Abstract

687,644. Testing reflex actions. TORRICELLI CREATIONS, Inc. Aug. 7, 1951 [Aug. 5, 1950], No. 18582/51. Class 81 (ii). A device, for measuring the reflex movement of a limb when struck, comprises a support for the limb and an indicator for the amount of movement. The apparatus described is mounted on an adjustable tripod 23 and has a main support 41 carrying a padded frame 46 on which the limb, such as a knee, is rested. An adjustable U-shaped frame 55, mounted on the main support, carries a spring - loaded striking plunger assembly 56 and an indicator 57, in which a pointer 83 is moved round a dial 85 by gearing from an arm 93 which is thrown forward when the leg moves. The actual striking member 72 is telescopically adjustable by means of a clamping screw 73 and the tension used for the blow may be determined from graduations 75. The appliance may be set up with the frame 55 vertical when testing the response of elbows and feet.
