A loading unit detection assembly for use with a surgical device configured for selective engagement with a loading unit, the loading unit detection assembly comprising: a detection link configured to be engaged by a loading unit; and a switch button disposed proximally of the detection link; wherein engagement between the loading unit and the loading unit detection assembly causes the detection link to proximally translate with respect to the loading unit and causes the switch button to become engaged, and wherein engagement of the switch button causes an electronic communication with a portion of the surgical device to permit actuation thereof; characterized by: a switch pin disposed in mechanical cooperation with the detection link and adjacent the switch button; a switch link disposed between the switch pin and the detection link, the switch pin being longitudinally translatable with respect to the switch link; a first biasing element disposed coaxially with switch pin, the first biasing element being disposed between a proximal portion of the switch link and an enlarged diameter portion of the switch pin, the switch button being at least partially housed by a switch housing, and wherein the loading unit detection assembly further comprises a retraction pin disposed at least partially between the switch housing and a portion of the switch link, and a second biasing element disposed coaxially with the retraction pin and configured to exert a distal force against the switch link. a detection link configured to be engaged by a loading unit; and a switch button disposed proximally of the detection link; wherein engagement between the loading unit and the loading unit detection assembly causes the detection link to proximally translate with respect to the loading unit and causes the switch button to become engaged, and wherein engagement of the switch button causes an electronic communication with a portion of the surgical device to permit actuation thereof; characterized by: a switch pin disposed in mechanical cooperation with the detection link and adjacent the switch button; a switch link disposed between the switch pin and the detection link, the switch pin being longitudinally translatable with respect to the switch link; a first biasing element disposed coaxially with switch pin, the first biasing element being disposed between a proximal portion of the switch link and an enlarged diameter portion of the switch pin, the switch button being at least partially housed by a switch housing, and wherein the loading unit detection assembly further comprises a retraction pin disposed at least partially between the switch housing and a portion of the switch link, and a second biasing element disposed coaxially with the retraction pin and configured to exert a distal force against the switch link. a switch pin disposed in mechanical cooperation with the detection link and adjacent the switch button; a switch link disposed between the switch pin and the detection link, the switch pin being longitudinally translatable with respect to the switch link; a first biasing element disposed coaxially with switch pin, the first biasing element being disposed between a proximal portion of the switch link and an enlarged diameter portion of the switch pin, the switch button being at least partially housed by a switch housing, and wherein the loading unit detection assembly further comprises a retraction pin disposed at least partially between the switch housing and a portion of the switch link, and a second biasing element disposed coaxially with the retraction pin and configured to exert a distal force against the switch link.
