Noise attenuating high-volume suction tip with automatic integral on demand vacuum release valve mechanism

A system comprising:

• a vacuum source;
• a suction conduit attached to the vacuum source, and
• a suction tip on the suction conduit, wherein the suction tip comprises:
• a tubular body with peripheral side wall, a vacuum source end attached to the suction conduit, and a functional orifice distal the vacuum source end;
• a vacuum release orifice comprising an aperture in a wall of the tubular body between the functional orifice and the vacuum source end;
• and
• a plurality of tubes retained within a lumen of the tubular body, wherein the tubes form a debris trap to prevent evacuation of a suctioned material larger than a diameter of the tubes, and have a longitudinal axis substantially parallel to a longitudinal axis of the tubular body and provide within and around the tubes at least one channel for transmitting a suctioned material from the functional orifice of the tubular body to the vacuum source end, and wherein the tubes further comprise a surface treatment selected from at least one of micro-scale and nano-scale structures, and wherein:
• if the functional orifice is open, an exterior wall of a first tube engages an interior wall of the tubular body and closes the vacuum release orifice, and
• if the functional orifice is at least partially blocked, a compressible side wall of a second tube collapses away from the interior wall of the tubular body to disengage the exterior wall of the first tube from the vacuum release orifice and wherein vacuum flow is maintained toward the vacuum source end of the tubular body through an accessory channel between the exterior wall of the first tube and the internal surface of the tubular body.

A kit comprising

• a suction conduit;
• a suction tip comprising a tubular body with peripheral side wall, a vacuum source end suitable for attachment to the suction conduit, and a functional orifice distal the vacuum source end, and a vacuum release orifice comprising an aperture in a wall of the tubular body between the functional orifice and the vacuum source end;
• and
• at least one compressible tube suitable for insertion into a lumen of the tubular body, wherein the tubes form a debris trap to prevent evacuation of a suctioned material larger than a diameter of the tubes, wherein the tubes further comprise a surface treatment selected from at least one of micro-scale and nano-scale structures, and wherein, when retained within the lumen, an exterior surface of a side wall of the at least one compressible tube closes the vacuum release orifice.
