The invention hereinafter to be described relates, in general terms, to surgical instruments, but is concerned more particularly with improvements in a lever-type tourniquet, a device 5 employed to constrict the flesh of an arm or leg adjacent a bleeding wound for the purpose of preventing exsanguination of the person injured.
In the preliminary or first aid treatment oi copiously bleeding wounds the circumscription or binding of the limb of the patient should be attended to without delay and a tension on the tourniquet strap applied of sufficient strength to immediately stay the outflow of blood.
This tension, however, should be somewhat slackened after a definite period else a gangrenous condition, due to continued interference with arterial and collateral circulation, will develop. i
The present invention, which I consider an improvement on a device for a like purpose and on which Letters Patent of the United States, No. 1,712,584 were granted me on May 14;, 1929, deals with structure by of which it is possible, when desired, to relax the extreme or full tension of the tourniquet strap by such an amount as will permit of circulation of the blood through some of the blood vessels being resumed and at the same time maintaining a certain pressure control over arterial circulation.
When the tourniquet strap applied and fully tensioned, circulation stops in both arteries and veins. Except in cases where the limb has been severed resumption of circulation through the uncut blood-carrying vessels should be allowed to take place as soon as possible after the blood ceases to flow from no wound.
The blood in and at the point of severance of an artery usually coagulates quickly, but until such time as the coagulum has safely and positively plugged its orifice the extreme strap tension on the artery should be continued.
When, at the proper time, this extreme pressure constriction of the limb is relaxed, it should at first be only a partial lessening of the strap tention, for, should the binding pressure be pre maturely and completely removed, the possibility of again startin bleeding of the artery or blood vessels by re opening their coagulum plugged ends would be present.
By prolonging this period of lessened strap tension the situation for the time being is taken care of and circulation through the intact, smaller blood vessels reestablished. Nature, in
(Cl. REF-327) due course, will provide for the return of normal functioning of the arteries by anastomosis, meaning, inosculation of the branches of the blood circulatory system.
In carrying out my invention in practice I mount on the loop end portion of the tourniquet strap a stop-lug element which, when the tensio ng lever is swung away from its full tension position permitting a portion of the strap loop to recede from under the tourniquet base member, automatically engages a cross-bar serving on this occasion as a stop to prevent further withdrawal at this time of the strap.
The strap is now locked in an intermediatetension position and this condition prevails until it is considered safe to remove this lower degr e of constriction and permit the parts to resume their original or initial binding effort, such as obtained when the instrument was first applied to the injured limb. As a precautionary measure the tourniquet may be left on the limb, all tension removed, until possible recurrence of bleeding is thought to be passed.
my former patented device, hereinbefore referred to, the locking of the strap for intermediate tension was accomplished by securing the lever in this intermediate position, whereas in my present conception the strap, itself, is the element secured and the lever is free to move into juxtaposition to the base member which greatly compacts the parts.
Furthermore, a greater capacity for or latitude of strap tension release is provided in my presout than was the case in my former invention, as with the latter, when the lever approached the dead center line of action, it became inoperative, with respect to intermediate tension reuirements.
l have illustrated my invention in the accompanying drawings in which,-

Like reference characters indicate like parts.
As the tourniquet in which my present invention is embodied operates on substantially the same principle as the one I have previously patented and hereinbefore referred to, it is deemed sufficient disclosure at this time to point out those features only which are essential to a clear understanding of the connection between that which is old and that which is new.
Primarily, my tourniquet comprises three principal elements, the base member 1, the tensioning lever 2, and the strap 3.
The lever is pivotally mounted on the base member at some intermediate point thereon, as at la, and is adapted to swing, in the operation of the device, in either direction.
In the present embodiment the strap is reeved through the parts in a somewhat different manner from that adopted in my previously mentioned device, but the same ends are sought and attained by the use of either method, except as will be hereinafter set forth.
After the tourniquet has been placed on the bleeding limb of the patient, on that side of the wound nearer the heart, the free end 3a of the strap is drawn taut in the direction of the arrow at, in Fig. 1, frictionally locking itself as it weaves around the cross-bars 1b and 1c, and exerting what I call the initial strain or tension of the strap around the injured limb. The position of the parts at this time are as shown in full lines in Fig. 1, the loop 32) of the strap engaging the cross-bar 2a of the lever 2.
But this initial strain is hardly sufiicient to stay the flow of blood and the operation is designed simply to create a circumferential, binding pressure slightly in excess of that required to take up the slack of the strap.
