Abstract:
Certain aspects relate to a handle mechanism that permits control of linear motion of a shaft secured within the handle via two different interfaces for actuating the linear motion. In some aspects, a rotational interface can allow for fine control linear positioning of the shaft, for example by allowing a user to rotate the rotational interface to extend or retract the shaft. In some aspects, a plunging interface can enable a faster linear motion, for example by implementing a biasing mechanism that releases to drive rapid linear motion.

Claim (Index 22):
The apparatus of  claim 20 , further comprising:\n a proximal handle member; and a rotational motion transmitting interface coupling the proximal handle member to the actuation sleeve and configured to translate rotational motion of the actuation sleeve into linear motion of the proximal handle member along the longitudinal axis of the handle, wherein the rotational motion transmitting interface coupling the proximal handle member to the actuation sleeve is further configured to transmit the linear movement of the actuation sleeve to the proximal handle member.
