远侧闭合轴10840包括也与闭合驱动齿轮10715啮合接合的左从动齿轮10842。旋转闭合驱动轴10710的旋转将导致右远侧闭合轴10830在第一旋转方向上旋转以及左远侧闭合轴10840在第二旋转方向上旋转。图30和图31的示例采用被构造成能够向砧座10802'施加打开动作和闭合动作的旋转致动的右闭合连杆组件10850和旋转致动的左闭合连杆组件10860。在一种布置中,右闭合连杆组件10850包括近侧驱动螺母组件10852,该近侧驱动螺母组件螺纹接合到右远侧闭合轴10830上并且联接到附接到砧座安装接片10804'右闭合连接件10854。同样,左闭合连杆组件10860包括左驱动螺母组件10862,该左驱动螺母组件螺纹接合到左远侧闭合轴10840上并且联接到附接到砧座安装接片10804'左闭合连接件10864。旋转闭合驱动轴10710在第一旋转方向上旋转将使右驱动螺母组件10852和左驱动螺母组件10862以同步方式运动,从而以平衡均匀的方式打开砧座10802'。旋转闭合驱动轴10710在第二旋转方向上旋转将使右驱动螺母组件10852和左驱动螺母组件10862以同步方式运动,从而在砧座10802'枢转闭合时以平衡均匀的方式闭合砧座10802'并减少砧座10802'上的任何扭转力矩。
如在图30至图32中可见,砧座安装接片10804'包括穹顶形或球形远侧表面部分10809'。闭合环10811'可动地轴颈连接在球形远侧表面部分10809'上。当砧座10802'通过右闭合连杆组件10850和左闭合连杆组件10860枢转到闭合位置时,闭合环10811'用于将砧座10802约束到细长通道10310"。在例示的示例中,枢转弹簧10813'安置在支架10356"中的每个支架中,该支架用于将枢转构件10808'在其相应支架10356"中向上偏压。在至少一种布置中,球形表面部分10809'的远侧部分包括浅凹口区域10815',该浅凹口区域为闭合环10811'提供附加间隙以使砧座10802'能够进一步枢转打开,例如,其中砧座10802'的下表面10803'与安置在通道10310"内的外科钉仓的平台表面成至少20°(角度A)。参见图30。例如,枢转构件10808'的中心到球形表面10809'之间的径向距离在图30和图31中被指定为“r”。从枢转构件10808'的中心线到凹口区域10815'的径向距离被指定为“r'”,其中r'>r。
图30示出了处于完全打开位置的砧座10802'。如在图30中可见,闭合环10811'与枢转构件10808'约轴向对准,该枢转构件用于将枢转构件10808'驱动到其相应支架10356"的底部中并压缩其中的枢转弹簧10813'。图31示出了处于闭合位置的砧座10802',其中闭合环10811'略微朝近侧从枢转构件10808'轴向偏移,这允许枢转弹簧10813'在其相应支架10356"内向上偏压枢转构件10808'。
这些实施方案中的闭合环基本上环绕对应的砧座部分和细长通道部分。为了有利于将砧座打开至所需的开口孔或开角度,允许闭合环朝近侧运动到远侧少量(例如,0.0"至0.1"),同时被弹簧偏压到远侧位置。该环不引起闭合,而是仅约束砧座和通道竖直运动分开,从而允许在两个部件之间发生枢转动作。此类布置有利于更厚砧座的使用,尤其是在砧座安装区域中的使用,这可改善砧座强度和可靠性。该布置还可使得钳口(砧座和通道)能够以改善砧座位于枢转位置近侧的力矩臂状态的方式枢转,并且有利于将端部执行器打开到更大的打开角度。在各个方面,旋转驱动闭合系统10700可在旋转驱动击发系统10600的致动期间被致动,使得当击发构件被轴向驱动穿过钉仓时,闭合系统10700继续向砧座施加附加的闭合动作。
