[0002] An ampoule is a small sealed glass bottle, commonly used to store liquid medicines, especially injections. It has good sealing and stability, and can effectively protect medicines from external contamination. Before use, flick the liquid from the tip of the ampoule to the body, make a saw mark on the neck of the ampoule with a grinding wheel, disinfect the neck with 75% ethanol, and break the ampoule with sterile gauze or cotton balls. If there is a blue mark on the neck of the ampoule, there is no need to scratch it. After disinfecting the neck, break it directly with sterile gauze or cotton balls. When knocking to open the ampoule, the liquid in the ampoule is likely to flow out, causing waste. When the ampoule is cut with an opener or scissors, grinding wheel, etc., glass powder fragments are easily generated. The powder fragments are easy to fall into the ampoule, and are drawn into the syringe along with the liquid, and injected into the human body, which directly blocks the blood vessels, causing local blood supply deficiency, tissue ischemia, hypoxia, and even necrosis; the particles enter the pulmonary capillaries, which can cause macrophage proliferation, including the formation of pulmonary granulomas by particles, affecting lung function; in addition, if red blood cells aggregate on the particles, blood clots are formed, causing vascular embolism and phlebitis; the particles stimulate tissues to produce inflammation or form masses.

The above patent can realize the opening of ampoules on demand, is suitable for opening ampoules under unmanned operation conditions, and meets the operation of opening ampoules in the process of laboratory automation experiments. Although the above patent can open the ampoule bottle by heating and cooling to prevent the debris generated by cutting from entering the human body, the heating and cooling of the ampoule bottle in the above patent are set separately, multiple nozzles are set around the ampoule bottle for cooling, and a separate manipulator is required to clean the broken glass, which is not only complicated in structure, but also has poor cooling uniformity for the ampoule bottle.
