Do not use).Life-span event can be the clamping of end effector, the percussion of end effector, the combination of these events, and/or
It is related to shank module 2102 and/or DSM 2104 other events or action, the event or action can be sensed by apparatus 2100
Arrive.For example, opening switch 2144, closure switch 2146 and the percussion switch 2148 of shank module 2102 can be connected to shank processing
Device 2124.Except or replace described above, status switch 2150 that fixture in DSM 2104 is opened, the state of fixture closure are opened
Close 2152, percussion start status switch 2154 and percussion done state switch 2156 can be connected to shank processor 2124 (via
Interface 2110).According to the design and application of shank module 2102 and apparatus 2100, when some or all of these respective switch
When being activated, and/or being activated in the particular sequence detected by shank processor 2124, life-span event may occur and
It can be counted.For example, in various specific implementations, the fixture closure each detected and the percussion each detected can be counted
Number is life-span event.In other words, the fixture closure detected may include the first life-span event, and the percussion detected can wrap
Include second or different life-span events.In other specific implementations, fixture closure, the countable sequence for being followed by firing are the life-span
Event.In addition, as described above, shank processor 2124 can be used for example from shank sensor 2144,2146,2148 and/or
The input of DSM sensors 2150,2152,2154,2156 detects life-span event.
Shank processor 2124 keeps the counting of life-span event.When detecting life-span event, at step 204, shank
Processor 2124 is incremented by the currency of the life-span event counter in its internal or external memory.Counter can be incremented by
Counter, wherein when life-span event occurs when meeting presetting threshold value, counting, which increases by one, counts and (is incremented by+1)；Or
Counter can be down counter, wherein when life-span event occurs to count different from presetting threshold value until from end
Value reaches specific end counting (for example, zero) after starting when, count reduction one and count (incremental -1).In view of as the life-span
The particular sensor event of event count, presetting life-span event count threshold can be arranged to the system of shank module 2102
Make the desired any value of business.
If life-span event counter reaches presetting life-span event threshold at step 206, at step 208,
Shank processor 2124 can initiate one or more end-of-life actions, such as make the display 2114 or one of shank module 2102

Several constant displays, display 2114 can have icon and/or show shank module close to its life-span using text
Terminal (for example, " N uses left ").Shank processor 2124 can also trigger to be prevented from further using when reaching end of life and counting
The condition of shank module 2102, as further discussed below.If not yet reach end of life counting, shank processor 2124
Continuing with life counter event monitoring switch and sensor, until reaching end-of-life threshold value.
The various specific implementations of sensor can be used to detect some life-span events.For example, used DSM (for example,
3) DSM 1,2 may include two drive shafts, one is used to drive closed-system, and one is used to drive trigger system (each
From respectively by a driving in drive system 20,40).Each such drive shaft can be respectively during clamping or percussion event
Drive forwards bracket.Therefore, closure and/or trigger system may include when closure or percussion bracket (depending on the circumstances) contact them
When the switch that is triggered.Switch can be connected to shank processor 2124, and shank processor 2124 can control oneself in its reception
Registration life-span event count during the signal for the switch being triggered.Switch can be can automatically reset button switch, the switch exists
Its bracket driven every time by drive shaft can all reset when contacting and triggering.
Further described above, ' 590 applications, which describe DSM 1-3, may include a pair to be used to drive various differences

Opening linear stitching unstrument is directed at 34- Figure 37, for bending cutter stitching unstrument at its Figure 38-Figure 41, and in its figure
Circular surgical staplers are directed at 42- Figure 45.Other DSM types, such as straight cuts suitable for shank module can also be used
Device and/or right angle stitching unstrument.Because different DSM can be used together with shank module, so shank module is (for example, at shank
Reason device 2124) more complicated algorithm can be used to follow the trail of the use of shank module and residual life, this depends on using and firing respectively
The DSM of type number.For example, in one illustrates, shank processor 2124 can calculate the life-span event point built up
Number, the fraction are differently weighted (for example, depending on their pressure in shank module such as by different DSM to using
What), and by fraction compared with predetermined threshold value.When the fraction of shank module reaches threshold value, shank module is removed
Return (for example, taking one or more end-of-lifes to act).For example, shank processor 2124 can be based on following relation mathematic(al) expectation
Event score：
The different DSM types that wherein i=1 ... N represents to be used together from shank module are (for example, straight cuts device, line
Sexual openness formula, circle, bending, right angle stitching unstrument etc.), WiFor DSM types i weighting factor, and Fi,jTo be related to DSM classes
Type i j=1 ... DSM types i percussion quantity in S programs.The DSM types for generally applying smaller stress in shank module can
With the low weight W of the DSM types than generally applying bigger stress in shank module.So, in various arrangements, all
In the case of other conditions identical, the shank of the less program of stress will be only used for by being only used for the shank module of high stress program
Expired before module.

It may include the identification of the DSM types to being attached to shank module, when DSM is connected to shank module and/or at shank
When reason device 2124 is established data therebetween with DSM processors 2130 and connect, shank processor can receive this from DSM processors 2130
Identification.During identification and/or certification DSM, DSM processors 2130 send the identifier to shank processor 2124, should
The identification of shank processor is attached to the DSM of shank module type (for example, straight cuts device, circle etc.).Next in step
At 252, shank processor 2124 follows the trail of the number that shank module is fired between surgery average of operation periods.Shank processor 2124 can example
Such as by following the trail of number that firing trigger has been activated and/or by following the trail of feedback (such as end effector storehouse from DSM
The instruction being replaced) follow the trail of the number that shank module has been fired.
After the procedure and/or at any other suitable time, referring now to step 254, shank processor
2124 can update the life-span event score of shank processor by the way that the fraction for the program just completed is added into previous fraction.

