Description
技术领域
本公开涉及手术施夹器。更确切地说，本公开涉及具有可再用的手柄组合件、可再用的轴组合件和可弃式夹筒组合件的内窥镜可搁置手术施夹器。
背景技术
内窥镜缝合器和施夹器在所属领域中是已知的并用于数个不同且适用的手术程序。在腹腔镜外科手术程序的状况下，通过狭窄导管或通过皮肤中的较小进入切口插入的插管实现到腹部内的接入。在身体中的其它地方执行微创手术常常大体上被称作内窥镜手术。通常导管或插管装置通过用于提供接入端口的进入切口延伸到患者的身体中。端口允许外科医生使用套管针通过其插入多种不同的手术器械，并且允许远离切口执行手术程序。
在大多数这些手术期间，外科医生必须常常终止血液的流动或者通过一个或多个脉管的另一流体。外科医生将常常在手术期间将手术夹具施用到血脉管或另一管道以防止体液流动通过。内窥镜施夹器在所属领域中已知用于在进入体腔期间施用单个夹具。此类夹具通常由生物兼容性材料制造，并且通常压缩在脉管上。一旦施用到脉管，压缩的夹具就终止从中通过的流体的流动。
能够在内窥镜或腹腔镜手术中在单次进入体腔期间施用多种夹具的内窥镜施夹器描述于共同转让给Green等人的美国专利第5,084,057号和第5,100,420号中，所述美国专利以全文引用的方式并入本文。另一多种内窥镜施夹器公开于Pratt等人的共同转让的美国专利第5,607,436号中，所述专利的内容也在此以全文引用的方式并入本文。这些装置典型地(但不一定)在单次手术程序期间使用。Pier等人的美国专利第5,695,502号公开了可再消毒的内窥镜外科手术施夹器，所述专利的公开内容在此以引用的方式并入本文。施夹器在单次插入到体腔中期间推进并形成多种夹具。这个可再消毒的施夹器被配置成收纳可互换弹夹并与可互换弹夹配合以便在单次进入体腔期间推进并形成多种夹具。
在内窥镜或腹腔镜手术期间，取决于待结扎的基础组织或脉管，可能需要和/或必需使用不同大小的手术夹具。为了减少手术施夹器的总成本，单个手术施夹器需要视需要可装载不同大小的手术夹具且能够发动不同大小的手术夹具。
因此，需要包含可再用的手柄组合件、可再用的轴组合件和可弃式夹筒组合件的内窥镜手术施夹器，其中每一夹筒组合件装载有经特别大小设定的夹具(例如，相对较小、相对中等或相对较大)。

内部套环206进一步包含形成在其一侧中的纵向延伸的狭槽或窗口206a。提供锁块210以用于选择性地插入到内部套环206的纵向狭槽或窗口206a中。在使用中，当将锁块210插入内部套环206的狭槽或窗口206a时，锁块210抵靠主驱动杆122的平坦表面122e安放或接触主驱动杆122的平坦表面122e(参见图6、23和24)，借此使得能够在第一方向上旋转，且当将主驱动杆122安置在外部导管组合件200的外部导管202内时，抑制或防止主驱动杆122在第二相反的方向上旋转。
手柄组合件110以及外部导管组合件200可由例如高级别外科手术不锈钢的生物兼容性材料、钛或高强度耐高压加热聚合物、热塑性材料等等制成。
参看图18，描述手柄组合件110、主驱动组合件120和外部导管组合件200的组合件。通过以下操作，外部导管组合件200的外部套环或旋钮204连接到手柄组合件110的圆筒118的前端118b：将外部套环或旋钮204的J形凹口204a的开口端与手柄组合件110的圆筒118的凸起118c对准，接近外部导管组合件200和手柄组合件110直到凸起118c充分地收纳于J形凹口204a中为止，且接着相对于手柄组合件110旋转外部导管组合件200以围绕J形凹口204a径向地推进凸起118c，例如，以卡口型连接的方式。
