Definitions
- the invention relates to a surgical instrument with a coupling device for releasably connecting its shaft to a handle.
- Medical or surgical instruments are known from the prior art, which have a hollow shaft, a handle arranged at the proximal end of the shaft and a force transmission element mounted in the shaft, at the distal end of which a tool is arranged, which is activated by actuating the handle the power transmission element can be controlled.
- a handle is, for example, a handle with at least one movable and one immovable handle part.
- the shaft and the handle can be detachably connected to one another via a coupling mechanism.
- the proximal end of the shaft can be mechanically rigidly connected to a rotary handle part which is rotatably mounted on the handle in order to be able to rotate the shaft relative to the force transmission element and the handle.
- EP 3 351 191 B1 discloses a locking bracket for coupling a shaft assembly of a pliers attachment to a special handle.
- the locking bracket is pivotally arranged on the shaft assembly via a sleeve-like bearing piece and has a holding section which can engage the handle with a circumferential collar, so that the shaft assembly is pulled against a cone on the handle. Thanks to an elastic design of the locking bracket, this connection is free of play.
- such a locking bracket is a relatively expensive component, which is also only limited due to the increased space requirement and therefore cannot be used for all types of surgical instruments. Adaptation to a pistol-shaped handle, for example, is not easily possible. Furthermore, this coupling method does not allow shaft rotation.
- EP 1 196 097 B1 relates to a connection between the handle and the shaft of a surgical instrument, the shaft being fixed in a sleeve-like housing part of the handle by radially movable spherical locking bodies penetrating into recesses in the shaft.
- a spring-loaded holding means secures the spherical locking bodies in the recesses and holds a displaceable stop element in a release position which allows the locking bodies to move radially outwards into the recesses.
- EP 0 820 256 B1 for the detachable connection of a handle to a shaft tube, which is connected at the proximal end to a shaft receiving part.
- a rotating sleeve which is arranged around the shaft receiving part, and the shaft receiving part, there is arranged a locking sleeve which can be moved in the axial direction and which accommodates at least one spherical locking element which can be moved outwards.
- the rotating sleeve and/or the handle has a conical recess, so that the handle is connected to the shaft tube by locking the locking element in the recess.
- EP 1 191 888 B1 also discloses a coupling of shaft and handle with spherical locking elements which are positioned between two conical surfaces.
- DE 10 2011 001 890 A1 discloses a surgical instrument with an instrument shaft, the shaft end of which has a connecting pin that protrudes radially to the instrument axis for connection to the handle. This is divided by a slot into two springy arms, on the free ends of which two locking lugs are formed.
- the housing of the handle has a corresponding through hole to form a locking engagement with the connecting pin, which is engaged behind by the locking lugs so that the connection between the handle and shaft is secured in one direction of force.
- the pin with the locking lugs protrudes from the housing of the handle, it is possible for the locking connection to be accidentally released during use.
- a locking connection is known from DE 103 57 104 A1, in which elastic tongues with engagement elements at the free end are provided as locking elements on the handle or the shaft insert, which can engage with corresponding recesses or projections on the shaft insert or the handle.
- DE 20 2004 019 174 Ul relates to a surgical instrument in which the handle can be connected to the proximal end of the shaft by an elastic snap connection, the shaft having two longitudinal slots at its proximal end.
- locking recesses are formed at a transition from a distal section with a constant width to a proximal section which widens towards the proximal end.
- the handle has a receiving sleeve into which the proximal end of the shaft can be inserted, with a locking pin protruding in the receiving sleeve entering one of the locking recesses.
- an additional pin is required, which snaps into a transverse recess on the proximal end of the shaft.
- the coupling mechanism is designed as a combined clamping and locking device, with a conical proximal end of the shaft being clamped in a correspondingly tapering counter-cone of a sleeve, which is mounted in an axially displaceable manner in a receiving bore in the handle.
- a locking element is mounted transversely to the receiving hole so that it can be moved against the force of a spring element.
- the locking element consists of a locking member with a keyhole-shaped through hole in cross section for receiving the sleeve with the jammed proximal shaft end.