图33至图35示出了另一个端部执行器10900,其采用另选的闭合驱动布置以用于相对于其细长通道10910打开和闭合砧座10920。砧座10920包括砧座安装接片10922,该砧座安装接片沿砧座10920的中心线朝近侧突起并且以本文所公开的各种方式枢转地联接到细长通道10910的近侧端部10912。在一种布置中,例如,砧座10920可使用名称为“METHODFOR FABRICATING SURGICAL STAPLER ANVILS”的美国专利申请序列号16/105,101中描述的各种制造技术来制造,该专利申请的全部公开内容据此以引用方式并入本文。在该布置中,旋转闭合驱动轴10710'为中空的并且在其中同心地支撑旋转击发驱动轴10610'。旋转闭合驱动轴10710'和旋转击发驱动轴10610'居中设置在细长通道10910内,如在图33中可见。旋转击发驱动轴10610'可旋转地延伸穿过旋转闭合驱动轴10710'并且包括远侧螺纹部分10612',该远侧螺纹部分被构造成能够例如以上述方式通过螺纹驱动击发构件10620。
参见图33,闭合梭动件10940被支撑用于在细长通道10910内轴向行进。闭合梭动件10940通过螺纹轴颈连接在螺纹闭合驱动轴10710'上,使得螺纹闭合驱动轴10710'在第一方向上旋转导致闭合梭动件10940朝远侧运动,并且螺纹闭合驱动轴10710'在第二旋转方向上旋转导致闭合梭动件10940在细长通道10910内朝近侧运动。如在图33中可见,右闭合连接件10950和左闭合连接件10960枢转地联接到砧座安装接片10922。右闭合连接件10950还包括接收在闭合梭动件10940中的对应的右致动凹口10942内的致动端部10952,并且左闭合连接件10960包括接收在闭合梭动件10940中的对应的左致动凹口10944内的致动端部10962。同样在例示的布置中,右驱动凹口10954设置在右闭合连接件10950的致动端部10952中,并且左驱动凹口10964设置在左闭合连接件10960的致动端部10962中。驱动凹口10954、10964被构造成能够分别驱动地接合致动凹口10942、10944。
图33和图35示出了处于最近侧回缩位置的闭合梭动件10940。当处于该位置时,右闭合连接件10950和左闭合连接件10960向上推动砧座安装接片10922并使砧座10920围绕枢转轴线PA枢转到闭合位置。当闭合梭动件10940已运动到其最远侧延伸位置时,右闭合连接件10950和左闭合连接件10960向下牵拉砧座接片10922并将砧座10920枢转到打开位置,如图34所示。图36示出了外科端部执行器10900的各种部件的一些示例性尺寸。在一种布置中,例如,总高度“H”可为约0.500"。砧座高度“AH”可为约0.120"。铆钉通路可具有例如约0.070"的直径“PD”,并且基部高度“BH”可为约0.310"。参见图37,中空闭合驱动轴10710'可具有约0.100"的内径“ID”和约0.129"的无螺纹外径“UTD”和约0.164"的螺纹外径“TD”:击发驱动轴10610'可具有例如约0.0668"的无螺纹直径“UTD'”和约0.0854"的螺纹外径“TD'”。也可采用其他直径、部件大小和尺寸。
图38和图39为采用另选的闭合连接件布置的端部执行器10900'的示意图。如在这些图中可见,远侧闭合连接件(或多个连接件)10970枢转地销接或以其他方式枢转地联接到砧座10920'和细长通道10910'。此外,近侧闭合连接件10972附接到砧座安装接片部分10922'并且经由对应的销10974可滑动地联接,该对应的销被接收在细长通道10910'中的对应轴向狭槽10911'中或在闭合梭动件或其他构件(未示出)中,该闭合梭动件或其他构件被构造成能够使近侧闭合连接件10972在对应于砧座10920'的打开位置的第一位置(图38)和对应于砧座10920'的闭合位置的第二位置(图39)之间运动。
图40和图41为采用另选的闭合连接件布置的端部执行器10900"的示意图。如在这些图中可见,砧座10920"的近侧端部部分10923"通过近侧安装连接件10980枢转地联接到细长通道10910"。近侧安装连接件10980(图中仅示出一个)枢转地附接到细长通道10910"以用于相对于其围绕下部枢转轴线LPA枢转行进。近侧安装连接件10980还枢转地联接到近侧端部部分10923"以相对于其围绕砧座枢转轴线APA枢转行进。端部执行器10900"还包括闭合连杆组件10982,该闭合连杆组件包括至少一个远侧连接件10984和一个近侧连接件10986。