To procure a tension on the strap which will prevent further bleeding the free end 3a of the strap is swung over and reeved between the cross-bars 2a and 2b of the lever, then backwardly, as shown in dot and dash lines (Fig. 1). By a strong grasp and pull on the strap in the direction of the, arrow b the lever is raised and swung over on to the opposite end of the base member, moving in the direction of the arrow 0, the parts then being disposed as seen in Fig. 2.
By this swing of the lever the looped end of the strap has been brought further into the base member, shortening the working length and increasing the constricting effort of the strap around the injured limb. This particular tightening operation, from initial to full strain of the strap I designate as the lever take-up tension.
In service, the period during which this lever take-up tension should be continued varies with circumstances which cannot always be foretold and for this reason its determination is best left to the judgment of the medical practitioner or other competent person attending the patient; but eventually it must be reduced, and reduced by degrees, otherwise if the tension-release operation is performed prematurely or the binding pressure suddenly and completely removed untold injury might be done the patient.
To accomplish this step-down or reduction in constriction pressure I provide a stop-lug 4 shown in blank form in Fig. 6 as I preferably construct it. It comprises a thin plate having fastener ears 4a on its ends and a lug or tongue 4b partially sheared from the central portion of the plate.
The ears 4a are bent and clinched in the strap and the tongue 42) bent outwardly, as shown in Fig. 1.
As the lever 2 moves from Fig. 1 to Fig. 2 position it draws the lop 3b into and over the base member 1, the stop-lug 4 now being disposed on the top of the loop substantially midway the length of the base member 1. The loop is preferably arranged as shown in Fig. l in which the outer course of the loop lies between the two cross-bars 1d and 1c, the loop itself encircling the bars 1e and 2a.
When it is desired to reduce the strap tension the lever 2 is swung back toward its original position permitting the strap loop to move out from under the base member a certain distance. When the lever arrives at a position shown in Fig. 3 the stop-lug ear portion 4b engages the cross-bar 1d, haulting further movement of the strap for the time being, and looking it positively and automatically in this intermediate tension position.
The lever is now free to continue its retractive movement and in Fig. 4 it is shown depressed and compacted close to the base member and loop.
In certain instances it might be desirable to provide structure whereby the full tension of the strap could be released by a series of stepdown movements or consecutive relaxings of the binding pressure.
In Fig. 7 is shown a short portion of the strap loop with a plurality of the stop-lugs 4 secured thereto, each adaptable of engaging the cross-bar 1d and effecting various degrees of strap tension.
As the tourniquet instrument is largely used by physicians who have their own individual ideas as to the proper amount of strap tension release, I have provided an alternate method of procuring various amounts of sure with but one of the stop-lugs employed.
I illustrate this feature in Fig. 3 in which is shown a snap button 5 which is secured on the strap and is engageable with its mating part 6 secured on the free end of the loop portion. A plurality of the elements 6 may be employed, each adapted to be engaged by the part 5, changing from one to another either lengthening or shortening the loop 31) by an amount onehalf the distance between each element 6.
In Fig. 5 I show an alternative method of reeving the strap element in the parts 1 and 2. In this instance there are two straps, 3 and 7, the latter having a loop handle 7a used in actuating the lever 2, and an inwardly disposed portion 7b which acts to protect the flesh from direct contact with the metal parts of the tourniquet. In this design I employ a buckle 8 which is used in taking up the slack and putting the strap under initial tension. The essence of my invention as it pertains to strap release tension is retained in the tourniquet illustrated in Fig. 5.
When it is desired to release the stop-lug from engagement with the cross-bar 1d and return the strap to its initial tension position the free end 311. of the strap is grasped and the lever raised somewhat beyond its position in Fig. 8- lifting the stop-lug oil the crossbar. Then by lifting on the finger-hold 1c of the base memher the cross-bar is elevated suiiicientlv to per mit of t e stop-lug downwardly by it Without interference. The strap loop will now be positioned as shown in Fig. 1.
In Fig. 9 I illustrate a modification in the arrangement of the locking parts to retain the strap in intermediate tension. In this instance a sleeve 9 is revolubly mounted. on the crossbar 102, and on the sleeve is a pawl 10 which, when the strap loop 31) is withdrawing out of the base member, eng ges a rivet eyelet ll secured in the outer course of the strap loop. A trip tongue 12 is employed to the pawl from the eyelet.
The sleeve 9 is split and somewhat opened at 13 for the purpose of increasing the frictional resistance of the strap as it draws across the sleeve on its downward movement. It thus acts to automatically throw the pawl against the strap and into the opening in the eyelet when the two come abreast.
The Fig. 9 embodiment, although diiierent in structure, has the same functional characteristic as does the Fig. 1 example in that the strap, in distinction to the lever, is the element locked in intermediate tension.
