nEDIcATon.
' Application led February 1i`6, 1923. Serial No. 619,525.
To' all @cham it may concern:
Be it known that I, EDWARD GERON, a
citizen of the United States, residing at Chicago, in the county of Cook and State of Illinois, have invented new and usefulImprovenients in Medicators, of which the following is a specification.
My. invention relates to medieators off' the suppository type, the invention having for its primary object the provision of an improved device of this kind which is particmedicator for more painless insertion into ularly adaptedfor insertion -into the rectal or pelvic passages of the body and which will assure a highly etlicient diffusion of a medicament throughout the surrounding tlssues of the passage. v
Another important object of the invention to provide a medicator of the character set forth which is designed to conform itself in use to the natural or unnatural positions of the passages in which it is inserted, and which will thus be made adaptable to the individual anatomical and physiological requirements of each user.
A. further object of the invention is to furnish a novel and improved means for reducing the diametrical dimensions of the the passage to be treated, and whereby communication islpermitted through the medicator after it has been positioned in the passage.
lVit-h the above and other objects in view, as will become more apparent as the description proceeds, the invention comprises a novel combination and arrangement of parts to be. hereinafter described and claimed, and in order that the same may be better understood, reference is had to the accompanying drawing forming a part of this speciieation.
In the drawing,
Figure 1 is an elevation showing the application of the invention;
Fig. 2 is a central longitudinal section through the medicator illustrating. my improved suppository for compressing the same;
Fig. 3 is a side elevation of the medicator with the suppository removed;
Fig. 4 is a central longitudinal section through the medicator-compressing suppository;
Fig. 5 is a section on the line 5-5 of Fig. 3;
Fig. 6 is a similar view taken on the line' 6 6 of Fig. 2, and
Fig. 7 is an end elevation of the medicator.
Referring specifically to the drawing, wherein like referenceA numerals designate like parts throughout the several views, numeral 8 denotes my improved medicator as a whole, the same being formed of rubber or other' similar pliable vulcanizable Ina-. teria] whiclris composed of two elongated concavo-convex f sections 9 and l1 as best shown inV Fig. 5, which latter are provided with raised threaded portions 10 and 10l respectively.' These threaded sections 1() and 10a of the sections 9 and 11 are molded lirm so asio maintain the arcuate shape of said opposed sections under pressure, and the section 11 is smaller in width and thicker than the section 9 fora purpose Vwhich ywill presently appear. Connecting these opposed arcuate portions 9 and 11 are substantially plane flexible Walls 12 running throughout the length of said sections. Between the adjacent threaded portions of the sections 9 and 11 are intervening elastic portions, the purpose of which is to permit Hexing of the medicator to conform it to the passage into which it is inserted. Upon the lower end of the medicator 8 there is formed adjacent its extremity, a concavo-convex circumferential projection 18, which is formed of rubber or other flexible substance, being vulcanized to the body of the medicator, the end of which projects through the center of the circumferential projection 13, which latter is provided with radial supporting ribs 13a for yieldably maintainingits contour.
The end of the medicator 8 is provided with substantially wedge shaped apertures 15 for the reception of cotton, gauze or other material for carrying hygienic or antiseptic dressings that may be utilized. Upon this extension 14 of the medicator 8 is carried a cord 16 theend of which carries a ring 17, the purpose of the cord and ring being to better facilitate withdrawal of the medicator fromthe passage.
My improved suppository for compressing the medicator to reduce its diametrieal dimensions to facilitate insertion comprises a body portion of substantially cylindrical configuration, which is provided with a central longitudinal concavity 19'as shown in Fig. 4, this latter being internally threaded as shown at 20, the purpose of this construction being to permit the medicator to be screwed within the suppository.
Upon reference to Figs. 2 and 4. it will be noted that the body portionof the suppository is formed with a plurality of annular conca-vo-convex portions 18 which are convex upon their upper surfaces. to facilitate insertion of suppository, the lower sur-' faces being .concave to retard'the downward movement-of the medicator and suppository and to prevent them from being dislodged from the proper position in the passage, by means other than those provided therefor.
