  • Tester 10 comprises a main body 12 which is formed from a transparent plastic material.
  • Body 12 can be conveniently formed in an injection molding process by molding two halves of the body which are then welded together.
  • Body 12 is generally rectangular in shape and contains a longitudinal passage 14 which communicates with a vertical passage 16. Passage 14 extends out of one end of body 12 and receives a mouthpiece assembly 18.
  • Mouthpiece assembly 18 can be a hollow rubber element having a plurality of ribs 20 which engage with the internal surface of passage 14 to removably hold the mouthpiece assembly within the passage.
  • On the inner end of mouthpiece assembly 18 is a flapper valve 22 which is oriented to allow gas to pass through the mouthpiece assembly into passage 14, but not in the opposite direction.
  • the outer end of mouthpiece assembly 18 contains a mouthpiece 24 through which a user of the device exhales.
  • Mouthpiece assembly 13 can be formed as a unitary unit which is inserted into body 12 after the body is manufactured.
  • the mouthpiece assembly 18 is removable so that different mouthpieces can be used for different individuals to improve the sanitary nature of the device.
  • a thin, disposable plastic mouthpiece could be used over mouthpiece 24 to reduce the cost of changing mouthpieces.
  • Stem 26 When a subject breathes through mouthpiece assembly 18, his or her breath enters passage 14 and passes through a stem 26 positioned between passage 14 and passage 16, as shown in FIG. 4.
  • Stem 26 is hollow to provide communication between passages 14 and 16.
  • stem 26 includes an outward bulged area 28 which snap-fits within the bottom of a cartridge 30.
  • Cartridge 30 is shown in FIGS. 1 through 4 and comprises a transparent shell 31 which is preferably formed from glass, plastic or other transparent material. Shell 31 has an opening 32 formed in the bottom thereof. An annular seal 34 is attached to opening 32. Seal 34 can be for ⁇ eddown over the top of stem 26 and bulge 28 to snap-fit around the bottom portion of the stem.
  • cartridge 30 can be slid into passage 16 and snap-fits onto stem 26 which holds the cartridge within the passage. It will, of course, be understood that the diameter of passage 16 is made sufficiently large to accept cartridge 30 without binding or sticking.
  • a flapper valve 36 is disposed inside cartridge 30 above opening 32 and oriented to allow gas to enter upwardly into cartridge 30, but not to allow liquid to leave the cartridge.
  • the interior of cartridge 30 is filled with a solution 37 which is formulated to change color when combined with alcohol.
  • the color of solution 37 changes progressively in accordance with the amount of alcohol combined with the solution.
  • Solution 37 can comprise potassium dichromate and sulfuric acid. This solution is yellow in color, and the color change produced is in proportion to the amount of alcohol in the breath of the user passed through the solution. In other words, the intensity of the colorchanges as the amount of alcohol increases.
  • silica gel 54 Disposed directly above flapper valve 36 is a quantity of silica gel 54 through which gas from flapper valve 36 must pass before entering solution 37.
  • Silica 37 will tend to draw moisture from the subject's breath and keep the mixture passing into solution 37 free of water.
  • a wool plug 56 can optionally be placed over the silica 54 to hold the silica in place on top of valve 36 and to aid in keeping solution 37 entrapped in shell 31, and separated from silica 54.
  • FIG. 3 shows the top of a cartridge 30.
  • An insert 38 is disposed in the open top 39 of the cartridge shell 31.
  • Insert 38 can be formed of rubber and contains a flapper valve 40 on its bottom.
  • Flapper valve 40 is oriented upwardly so that gas can exit cartridge 30.
  • Flapper valve 40 forms a portion of a shell 41 which slides into glass shell 31.
  • a quantity of silica gel 48 is disposed.
  • Silica 48 acts as a drying agent to absorb any spray created by gas bubbling up through solution 37 and flapper valve 40.
