A lever (20) for grasping bone tissue includes a shaft (30) defining a channel (32) and having a proximal end and a distal end, a claw member (50) disposed on the distal end of the shaft for holding the bone tissue, and a rod (60) threadably received in the channel (32) and having a proximal end and a distal end. Rotation of the rod with respect to the shaft causes the rod to move substantially axially with respect to the shaft to selectively position the distal end of the rod with respect to the claw member. The lever (20) may further include a locking member to allow the rod to slide axially with respect to the shaft. Various other features which improve the functioning of the lever may be provided separately or in combination.
Cette invention concerne un levier permettant de saisir un tissu osseux. Ce levier comprend un manche d~finissant un conduit et comportant une extr~mit~ distale et une extr~mit~ proximale, un ~l~ment de griffe dispos~ sur l'extr~mit~ distale de la tige et servant ~ maintenir le tissu osseux, et une tige qui vient se visser dans le conduit et qui pr~sente une extr~mit~ proximale et une extr~mit~ distale. La rotation de la tige par rapport au manche fait se d~placer ladite tige sensiblement axialement par rapport au manche, ce qui permet de positionner l'extr~mit~ distale de la tige par rapport ~ l'~l~ment de griffe. De plus, le levier peut Útre muni d'un ~l~ment de blocage qui permet ~ la tige de coulisser axialement par rapport au manche. Ce levier peut Útre dot~ de diverses autres caract~ristiques qui, s~par~ment ou conjointement, en am~liorent le fonctionnement.
