| Zusammenfassung: | A robotic surgical instrument comprising a shaft 301; driving elements running through the shaft; an articulation at a distal end of the shaft for articulating an end effector, the articulation driveable by the driving elements; and an instrument interface 302 at a proximal end of the shaft for driving the driving elements. The instrument interface comprising a monocoque chassis 501 and a routing pulley component 502 housed by the monocoque chassis and separable from the monocoque chassis. Wherein the instrument interface is configured to be assembled by routing the driving elements from the shaft around pulleys of the routing pulley component; securing the driving elements to the monocoque chassis; and after the routing and securing steps, placing the routing pulley component into the monocoque chassis. A method of assembling a robotic surgical instrument is also provided. |
