Abstract

See full text

A multi-functional tool is provided including a drive unit and one or more operating members. Each operating member includes a plurality of coupling features configured to be coupled with a plurality of drive unit coupling features. The interaction between the drive unit coupling features and the coupling features of the operating member determines the type of planar motion in which the operating member moves relative to the drive unit when the multi-functional tool is in operation. This motion may be orbital, sagittal, or reciprocal. The motion provided by the drive unit to an operating member may be changed by replacing one operating member coupled to the drive unit with another, different operating member. In some exemplary embodiments, at least three operating member are provided and each operating member is configured to be moved with one of orbital, sagittal, or reciprocal motion.