在其他布置中,闭合连杆组件10982包括一对远侧连接件10984(细长通道的每一侧上各有一个)和一对近侧连接件10986(细长通道的每一侧上各有一个)。远侧连接件10984附接到砧座10920"以用于围绕砧座枢转轴线APA枢转行进以及附接到对应的近侧连接件10986。近侧连接件的另一个端部枢转地附接到细长通道10910"。闭合连杆组件10982由一个或多个滑块销10988致动,该一个或多个滑块销被约束为在细长通道中或在闭合梭动件或其他构件(未示出)中轴向运动,该闭合梭动件或其他构件被构造成能够使销10988在对应于砧座10920"的打开位置的第一位置(图40)和对应于砧座10920"的闭合位置的第二位置(图41)之间运动。如图所示,闭合连杆组件10982可包括复合连接件组。此类布置可具有限制一个连杆相对于第二连杆的旋转的交互表面。这样,砧座10920"对于给定速率的角旋转的闭合可引起第一闭合速率和第二闭合速率,并且还建立用于闭合砧座的不同机械优点。例如,闭合致动器的闭合行程的初始部分可初始采用快速闭合速率,然后在闭合行程的其余部分期间可采用较慢的闭合速率,这可导致向砧座施加增大的闭合力。
图42和图43为采用另选的闭合连接件布置的端部执行器10900'"的示意图。如在这些图中可见,砧座10920'"的近侧端部部分10923'"通过近侧安装连接件10980枢转地联接到细长通道10910'"。近侧安装连接件10980(图中仅示出一个)枢转地附接到细长通道10910'"以用于相对于其围绕下部枢转轴线LPA枢转行进。近侧安装连接件10980还枢转地联接到近侧端部部分10923'"以相对于其围绕砧座枢转轴线APA枢转行进。端部执行器10900'"还包括闭合连杆组件10990,该闭合连杆组件包括至少一个远侧连接件10992和一个近侧连接件10994。在其他布置中,闭合连杆组件10990包括一对远侧连接件10992(细长通道的每一侧上各有一个)和一对近侧连接件10994(细长通道的每一侧上各有一个)。远侧连接件10992附接到砧座10920'"以用于围绕砧座枢转轴线APA枢转行进以及附接到对应的近侧连接件10994。近侧连接件的另一个端部枢转地附接到细长通道10910'"。闭合连杆组件10990由一个或多个滑块销10988致动,该一个或多个滑块销被约束为在细长通道中的对应狭槽中或在闭合梭动件或其他构件(未示出)中轴向运动,该闭合梭动件或其他构件被构造成能够使销10988在对应于砧座的打开位置的第一位置(图42)和对应于砧座的闭合位置的第二位置(图43)之间运动。滑块销10988联接到近侧连接件10994。在打开状态下,滑块销10988处于最远侧位置(图42)。为了闭合砧座10920'",滑块销10988在近侧方向上运动,这将近侧闭合连接件10994牵拉至图43所示的位置,其中远侧闭合连接件10992从中心弹出以将砧座10920'"保持在闭合状态。闭合期间的力矢量由处于压缩状态的近侧闭合连接件和远侧闭合连接件提供,从而抵抗在闭合期间由夹持在端部执行器中的组织产生的负载。
接下来转到图44至图52,示出了另一个外科端部执行器11000,该外科端部执行器包括枢转地支撑在细长通道11010上的砧座11100,该细长通道被构造成能够在其中可操作地支撑外科钉仓(未示出)。该布置还采用两个旋转致动轴-一个用于闭合(即,使砧座和细长通道在打开位置和闭合位置之间运动),一个用于在砧座和细长通道内击发(即,使击发构件轴向运动)。在例示的示例中,砧座11100包括细长砧座主体11110和砧座安装部分11140。在一种布置中,例如,砧座11100可使用名称为“METHOD FOR FABRICATING SURGICALSTAPLER ANVILS”的美国专利申请序列号16/105,101中描述的各种制造技术来制造,该专利申请的全部公开内容据此以引用方式并入本文。一对砧座耳轴11142从砧座安装部分11140侧向突起。每个砧座耳轴枢转地支撑在对应耳轴支架11016中,该对应耳轴支架形成于细长通道11010的近侧端部部分11012的对应直立壁11014中。参见图44。细长通道11010的近侧端部部分11012可以枢转地联接到本文所述类型的外科器械10010的细长轴组件10200,例如以便于端部执行器11000进行关节运动。在其他布置中,细长通道11010可能不能够进行关节运动。砧座耳轴11142可通过砧座保持器(未示出)保持在其相应耳轴支架11016内,该砧座保持器在构造和操作上可类似于上述通道顶盖或砧座保持器1290。
