  • Publication number: 20240008907
    Abstract: Example embodiments provide traction pin assemblies, components, systems, and methods. An example traction pin in assembly comprises a pin insertable into bone tissue to stabilize the bone tissue. The traction pin comprises a shaft extending between an end of the traction pin and a tip of the traction pin. The end of the traction pin is couplable to a driver that is operable to rotate the pin. The assembly may also comprise an adapter that is couplable to the driver to axially retain the traction pin relative to the driver. The assembly may also comprise a guide that defines a passage through which a portion of the shaft of the traction pin extends and provides a surface for gripping the guide. The surface has a larger surface area than a surface of the portion of the shaft extending through the guide.

  • Patent number: 10405937
    Abstract: A cover for a rotary tool allows a non-sterile rotary tool to be used in a sterile field. The cover comprises a flexible enclosure of a sterilizable material and a rotary pass through extending through a wall of the flexible enclosure. A rotary tool within the flexible enclosure is coupled to drive an inner rotatable member on the rotary pass through. The cover prevents the tool (which may not be sterile) from coming into direct contact with anything in a sterile field.
