摘要:
abstract a surgical instrument is disclosed. the surgical instrument may be operated compensating for the effect of splay in flexible knife bands on transection length of a powered surgical instrument. the surgical instrument includes a processor and a memory. a relationship between joint angle of an end effector and effective transection length distal of joint joint is characterized. the characterization data is accessed by the processor from the memory of the surgical instrument. The articulation angle of the end effector is tracked by the processor during use of the surgical instrument. the target transection length is adjusted by the processor based on the known articulation angle and the stored characterization data. "Control Arrangements for a Drive Limb of a Surgical Instrument" The present invention relates to a surgical instrument. The surgical instrument can be operated by compensating for the widening effect on flexible scalpel bands on the transection length of a motor-equipped surgical instrument. The surgical instrument includes a processor and a memory. A relationship between the pivot angle of an end actuator and the effective distal transection length of a pivot joint is characterized. The characterization data is accessed by the processor from the memory of the surgical instrument. the end actuator pivot angle is tracked by the processor during use of the surgical instrument the target transect length is adjusted by the processor based on the known pivot angle and stored characterization data.abstract a surgical instrument is disclosed. the surgical instrument may be operated compensating for the effect of splay in flexible knife bands on transection length of a powered surgical instrument. the surgical instrument includes a processor and a memory. a relationship between articulation angle of an end effector and effective transection length distal of an articulation joint is characterized. the characterization data is accessed by the processor from
