Definitions

  • This invention relates to certain novel improvements in releasing apparatuses for childbirths. 1
  • the main objector" the invefi is' 'toprovide aj device in the shape of a suction cup to be placed on ⁇ the forward protruding portion of the head er the child during birth, and effectively adhere to the head to permit the head to be subjected to a drawing force.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide a device of the said kind which is possible to adhere to the scalp of the head in spite of the sliding mucous fluid on the scalp during birth.
  • a further object of the invention is to provide a device of the said kind which will effectively prevent injuries to the scalp in spite of its loose condition on the head cartiage.
  • the invention consists in a suction cup with a draw grip and a suction mouth with a ring-shaped foot of elastic material, the mouth opening of the cup being provided with a perforated strainerlike cover as a support and suction distributor for the sliding scalp of the head.
  • Figure 1 is a vertical sectional view of the suction cup in one embodiment
  • Figure 6 is a vertical section view of the top of the suction cup in another embodiment.
  • Figure 7 a similar sectional view in afurther embodiment of the suction cup.
  • the suction cup 1 of stiff material such as metal, hard rubber, plastics or such like and of preferably half-spheric shape has a foot 2 of elastic material as soft rubber or the like surrounding the suction mouth 3.
  • This foot may belong to a rubber cup 4 covering a portion of the outer surface of the suction cup 1 and in this way securing the rubber foot to the suction cup.
  • the ring edge 5 of the suction cup around the mouth is resting on the rubber foot in the corner between the foot and the rubber cup wall therethrough transmitting the atmospheric pressure acting upon the suction cup to the corresponding ring surface in said corner of the foot.
  • the foot has in this embodiment the shape of a ring flange 6 extending inwards and narrowing the mouth in reference to the cup edge 5. Above the mouth there is freely inserted a perforated strainerlike cover 7 lying like a more shallow cup within the suction cup touching the latter near the cup edge 5 and being prevented by the foot from falling out.
  • a chain 10 is drawn through the hose serving as a draw grip.
  • the suction cup In use the suction cup is applied to the protruding forward portion of the childs head during the birth.
  • the vacuum pump sucks the air out of the cup the atmospheric pressure on the suction cup will press the foot of the cup against the head and the loose scalp 11 will slide into the suction cup and press against the strainer.
  • the scalp On account of the narrowed suction mouth the scalp will increase somewhat in width within the cuplike strainer and add to the secure holding of the scalp.
  • the elastic foot of the suction cup maybe mdifie
  • the air pressure is concerts trate on the aid ring portion surface of the foot with gh force o hold on in spite of the. mucous fluid; .In Fig. 2 the foot 1-3 is widenedputwards, and the ringpdge 5 of the cup is resting on a ledge 14 of the wallet.
  • the execution of the feet 15 in -Fig, 5 is a e pm n ther of as he foot here is widened also sg- 4 sh w a fee 1.6 arehrshaped'incross ct i y channel 17 in ommunication with the suction room of the Cup so that the foot ialsofserves as in sucker.
  • the foot 18 in Fig. 5 isa development .Of the foot in Fig.
  • the suction cup 18 differs from the suction cup of Fig. 1 only in reference to the connection construction at the top of the cup.
  • a tube 19 of stiff material as metal, hard rubber or such like is used instead of the previous hose, and in this case the tube itself is able to serve as a draw grip.
  • a ball bearing is used for the tube connection.
  • the tube is screwed into a thoroughgoing bore in the ball 20, and a flanged-out portion 21 of the cup wall in a top opening serves as a bearing.
  • a disk 22 secured by a nut 23 maintains the ball in position, and a rubber ring 24 between the disk and the bearing serves as an air-tightening ring.
  • the draw grip 25 preferably consisting of a line or wire, and the suction hose 26 are separately attached to the suction cup.
  • the strainer 7 may if desired be attached to the suc' tion cup, but the free inserting of the strainer described above will facilitate the cleaning and disinfection within the suction cup.
  • the foot of soft rubber prevents the scalp from being injured which scalp when entering the strainer will slide along the lithely yielding inner foot flange.
  • a releasing apparatus for childbirth consisting of a suction cup with connection means for an air discharger and provided with a draw grip and a suction mouth with a ringshaped foot of elastic material, the mouth opening being provided with a perforated strainerlike cover as a support and a suction distributor for the scalp of the childs head.
  • a releasing apparatus for childbirth consisting of a suction cup with connection means for an air discharger and provided with a draw grip and a suction mouth with a ringshaped foot of elastic material, the mouth opening being provided with a perforated strainerlike cover as a support and a suction distributor for the scalp of the childs head, the strainerlike cover having the shape of a more shallow cup within the suction cup, the suction mouth being narrowed in reference to the width of the strainerlike cover permitting a widening of the scalp insides of the mouth. 7
