- the plunger, 6, transmits its force to the plunger, 8, and in turn to the head, 4, from which it is transmitted to the patient.
- the spring, 1, bearing against the stop, 23, will naturally cause a recoil of the barrel, I, as the plunger, 8, and head, 4, are pressed against the back of the patient.

- I shall refer to the 4direct force applied to the spine in adjusting a subluxation as the drive or driving force and to the rotary or twisting movement sometimes applied in giving such adjustments as the torque, which may be either to the right or left as the case may be.
- I shall also refer to the direction in which the direct force is applied as the line of drive.
- recoil is an important element in accomplishing the return of the subluxated vertebra to its normal position.
- My apparatus provides means by which the direction of the drive can be accurately controlled. 'Ihe driving rod slides longitudinally of the barrel. It is obvious then that if the contact head, 4, be placed in contact with the backof a patient at the desired point, the barrel may be inclined so that it points in the direction in which it is desired to have the force applied and as the trigger is pulled and the driving rod, 6, moves forward in the barrel, the driving force will necessarily be applied in the direction in which the barrel is pointed.
- My apparatus also provides means by which the amount of force to be applied by direct drive can be regulated or predetermined.

The barrel is then carefully alined 'in the'desired direction in which it is desired `to have the adjusting forceV applied. The appliance is then held firmly by the operator and the trigger pulled. When the trigger is pulled, the plunger, 6, will be forced by :the spring, 1, forwardly with the force corresponding'to the degree to which the spring, 1, has been compressed in the charging operation. The plunger, 6, transmits its force to the plunger, 8, and in turn to the head, 4, from which it is transmitted to the patient.
The spring, 1, bearing against the stop, 23, will naturally cause a recoil of the barrel, I, as the plunger, 8, and head, 4, are pressed against the back of the patient. Any recoil movement of the barrel will tend to carry with it the plunger, 6and thus leave a short space withinwhich the plunger, 8, itself may recoil to the rear after the pressure'of the plunger, 6, thereon has bee withdrawn. I prefer to proportion the parts of my apparatus so that the spring, 1, will not extend far enough at any time to hold the head of the plunger, 6, in contact with the head, 8', of the plunger 8, when in its forwardmost position so that there will normally be a certain distance in which the plunger, 8, is free to recoil. However, I do not limit my claims to an appliance of fixed size or proportions, but the various parts of my appliance may be Vvaried to suit the requirements ofdifferent cases. Y My process is-carried out by the use of the apparatus just described and will be readily understood by those skilled in the chiropractic art. v'It is a matter of common knowledge among chiropractors `that different vertebral subluxationsY require diierent lines of drive of the force applied to correct them; also that some subluxations may require a certain amount of torque or'twisting movement to the right and others may require a torque to the left. Y
For convenience and clearness inthe claims, I have referred to the plunger orrod, 6, as the driving rod or rod and-to the plunger or rod,=8, as the plungerz v-For convenience I shall refer to the 4direct force applied to the spine in adjusting a subluxation as the drive or driving force and to the rotary or twisting movement sometimes applied in giving such adjustments as the torque, which may be either to the right or left as the case may be. I shall also refer to the direction in which the direct force is applied as the line of drive. v
Itis a matter of common knowledge among chiropractors that the amount of force necessarytc adjust subluxated vertebrae differs widely in different` eases, depending somewhat upon the age and muscular development of the patient, the nature, position and extent of the subluxation, the length of time which has elapsed since the subluxation occurred and other factors it is unnecessary to specify.
It is also a matter of common knowledge that itl is important for chiropractor practitioner to develop a high degree of strength and agility in the muscles of his hands and arms to enable him to administer adjustments generally with the desired success.
It is well known that the correction of subluxatons inl many cases occurs during what is commonly known as the recoil rather than during the application of the driving force.
We find in practice that two forces are in. concussion, the invasionary force being delivered by the operator or the instrument and the resistance force being returned and coming from the object struck. The subluxation is not ad- 204i justed by the invasionary force alone, neither is the subluxation adjusted by the resistance force from within alone; but the adjustment of a subluxated vertebra takes place when the two forces come in contact each with the other; the body 251" is driven away from and then recoils. It is during this recoil reaction upon the part of the body that the actual correct repositioning of the subluxated vertebra takes place.
In other words, there is a certain amount of 305 the blow or impact in proportion to the force 33:
applied, and as soon as the force of the blow or impact ceases or is removed, the natural resilience of the spinal structures causes a rebound or reaction which is commonly called a recoil.A This recoil is an important element in accomplishing the return of the subluxated vertebra to its normal position.
'Ihese conditions render it necessary that any process of adjustment, to be successful, must involve the application of the proper or requisite' 5 amount of force or direct drive upon the proper portion of the spine and this force must be directed in the proper direction. Such process must also permit full freedom of recoil or reaction. v
My apparatus provides means by which the direction of the drive can be accurately controlled. 'Ihe driving rod slides longitudinally of the barrel. It is obvious then that if the contact head, 4, be placed in contact with the backof a patient at the desired point, the barrel may be inclined so that it points in the direction in which it is desired to have the force applied and as the trigger is pulled and the driving rod, 6, moves forward in the barrel, the driving force will necessarily be applied in the direction in which the barrel is pointed.
My apparatus also provides means by which the amount of force to be applied by direct drive can be regulated or predetermined. The length of the driving rod, 6, and of the rack formed by the teeth, Bb, is such that the driving rod may be retracted to various degrees measured by the notches, 6". As the rod, 6, is retracted, its head exerts pressure upon the coiled spring,` 1, and compresses it, the coiled spring, 1, being made of suitable size to afford the maximum desired amount of force when the driving rod is retracted toV the last notch, 6, and to afford inter- 752' mediate degrees of force'forthe intermediate notches. c y ,l
The spring, 1, and the travel of the drivingrod,
6, are intended to bev soproportioned that whenY tended to be proportional to the varyindgrees of force which chiropractors have'found it necessary to utilize ingiving adjustments manually.
Itis obvious that my appliance maybe made so as to be able to deliver an impact of greater force than could be delivered manually in the ordinary way, and where'a chiropractor has insuf-4 ficient strength to apply the desired amountnof force, my appliance will afford a ready means of applying a greater force thanV he cando by the use ofhis hands alone.;A Y
Likewise, it has been found that many persons do not possess the requisite agility-that is, they do not have ,sufficientlyl rapid control of theirfmuscular movements-to vdeliver a sudden impact by hand and then withdraw the hand with sufficient rapidity to permit a free recoil of the patient. My apparatus obviously can be depended upon l to permit asudden recoil because-the actionof 'thespring 1, will naturally cause certain inertia in the drivingrod, 16 which will tend, to carry it somewhat beyond the normal length of the spring,
i; 1,- and as the spring .pressure is thus `removed from it, Vthe driving rod; 5, will be free l.tour'eturn as the plunger, 8, is driven backward bythe recoil of the patient acting upon the resilient head, 4. The resilience of the head, 4, will also assist in this recoil movement, f Y* v Instead of the torque or twisting movementy of Vthe hand or hands of the operator inadjusting,
my apparatus providesfor a torque or twisting movement of the head, 4, which takes the place 'of the torque delivered by the; operator `directly and maybe eitherl increased or diminished by the loperato-1' by turning lthehandle, I either to the f right or `left as may be desired at the time the trigger is pulled.\
I do not limit my claims to the precise form of apparatus herejshown nor tothe exact. descriptionofmy process above set out, but claim broadly both apparatus and process and their equivalents. m f 1 ".Iclaim: Y f
