Cordless Hand-Held Ultrasonic Cautery Cutting Device
First Claim
1. An ultrasonic surgical assembly, comprising:
- an ultrasonic waveguide;
a cordless ultrasonic-movement-generation assembly having;
a selectively removable securing connector; and
an output couple operable to impart ultrasonic movement to the ultrasonic waveguide when the waveguide is connected thereto;
a removable battery; and
a surgical handle having;
a first handle body portion defining therein an aseptically sealable battery-holding compartment;
selectively exposed to the environment;
aseptically removably holding therein the battery; and
electrically connecting the battery therein to the ultrasonic-movement-generation assembly; and
a second handle body portion connected to the first handle body portion and having;
a waveguide attachment dock exposed to the environment and having a first couple operable to connect the waveguide thereto; and
an ultrasonic-movement-generation assembly dock exposed to the environment and shaped to;
removably secure the second handle body portion to the securing connector; and
connect the ultrasonic waveguide in the attachment dock to the output couple through the second handle body portion.

Abstract
An ultrasonic surgical assembly includes an ultrasonic waveguide and a cordless ultrasonic-movement-generation assembly that has a selectively removable securing connector and an output couple operable to impart ultrasonic movement to the ultrasonic waveguide when the waveguide is connected thereto. The assembly also includes a removable battery and a surgical handle that has a first handle body portion defining therein an aseptically sealable battery-holding compartment selectively exposed to the environment, aseptically removably holding therein the battery and electrically connecting the battery therein to the ultrasonic-movement-generation assembly. A second handle body portion is connected to the first handle body portion and has a waveguide attachment dock that is exposed to the environment and has a first couple operable to connect the waveguide thereto and an ultrasonic-movement-generation assembly dock that is exposed to the environment and shaped to removably secure the second handle body portion to the securing connector and connect the ultrasonic waveguide in the attachment dock to the output couple through the second handle body portion.
