摘要： Surgical tools having a two degree-of-freedom wrist, wrist articulation by linked tension members, mechanisms for transmitting torque through an angle, and minimally invasive surgical tools incorporating these features are disclosed. An elongate intermediate wrist member is pivotally coupled with a distal end of an instrument shaft so as to rotate about a first axis transverse to the shaft, and an end effector body is pivotally coupled with the intermediate member so as to rotate about a second axis that is transverse to the first axis. Linked tension members interact with attachment features to articulate the wrist. A torque-transmitting mechanism includes a coupling member, coupling pins, a drive shaft, and a driven shaft. The drive shaft is coupled with the driven shaft so as to control the relative orientations of the drive shaft, the coupling member, and the driven shaft.

摘要： A universal coupling is provided that aims to achieve constant velocity between the input and output shafts. The universal coupling also aims to increase the angle between input and output shafts over conventional double Cardan joints while maintaining constant velocity or near constant velocity therebetween. The universal coupling can employ a Sarrus type linkage in-between two universal joints of the Cardan type in a configuration that aims to achieve joint angles up to and including 90 degrees in the Y-Z plane, while maintaining constant velocity or near constant velocity therebetween.

摘要： In a universal joint, a connector member with jacket connects joint halves, each having a ball joint with first connection to the connector member; shaft with eccentric arm; and inner piece with first and second orthogonal axes. A second connection, rotary around the first axis, connects eccentric arm and inner piece. Shaft axis and first axis extend orthogonally. The ball joint has third connection to the shaft rotary around the shaft axis. Fourth connection, rotary around the second axis, connects inner piece and connector member. The first connection is rotary around an axis orthogonal to the second axis and in a common plane with the first axis. A pivot point of the ball joint is offset to the rotary axis of the first connection and the shaft axis. The inner piece extends through first or a second opening of the jacket. The fourth connection is placed within the jacket.

摘要： Large parallel and angular misalignment capabilities between coupled rotary shafts are provided in a torsionally rigid coupling by slidable and rotatable medial mounting of each of two radial, axially spaced, perpendicularly disposed torque pins through axially spaced radially perpendicular apertures through an axial connector and slidably trapping each end of each radial torque pin in an arcuate path between two apposed arms of one of two radially opposed forks projecting inwardly about either end of the axial connector from one of two yoked hubs. The perpendicular relation of the torque pins and slidable and rotatable medial mounting through the axial connector with ends trapped in opposed arcuate paths between radially opposed forks of each yoked hub allows displacement of the torque pins, with respect to the axial connector or the yoked hubs, about three mutually perpendicular axes thereby accommodating parallel and angular misalignment between coupled rotary shafts.

摘要： A coupling includes a first coupling member, a second coupling member, and a third coupling member being located in between the first coupling member and the second coupling member. The third coupling member has formed thereon a first pair of connecting elements diametrically opposed to one another and defining a first axis, and further has formed thereon a second pair of connecting elements diametrically opposed to one another and defining a second axis that is substantially perpendicular to the first axis. The first coupling member has formed thereon a third pair of connecting elements configured to conform to the first pair of connecting elements of the third coupling member. Formed on the second coupling member is a fourth pair of connecting elements configured to conform to the second pair of connecting elements of the third coupling member.

摘要： A driven-side rotor shaft end of an electric motor is drive-connected to a drive-side pump shaft end of a pump via a coupling piece, in the manner of a cardan joint, in each case by means of the positive axial plug receptacle. The invention provides protection against torsional thrusts and axial vibrations, and a play-free drive by virtue of a conical design of the plug receptacle, at the same time with a mutual axial prestress of the rotor shaft end and pump shaft end.
