Gripping handle for a surgical tool, and method and machine for producing such a gripping handle

A gripping handle (1) designed to receive a removable working bit (2) in order to form a surgical tool with the removable working bit (2), said gripping handle (1) comprising:

• a main body (3) extending along a longitudinal axis (X-X′) between a proximal end (7) and a distal end (6);
• a receiving orifice (4) formed within the main body (3) and being designed to slidingly receive the working bit (2);
• a lever (14) for blocking the sliding of the working bit (2) in the receiving orifice (4), the blocking lever (14) being rotatably mounted on the main body (3) about an axis of rotation (Y-Y′) so as to be able to tilt between:
• a blocking orientation in which said lever blocks the sliding of the working bit (2), and
• a release orientation in which it enables the sliding of the working bit (2) in the receiving orifice (4);
• and
• an elastic pivot (15, 16) by which the blocking lever (14) is rotatably mounted on the main body (3), the elastic pivot (15, 16) being designed to bring, by itself and when the blocking lever (14) is in the release orientation, the blocking lever (14) back in the blocking orientation,
• wherein the main body (3), the blocking lever (14) and the elastic pivot (15, 16) are integral with each other so as to form a one single-piece part.
