  • Patent number: 4475708
    Abstract: An intravenous tubing clamping device is provided for controlling fluid flow through compressible tubing. The device includes an elongated member having a proximal end and a distal end which is adapted to receive the tubing. The body member has a generally V-shaped longitudinally extending bottom wall having an angle of about 60.degree. to 165.degree. defining two supporting surfaces for the tubing. In one embodiment, the bottoms of the side walls of the body member define ledges on opposite sides of the V-shaped bottom wall. In another embodiment, the body member defines two grooves on opposite sides of the V-shaped bottom wall. A roller is mounted on the body member for movement longitudinally of the body member. The roller has a generally V-shaped circumference having an apex angle centrally located on the roller having a value of about 60.degree. to 180.degree.. The roller also has circumferentially extending grooves extending around both opposite sides of the outer periphery of the roller.
