Abstract

La présente invention concerne une structure de mâchoire d'un instrument chirurgical. Cette structure de mâchoire comprend une paire de mors installée au niveau de la partie terminale de l'instrument chirurgical et utilisée pour une opération de préhension; un revêtement élastique appliqué sur une surface orientée face à la paire de mors, ce revêtement se transformant lorsqu'il est comprimé par un objet suite à l'opération de préhension des mors; et un bloc de détection intercalé entre le mors et le revêtement élastique, servant à mesurer une force de réaction appliquée aux mors en fonction du niveau de transformation du revêtement élastique. Étant donné que la surface de préhension de la paire de mors est recouverte d'un matériau élastique, il est plus facile de saisir un objet pendant une intervention chirurgicale et la détérioration de l'objet peut être réduite même si les mors sont saisis avec une force excessive. Un réseau de capteurs de force est disposé sur l'autre côté du revêtement élastique afin de détecter intuitivement la force de réaction appliquée aux mors, d'une manière similaire aux sensations d'un être humain.
