Smooth Movement Safety Knife System and Method

摘要

A medical scalpel system includes a safety handle and an internal mechanism that permits a blade to be extended and retracted relative to the safety handle. At least a portion of the system is manufactured pursuant to a process wherein a material, such as silicon or Teflon, is used in the manufacturing of the components to provide a smooth movement between components of an extension and retraction mechanism

主权项

1. A method of manufacturing a blade device, comprising:
providing a blade; injecting a first material into a first mold, the first mold having an internal cavity shaped into a handle of the blade; injecting a second material into a second mold, the second mold having an internal cavity shaped into an internal mechanism of the handle; inserting a lubricant into at least one of the first and the second mold in order to reduce a coefficient of friction of a material in the first or second mold; permitting the first and the second material to cool within the first mold and the second mold so as to form a handle and an internal mechanism; assembling the internal mechanism to the handle and to the blade.
