A speculum tool that adds a lower strap at a point that does not interfere with the with the movement of the jaws of the speculum. The lower strap provides a low point of attachment for the tool. Until now, equine speculums were tethered by the upper strap, with the tether secured onto an immobile structure, such as a wall of a barn. The rear strap would then be looping behind the ears of the patient and back to the opposite side of the speculum's upper jaw. In this way the upper strap provided an overhead attachment that elevated the animal's head during procedure, while the ear strap provided a lower attachment to keep the speculum from slipping off the head and to keep the upper strap from raising the head of an animal too high. The present invention adds additional low point attachment to an already improved rear strap for additional tethering security and as an additional factor in minimizing the risks of harming eyesight and spinal cords of equine patients. |

A speculum (20) for obtaining visual access to the inside of an animal's (500) mouth includes a body (22), and handle (28) and two spaced loop-shaped members (30) and (32). Loop-shaped members (30) and (32) have arcuate ends (34) and (36) which individually or in unison may be hooked around the last jaw teeth (502) through (505), while speculum (20) is selectively manipulated by handle (28) to allow visual access to the animal's (500) teeth (501), tongue (506), cheeks (507) and (508), and soft mouth tissue (509). Speculum (20) is fabricated from a rod-like material to ensure maximum visibility by the using veterinarian. |

A veterinary oral speculum for use with a bird is a rod having a cut away portion formed in a first longitudinal surface near one end of the rod and defining a handle at the opposite end of the rod. A slotted hole is formed in an opposite second longitudinal surface of the rod. The slotted hole and the cut-away portion are opposed to and communicate with one another and form a through opening in the rod. The speculum is inserted between the mandibles of the bird, rotated through 90.degree. and slid within the mouth of the bird so that the slotted hole is oriented inwardly toward the bird, the cut away portion is oriented outwardly from the bird and the through opening is oriented between the mandibles as a window such that oral access to the bird is gained by the through opening. |

An equine speculum has an extension (17b) to the upper jaw piece (17a) to which the speculum-controlling handle (28a) is joined by a pivot (30), there being a slot (44) in the handle to permit relative motion of a pivot (29) that joins the handle to the lower jaw piece (18). An extension (46) below the lower jaw piece provides additional teeth (47) to permit latching the speculum in various open positions. |