在例示的示例中,外科端部执行器11000包括各自独立控制并且能够轴向运动的砧座闭合构件11200和击发构件11300。图47示出了可采用的闭合构件11200的一种形式。如在图47中可见,闭合构件11200包括竖直延伸的闭合主体11202,该闭合主体具有从其侧向突起的两个底部通道接片10204。闭合主体11202的一部分被构造成能够延伸穿过细长通道11010的底部表面11018中的狭槽11019,并且通道接片11204侧向向外延伸以可滑动地接合通道11010的底部。类似地,一对砧座接合接片11206从闭合主体11202的顶部侧向突起以可滑动地接合砧座11100。闭合主体11202包括螺纹通孔11208,用于通过螺纹接合可旋转闭合驱动轴10710的螺纹部分10712,从而以本文所述的各种方式轴向驱动闭合构件11200。
如上所述,外科端部执行器11000还包括能够轴向运动的击发构件11300。图48示出了可采用的击发构件11300的一种形式。如在图48中可见,击发构件11300包括竖直延伸的击发构件主体11302,该击发构件主体具有组织切割表面11303以及从其侧向突起的两个底部通道接片11304。击发构件主体11302的一部分被构造成能够延伸穿过细长通道11010的底部表面11018中的狭槽11019,并且通道接片11304侧向向外延伸以可滑动地接合通道11010的底部。参见图45。类似地,一对砧座接合接片11306从击发构件主体11302的顶部侧向突起以可滑动地接合砧座11100。击发构件主体11302包括螺纹通孔11308,以用于通过螺纹接合可旋转击发驱动轴(诸如上述击发驱动轴10610)的螺纹部分。远侧击发轴10610穿过闭合主体11202中的无螺纹间隙孔11210。参见图47。击发驱动轴10610沿细长通道11010轴向向下延伸,并且通过轴承(未示出)或其他布置可旋转地支撑在其远侧端部部分中。类似地,闭合驱动轴10710可沿细长通道11010轴向向下延伸,并且通过轴承(未示出)或其他布置可旋转地支撑在其远侧端部部分中。因此,击发构件主体11302类似地具有穿过其中的无螺纹间隙孔11310以容纳闭合驱动轴10710。应当理解,在此类布置中,闭合驱动轴10710和击发驱动轴10610可以竖直堆叠布置支撑,使得它们可独立地旋转。
图46示出了砧座11100的一种形式,其中其部分以横截面示出。砧座安装部分11140包括中心交叉支架11144,该中心交叉支架用于限定开口11146,该开口用于在闭合构件11200处于其最近侧位置时在其中容纳闭合构件11200,该最近侧位置对应于砧座11100的打开位置。如在图46中可见,砧座主体11110限定细长狭槽11112,用于容纳穿过其中的击发构件主体11302和闭合主体11202。击发构件11300位于闭合构件11200的远侧。击发构件11302上的砧座接合接片11306被构造成能够可滑动地接合形成于狭槽11112的每一侧上的对应第一凸缘或下凸缘11114。如在图49和图50中可见,下凸缘11114在其近侧端部处略微向下渐缩,以在砧座枢转到其打开位置时容纳击发构件11300上的砧座接合接片11306。闭合构件11200上的砧座接合接片11206被构造成能够可滑动地接合形成于狭槽11112的每一侧上的对应第二凸缘或上凸缘11116。参见图46。为了打开砧座11100,旋转闭合驱动轴以通过螺纹将闭合构件11200朝近侧驱动到其最近侧位置(图49)。当闭合构件11200处于其最近侧位置时,其上的砧座接合接片11206向砧座11100施加枢转打开动作以将砧座枢转打开。击发构件11300处于其起始位置,使得击发构件11300的砧座接合接片11306不向砧座11100施加闭合动作。
