Embodiment Construction

[0046] Those of ordinary skill in the art can read the following specific embodiments in conjunction with the attached reference Figure 1-23b To understand the present invention. In all the drawings, independent reference numerals indicate the same or similar parts.

[0047] Refer to figure 1 , Which shows a perspective view of the electromechanical surgical device 10 according to an embodiment of the present invention. The exemplary electromechanical surgical device 10 may include, for example, a remote power console 12 including a housing 14 having a front panel 15. A display device 16 and indicators 18a, 18b, which will be described in detail below, are installed thereon. The flexible shaft 20 protrudes from the housing 14 and is detachably fixed to it by a first coupling 22. The distal end 24 of the flexible shaft 20 may include a second coupling 26 for detachably fixing a surgical instrument and / or attachment to the distal end 24 of the flexible shaft 20. The surgical instr...

Abstract

An electro-mechanical surgical device includes: a housing; an elongated shaft extending from the housing, a distal end of the elongated shaft being detachably coupleable to a surgical instrument; at least two axially rotatable drive shafts disposed within the elongated shaft, a distal end of each of the drive shafts being configured to couple with the surgical instrument; a steering cable arrangement, the steering cable arrangement being configured to steer the distal end of the elongated shaft; and a motor system disposed within the housing, the motor system being configured to drive the drive shafts and the steering cable arrangement. A control system may be provided for controlling the motor system. A remote control unit may also be provided for controlling the motor system via the control system. Sensors, such as optical of Hall-effect devices, may be provided for determining the position of the elements of the surgical instrument based on the detected rotation of the drive shafts. A memory unit stores a plurality of operating programs or algorithms, each corresponding to a type of surgical instrument attachable to the electro-mechanical surgical device. The control system reads or selects from the plurality of operating programs or algorithms, the operating program or algorithm corresponding to the type of surgical instrument attached to the electro-mechanical surgical device.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to an electromechanical surgical device. Background technique [0002] There are numerous descriptions of surgical devices in the references. For example, U.S. Patent 4,705,038 issued to Sjostrom describes a surgical device for electric appliances. The system includes a handle that contains a motor and includes a recess adapted to receive one of a plurality of surgical devices. A pair of reed switches are arranged in the recess, and each surgical device includes one or two magnets suitable for actuating a specially combined reed switch when the instrument is assembled with the handle. The combination of the reed switch and the surgical device actuated by the magnet of the assembled handle is the system recognizes the surgical device thus assembled with the handle. The number of surgical devices that can be identified by the system is limited to four possible combinations of two magnets. [0003] U.S. Patent 4,995,877 issued to Ams desc...
