Description

H. MALM Nov. 24, 1953 DEVICE FOR SUPPORTING AND ACTUATING HYPODERMIC SYRINGES Filed Oct. 10, 1951 INVENTOR HENRY MHLM Patented Nov. 24, 1953 UNITED STATES NT OFFECE DEVICE FOR SUPPORTING AND ACTUATING HYPODERMIC SYRINGES 7 Claims.
This invention relates to'devices for supporting and operating hypodermic syringes and the like in the operation of iniecting a fluid into the body. More particularly, the invention deals with a device including means for gripping or pinching the flesh for positioning the device on the body, preparatory to quickly injecting the needle of the syringe into the pinched area. Still more particularly, the invention deals with a device of the character described, wherein the syringe is supported in raised position under tension and is quickly released by means of a trigger facilitating a fast movement of the needle into the body.
The novel features of the invention will be best understood from the following description, when taken together with the accompanying drawing, in which certain embodiments of the invention are disclosed and, in which, the separate parts are designated by suitable reference characters in each of the views and, in which:
Fig. 1 is a side view of a device made according to my invention, diagrammatically illustrating the method of its use and indicating the syringe of the device in operative position in dot-dash lines.
Fig. 2 is a view looking in the direction of the arrow 2 of Fig. l on an enlarged scale and with part of the construction broken away and in section.
Fig. 3 is a partial section on the line 33 of Fig. 2.
Fig. 4 is a sectional plan view on the line A- l .of Fig. 1; and
Fig. 5 is a fragmentary view of part of the device in Fig. 1 showing a modification.
In Fig. 1 of the drawing, I have shown one of my improved syringe supporting and operating devices iii, in which a conventional syringe H is detachably mounted. The syringe comprises a lower tube 12, having a detachable nozzle l3, at its lower end, which supports the needle hi. The tube i2 has, at its upper open end, an enlarged flange it which is flattened on opposed sides, as seen at It, note Fig. 4. Supported in the tube 52 is the conventional plunger ll controlling discharge of medication through the needle I4.
The device it) comprises an elongated tubular body or casing having a large diameter upper end it, the large diameter lower collar l9 and an intermediate smaller diameter portion 29. Extending through this tubular body is a bore which freely and snugly receives the tube [2, as will clearly appear from a, consideration of Fig. 3 of the drawing.
The upper enlarged diameter portion ill of the tubular body has, at opposed sides thereof, an upper extension 22 and a lower extension 23 and in these parts are formed vertical passages 24, note Fig. 2, having ring plugs 25 at the upper ends thereof. In these passages are disposed pins 26, having heads 27 at their lower ends operating upon coil springs 28, the pins carrying outwardly of the plugs 25 catch devices 29, having bevelled surfaces 30.
Sufiicient clearance will be provided in the ring plugs to facilitate slight radial movement of the catch devices 29 when the flange I5 is moved over the bevelled surfaces 38 in snapping the flange [5 of the tube 12 into engagement with these devices and, by rotating the tube 90, the flat sides l6, note Fig. 4, can be moved into position to clear the catch devices in the operation of removing the syringe from the holder.
At 35 are shown spring fingers soldered, as seen at 32, to upper end portions 33 of a pair of spring tongs or body grippers 34 secured by screws 35 in vertically grooved portions in the enlarged diameter portion [8. The screws 35 have long collar portions 36, note Fig. 3, on which the tongs 34 are free to move as these tongs are manually operated against the action of the spring fingers 3| which tend to normally move the tongs away from each other.
At one side of the reduced portion 28 of the tubular body are a pair of apertured ears 3'! in which a trigger catch 38 is pivotally mounted. The catch has a fingerpiece or operating end 39 which extends through an aperture 40 in the adjacent tong 34, this aperture being sufiiciently long to also receive a trigger pin or catch device ll, as seen clearly in Fig. 3 of the drawing.
The pin 4! operates in an aperture 42 of the flange i9 and is adapted to seat under the lower portion I2 of the tube H2 or where this tube joins the reduced end 43 thereof, with which the nozzle i3 is coupled. This pin holds the entire syringe in the raised position, as later described. The pin 4| has an annular groove 45, note Fig. 3, and the trigger catch 38 has a forked end operating in the groove 46 to control movement of the pin d! into inoperative position.
