A surgical forceps includes a forceps jaw, with a handle consisting of two grip parts with which the one first grip part is connected to a forceps housing and the other second grip part is pivotable for opening and closing the jaw mouth, with an adjustment rod which is distally and proximally adjustable for opening and closing the jaw mouth and whose proximal end has a connection to a limb of the two limbed second grip part, and with at least one would spring element as an overload protection against the breakage of jaw parts. A particularly effective overload protection, a simple forceps construction and a small constructional size of the forceps are achieved according to the invention in that the spring element consists of a flat material wound in a serpentine manner with windings lying in one plane.

The surgical forceps of claim 1, wherein said windings of said at least one spring element include limbs connected by webs, thereby defining a free space in the windings, and wherein adjacent ones of said limbs of said at least one spring element diverge or converge toward said free space. 12. The surgical forceps of claim 1, wherein said at least one spring element comprises at least two spring elements connected in parallel. 13. The surgical forceps of claim 12, further comprising joint pins connected to said adjustment rod and said limb of said second grip part, wherein said at least two spring element each comprise two ends and a knuckle eye formed at each of said two ends of said at least two spring elements and said joint pins are respectively received in said knuckle eyes for connecting said adjustment rod to said limb of said second grip part. 14. The surgical forceps of claim 7, further comprising joint pins connected to said adjustment rod and said limb of said second grip part, wherein said at least one spring element comprises at least two sprin g elements connected in parallel and each of said at least two spring elements comprises two ends and a knuckle eye formed at each of said two ends, said joint pins being respectively received in said knuckle eyes for connecting said adjustment rod to said limb of said second grip part. 15. The surgical forceps of claim 12, wherein said windings of said at least two spring elements include limbs connected by webs, thereby defining a free space in the windings between each pair of adjacent limbs, and wherein adjacent ones of said limbs of said at least one spring element diverge or converge toward said free space. 16. The surgical forceps of claim 12, wherein said windings of a first spring element of said at least two spring elements are offset relative to said windings of a second spring element of said at least two spring element arranged directly adjacent to said first spring element by one half of a width of said windings. 17. The surgical forceps of claim 1, wherein recesses are defined in said forceps housing and said limb of said second grip part for receiving said at least one spring element. 18. The surgical forceps of claim 1, wherein said at least one spring element is made of a material comprising spring steel. 19. The surgical forceps of claim 1, wherein said at least one spring element is made of a material comprising a TiNi alloy. 20. The surgical forceps of claim 1, wherein said at least one spring element is cut from a metal plate using a laser cutting method. 21. The surgical forceps of claim 1, wherein said at least one spring element is punched from a metal plate. 22. The surgical forceps of claim 1, wherein said at least one spring element is made from a metal plate using an erosion method.
