A clip applying apparatus is described for applying clips seriatim to tissue. The apparatus includes a lockout member for limiting distal movement of the camming member after the proximal-most clip has been applied to tissue. In one embodiment, the apparatus includes a jaw locking member for preventing approximation of the jaw members of the apparatus. In one embodiment, a latch assembly is provided to releasably engage a clip pusher of the apparatus to the camming member of the apparatus.
1. An apparatus for applying surgical clips comprising: a body portion housing a clip stack; anda pair of jaws supported at a distal end of the body portion;the body portion including a clip pusher, a camming member and a clip follower, the clip pusher being movably positioned within the body portio
1. An apparatus for applying surgical clips comprising: a body portion housing a clip stack; anda pair of jaws supported at a distal end of the body portion;the body portion including a clip pusher, a camming member and a clip follower, the clip pusher being movably positioned within the body portion and being operable to advance a distal-most clip from the clip stack to a position between the pair of jaws, the camming member being movably positioned within the body portion and being operable to approximate the pair of jaws in response to direct engagement with the pair of jaws to deform the distal-most clip resulting from a distal movement of the camming member, and the clip follower being positioned proximally of the clip stack and operable to urge the clip stack distally towards the pair of jaws;wherein the body portion further includes a lockout member and a stop member, the lockout member including a central body portion defining a recess in a distal end of the central body portion, the lockout member being movable from a first position in slidable relation to the caroming member to a second position interlocked with the camming member such that the lockout member and the camming member move in unison with one another, wherein in its second position, the recess of the lockout member abuts the stop member to limit distal movement of the camming member. 2. The apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the lockout member includes at least one flexible leg having a projection and the camming member includes at least one slot dimensioned to receive the projection to interlock the lockout member to the camming member. 3. The apparatus according to claim 2, wherein the at least one flexible leg includes a pair of flexible legs and the at least one slot includes a pair of slots. 4. The apparatus according to claim 2, wherein the clip follower includes a tab and the lockout member includes an engagement member that extends distally from a distal end of the lockout member, the tab being movable into the engagement member to move the lockout member from its first position to its second position. 5. The apparatus according to claim 4, wherein when the lockout member is disposed in the second position, the lockout member and the camming member are positioned to simultaneously move distally until a recess defined in the lockout abuts the stop member to prevent further distal movement of lockout and camming member. 6. The apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the lockout member includes a resilient finger which is positioned to releasably retain the lockout member in its first position. 7. The apparatus according to claim 6, wherein the body portion further includes a separator plate, the separator plate including an opening dimensioned to receive a portion of the resilient finger of the lockout member. 8. The apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the clip follower includes a tab and the lockout member includes an engagement member, the tab being movable into the engagement member to move the lockout member from its first position to its second position. 9. The apparatus according to claim 8, wherein the tab is positioned to engage the engagement member after the proximal most clip has been advanced to the pair of jaws. 10. The apparatus according to claim 8, wherein the engagement member extends distally from a distal end of the lockout member. 11. The apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the lockout member includes at least one flexible leg having a projection, the camming member includes at least one slot, and the clip follower includes at least one tab that is movable into an engagement member that extends distally from a central body portion of the lockout member, wherein engagement of the at least one tab with the engagement member moves the lockout member to the second position so that the projection of the at least one flexible leg is received by the at least one slot of the camming member to interlock the lockout member to the camming member. 12. The apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the lockout member defines a plane in the first position, the lockout member being movable along and remaining within the plane as the lockout member moves from the first position to the second position.
