SALIVA EJECTOR Bernard Jankelson, Seattle, Wash.
Application April 12, 1946, Serial No. 661,647
6 Claims.
This invention relates to devices which, in the` dental Yand medical profession, are known as saliva ejectors, and it has reference more particularly to improvements in devices of that kind employing suction for the withdrawing of saliva from the mouth of a patient while a dental or other oral operation is being performed.
Explanatory to the objects and advantages of the present invention, it will here be explained that there are now in general use various types of suction devices for saliva ejection. One'type of device that is vquite commonly used comprises a hook shaped suction tube or stem that may be applied over the lower tooth ridge of the mouth and which terminates at its inner end in a suction nozzle. Due to the fact that the patients head is most generally tilted back while this device is in use, the saliva will collect at the back y of the mouth away from the ejector and will not be withdrawn. Furthermore, the hook shaped part of this stem portion will invariably press the nozzle into the mouth tissue and cause discomfort to the patient. Also, the suction will operate to draw the tissues of the mouth into the saliva orice of the nozzle and thus cause unsatisfactory functioning of .the ejector and additional discomfort to the patient.
In view of the foregoing and for Various other' reasons, it has been the principal object of this invention to provide an improved type of suce tion ejector, that can be used in the usual way but without discomfort to the patient; that will extract saliva as it collects in the back portion of the patients mouth and avoids the objectionable tissue drawing anddiscomfort from this result.
Another object of the invention is to provide a suction device wherein a suction nozzle portion` of novel construction,-is attached to the stem portion by means of a flexible, tubular connector that permits the nozzle to easily conform to or lie along the ioor of the mouth and thus avoid any of the` gouging or pressure discomfort of the rigid stem and to best adapt its position to the patients position and Withdraw saliva from the lowerrnost portion of the mouth.
Another object of the invention is to provide a device so constructed that its various parts may readily and easily be taken apart for cleaning and sterilizing.
Still another object of the invention is to provide a saliva electing device, comprising a suction stem adapted to be hooked over the lower tooth ridge of the mouth and to which a suction nozzle is attachedby means of a short length of f exibletubing that makes it possible for the nozzle.
to extend more to the back of the mouth and to lie in the most advantageous position for'saliva ejection regardless of the tilt of the patients head, and to rise and fall as the patient swallows or moves the oor of the mouth.
Still further objects of the invention reside in the details of construction of its various parts; in their combination and mode of operation, `as will hereinafter be fully described.
In accomplishing these and other objects of the invention, I have provided the improved details of construction, the preferred forms of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings, wherein- Fig. 1 is-a side View of a saliva ejector embodied by the present invention. v
Fig. 2 is an enlarged, longitudinal section of the suction nozzle that is applied to the inner end of the suction tube or stem portion of the device.
Fig. 3 is a cross section on line 3 3 in Fig. A2. Fig. 4 is a perspective View of the parts of the nozzle, shown ina dis-assembled relationship for better understanding and explanation.
Fig. 5 is a sectional detail of the nozzle showing'a closure cap of an alternative construction.
Referring more in detail to the drawings- The present device; in a form of construction now preferred, comprises a tubular metal stem` l0 of a' length suitable for its intended use, and suitably equipped at one end for convenient attachment to a suction hose, or the like, such as that indicated at Il in Fig. 1, and curved at itsl other end as at I2 to hook form,for itsintended application over the lowerv tooth 'ridge' of the the'important features of the invention, as will presently be apparent.
Another important feature of the present invention resides in those details of constructinr of the nozzle that permits ample suction for saliva ejection and eliminates drawing the mouth tissuesinto the suction openings of the nozzle.lr
These features are best understood by reference to Figs. 2 and 3, wherein it is noted that the outer end of the exible tube I4 is applied tightly over the inner 'end of a nozzle tube 20. Surrounding the tube 20,` and applicable thereover Vfrom either- The use of theV end, is a tubular sleeve 25, the inner end of which is constricted, as at 26 in Fig. 2, to fit the tube 20.
