ABSTRACT:
A mounting apparatus of the present invention is used in a medical environment to releasably secure a device to a support member. The mounting apparatus has a flexible shaft with a first end for releasable attachment to the support member and a second end for releasable attachment to the device. A generally C-shaped clamping member at the first end releasably attaches the apparatus to the support member. The clamping member has an inner surface, an outer surface, and at least two apertures including a first aperture through which a securing rod passes and a second aperture for releasable attachment of the flexible shaft. The present invention is also directed to a powered medical device assembly having a medical device and a flexible shaft capable of selective mounting of the medical device on a support.
