Abstract
1422414 Swab bundles JOHNSON & JOHNSON 12 Feb 1974 [12 Feb 1973] 6799/73 Heading A5R [Also in Divisions B8 and E2] A securing material passes through a bundle of surgical swabs and is provided with means for holding the swabs together. The securing material may comprise a plastics monofilament whose ends are secured to a coloured tape by knots. One end may be looped around the tape. The bundle is released by breaking the monofilament or by the knot(s) being pulled through the tape. The securing material may form a male member 10 having a pointed end 14 which is pushed through the bundle and into a female member 11 having projections 12 to engage in grooves 13 in the male member 10. The two members may be joined by a connector 17 or have rings 15 to act as swab stops. The swabs are released either by disengaging the projections or by breaking the male member. Alternatively the securing material may comprise a web foldable in to a U-shape with the arms of the U engaging opposite sides of the bundle, a metal pin extending through the bundle from one arm. Either a barbed end of the pin may engage behind an opening in the other arm, or a tongue may extend from the other arm with a barb on the end of the tongue engages in an opening in the one arm. A stack of bundles may be formed by each bundle being held by pins 36 between a securing member 34 or 35 and another securing member 35 or base 33. The members 34, 35 and bases 33 are held together by tongues 41 engaging behind ridges 40.
