Technical Field

[0002] Nasal irrigators are a commonly used nasal care device. Traditional electric irrigators use a single positive pressure pump to deliver liquid to one nasal cavity, which then flows through the posterior nostril and is discharged from the opposite nasal cavity to achieve the purpose of cleaning the entire nasal cavity.
[0003] However, a single positive pressure mode can easily lead to excessive intranasal pressure during flushing, causing the user to feel severe discomfort, especially when the liquid delivery intensity is high or the nasal cavity is blocked. This discomfort not only affects the user experience, but may also cause damage to the nasal tissue.
[0004] To this end, the nasal irrigators currently on the market have introduced negative pressure assistance in the nasal cavity on the opposite side of the nasal cavity to improve the pressure balance during the irrigating process. For example, the inventor proposed a nasal care device in the Chinese patent application with the publication number: CN215133158U. The device can use the cleaning mechanism to clean the nasal cavity on one side, and at the same time use the suction mechanism to suck the nasal cavity on the other side, and simultaneously discharge the irrigating liquid from the nasal cavity quickly, thereby effectively preventing choking when cleaning the nasal cavity and damage to the nasal cavity caused by water pressure when cleaning the nasal cavity.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0021] Example embodiments will now be described more fully with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0022] However, example embodiments can be embodied in many forms and should not be construed as limited to the examples set forth herein; rather, these embodiments are provided so that this disclosure will be thorough and complete, and will fully convey the concept of the example embodiments to those skilled in the art.
[0023] The drawings are merely schematic illustrations of the disclosure and are not necessarily drawn to scale.
[0024] The same reference numerals in the drawings denote the same or similar parts, and thus their repeated description will be omitted.
[0025] The present application provides a nasal care device with adjustable flow, which is an improvement based on a nasal care device proposed in the Chinese patent application with publication number: CN215133158U. It is intended to solve the problem that in actual use of the device, due to the difficulty in matching the power of the water pump of the cleaning mechanism and the suction pump of the suction mechanism, a slight imbalance in the liquid flow in the pipeline will cause a large pressure difference in the nose. This pressure difference causes swelling or collapse in the nose, and also causes damage to the user's nasal tissue, making it impossible to ensure the user's comfort and safety.
[0026] like Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, the flow-adjustable nasal cavity care device provided in this application includes a cleaning mechanism 1 and a suction mechanism 2; The cleaning mechanism 1 includes a clean water tank 13, a clean water pump 12, and a cleaning nozzle 11. A first clean water pipeline 14 is connected between the clean water tank 13 and the clean water pump 12, and a second clean water pipeline 15 is connected between the clean water pump 12 and the cleaning nozzle 11. The liquid in the clean water tank 13 is pumped by the clean water pump 12 to the cleaning nozzle 11 for spraying; The suction mechanism 2 includes a sewage tank 23, a suction pump 22, and a suction head 21. A first sewage pipe 24 is connected between the sewage tank 23 and the suction pump 22, and a second sewage pipe 25 is connected between the suction pump 22 and the suction head 21. The sewage sucked by the suction head 21 is pumped to the sewage tank 23 through the suction pump 22. During use, the cleaning nozzle 11 and the suction head 21 can be inserted into one nostril respectively. When the cleaning liquid is sprayed into one nostril through the cleaning nozzle 11, the suction head 21 sucks the dirt in one nostril. The cleaning liquid entering one nostril is sucked out of the other nostril by the suction head 21 under the negative pressure suction generated in the other nostril.
[0027] In addition, the flow-adjustable nasal care device provided in this application also includes a flow monitoring module and a control module; Among them, the flow monitoring module includes a first flow sensor 16 and a second flow sensor 26. The first flow sensor 16 is connected to the first clean water pipeline 14 and / or the second clean water pipeline 15, and is used to collect the real-time flow of the liquid in the first clean water pipeline 14 and / or the second clean water pipeline 15. The second flow sensor 26 is connected to the first sewage pipeline 24 and / or the second sewage pipeline 25, and is used to collect the real-time flow of the liquid in the first sewage pipeline 24 and / or the second sewage pipeline 25; For example, a first flow sensor may be arranged on the first clean water pipeline, and a second flow sensor may be arranged on the first sewage pipeline to collect the flow rates of the liquids in the first clean water pipeline and the first sewage pipeline; Alternatively, a first flow sensor may be arranged on the second clean water pipeline and a second flow sensor may be arranged on the second sewage pipeline to collect the flow of the liquid in the second clean water pipeline and the second sewage pipeline; Alternatively, a first flow sensor may be provided on each of the first clean water pipeline and the second clean water pipeline, and a second flow sensor may be provided on each of the first sewage pipeline and the second sewage pipeline, so as to respectively collect the flow rates of the liquids in the first clean water pipeline, the second clean water pipeline, the first sewage pipeline, and the second sewage pipeline, thereby improving the detection accuracy. Alternatively, a first flow sensor may be arranged on the first clean water pipeline and a second flow sensor may be arranged on the second sewage pipeline to collect the flow rates of the liquids in the first clean water pipeline and the second sewage pipeline; Alternatively, a first flow sensor may be arranged on the second clean water pipeline and a second flow sensor may be arranged on the first sewage pipeline to collect the flow of liquid in the second clean water pipeline and the first sewage pipeline.

