More particularly, the tube clip may be magnetically coupled to the base member. In one embodiment, a timepiece may be coupled to the tube clip.
Description
- The present invention relates generally to medical accessories and, more particularly, to a device for selectively maintaining a stethoscope tube near a user's body.
- For medical professionals such as physicians and nurses, wearing a stethoscope around one's neck is very common, perhaps even more common than the wearing of a tie in the business world. A common problem, however, is that the stethoscope tube often hangs in the user's way when the stethoscope is not in active use. In other words, when a user is not extending the stethoscope chest piece to a patient's body (e.g. for listening to a patient's heart or lungs), the user may want to leave the stethoscope hanging on his neck but does not want the stethoscope tube to dangle or be in the way.
- Although various devices have been proposed in the art for restraining a stethoscope tube, the existing devices and proposals do not provide a device that maintains a stethoscope tube tightly against a user's body in a manner that also allows it to be removed with very little effort. Further, the existing proposals do not provide a stethoscope tube restraint device that is actually coupled to a user's shirt.
- Therefore, it would be desirable to have a stethoscope restraint that is attached to a user's shirt and which selectively maintains a stethoscope tube adjacent a wearer's shirt when not in use. Further, it would be desirable to have a stethoscope restraint having a tube clip that may actually be removed from a base unit.
- A stethoscope restraint for use with a stethoscope tube according to the present invention includes a base member having front and rear faces. The stethoscope restraint includes at least one of a magnet, a pin, and a clip for selectively coupling the base member to an article of clothing. Further, the stethoscope restraint device includes a tube clip coupled to the base member for selectively coupling a stethoscope tube to the base member. The front face of the base member may include a planar configuration and may include indicia.
- The tube clip may be removably coupled to the base member and may be semi-permanently attachable to a stethoscope tube. More particularly, the tube clip may be magnetically coupled to the base member. In one embodiment, a timepiece may be coupled to the tube clip.
- Therefore, a general object of this invention is to provide a stethoscope restraint for maintaining a stethoscope tube near a user's body when not in use.
- Another object of this invention is to provide a stethoscope restraint, as aforesaid, having a base member that is attachable to a user's clothing.
- Still another object of this invention is to provide a stethoscope restraint, as aforesaid, having a tube clip for selectively engaging a stethoscope tube and which may optionally be removable from the base member.
- Yet another object of this invention is to provide a stethoscope restraint, as aforesaid, in which the base member may include indicia for personalizing the stethoscope restraint.
- A further object of this invention is to provide a stethoscope restraint, as aforesaid, that is durable and economically feasible to manufacture.
- Other objects and advantages of the present invention will become apparent from the following description taken in connection with the accompanying drawings, wherein is set forth by way of illustration and example, embodiments of this invention.

