Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of mammary glands, and in particular to a breast pump for mammary glands. Background Art
[0002] During the lactation period, if the milk from the glandular lobe is not discharged smoothly, it will accumulate in the mammary gland, making it easy to develop breast cysts. Therefore, it is very necessary to discharge the milk in time, and for this reason, most mothers will choose a breast pump.
[0003] However, most breast pumps are designed to create negative pressure on the breast, thereby extracting milk. However, they don't consider that babies are able to extract milk from their mother's breasts due to their completely different oral structure from that of adults. Their large tongues fill their small mouths, and their thick buccal fat pads (the fat pads on the inside of their cheeks) and flat palate tightly wrap around the front of the mother's breast, creating a vacuum without much force. The subsequent peristaltic movement of the tongue creates a comfortable squeeze on the breast. This tongue-induced compression of the breast, in particular, can better stimulate milk letdown, something currently lacks in common breast pumps. Summary of the Invention
[0004] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, the present invention proposes a breast pump for breast medicine to solve the technical problem that common breast pumps in the existing technology are difficult to simulate the milk ejection reflex caused by the squeezing of the breast by the peristalsis of the baby's tongue.

[0037] The following embodiments of the technical solution of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. The following embodiments are only used to more clearly illustrate the technical solution of the present invention and are therefore only examples and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0038] Please also refer to Figure 1-Figure 5 This embodiment provides a breast pump for breast medicine, including a milk collecting bottle 1, a pipe 2, a breast support 3, a negative pressure mechanism 4, a transmission mechanism 5, a pseudo-tongue block 6 and a driving assembly 7.
[0039] One end of the pipe 2 is connected to the milk collecting bottle 1, and the other end is connected to the breast support 3. It should be understood that the breast support 3 is used to cover the breast to form a closed space around the breast.
[0040] The negative pressure mechanism 4 is arranged on the milk collecting bottle 1 and is connected with the milk collecting bottle 1. The negative pressure mechanism 4 is provided with a touch switch 41 for controlling the negative pressure. By opening the negative pressure mechanism 4, a negative pressure is formed in the breast support 3, and the milk can be sucked out.
[0041] In other embodiments, the negative pressure mechanism 4 includes a mounting plate 42, a negative pressure device 43, and a negative pressure tube 44. The mounting plate 42 is mounted on the milk collecting bottle 1. The negative pressure device 43 is mounted on the mounting plate 42 and is connected to the milk collecting bottle 1 via the negative pressure tube 44. The touch switch 41 is mounted on the negative pressure device 43. It should be understood that the touch switch 41 can control the opening and closing of the negative pressure device 43.
[0042] In other solutions, a check valve is further provided in the negative pressure tube 44. The check valve can prevent milk from entering the negative pressure device 43.
[0043] The transmission mechanism 5 is slidably mounted on the conduit 2. The simulated tongue 6 is positioned on the transmission mechanism 5 and within the conduit 2. As the transmission mechanism 5 slides toward the bra cup 3, it repeatedly drives the bra cup 3 forward and backward. As the transmission mechanism 5 slides away from the bra cup 3, it continuously abuts the touch switch 41. Specifically, as the transmission mechanism 5 slides toward the bra cup 3, the simulated tongue 6 repeatedly extends to abut the breast, particularly the nipple, and then retracts, repeating this cycle. The simulated tongue 6 is preferably positioned in the middle of the conduit 2. It should be understood that the simulated tongue 6 is a soft block that simulates a tongue.
[0044] In other schemes, the transmission mechanism 5 includes a sliding component 51, an abutting component 52, a transmission component 53 and a re-pushing component 54; the sliding component 51 is slidably provided on the pipe 2 and is connected to the driving component 7, the abutting component 52 is provided on the sliding component 51 near one end of the touch switch 41, and the sliding component 51 is slid toward the touch switch 41, and the abutting component 52 can continuously abut the touch switch 41; the transmission component 53 is rotatably provided on the pipe 2, the re-pushing component 54 is slidably provided on the inner side of the pipe 2, and the pseudo-tongue block 6 is provided on the re-pushing component 54. Sliding the sliding component 51 toward the breast support 3 can enable the transmission component 53 to drive the re-pushing component 54 to move back and forth.
