Uterine manipulator with adjustable cervical cup

1. A uterine manipulator comprising:

a first handle portion supporting a first shaft, the first shaft having a distal portion supporting a first expansible member;

a second handle portion supporting a second shaft, the second shaft having a distal portion supporting a second expansible member, the first shaft extending through the second shaft such that the first expansible member is positioned distally of the second shaft and distally of the second expansible member;

a cervical cup assembly including a cervical cup defining a longitudinal axis and an actuator, the cervical cup fixedly supported on the distal portion of the second shaft, the cervical cup including a body including a base member and a plurality of slats, the plurality of slats being coupled to the base member and being movable between a minimum diameter configuration and a maximum diameter configuration in response to movement of the actuator in relation to the cervical cup; and

a drive member supported on one of the first and second handle portions and extending through the second shaft, the drive member coupled to the actuator such that the actuator is movable along a surface of the cervical cup to move the cervical cup between the minimum diameter configuration and the maximum diameter configuration.

2. The uterine manipulator of claim 1 , wherein each of the plurality of slats is secured to the base member with a living hinge.

3. The uterine manipulator of claim 1 , wherein the actuator includes a ring, the ring being movably positioned about the body to pivot the plurality of slats from the maximum diameter configuration to the minimum diameter configuration, the surface of the cervical cup being an outer surface of the cervical cup.

4. The uterine manipulator of claim 1 , wherein the body of the cervical cup is formed from a resilient material.

5. The uterine manipulator of claim 1 , wherein in an unbiased state, the slats are positioned in the maximum diameter configuration.

6. The uterine manipulator of claim 1 , wherein each of the plurality of slats includes first and second side walls, each of the first side walls defining cutouts and each of the second side walls including fingers, wherein the fingers of each of the plurality of slats are received in the cutouts of an adjacent one of the plurality of slats to guide movement of the slats between the minimum diameter configuration and the maximum diameter configuration.

7. The uterine manipulator of claim 1 , wherein the actuator includes a cam member, the cam member being movably positioned within the plurality of slats along the surface of the cervical cup to pivot the plurality of slats from the minimum diameter configuration to the maximum diameter configuration, wherein the surface of the cervical cup is the inner surface of the cervical cup.

8. The uterine manipulator of claim 7 , wherein the body of the cervical cup is formed from a resilient material.

9. The uterine manipulator of claim 8 , wherein in an unbiased state, the plurality of slats is positioned in the minimum diameter configuration.

10. The uterine manipulator of claim 7 , wherein each of the plurality of slats includes an inner surface which forms the inner surface of the cervical cup, the inner surface of each of the plurality of slats defining a cam surface having an internal ramp.

11. The uterine manipulator of claim 10 , wherein movement of the cam member into engagement with the internal ramp causes movement of the plurality of slats from the minimum diameter position to the maximum diameter position.
