Patent ID: 8882800

Claim:
A medical instrument comprising: a tool with two pivotable jaw parts arranged on the distal end of a shank and a handle arranged on the proximal end of the shank; wherein the two pivotable jaw parts of the tool can be pivoted relative to each other independently of each other via the handle and each of the two pivotable jaw parts can be actuated via a separate drive arranged on the handle; wherein one drive is designed as a grip part which is mounted pivotably on the handle and is operatively connected to one jaw part of the tool via a first push/pull element mounted in an axially displaceable manner in the shank; and another drive is designed as an adjusting wheel which is rotatable about a longitudinal axis of the shank and is operatively connected to the other jaw part of the tool via a second push/pull element mounted in an axially displaceable manner in the shank, characterized in that the first push/pull element which is coupled to the pivotable grip part is designed as an axially displaceable push/pull rod, and in that the second push/pull element which is coupled to the adjusting wheel is designed as an axially displaceable hollow push/pull tube coaxially surrounding the push/pull rod, wherein the push/pull rod is arranged inside the hollow push/pull tube.
