A surgical instrument includes a drive member movable by a drive motor between a home position and an end of stroke. A mechanical stop is disposed at or near the end of stroke and is structured to increase resistance to movement of the drive member from a first position to a second position. A control system detects a current spike associated with the increased resistance and interrupts power to the drive motor.
1. A surgical instrument comprising an electromechanical stop, where the surgical instrument comprises: a drive motor;a drive member movable by the drive motor through a drive stroke between a home position and an end of stroke, the end of stroke extending between a first position and a second posit
1. A surgical instrument comprising an electromechanical stop, where the surgical instrument comprises: a drive motor;a drive member movable by the drive motor through a drive stroke between a home position and an end of stroke, the end of stroke extending between a first position and a second position;a mechanical stop disposed at or near the end of stroke and structured to increase resistance to movement of the drive member through the end of stroke from the first position to the second position; anda control system configured to detect a current spike associated with the increased resistance, wherein delivery of power to the drive motor is interrupted when the control system detects the current spike. 2. The surgical instrument of claim 1, wherein the mechanical stop further comprises: a bumper movable from the first position to the second position and configured to contact the drive member at the first position; anda resistance member operatively coupled to the bumper and configured to increase resistance to movement of the drive member from the first position to the second position. 3. The surgical instrument of claim 2, wherein the resistance member is structured to be compressible to progressively increase the resistance to the movement of the drive member between the first position and the second position. 4. The surgical instrument of claim 3, wherein the resistance member comprises a spring. 5. The surgical instrument of claim 2, wherein the bumper comprises contact surfaces dimensioned to complement a dimension of a drive member surface contacted at the first position. 6. The surgical instrument of claim 1, wherein the resistance member is configured to decelerate the drive member prior to the drive member actuating to the second position. 7. The surgical instrument of claim 6, wherein the mechanical stop further comprises a hard stop preventing movement of the drive member beyond the second position. 8. The surgical instrument of claim 6, wherein the control system monitors voltage associated with the delivery of power to the drive motor to detect the current spike. 9. The surgical instrument of claim 8, wherein the current spike comprises a predetermined threshold current. 10. The surgical instrument of claim 9, wherein the predetermined threshold current comprises at least one predetermined threshold current differential over at least one defined time period. 11. A mechanical stop for use in a surgical instrument for producing a detectable current spike associated with an electromechanical stop, the mechanical stop comprising: one or more bumpers; andone or more resistance members;the mechanical stop disposed at or near an end of stroke associated with a drive stroke of a drive member, wherein the end of stroke extends between a first position and a second position;the bumpers movable from the first position to the second position of the end of stroke and configured to contact the drive member at the first position;the resistance members operatively coupled to the bumpers and configured to increase resistance to movement of the drive member from the first position to the second position to produce the current spike; andwherein the resistance members are configured to decelerate the drive member prior to the drive member driving to the second position. 12. The mechanical stop of claim 11, wherein one or more of the resistance members are structured to be compressible to progressively increase the resistance to the movement of the drive member between the first position and the second position. 13. The mechanical stop of claim 12, wherein the bumpers comprise contact surfaces dimensioned to complement a dimension of a drive member surface contacted at the first position. 14. The mechanical stop of claim 12, wherein the one or more resistance members structured to be compressible comprise at least one spring. 15. The mechanical stop of claim 11, wherein the mechanical stop further comprises a hard stop preventing movement of the drive member beyond the second position. 16. The mechanical stop of claim 11, wherein the current spike is detectable by a control system associated with the surgical instrument, and wherein the control system is configured monitor voltage associated with power delivery to a drive motor and to interrupt the delivery of power to the drive motor when the current spike crosses at least one predetermined threshold current. 17. The mechanical stop of claim 16, wherein the at least one threshold current comprises a current differential over at least one defined time period. 18. A surgical instrument, comprising: a motor;a drive member movable by the motor between an first position and a second position;a stop member disposed between the first position and the second position, wherein the stop member is configured to resist the movement of the drive member toward the second position; anda control system configured to interrupt delivery of power to the motor when the resistance to the movement of the drive member reaches a resistance threshold. 19. The surgical instrument of claim 18, wherein the resistance is determined by the control system based on at least one of a current measurement or a voltage measurement.
