IMPROVEMENT IN TRUSSES FOR. INGUINAL lnlEPtNIA.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. @5,25% dated November 29, 1364.
To (LZZ whom it may concern:
Be it known that we, HENRY H. JORDAN in the county of Norfolk and State of Massachusetts, have invented an Improved Truss for the Cure or Alleviation of inguinal Hernia 5 and we do hereby declare the same to be fully described in the following specification and represented in the accompanying drawings, ot' which- Figure l denotes a front view, Fig. 2 a top view, and Fig. 3 a rear view, ot' such improved truss.
ln the said drawings, A denotes the pad of the truss, as extending` down from a body-belt, C, and as having an extra part or brace, B, to extend from it and the belt and go over and around the genitals of a person when the truss is in use, the said private parts or gen itals being received within a recess or open ing, K. From the lower part ot' the pad and the extra part or braceB there extend twobraeestraps, E F, which, when the truss may be in use, are to go between the legs ot' the wearer and around them, respectively, and be buckled to the body-belt by buckles Gr H, arranged near to the pad A and the part B and on the body-belt in manner as shown in the drawings. The body-belt has a buckle, I, arranged at or near one end of it, for the purpose of lix- V ing it around the abdomen ot' a person. and SYLVANUS JORDAN, residents of Roxbury,
While the truss is being worn, the part B extends into the groin opposite to that which receives the pad, and by pressure against the same will operate not only to advantage in supporting the pad, but will be useful in preventing further rupture of the intestines.
. By means ot' the extra part B, to span the genitals, and the two straps E F, to go between the legs and around the thighs, respectively, the pad A will be preserved in place, and be made to operate to much better advantage in supporting the ruptured part than it will be by arms and springs or other devices, such as are generally applied to the belt and pad, and, besides, our improved truss can be worn by a person with greater ease or more comfort than most others.
We claim as our invention- The improved inguinal truss, consisting of the extra part or brace B, the pad A, the body-belt G, and the two brace-straps E F, arranged and combined together substantially in manner as hereinbet'ore specied. HENRY H. JORDAN.
' witnesses; sYLvANUs JORDAN.
