SURGICAL APPARATUS.
Application iled December l whichv will replace and he more eilicient than the plaster cast or the rigid splint formerly used. 1 lt is an especial ohjectot my iiivention,l to provide a device which will allow a change ot' the position ot' the atiected linih so as` to prevent stifleiiiiijjr ot' joints and muscles that have not heen injured. lt is also an especial object ot my invention `to Iprovide novel ineaiis for adj usting the device in a rotary direction relative to the limb so as to.\alllow the ends ot' the broken bone to be placed iii exact position tor reunion. and to provide a device Ywhich permits of the placing' of suitable packing` or padding,r lietween the frame and the broken limb. It is also an object of my invention to provide means for longitudinal adjustment ot the apparatus relative to the position of the patient. lt is alsol an object to provide the novel combination and arrangement olE parts liei'ein disclosed.

I provide suitahle supports i2 carryingine frame meiiihers l extending;` longitudinally ahove the couch on which the patient reclines. I provide a padded ringr 3 through which the leg: oi the patient is inserted as' shown in Fig. l.' yThis padded ring is provided with spaced arms 7, to which are attached the strands of a cord et which is run over the sheae 6 and attached to a weight A second ring 8 provided with suitable set screws 9 which engage the hone. Also attached to these set screws are suitable links Q5 to which in turn are attached other ropes at which extend over of 4the couch or hed and are attached to a suitable weight 5. The ring 8 provided with a plurality of eyes l0 to which are attached holt 1l that in turn are attached to eyes 12 secured to the main frame l as shown in Fig'. 1. Slidahly mounted on the horizontal frame 1 I provide suitable adjustablel slide membersef clasps 22 secured in adjusted position hy suitable set screws 93.
From each member 22 depends a hanger strap Q() having*l a buckle 21 hy means ot.
which it may be adjusted to the length deltraps 20 carry hooks 19 for detachahly set-uriner saine to eyes 19. as shown in Fig'. 8. of the semi-circular frame members 13 and i4. l provide an upper traine mem` her 13 and a lower traine memher I4 hinged to each other at l5 and reinforced hv the semi-circular brace 24. Frame 13 carries the perforated semi-circular plate 16; and frame l-l carries the j'ierfoi'ated semi-circular p'late i7. l provide a link 25 to which the weight cords 4 e.\:tendin, r to the foot of the couch ai'e attached at 27. The end 2G of link Q5 is mounted on the set screw Sl. as shown in Fig/10. A
lIn 'operation the padded ring Il is slipped ovei' the patiejits legi' to the crotch ot' the hody. 'lhe rinii' 8 is applied to a suitalile portion ot the liinl) helow the fractured portion.' the flesh heilig slitted and the pointed set screws Iset firmly on the hone. rl`here heincr a pluraliiy ol `eyes l() spaced apart on the Vini.` ti'. it may' hc adjusted in a rotary direction to the extent desired. rlhc perforated plates 16 and I7 of the l'ramcs ll and l-l respectively, support the upper and the lowci' portions of" llie lef`r ofthe patient. 'lhe hiutre1 l5 permits ol' hendiuglat the knee so that themuscles (hat are not in'- jure-l will not suil'er from lach oll use while ll`hc shift .ot position olj rlie limb from time to time wliicli Ibis derive permits prevents tbe stileniner oi joinis, The various hanger straps are independently adjustable. All parts however operare' in ronjunetion to bring about tbe result of supporting' tlie limb and stretching' i1 at the same time. The streelr ing operation is essential to preventtlie limb Yfrom becoming Asliorer after tbe bone has beeome united.
Wliai Yl elaim is` l. ln a surgical a] paratus of the elass de seribed.` the rombination oi a frame disposed above' ille eoueli of the patient. means for supportingV tbe upper portion olE tbe injured limb`r means ior sujipiirting the lower p01h- Lion of tlie injured limb. bineed means llingiedlj' eonnerii'ig said upper and lower supportingmeans, adjusiable means suspended from. the l'rame. member and by u'liieli die limb supporting" means in turn are adjustably suspended, and means for securing xsaid adjustable means in the desiredl adjusted position longitudinally of the frame member. l
ln a surgical apparaius of the class described, the combination of a frame disposed above alle eoueli or' the patient, independent means 'for supporting the lower, portion of the injured limb, means liingedly connecting ne aforesaid elements to permit of movement oi the joint` of the patiens injured limb, means 4for adjustably suspending ibo upper limb supporting means -from the frame, independent means for adjug-nbly suspending the loWeil limb supporting 'means from the frame, means for adjustably securing` the suspending elemens on the frame, and a plurality of weighted means mounted on the patients limb above and below the fraetured port-ion for stretching vune during` convalescence.
3. As a new article of manufacture for an apparatus ol. the class described, the. combination or' a metal frame member, a semicircular perforated plate secured to same, a second frame memberv` a semi-circular per- `lorated metal plate secured to same, hinge means Connecting said frames.
el. In an apparatus of the class described, the combination of a 'frameidisposed above the eonel` of the patient, independent means for su pporting' the lower portion 'of the inj ured limb, means liingediyconnecting the aforesaid elements to permit of movement of the joint of the patiens injured limb, means ior adjustablj' suspending the upper limb supporting means from the frame, independent means for adjusts-bly suspending the lower limb supporting means from the frame, means for adjustably securing the suspending' elements on the, frame, a. plurality oi? weighted means mounted on the patients limb above and below lie fractured portion for stretching seme during convalescence, and serl screws in the binge means adjustably engaging the bone.
