US Patent 11931057 Bendable handheld medical actuator

A handheld medical device with a distal implement is disclosed. The handheld rotary medical device may include an inner drive shaft, an elongated, tubular, outer housing encapsulating the inner drive shaft such that the inner drive shaft is positioned within the outer housing. The inner drive shaft may include one or more inner drive shaft bendable sections, and the outer housing may include one or more outer housing bendable sections. The inner drive shaft bendable section may be heated to anneal the material forming the inner drive shaft bendable section such that during use the inner drive shaft bendable section may be bent into a desired position and, once bent, the inner drive shaft bendable section remains in the desired position and does not bind against the elongated, tubular, outer housing.
