  • Patent number: 5766211
    Abstract: The invention is an irrigating device having a rigid housing defining a canal containing a three way valve selecting between three ends where at least one of the three stems has an elastic attachment for receiving two separate non-elastic medical input devices sharing a common chamber which common chamber communicates with the rigid housing canal. It has at least one three-way valve directing the flow of suction or fluids to graduated openings in the medial, distal and proximal direction. The medial opening is where the elastic attachment is place which defines a plurality of tubes. All of these tubes may be elastic. All may have an inner circumference for receiving a tube or syringe of corresponding outer diameter. Alternatively, one of these tubes may be elastic having an outer diameter for insertion into a tube or syringe of corresponding inner diameter so as to form an elastic, but water tight seal.