在外部导管组合件200连接到手柄组合件110且端盖119从圆筒118移除的情况下，触发器114围绕枢转轴116移动或枢转直到触发器114的致动端114a不阻塞圆筒118的镗孔118a为止。在触发器114如此定位的情况下，主驱动杆122的远端122b(图2)经由圆筒118的开口近端插入到圆筒118的镗孔118a中。主驱动组合件120推进通过圆筒118的镗孔118a并通过外部导管组合件200直到主驱动组合件120的凸缘122c定位在圆筒118的镗孔118a内为止。在主驱动组合件120的凸缘122c定位在圆筒118的镗孔118a内的情况下，触发器114围绕枢转轴116移动或枢转直到触发器114的致动端114a再一次安置在圆筒118的镗孔118a中且安置为邻近于主驱动组合件120的凸缘122c并与主驱动组合件120的凸缘122c接触为止。端盖119接着可以在细长延伸部122d上方推进，使得细长延伸部122d嵌套在镗孔119a内。在细长延伸部122d嵌套在镗孔119a内的情况下，端盖119进一步在其上方推进并再连接到圆筒118以将主驱动组合件120和触发器114的致动端114a紧固到手柄组合件110的圆筒118。如将在下文进一步详细论述，端盖119可以推进到圆筒118的镗孔118a中并推出圆筒118的镗孔118a以有助于夹筒组合件300的附接和移除。以此方式，在端盖119在圆筒118的镗孔118a内推进或退出时，细长延伸部122d保持与镗孔119a可滑动地啮合并维持主驱动组合件120与外部导管组合件200对准。
现在转而参看图1、2和7到17，展示手术施夹器100的夹筒组合件300。夹筒组合件300被配置成选择性地可装载或可连接到外部导管组合件200的远端，且在手柄组合件110的触发器114的致动后就被致动以将装载在其中的手术夹具“C”发动并形成到基础组织和/或脉管上。每一夹筒组合件300可以装载有一组经特别大小设定的手术夹具(例如，相对较小的手术夹具、相对中等的手术夹具或相对较大的手术夹具)。
夹筒组合件300包含夹具盘302，夹具盘302包含底壁302a和一对支撑在底壁302a上间隔开的下侧壁或轨条302b1。底壁302a和下部轨条302b1限定夹具通道302c1(图11)。夹具通道302c1被配置和大小经过设置成可滑动地支撑其中的多个手术夹具“C”。夹具盘302进一步包含至少一对支撑在下侧壁302b1上间隔开的上侧壁或轨条302b2。下部轨条302b1和上部轨条302b2限定推杆通道302c2(图11)。推杆通道302c2被配置和大小经过设置成可滑动地支撑其中的筒夹推杆304。
夹具盘302包含线性阵列的向远侧延伸的弹性、可偏转指形件302d(图13、15和17)，指形件302d从底壁302a向上突出并进入侧轨条302b之间的部位处的下部夹具通道302c1中。最远侧的可偏转指形件302d1形成单个矩形指形件，单个矩形指形件被配置成啮合最远侧夹具“C1”的后跨部或冠部且嵌套在筒夹推杆304的间隔开的叉状件304d1、304d2(图13)之间，如下文所论述。一对通道302f(图17)安置或形成在最远侧指形件302d1的任一侧上且被配置成当所有手术夹具“C”已经形成时，选择性地收纳、啮合夹具推杆304的间隔开的叉状件304d1、304d2中的每一个，如将在下文进一步详细论述。剩余的近侧可偏转指形件302d中的每一个限定适用于啮合手术夹具“C”的堆叠中的每一剩余夹具的后跨部的相对的近侧的V形配置，如图12、13、16和17中所说明。
如图11和17中所展示，夹具盘302进一步包含一对间隔开、向远侧延伸的弹性可偏转叉状件302e，叉状件302e从底壁302a的近端向上突出并进入侧轨条3021之间的部位处的下部夹具通道302c1中。叉状件302e中的每一个间隔开，使得其与最远侧夹具“C1”的相应支脚的表面可滑动地啮合。叉状件302e的尺寸被设置成啮合最远侧夹具“C1”的支脚并抵靠每一侧轨条302b1摩擦地按压最远侧夹具“C1”，使得当最远侧夹具“C1”被装载到一对夹钳320中时，叉状件302e帮助防止最远侧夹具“C1”(靠近最远侧夹具“C1”)向远侧推进超过叉状件302e。当最远侧夹具“C1”通过筒夹推杆304向远侧推动时，克服由叉状件302e提供的偏压力，且一旦最远侧夹具“C1”已被装载到所述一对夹钳320中，叉状件302e中的每一个就返回到其初始位置以防止下一夹具“C”进一步推进。
