Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of medical and health products technology, and in particular to a tampon. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, in the field of feminine hygiene, tampons are a commonly used menstrual hygiene product used to absorb menstrual blood and maintain cleanliness and comfort during menstruation. Traditionally, tampons primarily function to simply absorb menstrual blood; however, as people pay increasing attention to women's health, the functional requirements for tampons are also rising.

[0003] Gynecological diseases such as vaginitis have a high incidence rate among women, seriously affecting their quality of life. During menstruation, due to the unique physiological structure of women, the vaginal environment is prone to change, increasing the risk of infection with vaginitis and other diseases. Therefore, there is a need for tampons that can effectively prevent and treat vaginitis during menstruation. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to overcome the shortcomings of existing tampons in terms of prevention and treatment of vaginitis, ease of use and functionality, and to meet women's higher demand for hygiene products during menstruation.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention provides a tampon comprising: a shell, wherein the shell has an accommodating space inside; The medicine storage section is used to store traditional Chinese medicine. The medicine storage section is housed in the accommodating space and is fixedly connected to the shell. Tampon, the tampon is contained in the receiving space and slidably connected to the shell, the drug storage part and the tampon are spaced back and forth along the extension direction of the shell; The push rod and the tampon are spaced apart from each other, with the front end of the push rod abutting against the rear end of the tampon. The device has a pointed rod, which is housed within a receiving space. The pointed rod passes through the interior of the push rod and the interior of the cotton strip in sequence and is slidably connected to the cotton strip. The pointed rod can be slidably connected to the push rod and slide along the axial direction of the cotton strip to pierce the medicine storage part, allowing the medicine inside the medicine storage part to soak into the cotton strip.

[0006] Preferably, the tampon further includes a first cotton thread, which is fixedly connected to the end of the tampon away from the drug storage part.

[0007] Preferably, a thin film is attached to the outer periphery of the first cotton thread.

[0008] Preferably, the tampon further includes a second cotton thread, which is fixedly connected to the end of the tampon away from the drug storage part, and absorbent resin is fixedly connected to the second cotton thread.

[0009] Preferably, the push rod includes a top abutment, a support portion, and a pressing portion that are fixedly connected in sequence. The cross-sectional area of ​​the top abutment is larger than that of the support portion, and the cross-sectional area of ​​the pressing portion gradually increases from the end closest to the support portion to the end furthest from the support portion.

[0010] Preferably, the push rod has an axially extending through hole that passes through the top, support and pressing parts in sequence.

[0011] Preferably, the support portion includes a plurality of support cavities spaced apart along the axial direction of the support portion, and the plurality of support cavities are connected by a connecting cavity.

[0012] Preferably, the tampon also includes a petal cap, which includes multiple petals that are smoothly curved inward. The multiple petals cooperate to form an outlet, which is in communication with the receiving space. The multiple petals are circumferentially spaced and fixedly connected to the front end of the shell, and the tampon can slide through the outlet and detach from the shell.

[0013] Preferably, the tampon also includes a cap that covers the top of the petal cap.

[0014] Preferably, the swab also includes a force-bearing part, which is fixedly connected to the outer periphery of the shell.

[0015] Preferably, the force-bearing part, the shell, and the petal cap are manufactured using a one-piece molding process.

[0016] Preferably, the cotton swab has a honeycomb structure with openwork.

[0017] Preferably, meltblown fabric is fixedly connected to the outer periphery of the cotton swab.

[0018] Compared with the prior art, the tampons of this invention have the following advantages: (1) First, fill the medicine storage compartment with Chinese medicine. Then, install the cotton swab, push rod, pointed rod, and other components into the housing space according to the design requirements. When the cotton swab is needed, push the push rod to move the cotton swab forward inside the housing. At the same time, the pointed rod will also move forward, piercing the medicine storage compartment and causing the Chinese medicine inside to flow out and soak the cotton swab. After use, determine whether the cotton swab needs to be replaced by observing the expansion of the absorbent resin on the first cotton thread or the second cotton thread. Then, remove the cotton swab from the body.

[0019] (2) The front end of the push rod abuts against the rear end of the cotton swab. This simple connection method makes it easy to move the cotton swab within the housing. The user only needs to gently push the push rod to move the cotton swab accurately towards the medicine storage section, thus achieving the soaking of the cotton swab with traditional Chinese medicine.

