A clip applier includes a flexible coil with a manual actuator coupled to
one end and a jaw assembly coupled to the other end. A store of clips is
adjacent to the jaw assembly and a clip pusher is adjacent to the store
of clips. The actuator includes a lever for opening and closing the jaws,
a knob for rotating the jaw assembly, and a crank for dispensing clips.
The knob and the lever are coupled to a single control member which
extends through the coil to a joiner where it is joined to a pair of pull
wires coupled to the jaws. The crank is coupled to a second control
member which is threaded along a portion. The threaded portion engages a
threaded member coupled to the pusher such that rotation of the threaded
control member by the crank causes the pusher to be moved distally.
