Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of atomizing devices, and in particular to an adjusting device and an atomizer. Background Art

[0002] Medical nebulizers are mainly used to treat various upper and lower respiratory system diseases, such as colds, fever, cough, asthma, sore throat, pharyngitis, rhinitis, bronchitis, pneumoconiosis and other diseases occurring in the trachea, bronchi, alveoli and chest cavity. Medical nebulizers can be divided into ultrasonic nebulizers and compression nebulizers according to the atomization principle. Ultrasonic nebulizers use the high-frequency vibration of ultrasonic transducers to convert liquid medicine into mist to achieve atomization of the medicine; compression nebulizers spray the gas generated by the compressor from the nozzle, absorb the liquid medicine through the negative pressure of the nozzle and the suction pipe, and then the liquid medicine impacts the diaphragm to achieve atomization of the liquid medicine.

[0003] Currently, when a nebulizer is used, medical staff are usually required to inform the patient of the treatment duration, and then the patient counts the time. When the treatment duration is reached, the patient notifies the medical staff to proceed to the next step. The entire process is difficult to control time and is prone to timeouts. Due to cost reasons, the number of nebulizers in hospital departments is usually limited. Frequent timeouts will lead to low utilization of the nebulizer and reduce the efficiency of diagnosis and treatment.

[0004] Therefore, a regulating device and a nebulizer that can effectively control the treatment time are needed. Summary of the invention

[0005] One of the purposes of the present invention is to provide a regulating device and a nebulizer that can effectively control the treatment time.

[0006] In order to solve the above technical problems, this application provides the following technical solutions:

[0007] A regulating device, comprising an atomizing mechanism and an atomizing cup, further comprising:

[0008] An input module, used for receiving an input of atomization time;

[0009] A control module, used to control the operation of the atomization mechanism according to the atomization time and start the timing;

[0010] A state detection module is used to detect the contact state between the hand and the atomizer cup after the atomizer mechanism works, and to generate a stop signal if the hand is out of contact with the atomizer cup, and to generate a resume signal if the hand is back in contact with the atomizer;

[0011] The control module is also used to control the atomization mechanism to stop working and interrupt timing after receiving a stop signal; and to control the atomization mechanism to continue working and resume timing after receiving a resume signal;

[0012] The reminder module is used to generate an end reminder message after the atomization time is reached.

[0013] The basic scheme principles and beneficial effects are as follows:

[0014] Before using this solution for nebulization treatment, the medical staff first inputs the nebulization time, and then the patient holds the nebulizer cup and performs nebulization treatment within the nebulization time. When the patient's hand is out of contact with the nebulizer cup, the nebulizer mechanism stops working and the timing is interrupted to ensure that the patient's treatment reaches the input nebulization time. After the timing reaches the nebulization time, an end reminder message is generated to remind the medical staff that the nebulization treatment of the current patient has ended, and the next patient can be arranged for treatment in time to improve the utilization rate of the nebulizer.

[0015] In summary, this scheme can effectively control the treatment time and improve the utilization rate of the nebulizer.

[0016] Furthermore, the state detection module is also used to detect the contact area between the hand and the atomizer cup, and determine whether the contact area is within a preset range, and if so, generate a locking signal;

[0017] The input module is also used to stop receiving the input of the atomization time after receiving the locking signal.

[0018] In this preferred solution, the contact area between the child's hand and the nebulizer cup can be counted as a preset range. When the contact area is within the preset range, it indicates that the patient currently receiving nebulizer treatment is a child, and the input of the nebulizer time is locked to prevent the child from arbitrarily adjusting the nebulizer time.

[0019] Furthermore, the state detection module is also used to count the number of times the hand is out of contact with the atomizer cup during the atomization time, and determine whether the number exceeds a set value. If it exceeds the set value, determine whether the contact area is within a preset range. If it is within the preset range, generate a voice alarm instruction; if it is not within the preset range, generate a text alarm instruction;

[0020] The reminder module is also used to play voice warning information according to the voice warning instruction, and display text warning information according to the text warning instruction.

[0021] In this preferred embodiment, when the hand is separated from the nebulizer cup multiple times, a text alarm is used first to avoid disturbing other patients around. When the text warning is ineffective, a verbal alarm is used.