[0029] The flow-adjustable nasal care device provided in this application can be used in actual applications to effectively monitor the liquid flow provided by the two pump bodies. A high-precision flow sensor suitable for small diameter and micro flow can be selected, such as a miniature thermal mass flow sensor. This sensor is sensitive to low-flow liquids and is suitable for accurately monitoring the flow of flushing liquid. Of course, other flow sensors can also be used as substitutes.
[0030] The control module is electrically connected to the clean water pump 12 and the suction pump 22 respectively, and the control module is also electrically connected to the first flow sensor 16 and the second flow sensor 26; The control module is used to receive the flow signals collected by the first flow sensor 16 and the second flow sensor 26, and adjust the power of the clean water pump 12 and the suction pump 22 so that the flow difference between the liquid in the first clean water pipeline 14 and / or the second clean water pipeline 15 and the first sewage pipeline 24 and / or the second sewage pipeline 25 is within the target value range.
[0031] For example, a first flow sensor 16 is configured on the second clean water pipe 15, and a second flow sensor 26 is configured on the second sewage pipe 25: The control module is used to receive flow signals collected by the first flow sensor 16 and the second flow sensor 26, and adjust the power of the clean water pump 12 and the suction pump 22 so that the pressure difference between the liquid in the second clean water pipeline 15 and the second sewage pipeline 25 is within a preset range.

[0034] In this solution, the flow difference value is compared with the target value, and the processing method of the comparison result includes: If the flow difference is greater than the target value, the PID control submodule outputs an adjustment signal to reduce the power of the clean water pump 12 or increase the power of the suction pump 22 so that the flow difference is within the target value range; If the flow difference is less than the target value, the PID control submodule outputs an adjustment signal to increase the power of the clean water pump 12 or reduce the power of the suction pump 22 so that the flow difference is within the target value range.
[0035] In addition, the control module of this solution also includes: A flow monitoring submodule, configured to collect a first liquid flow value and a second liquid flow value; If any of the first liquid flow value and the second liquid flow value is greater than a preset threshold, the flow monitoring submodule sends an alarm signal; the alarm signal can be output in the form of a buzzer or a corresponding alarm indicator light.
[0036] The flow-adjustable nasal care device provided in the present application also includes an air pressure balance tube 37. One end of the air pressure balance tube 37 extends into the clean water tank 13, and the other end extends into the sewage tank 23. When working, the air pressure in the clean water tank 13 and the sewage tank 23 is close to a balanced state, providing better working conditions for the operation of the two pump bodies.

[0040] The suction head 21 is fixedly mounted on the second interface 32, the suction pump 22 is mounted in the cavity of the shell 3, the sewage tank 23 is mounted below the shell 3, and the top opening of the sewage tank 23 corresponds to the second opening 34. The first sewage pipe 24 connected to the water outlet of the suction pump 22 extends into the sewage tank 23 through the second opening 34.
[0041] In this embodiment, the clean water pump 12 and the suction pump 22 are micro diaphragm pumps. Of course, other types of pumps may be used instead.

[0043] Preferably, the clean water tank 13 and the dirty water tank 23 are configured to be detachably mounted on the housing 3. Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, the clean water tank 13 is removed from the housing 3, and then filled with cleaning liquid and then installed on the housing 3. Figure 7 It is shown that the sewage tank 23 is removed from the housing 3 after use to pour out the sewage.
[0044] The flow-adjustable nasal care device of this embodiment further includes a first cover 7 for covering the cleaning nozzle 11 and a second cover 8 for covering the suction head 21 .

[0047] The housing 3 is provided with a charging interface 9 for charging the battery 6 .
[0048] like Figure 4 As shown, the battery 6 can be charged by connecting the power line 10 (a power line of the USB interface in this embodiment) to the charging interface 9.
[0049] In addition, a control switch 5 for controlling the flow-adjustable nasal care device is provided at a position suitable for operation on the housing 3 , and a switch indicator light 51 for indicating the switch status of the control switch 5 is also provided on the housing 3 .
