Abstract
A powered surgical handpiece system including a cutting accessory having a shaft extending along an axis and having a distal tissue working member and a proximal section. The proximal section includes retention features and a flat. The system includes a drive shaft having a bore for receiving the proximal section of the cutting accessory. A collet attached to the drive shaft includes a base, a leg, and a foot. The collet rotates with the drive shaft and the foot seats against the shaft of the cutting accessory. A lock assembly selectively moves the foot of the collet from a run state and a load state. An alignment collar has a non-circular opening such that when the flat of the shaft of the cutting accessory presses against a planar surface of the alignment collar, retention features are aligned with the foot of the collet.
