Abstract: A tool includes a working end determining device arranged in a shaft region or gripping region thereof for determining and/or detecting a working end of the tool. The working end determining device includes a writable and/or readable data storage device that stores data relating to the working end of the tool. The working end determining device provides data externally with reference to the working end of the tool for detecting the working end of the tool. The working end determining device can be a communication device that includes the data storage device and an antenna device. Alternatively, the working end determining device can be a unit integrated into the tool that is connected to an external control device via an electrical contacting. The integrated unit includes a resistor determining the working end of the tool and/or a storage device storing data with respect to the working end.

Abstract: A surgical grip for receiving a handpiece shaft for conjoint rotation therewith and/or for receiving a medical tool in such a way as to transmit torque, includes a carrier sleeve on which at least one coupling component provided for coupling the handpiece shaft is attached such that the at least one coupling component can be brought to a coupled position and to an uncoupled position in the operating state, wherein the at least one coupling component can be brought into contact with an activation unit which is arranged between the carrier sleeve and to an outer actuation sleeve, wherein a rotation securing unit present inside the actuation sleeve acts on the activation unit in a spring-biased manner in the operating state such that the activation unit is held secure against rotation relative to the carrier sleeve.
