  • Publication number: 20240277401
    Abstract: A surgical system with clamp closure compensation includes a surgical instrument with a shaft assembly, an end effector, and a closure assembly. The shaft assembly has an articulation section configured to articulate to a selected articulation of a plurality of articulation configurations including a straight configuration and a plurality of predetermined articulated configurations. The end effector distally extends from the articulation section and has a first jaw and a second jaw movably secured relative to each other such that the first and second jaws are configured to selectively move from an open configuration to a first closed configuration. The closure assembly is operatively connected to the end effector and configured to urge the first and second jaws from the open configuration to the first closed configuration based at least on the selected articulation of the articulation section for adjusting tissue compression to compensate for the selected articulation.

  • Patent number: 7191479
    Abstract: A hospital bed that changes bed sheets without moving the patient. It is composed of a bedstead (including a headboard, a footboard and a bed frame), a deformable bed top, a spool rack and roller shafts on both sides; the ends of the deformable bed top are fixed on the headboard and footboard respectively, and the bed top is pressed into between the roller axles by the spool rack which forms a tightened and leveled bed top that is sunken in the spool rack. Two bed sheets cover the bed, extending respectively from headboard and footboard into the spool rack and rolling on a roller axle. The roller axles and roller shafts are parallel to the cross section of the bed, and are movable between the headboard and footboard with the spool rack. When the spool rack is moving, one bed sheet is spread, another one is rolled up automatically.