为了闭合砧座11100,闭合驱动轴10710在相反方向上旋转,以将闭合构件11200朝远侧行进到闭合位置。击发驱动轴10610也可同时旋转以将击发构件11300朝远侧行进到起始位置。当闭合构件11200和击发构件11300处于那些位置时,砧座11100闭合并且击发构件11300准备好被击发。因此,假设未用尽的外科钉仓已首先被可操作地支撑在细长通道11010中并且端部执行器11000被操纵以将目标组织捕获在钉仓和砧座之间,则使用者可以上述方式将砧座11100闭合到组织上,以使端部执行器准备好被击发。在该闭合过程期间,击发驱动轴10610旋转以将击发构件11300朝远侧驱动到所夹持的组织中以切割组织并使储存在钉仓中的钉在切口的两侧上形成到所切割的组织中。在该过程期间,闭合构件11200也可朝远侧驱动以向砧座11100和细长通道11010施加附加的闭合动作。根据例如击发构件11300所经历的阻力的量,闭合构件11200可与击发构件11300一起行进、停止并随后再次行进。闭合构件11200可以与击发构件的远侧行进速率不同的速率朝远侧行进。可控制闭合构件11200和击发构件11300之间的距离DC以平衡在击发过程期间经历的负载。参见图52。例如,如果使用者想要减小击发构件11300所经历的竖直负载的量,则闭合构件11200可在行进期间运动得更靠近击发构件11300。可通过增加击发构件11300与闭合构件11200之间的距离来增加击发构件11300所经历的竖直负载。
返回图47和图48,闭合构件11200上的砧座接合接片11206的厚度t1大于击发构件11300上的砧座接合接片11306的厚度t2。在一种布置中,闭合构件11200上的砧座接合接片11206的长度L1略小于击发构件11300上的砧座接合接片11306的长度L2。同样,闭合构件11200上的通道接片11204的厚度t3大于击发构件11300上的通道接片11304的厚度t4。在一种布置中,闭合构件11200上的通道接片11204的长度L1短于击发构件11300上的通道接片11304的长度L3。在这两种情况下,螺纹孔11208、11308的直径d1可大于无螺纹通孔11210、11310的直径d2。此外,砧座接合接片11206、11306与其对应的砧座凸缘之间的相对冲角以及通道接片11204、11304与其对应的通道凸缘之间的相对冲角可改变,可相同或不同。在一种布置中,击发构件11300上的砧座接合接片11306相对于其对应的砧座凸缘以略高于闭合构件11200上的砧座接合接片11206的攻角的攻角布置。在一种布置中,通道接片11204和11304骑在形成于细长通道11010的底部中的相同凸缘上。参见图45。闭合构件11200和击发构件11300具有单独的作用路径,这可允许闭合构件被设计成容纳来自砧座枢轴的更大力矩臂以实现更好的击发效率。
当使用前述构型时可经历的一个优点是闭合构件11200可运动远离击发构件11300以在闭合期间获得显著量的机械优点。闭合构件11200不需要行进击发行程的完整长度。例如,如果闭合构件11200将沿端部执行器向下行进约一半,则砧座11100的相对刚度将减少击发构件11300所遇到的负载的量。采用用于检测击发系统部件和闭合系统部件所经历的负载的量的传感器(例如,应变仪等)的控制系统以及算法可用于平衡两个系统所遇到的负载。例如,可基于击发构件部件11300的几何形状和组成在控制器中设定该击发构件所经历的竖直负载的最大阈值。当负载接近该阈值时,算法可自动行进闭合构件11200,使得其吸收更多的负载并减少击发构件11300所经历的负载量。在各个方面,当击发构件11300朝远侧被驱动穿过外科钉仓时,通过砧座接合接片11306与砧座11100的接合以及通道接合接片11304与通道11010的接合,击发构件11300可用于在钉仓上的平台表面与砧座11100上的钉成形下表面之间保持所需量的组织间隙。其他闭合控制方法也可与打开和闭合外科端部执行器11000结合使用,诸如名称为“METHOD FOR OPERATING A POWERED ARTICULATABLESURGICAL INSTRUMENT”的美国专利申请序列号16/105,081中所公开的那些,该专利申请的全部公开内容据此以引用方式并入本文。
