Abstract

See full text

A compact surgical handpiece comprises a motor energizable for moving a tool member, electric energy supply actuable for energizing the motor and a manually actuable trigger actuable to control motor operation. A motor control circuit interconnects the motor electric energy supply and trigger for running and braking the motor in response to actuation and release of the trigger. The control circuit includes a compact regulated voltage supply, a motor overcurrent limiting feature and a motor braking feature which is effective even if the operator fails to fully disconnect the electrical supply to the motor upon releasing the trigger.