如图8到15中所展示，夹筒组合件300包含筒夹推杆304，所述筒夹推杆304可滑动地安置在夹具盘302的一对间隔开的上侧壁或轨条302b2(图11)之间并安置在所述上侧壁或轨条302b2内。筒夹推杆304包含可与筒推杆或轴306的远端啮合或通过筒推杆或轴306的远端可啮合的近端304a，如下文将更详细地描述。筒夹推杆304进一步包含限定推动器304d的远端部分304b，推动器304d被配置成啮合手术夹具“C”的堆叠的最远侧夹具“C1”，以用于将最远侧夹具“C1”装载到夹筒组合件300的一对夹钳320中。推动器304d包含如上文所描述的一对间隔开的叉状件304d1、304d2，叉状件304d1、304d2被配置成啮合最远侧夹具“C1”的后跨部，如图11和15中所说明。
如图8、14和15中所说明，筒夹推杆304进一步包含线性阵列的向远侧延伸的弹性可偏转指形件304e，其中每一指形件304e限定矩形剖面，矩形剖面包含形成在其远端处的远侧凸肩。在使用中，当筒夹推杆304叠对或安置在夹具盘302的一对间隔开的上部轨条302b2之间时，夹具盘302的可偏转指形件302d中的每一个轴向地安置在筒夹推杆304的每一可偏转指形件304e之间，使得当夹具推杆304相对于夹具盘302位于近侧位置中时，可偏转指形件302d、304e中的每一个以串列配置形式布置。另外，当筒夹推杆304叠对或安置在夹具盘302的一对间隔开的上部轨条302b2之间时，筒夹推杆304的每一可偏转指形件304e跨越夹具盘302的夹具通道302c1延伸，使得可偏转指形件304e的远侧凸肩与手术夹具“C”的堆叠配准。
在使用中，夹具盘302的近侧可偏转指形件302d的V形配置准许筒夹推杆304的每一近侧可偏转指形件304e嵌套在近侧可偏转指形件302d的V形内，使得当筒夹推杆304向远侧驱动时，可偏转指形件304e的远侧凸肩啮合手术夹具“C”的堆叠中的剩余手术夹具中的每一个的后跨部。
如图8和12到17中所展示，夹筒组合件300进一步包含插入在夹具盘302与筒夹推杆304之间的手术夹具“C”的堆叠。手术夹具“C”的堆叠支撑在夹具盘302上或装载到夹具盘302中，使得每一手术夹具“C”的冠部或后跨部安置在夹具盘302的相应可偏转指形件302d远侧。此外，当筒夹推杆304相对于夹具盘302位于近侧位置中时，筒夹推杆304的每一可偏转指形件304e还安置在手术夹具“C”的堆叠的相应夹具的冠部或后跨部近侧，如上文所论述。
夹筒组合件300可以装载有10个手术夹具“C”，或在实施例中，夹筒组合件300可以装载有任何数目个手术夹具C”。手术夹具“C”可由所属领域的技术人员已知的材料制造，包含但不限于不锈钢、钛或其它金属合金。在一实施例中，预期手术夹具“C”的堆叠中的至少最末手术夹具可以染成特定颜色以向用户指示何时将夹筒组合件300的最末手术夹具装载到一对夹钳320中。
一旦所有手术夹具“C”装载到夹具盘302中且筒夹推杆304邻近于其放置，被配置和被调适用于在夹具盘302上连接和支撑的通道盖罩307(图8)就可以搭扣成与夹具盘302的下部轨条302b1啮合。
参看图8到10、14和16，夹筒组合件300包含可滑动地支撑在夹具盘302内的筒推杆或轴306。筒推杆306包含连接到筒夹推杆304的近端304a的远端和固定地连接到驱动滑板308的近端，驱动滑板308可滑动地支撑在夹具盘302内。
夹筒组合件300包含围绕筒推杆306安置并插入在远侧止动块312a与驱动滑板308之间的偏压部件310。在夹具盘302的近端附近提供近侧止动块312b以限制驱动滑板308的移动。筒推杆306的远端向远侧延伸超过远侧止动块312a以用于与筒夹推杆304的近端啮合。
在操作中，如下文将更详细地描述，当手柄组合件110的触发器114致动时，触发器114实现主驱动组合件120的主驱动杆122和摇臂126的致动以在轴向远侧方向上移动摇臂126。当主驱动组合件120在远侧方向上移动时，摇臂126的远端126b啮合、邻接于或作用于驱动滑板308以在远侧方向上移动驱动滑板308。当驱动滑板308在远侧方向上移动时，驱动滑板308作用于筒夹推杆304以向远侧推进筒夹推杆304，并将偏压部件310的压缩实现为偏压状况。
