SURGEON'S CASE,

Nos. 3, 4, 5, and 6.

Patented March 25, 1879.

[graphic]

In this form of Case the cylinder stands on end, which is reckoned by some operators an advantage in permitting a free flow of gas, but we have had no complaints of the original form as shown in Cases Nos. 1 and 2. To meet all demands we offer the two forms.

No. 3, Complete Apparatus, with 4J-gallon Bag, in stout Tin

Case, covered with Leather $37.75

No. 4, the same, but with 7-gallon Bag 39.00

With this appliance the bag is so suspended that while giving free inlet and outlet to the gas, it is less liable to damage than when lying upon the table or floor. The metal connections furnished by us heretofore will fit this attachment, and anyone having the tubing and bag arranged as in cuts of surgeon's cases can readily transfer them, care being taken to seal up the opening left by the removal of the small inlet tube.

The Yoke is provided with a holder for the inhaler when not in use, as shown by the dotted lines.

GAS-INHALER Iffo. 2.

This Inhaler we believe fully meets all the requirements, and we have therefore adopted it. It is constructed entirely of metal, except the mouth-piece and two valves, which are of hard rubber, so that it can be washed without injury to any of its parts.

The Inhaler is so constructed that there is a perfectly free passage of the air to and from the lungs, even the exhaling valve being held open when the patient is not required to breathe gas. In place of the two-way stopcock, the inventor has placed both valves in a prism-shaped casting. Through this casting a shaft passes, on which are two

arms. This shaft is provided with a bow, shaped like a letter
D, by means of which it is rotated by the thumb of the ope-
rator. Wlftn the bow is pressed in one direction, one of
the arms attached to the shaft on the inside of the cast-
ing presses against and holds open the exhaling valve,
allowing the air to pass freely to and from the lungs of the
patient, and at the same time the other arm rests against
the inhaling valve, closing the passage to the reservoir
which holds the gas, making it impossible for any gas to
escape. When the bow is pressed in the other direction
as far as it will go, it is caught and both valves are
thrown into action and left subject to the slightest breath of the patient.

"When sufficient gas has been administered, the operator touches the D-shaped bow, the supply of gas is automatically shut off, and all possibility of waste is prevented. The angle in the Inhaler causes the covered tubing to fall parallel to the breast of the patient, out of the way of the operator.

This Inhaler is simple in construction and not likely to get out of order.