[0020] (3) Traditional tampons can only absorb menstrual blood and have limited function in preventing gynecological diseases. This tampon, however, has a medicine reservoir for storing traditional Chinese medicine. Through the combination of the push rod and the pointed rod, the medicine in the reservoir can soak into the tampon. When used during menstruation, the traditional Chinese medicine can continuously regulate and protect the vaginal environment, inhibit the growth and reproduction of harmful bacteria, maintain the balance of vaginal flora, and thus effectively reduce the risk of gynecological diseases such as vaginitis, providing more comprehensive protection for women's menstrual health.

[0023] The specific embodiments of the present invention will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. The following examples are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention.

[0024] In the description of this invention, it should be understood that the terms "longitudinal," "lateral," "vertical," "horizontal," "upper," "lower," "front," "rear," "left," "right," "top," "bottom," "inner," and "outer," etc., used to indicate orientation or positional relationships are based on the orientation or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings and are only for the convenience of describing this invention and simplifying the description, and are not intended to indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this invention.

[0025] In the description of the invention, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installed," "equipped with," "connected," etc., should be interpreted broadly. For example, "connection" can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; it can be a connection within two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this invention based on the specific circumstances.

[0026] like Figures 1-3 As shown, a preferred embodiment of the present invention includes a tampon 3 comprising: a housing 1, wherein the housing 1 has an accommodating space inside; Medicine storage section 2 is used to store Chinese medicine. Medicine storage section 2 is housed in the accommodating space and is fixedly connected to the shell 1. Tampon 3 is housed in the receiving space and slidably connected to the housing 1. The medicine storage part 2 and the tampon 3 are arranged at intervals along the extension direction of the housing 1. The push rod 4 and the cotton strip 3 are arranged at a distance from each other, with the front end of the push rod 4 abutting against the rear end of the cotton strip 3; The pointed rod 5 is housed in the receiving space. The pointed rod 5 passes through the inside of the push rod 4 and the inside of the cotton strip 3 in sequence and is slidably connected to the cotton strip 3. The pointed rod 5 can be slidably connected to the push rod 4 and slide along the axis of the cotton strip 3 to pierce the medicine storage part 2 so that the Chinese medicine inside the medicine storage part 2 is soaked in the cotton strip 3.

[0027] Based on the above scheme, the traditional Chinese medicine is first filled into the medicine storage section 2. Then, the cotton swab 3, the push rod 4, the pointed rod 5, and other components are installed into the accommodating space of the shell 1 according to the design requirements. When the cotton swab 3 is needed, the push rod 4 is pushed, causing the cotton swab 3 to move forward within the shell 1. At the same time, the pointed rod 5 also moves forward, piercing the medicine storage section 2, allowing the traditional Chinese medicine inside the medicine storage section 2 to flow out and soak the cotton swab 3. After use, the swelling of the absorbent resin on the first cotton thread 6 or the second cotton thread 7 is checked to determine whether the cotton swab 3 needs to be replaced. Then, the cotton swab 3 is removed from the body. The front end of the push rod 4 abuts against the rear end of the cotton swab 3. This simple connection method makes it easy to move the cotton swab 3 within the shell 1. The user only needs to gently push the push rod 4 to move the cotton swab 3 accurately towards the medicine storage section 2, achieving the soaking of the cotton swab 3 with traditional Chinese medicine. This tampon 3 has a medicine reservoir 2 inside for storing traditional Chinese medicine. Through the cooperation of the push rod 4 and the pointed rod 5, the medicine in the medicine reservoir 2 can soak into the tampon 3. When used during menstruation, the traditional Chinese medicine can continuously regulate and protect the vaginal environment, inhibit the growth and reproduction of harmful bacteria, maintain the balance of vaginal flora, thereby effectively reducing the risk of gynecological diseases such as vaginitis, and providing more comprehensive protection for women's menstrual health.

[0028] Furthermore, the tampon 3 also includes a first cotton thread 6, which is fixedly connected to the end of the tampon 3 away from the drug storage section 2.

[0029] Based on the above solution, accurate and convenient removal of the tampon 3 is crucial for the user when using it during menstruation. The first cotton thread 6 is fixedly connected to the end of the tampon 3 away from the reservoir 2, providing the user with a clear point of leverage. When the tampon 3 needs to be changed, the user only needs to gently pull the first cotton thread 6 to easily remove the tampon 3 from the vagina, avoiding discomfort caused by searching for the removal location or improper operation, and greatly improving the convenience of use.

[0030] Furthermore, a thin film is attached to the outer periphery of the first cotton thread 6.

[0031] Based on the above scheme, the film connected to the outer periphery of the first cotton thread 6 has excellent waterproof performance, weather resistance and elasticity, and will not be dissolved by menstrual blood or traditional Chinese medicine.

