A tool head has a longitudinal axis, forward and rearward ends, and top, bottom and peripheral surfaces. The peripheral surface has first and second side walls provided with respective first and second serrated portions, each of the first and second side walls being divided into spaced apart top and bottom side wall portions. The peripheral surface also has a stopper wall which faces in the rearward direction, extends transversely to the second side wall and is provided with a stopper serrated portion. A rear wall formed at the rearward end and connects the first and second side walls. The tool head also includes an insert retaining portion proximate the forward end, and a coupling portion which extends in the direction of the rearward end and includes vertically spaced apart top and bottom coupling arms separated by a coupling recess opening out to the rear wall.

A quick-release tool connecting rod is provided, including: a rod body, a quick-release mechanism and a second sleeve member. The rod body includes an inner space extending in an axial direction and a through hole communicated with the inner space. The quick-release mechanism includes a push rod received within the inner space, a locking member disposed within the through hole and a first sleeve member sleeved to the rod body. The first sleeve member is movable relative to the rod body in the axial direction to drive the push rod to move. The second sleeve member is co-movably sleeved to the first sleeve member, and the first sleeve member is partially embedded within an inner peripheral wall of the second sleeve member. The first sleeve member has a first hardness, and the second sleeve member has a second hardness which is smaller than the first hardness.

A holding apparatus/workpiece adapter apparatus arrangement includes a holding apparatus and a workpiece adapter apparatus. The workpiece adapter apparatus is positioned and fixed, with a workpiece fastened thereto, by the holding apparatus. The holding apparatus has partially cylindrical positioning elements, which engage in an associated cylindrical positioning recess and a positioning slot and position the workpiece adapter apparatus in an x and a y direction. The workpiece adapter apparatus bears by mating contact surfaces against contact surfaces of the holding apparatus and is clamped by linearly displaceable clamping elements and pressed against the contact surfaces, and thus positioned in a z direction. For clamping, clamping surfaces of the clamping elements bear against mating clamping surfaces of the workpiece adapter apparatus.

Provided is a rotary tool with a compact tip tool holding portion (80). The rotary tool is provided with a sleeve (81) attached to an output shaft (41) to switch a tip tool (70) between a fixed state and a detachable state. The output shaft (41) has a through hole (46) formed therein radially penetrating from the inside to the outside of a mounting hole thereof. The through hole (46) has a steel ball (85) provided therein such that at least a part of the steel ball (85) overlaps at least a part of a case (10). The sleeve (81) defines a first position in the outward direction of the steel ball (85), while the case (10) regulates a second position on the radially outer side of the first position.

The disclosed subject matter relates to a visual guide for aiding the surgeon in the insertion of a k-wire. The guide including a ring for receiving a guide wire, the guide wire extending from the ring parallel to the center axis of the ring; and, a ring attachment mechanism configured to attach the visual guide to a wire driver. The guide wires representing the trajectory of the k-wire in two orthogonal planes thus allowing the surgeon to free hand the insertion by visually referencing the guide wires and the actual trajectory of the k-wire within the bone.

A tool assembly includes a housing, a shaft, a spherical member, and a head. The housing defines a shaft channel. The shaft is rotatably disposed within the shaft channel and includes an exposed portion outside of the shaft channel. The exposed portion defines an engagement channel extending through an outer surface of the exposed portion. The spherical member is disposed within the engagement channel. The head is configured to be engaged with the exposed portion of the shaft. The head includes a detent configured to selectively engage the spherical member.

A tool adaptor includes a body, a sleeve slidably mounted around the body, an elastic member abutting against the body and the sleeve, and an engaging ball. The body has a connecting hole and an engaging hole. The sleeve has a pressing portion. The engaging ball is movably disposed in the engaging hole and selectively pressed by the pressing portion to enter the connecting hole and to engage with an engaging groove a tool. A size of the at least one engaging ball is configured such that when the at least one engaging ball enters the connecting hole, a clearance is formed between an outer periphery of the engaging ball and a groove bottom face of the engaging groove.

A coupling mechanism for securing a tool to a tool arm may include a housing and an engaging lock. The engaging lock may be arranged within the housing and configured for rotation by the tool arm. Rotation of the engaging lock may drive locking mechanisms partially through the housing to establish a longitudinally secured connection.

A deburring tool includes a body including a cylinder chamber having a tool holder holding hole, and an anti-rotation body holding hole; a tool holder having an anti-rotation groove and disposed in the cylinder chamber to reciprocate in the cylinder chamber; a first elastic body disposed inside the cylinder chamber to urge the tool holder toward a distal end; a cover disposed outside the body to reciprocate between a detaching position and a processing position, the cover including, a pressing surface that covers the anti-rotation body holding hole at the processing position, and a relief portion; and an anti-rotation body accommodated in the relief portion when the cover is positioned at the detaching position and the tool holder is pulled from the tool holder holding hole.

A tool-holding apparatus (70) includes an engaging member (71) for engaging a tool accessory (B) and being movably supported in axial and radial directions in a rotational-output shaft (26) having an insertion hole (81) for holding the tool accessory (B). A first biasing member (72) biases the engaging member towards engagement with the engaging member. A bit sleeve (73) is movable in the axial direction along an outer-circumferential surface of the rotational-output shaft between a blocking position at which radial outward movement of the engaging member is blocked and a permitting position at which radial outward movement of the engaging member is permitted. A second biasing member (74) biases the bit sleeve toward the blocking position. A positioning part (75) is fixed on the outer-circumferential surface of the rotational-output shaft and stops the bit sleeve at the blocking position. The bit sleeve has a projection (88), which is disposed on the forward side of the first biasing member, extends inward in the radial direction, and slidably contacts the rotational-output shaft.
