Summary: | An end effector for a robotic surgical tool includes a first jaw providing a first jaw extension, a second jaw providing a second jaw extension, and an articulable wrist operatively coupled to the first and second jaws. The wrist includes a distal clevis, first and second pulleys rotatably mounted to the distal clevis at a pivot axis, the first jaw extension being pinned to the first pulley and the second jaw extension being pinned to the second pulley, and a linkage mounted to the first and second jaws and defining a slot. An alignment arm is rotatably mounted to the first pulley at the pivot axis and providing an alignment bar translatable within the slot. |