[0032] Furthermore, the tampon 3 also includes a second cotton thread 7, which is fixedly connected to the end of the tampon 3 away from the drug storage part 2, and absorbent resin is fixedly connected to the second cotton thread 7.

[0033] Based on the above solutions, determining whether a tampon 3 needs to be changed during menstruation is a challenge for visually impaired women. This tampon 3, by incorporating absorbent resin, expands when menstrual blood is abundant. Users can judge whether a change is needed by feeling the expansion of the rings. This design greatly facilitates visually impaired women, allowing them to use tampons 3 as easily as sighted women, thus ensuring their quality of life during menstruation.

[0034] More preferably, the drug storage section 2 encapsulates the liquid thermosensitive gel using a PVA water-soluble film. The thermosensitive gel is liquid outside the body and semi-solid inside. This overcomes the bottleneck of traditional semi-solid gels struggling to penetrate evenly within the tampon 3. The liquid gel is released instantly upon puncture, and the absorbency of the tampon 3 enables rapid and uniform wetting, ensuring consistent initial drug distribution. The PVA water-soluble film encapsulates the liquid gel, fixing its position before use and preventing liquid accumulation due to time or gravity, thus ensuring stability before drug release. Upon insertion into the vagina, the thermosensitive gel transforms into a semi-solid state upon contact with body temperature. Compared to its liquid form, it adheres more easily to the vaginal mucosa, prolonging the drug's action time, achieving uniform absorption, and improving the effectiveness and duration of vaginal medication.

[0035] Furthermore, the push rod 4 includes a top abutment 41, a support portion 42, and a pressing portion 43 that are fixedly connected in sequence. The cross-sectional area of ​​the top abutment 41 is larger than that of the support portion 42, and the cross-sectional area of ​​the pressing portion 43 gradually increases from the end closer to the support portion 42 to the end farther away from the support portion 42.

[0036] Based on the above design, the cross-sectional area of ​​the top abutment 41 is larger than that of the support 42, resulting in a larger contact area between the top abutment 41 and the rear end of the cotton strip 3 during the pushing process of the push rod 4. This allows the push rod 4 to distribute the force more evenly on the cotton strip 3 when applying thrust, reducing the swaying or deviation that may occur when the cotton strip 3 moves within the housing 1, and ensuring that the cotton strip 3 can move stably and accurately along the axial direction of the housing 1.

[0037] Furthermore, the push rod 4 has an axially extending perforation that passes through the top 41, the support 42, and the pressing part 43 in sequence. The first cotton thread 6 and the second cotton thread 7 are both threaded through the perforation.

[0038] Based on the above solution, since the cotton thread is threaded inside the perforation, the cotton thread will not generate unnecessary friction or tangling inside the push rod 4 during the process of pushing the push rod 4, reducing the discomfort caused by cotton thread issues.

[0039] Furthermore, the support portion 42 includes a plurality of support cavities spaced apart along the axial direction of the support portion 42, and a connecting cavity is connected between the plurality of support cavities.

[0040] Based on the above solution, by setting multiple support cavities and connecting cavities, the amount of material used can be reasonably reduced while ensuring the structural strength of the support part 42. Compared with the traditional solid support part 42 design, this structure can reduce the weight of the push rod 4 without affecting performance, and also save production costs. For the mass production of tampons 3, this helps to improve production efficiency and economic benefits.

[0041] Furthermore, the tampon 3 also includes a petal cap 8, which includes multiple petals 81. The petals 81 are smoothly curved inward, and the multiple petals 81 cooperate to form an outlet. The outlet is interconnected with the receiving space. The multiple petals 81 are circumferentially spaced and fixedly connected to the front end of the housing 1. The tampon 3 can slide through the outlet and detach from the housing 1.

[0042] Based on the above design, compared to traditional straight-tube or simple-opening designs, the petal-shaped cap 8 has an outlet shape that better conforms to the human physiological structure. During the process of the tampon 3 exiting the casing 1, this smooth outlet design reduces friction and irritation, minimizing discomfort that the user may experience when removing the tampon 3.

[0043] Furthermore, the tampon 3 also includes a cap 9, which covers the top of the petal cap 8.

[0044] Based on the above design, the cap 9 covers the top of the petal cap 8, providing an additional protective layer for the tampon 3. This effectively prevents external dust, bacteria, and other contaminants from entering the interior of the petal cap 8 and the storage space where the tampon 3 is located. During the storage and use of the tampon 3, this protective measure can reduce the risk of contamination from the external environment, maintain the cleanliness and hygiene of the tampon 3, and reduce the possibility of gynecological diseases caused by contamination.

