Description
July 7,1953
a SOKIQLIK COLONIC-VAGINAL :aaxmoa Filed Iarchil4, 1952 INVENTOR.
part of the disclosure:
Patented July 7, 1953 ltdwafd sbkouii, New Brighton; Minn..- Abpiii'idii-Mieh 14, 1952;. seriai'hfo. tweet editin (o1. 128'239) My present invention relates to animpro'ved irrigator for colonic or vaginal therapy and the principal object of the invention is to' provide an irrigator that is sanitary and convenient in its application;
Another object is to providev an irrigator, whereby the'liquid supiplyhose isused in a depending position and kept out or the flush bowl', nd there by contamination and kinking thereof prevented and the liquid flowfaeilitated-f Still another object is to provide" a reet'a'l nozfzle'th'a't'is self retairiable'arid'that isprovided with non-clogg'able discharge" bnfices; and
Afurther object'is to provide a vaginal nozzle that is provided with longitudinally extending and radially projected ridges; whereby the vagina is distended and the irrigating liquid caused to flow in channels between the ridges.
These and other objects and advantages will be apparent as the description progresses.
Invention resides in the structure, arrangement, combination and shape. I
Inthe accompanying drawings-which are a Fig. 1 illustrates a plan view of the device with a portion shown in section. I v p w N Fig; 2 illustrates a longitudinal section of a vaginal nozzle on line 22, Figure 3.
Fig. 3 illustrates a cross-section on line 3-3, Figure 2.
Fig. 4 illustrates a cross-section on line 4-4, Figure l. v
. In the embodiment of the invention as shown in Fig. l in combination with a flexible tubular I conduit 5 connnected to a liquid supply, which as shown is a rubber pouch 6, is a colonic irrigator 1. It is, as shown, a one-piece body-portion 8 of suitable material such as plastic, rubber, glass and the like. This body-portion 8 is comprised of an intermediate connecting-portion 9, a nozzle-portion l0 provided at one end of the connectingportion 9 in a manner so that, in use, it is uprightly disposed, and a handle-portion H provided at the other end of the connecting-portion 9 in a manner so that, in use, it is sloping from the r is provided preferably with a nozzle as illustrated when said handle I I is not desired for any reason, a An improved feature of the connecting-portion 9 is the nubbin I3 formed on'the underside of said connecting-portion 9 to do away with the conventional elbow curve along which the flush liquid flows onto the handle thereof, and to afford a surface for the flush liquid to flow' down upon, instead of flowing along an elbow onto the handle. By this new mode of flow, which avoids'the handle -portion H, said han'dle portio'n' is not contaminated and is kept sanitary; I This nubbin [3 may be variouslyshape'd and is the lowest portion of the connecting-portion 9 and is below' the conn'ecting' end of the handle-portion ll.-
Improvement in the nozzle-portion I'D lies in that it has its connecting end |4 annularly e'n-' larged at two adjacent points and constricted therebetween to form a neck, adapted to be en'- gaged by the sphincter. A furtherimprovement is in that it has its free end I5 annularly enlarged to provide ample girth in which to form radially and laterally arranged counter-sunk clog resistant liquid dischar'ging orifices l6. Orifices not counter-sunk irrespective of where located are apt to olog i d co vf iii cdr d i t ex nds amen] the connecting means l a of the connnecting por in Figs. 2 and 3. The improvement in this nozzle resides in that it is provided with a plurality of ridges [9 formed on the core thereof extending radially spaced apart from the free end thereof to a point adjacent the flared connecting end thereof and with a plurality of channels 29 extending between the ridges [9. The ridges l9 are sufliciently projected to distend the vagina for effective therapy and the channels 20 are sufliciently deep to convey the liquid stream discharged by the nozzle-portion 10. This nozzleportion has the connecting end thereof flared to form an annular neck between the ends 2| of the ridges l9 and said flared end adapted to be engaged by the vaginal sphincter. Orifices 22 may be formed to communicate with the channels 20 and one may be formed in the free end of said nozzleportion.
