Problems solved by technology

Due to the limitation of objective conditions, in families and outpatient clinics, patients often need to instill eye drops by themselves, but most of the patients with eye diseases are elderly or children. For these patients, it is very difficult to instill eye drops accurately by themselves, even for normal adults It is not necessarily easy and can be instilled correctly
This is due to: 1. It is difficult to accurately control the position of the mouth of the container relative to the eyes (including the fornix of the eyelid); 2. The container is suspended in the air when the eye is instilled, and the hand shakes easily, and the direction when the eyedrops are squeezed out is uncertain; 3. It is difficult to Control the extrusion amount of eye drops, that is, it is difficult to control the squeeze range of the eye drop container body. A little force may cause the squeeze range to be too large, and a little force may not squeeze the range too small; 4. It is difficult to operate with one hand, and both hands cooperate not easy to understand
[0004] Due to the above-mentioned reasons, it is easy to cause the following problems: 1. The application position is inaccurate, and it often occurs that all or part of the eye drops are dripped outside the eyelids, and it is often impossible to judge how much medicine is leaked outside the eyes. It’s not enough to add more drops, and it’s not right to stop adding drops. It is a waste of eye drops (some eye drops are very expensive), and it also affects the curative effect, and may even be ineffective; 2. The mouth of the container may touch the eyes, which may be harmful to the already fragile eyes. Cause injury or pollution, and the bacteria on the eyes (such as ulcer patients) and eyelashes with germs are also easy to contaminate the mouth of the container, and then contaminate the eye drops; eyedrops

Embodiment 1

[0041] image 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 The structure shown is a self-service eye dropper, which includes a strip-shaped horizontal support plate 1. The following describes the self-service eye dropper when the length of the horizontal support plate 1 is horizontal and vertical. structure. A finger cover 2 for clamping a finger is fixed below the front section of the elongated horizontal support plate 1, and a vertical connector 3 is fixed above the front section of the horizontal support plate 1, and the vertical connector 3 is provided with a supply container. The hollow hole 30 that the mouth passes through, the distance between the center point of the hollow hole 30 and the upper surface of the horizontal support plate 1 (such as Figure 4 The middle dimension line h) is 10mm; the top of the horizontal support plate 1 is also provided with an elastic clip 4 for clamping the eye medicine container body, and the elastic clip 4 cooperates with the left and right to clamp t...

Embodiment 2

[0053] The main difference between embodiment two and embodiment one has three aspects, and the difference of these three aspects makes embodiment two be particularly suitable for eye drop ointment, and the difference of these three aspects is mainly as follows:

[0054] The difference in the first aspect: the longitudinal limiting member 5 of the second embodiment is a circular roller, and the rotating shaft 51 of the circular roller is vertical; The whole composed of connecting parts is called the connecting part assembly); the circular roller 5 is provided with an arc-shaped hole 50 at an eccentric position, and a small magnet 53 is provided on one edge of the arc-shaped hole 50, and a through hole is also provided. Enter the vertical iron pin 52 of the arc hole 50, the lower end of the vertical iron pin 52 is fixedly connected with the connector assembly, as Figure 9 , Figure 10 shown. In this way, before applying eye ointment, the vertical iron pin 52 is automatically...

Abstract

The invention relates to a self-help eye dropping device. The self-help eye dropping device comprises a strip-shaped horizontal support plate, wherein a finger coat is fixedly arranged under the frontend of the horizontal support plate and is used for clamping a finger; a vertical connecting part is fixedly arranged above the front section of the horizontal support plate; a hollow hole is formedin the vertical connecting part, and is used for a container nozzle to penetrate through; elastic clamp sheets are arranged above the horizontal support plate, are used for clamping an eye medicine container body, and are matched in a left and right way; the upper end of the vertical connecting part is also connected with a longitudinal connecting part which is in contact with a forehead, and is provided with a Y-shaped clamp arm assembly; the Y-shaped clamp arm assembly comprises a left clamp arm and a right clamp arm, a left clamp block is arranged in the middle part of the left clamp arm, aright clamp block is arranged in the middle part of the right clamp arm, and the left clamp block and the right clamp block are matched in pair to extrude the eye medicine container body. The self-help eye dropping device has the advantages that a patient is assisted to drop the medicines into eyes by self; the fixed-point, fixed-distance and fixed-eye dropping effect is realized; the eye medicine can be accurately dropped to the target position, and the injury to eyes by the container nozzle is avoided.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of medical care devices, and in particular relates to a device that can be used for patients to assist self-instillation of eyes. Background technique [0002] Patients with eye diseases need regular and quantitative use of eye drops, and some patients even need long-term use.
