Abstract
An apparatus includes an end effector, a shaft assembly, an instrument base, and a bailout assembly. The instrument base includes at least one input assembly capable of engaging an output assembly of a robotic arm. The bailout assembly includes an actuating body and a driving assembly. The actuating body is capable of actuating relative to instrument base from a pre-bailout position, an engaged position, and a bailout position. The driving assembly is capable of actuating from a first position toward a second position to drive the output assembly of the robotic arm out of engagement with the at least one input assembly of the instrument base in response to the actuating body actuating from the engaged position into the bailout position. The driving assembly remains in the first position while the actuating body is in the pre-bailout position.
