Abstract
A surgical instrument comprises a surgical end effector having a movable jaw. The moveable jaw includes a first jaw and a second jaw, the second jaw rotatable relative to the first jaw between an open position and a fully-clamped position. A shaft frame operably interfaces with the surgical end effector and comprises a top frame segment having an arcuate outer surface. A closure tube is provided to slide relative to the shaft frame and contact the movable jaw when the closure tube is moved distally through a closure stroke to move the movable jaw from an open position to a fully-clamped position. The top frame segment comprises a sealing member which creates at least a partial seal between the closure tube and the frame.