- the shaft is fixed via two recesses formed congruently in the proximal end of the shaft and in the sleeve, into which the locking member of the locking element engages, so that the sleeve and the shaft counter axial displacement are fixed in the handle, whereby rotation of the shaft is also prevented.
- this locking connection is subject to play, since there must always be a certain amount of play between the locking element and its guide and between the locking element and the recess in the sleeve in order to ensure function in all conceivable tolerance positions.
- DE 100 64 623 CI describes a spring-loaded locking element for securing the rotation of a bayonet connection between the distal shaft end and a pliers head on the tool tip, which is mounted on the proximal end region of the shaft in the handle in a hole running transversely to the shaft.
- the locking element has a keyhole-shaped through hole with an upper round passage area and a lower narrow barrel area.
- the pull rod has an engagement area in the area with a rotationally asymmetrical, e.g. B. rectangular cross section, which is non-rotatable in the assembled state, but is accommodated longitudinally displaceably in the gripping area of the locking element.
- a surgical instrument has a hollow shaft which defines a longitudinal axis A of the surgical instrument, a handle arranged at the proximal end of the shaft, ie near the operator in use, and a force transmission element mounted in the shaft, which is on the distal side, i.e at the end remote from the operator, is connected to a tool and on the proximal side to the handle.
- the surgical instrument has a coupling device for releasably connecting the shaft and the handle, which is designed as a latching device with a latching element which is between a latching position in which the latching element engages with at least one recess at the proximal end of the shaft, and a release position in which the locking element is not in engagement with the recess.
- the locking element has at least one wedge-like engagement section which has an engagement plane E, the length of which along the longitudinal axis A is a length of the recess along the Longitudinal axis A corresponds, so that the wedge-like engagement section is received in the locking position up to the engagement plane in the recess.
- This locking device of a surgical instrument reduces the play between the handle and shaft components, since the wedge-like engagement section of the locking element compensates for tolerance differences due to its contour.
- “Wedge-like” is understood to mean a shape of the engagement section in which, as with a wedge, two side surfaces facing away from one another, which extend from a rectangular base surface, are not parallel, but converge towards one another, so that the distance between the side surfaces decreases over the height.
- the locking element or the engagement section of the locking element is not limited to the shape of a wedge, in which two side surfaces facing away from one another, starting from the rectangular base surface, meet at a common edge, so that the wedge is triangular in profile.
- the shape of the wedge-like engagement section can also have a base shape that deviates from the rectangular shape, as long as it has two parallel sides, from which the two side surfaces facing away from one another extend converging towards one another, so that, as with a wedge, the distance between the side surfaces decreases over the height.
- a "wedge-like" shape can also be a truncated wedge shape in which the side surfaces do not converge at a common edge and which is created when the tip of a wedge is cut off with the edge.
- the two converging side surfaces of the wedge-like engagement section can be designed with different inclinations and profiles. The side surfaces can be designed as flat surfaces with the same inclination, so that the distance between the side surfaces decreases proportionally over the height.
- the two side surfaces it is also conceivable for the two side surfaces to have a different inclination and/or for the inclination to vary over the height, so that at least one side surface can also be stepped or curved. Consequently, it is possible that the inclination of the converging side surfaces of the wedge-like engagement section is not constant over the height, so that the distance between the side surfaces does not decrease proportionally over the height.
- the surgical instrument according to the invention can, in a preferred embodiment, have a rotary handle part which is rotatably mounted on the handle about the longitudinal axis A.
- the rotary handle part has the latching device for releasably connecting the handle to the shaft having.
- the rotatability of the shaft is provided by the mounting of the rotary handle part on the handle, so that the locking engagement of the locking device with the shaft in the rotary handle part does not require rotatability and can therefore be designed to be rotationally fixed.
- the non-rotatable connection between the shaft and the rotary handle part contributes to reducing the axial play at the interface between the handle and the rotatable shaft.
- the rotary handle part can have a receiving bore as part of the latching device, which extends along the longitudinal axis A and is designed to receive the proximal end of the shaft.
