Abstract
The present invention is directed toward a dismantlable medical forceps system having a first grip having a movable grip part, a first force transmission element designed to transmit a first maximum force has a first connection element. A second force transmission element is designed to transmit a second maximum force greater than the first maximum force, the second force transmission element has a second connection element. The first grip has a coupling device for selectively force-fitting to the first or second connection elements of the first or second force transmission elements to the movable grip part. The first connection element has a first cross-section. The second connection element has a second cross-section different from the first cross-section. The coupling device has a first seat designed for a force-fit connection to the first connection element and a second seat designed for a force-fit connection to the second connection element.
