Abstract
ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE
A holder to hold and support a stop cock manifold above a floor. The holder is of solid rectangular shape having a longitudinal channel open at both ends and defining two upright side flanges. One of the flanges has a fastening means to fixedly hold the manifold in the channel. The other flange is formed with a middle opening to receive an outwardly transversely projecting ripple of the manifold. The holder is supported by a support means which can be partially disassembled for sterilization purposes.

FIELD OF ~IE INVENTION
. . _ The present invention rel&tes to medical acceasorles, more sp~cifically to a novel support for seop cock manifolds used, for example, ln operating roo~s.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
. . _ . . . _ _ , . . .
Stop cock manifolds are basically conduit relays used to dlrect and channel the flow of various fluid3 between supportive ~edical machinery and a patient on the operating table. Till now, the hoses connected to stop cock manifolds and the manifolda themselve~ have simply lain on the operating room floor or extended in mid-air, thereby constituting a physical hazard to the patlent.
OBJECTS OF THE INVENTION
Accordingly, it i8 the 8i~ of this invention to provld~ a ~top cock manifold holder which will effectively and 3ecurely support at least one stop cock manifold in a readily acce~sible positlon above the floor o an opera~ing room~
It is a corollary ob~ect of the pre~ent invention to provide a stop cock manifold holder whlch can be partially dismantled for sterlliz-ation purposPs.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
In general, the invention i8 compri~ed of a holder for a ~top cock manifold, whLch holder i8 in the shape of a rectangular block havlng a longitudinal channel open at both ends, which i8 dimensio~ally ~lightly larger than the manifold body. The channel deflne~ two upr~ght side flanges. One of the flange~ ha~ a manifold fastening me&n~ to tightly but removably hold a manlfold in place in the channel. The opposlte side flange is formed with an aperture adapted to receive o~e o~ the nipples of the manifold, the nipple projecting transversely outwardly.
Support means for the holder are provldedt in comblnation to support the latter above the floor, con~i3ting oi a rigid rod ~ecured to the bottam ~urface of the holder. The rod is fixed at lts lower .... .

threadedly engaged in flange 14. The free end of shaft 20' protrudea through the Lnner side of flange 14 and i8 iitted wi~h a plastic pad 20"
to firmly abut the side of manLfold 18 while preventing dam~ge to the latter.
Preferably, the circumferential ed8e of knob 20 is sarrated to afford a better grip.
The other flange 16 is provided with a middle opening 22 whlch is adapted to receive one of the nipple~t 18' of manlfold 1~, a~ best seen in Fi~ure~ 2 and .~, openlng 22 e~tends below the floor of chan~el 12 and is co-formed with a transver~e groove 12' made in the floor of channel 12 to accomodate the downward protuberance 18" of a standard stop cock 18"' of the manifold. The latter ha~ a generally rectangul~r body provlded with a plurality of nipples 18~ and stop cock~ 18"' as i8 known.
The support mean~ for each holder 10 comprises a short rod 24 rigidly flxed to the bottom of the holder at one end and to a rigid horizontal stem 26 at it~ other end.
The inner end of 8 tem 26 is in~ertable into a rAdial hole made in an annulus 2B. The attachmene means thereat consist o~ a tightening screw 30 thre~dedly ex~Pnding into ~nnulus 28 in a non-radi~l manner~ which screw 30 tighteningly ~ontacts stam 26.