Applied to the outer end of the nozzle is a round headed screw 21 having its shank or stem 21 threaded into the outer end of tube 20. The head of the screw is of approximately the same diameter as tube 25, and abuts atly against the outer end of the latter. The inner face of the screw also is shouldered, as at 28, to receive the end of tube 25 thereover, and thus Vto be held axially centered relative to tube 20.
It is also shown that the screw has an axial bore 29 providing a direct passage for saliva into the tube 20 from the outer end of the nozzle. This bore is fed by the screw head slots.
In the assembled relationship of parts, the sleeve 25 is held in place against the screw head by the outer end of the rubber tube I4 as applied to the tube 20 and abutted tightly against the restricted end of the sleeve as noted in Figs. l and 2.
As lan alternative closure for the outer end of the nozzle, I have provided a cap 40 with a cylindrical wall 4I that receives the outer end of the sleeve 25 therein. This cap is closed at its outer end and has a mounting shank 42 threaded into the tube 20. The shank has an axial bore 43 opening into the tube 20 and to the outer'end of the nozzle.
This cap, being somewhat greater in diameter than sleeve 25, gives some protection tothe slots 35 that eliminates tissue drawing.
In order that suction that is transmitted to the nozzle through the tubes I0, II and I4 may be utilized to effectively draw saliva into the nozzle, the tube 2D is formed at longitudinally spaced intervals in its outer end portion with suitable openings 32, hereshown as transverse slits, but which might be openings of other shape. These are located in its opposite sides near the screw. Also, the sleeve '25 is provided along its With the outer end of stem I connected to aY suitable suction,k tube I Lathe hook end of the stemY is applied over the lower ridge in 'such mannen that the nozzle willAbe permitted to layalong the floor of the mouth, extending inwardly. Suction created in the tube I0 by its connection' to tube Il, will be transmitted to the nozzle tube through the openings 32 into the annular space within the tube and sleeve 25. This willfop` erate to draw saliv-a from the mouth throughv the passage 29 directly intothe tube 20.l Also,
thesuction created within the sleeve through-f the slits 32 will operate to draw the saliva into the.- sleeve through the slots or openings 35 and thence through the'openings 32 into the tube 20.
In the event that,l inthe intended use of the f device, there should be any tendency toward tissue drawing through the slots 35, this suction will never become so strong as to cause any discomforl'fio the patientdue to theitact that the operi-r'l VY 20 through the length of flexible tubing I4. This Y suction is transmitted through the tube 2D and mouth.
The easy disassembly of parts that is permitted merely by unthreading the screw 21 from one end of the tube 20 Iand pulling the rubber tube I4 from its other end, makes it possible to easily clean and sterilize all parts effectively and easily.
The use of the short flexible tube I4 is not limited to this particular device or type of nozzle, and it will make it possible for any type of nozzle to readily assume the most practical and natural position in the mouth and without discomfort, regardless of whether the patients head is tilted or not. Y
yProportions in'size of parts may be varied to meet requirements and materials of anysuitable kind may be employed in their construction.
Having thus described.l my invention, what I claim as newL therein and desire to secure by Letters Patent is-V 1. An ejector of thecharacter described comprising a rigid stem portion designed to hook over the lower tooth ridge, a tubular suction nozzle" designed to lie on the floor of the mouth for the withdrawal of saliva, and a ilexible tubular member connecting the nozzle and inner end of the said stem that permits the nozzle to automatically adjustitself to its intended position 2.V An ejector ofthe character described comprising a tubular stemadapted for connection at its louter end with' a suction device and having itsI inner end portionrdesigned to supportingly` overlie the lower tooth ridge of the mouth, .a flex,- ible tubular Vextension'. applied'. to the inner end of the said stem and a .suction nozzle at the end of said extension said flexible extension permitting the nozzle to automatically adapt itselfto a 1 position free of pressure by the supported stem.-`
