  • Instrument with holding device
    Patent number: 12318230
    Abstract: An endoscopic instrument having an instrument body configured in a long, slim and flexible manner. The instrument may be completely or partly wound in one or more windings that allows the instrument to be packed in a space-saving and easy-to-handle manner. To keep the instrument body in this position, a holding device is provided that is arranged on the instrument body and is preferably undetachably held there. The holding device has a gripper rotatably supported around the instrument body. The instrument body has a latch to hold and fasten the windings.

  • Electrosurgical instrument and device with such an instrument
    Patent number: 10751106
    Abstract: The invention relates to an electrosurgical instrument, especially for argon plasma coagulation, with a handle (10), an outer shaft (12) that surrounds an electrode and/or an inner shaft (11, 111) and is held in the handle (10), and an actuation mechanism (13) on the handle (10) to move the outer shaft (12) in the axial direction relative to the electrode/to the inner shaft (11, 111). The invention is characterized in that the inner shaft and/or the electrode (11, 111) are mechanically connected with one another in a distal end area (65) of the outer shaft (12) in such a way that the inner shaft and/or the electrode (11, 111) can be bent by moving the outer shaft (12) relative to the inner shaft and/or to the electrode (11, 111).