继续参看图8到10、14和16，夹筒组合件300包含邻近于夹具盘302固定地支撑在夹筒组合件300的外部导管314的管腔314a内的夹钳刀片320。夹钳刀片320包含从外部导管314突出或从外部导管314内向远侧延伸的一对夹钳320a，和近侧地延伸到外部导管314的管腔314a中的近侧杆柄320b。夹钳刀片320是由例如不锈钢的弹性材料制造，且经形成使得其一对夹钳320a彼此间隔开或彼此偏压开。
每一夹钳320a包含从其突出的凸轮齿或楔形件320c，且凸轮齿或楔形件320c被配置成当主驱动组合件120的主驱动杆122向远侧推进时，通过提供在第二夹钳推动器132的远端132b处的V形凸轮槽132e啮合(图28A和34)。在操作中，当主驱动杆122向远侧推进时，主驱动杆122将第一夹钳推动器130向远侧推动直到第一夹钳推动器130的远端130b接触第二夹钳推动器132的近侧表面132d为止。以此方式，第一夹钳推动器130和第二夹钳推动器132首先安置成彼此隔开，使得第一夹钳推动器130与第二夹钳推动器132之间存在间隙。此后，第一夹钳推动器130和第二夹钳推动器132向远侧推进，使得第二夹钳推动器132的V形凸轮槽132e啮合一对夹钳320a的凸轮齿320c，借此引起一对夹钳320a的封闭或接近。以此方式，第一夹钳推动器130可以向远侧推进而不致使一对夹钳320a接近。
当夹钳刀片320在非接近状况中时，夹钳刀片320限定一对夹钳320a之间的通道以用于在其中收纳手术夹具“C”。
如上文简要地提及且如图7和8中所展示，夹筒组合件300包含限定从中通过的管腔314a的外部导管314。外部导管314被配置和大小经过设置成操作性地容纳夹具盘302、夹筒推动器304、盖罩307、夹具推杆306、驱动滑板308、偏压部件310、夹钳刀片320和在其内的手术夹具“C”的堆叠。外部导管314的近端314b限定形成于其中的向远侧延伸的槽或通道314c。
一般来说，在操作中，当手柄组合件110的主驱动杆122向远侧推进时，由于触发器114的致动，主驱动杆122使摇臂126推进以作用于筒组合件300的驱动滑板308，从而在远侧方向上移动驱动滑板308。当驱动滑板308在远侧方向上移动时，驱动滑板308作用于筒推杆306，且继而，筒夹推杆304使筒夹推杆304向远侧推进一定的量或距离“X”(例如，约12mm)，并将偏压部件310的压缩实现为偏压状况。
当夹筒组合件300的筒夹推杆304在远侧方向上移动时，筒夹推杆304的推动器304d的间隔开的叉状件304d1、304d2啮合最远侧夹具“C1”的后跨部并将最远侧夹具“C1”向远侧推动所述量或距离“X”，从而推出夹筒组合件300并进入一对夹钳320a。
如上文所提及，最远侧夹具“C1”的远侧移动压缩夹具盘302的间隔开的叉状件302e中的每一个，借此准许将最远侧夹具“C1”装载在一对夹钳320a内，如上文所描述。一旦将最远侧夹具“C1”装载到一对夹钳320a中，叉状件302e就返回到其初始位置并防止靠近最远侧夹具“C1”的夹具“C”进一步向远侧推进。
另外且与最远侧夹具“C1”的远侧移动同时进行，当夹筒组合件300的筒夹推杆304在远侧方向上移动时，筒夹推杆304的每一指形件304e的远侧凸肩邻靠着剩余手术夹具“C”中的相应手术夹具的相应后跨部，从而也使剩余手术夹具“C”在远侧方向上推动所述量或距离“X”。在如此操作时，夹具盘302的指形件302d偏转，从而准许剩余手术夹具“C”中的每一个向远侧推进以替换手术夹具“C”的堆叠中的每一相应的手术夹具。一旦完成筒夹推杆304的远侧推进，就也完成手术夹具“C”的堆叠的远侧推进。一旦手术夹具“C”的剩余堆叠中的夹具已向远侧推进超出夹具盘302的相应指形件302d，夹具盘302的指形件302d就回弹或返回到其原始位置，借此防止每一手术夹具“C”此后在近侧方向上发生任何移动。