- the locking device in the rotary handle part can have a guide hole, the guide axis B of which runs transversely to the receiving hole in the rotary handle part, preferably at right angles to the longitudinal axis A.
- the locking element is arranged to be movable along the guide axis B in this guide hole.
- the wedge-like engagement section has a trapezoidal profile which, in accordance with a trapezoidal shape, has a longer base side and a shorter top side parallel thereto, which are connected by the non-parallel side surfaces. It is provided that the length of the base side is greater and the length of the top side is smaller than the length of the recess at the proximal end of the shaft, so that the engagement plane E of the wedge-like engagement section lies in the area between the longer base side and the shorter top side of the trapezoidal profile.
- a further embodiment of the surgical instrument according to the invention provides that the locking element is arranged in the guide bore such that the longer base side points away from the shaft and the trapezoidal profile lies in a plane spanned by the longitudinal axis A and the guide axis B or runs parallel thereto.
- the trapezoidal profile of the wedge-like engagement section can have a rectangular trapezoidal shape, wherein the side surface which represents the trapezoidal leg running at right angles to the base side and the top side defines a guide side which - like the non-converging side surfaces of the wedge-like engagement element - supports a linear guidance of the locking element in the guide bore along the guide axis B.
- the locking device has a spring element, via which the locking element is prestressed in the direction of the locking position.
- such a spring element can be arranged between the base side of the engagement section of the locking element and a bottom of the guide bore.
- the locking element in a further embodiment of the surgical instrument according to the invention can have an actuating section which can be designed differently depending on the design of the locking element.
- the locking element can have, in addition to the engagement section, a through hole for the shaft and an actuation section, the through hole being arranged between the actuation section and the wedge-like engagement section.
- the through hole can, for example, be cylindrical or keyhole-shaped in cross section.
- such a locking element with an engagement section, through hole and actuating section can have a trapezoidal profile overall, i.e. that is, the actuation section can also have a trapezoidal profile, which complements the trapezoidal profile of the engagement section to the overall trapezoidal shape of the locking element.
- a print head can be arranged on the actuation section or the actuation section can be designed as a print head in order to facilitate the pressure actuation of the locking element along the guide axis B to release the locking engagement.
- the print head In the latching position, the print head can preferably be located in a position in the guide hole in which it can be easily reached by an operator without it protruding from the guide hole in order to avoid unintentional loosening of the latching engagement.
- the locking element has an actuating section which extends from the wedge-like engagement section essentially at right angles to the longitudinal axis A and the guide axis B.
- Such an actuation section can be in the manner of a slider in a guide groove running parallel to the guide hole. stretch so that the locking element can be actuated to release the locking engagement parallel to the guide hole.

- Fig. 1 shows an example of a surgical instrument 100 which has a hollow outer shaft or shaft 1 which defines a longitudinal axis A.
- a surgical tool 7 which is connected to a rod-shaped force transmission element 6, also called a pull rod, which is mounted in the shaft 1 and extends through the shaft 1.
- a handle 5 which in this example has a stationary grip part 5.3 and a movable grip part 5.2 which is brought into operative connection with the force transmission element 6 for actuating the tool 7.
- the surgical instrument 100 has a locking device 10 as a coupling device, which in the particularly advantageous embodiment shown by way of example in Figures 1 to 3 is accommodated in a rotary handle part 2 which is arranged on the handle 5 so as to be rotatable about the longitudinal axis A for the rotation of the shaft 1.
- the locking device has a locking element 3 for the detachable connection of the handle 5 to the proximal end 1.1 of the shaft 1, which can be moved between a locking position shown in Fig. 2, in which the locking element 3 is in engagement with a recess 1.2 at the proximal end 1.1 of the shaft 1, and a release position shown in Fig. 3, in which the locking element 3 is not in engagement with the recess 1.2, so that the shaft 1 can be detached from the handle 5 or joined thereto.
- the locking element 3 has a wedge-like engagement section 3.2, which has a length on an engagement plane E parallel to the longitudinal axis A that corresponds to the length of the recess 1.2 parallel to the longitudinal axis A, so that the engagement section 3.2 in the locking position is received in the recess 1.2 up to the engagement plane E.