[0045] Furthermore, the tampon 3 also includes a force-bearing part 10, which is fixedly connected to the outer periphery of the housing 1.

[0046] Based on the above design, the force application part 10 provides the user with a clearer and more comfortable point of force application when pushing the tampon 3 forward. When it is necessary to push the tampon 3 into the vagina, the user can hold the force application part 10 to concentrate the force on the push rod 4, so that the tampon 3 can move more smoothly along the axial direction of the housing 1, improving the convenience and efficiency of operation.

[0047] Furthermore, the force unit 10, the shell 1, and the petal cap 8 are made using a one-piece molding process.

[0048] Based on the above solution, the one-piece molding eliminates obvious gaps or abrupt interfaces at the connection points between the force-bearing part 10, the shell 1, and the petal cap 8, avoiding any foreign object sensation during use. The one-piece molding process reduces assembly steps between multiple components, lowering the complexity and difficulty of production. Compared to the traditional method of manufacturing multiple components separately and then assembling them, the one-piece molding process can complete the production of the force-bearing part 10, the shell 1, and the petal cap 8 in a single process, significantly shortening the production cycle and improving production efficiency.

[0049] Furthermore, the tampon 3 has a honeycomb-like perforated structure.

[0050] Based on the above scheme, the hollow design of the honeycomb structure increases the contact area between the cotton swab 3 and the traditional Chinese medicine gel. When the push rod 4 moves the cotton swab 3, causing the traditional Chinese medicine gel in the medicine storage section 2 to flow out and wet the cotton swab 3, more cotton swab 3 fibers can directly contact the traditional Chinese medicine gel, thereby allowing the traditional Chinese medicine to penetrate more fully and evenly into the interior of the cotton swab 3, improving the wetting effect of the traditional Chinese medicine, and ensuring that the cotton swab 3 can better exert its medicinal function during use.

[0051] Furthermore, meltblown fabric is fixedly connected to the outer periphery of the cotton swab 3.

[0052] Based on the above design, the meltblown fabric has a soft texture and will not cause significant friction or irritation when in contact with human skin. When the tampon 3 is inserted into the vagina, the outer meltblown fabric provides a gentler and more comfortable contact experience, reducing potential discomfort and making the entire use process more comfortable.

[0053] The working process of this invention is as follows: When using the tampon 3, the medicine storage part 2 is first pierced by the pointed rod 5 to allow the Chinese medicine to soak into the honeycomb-shaped hollow structure of the tampon 3. Then, the force part 10 holds and pushes the tampon 3 with the push rod 4 to detach the tampon 3 through the petal cap 8 outlet and insert it into the vagina to the appropriate position. During use, when the absorbent resin connected to the second cotton thread 7 swells upon contact with blood, it can help determine when to replace it. When replacing, pull the first cotton thread 6 to remove the tampon 3. The whole process is convenient and can ensure the user experience and hygiene.

[0054] In summary, this embodiment of the invention provides a tampon 3. First, traditional Chinese medicine is filled into the medicine storage section 2. Then, the tampon 3, the push rod 4, the pointed rod 5, and other components are installed into the accommodating space of the housing 1 according to design requirements. When the tampon 3 is needed, the push rod 4 is pushed, causing the tampon 3 to move forward within the housing 1. Simultaneously, the pointed rod 5 also moves forward, piercing the medicine storage section 2, allowing the traditional Chinese medicine inside the storage section 2 to flow out and soak the tampon 3. After use, the expansion of the absorbent resin on the first cotton thread 6 or the second cotton thread 7 is checked to determine if the tampon 3 needs to be replaced. Then, the tampon 3 is removed from the body. The front end of the push rod 4 abuts against the rear end of the tampon 3. This simple connection method makes it easy to move the tampon 3 within the housing 1. The user only needs to gently push the push rod 4 to move the tampon 3 accurately towards the medicine storage section 2, achieving the soaking of the tampon 3 with traditional Chinese medicine. This tampon 3 has a medicine reservoir 2 inside for storing traditional Chinese medicine. Through the cooperation of the push rod 4 and the pointed rod 5, the medicine in the medicine reservoir 2 can soak into the tampon 3. When used during menstruation, the traditional Chinese medicine can continuously regulate and protect the vaginal environment, inhibit the growth and reproduction of harmful bacteria, maintain the balance of vaginal flora, thereby effectively reducing the risk of gynecological diseases such as vaginitis, and providing more comprehensive protection for women's menstrual health.

[0055] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and substitutions can be made without departing from the technical principles of the present invention, and these improvements and substitutions should also be considered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
