Abstract

See full text

A method of assembling an electrosurgical instrument (1) includes the steps of forming components such as an elongate shaft (11), an electrode (2) and a base unit (3), presenting the electrode (2) to the base unit (3) such that the electrode (2) is temporarily located on the base unit (3), and applying a locking component (10), the locking component (10) holding the electrode (2) and the base unit (3) together. The locking component (10) is then secured to the elongate shaft (11) unit in such a way as to retain the electrode (2) on the base unit (3) and form the completed electrosurgical instrument. The locking component can be secured by means of a mechanical arrangement such as a bayonet fixing, or by a screw threaded connection.
