  • Patent number: 12544067
    Abstract: Systems and subsystems for cutting and stapling tissue are disclosed. More specifically, the present disclosure relates to systems, devices, and subsystems for attachments for robotic surgeries. The surgical instrument is a robotic attachment including a roll subsystem. The roll subsystem comprises a rotatable shaft having a longitudinal axis, a roll input puck engageable with a roll robotic output, a worm gear coupled to and rotatable by the roll input puck, and a worm follower coupled to the rotatable shaft. Rotation of the roll input puck causes the worm gear to rotate the worm follower and thereby roll the rotatable shaft about its longitudinal axis.

  • Publication number: 20250025162
    Abstract: Systems and subsystems for cutting and stapling tissue are disclosed. More specifically, the present disclosure relates to systems, devices, and subsystems for attachments for robotic surgeries. The disclosed technology includes a housing for a surgical instrument configured to engage with a robotic arm. The housing comprises a first opening positioned to be engaged with at least a portion of a robotic arm, a second opening positioned proximate a rod extending from within the housing; and a fluid management system positioned within the housing proximate one of the first opening or the second opening, the fluid management system being configured to hold or divert fluid within the housing.
