A. c. SOLLEY Filed Sept. 5, 1954 APPARATUS FOR HYDROTHERAPY INVENTOR A\pho Q$0He5 BY 59/ ATTORNEYS Patented Aug. 24, 1937 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE 2,091,167 APPARATUS FOR HYDROT'HERAPY Alpha 0. Solley, Jersey City, N. J., assignor of one-half to Joseph Hanchrow, New Rochelle,
Application September 5, 1934, Serial No. 742,708
14 Claims.
This invention relates to apparatus for hydrotherapy, and more particularly a whirlpool arm and leg bath.
- .The whirlpool arm and leg bath has proved treatment is effective, however, only by the use of large quantities of hot .water directed forcibly under high pressure against the part undergoing treatment. The prevalent practice is to supply hot and cold water through a special thermostatic mixer which attempts to maintain the 7 desired constant temperature, and from which the water is supplied to a, nozzle immersed in the bath or tank where it is ejected against the part undergoing treatment. The water overflows and drains near the top of the tank and is then discarded.
A primary object of my invention is to generally improve apparatus of this class. More particular objects of my invention are to avoid the large waste of water which takes place in the foregoing apparatus and to maintain a constant temperature, while using large quantities of water at high pressure; to make treatment possible even where no running water is available; to make possible the use of solutions; and to make the apparatus portable so that it may be moved to the patient. These and other objects are fulfilled generally by the use of a circulating system in which the liquid is drained from the tank and pumped at high pressure back into a water discharge nozzle in the tank.
It has been proposed to use a centrifugal pump immersed directly in the tank, but in accordance with further features and objects of my invention, the liquid is circulated by the use of a gear pump located externally of and preferably somewhat remote from the tank. I find that a gear pump may be effectively used for the circulation of a large quantity of water at a high pressure, say fifty pounds per square inch. This pressure is'unobtai-nable with a centrifugal pump, and experience indicates that the use of low pressure I circulation is not effective therapeutically.
Further objects of my invention are to facilitate filling and draining the tank so that it will not be necessary to move the same when filled with liquid, nor to provide a special plumbing system, the pump being utilizable to drain the tank at a higher elevation, for example into a sink;
to make possible electrical insulation of the entire apparatus so that treatment by hydro-therapy may, if desired, be combined with electrical therapy; and to improve the construction of the aerating water discharge nozzle.
To the accomplishment of, the foregoing and other objects which will hereinafter appear, my invention consists in the apparatusfor hydrotherapy and the parts thereof as well as their relation one to the other as hereinafter are more particularly described in the specification and sought to be defined in the claims. The specificationis accompanied by a drawing, in which:
Fig. 1 is a perspective view showing apparatus embodying features of my invention; and
Fig. 2 is an enlarged section showing some of the details thereof. 15
Referring to the drawing, and more particularly to Fig. 1 thereof, the apparatus comprises a bath or tank l2, a gear pump l4 located externally of tank I2 andpreferably somewhat removed therefrom, a motor I6 for driving pump I, a discharge nozzle system generally designated l8, and appropriate piping or hose connecting pump II with tank l2 and nozzle I! to form a circulating system. Specifically, I prefer to employ flexible rubber hose, one length 20 being connected between the bottom of tank l2 and the inlet of pump l4, and another length 22 being connected between the outlet of pump I4 and the upper end of the vertical water supply pipe 24 Tank I2 is filled, with liquid 26, ordinarily hot water, to any desired level depending upon the part of the body being treated. The temperature of the water may be regulated to exactly the desired temperature by simply suspending a suitable thermometer 28 in the liquid and adjusting the temperature to the desired amount by the addition of hot or cold water as may prove appropriate. The liquid may be circulated by pump l4 during the adjustment of temperature. I find from practical experience that the temperature of the water does not change appreciably during the treatment, the total change being a matter of only one or two degrees F. It is obvious that a solution, as of Epsom salt or an antiseptic solution, may be used to any desired concentration because the liquid is recirculated instead of being discarded.

In the present case, I show hose 30 connected at the outlet of pump l4, and valve 32 is adapted to direct the water discharged from the pump into either hose 2! or hose '0.
