Both the cleaning head and the mill head are designed to be connected to the base unit. Both the brush and the milling element have feature parts to facilitate the connection to the motor. When the cleaning head is attached to the base unit, the motor in the base unit rotates the brush to clean the bone. When the mill head is attached to the base unit, a base unit motor operates the milling element to convert the cleaned bone to bone chips.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 47 |