The loading environment that apparatus is undergone can be used for tracking shank module and DSM use, to assess shank module and DSM
One or both of whether should be withdrawn.Illustration as one can relate to for example will be actually applied with drive end by apparatus
The power of the firing member of portion's actuator is compared with the power that apparatus expection is subjected to.Similarly, can will be actually applied so that percussion
The power that the power of component retraction is expected to be subjected to apparatus is compared to assess whether shank module and/or DSM should be withdrawn.
The power that shank module can be expected to be subjected to based on shank module is horizontal and is rated the number of thresholds of percussion.Similarly, DSM can base
The number of thresholds of percussion is rated in the power level that DSM is expected to be subjected to.Shank module threshold quantity and DSM number of thresholds can
To be identical or different.If by the actual forces that shank module and/or DSM are subjected to significantly beyond expected power level, shank
Processor and/or DSM processors (depending on the circumstances) can determine that shank module and/or DSM should reach its expected percussion
It is withdrawn before quantity.
In some cases, further described above, by the power that shank module and/or DSM apply in percussion structure
Can be constant in the whole firing schedule of part；However, the power applied by shank module and/or DSM is in whole firing schedule
Change is very common.In either case, the power that is applied by shank module and/or the power applied by shank module is expected in advance
It may depend on firing member position.Similarly, percussion may depend on by the DSM power applied by the DSM power applied and/or pre- expectation
Member position.Certain types of DSM can have expected percussion force, the expection percussion force and the percussions of DSM over the whole length
Stroke is related, i.e. the distance between the initial original position of firing member and its stroke end position.DSM, which can also have, to be expected
Retraction force, the retract stroke of the expection retraction force to DSM over the whole length are related, i.e. the stroke stop bits of firing member

Step 282 place, each in the percussion undergone for shank module and/or DSM, processor then can be by that will fire every time
The power difference value of accumulation accumulate power difference.
On a specific embodiment, further described above, processor can calculate accumulation power difference in real time.
In the case of at least one, processor can calculate the power difference after each percussion and retraction circulation.In some cases, handle
Device can calculate the power difference after each surgical operation, and the surgical operation may include more than one percussion and retraction circulation.For example,
If there is the secondary percussion in seven (7) in specific program, processor will be asked the result of each step 280 in seven percussions
With.Next, at step 284, by the way that the accumulation power difference for the program being recently completed is added to before the program being recently completed
Summation (or in the case of the first program of module be zero), shank module may be updated in shank and/or DSM total accumulation power is poor
Value.At step 286, processor then can be by the accumulation power difference summation of renewal compared with threshold value.If threshold value has reached
To or otherwise meet, then processing be advanced to step 288, wherein taking shank module or DSM (depending on the circumstances) longevity

If shank processor determines that first threshold energy grade (that is, energy grade 1) not yet meets at step 290,
Then processing is advanced to step 292, and wherein shank module determines whether to have met second (for example, relatively low) energy threshold, i.e. figure
Energy grade 2 in 10D.For example, energy grade 2 can be 30kJ.If meet or exceed Second Threshold energy grade (without
Meet or exceed first threshold energy grade), then processing is advanced to step 293, and wherein shank processor determines that shank module exists
Whether have been subjected to, more than a number of percussion of the first power level threshold, be greater than 55 watts twice during its life-span
Percussion is (referring to Figure 10 E).If met or met more than the second energy grade threshold value and power level threshold or
More than predetermined number, then shank processor can determine that shank module is in its end of life.If however, power level
Threshold value not yet meets or more than predetermined number, even if then having met or more than the second energy grade threshold value, at shank
Reason device also can determine that shank module not yet reaches its end of life.Step 292 and 293 double factor can be to shank module
Another test in life-span, and if shank module can not carry out two tests simultaneously and (that is, meet two threshold values or bar
Part), then it can determine that shank module is in its end of life.
Shank processor can perform any amount of such double factor test.Figure 10 C example show one it is other
Such double factor test.If step 292 and 293 double factor are unsatisfactory for, processing can be advanced to step 294, its
Middle shank module determines whether to have met the 3rd (for example, still lower) energy threshold, i.e. energy grade 3.For example, energy etc.
Level 3 can be 25kJ.If the 3rd threshold energy level has been met or exceeded (without meeting or exceeding the 3rd threshold energy etc.
Level), then processing is advanced to step 295, and wherein shank processor determines whether shank module has a fixed number during its life-span
The percussion (quantity for being preferably greater than the such percussion checked at step 293) of amount, the quantity is more than the second power level
Threshold value (it can be identical or different with the power level threshold at step 293 place), it is greater than 55 watts of four percussions.Step
294 and 295 double factor can be another test to shank module life, and if shank module can not be entered simultaneously
Two tests (that is, having met threshold value or condition) of row, then can determine that shank module is in its end of life.Otherwise, at shank
Reason device can determine that shank module is not at its end of life and can used in subsequent program.
It is readily apparent that the step of Figure 10 C can be performed in various orders, while still realize identical result.For example,
Step 294 and 295 can perform before step 290, by that analogy.