筒夹推杆304使剩余的手术夹具“C”向远侧推进，直到每一剩余的手术夹具“C”向远侧推进所述量或距离“X”，超过夹具盘302的下一个邻近弹性、可偏转指形件302d为止。
在筒夹推杆304移动所述量或距离“X”之后，为了将最远侧夹具“C1”装载到一对夹钳320a中，释放或反转特征220(例如，提供在外部导管组合件200的外部导管202中的凸起或销)通过摇臂126的凸轮斜面126c(图26)啮合或接触，因此使摇臂126的活塞126b与驱动滑板308脱啮，从而实现夹筒推杆304从远侧方向到近侧方向的行进方向的反转。摇臂126通过外部导管202的反转特征220的致动产生作用于待移除的筒夹推杆304的向远侧引导的力，且因此，偏压部件310任意再扩展。当偏压部件310任意再扩展时，偏压部件310近侧地推动或移动驱动滑板308，以借此近侧地退出筒夹推杆304。
当筒夹推杆304在近侧方向上移动时，其指形件304e的近侧表面邻靠着剩余的手术夹具“C”的后跨部的远侧表面，从而也在近侧方向上推动剩余的手术夹具“C”。筒夹推杆304的指形件304e使剩余的手术夹具“C”近侧地回缩，直到每一剩余的手术夹具“C”回缩小于“X”的量或距离(例如，“X-Y”)以与夹具盘302的相应的弹性、可偏转指形件302d的相应远端接触为止，此阻挡或阻止剩余的手术夹具“C”的进一步近侧回缩，而筒夹推杆304继续近侧地移动到其最近侧位置，例如量或距离“X”。
当筒夹推杆304继续近侧地牵引时，同时，筒夹推杆304的推动器304d和指形件304e的间隔开的叉状件304d1、304d2向上且在剩余的手术夹具“C”中的每一个上方偏转，直到筒夹推杆304返回到最近侧位置为止。
当夹筒组合件300装载有至少一个夹具“C”时，且当筒夹推杆304位于最近侧位置中时，安置在筒夹推杆304的最远侧端部上的前端304g(图28)朝向最远侧手术夹具“C1”的后跨部的上部表面偏压并由所述上部表面支撑，从而防止推动器304d的间隔开的叉状件304d1、304d2中的每一个啮合或进入夹具盘302的一对通道302f。
现在转而参看图19、20和37到39，在外部导管组合件200连接到手柄组合件110且主驱动组合件120装载到手柄组合件和外部导管组合件200中的情况下，如上文所描述，夹筒组合件300可以选择性地连接到主驱动组合件120的远端和外部导管组合件200的远端。
一般来说，参看图37到39，在夹筒组合件300充分组装的情况下，主驱动组合件120的远端插入到夹筒组合件300的外部导管314的近端314b中，且夹筒组合件300朝向手柄组合件110接近，直到提供在外部导管组合件200的外部导管202的近端202a上的对准肋条202c与夹筒组合件300的外部导管314的通道314c(参见图29)对准并进入所述通道314c为止。此时，第一夹钳推动器130位于最近侧位置中，使得从第一夹钳推动器130的近端130a的外部侧横向地延伸的一对突片134延伸到限定在夹筒组合件300的外部导管314内的相应窗口316(参见图39)316中以此方式，第一夹钳推动器130的近端130a可以扩展到能够在限定在第一夹钳推动器130内的凹穴136内接受主驱动杆122的球形突片122f的间隔开的状况。此后，夹筒组合件300可以摩擦地保留在外部导管组合件200上或通过搭扣配合连接件或所属领域的技术人员已知的某一其它连接配置(例如通过卡掣、边缘或翼形件)紧固到外部导管组合件200。在一个示范性实施例中，突片202d从外部导管组合件200的外部导管202的外部侧突出并延伸到形成在夹筒组合件300的外部导管314中的相应窗口314d中，使得夹筒组合件300可拆卸地紧固到外部导管组合件200和手柄组合件110。
