Publication number: 20220071639Abstract: A power supply unit for a surgical instrument operated by an electric motor includes a battery-receiving housing separate and spaced apart from the surgical instrument. A fastening means or retainer fastens or retains the power supply unit to a body part of an operator. At least one power supply unit supplies power to at least one motor system. A control and monitoring device performs and/or monitors at least one function. A cable connection connects a cable for electrically coupling the power supply unit to a surgical instrument for operating the motor system thereof and/or for transmitting data and/or operating parameters.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 20, 2019Publication date: March 10, 2022Inventors: Roland-Alois Högerle, Uwe Mattes

Patent number: 10590996Abstract: A medical handle for pneumatically or hydraulically driven medical instruments or motor units includes a clutch member for mechanical and pneumatic/hydraulic coupling of a corresponding clutch member and a manually operable valve mechanism for selective pressurization of a medical instrument coupled thereto or the motor unit thereof, the valve mechanism being provided with a safety device for preventing pressurization in the case of an uncoupled medical instrument or the motor unit thereof. The clutch member present on the side of the handle is provided to interact with the valve mechanism such that during or by the mechanical coupling operation the latter is automatically opened and/or enabled for manual opening, whereas in the uncoupled state the valve mechanism is closed and/or enabling is cancelled.Type: GrantFiled: December 23, 2015Date of Patent: March 17, 2020Assignees: Aesculap AG, Rotomed AGInventors: Wolfgang Heine, Edgar Blust, Thomas Müller, Frederick Lenzenhuber, Anette Hildebrand, Simone Hermle, Uwe Mattes

Patent number: 8328814Abstract: A surgical guiding instrument for a surgical machining tool has a substantially elongated instrument body having a proximal end and a distal end and defining a longitudinal axis. The instrument body carries a guiding device for the machining tool that can be used in minimally invasive surgery. The guiding device is arranged and constructed so as to enable the machining tool to be positively guided by it along a path of movement defined by the guiding device. The path of movement corresponds to a superimposed translational-pivotal movement.Type: GrantFiled: May 19, 2008Date of Patent: December 11, 2012Assignee: Aesculap AGInventors: Susanne Klingseis, Kay Fischer, Uwe Mattes