The catch has an offset shoulder 46 which is adapted to overlie the flange I9 and is held in this position by a spring 41 fixed to the fingerpiece end 39 of the catch 38 and operating upon the reduced portion 20 of the body.
From the foregoing description, it will be apparent that, after a syringe has been filled with the desired fluid to be injected into the body, the
syringe is placed in the device by simply snapping the flange l5 over the catch devices 29 so that the flanges are arranged beneath these devices, or lugs, as shown in Fig. 2. Then the syringe is pulled upwardly against the action of the springs 28 until the pin dl automatically springs under the portion [2 of the tube I 2. The spring 41 operates tomove the trigger patch ,38 andpin M in this operation.
The device is now ready for use and the oper ator grasps the tongs 34 and places the lower roughened ends 34' of the-tongson the :flesh-bf the body and then moves the tongsztowardazach other against the action of the springs 31, so as to pinch or squeeze the flesh and raise-'a por'tion thereof, as diagrammatically seenatABJn Fig. 1 between the ends 34 of the tongs, whereupon, a finger of the hand gripping and grasping the tongs can be utilized to :actuate the trigger catch 533130 pressithe fingerpieceraendidfl imvardiyithus withdrawing the 11in i-J {to release :the syringe. The springs :28 :will then suddenly :advance the needle :h'i .of "the ssyringe unto the raised portion HEB,iasfindicatediinidot zandda'shilinesiin Fig. 1,
awhereupon, theplungerflil can be unoved 'downwardly to "inject tthefluid into the body.
iSuitable rshoci; absorbing means .is :*preferably proVided atthe:uppensurface of *theenla-rged 'end I8 of the tubular body.and:.in;alinement with'the fiange:i5'oi:the syringe, as illustrated by oircumierentia'lly spa'ce'cl iru'bber rbumpers i 9 {to prevent damage :to the syringe in the :rapid downward imcvement thereof.
InFFig. -5 of :the drawing'iI have shown merely the lowerend portion' of the 'tongs 'ii of a device as Shown in Fig. :1, but illustrating a modified :lower end=construction including inwardly 'proje'cting stop members-cr mes, E0 adaptedtdlimit the upward movement of the' pinched flesh. The stop members fili'thus provide means for accu- '-rately orienting'or positioning the pinched'flesh --with respect to the retracted needle or the syringe, and for-controlling the degree pr penetnatio'n of the 'fiesh in the downward movement of the syringe avhen released byactuation 0f the trigger'-3-9. This element of control is particularlyimportant in instances'where, due to-ageor illness, the flesh may be softer-flabby.
Devices'o'f' the hind underconsideration can be -utilized in administering-many types-of injection into the body and are particularly desirable for use by individuals who-periodically find the need 'Pforfinjectingin'sulin 'orthelike int-oth-e'body. It "will be understood that, by reason of the pinching or'squeezing action'upon the fiesh,-a slight amount of feeling is attributed to this operation which, in turn, "minimizes the feeling and eases the operation of-piercingtheineedle I 4 into'the "flesh.
An outstanjdingiadvantage Of my .device is that it enables aperson to sewa'dministeriiniections in areas of the body which wereheretoforeinac- .cessible withoutthe .assistancen'f .another person. It will be .noted that lthis .advantage 'is .directly attributable .to my ;n0.ve1 combination ofa'fiesh pinching and positioning means with a trigger actuatedisyringesupportingandadvancing.mech- :anism. Inthis-cQnnection, 'it.is to be understood that the particulanmanner .of. mounting the tong .members .onthe device..as;shown in thedrawing is merely illustrativeof myinvention and is not .tobe construedas limiting the same. ,Any, pivotal -orresilient supporting means 'mayfbe employed which will provide .anormally spaced relationship of the tong ends and will permit movement oi. the tong ends toward each other in a common plane as the tongs are actuated to grasp or pinch a portion of flesh.