此时，带螺纹端盖119在圆筒118的镗孔118a内推进，使得主驱动杆122的细长延伸部122d邻接于镗孔119a的内部表面，使得主驱动杆122向远侧推动(图38)。以此方式，当主驱动杆122向远侧推动时，第一夹钳推动器130同样向远侧推动，使得一对突片134从外部导管314的窗口316移开(图39)。由于一对突片134从窗口316移开，所以一对相应突片中的每一个在外部导管314的内部表面(未展示)中接触，借此使得第一夹钳推动器130的近端130a压缩到接近位置并将球形突片122f捕获在其中。以此方式，主驱动杆122和第一夹钳推动器130都一致地起作用，使得当主驱动杆推进或回缩时，第一夹钳推动器130同样推进或回缩。为了将夹筒组合件300从外部导管组合件200移除，可以按相反方式进行上文所提到的程序，如图40到42中所说明。
继续参看图1到20B和37到42，且额外特别参看图21到36，展示并描述施夹器100的示范性操作模式。如图27到29中所展示，说明施夹器100具有连接到外部导管组合件200的远端和主驱动组合件120的远端的夹筒组合件300(如上文所描述)。
参看图30，当触发器114被挤压或围绕枢转轴116沿顺时针方向枢转时，触发器114的致动端114a啮合手柄组合件110的主驱动杆122的近端，借此向远侧推动主驱动杆122抵抗复位压缩弹簧124的偏压力。当触发器114被挤压时，触发器114的致动端114a还压缩复位压缩弹簧124。当手柄组合件110的主驱动杆122向远侧推进时，由于触发器114的致动，主驱动杆122使摇臂126推进以作用于筒组合件300的驱动滑板308，以在远侧方向上移动驱动滑板308并在远侧方向上移动筒夹推杆304，如上文所描述。
当筒夹推杆304在远侧方向上移动时，其推动器304d啮合最远侧夹具“C1”的后跨部且将最远侧夹具“C1”向远侧推出夹筒组合件300并进入一对夹钳320a。
另外且与最远侧夹具“C1”的远侧移动同时进行，当夹筒组合件300的筒夹推杆304在远侧方向上移动时，剩余的手术夹具“C”、主驱动杆122和第一夹钳推动器130也在远侧方向上移动。在将最远侧夹具“C1”装载到一对夹钳320a中之后，如图32和33中所展示，摇臂126的凸轮斜面126c邻接于或啮合外部导管组合件200的释放或反转特征220，以使摇臂126围绕枢轴销127枢转，借此使摇臂126的活塞126b与驱动滑板308脱啮，从而实现夹筒推杆304从远侧方向到近侧方向的行进方向的反转。
当筒夹推杆304在近侧方向上移动时，筒夹推杆304作用于剩余的手术夹具“C”的后跨部，从而也在近侧方向上推动剩余的手术夹具“C”。确切地说，筒夹推杆304的指形件304e使剩余的手术夹具“C”近侧地回缩直到每一剩余的手术夹具“C”回缩以与夹具盘302的相应的弹性、可偏转指形件302d的相应远端接触为止，此阻挡或阻止剩余的手术夹具“C”的进一步近侧回缩，而筒夹推杆304继续近侧地移动到其最近侧位置。
在筒夹推杆304返回到其最近侧位置的情况下，触发器114的持续挤压继续使主驱动杆122以及第一夹钳推动器130在远侧方向上推进。当触发器114进一步挤压时，第一夹钳推动器130邻接于第二夹钳推动器132并在远侧方向上推动第二夹钳推动器132。触发器114进一步挤压使得主驱动杆122、第一夹钳推动器130和第二夹钳推动器到达其最远侧位置(例如，总远侧推进为约17mm)，直到第二夹钳推动器132的V形凸轮槽132e啮合一对夹钳320a的凸轮齿320c以封闭所述一对夹钳320a并形成装载有其的最远侧夹具“C1”为止。
在形成最远侧夹具“C1”之后，触发器114可以释放，由此准许复位压缩弹簧124再扩展以作用于凸缘122c并在近侧方向上移动主驱动杆122以及第一夹钳推动器130和第二夹钳推动器132，直到主驱动杆122、第一夹钳推动器130和第二夹钳推动器132中的每一个返回到其最近侧位置为止。以此方式，参看图34和35，当第一夹钳推动器130返回到近侧位置时，安置在第二推杆132的远端130b上的倒钩130c啮合安置在第二推杆132的近端132a上的对应倒钩132c。倒钩132c以一种方式安置在第二夹钳推动器132上使得倒钩132c与近侧表面132d之间存在间隙，借此允许第一夹钳推动器130在近侧和远侧方向上行进而不影响第二夹钳推动器132的移动。