- the shaft 1 is fixed against axial displacement in the rotary handle part 2 due to the wedge-like engagement section 3.2 of the locking element 3, which is rotatably mounted on the handle 5.
- the locking device 10 in the illustrated embodiment has two diametrically formed recesses 1.2 in the proximal end 1.1 of the shaft 1, the locking element 3 engaging with its engagement section 3.2 in one of the two recesses 1.2 in a locking manner.
- the locking engagement can then only take place in a single rotational positioning of the shaft 1 if the circumferential position of the recess 1.2 corresponds to the position of the engagement section 3.2 of the locking element 3 .
- the engagement can take place in two rotational positions of the shaft 1.
- the shaft 1 is not only fixed without play in the axial direction by the locking element 3, but is also connected to the rotary handle part 2 in a rotationally fixed manner.
- the width of the locking element 3 can correspond to the width of the recess 1.2.
- a receiving bore 2.1 that is open on the distal side and runs along the longitudinal axis A is formed in the rotary handle part 2 for receiving the proximal end 1.1 of the shaft 1.
- the rotary handle part 2 is rotatably mounted on the handle 5, of which only a section with a radially inwardly projecting collar 5.1 is shown in Fig. 2 and 3, which is in rotatable engagement with a flange section 2.2 of the rotary handle part 2 that is offset by a neck section 2.5.
- FIG. 1 This schematically simplified representation of the rotatable mounting of the rotary handle part 2 on the handle 5 is to be understood only as an example and is in no way intended to represent a limitation.
- Technical solutions for the rotatable mounting of a component such as the rotary handle part 2 on a second component such as the handle 5 are known.
- the flange section 2.2 can be designed as a threaded ring separately from the rest of the rotary handle part 2, unlike the one shown.
- the rotary handle part 2 then has a corresponding counter thread on the neck section 2.5.
- the collar 5.1 of the handle 5 is placed on the neck section 2.5, then the threaded ring is screwed on and, after the play has been adjusted, is connected to the neck section 2.5 in a rotationally fixed manner, e.g. welded or glued.
- a guide bore 2.3 the guide axis B of which runs transversely to the receiving bore 2.1, here at right angles to the longitudinal axis A.
- the locking element 3 is operatively connected to a spring element 4 supported on the base 2.4 of the guide bore 2.3 in such a way that the locking element 3 is pre-tensioned in the direction of the locking position.
- the wedge-like engagement section 3.2 is thus pressed into one of the recesses 1.2, as can be seen in Fig. 2.
- an actuating force F directed against the force of the spring element 4 and acting in the direction of the guide axis B represented by the block arrow, must be applied to the locking element 3 in order to press the engagement section 3.2 out of the recess 1.2 against the spring force.
- the locking element 3 which is also shown in Fig.
- the release position is reached when the shaft 1 is aligned with a cylindrical through-hole 3.1, which is formed in the locking element 3 between the wedge-like engagement section 3.2 and an actuating section 3.3.
- This actuating section 3.3 for actuating the locking element 3 by means of pressure from above extends along or parallel to the guide axis B.
- the concentric position of the longitudinal axis A with the through-hole 3.1 shown in Fig. 4 therefore refers to the release position of the locking element 3. In the locking position, the position of the longitudinal axis A would be further down in relation to the locking element 3, e.g. in the lower area of the through-hole 3.1.
- the variant of a locking element 3 in FIG. 7 also has a through hole 3.1, which, however, has a keyhole-shaped cross section with an upper round area and a lower narrow area. The upper round area of the keyhole-shaped through hole 3.1 allows the shaft 1 to pass through for assembling or disassembling the instrument 100 when the locking element 3 is arranged in the release position.
- the variant of the locking element 3 shown in FIG. 8, on the other hand, has an actuating section 3.3, but no through hole 3.1.
- This alternative actuation section 3.3 extends there perpendicular to the guide axis B (as well as perpendicular to the longitudinal axis A) from the wedge-like engagement section 3.2, so that an actuation of the locking element 3 to Release of the locking engagement can be done parallel to the guide hole 2.3 if the actuating section 3.3 extends through a parallel guide groove (not shown).
