page_text: LETTERS PATENT to Henri Adrien Bonneville, of the British and Foreign
Patent Offices, 8, Rue de la Chaussée d'Antin, Paris, France, and 90, Cannon
Street, in the City of London, Patent Agent, for an Invention of "A NEW
OR IMPROVED MEDICAL INJECTING OR IRRIGATING APPARATUS."-A com-
munication by Jean Adolphe Joltrain, of Trocadero, Passy, France.
PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION left by the said Henri Adrien Bonnoville at
the Office of the Commissioners of Patents on the 11th February 1882.
HENRI ADRIEN BONNEVILLE, of the British and Foreign Patent Offices, 8, Rue
de la Chaussée d'Antin, Paris, France, and 90, Cannon Street, in the City of
London, Patent Agent. A NEW OR IMPROVED MEDICAL INJECTING OF IRRIGATING
APPARATUS. A communication from Jean Adolphe Joltrain, of Trocadero, Passy,
France.
The invention relates to a new or improved medical injecting or irrigating
apparatus made entirely of soft and hard India rubber, baving neither valve,
piston, spring, tap or mechanism of any kind, and consequently always being in
perfect working order, and not liable to deterioration or requiring repair.
The invention is represented in the accompanying drawings, in which Fig. 1. is a
vertical, central section of the same, and Fig. 2, and 3, are vertical central sections
of modifications of parts of the same.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in the figures.
A is the body or recipient containing the liquid to be injected; it is made of
soft india rubber in the form of bellows, of which the edges are respectively
applied upon the top C and bottom B which are of hard india rubber by screw
nuts E E¹.
In the middle of the top or cover C, in an opening tapped for the purpose, there
is screwed a conical nozzle D of hard india rubber, upon which is adjusted one of
the ends of the india rubber tube F, of which the other end terminates in a

page_text: funnel G, of soft india rubber, which can be turned down upon itself, as shown by
the dotted lines. H, is the end pipe, which is merely forced tight into the funnel.
A special nipper, sliding along the pipe F, and consisting of a lever upon a pivot
between two jaws I, allows the liquid to flow, when the pressure of its short arm K
blade shaped is removed from the pipe F by lowering the long arm L; or prevents 5
the flow when the long arm L is raised, and the small arm brought against the tube
as shown by the dotted lines.
Fig. 2 represents a modification of the end pipe for injections. The vaginal pipe,
made of semi-hard india rubber is furnished with an obdurator M, of hard india
rubber which slides upon it, and with an additional end piece N pierced with 1
holes, and fitted to the upper end by means of a nozzle O, which can be removed at
pleasure.
Fig. 3 represents another modification for intestinal baths, in which the end pipe
is provided with a rectal obdurator P, made of hard india rubber.

Patent Agent. A NEW OR IMPROVED MEDICAL INJECTING OR IRRIGATING
APPARATUS. A communication from Jean Adolphe Joltrain, of Trocadero, Passy,
France.
The invention relates to a now or improved medical injecting or irrigating
apparatus made entirely of soft and hard india rubber, having neither valve,
piston, spring, tap, or mechanism of any kind, and consequently always being in
perfect working order, and not liable to deterioration or requiring repair.
The invention is represented in the accompanying drawings, in which Fig. 1 is a
vertical central section of the same, and Figs. 2 and 3 are vertical central sections
of modifications of parts of the same,
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts.
A is the body or recipient containing the liquid to be injected, and made of soft
india rubber in form of bellows of which the edges are respectively applied upon
the top C and bottom B which are of hard india rubber, by scrow nuts E E. In
the middle of the top or cover C, in an opening tapped for the purpose, there is
screwed a conical nozzle D of hard india rubber, upon which is adjusted one of the
ends of the india rubber pipe F, of which the other end terminates in a funnel G
of soft india rubber which can be turned down upon itself as shown by the dotted
lines. His the end pipe which is merely forced tight into the funnel. A special
nipper sliding along the pipe F and consisting of a lever upon a pivot between two
jaws I, allows the liquid to flow, when the pressure of its short blade-shaped arm is
removed from the pipe F by lowering the long arm L, or prevents the flow when
the long arm is raised and the small arm brought against the pipe as shown by
the dotted lines.
Fig. 2 represents a modification of the end pipe for injections. The vaginal pipe,
made of semi hard india rubber is furnished with an obdurator M of hard india
rubber which slides upon it, and with an additional end piece N pierced with holes
and fitted to its upper end by means of a nozzle O, which can be romoved at
pleasure.
Fig. 3 represents another modification for intestinal baths, in which the end pipe
is provided with a rectal obdurator P made of hard india rubber.
The apparatus is filled by pouring the liquid into the funnel, thus distending
the recipient; the end pipe is then fitted in the funnel and any air which may be in
the recipient is expelled with a slight pressure upon the recipient, after which the
passage is closed by raising the long arm L of the lever.
In order to work the apparatus, the passage is opened by lowering the long arm L
of the lever, and a slight pressure is brought to bear upon the recipient A to bring
the top Cand bottom B near together, or what is easier still, the recipient is turned
upside down and raised as high as the tube F inside will allow, upon which the
recipient acts like a syphon.
Having thus described the invention and the manner in which the same is to be
carried into effect,
I claim and desire to secure by Royal Letters Patent :
1st the arrangement of the recipient A in the form of bellows.
2nd The combination of the nine to the SLAL

page_text: 3rd the injection pipe and its combination with the sliding obdurator M and the
additional end piece N.
4th the rectal obdurator P, and its combination with the pipe H.
5th the nipper-tap K L.
In witness whereof, I, the said Henri Adrien Bonneville, have hereunto set my
hand and seal, this Twenty-first day of July, in the year of our Lord One
thousand eight hundred and eighty two.
