Patent ID: 8377085

Claim:
An ultrasonic surgical assembly comprising: an ultrasonic-movement-generator assembly having a shell and an ultrasonic-driving-wave-signal generating circuit housed within the shell; a cordless ultrasonic transducer having a proximal end and an ultrasonic-movement-producing distal end; an ultrasonic waveguide having a proximal end for receiving ultrasonic movement thereat; a handle body having: a waveguide attachment dock operable to accept the waveguide therein; an ultrasonic-movement-generator assembly dock operable to selectively removably secure the ultrasonic-movement-generator assembly thereto; and a transducer attachment dock operable to substantially simultaneously: selectively removably and rotatably freely couple the ultrasonic transducer to the handle body rotationally independent of the ultrasonic-movement-generator assembly; and axially align the ultrasonic-movement-producing distal end opposite the proximal end of the ultrasonic waveguide when the ultrasonic waveguide is disposed within the waveguide attachment dock; and wherein the ultrasonic transducer is operable to dynamically produce a resonant wave along the ultrasonic waveguide when the ultrasonic transducer is excited by the ultrasonic-driving-wave-signal generating circuit.
