Abstract
Disclosed is an equipment for receiving surgical materials and/or liquid products for a surgical procedure. The equipment includes: a tray with a top face; and a tight surface film intended to be removably attached to the top face of the tray in order to form a sterile upper surface that is intended to receive the surgical materials and/or liquid products. The top face of the tray includes at least one recess, and the tight surface film, attached to the tray, forms at least one pocket extending inside the at least one recess and adapted to receive at least one of the surgical materials and/or liquid products.
Claims7
An equipment for receiving surgical materials and/or liquid products for a surgical procedure, wherein said equipment (1) comprises:
- a tray (2) having a main wall (21) that has two opposite faces:
- an upper face (211) forming an upper face of the tray (2), and a lower face (212), said main wall (21) comprising a peripheral edge (213) corresponding to a periphery edge of the tray (2), and
- a tight surface film (3), intended to be removably applied onto said upper face (211) of said tray (2) to form a sterile upper surface intended to receive said surgical materials and/or liquid products,
- wherein said upper face (211) of said tray (2) comprises at least one housing (23),
- wherein said tight surface film (3), applied onto said tray (2), forms at least one recess (35) that extends into said at least one housing (23) and that is adapted to receive at least one of said surgical materials and/or liquid products,
- wherein the tight surface film (3) consists of a flexible film intended to conform the upper face (211) of the tray (2),
- wherein the tray (2) includes means (5) for sticking said tight surface film (3) against said upper face (211) of the tray (2),
- wherein the sticking means (5) comprise channels (51) formed in said tray (2),
- wherein at least one of said channels (51) comprises:
- an upstream end (511), opening to the upper face (211) of said tray (2), and
- a downstream end (512), intended to be connected with air suction means (52),
- so as to cause a suction sticking of said tight surface film (3) against said upper face (211) of said tray (2),
- wherein said at least one channel (51) is arranged so that the upstream end (511) of the at least one channel opens to said at least one housing (23) of the upper face (211) of the tray (2),
- wherein the tray (2) includes a peripheral band (55) surrounding said at least one housing (23) of the tray (2), the peripheral band opens to at least one of said channels (51), and
- wherein the peripheral band (55) consists of a groove which opens said at least one channel (51), said groove being formed in said upper surface (211) of the tray (2), along the peripheral edge (213) of the main wall (21).
