Description
UNTTED STATE 1 PATENT OFFICE. v
GERARD JOHN VAN SOHOTT, OF PASSAIC, NEW JERSEY, ASSIGNOR TO HIMSELF AND OSCAR DRESSLER, OF PASSAIO, NEW JERSEY.
CLIP-APPLIER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 721,480, dated February 24, 1903,
7, Application filed October 1, 1902.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, GERARD JOHN VAN SOHOTT, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Passaic, in the county of Passaic and State of New Jersey, have invented a new and Improved Olip-Applier, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
The invention relates to surgical appliances; and its object is to provide a new and improved clip applier more especially designed for engaging and pressing a clip in position on a superficial flesh wound to close the same, the clip being preferably of the com struction shown and described in the application for Letters Patent of the United States, Serial No. 108,661, filed by me May 23, 1902.
The invention consists of novel features and parts and combinations of the same, as I will be more fully described hereinafter and then pointed out in the claims.
A practical embodiment of the invention is represented in the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, in which similar characters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the views.
Figure 1 is an enlarged perspective view of the improvement. Fig. 2 is a sectional side elevation of the same, and Figs. 3 and lt-arc perspective Views of the clips on which the applier is used.
The clip-applier is preferably in the form of forceps, having spring-prongs A A united at one end and provided at their free ends andon the inner faces with transverse recesses or grooves A, adapted to engage projections or eyes B, extending outwardly on the terminals of a clip B, made of a flexible non-resilientmaterial, such as aluminium. The free ends of the spring-prongs are provided with angular arms A having recesses A similar to the recesses A and likewise adapted to engage the projections or eyes of a clip. By arranging the prongs with the arms'A. the operator is enabled to apply a clip to a wound with the clip standing in alinement with the prongs or at angles thereto, according to the location of the wound on the body. The free ends of the prongs and arms A are formed on their inner opposite faces with grooves A to allow of using the applier on the clip B, made of wire (see Fig. 4) in- Serial No. 1251484- (No modelJ two or more pieces after the wound is closed and healed to allow convenient removal of the clip, especiallyin case the projections or eyes have been sunken into the flesh during the healing process.
In using the device the operator places the clip in an open position between the prongs of the forceps, so that the eyes or projections B are seated in the recesses A or A and then the operator takes hold of the skin at opposite sides of the woundand presses the skintogether and then applies the clip over the skin parts pressed together and finally closes the prongs, so that the clip B firmly clamps the sides of the skin, and at the same time the pins B of the clip pass through the skin, so as to hold the clip in a clamped position on, the skin. When the clip is in position, the operator releases the pressure on the prongs of the forceps, so that the prongs open by the resiliency of the forceps, and thereby release'the clip. Now by the arrangement described the clip is securely seated in the retainers formed by the recesses on the free ends of the prongs, at the inner faces thereof, to allow the operator to convene iently hold the clip, place it in position on the wound, and bend the clip for closing the wound, as above described.
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent- 1. A clip appliance including a pair of primary jaws, having parallel flat faces adapted to come into engagement with each other, registering transverse recesses and longitudinal grooves in said jaws toform a seat for the eyes and the shanks of the clip respectively, and cooperating angular arms proj ecting from said jaws neartheir free'ends to form an auxiliary pairof jaws, said auxiliary jaws also presenting parallel flat faces to each other, said faces forminga continuation of the faces of the primary jaws, and having transverse recesses'and grooves similar to the recesses and grooves of said primary jaws, as specified and shown.
2. A clip appliance including a pair of jaws having parallel flat faces adapted to come into engagement with each other,registering transverse recesses and longitudinal grooves in said jaws to form a seat respectively for the eyes and the shanks of the clip, and a cutter on said jaws for severing the clip when it is desired to remove the same from the wound,
allel to each other when the clip is applied to a wound, as specified and for the purpose set forth.
4:. A clip appliance including a pair of primary jaws having transverse recesses an d longitudinal grooves to form a seat for the eyes and the shanks of the clip respectively, and angular arms projecting from said jaws near their free ends to form an auxiliary pair of jaws, said auxiliary jaws also having transverse recesses and grooves similar to the recesses and grooves of the said primary jaws, as set forth.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
GERARD JOHN VAN SOI'IOTT.
