EXTENDABLE OVERTUBE FOR A FLEXIBLE ELONGATE DEVICE
An apparatus for movably coupling a robotic system to an airway management device includes an overtube and a connection mechanism. The overtube includes a flexible tubular portion. The connection mechanism includes a first portion configured to be receive the overtube, a second portion configured to be connected with a proximal end of the airway management device, a lumen defined within the first portion and second portion, and a locking mechanism configured to connect to the flexible tubular portion of the overtube. When the overtube is connected with the connection mechanism, the flexible tubular portion of the overtube is within the lumen of the connection mechanism and extends distal to a distal end of the airway management device. The flexible tubular portion of the overtube structurally supports a flexible elongate device when the flexible elongate device is received within flexible tubular portion.
The embodiments described herein can be used in a variety of grasping, cutting, and manipulating operations. In some embodiments, an apparatus includes a shaft, a tool member, and a flexure. The shaft has a distal end portion and a proximal end portion, and defines a longitudinal axis. The distal end portion includes a ground portion. The tool member has an engagement portion and an actuation portion. The engagement portion is disposed distally from the actuation portion, and can exert an engagement force on a target structure. The actuation portion receives an actuation force. The flexure has a first end portion coupled to the ground portion of the shaft, and a second end portion coupled to the tool member. The flexure is configured to deform elastically when the actuation force is exerted on the actuation portion of the tool member such that the tool member rotates relative to the shaft.
