Adapter assemblies for surgical devices
An adapter assembly includes a base member, a housing, and a locking mechanism. The base member defines a longitudinal axis. The housing is rotatably secured to the base member and is rotatable in relation to the base member between a plurality of positions. The locking mechanism is supported on the housing and includes a locking member and a button. The locking member is moveable from a locked position in which a lock of the locking member is engaged with the base member to secure the housing in one of the plurality of positions to an unlocked position in which the housing is rotatable in relation to the base member. The button is positioned on the base member and is depressible to translate the locking member in a direction parallel to the longitudinal axis from the locked position to the unlocked position.
1. A surgical device comprising:
a handle;
a tool assembly; and
an adapter assembly interconnecting the handle and the tool assembly, the adapter assembly including:
a base member defining a longitudinal axis;
a housing rotatably secured to the base member, the housing rotatable in relation to the base member between a plurality of positions, rotation of the housing affecting a position of the tool assembly relative to the handle; and
a locking mechanism supported on the housing, the locking mechanism including:
a locking member moveable from a locked position in which a lock of the locking member is engaged with the base member to secure the housing in one of the plurality of positions to an unlocked position in which the housing is rotatable in relation to the base member; and
a button positioned on the base member and depressible to translate the locking member in a direction parallel to the longitudinal axis of the base member from the locked position to the unlocked position.
2. The surgical device according to claim 1 , further comprising an extension assembly including a shaft having a first end and a second end, the first end of the shaft releasably coupled to a distal end of the adapter assembly and the second end of the shaft supporting the tool assembly.
3. The surgical device according to claim 2 , wherein the shaft is curved between the first and second ends.
4. The surgical device according to claim 1 , wherein the adapter assembly includes a coupling body extending from the base member, the coupling body rotatably fixed to the housing.
5. The surgical device according to claim 1 , wherein the adapter assembly includes a coupling assembly extending proximally from the base member and releasably secured to the handle.
6. The surgical device according to claim 5 , wherein the adapter assembly includes a drive assembly that extends through the coupling assembly, the base member, and the housing, and wherein the handle engages the drive assembly to actuate the tool assembly.
7. The surgical device according to claim 6 , wherein the drive assembly includes a first connector and a second connector disposed within the coupling assembly, the first connector offset from the longitudinal axis.
