Abstract
Some embodiments of the present disclosure may provide an end effector instrument. The end effector instrument may include: an end effector device, the end effector device comprising an effector portion configured to perform a specified operation, and a delivery device connected to the end effector device, the delivery device being configured to deliver the end effector device to a target region where the specified operation is to be performed. The delivery device may include an operation portion. The operation portion may be configured to drive the effector portion to perform the specified operation.
Claims19
An end effector instrument, comprising:
- an end effector device, the end effector device comprising an effector portion configured to perform a specified operation and an accommodation portion configured to partially accommodate the effector portion, the accommodation portion comprising a first connecting portion and an outer pipe, the first connecting portion extending outward from an outer side of a proximal end of the outer pipe along an axial direction of the accommodation portion, and
- a delivery device connected to the end effector device, the delivery device being configured to deliver the end effector device to a target region where the specified operation is to be performed, wherein
- the delivery device includes an operation portion and a delivery pipe, the operation portion being configured to drive the effector portion to perform the specified operation,
- the delivery pipe includes a second connecting portion, the second connecting portion being positioned at a distal end of the delivery pipe, wherein
- the operation portion is operable to move relative to the accommodation portion toward a distal end of the accommodation portion, during which the operation portion first causes the first connecting portion to connect to the second connecting portion and subsequently connects to the effector portion,
- in response to the operation portion at least partially entering into the accommodation portion, the first connecting portion enters into the second connecting portion, thereby connecting the second connecting portion to the first connecting portion, and connecting the delivery device to the end effector device, and
- in response to the operation portion at least partially retracting from the accommodation portion, the first connecting portion retracts from the second connecting portion, thereby disconnecting the second connecting portion from the first connecting portion, and disconnecting the delivery device from the end effector device.
