Abstract
A surgical stapling device includes a drive assembly and a tool assembly having an anvil and a cartridge assembly that is pivotably coupled to the anvil for movement between an open position and a clamped position. The cartridge assembly includes a staple cartridge and a channel member that defines a cavity that receives the staple cartridge. The channel member includes a channel lock that is positioned on a proximal portion of the channel member. The drive assembly is movable between a drive advanced position and a drive retracted position and engages the channel lock in the drive retracted position to retain the tool assembly in the open position.
