Definitions
- a difficulty that sometimes exists with lightweight clamps is the tendency of the cord to slip when i the clamp is closed. This may result in the cord slipping to an area of the clamp where insufficient pressure is exerted and may, where the cord is cut off closely adjacent the clamp, result in the clamp slipping off the cord, even though the cord was correctly positioned therewithin.
- one of the principal objects of the present inventon is to produce an umbilical cord clamp which is provided with means for positively engaging the cord in a manner to prevent its slipping after the clamp is closed, and also to produce a cord clamp provided with means for -preventing the cord from slipping into areas of the clamp where insufiicient closing pressure is exerted.
- FIG. l is a side elevational view of an umbilical cord clamp embodying the present inventon
- FIG. 2 is a view like FIG. 1 showing the clamp closed position
- FIG. 3 is a top plan view of the clamp of FIG. 2;
- FIG. 4 is an end view taken along line 4-4 of FIG.
- PIG. 5 is an end view taken along line 5- 5 of FIG. 1;
- FIG. 6 is a sectional view taken along line 6-6 of FIG. 2.
- the clamp is in the form of a V-shaped member 10 made of resilient, fiexible material and preferably one which can be autoclaved before use. Nylon has been found to be an acceptable plastic for this purpose.
- the member 10 is provided with a pair of diverging arms 11 and 12 secured together at the apex of the V by an integral loop hinge 13.
- Looking means 14 is provided at the free end of the arm 11, the locking means taking the form of a catch having a stem portion 15 and a hook portion 16, engageable in a complementary locking portion 17 having a recess 18 and an overlying lip 19 engageable with the hook 16 as illustrated.
- the arms 11 and 12 are provided with enlarged finger pressure portions 21 and 22, which may be grasped between the thumb and forefinger to effect a closure.
- each of the arms 11 and 12 is provided with longitndinally extending grooves 23 and 24 forming a-cord-receiving channel illustrated most clearly in FIG. 6.
- the cord In utilizing cord clamps having an enlarged loop portion such as the loop 13, the cord occasionally will slip into the interior'of the loop through the entrance 25 as the clamp is being closed. Thus, the cord is located in an area where little or no pressure is exerted on it, or at least the pressure may be insufficient to provide an effective closure of the cord.
- the clamp of the present inventon is provided with a blocking member 26 which is formed integrally with the loop portion 13. The blocking member is arcuate in shape and adapted to close off the entrance 25 when the clamp is in the open position of FIG. 1, so that as the clamp is moved to the closed position, entrance of the cord into the interior of the loop is prevented.
- An umbilical cord clamp comprising a generally V-shaped member fabricated of fiexible material and formed by a pair of arms joined together at the apex of the V by an integral hinge-forming loop of substantial diameter, the free ends of the .arms being normally spaced apart, said arms being movable toward each other by a compressive force to clamp' the cord therebetween, the free ends of said arms carrying means for locking the arms together in clamping position, and an arcuate blocking member positioned within the loop to prevent entry of the cord into said loop upon clamping movement of the arms.
- An umbilical cord clamp comprising a generally V- shaped member fabricated of flexible material and formed by a pair of arms joined together at the apex of the V by an integral hinge-forming loop of substantial diameter, the free ends of the arms being normally spaced apart, said arms being movable toward each other by a compressive force to clamp the cord therebetween, the free ends of said arms carrying means for locking the arms together in clamping position, a longitndinally extending groove formed on the cord engaging surface of each arm, said grooves cooperatng to form a cordsreceiving channel when the arms are in clamping position, and an arcuate blocking member extending across the entrance to the interior of the loop at the juncture of the' arms therewith to prevent entry of :the cord into said loop upon clamping movement of the arms.
- An umbilcal cord clamp comprising a generally V-shaped member fabricated of fiexible material and formed by .a pair of arms joined together at the apex of the V by an integral hinge-forming loop of substantial diameter, the free ends of the arms being normally spaced apart, said arms being movable toward each other by a compressive force to clamp the cord therebetween, the free ends of said arms carrying means for looking the arms together in clamping position, a first longitudinal groove formed on one arm, a second longitudinal groove formed on the other arm, each of said grooves having a width of approximately one-third the width of the arm, said grooves being oppositely positioned so as to bring the corresponding edges of each groove in directly opposed relationship when the clamp is closed with the grooves thereby forming a unitary cord receiving channel of substantial extent When thev arms are in clamping position, and a blocking member within the confines of the loop to prevent entry of the cord into said loop upon clamping movement of the arms.