  • the silica 48 absorbs the solution and allows the gas to exit through the top of rubber shell 41.
  • a perforated insert 42 is disposed across the top of the silica insert 48 in order to hold the silica in place and yet allow gas to exit.
  • a wool plug 53 may be attached to the bottom of the flapper valve 40 to assist in holding solution 37 within shell 31.
  • testing device 10 also includes an orifice plate 60 is generally rectangular in shape and fits within rectangular opening 64 which is formed in body 12.
  • the dimensions of plate 60 are such that it completely blocks off passage 14 except for hole or opening 62.
  • the dimensions of plate 60 are such as to allow the plate to slide within opening 64. This movement is produced laterally across the body 12 in opening 64 by grasping handle 66 which is integral with plate 60 and protrudes from hole 64.
  • grasping handle 66 which is integral with plate 60 and protrudes from hole 64.
  • the exposed portion of hole 62 becomes progressively smaller, thus making it more difficult for the subject to pass breath through passage 14. Accordingly, the air flow through passage 14 can be controlled by moving plate 60 into or out of hole 64.
  • each orifice plate 60a, 60b and 60c has a different sized central opening. Rather than controlling the flow through passage 14 by moving plate 60 progressively into or out of hole 64, plate 60 can be removed entirely from hole 60 and replaced by whichever one of plates 60a, 60b or 60c that has the proper size central opening.
  • the plates 60a, 60b and 60c are marked with indicia shown at 61a, 61b and 61c to indicate the size of the opening in the plate.
  • the alcohol tester can be provided in kit form containing one body 12, a plurality of cartridges 30, and a plurality of orifice plates 60a, 60b , 60c or one adjustable orifice plate 60.
  • Each individual cartridge 30 can be inserted into body 12 and removed from the body after use.
  • stick-on covers 44 and 46 can be attached to the top and bottom, respectively, of each cartridge 30 as shown in FIG. 1. Prior to use, cover 44 is removed from the cartridge 30. Cover 46 can either be removed or can be left on to be pierced by stem 26 when the cartridge is snapped into body 12.
  • Body 12 also contains fixed cartridges 50, 51, 52 and 53 which are permanently mounted in the body with two cartridges being placed on each side of removable cartridge 30.
  • Cartridges 50 through 53 contain precolored solutions 54 through 57. These solutions are indicative of different alcohol levels in the subject's breath. Appropriate markings can be affixed to each cartridge indicating the approximate alcohol content of the subject's breath. Accordingly, after use, the color of solution 37 in removable cartridge 30 is compared to the color of solutions 54 through 57 to determine the actual alcohol content of the subject's breath. Fixed cartridges 54 through 57 are mounted on opposite sides of cartridge 30 to place them closer to cartridge 30 and thereby improve the ease of this comparison.
  • a mouthpiece assembly 18 is inserted in passage 14.
  • the subject blows through the mouthpiece and adjusts orifice plate 60 until it takes approximately 15 seconds to completely exhale through the mouthpiece.
  • a cartridge 30 is then inserted into passage 16 and snapped into place over stem 26. Peel-off top 44 is removed from the cartridge and the device is ready for use.
  • the subject is advised to swallow several mouthfulls of water before using.
  • the subject then blows into mouthpiece 24 and the subject's breath passes through flapper valve 22 and through hollow stem 26. Since stem 26 penetrated annular seal 34 when the cartridge 30 was inserted, the user's breath passes through stem 26 into the cartridge.
  • Breath then passes flapper valve 36 and bubbles into and through the solution 37 of potassium dichromate and sulfuric acid.
  • the breathgases pass upwardly through the- solution and out through flapper valve 40, silica 48 and perforated top 42. Any spray of the solution €hrough valve 40 is captured by the silica 48.
  • the subject blows several full breaths through the mouthpiece to insure that adequate contact is made with solution 37.
