2.1 Reamer Drive Extension Mechanisms - WO2022171785A1:
Key Excerpt:
"It is amongst the potential, but non-limiting aims of the present disclosure to provide a mounting system capable of transferring high levels, primarily torque, but also axial loading (compressive and tensile) to a surgical procedural element, such as a reamer. It is amongst the potential, but non-limiting aims of the present disclosure to provide a mounting system which is resistant to flexing of the mounting system and reamer when connected together. It is amongst the potential but non-limiting aims of the present disclosure to provide a connection between the mounting systems and the surgical procedural element that has a low cross-sectional profile, for instance no greater than that of the maximum cross-sectional profile of the surgical procedural instrument. It is amongst the potential, but non-limiting aims of the present disclosure to provide for an accurate and/or resilient and/or quick attachment and detachment between a mounting system and a surgical procedural element."