[0022] Furthermore, the state detection module is also used to determine whether the duration of the hand being out of contact with the atomizer cup exceeds a threshold value, and if it exceeds the threshold value, a stop signal is generated.

[0023] Avoid the atomization mechanism stopping working when the atomization cup is temporarily out of hand.

[0024] Furthermore, it also includes a communication module, which is used to send the working status information of the regulating device to the outside after the atomizing mechanism works, and is also used to receive the working status information sent by the communication modules of other regulating devices;

[0025] The reminder module is also used to calculate the number of adjustment devices currently in working state according to the received working status information, and determine whether the number of adjustment devices is equal to the preset total number of adjustment devices. If so, when the difference between the atomization time and the timing is less than the time setting value, a pre-reminder information is generated.

[0026] The number of adjustment devices is equal to the preset total number of adjustment devices, indicating that there are many patients at present and there are no idle nebulizers. Pre-reminder information can be generated to notify medical staff in advance before the end of nebulizer treatment, so that they can prepare in advance. Compared with reminding after the end, it is more efficient and can improve the utilization rate of the nebulizer.

[0027] Furthermore, the communication module is also used to send the setting status information of the adjustment device to the outside when receiving the input of the atomization time;

[0028] It is also used to determine whether pre-warning information is currently generated after receiving setting status information sent by the communication module of other adjustment devices, and if pre-warning information is generated, send the pre-warning information to the communication module corresponding to the received setting status information;

[0029] The reminder module is also used to display the received pre-reminder information.

[0030] In this preferred solution, the pre-reminder information is sent to the place where the medical staff sets the nebulization time. In other words, when the medical staff is at the nebulization time, they can see the information that the nebulization time of other nebulizers is about to end, which is convenient for the medical staff to prepare in advance. Compared with the use of sound reminders, it disturbs the surrounding patients less and avoids the situation where the medical staff cannot hear because they are too far away.

[0031] Furthermore, the reminder module is also used to display the first received pre-reminder information;

[0032] The communication module is also used to send the display status information of the pre-reminder information to the communication module of the corresponding adjustment device; the reminder module is also used to determine whether the pre-reminder information sent outward is displayed based on the received display status information. If it is not displayed, the pre-reminder information is sent to the communication module corresponding to the received setting status information after the setting status information sent by the communication module of other adjustment devices is received next time.

[0033] Avoid displaying too much pre-warning information to facilitate medical staff's memory.

[0034] Furthermore, the reminder module is also used to determine whether the pre-reminder message sent out is displayed when generating the end reminder message, and if it is not displayed, voice playback ends the reminder message;

[0035] If it has been displayed, delay the preset time to determine whether the input module receives the new atomization time input within the preset delay time. If not, after the preset delay time, the voice playback ends the reminder information.

[0036] If the pre-warning message has been displayed, delaying the preset time before ending the voice playback of the reminder message can give medical staff time to handle the situation while reducing disturbance to other patients nearby.

[0037] A second object of the present invention is to provide an atomizer comprising the above-mentioned regulating device. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0038] Figure 1 The present invention is a logic block diagram of a first embodiment of a regulating device. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0039] The following is further described in detail through specific implementation methods:

[0040] Embodiment 1

[0041] like Figure 1 As shown, a regulating device of this embodiment includes an atomization mechanism, an atomization cup, an input module, a control module, a state detection module, a reminder module and a communication module.

[0042] The input module is used to receive the input of the atomization time. In this embodiment, the aerosol size is also adjusted by adjusting the ventilation volume paddle on the atomization cup;

[0043] The control module is used to control the operation of the atomization mechanism according to the atomization time and start the timing; the atomization mechanism is an ultrasonic transducer or a compressor. In this embodiment, a compression atomizer is selected and the atomization mechanism is a compressor.

[0044] The state detection module is used to detect the contact state between the hand and the atomizer cup after the atomizer mechanism works. If the hand is out of contact with the atomizer cup, it is determined whether the duration of the hand being out of contact with the atomizer cup exceeds a threshold value. If the threshold value is exceeded, a stop signal is generated; if the hand is restored to contact with the atomizer, a restoration signal is generated. The threshold value is 2-5 seconds, and in this embodiment, it is 3 seconds. In this embodiment, the detection module includes a flexible film pressure sensor, which covers the circumferential surface of the atomizer cup, and then connects the flexible film pressure sensor to the atomizer through a data cable. For example, the data cable and the connecting tube of the atomizer cup can be wrapped together for use to avoid too many wiring harnesses.

