X-RAYFILM HOLDER;
Application led' December 9, 1921, Serial No. 521,179.
To all 1li/0m t may concern: v
Be it known that I, ALBERT HALLENBERG, a citizen of the United States, anda resident of Fargo, in the county of Cass and State of VNorth Dakota., have invented certain new and useful. Improvements in X- Ray-Film Holders, of whichthefollowing is a specification. i'
My invention Arelates generally to X-ray apparatus, more particularly to devices for supporting an X-ray film or plate in desired positions, and it consists in the combina` tions, constructions and arrangements here in described and-claimed..v
An object of my inventionis to provide a device having means for .holding a film in a desired position withinthe mouth of a patient and for indicating to the operator the exact position of the'ilm in the mouth,
whereby the rays cany be sodirected that the shadow east on the film will conform in contour to the selected object or portion of the body which is opaque to the rays.
A. further object of my'invention is to provide means having members relatively arranged for gripping a portion of the body to position a. film as desired, and'mea-ns for yieldingly and releasably maintaining such members in gripping position.
A further object of my invention is to provide a device of simplified construction for attaining the objects set out in the foregoing. A Other objects and advantages will appear in the following specification and the novel features of the invention will be outlined in the appended claims. y
My inventionis illustrated in the accompanying. drawings, forming a part of this application, 1 in which Fig. 1 is a. perspective view of one embodi.
ment of the invention,
Fig. 2 is a view in side elevation, showing the device in applied position with respect to the lower jaw of a patient,y
Fig. 3 is a sectional detail of afragmentary portion of the device illustrated in the precedingr views,l Y f Fig. 4 is a view showing another embodiment of the same invention, and v Fig. 5 is a view infrontelevation, show the embodiment of the invention illusi trated iny Fig. 4 in appliedposition with re-.
,spect to the upper jaw of fa patient. f
eferring now to Figs; lV to inclusive, the
numerals l and-2 respectively denote arms crossed and pivotally connected together at 3 intermediately-of their length. The arms 1 and 2 are formed with loop portions aand 5, respectively, at corresponding` ends thereof, which^ loopV portions are adapted torceeive the thumb and fingers of a hand. of an v f operator to permitof adjustment of thel armsr relatively or manipulation thereof as a unit.
The arm 2 is considerably shorter than the arm 1 and is -liormedwithan axially extending bore orv socket 6 in the end thereof opposite that provided with the loop por-` tion 5 `(see Fig. 3). .A frame I'adaptcd to receive and releasably hold a film or ,plate 8, has a shank 9A formed toprovide an offiset end portion 10V reduced `at l'iadjacent to its extremity to providea portion 12 Yof circular ycontour incross section and adapted'` to slide and rotate in thesoclzet 6. Ausct screw 13 may be operated to'hold the shankV 9 against movement relatively tothe arm 2.
The arm 1 is formed with a lateratextenare preferably formed integrally' therewith and which extend at right angles to. the
plane common and tangent to the extension 14, the end portion 16 and the portion of the arm 1 joining the end portion 16 to the eX- tension 14. An indicator which may bea pointed arm 19, is pivotally secured between the lugs 17 and 18 to swing between said lugs, whereby the outerend of said indi-` cator will describe 'an arc of a circle'. It is desirableV that vmean-s begprovided .for re-V leasably locking the indicator 19 in desired vangular relations to the end portionl.` Any. y suitable means yfor effectingV this result may` f be provided, end in'theembodiment of, theV element" supporting means pressed` against` Y j thevinnei'Vl side, ofthe: jaw.
'device of the characterdescribedcoin'-` prising a member liavingfan end'pportiong adapted to be insertedinthe mouth oi' a pal; tient, means supportedonlthe said end portion of the member for holding the radiographic element Within the mouth of the patient in a desired position, and means pivotaliy attached to said member for clamping against the outer side 01"' a portionof a jaw to hold the radiographic element supporting means pressed against the inner side of the jaw. Y
In combination, a pair of intermediateljv crossed and pivotally connected memers, one ot said members having an end portion insertable Within the mouth of a patient andv provided with means for supporting a radiographic element, and the othcriof ,saidY members having the end portion Y thereof corresponding to the end portion of the first member formed for clamping against the outside of a portion oi' the jaw when the radiographic element carryingend of the irst member is pressed against the inside of the jaw. Y
el. In combination, a pair of intermediately crossed and pivotally connected members, meanscarried by one of said members at one end thereof for supportinga radiographic film or plate, said means being of a size to be placed Within the mouth of a patient When the end of the supporting member is projected thereinto, the other of said members being. formed to provide portions adapted to be clamped to the outer side of a jaw when the radiographic plate is supported contiguous to the inner side ot the aw, and means carried by said clamping member for indicating the position of the radiographic plate with respect thereto.
5. In combination, a pair of intermediately crossed and pivotally connected members, means carried by one of said members at one end thereof for supporting a radiographic film or plate, said means being oit a size to be placed Within the mouth of a patient when Vthe end of the supporting member is projected thereinto, the other of said members being formed to provide portions adapted to be clamped to the outer side of a jaw when the radiographic plate is supported contiguous to the innerside of the jaw, and adjustable means Ycarried by said clamping member for indicating the position or the radiographic plate with respect thereto.
