Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	An orthopedic impactor device for positioning an orthopedic prosthetic cup implant during a hip replacement surgery is described. The impactor comprises a distal prosthetic cup engagement portion which is separated from a proximal strike plate by an elongated housing and handle. The housing has a length that extends from a proximal housing portion to a distal housing end with an intermediate housing section therebetween. The intermediate housing section comprises spaced right and left side walls that extend upwardly from a bottom wall to an upper opening. A drive train, comprising a connection rod connectable to an orthopedic prosthetic cup, at least partially resides within the elongated housing. The drive train comprises a linkage sub-assembly that transfers rotational movement of a shaft located at the drive shaft proximal end to the connection rod.