[0045] The state detection module is also used to detect the contact area between the hand and the atomizer cup, and determine whether the contact area is within a preset range. If so, a locking signal is generated; the input module is also used to stop receiving the input of the atomization time after receiving the locking signal. In this embodiment, when the hand contacts the flexible film pressure sensor, the flexible film pressure sensor will generate an electrical signal, and the contact area is identified by calibrating the electrical signals corresponding to different areas. In this embodiment, the preset range of the contact area is obtained based on the pre-measured contact area of ​​the hand of a 3-7 year old child holding the atomizer cup.

[0046] The control module is also used to control the atomization mechanism to stop working and interrupt timing after receiving a stop signal; and to control the atomization mechanism to continue working and resume timing after receiving a resume signal.

[0047] The state detection module is also used to count the number of times the hand is out of contact with the atomizer cup during the atomization time, and determine whether the number exceeds a set value. If it exceeds the set value, determine whether the contact area is within a preset range. If it is within the preset range, generate a voice alarm instruction; if it is not within the preset range, generate a text alarm instruction;

[0048] The reminder module is also used to play a voice warning message according to the voice warning instruction, and display a text warning message according to the text warning instruction. The voice warning message is, for example, "Please hold the atomizer cup firmly".

[0049] The communication module is used to send the working status information of the regulating device to the outside after the atomizing mechanism works, and is also used to receive the working status information sent by the communication modules of other regulating devices;

[0050] The reminder module is also used to calculate the number of adjustment devices currently in working state according to the received working state information, and to determine whether the number of adjustment devices is equal to the preset total number of adjustment devices. If it is equal, when the difference between the nebulization time and the timing is less than the time setting value, a pre-reminder message is generated. The pre-reminder message includes the device number and the remaining time. In this embodiment, the setting value is 2 minutes. For example, if the nebulization time is 15 minutes and the timing reaches 13 minutes, a pre-reminder message is generated; the total number of adjustment devices is the number of nebulizers available in the current department.

[0051] The communication module is also used to send the setting status information of the adjustment device to the outside when receiving the input of the atomization time; it is also used to determine whether the pre-warning information is currently generated after receiving the setting status information sent by the communication module of other adjustment devices, and if the pre-warning information is generated, send the pre-warning information to the communication module corresponding to the received setting status information;

[0052] The reminder module is also used to display the first pre-reminder information received; in other embodiments, the pre-reminder information to be displayed can also be determined based on the size of the atomization time and the timing difference. For example, if the difference is 1 minute and 30 seconds respectively, the pre-reminder information corresponding to 30 seconds is displayed first.

[0053] The communication module is also used to send the display status information of the pre-reminder information to the communication module of the corresponding adjustment device; the reminder module is also used to determine whether the pre-reminder information sent outward is displayed based on the received display status information. If it is not displayed, the pre-reminder information is sent to the communication module corresponding to the received setting status information after the setting status information sent by the communication module of other adjustment devices is received next time.

[0054] The reminder module is used to generate an end reminder message after the atomization time is reached.

[0055] The reminder module is also used to determine whether the pre-reminder information is displayed after generating the end reminder information. If not, the voice plays the end reminder information; if it is displayed, delay a preset time, and determine whether the input module receives a new atomization time input within the preset delay time. If not, after the preset delay time, the voice plays the end reminder information. The preset time is 10-30 seconds, and in this embodiment, it is 15 seconds.

[0056] This embodiment also provides an atomizer, including the above-mentioned regulating device.

[0057] Embodiment 2

[0058] The difference between this embodiment and the first embodiment is that in the adjustment device of this embodiment, the state detection module is also used to determine whether the preset conditions are met according to the contact state between the hand and the atomizer cup, and if the preset conditions are met, generate an unlock signal; the input module is also used to receive the input of the atomization time after receiving the unlock signal. The reminder module is also used to display the first received pre-reminder information after receiving the unlock signal. The preset conditions are that the hand continuously squeezes and releases the atomizer cup three times, the single interval does not exceed 1.5 seconds, and the pinching pressure reaches the specified value. Medical staff can pinch the atomizer cup to unlock it according to the preset conditions, and can also confirm the identity of the medical staff and transmit the pre-reminder information to the medical staff.
