  • Patent number: 10456520
    Abstract: A hospital bed rail attachment apparatus constructed of molded silicone or another form of elastomeric substance. An embodiment of the present disclosure includes an elongated member having a first appendage, a second appendage, and a central portion extending between the first appendage and the second appendage. The first appendage may include a first protrusion and a first receiving portion being configured to receive the first protrusion. The second appendage may include a second protrusion and a second receiving portion being configured to receive the second protrusion. Embodiments of the present disclosure may include a pair of elongated members being configured to be selectively coupled to a container at a first end and a hospital bed rail at a second end.

  • Publication number: 20180050149
    Abstract: An IV pole attachment apparatus includes an attachment portion, a first appendage, a second appendage, a receiving portion, protrusions, and an appendage connection portion. The IV pole attachment apparatus is constructed of silicone or another form of elastomeric substance. One end of IV pole attachment apparatus is a ring-shaped attachment portion. The attachment portion is seamlessly molded to the appendage connection portion. Appendage connection portion is seamlessly connected to the first appendage and the second appendage. The first appendage contains three spaced protrusions molded in a linear consecutive arrangement into the appendage. The first appendage is pulled through the receiving portion. The greater diameter of the protrusions keeps them from easily passing back thorough the aperture of the receiving portion and allows for a buckling action that secures the IV pole attachment apparatus to an IV pole.
