Remote controlled device for tool rotating

Abstract

A remote-controlled device for rotating tools, preferably medical tools, comprising a hollow body (1) which is embodied in the form of pivotally connected proximal and distal parts (2, 6) provided with a pair of adjacent end surfaces (5, 5′) which are angularly disposed with respect to the longitudinal axis of the body (1), and an axis (7) which is perpendicularly oriented with respect to the end surfaces (5, 5′) and provided with a central channel and a remote control mechanism. A shaft (10) arranged in the central channel of the device comprises driven, driving and transmitting sections (11, 12, 13) respectively, and operates as a link for transferring working rotational motion at a variable angle. The tilt angle between the distal part (6) and the longitudinal axis of the proximal part (2) can be equal to 180°.
