Cordless hand-held ultrasonic cautery cutting device
First Claim
1. An ultrasonic surgical assembly, comprising:
- an exterior assembly body;
a cordless ultrasonic-movement-generation assembly disposed in the assembly body;
a battery removably disposed in the assembly body;
a handle having;
a handle body;
an ultrasonic waveguide rotational freely connected to the handle body, the ultrasonic-movement-generation assembly operable to dynamically produce a resonant wave along the waveguide to thereby generate ultrasonic movement of the waveguide when connected thereto; and
an aseptically sealable assembly dock exposed to the environment and shaped to connect the waveguide to the ultrasonic-movement-generation assembly through the handle body when the cordless ultrasonic-movement-generation assembly is removably disposed in the assembly dock; and
a compartment door movably connected to the handle body to selectively expose the assembly dock to the environment and having;
an open position permitting entry and removal of the ultrasonic-movement-generation assembly respectively into and out from the assembly dock; and
a closed position aseptically sealing the assembly dock from the environment.

Abstract
An ultrasonic surgical assembly includes a disposable ultrasonic waveguide, a reusable exterior body, and a cordless ultrasonic-movement-generation assembly removably disposed in the body and operable to generate ultrasonic movement of the waveguide when connected thereto. The assembly also includes a reusable and rechargeable battery disposed in the body, a disposable handle having both a waveguide attachment dock exposed to the environment and operably connecting the waveguide thereto and an aseptically sealable assembly dock exposed to the environment and shaped to connect the waveguide in the attachment dock to the assembly through the handle when the assembly is disposed in the assembly dock. The assembly further includes a disposable compartment door that is movably connected to the handle to selectively expose the assembly dock to the environment and has an open position, permitting entry and removal of the assembly respectively into and from the assembly dock, and a closed position, aseptically sealing the assembly dock from the environment.

27. An ultrasonic surgical assembly, comprising:
-
an exterior assembly body defining an internal compartment; a cordless ultrasonic-movement-generation assembly removably disposed in the internal compartment and having an output couple operable to generate ultrasonic movement thereat; a battery disposed in the internal compartment and electrically connected to and powering the ultrasonic-movement-generation assembly; a handle body having; a first handle body portion defining a handgrip; a second handle body portion connected to the first handle body portion and having; an ultrasonic waveguide rotational freely connected to the handle body, the ultrasonic-movement-generation assembly operable to dynamically produce a resonant wave along the waveguide to thereby generate ultrasonic movement of the waveguide when connected thereto; and an aseptically sealable assembly dock exposed to the environment and shaped to connect the waveguide to the output couple through the second handle body portion when the ultrasonic-movement-generation assembly is disposed in the assembly dock; and a compartment door movably connected to the second handle body portion to selectively expose the assembly dock to the environment and having; an open position permitting entry and removal of the ultrasonic-movement-generation assembly respectively into and out from the assembly dock; and a closed position aseptically sealing the assembly dock from the environment. - View Dependent Claims (28)
