Abstract
Device for mounting onto a branched base conventional means for dispensing an intravenous solution. There is provided a simple and inexpensive clip for fixing to a branched, as T-shaped or L-shaped, base a rod such as that supporting the reservoir from which an intravenous solution is dispensed. A simple clip is provided with a plurality of, as three, resilient gripping means for grasping the components of said branched base whereby said clip is held against movement in all three basic directions and said clip is further provided with suitable receptacle means for receiving such rod.
Claims10
In a device for mounting an intravenous dispensing reservoir onto the frame structure of and for movement with a patient supporting device, such as a chair or table, said intravenous device having a reservoir and a rod for supporting said reservoir, the combination comprising:
- a tubular support means for receiving the rod of said intravenous equipment for support thereof;
- and
- clip means comprising a pair of gripping members having a common axis and means fixing said gripping members to said tubular support in spaced relation to each other and with said tubular support means extending substantially parallel to said common axis, said gripping members being of such size and shape as to be readily snappable onto a suitable portion of said frame structure, and a third gripping member mounted fixedly with respect to said pair of gripping members and tubular support means and oriented with its axis at an angle to, and intersecting, said common axis between said pair of gripping members, whereby to permit securement of said device simultaneously to two intersecting members of said frame structure and said reservoir supporting rod.
In a device for mounting an intravenous dispensing reservoir onto the frame structure of and for movement with a patient supporting device, such as a chair or table, said intravenous device having a reservoir and a rod for supporting said reservoir, the combination comprising:
- a tubular support means for receiving the rod of said intravenous equipment for support thereof;
- and
- clip means comprising a pair of gripping members having a common axis and each fixed with respect to and spaced from each other along said tubular support, said gripping members being of such size and shape as to be readily snappable onto a suitable portion of said frame structure, and a third gripping member mounted fixedly with respect to said pair of gripping members and tubular support means and oriented with its axis at an angle to, and intersecting, said common axis between said pair of gripping members, said clip means further including a body member, said spaced pair of gripping members being fixed to said body member, said third gripping members being fixed to one of said body member and a said gripping member of said pair, said tubular support means being fixed to and carried by said body member.
In a device for mounting an intravenous dispensing reservoir onto the frame structure of and for movement with a patient supporting device, such as a chair or table, said intravenous device having a reservoir and a rod for supporting said reservoir, the combination comprising:
- a tubular support means for receiving the rod of said intravenous equipment for support thereof;
- and
- clip means comprising a pair of gripping members having a common axis and each fixed with respect to and spaced from each other along said tubular support, said gripping members being of such size and shape as to be readily snappable onto a suitable portion of said frame structure, and a third gripping member mounted fixedly with respect to said pair of gripping members and tubular support means and oriented with its axis at an angle to, and intersecting, said common axis between said pair of gripping members, including also manually tightenable means for holding said rod rigidly within said tubular support means.
