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. The self-service eye dropper includes a long horizontal support plate 1. The following describes the self-service eye dropper with the horizontal support plate 1 in a horizontal and vertical direction. structure. A finger sleeve 2 for clamping a finger is fixed under 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 container The hollow hole 30 through which the mouth passes, 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; above the horizontal support plate 1, there is also an elastic clip 4 for clamping the body of the eye medicine container. The elastic clip 4 fits left and right to clamp the body of the eye med...

Embodiment 2

[0053] There are three main differences between the second embodiment and the first embodiment. The three differences make the second embodiment particularly suitable for eye drops. The three main differences are 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 rotating shaft 51 of the circular roller is installed in the connector assembly (the longitudinal connector and the vertical The upper part of the connecting piece is called the connecting piece assembly); the circular roller 5 is provided with an arc-shaped hole 50 at an eccentric position, and one side edge of the arc-shaped hole 50 is provided with a small magnet 53 and a through hole Into the vertical iron pin 52 of the arc-shaped hole 50, the lower end of the vertical iron pin 52 is fixedly connected to the connecting piece assembly, such as Picture 9 , Picture 10...

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 equipment, and in particular relates to an appliance that can be used for patients to assist self-dropping eyes. Background technique [0002] Patients with eye diseases need to use eye drops regularly, and some patients even need to use them for a long time. There are two types of eye drops, eye drops and eye ointments. Among them, the eye drops are generally bottled, that is, contained in a plastic bottle 81. The front end of the plastic bottle 81 is equipped with a cone-shaped dropper 80, such as figure 1 As shown; and eye ointment is generally packaged in the form of a tube, that is, it is installed in the tube body 91. The front end of the tube body 91 is round, and the rear end of the tube body 91 is flat and thin. The front end of 91 is also equipped with a hose nozzle 90, such as figure 2 As shown, the front end surface of the hose nozzle 90 is provided with an extrusion hole. In this ap...
