SURGICAL BAG DEVICE AND REMOTE OPERATING MECHANISM

摘要

A surgical bag device (10) is provided. The device includes a surgical bag (100) with a pocket (101) at the open top (102) and elongate biasing member (90) disposed in conjunction with the pocket and translatable between a first open position where the biasing member extends through a substantial portion of a circumference of the pocket, to a second closed position. An elongate push rod (30) with a distal end portion is fixed to the biasing member and an opposite proximal end portion operatively engaged with a movable plunger (70) within a housing. The push rod is translatable as urged by the plunger between a distal position extending the biasing member into the pocket and a proximal position withdrawing the biasing member from the pocket. The push rod comprises a plurality of longitudinally spaced teeth (36) disposed thereon, which are meshingly engagable with a plurality of teeth from a corresponding first set of teeth (54) of a pinion gear (50).