当主驱动杆122返回到其最近侧位置时，摇臂126的凸轮斜面126c使外部导管组合件200的释放或反转特征220近侧地移动，由此作用于摇臂126的近端126a的偏压部件钢板弹簧128使摇臂126枢转，使得摇臂的活塞126b返回到与夹筒组合件300的驱动滑板308轴向配准。
另外，当主驱动杆122，且因此第一夹钳推动器130和第二夹钳推动器132返回到其最近侧位置时，第二夹钳推动器132的V形凸轮槽132e从一对夹钳320a的凸轮齿320c退出并啮合所述凸轮齿320c，借此允许一对夹钳320a由于其自身的弹性偏压而打开。
可以根据需要重复上述操作，直到所有手术夹具“C”已经形成为止。
手术施夹器100可具有锁定机构，其中一旦所有手术夹具“C”已经发动，手术施夹器100就无法致动。仅作为实例，此类锁定机构可以包含推动器304d的间隔开的叉状件304d1、304d2，一旦夹具“C”的堆叠中的最末夹具形成且筒夹推杆304回缩到最近侧位置，叉状件304d1、304d2就进入到夹具盘302的一对通道302f(图28A)中并啮合所述通道302f。一旦推动器304d的间隔开的叉状件304d1、304d2与夹具盘302的一对通道302f啮合或安置在所述通道302f内，例如，在触发器114的致动后，如上文所描述，就禁止筒夹推杆304的任何远侧移动。
在使用中，如上文所提及，手术施夹器100能够将不同的手术夹筒组合件300装载在外部导管组合件200上。确切地说，施夹器100可以装载有手术夹筒组合件300，手术夹筒组合件300装载有具有第一尺寸的手术夹具“C”的堆叠，或手术夹筒组合件300装载有具有不同于第一尺寸的第二尺寸的手术夹具“C”的堆叠。
以此方式，取决于待执行的特定手术程序，用户或外科医生可以负荷装载有特定大小的手术夹具的手术夹筒组合件300。另外，在手术程序期间，如果需要使用经不同大小设定的手术夹具，那么用户或外科医生可以弹出或卸荷装载到外部导管组合件200上的手术夹筒组合件300，且接着将新手术夹筒组合件300(与卸载的手术夹筒组合件300相比较，具有装载在其中的经不同大小设定的手术夹具的堆叠)装载到外部导管组合件200上。
另外，根据本公开，可以在恰当清洁、消毒、高压处理等等之后再使用手柄组合件110和外部导管组合件200，且在其完整和/或部分使用之后安置夹筒组合件300。
同样根据本公开，进一步预期可以提供包含一手术施夹器100和多个夹筒组合件300的手术成套工具，多个夹筒组合件300包含装载有具有第一尺寸的手术夹具的堆叠的至少第一组夹筒组合件和装载有具有不同于第一尺寸的第二尺寸的手术夹具的堆叠的第二组夹筒组合件。成套工具可以包含针对以下的指令：组合件或手术施夹器100、对手术施夹器100的使用和在使用之后处理手术施夹器组合件100，手术施夹器100包含单个手柄组合件110、单个外部导管组合件200、单个夹筒组合件300和被配置成保留其的封装体、容器或盒子。
例如本文中所描述的施夹器的手术器械还可以被配置成对机器人手术系统起作用，且机器人手术系统通常被称为“遥控手术”。此类系统使用各种机器人元件来辅助外科医生，且允许手术器械的远程操作(或部分远程操作)。出于此目的可使用各种机器人臂、齿轮、凸轮、滑轮、电马达以及机械马达等等，并且可将其设计成具有机器人手术系统以在手术或治疗的过程期间辅助外科医生。此类机器人系统可包含远程可导向系统、自动柔性手术系统、远程柔性手术系统、远程铰接手术系统、无线手术系统、模块化或可选择性配置远程操作手术系统等等。
机器人手术系统可与紧接于手术室或位于远程位置中的一个或多个控制台一起使用。在此情况下，一个团体的外科医生或护士可使患者对手术作好准备，并用一个或多个本文公开的器械配置机器人手术系统，而另一外科医生(或一组外科医生)经由机器人手术系统远程控制器械。如可理解，高度熟练的外科医生可在多个位置执行多个操作而不离开他/她的远程控制台，这在经济上可有利且对于患者或一系列患者也是有益的。