FIG. 1 is a front perspective view of a stethoscope restraint according to one embodiment of the present invention; -
FIG. 2 is a rear perspective view of the stethoscope restraint as inFIG. 1 ; -
FIG. 3 is a front perspective view of a stethoscope restraint according to still another embodiment of the present invention; -
FIG. 4 is a front perspective view of a stethoscope restraint according to still another embodiment of the present invention; -
FIG. 5 is a rear perspective view of the stethoscope restraint as inFIG. 4 in which magnets are utilized to attach a base member to a user's clothing; -
FIG. 6 is a rear view of a base member as inFIG. 1 wherein pins are utilized to attach the base member to a user's clothing; -
FIG. 7 is a rear view of a base member as inFIG. 4 wherein a clip is utilized to attach the base member to a user's clothing; -
FIGS. 8 and 9 are additional perspective views of the base member of the stethoscope restraint as inFIG. 4 . - A stethoscope restraint 100 according to the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to
FIGS. 1 through 9 of the accompanying drawings. More particularly, according to the current invention, a stethoscope restraint 100 for use with a stethoscope tube (i.e., a tube that connects a stethoscope chestpiece to a stethoscope earpiece) includes abase member 110. - As shown in
FIGS. 1 and 2 , thebase member 110 may have front andrear faces 112 a, 112 b. Thebase member 110 may be rectangular, oval, circular, or of any appropriate shape, and thebase member 110 may have a side 114 as shown inFIGS. 4 , 5, 8, and 9. The front face 112 a may include indicia, and the front face 112 a in particular may be generally planar to display the indicia. The indicia may provide personalization and may include, for example, pictures, characters, mascots, trademarks, landmarks, landscapes, etc. The indicia may be permanently or removably attached to thebase member 110. - The
stethoscope restraint 100 includes means for selectively coupling thebase member 110 to an article of clothing. More particularly, afastener 120 is coupled to thebase member 110 to selectively couple thebase member 110 to an article of clothing. Thefastener 120 may be permanently or removably coupled to thebase member 110, and thefastener 120 may be, for example, a magnet 122 a (FIGS. 1 through 5 ), apin 122 b (FIG. 6 ), or aclip 122 c (FIG. 7 ). If thebase member 110 is constructed of non-ferrous material and thefastener 120 is a magnet 122 a, anadditional magnet 116 may be affixed to thebase member 110 for interaction with the magnet 122 a (FIG. 5 ). - The
stethoscope restraint 100 further includes means for selectively coupling a stethoscope tube to thebase member 110. More particularly, a tube clip 130 (any device appropriate for attachment to a stethoscope tube) is coupled to thebase member 110 for selectively coupling a stethoscope tube to thebase member 110. Thetube clip 130 may be permanently or removably coupled to thebase member 110. - In the embodiment shown in
FIGS. 4 , 5, and 7 through 9, thetube clip 130 may be coupled to thebase member 110 adjacent the side 114 and extend outside the side 114 so that the indicia on the base member front face 112 a may be revealed. In such an embodiment, thetube clip 130 may be permanently coupled to thebase member 110, though this may not be necessary. If the clip fastener 122 c and thetube clip 130 are permanently coupled to thebase member 110, thebase member 110, the clip fastener 122 c, and thetube clip 130 may collectively have a unitary plastic construction, though other constructions may also be appropriate. - A
tube clip 130 that is removably coupled to thebase member 110 is shown inFIGS. 1 through 3 . In such an embodiment, thetube clip 130 may be, for example, magnetically coupled to the base member 110 (e.g., by magnet 132 shown inFIG. 2 ). It may be desirable for aremovable tube clip 130 as shown inFIGS. 1 through 3 to be at least semi-permanently attachable to the stethoscope tube so that thetube clip 130 remains attached to the stethoscope tube when separated from thebase member 110. As shown inFIG. 1 , atimepiece 140 may be coupled to the tube clip 130 (and especially a removable tube clip 130) for use as described below. - In use, a stethoscope is generally worn around a physician's (or other user's) neck when not being employed. To maintain the stethoscope tube against the user's body, the
fastener 120 may be coupled to an article of the user's clothing (e.g., a shirt, a jacket, a coat, etc.), and thetube clip 130 may be coupled to the stethoscope tube. Various fasteners may provide different benefits. For example, thepin 122 b may provide very firm attachment, the magnet 122 a may not damage the clothing, and the clip fastener 122 c may be simple to attach. If thetube clip 130 is coupled to thebase member 110 adjacent the side 114 and extends outside the side 114 as described above, the stethoscope tube may be restrained while the indicia on the base member front face 112 a is revealed. If thetube clip 130 is removably coupled to thebase member 110, it may be extremely easy to separate the stethoscope tube from (and attach the stethoscope tube to) thebase member 110. Thetimepiece 140 may be used to help measure heart rate or in other situations in which time must be kept. - It is understood that while certain forms of this invention have been illustrated and described, it is not limited thereto except insofar as such limitations are included in the following claims and allowable functional equivalents thereof.