  • the alcohol in the breath combines with the solution and the color of the solution begins to change in intensity in proportion to the amount of alcohol in the breath. After waiting approximately ninety seconds, the color change of solution 37 becomes stable and can be compared to the colors of solutions 54 through 57 and matched up.
  • the user then reads the label on a matching solution to determine his or her blood alcohol content.
  • cartridge 30 can be removed from passage 16 and disposed or saved for future reference. Another cartridge is then inserted in passage 16 and the device is ready for another testing by the same person or by another subject.
  • the device When using the tester 10, it is essential that the device be in a vertical position with cartridge 30 on top of the body 12 for proper operation in order that the subject's breath can bubble up through the solution 37.
  • the subject When in use, the subject is protected from contact with solution 37 by the two flapper valves 22 and 36. If additional protection is required, additional flapper valves can be used.
  • a vial approximately 75-100 mm long and 6 mm wide is filled with an inert silica gel.
  • the preferred packing length of silica gel is 25 mm approximately in the center portion of the vial.
  • Additional inert packing material such as glass wool may advantageously be employed at each end of the vial for securing the contents of the vial.
  • the silica gel may be oreimpregnated or may be impregnated with the alcohol-sensitive solution after packing.
  • 6-12 drops of the alcohol-sensitivesolution are added to the vial containing a 25 mm area of silica gel.
  • the solution is absorbed by the silica gel uniformly in a short period of time, the top closure member as described above is then added.
  • This particular configuration of the vial has an advantage over the typeof vial containing solution in that smaller amounts of the alcohol-sensitive solution may be employed.
  • the color change upon contact with alcohol provides a gradual color spectrum in the silica gel.
  • the initial potassium dichromate, K 2 Cr 2 O 7 is yellow in color and the final reacted product, chromic sulfate, Cr 2 (SO 4 ) 3 , is green.
  • the intensity of color from yellow to green will provide the comparison.
  • the color change will usually be displayed as a gradual change over the lengthof the silica gel. For example, in a 25 mm long area of packed silica gel, the alcohol content of the subject's breath will be proportional to the length of area changed from the original yellow to green.
  • the area of silica gel first coming into contact with the subject's breath will change color first due to the reaction of the alcohol.
  • the area at the end of the 25 mm packing may not come in contact with any alcohol if all the alcohol is reacted, thus this area will remain yellow.
  • the width of the zone of color change is demonstrated as being proportional to the breath alcohol. It is determined that a lower range of breath alcohol detected is about 0-03% by volume alcohol in the subject's blood while the upper range detected is about 0.17%.
  • a color change in the 25 mm packingshowing green color about 8-12 mm or half way up the column indicates a level of from 0.05 to 0.15% alcohol. Green color more than half way up the column indicates the subject's alcohol level could be above the 0.15% level.
  • the results in this example are not quantitative and must, therefore, be interpreted.
  • the advantage of this embodiment rests in the fact the subject will see a definite color change brought about by the alcohol in his breath. The larger the zone of color change (green) the more alerted the subject will be.
  • Bag 68 attaches to shell 31 by elastic member 72 which is attached to the open end of bag 63 and snap-fits over flared end 39.
  • the use of bag 68 improves the accuracy of each test. However, in order to even further increase testing accuracy, the amount of "ALVEOLAR.” air passed through tester 10 should be increased. This is accomplished by forming bag 63 with a thin area shown at 7'4. When bag 68 becomes full and the pressure in the bag reaches a predetermined level, weakened, thin area 74 ruptures and the bag "pops" to increase the flow of alveolar air through cartridge 30 .
  • a bag formed of strong material could be provided with a pressure relief valve which is designed to open abruptly at a predetermined pressure.
  • tester 10 can be used in two ways. For someone who is in a hurry, the "tester can be used without the bag 68 to provide a basic, preliminary screening test for alcohol. With bag 68 on, the results become more accurate and more quantitative since a known quantity of air flows through cartridge 30.
