摘要: A surgical robotic component comprising an articulated terminal portion, the terminal portion comprising: a distal segment having an attachment connected thereto, an intermediate segment, and a basal segment whereby the terminal portion is attached to the remainder of the surgical robotic component. The terminal portion further comprises a first articulation between the distal segment and the intermediate segment, the first articulation permitting relative rotation of the distal segment and the intermediate segment about a first axis, and a second articulation between the intermediate segment and the basal segment, the second articulation permitting relative rotation of the intermediate segment and the basal segment about a second axis. The intermediate segment comprises: a third articulation permitting relative rotation of the distal segment and the basal segment about third and fourth axes, a first torque sensor configured to sense torque about the third axis, and a second torque sensor configured to sense torque about the fourth axis. The first, second and third articulations are arranged such that in at least one configuration of the third articulation the first and second axes are parallel and the third and fourth axes are transverse to the first axis.

摘要: A method for characterising the performance of a joint in a surgical robotic arm, the joint being driven by a drivetrain which transfers power from a drive source to the joint, the method comprising: sending a first command signal to position the robot arm into an initial configuration; sending a second command signal to apply a force to the joint to displace the joint from a steady state; for a plurality of predefined time intervals: receiving a first measurement indicating the configuration of the drive source at a first end of the drivetrain; receiving a second measurement indicating the configuration of the joint at a second end of the drivetrain; calculating a value of elongation using the first and second measurements; and receiving a third measurement indicating the torque experienced by the joint at the second end of the drivetrain; comparing the values of elongation with corresponding values of torque at each of the predefined time intervals; and generating an output from the comparison indicating the performance of the joint.
