Abstract
A clog removing device for medical tubing including a hand tool which is composed by handle members which have an electric system attached to one of the handle members. The hand tool has a gripping portion placed on one distal end of the handle members to grab the hand tool. The electric system is connected to a bottom which is placed on a top surface of the gripping portion to activate a couple of motors concentrically attached to cylindrical roller members. The hand tool is formed by the handle members which are interlocked by a fastening member which has a spring configuration to allow the hand tool open through the roller members by compressing the distal ends of the handle. The hand tool is configured to have inserted a medical tubing among the roller members and remove any inner substance thereof.
Claims5
A clog removing device for medical tubing, comprising:
- a hand tool assembly including a hand tool wherein a pair of handle members are interlocked by a central portion to form the hand tool;
- wherein said central portion receives a fastener to create a pivot that holds the pair of handle members together and allows pair of handle members to rotate around that central portion;
- wherein each of said pair of handle members has an L-shape, wherein a vertical component of each handle member is longer than the horizontal component;
- wherein said handle members comprise a first handle member and a second handle member;
- wherein said first handle member has a griping portion covering a portion of a length thereof below said central portion;
- wherein each handle member includes a roller member located at a proximal end of the horizontal component;
- an electric system assembly including a button, motors and a battery;
- wherein said battery is inserted into a bottom end of the first handle member;
- wherein said button is located on said gripping portion;
- wherein the motors are coupled to each proximal end of each handle member and said motors are attached to said roller member;
- wherein the button actuates the motors to rotate the roller members;
- and
- wherein a tube is placed between the roller members, when the roller members are actuated by said button, the roller members squeeze said tube, thereby forcing out obstructions inside said tube.

- wherein said handle members comprise a first handle member and a second handle member;
- wherein said first handle member has a griping portion covering a portion of a length thereof below said central portion;
- wherein said second handle member has a curved protrusion to denote the central portion of the hand tool where the fastener is inserted;
- wherein each handle member includes a roller member located at a proximal end of the horizontal component;
- wherein each roller member has a cylindrical shape;
- each roller member is made of rubber;
- an electric system assembly including a button, motors and a battery;
- wherein said battery is inserted into a bottom end of the first handle member;
- wherein said button is located on said gripping portion;
- wherein the motors are coupled to each proximal end of each handle member and said motors are attached to said roller member;
- wherein the button actuates the motors to rotate the roller members;
- wherein the electric system assembly is electrically wired inside the hand tool;
- and
- wherein a tube is placed between the roller members, when the roller members are actuated by said button, the roller members squeeze said tube, thereby forcing out obstructions inside said tube.