The suppositfioy will be formed of a suitable medicament r treating t-he passage, and will be made soluble by the heat in the passage. The lower end of the suppository is of substantially cup-like form asv shown at 22 forcompressing the circumferential projection 13 of the medicator to permit its insertion withinthe passage. The upper end of the suppository is reduced and formed with a radual convex slope as shown at 2l `to facilitate its insertion into the passage.
proach. to
.and rolling the edges ofthe section 9 upwardly and inwardly, the walls 12, by reason of their flexibility will be 'folded outwardly' 'and downwardlyvas shown in Fig. 6, thus compressing the medicator to give it a cylindrical cross section and reducing its diametrical dimensions. .The arcuate formation of thesection 11 will 'be maintained by reason of the thickened and relatively rigid construction thereof and a longitudinal channel or opening 24 will be,l maintained through the medicator when `the'suppository is in place, as clearly shown in Fig. 2. After the end of the medicatorv 8 `has been compressed and started, in the threads of the concavity 19 of the suppository, the remaining longitudinal portion thereof may be screwed therein, in an obvious manner until the circum-ferential projection 13 has been receivedand compressed within the. cup-like portion 22 of the suppository: as previously de- The. channelv 24 permits the 'introduction of a medicament therethrough after the medicator with its suppository has been posltioned in the passage, and this construction also permits the escape of liquids and gases from the passage while the lnedicator 1s still in place. Electrical treatment of theportion of the passage beyond the upper end offthe medicator may also be had, the electrode beingintrodueed through the passage 24.
' In'usingl the medicator, the suppository is screwed thereon as he-reinbefore described,
until the cup-like end of the suppositorjv 22 i sage to be treated. As will be evident from an inspection of Figs. 1 and 2, the weakened construction of the Walls of the supposito'ry by reason of the'annular grooves23 therein permits t-he breaking thereof upon fleet-ion of the medicator togconform `tothe cause of the passage. The suppository having been broken into disk like sections 18 las shown in Fig. .1, may now be flexed and will follow the vcourse of the passage. It will be understood that the walls 12 of the medicator have suiicient elasticity to normally strive to return to 'their original positions. Therefore, after the insertion of the suppository into the passageway and the subsequent melting thereof, thewalls 12 of the medicator will be forced out-wardlyto their normal positions thus spreading the portions of the suppository to the surrounding tissues and insuring a. more beneficial effect therefrom. The circumferential projection 13 of the medicator serves to cooperate with the lower end of the rectum'or othe-r passage to prevent withdrawal of the medicator therefrom. The flexible constructionof both medicator and suppository when in use permits their passage around irregular' growths or obstructions which might be met in the rectum or other passage being treated. I have found that beneficial results may be derived. inv using this medicator from the effects of the gentle dilating pressures which it exerts when it has been released from compression, these dilating pressures having a corrective effect on strictures and other irregularities in the walls of the rectum.
Another vital improvement-of this medicator is that when in use i-n the rectum, it allows the sphincter muscles to fiex and relax naturally arid there is no part of the medicatorl surrounded by or -dist'ending the muscles of the orifice of the anus, except thel fine cord 16 which is almost imperceptible to the user. muscles and the promotion of restwhich is essential in curing piles, fissure, fistula and other diseases of the rectum will be assured. While I- have illustrated the invention for treatment off the rectum, yet it will be understood that the medicator and suppository may be made of different dimensions for use in medicating the vagina and the genital passages adjacent to it, and also for inedicatingthe urethra of males or females, and the nasal, aural, and throat passages.
While I have described and illustrated the preferred embodiment of the invention as required by the patent statutes, it will be distinctly understood that I do not mean to limit myself strictly thereto, since various Complete relaxation of these changes and modifications wmay be made -therein within the spirit and scope of the appended claims.
