wherein the body comprises an interface, a first portion, and a second portion;
wherein the interface is dimensioned to receive a mounting feature of a cannula;
wherein the first portion of the body exhibits a first rigidity;
wherein the second portion of the body exhibits a second rigidity less than the first rigidity;
wherein one of the first portion of the body and the second portion of the body comprises a surface feature; and
wherein the surface feature comprises a depression arranged and dimensioned to engage a clamping arm of the cannula mount of the surgical system.
2. The sterile adaptor of claim 1 , wherein the first portion of the body comprises the surface feature.
3. The sterile adaptor of claim 1 , wherein the second portion of the body comprises the surface feature.
4. The sterile adaptor of claim 1 , further comprising a retention feature configured to engage the cannula mount to removably couple the sterile adaptor to the cannula mount.
5. The sterile adaptor of claim 4 , wherein:
the retention feature comprises one or more openings in the first portion of the body; and
each of the one or more openings is arranged and dimensioned to receive a corresponding retention member of one or more retention members of the cannula mount.
6. The sterile adaptor of claim 1 , wherein the first portion of the body is coupled with a surgical drape.
7. The sterile adaptor of claim 1 , wherein the second portion of the body comprises a thermoplastic elastomer material.
8. The sterile adaptor of claim 1 , wherein:
the first portion of the body comprises an aperture;
the aperture is dimensioned to receive an attachment portion of a cannula through the aperture when the attachment portion of the cannula is in an installed position in the sterile adaptor;
the second portion of the body comprises a deformable structure surrounding the aperture; and
the deformable structure is configured to deform around the attachment portion of the cannula when the attachment portion of the cannula is in an installed position in the sterile adaptor.
9. The sterile adaptor of claim 8 , wherein the deformable structure comprises a bellows.
10. The sterile adaptor of claim 8 , wherein the deformable structure has a square frustum shape tapering away from the first portion of the body and dimensioned to receive a corresponding square frustum shape of the attachment portion of the cannula.
11. A sterile adaptor for engaging a cannula mount at a manipulator arm of a surgical system, the sterile adaptor comprising:
a flange portion; and
a protruding portion extending from the flange portion;
wherein the protruding portion is dimensioned and configured to be removably received at least partially in a cannula mount of a manipulator arm of a surgical system;
wherein a recess is defined in the protruding portion;
wherein an aperture opening to the recess is defined in the flange portion;
wherein the aperture and the recess are dimensioned to receive a mounting feature of a cannula; and
wherein the protruding portion has a different rigidity than the flange portion.
12. The sterile adaptor of claim 11 , wherein the flange portion has a higher rigidity than the protruding portion.
13. The sterile adaptor of claim 11 , further comprising a retention feature configured to couple the sterile adaptor to the cannula mount.
14. The sterile adaptor of claim 13 , wherein:
the retention feature comprises one or more openings in the flange portion; and
each of the one or more openings is arranged and dimensioned to receive a corresponding retention member of one or more retention members of the cannula mount.
15. A system, comprising:
a sterile adaptor configured to removably engage with a cannula mount of a manipulator arm of a surgical system; and
a cannula;
wherein the cannula comprises a bowl section, a tube extending from the bowl section along a longitudinal axis, and an attachment portion extending away from the bowl section along a radial direction with respect to the longitudinal axis;
wherein the sterile adaptor comprises a recess and an aperture opening to the recess; and
wherein the recess is dimensioned and arranged to receive at least a portion of the attachment portion of the cannula in an engaged state of the sterile adaptor with the cannula mount of the manipulator arm.
16. The system of claim 15 , wherein the sterile adaptor comprises a first material having a first rigidity and a second material having a second rigidity less than the first rigidity.
17. The system of claim 16 , wherein:
the sterile adaptor comprises a sidewall;
the recess is defined in the sidewall; and
the sidewall comprises the second material.
18. The system of claim 15 , wherein the attachment portion of the cannula comprises a square frustum shape.
19. The system of claim 15 , wherein the attachment portion of the cannula comprises one or more depressions located and dimensioned to receive a cannula mount of a surgical system.
