Abstract: According to one embodiment, a surgical system includes an imaging system, a determination unit, and a control unit. The imaging system is configured to acquire image information. The determination unit is configured to determine, based on the image information, whether an abnormal state has occurred in the surgical system. The control unit is configured to switch to an abnormality time control mode of executing abnormality-handling processing, when the determination unit determines that an abnormal state has occurred.

Abstract: A tissue ligating device for ligating a tissue includes a suture having an elastic restoring force, and a hook-shaped member including a groove portion, connected to a first end of the suture, and disposed in a direction along a derivation direction of the suture and in a direction opposite to the derivation direction of the suture with respect to the first end of the suture.

Abstract: Provided is a tissue ligation device for ligating tissues. The tissue ligation device includes a suture thread, and a hook-like member having a connecting portion connected to a suture thread-side of the connecting portion of the suture thread and a groove whose inner wall has a locking surface disposed so as to face the suture thread-side connecting portion and allowed to be brought into contact with the suture thread.

Abstract: A surgical power transmission adapter is interposed between a surgical instrument and a power unit configured to drive the surgical instrument. The adapter connects the surgical instrument to the power unit. The adapter includes a power transmission unit. The power transmission unit includes a first region which is in contact with a clean region that is subjected to sterilization processing and a second region which is in contact with an unclean region that is not subjected to the sterilization processing. The unit makes translatory movement to transmit power generated in the power unit to the surgical instrument. A range of the translatory movement of the power transmission unit is set in such a manner that the first region is placed in the clean region and the second region is placed in the unclean region even if the power transmission unit makes the translatory movement.

Abstract: A damper is configured for a vacuum pump that evacuates a vacuum system via gas transfer by a gas transfer mechanism in the vacuum pump by the rotating action of a rotating body in the vacuum pump. The damper restrains the propagation of vibrations produced in the vacuum pump to the vacuum system during an evacuation operation. The damper comprises a vibration absorbing device that is positionable between the vacuum pump and the vacuum system during an evacuation operation and that has a damping characteristic in a frequency band that coincides substantially with a rotation frequency of the rotating body of the vacuum pump.

Abstract: Disclosed are a magnetic bearing device with a vibration restraining function, a magnetic bearing device with a vibration estimating function, and a pump device with the magnetic bearing devices mounted thereto, in which it is possible to realize a reduction in vibration in the apparatus system as a whole inclusive of the equipment associated with the vacuum pump without newly providing a vibration sensor. In a vibration detector, a multiplication result obtained by multiplying the Laplace transformation of a displacement of a rotor by a predetermined transfer function is added to a multiplication result obtained by multiplying the Laplace transformation of a variation in an unbalance force acting on the rotor by the reciprocal of the mass of the rotor. The result of this calculation is reversed in polarity and is added to the output of a compensator by an adder.