- the locking element 3 has the wedge-like engagement section 3.2, which allows play-free engagement with the shaft 1.
- a wedge is understood to mean a body in which two side surfaces converge at an acute angle, but a wedge-like shape is preferably understood to mean a prismatic body whose geometric base is a trapezoid, preferably a right-angled trapezoid.
- the wedge-like engagement section 3.2 has a trapezoidal profile, with the locking element 3 being arranged in the guide bore 2.3 in such a way that the trapezoidal profile lies in a plane spanned by the longitudinal axis A and the guide axis B or runs parallel thereto.
- the trapezoidal profile of the engagement section 3.2 is particularly clearly visible in the side views of Fig. 5 and 6 - however, the following explanations also apply, with appropriate adjustments, to the other embodiments shown in Fig. 2 to 4, 7 and 8.
- the trapezoidal profile of the engagement section 3.2 is defined by a longer base side as the base side 3.2.1 and a shorter base side as the head side 3 2.2, whereby the base side 3.2.1 is longer than the recess 1.2 in the proximal end 1.1 of the shaft 1 along the longitudinal axis A.
- the head side 3.2.2 is shorter than the recess 1.2, so that the engagement plane E (cf. Fig. 2 and 3), the length of which corresponds to the length of the recess 1.2, lies between the base side 3.2.1 and the head side 3.2.2 of the wedge-like engagement section 3.2.
- the engagement section 3.2 has a trapezoidal profile, but also the actuation section 3.3, so that the locking element 3, apart from a print head 3.4 possibly placed on the head side 3.2.4, is also trapezoidal in profile.
- the locking element 3 from Fig. 6 also has an engagement section 3.2 with a trapezoidal profile, but the actuation section 3.3 has a rectangular profile, so that the head side 3.2.4 can also serve as a print head.
- the trapezoidal profile of the wedge-like engagement section 3.2 has a rectangular trapezoidal shape, but the engagement section can have a profile that differs from the rectangular trapezoidal shape in contrast to the examples shown.
- the preferred rectangular trapezoidal shape advantageously provides a A side surface is provided as a guide side 3.2.3, which is defined by the trapezoidal leg running at right angles to the base side 3.2.1 and the head side 3.2.2.
- the guide side 3.2.3 supports the linear guidance of the locking element 3 in the guide bore 2.3.
- the other side surface is defined by the non-rectangular trapezoidal leg as an inclined side 3.2.5, which provides the adaptability of the engagement plane E to the length of the recess 1.2.
- the arrangement according to the invention of a wedge-like locking element 3 for axially fixing a shaft 1 is not limited to the rotary handle part 2.
- a locking device can also be arranged in the handle itself, for example if no rotation of the shaft relative to the handle is intended.
- Such a surgical instrument, also according to the invention is not shown, but can be transferred from the examples with the rotary handle part:
- the receiving hole for receiving the proximal shaft end is present in the housing of the handle or a sleeve arranged there. Accordingly, the guide hole for the movable wedge-like locking element is also formed in the housing of the handle.
- the present invention provides a surgical instrument 100 which has a hollow shaft 1 which defines a longitudinal axis A, a handle 5 arranged at the proximal end 1.1 of the shaft 1 and a force transmission element 6 which is mounted in the shaft 1 and which is connected on the distal side to a tool 7 and on the proximal side to the handle 5.
- the surgical instrument 100 has a coupling device for the detachable connection of the shaft 1 and the handle 5, wherein the coupling device is a locking device 10 with a locking element 3 which is movable between a locking position in which the locking element 3 is in engagement with at least one recess 1.2 at the proximal end 1.1 of the shaft 1, and a release position in which the locking element 3 is not in engagement with the recess 1.2.
- the locking element 3 has at least one wedge-like engagement section 3.2 with an engagement plane E, the length of which corresponds to a length of the recess 1.2 along the longitudinal axis A, so that the engagement section 3.2 is accommodated in the recess 1.2 up to the engagement plane E in the locking position.
