T0 WHOM I'I MAY CON CERN: i v
Be it known that I, WILLIAM POMEROY, of Brooklyn, county of Kings, and StatebfNew York, have invented an Improvement in Hernia-Pads; and I do hereby declare that the following isa full and exact descriptionfthereo reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the letters otreference marked thereon.-
Figure lrepresents a top view of my improved hernia-pad, with a portion ofthe leather covering removed to show the joint and the eccentric `ben`ding-device. I'
Figure 2 is a section, takenin the line x :v'of g. 1. `This-invention relates to a new and useful improvement in a pad for a hernia-truss, and consists in forming'the pad with4 a central transversejoint or hinge, provided with an eccentric on one side to work against a corrugated shoulder on the otherl side of the joint, for the purpose of bending lor erooking the pad like a fingerjoint, in order toadjust the bearing oi the eind of the pad upon a rupture, and thus hold it exactly in placeV as required for th'e comfort and cure of the patient. I
Itis well know-n to the medical profession that the human {inger is the best instrument for reducing a rup- -ture ofy the bowels, and holding it in place, the ends of the ingers catching exactly upon the protrudingpart, and by means of the crooking atthejiiipt, the rupture is under perfect control.
,My improvement is an imitation oflthe human finger'in its power of adaptation to and control over the rupture, ,and for this reason the improved pad is designated by me a hernia inger-pud;l
In the tivo figures, A represents a padcovcred with leather, and stuffed in the usual way, the body of the l -padbeing formed upon a base of two metal plates B C. The plate is a piece of spring-steel, which projects through, and is bent or curved at one end of the pad, to afford a fastening-support, having the nature of a spring, to which the arm A is attached by a sct-sc`row, and secured to the truss-belt or body-spring in the usual way, g A
The two plates B C are connected near the middle ofthe pndbya hinge-joint. ThespringfplatcB is stiffened atthe, end next to the joint by a top plate, F, upon which is'iitted and hung, on a. pivot, an eccentric,disk,
D, having a milled periphery that works against a corrugated shoulder on the end of the plate E, iittcd on the plate C, whereby the end of the pad A niay hebent or crooked, more or less, by turning the eccentric, D, as
shown in iig. 2, and held in position us desired.
What I claim as my invention, andrdcsrc to secure hy L etters'Patent, is-
The spring-plate B hinged to the plate C, and the milled eccentric, D, working againstthe shoulder-E,-
combinedhwith the pad A, constructed'and operating substantially as herein described. 4
