摘要：
A surgical instrument is disclosed. The surgical instrument comprises a body operable with a surgical tool and an actuator system supported by the body and configured to convert rotational motion into linear motion to facilitate operation of the surgical tool. The actuator system includes an actuator rod comprising a shaft and a head portion disposed on an end of the shaft. The actuator rod is movable in a translational degree of freedom to facilitate operation of the surgical tool. The actuator system also includes a trigger rotatably supported about the body and moveable by a user. Additionally, the actuator system includes a transition gear coupled to the trigger and comprising a lobe operable to slidably interface with the head portion of the actuator rod. The transition gear is rotatable by the trigger to actuate the actuator rod.
