Fig. 9 is a view similar to Fig. 8 and illustrating yet another modified construction.
Referring now in detail to the drawing, IU designates an upper bottle, I I a lower bottle, and numeral I 2, apparatus for transferring liuuld from the upper bottle to the lower bottle. The apparatus I2 comprises a clamp I3 for supporting the bottles I0 and II in opposed relation, a transfer mechanism I4 interconnecting the bottles, in the manner hereinafter appearing, and a hypodermic svringe I 5 connected to the mechanism I4 for eiiecting the transfer. Each of the bottles I Il and I I has a cap 2n provided with a diaphragm 2l adapted to be pierced by a hvpodermic needle.
The clamp I3 comprises a Wall bracket 23 hav ing flanges 24 contacting the wall and formed with openings to receive screws 25y for attaching the bracket to said wall. Extending from flanges 24 are side walls 26 disposed at right angles thereto and interconnected by a web 21. Web 21 -is formed with a cutout or opening 28. Mounted on the wall bracket 23 is a bracket member 30 comprising a flat plate 3| adapted to be inserted through opening 28 and thus slidably moved downwardly so as to be disposed between the web 21 and the wall to which the bracket is attached. Extending from the upper end of 4plate 3l is a horizontal arm 32. Integrally formed with the latter is a vertical rod 3114 having an upwardly extending arm 35 and a downwardly extending arm 36. Rotatably mounted on arm-35 is a rod 31 formed with an eye 38 at one end to receive .said arm. A set screw 40 serves to fix the rod 31 in vertically and angularly adjusted positions. At the outer end of rod 3l is a pivot pin il to which are pivoted a pair of similar, symmetrically disposed spring clamps t2. Each clamp l2 has a curved portion 43 adapted to engage the neck of the bottle and rearwardly and downwardly extending handle M. Disposed about pivot pin 4I and engaging the handles i4 is a torsion spring 45 adapted to normally separate the handles so that portions i3 will resiliently clamp the neck of the bottle. Rotatably mounted on the lower end of ar 36 is a bottle clamp member similar to the clamp 31, 42 but symmetrically disposed thereto. The handles i4 of the lower clamping member therefore extend upwardly toward the handles le of the upper clamp member. With such construction, the handles 44 of the two clamp members are located close to each other and may be pressed together simultaneously so as to release vthe bottles. It will'be noted that the upper clamp cylindrical wall 53 is a tubular stem 5s provided with a flaring mouth 55. The lower wall 52 is formed with a through opening Extending into said opening 56 and xed therein is the upper end of a tubular hypodermic needle 5l.
Needle4 5l exten-ds downwardly from chamber 5t.
It is formed with an intermediate hole or openlng 58 for Vthe purpose hereinafter appearing. The upper wall 5| is formed with a through opening 59. Extending therethrough is a hypodermic needle thinner than needle 5l. The needle Sli is xed within opening 59. The upper end of said needle 60 is pointed as at 52. Said'needle 60 extends through the chamber 5t and passes into the thicker needle 51 in concentric, spaced relation thereto. The lower end G4 of needle 6b is preferably disposed below opening 58 but above the lower pointed end 51a of needle 5l.
The hypodermic syringe l5 comprises a barrel vformed with the usual tapered tip l! which is inserted into the ilaring opening 55 of stem 54. Within the barrel 1l! is a usual plunger l2.
The transfer of liquid'from the upper bottle lil to the lower bottle l I will now be described. The thick needle 51 is pushed into the lower empty bottle through the diaphragm 2l of its cap si?. The upper end of needle 5e is pushed through the diaphragm 2l of the cap 2li of the upper bottle. The plunger l?. is pushed forwardly to closed position. and then the tip 'H is inserted into opening 55. Liquid Ais in the upper bottle and is to be transferred to the lower bottle which is empty. The'plunger l2 is then pulled out gently to draw air from the lower bottle through the opening 58, through the chamber 5l), and into the syringe, thereby creating a partial vacuum or lreducing pressure in the lower bottle, and caus ing liquid in the upper bottle to flow through the thin needle into the lower bottle. The plunger is then pushed to cause 'air inY the syringe to pass through the chamber 50 and up through the thin needleto the upper bottle. Air is thus transferred from the lower bottle to the upper bottle and liquid from the upper bottle to the lower bottle.
The procedure is repeated until all the liquid is transferred from the upper bottle to the lower vthrough the side diaphragms 32.
bottle. The advantages of the above described apparatus is simplicity and rapidity of manipulation. Furthermore, sterility is maintained because no outside air enters during the transfer.
in Figs. 6 and '7 there is shown a modified construction o bottle cap. The bottle caps 20a shown in Figs. 6 and '7 may be made of rubber and each comprises a cylindrical Wall 'Sil which may be attached to the neck of the bottle in any suitable manner. The cylindrical wall may thus be formed with an annular groove 8l to receive the upper end of the bottle neck. The cylindrical wall Se is formed with a thin diaphragm 82 at one side. Said bottle cap is also formed with a thin diaphragm 33 at the top. With such construction, the needles may be inserted either through the top diaphragme 33 or the side diaphragms @2. Thus in Figs. 6 and 7 the mechanism i4 is shown applied by piercing the needles The needles are thus in horizontal position and the bottles may be supported by the same clamp or holder as shown in Fig. 1.
ln Fig. 8 there is shown a modified form of transfer mechanism. The transfer mechanism ida shown in Fig. 8 is similar to transfer mechanism Mi except as described hereinafter. The mechanism Ilia comprises a chamber a formed with a bottom wall 52a, similar to chamber Eil, and its wall 52, as illustrated in Fig. 2. Wall 52a however is formed with a tubular projection 85 having an externally screw threaded portion 86. Extending from portion 85 is a tapered portion el'. Mounted on said portion 81 is a hypodermic needle 51h. The needle 5'lb has, at its base, a :daring or tapered portion @El contacting the external surface of the tapered portion 8l and complementary thereto.
.ii/leans is provided to releasably attach the needle Bib to the tapered portion El. To this end there is screwed onto the threaded portion 55% a sleeve @i having an internally tapered portion Q2 contacting the daring portion et of the needle for pressing the same against said tapered lportion 8l'. It will now be understood that should the needle break it may be easily replaced by a new needle.
In Fig. 9 there is shown a still further modified form of transfer mechanism. In Fig. 9 there is shown transfer mechanism ith comprising a chamber Sie?) having a wall 52h. Extending from wall is a tubular hub portion 93 formed at its outer end with a reduced portion @d provided with an outwardly flaring mouth 95'. Inserted into the reduced portion @il is the lower or base end of a needle Sie. The lower end of the needle is swedged to the reduced portion 94. Flexing or bending of the needle is permitted due to the outwardly daring mouth 95.
The surgeon is confronted with a problem for it is net uncommon for the needle to break during an injection. The break is usually in the area where the needle is swedged to the hub. This area is the weakest portion of the needle due to pressure exerted on that area during swedging. Removing the broken needle from the tissue is a problem and very often the cause for law suits. IThe construction shown in Fig. 9 is applicable to hypcde1.-ic needles used for injections and with such construction when the needle is accidentally bent the flare Will brace the needle so that the needle will bend but not break.
It will thus be seen that there is provided a device in which the several objects of this invention are achieved, and which is well adapted to meet the conditions of practical use.
As various Ypossible embodiments might be made of the above invention, and as various changes might be made in the embodiment above set forth, it is to be understood that all matter herein set forth or shown in the accompanying drawing is to be interpreted as illustrative and not in a limiting sense.
