Abstract
A robotic surgical tool includes a handle providing drive inputs and a shaft drive input, an instrument driver providing drive outputs and a shaft drive output, an elongate shaft extendable through the handle and the instrument driver, an end effector and a wrist arranged at a distal end of the shaft, a decoupler interposing the handle and the instrument driver, an insertion assembly mounted to the decoupler housing, and a differential gear train extending between the insertion assembly and each differential assembly included in the decoupler such that actuation of the insertion assembly correspondingly actuates each differential assembly as the shaft moves.
