ABSTRACT:
Glass ampules are individual hermetically sealed units containing liquid medication. Some United States manufactured ampules and a large proportion of foreign ampules are available as unscored. In order to open and withdraw the contents of such ampules they have to be scored. This is generally done with a small steel file.
The proposed invention consists of a guillotine type device wherein a small steel file is held in a slit arrangement in the lower and upper portion of the guillotine on which the ampule neck is rotated thereby scoring the ampule neck which is subsequently snapped off. The lower and upper parts of the guillotine have two (2) guide posts which permit the top portion thereof to move up and down to accomodate and score all size ampules from 1cc to 50cc inclusive.
