A motor-driven orthopedic impacting tool is provided for orthopedic impacting in the hips, knees, shoulders and the like. The tool is capable of holding a broach, chisel, or other end effector, which when gently tapped in a cavity with controlled percussive impacts, can expand the size or volume of an opening of the cavity or facilitate removal of the broach, implant, or other surgical implement from the opening. A stored-energy drive mechanism stores potential energy and then releases it to launch a launched mass or striker to communicate a striking force to an adapter in either a forward or reverse direction. The tool may further include a combination anvil and adapter and an energy adjustment mechanism to adjust the striking force the launched mass delivers to the adapter in accordance with a patient profile.

An impact mechanism for an impact tool having a housing with a housing longitudinal axis, wherein the impact mechanism includes an impact mechanism longitudinal axis that is offset and substantially perpendicular to the housing longitudinal axis. The impact mechanism includes a gear carrier adapted to be driven by a motor of the impact tool to rotate about the impact mechanism longitudinal axis, a hammer slidably coupled to the gear carrier and rotatable about the impact mechanism longitudinal axis, the hammer includes a radial surface with a hammer lug extending therefrom, and an intermediate bit adapted to receive impact force from the hammer lug and transfer impact force to a tool bit.

A rotary impact tool including a housing, a motor, a gear assembly, and a drive assembly. The motor includes a shaft configured to rotate about an axis. The gear assembly is operably coupled to the motor. The drive assembly is configured to convert continuous torque received from the shaft through the gear assembly into periodic rotational impacts upon a workpiece. The drive assembly includes a camshaft, an anvil, a hammer, and a thrust bearing. The camshaft is operably coupled to the gear assembly. The anvil is positioned adjacent to a forward end of the camshaft. The hammer is configured to reciprocate along the camshaft to impart rotational impacts to the anvil in response to rotation of the camshaft. The thrust bearing is engaged with the camshaft such that the thrust bearing is configured to at least partially support the camshaft in an axial direction.
