Non-invasive pain relief apparatus

Details

Inventors: Eglauf, Douglas R.; Panio, Joseph; Schick, George;
Assignee: Eglauf; Douglas R. (White Plains, NY)
Primary Examiner: Burr; Edgar S.
Assistant Examiner: Cohen; Moshe I.
Attorney, Agent or Firm:

The present invention is directed to a medical device which mechanically applies and maintains pressure to a pressure point to relieve pain. The device includes a locking mechanism to lock an adjustable clamp to a selected position to apply a selected amount of pressure and a fine tuning mechanism to precisely adjust the amount of pressure. A mechanical release and a safety device are also provided to release pressure if the exerted pressure exceeds a safe amount.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION Accordingly, it is the object of the present invention to overcome these and other drawbacks of the prior art and to provide a medical device capable of applying and maintaining pressure in a mechanical way which is simple, harmless and effective.
It is another object of the present invention to provide a medical device that can lock into position so that constant pressure may be applied and where fine tuning of the amount of pressure may be effected.