手术系统的机器人臂通常通过控制器耦接到一对主控手柄。手柄可通过外科医生移动以产生任何类型手术器械(例如，末端执行器、抓钳、小刀、剪刀等等)的工作端的对应移动，这可对本文中所描述的一或多个实施例的使用进行补充。可按比例缩放主控手柄的移动，使得工作端的对应移动不同于(小于或大于)通过外科医生的操作手执行的移动。可调整比例因子或齿轮比率(gearingratio)，从而使得操作员可控制手术器械的工作端的分辨率。
主控手柄可以包含各种传感器，传感器用以将与各种组织参数或状况(例如，归因于操纵的组织抗性、切割或以其它方式治疗、通过器械压在组织上、组织温度、组织阻抗等等)相关的反馈提供给外科医生。如可理解，此类传感器向外科医生提供模拟实际操作状况的增强的触觉反馈。主控手柄还可包含多种不同致动器，其用于精细组织操纵或治疗，从而进一步增强外科医生模仿实际操作状况的能力。
参看图43，医疗工作站通常展示为工作站1000，且其通常可包含多个机器人臂1002、1003；控制装置1004；以及与控制装置1004耦接的操作控制台1005。操作控制台1005可包含可被特定设定成显示三维图像的显示装置1006；和手动输入装置1007、1008，例如外科医生的人员(未展示)借助于所述手动输入装置可能够以第一操作模式远距离操控机器人臂1002、1003。
根据本文中所公开的若干实施例中的任一个，机器人臂1002、1003中的每一个可以包含通过接合件连接的多个部件和例如支撑末端执行器1100的手术工具“ST”可以附接到的附接装置1009、1011，如下文将更详细地描述。
机器人臂1002、1003可由连接到控制装置1004的电动驱动器(未展示)驱动。控制装置1004(例如，计算机)可以设定成特别借助于计算机程序激活驱动器，以此方式使得机器人臂1002、1003，其附接装置1009、1011和因此手术工具(包含末端执行器1100)根据借助于手动输入装置1007、1008限定的移动执行所要移动。还可以使其调节机器人臂1002、1003的移动和/或驱动器的移动的方式来设定控制装置1004。
医疗工作站1000可被配置成用于在位于患者检查台1012上的患者1013上使用，所述患者待借助于末端执行器1100以微创方式治疗。医疗工作站1000也可包含多于两个机械臂1002、1003，额外的机器人臂类似地连接到控制装置1004且可借助于操作控制台1005远距离操控。医疗器械或手术工具(包括末端执行器1100)也可附接到额外机器人臂上。医疗工作站1000可包含数据库1014，具体地说所述数据库连接为与控制装置1004结合，在所述控制装置中存储例如来自患者/活体1013和/或身体结构数据集的手术前数据。
在本文中参考2011年11月3日提交的名为“医疗工作站(Medical Workstation)”的美国专利公开案第2012/0116416号，所述美国专利公开案的全部内容以引用的方式并入本文中，以用于更详细地论述示范性机器人手术系统的建构和操作。
预期在本公开的范围内，包含具有独特且多样关闭冲程长度的一对夹钳的其它内窥镜组合件可具有与本文中所描述的驱动组合件中的任一个相似的驱动组合件，以用于将其一对夹钳的关闭冲程长度调整和调适成恒定的触发器冲程长度。
因此，可以提供根据本公开的原理的建构各种内窥镜组合件并且其也能够在用于多个不同制造商的多个平台上发动或形成或关闭具有各种尺寸、材料及配置的手术夹具。
应理解，前述描述仅说明本公开。所属领域的技术人员可在不脱离本公开的情况下设计各种替代形式和修改形式。因此，本公开旨在涵盖所有此类替代、修改和变化。呈现参考附图所描述的实施例仅为了展现本公开的某些实例。与上文所描述和/或所附权利要求书中的元件、步骤、方法和技术无实质不同的其它元件、步骤、方法和技术也旨在在本公开的范围内。
