Abstract
RECEPTACLE FOR HOLDING MEDICAL SUPPLIES A receptacle for holding medical supplies is necessary for a caregiver to quickly and efficiently obtain desired medical supplies within a caregiving room or a caregiving vehicle, such as Emergency Medical Service vehicles, fire engines, or ambulances. Caregiving rooms and vehicles can be small and lack cabinets sufficient to hold certain medical supplies. The present invention's slim structure can be either mounted on a wall, placed on a countertop, on a floor, or on a stand of the caregiving room or vehicle. When the present invention is opaque or clear, the medical supplies contained therein are visible. The receptacle can also be a solid color with the contents and their warning indications depicted on the outer front of the receptacle. A user can conveniently and expediently extract medical supplies through openings on the receptacle by using only one hand since the medical supply containers are restrained by the restraint feature of the receptacle.
Description
- 1. Field of the Invention
- The present invention relates to a receptacle for holding medical supplies for use in connection with a caregiving facility or with caregiving vehicles, such as Emergency Medical Service vehicles, fire engines, or ambulances. The receptacle for holding medical and cleaning supplies has particular utility in connection with providing a caregiver convenient and expedient access to medical or cleaning supplies.
- 2. Description of the Prior Art
- Receptacles for holding medical supplies are desirable for organizing medical supplies and making them accessible to a caregiver.
- The use of receptacles for holding medical supplies is known in the prior art. For example, U.S. Pat. No. 5,938,646 to Carter discloses a medical utility storage assembly for reusable medical equipment. However, the Carter '646 patent does not provide separate container areas within the receptacle for holding separate medical supply containers, and has further drawbacks of being difficult to mount or place in or near a caregiving facility room or inside caregiving vehicles, such as Emergency Medical Service vehicles, fire engines, or ambulances.
- U.S. Pat. No. 5,502,944 to Kraft et al discloses a medication dispenser system that holds medication units with robotics for manipulating a selected container to transfer one or more medication units from the container directly to said package to avoid cross-contamination. However, the Kraft '944 patent does not depict the contents of each container area, and additionally does not have a slim shape allowing it to fit slimly along a wall in or near a caregiving facility room or in caregiving vehicles, such as Emergency Medical Service vehicles, fire engines, or ambulances.
- Similarly, U.S. Pat. No. 4,844,249 to Coulombe discloses a medical supplies container that comprises a base wall, four upright side walls and a peripheral flange projecting outwardly from the top edges of the side walls with a few bores for holding a hypodermic syringe, a needle and a needle holder. However, the Coulombe '249 patent does not provide for various medical supply containers, and is not designed for use in the same manner as the receptacle for holding medical supplies of the present invention.
- Lastly, U.S. Pat. No. D303,051 to Steed discloses a holder for medical supplies or the like to be mounted on the handrail. However, the Steed '051 patent does not show a medical supply holder with separate container areas sectioned therein, and has the additional deficiency of lacking a restraint to hold medical supply containers in place when extracting medical supplies therefrom.
- While the above-described devices fulfill their respective, particular objectives and requirements, the aforementioned patents do not describe a receptacle for holding medical supplies that allows convenient and expedient access to medical or cleaning supplies. The Steed patent makes no provision for being mounted on a wall or being operable to stand upright on either the floor or a stand.
- Therefore, a need exists for a new and improved receptacle for holding medical supplies that can be used for providing a caregiver convenient and expedient access to medical or cleaning supplies. In this regard, the present invention substantially fulfills this need. In this respect, the receptacle for holding medical supplies according to the present invention substantially departs from the conventional concepts and designs of the prior art, and in doing so provides an apparatus primarily developed for the purpose of providing a caregiver convenient and expedient access to medical or cleaning supplies.
- In view of the foregoing disadvantages inherent in the known types of receptacles for holding medical supplies now present in the prior art, the present invention provides an improved receptacle for holding medical or cleaning supplies, and overcomes the above-mentioned disadvantages and drawbacks of the prior art. As such, the general purpose of the present invention, which will be described subsequently in greater detail, is to provide a new and improved receptacle for holding medical supplies and method of filling receptacle with desired medical or cleaning supplies, placing receptacle in or near a caregiving room or vehicle, reaching through opening of receptacle, and grasping desired medical supply for use which has all the advantages of the prior art mentioned heretofore and many novel features that result in a receptacle for holding medical or cleaning supplies which is not anticipated, rendered obvious, suggested, or even implied by the prior art, either alone or in any combination thereof.
- To attain this, the present invention essentially comprises a receptacle for holding medical supplies comprising a front wall, a rear wall, a plurality of side walls defining a plurality of receptacle areas such that each receptacle area is defined by the rear wall and at least one internal wall and the front wall to allow medical supplies to fit into the receptacle area for dispensing purposes such that all of these medical supply receptacle areas are collinear, a bottom wall that connects perpendicularly to the plurality of side walls and to the front wall and rear wall, and a restraint member that holds a medical supply container while a user is extracting medical supplies from the medical supply container held inside the receptacle.
- There has thus been outlined, rather broadly, the more important features of the invention in order that the detailed description thereof that follows may be better understood and in order that the present contribution to the art may be better appreciated.
- The invention may also include a receptacle that displays information regarding the contents or warnings of the medical or cleaning supply containers therein.