[0045] In other embodiments, the sliding assembly 51 includes a fixed block 511 and a rack 512; the fixed block 511 is arranged on the pipe 2, and the rack 512 is slidably connected to the fixed block 511; the abutment assembly 52 is arranged on the side of the rack 512 close to the touch switch 41, and the driving assembly 7 is connected to the rack 512.
[0046] In other embodiments, the abutment assembly 52 includes a spring 521 and an abutment block 522 ; one end of the spring 521 is connected to the end of the rack 512 close to the touch switch 41 , and the other end of the spring 521 is connected to the abutment block 522 , and the abutment block 522 can abut the touch switch 41 .
[0047] In other schemes, the transmission assembly 53 includes a transmission gear 531, a rotating shaft 532 and an incomplete gear 533; the rotating shaft 532 is rotatably provided on the pipe 2, and the transmission gear 531 and the incomplete gear 533 are respectively coaxially fixed on the rotating shaft 532. The transmission gear 531 can engage with the rack 512, and the rotation of the incomplete gear 533 can drive the reciprocating assembly 54 to move back and forth.
[0048] In other embodiments, the reciprocating assembly 54 includes a long toothed ring 541 and a connecting rod 542; the two opposing inner sides of the long toothed ring 541 can respectively engage with the incomplete gear 533. The connecting rod 542 is disposed on the long toothed ring 541, and the pseudo-tongue 6 is disposed on the connecting rod 542. It should be understood that the long toothed ring 541 slides back and forth linearly toward the bra cup 3. It should also be understood that the incomplete gear 533 does not engage with both sides of the long toothed ring 541 simultaneously; before the rack 512 moves toward the touch switch 41 and leaves the transmission gear 531, the long toothed ring 541 can slide toward or away from the bra cup 3.
[0049] The driving assembly 7 is arranged on the milk collecting bottle 1 and can drive the transmission mechanism 5 to move back and forth.
[0050] In other embodiments, the drive assembly 7 includes a motor 71, a drive rod 72, and a transmission rod 73. The motor 71 is mounted on the pipe 2. One end of the drive rod 72 is connected to the output terminal of the motor 71, and the other end is hinged to the transmission rod 73. The other end of the transmission rod 73 is hinged to the rack 512 and can drive the rack 512 to slide back and forth. It should be understood that the drive rod 72 can perform circular motion.
[0051] In other embodiments, a wedge block 8 and a lifting block 9 are further provided; the wedge block 8 is slidably mounted on the connecting rod 542 near one end of the breast support 3, the simulated tongue block 6 is mounted on the wedge block 8, and the lifting block 9 is mounted within the conduit 2. When the wedge block 8 slides toward the breast support 3, it abuts against the lifting block 9 and slides therewith. The wedge block 8 and the lifting block 9 enable the simulated tongue block 6 to move diagonally while moving linearly toward the breast, more accurately simulating the movement of a baby's tongue.
[0052] In the aforementioned breast pump, the drive assembly drives the transmission mechanism to slide toward the breast cup, which in turn drives the tongue-like block to repeatedly move, further simulating the stimulation of a baby's tongue on the breast. When the stimulation reaches a certain level, the drive assembly drives the transmission mechanism to slide in the opposite direction and continuously contact the touch switch, sucking milk from the stimulated breast. This cycle repeats, achieving a good sucking effect.
[0053] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit the same. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments, or make equivalent replacements for some or all of the technical features therein. These modifications or replacements do not deviate the essence of the corresponding technical solutions from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention, and they should all be included in the scope of the claims and description of the present invention.
