VINIPROVEED SPLINT FOR FRAGTURE 0F CLAVICLE, 8:0.
The Schedule referred to in. these Letters Patent and making part of the same.
To allrwhoml it may concern Be it known that I, HAYNEs L. RICHARDSON, of the city of New York, iu the county and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Splnts, for Fractures of the Clavicle, Humerns, and Scapula; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, which will enable those skilled in the ait to understand and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming part of this specification,
` of whichder or armon the opposite side of the person, and securing the comfort of the patient.V p
My improvement consists in constructing 4a splint in two principal parts, made 'of someexible; but moderately stiff materiallike`.leather, coveringa paste-` board foundation, hard rubber,or papier-mache. lThe larger one of the parts is asemtc'ylindi'ioal piece, fitted uponv the side of the person, below the armpitand `the smaller one is also a semi-cylindrical piece, tted to the arm, as shown clearly in iig. 1. Besides these main pieces forming the splint, there is also a crescentshaped pad attached to them, which is fitted under the arm. ,This steadies and assists in keeping the splint in place.
The arm-piece A is fastened to the side-piece B by' rivets a a a at the middle, with a space left between them sucient to permit the passage through of ad: hesive straps, for `attaching the splint to the person,
The arm-pit pad C is also fastened to the pieces A B by rivets, or in any other suitable manner..
,My improved compound semi-cylindrical splint is applied alike to fractures of the clavicle, humerus, and scapula, with great ease and dispatch. It is secured with adhesive straps, by three 'or more attachments, to the side', axilla, and arm of the patient. After the splint hasbeen adjusted, the fore-arm is flexed in front ofthe chest in a right-angle position, supported by a sling from the neck.
Having desclibed my invention,
What 4I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent,'s-
The improved compound splint, for fractures of the clavcle,'humerus, and scapula, formed of the semicylindrical arm-pieceA,'a-nd the semi-cylindrical side--v piece-,13, with-or without the-.ariny-pit pad' O, constructed andl applied substantially; as described.
' HAYNES L'. RICHARDSON.
