JAW PIECE WITH A LAYERED CONSTRUCTION, FOR A SURGICAL INSTRUMENT

摘要

A jaw member for a tubular shafted surgical instrument includes a first branch having a first active region and a second branch having a second active region. The first branch and/or the second branch has a respective link member, and the branches are held in the axial direction. A cam support member is slideable relative to the at least one link member in the axial direction. The at least one link member and the cam support member are formed substantially planar and are arranged substantially layerlike one above the other. A corresponding jaw member can be assembled onto a tubular shaft.
