  • Patent number: 10046130
    Abstract: An air-way tube holder includes a face plate having a v-shaped tube-receiving surface that aligns with one side of an opening through the face plate, and a holding block, which is disposed near a second side of the opening. The holding block receives a thumb screw and an engagement arm, the latter including a clamping head, which directly opposes the tube-receiving surface. The thumb screw is adapted to move the clamping head toward the tube-receiving surface to immobilize an airway tube therebetween, either by sliding the thumb screw (gross adjustment) or turning the thumb screw (fine adjustment). The thumb screw/clamping head is releasable by actuating a quick-release mechanism.

  • Patent number: 9707364
    Abstract: A device for securing an oral airway device in place with a patient's oral cavity. The device comprises a V-clamp which is slid along its upper edge in the direction of the oral airway device. After making contact with the oral airway device with the V-clamp, the user may choose to manipulate a screw disposed on the device and bring its corresponding distal end into physical contact with the opposing surface or side of the oral airway device, thereby creating a compressive force on the oral airway device. Alternatively, the device may comprise a V-clamp on a first portion which is disposed on a sliding track. The first portion may be manipulated with the addition of a screw in order to create a compressive force on the oral airway device. Alternatively, the device may comprise two rotating portions coupled together via a pivot point.
