Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to adapter assemblies for use with and to electrically and mechanically interconnect electromechanical surgical devices and surgical loading units, and to surgical systems including hand held electromechanical surgical devices and adapter assemblies for connecting surgical loading units to the hand held electromechanical surgical devices.

Claim (Index 2):
A surgical instrument comprising:\n a drive shaft including a proximal portion and a distal portion, the proximal portion of the drive shaft defining a longitudinal axis, the drive shaft being rotatable about the longitudinal axis; a bearing assembly disposed in mechanical cooperation with the drive shaft such that rotation of the draft shaft about the longitudinal axis longitudinally translates the bearing assembly relative to the drive shaft; and a housing assembly configured to limit the distal portion of the drive shaft from moving away from the longitudinal axis, the housing assembly including:\n a first plate defining a first aperture therethrough, a portion of the drive shaft extending through the first aperture; \n a second plate positioned distally of the first plate and defining a second aperture therethrough, a portion of the drive shaft extending through the second aperture; and \n at least one rod interconnecting the first plate and the second plate.
