Abstract
An oscillating drive mechanism for a surgical tool includes a motor having a rotor, a crank assembly hub, a link secured to the crank assembly hub, a pivot shaft, a shuttle including an arcuate rack gear secured to the link so that rotation of the crank assembly hub provides reciprocating rotary motion to the arcuate rack gear about the pivot shaft. A gear is meshed with the arcuate rack gear and is secured to an output shaft, whereby rotational motion of the motor induces rotary oscillating motion to the output shaft.
