9. An ultrasonic surgical assembly, comprising:
-
a disposable ultrasonic waveguide having a proximal couple part; a reusable cordless ultrasonic transducer having a distal couple part operable to removably couple to the proximal couple part; a battery; and a disposable handle body defining a battery-holding compartment shaped to removably receive the battery therein and having; a transducer dock exposed to the environment and shaped to interchangeably hold the transducer thereat; a waveguide attachment dock shaped to align and attach the distal and proximal couple parts together and thereby hold the waveguide and the transducer at the handle body when the waveguide is docked in the attachment dock; and a disposable driving-wave generation circuit at the handle body and electrically contacting the battery and the transducer, the generation circuit operable to generate an output waveform causing ultrasonic movement in the waveguide through the transducer when the transducer is coupled to the waveguide. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22)
