Description : | The aural operating forceps are a metal, scissor-like instrument, with two finger grips on one end and a clamp on the other end; the instrument is made up of two main pieces of metal that are rounded on the outside and flat on the inside; these two parts are held together by a small nut and bolt at the midpoint; the finger grips are closed and oval-shaped; a metal arm extends from the bottom of each oval; the arms meet at the bend of a 45° angle, and are then connected by the nut and bolt; the bolt top has a thin, flat screwdriver groove; the nut, on the opposite side of the arms, is hexagonal; the end of the bolt is visible past the nut and a metal thread is visible; the arms continue past the nut and bolt, and as they near the clamping end, they twist and widen to form the clamp; the clamp ends with a slightly rounded point; the inside gripping edges are flat and bordered by small ridges; a shallow oval groove runs down the middle of each gripping surface. |
