Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of nebulizer technology, and in particular to a nebulizer for treating respiratory diseases. Background Technology

[0002] Nebulized inhalation therapy is a common method of drug administration in the treatment of respiratory diseases. It atomizes liquid medication into tiny particles, which are then delivered directly to the lesion through the respiratory tract. It has advantages such as rapid onset of action, high local drug concentration, and few systemic side effects. Currently, the most widely used nebulization equipment in clinical practice is the electric nebulizer, which utilizes the high-frequency vibration of electronic components such as piezoelectric ceramic plates to break the liquid medication into an aerosol.

[0003] However, existing nebulizers often require continuous power to produce a stable nebulized airflow, which cannot be automatically synchronized with the patient's inhalation and exhalation. When the patient exhales or pauses inhalation, the continuously generated drug mist will be directly emitted into the air, which not only wastes the drug solution but may also pollute the surrounding environment and affect the accuracy of the dosage.

Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this invention.

[0021] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings: like Figures 1-6 As shown, a nebulizer for treating respiratory diseases includes a housing 1, a side chamber 2 fixedly connected to one side of the housing 1, an exhaust pipe 3 fixedly connected to the top of the side chamber 2, a lifting mechanism inside the side chamber 2, the lifting mechanism including a slider 401 slidably connected to the inner surface of the side chamber 2, the slider 401 having a hollow structure and being vertically continuous, an inner chamber 402 opening inside the side chamber 2, two spiral plates 404 fixedly connected to the inner surface of the inner chamber 402, two metal rods 403 fixedly connected to the slider 401, the two ends of the metal rods 403 rotatably connected to the inner surface of the inner chamber 402, a transmission mechanism inside the side chamber 2, an elastic mechanism at the top of the transmission mechanism, and a stirring mechanism at the bottom of the transmission mechanism, the transmission mechanism being used to drive the stirring mechanism to rotate. The side box 2 is equipped with an atomizing mechanism. A reflux mechanism is provided on the side of the atomizing mechanism away from the box body 1. A connecting groove 10 is provided inside the side box 2. Negative pressure is generated inside the side box 2 through the connecting groove 10. Under the action of negative pressure, air enters from the connecting groove 10 and pushes the slider 401 upward. When the slider 401 moves upward, the metal rod 403 contacts the two spiral plates 404. Under the action of the spiral plates 404, the slider 401 moves upward and rotates. At the same time, the metal rod 403 contacts the two spiral plates 404 and connects the two spiral plates 404. A battery 12 is provided inside the side box 2. A cover plate 13 is snapped onto the side of the side box 2 away from the box body 1. An inlet pipe 14 is fixedly connected to the top of the box body 1. A screw cap 15 is threadedly connected to the top of the inlet pipe 14.

[0022] The transmission mechanism includes a main gear 501, which is fixedly connected to the top of the slider 401. A secondary gear 502 meshes with the main gear 501 on the side near the housing 1. A rotating shaft 503 is fixedly connected to the secondary gear 502 and is rotatably connected to the inner surface of the side housing 2.

[0023] The elastic mechanism includes a rotating block 601, which is rotatably connected to the top of the slider 401. A spring 602 is fixedly connected to the top of the rotating block 601. The top of the spring 602 is fixedly connected to the inner surface of the side box 2. A limit block 603 is fixedly connected to the top of the slider 401. The rotating block 601 ensures that the spring 602 is not affected by the rotation of the slider 401 when it contracts and extends.

[0024] The stirring mechanism includes a main bevel gear 701, which is fixedly connected to the bottom of the rotating shaft 503. A secondary bevel gear 702 meshes with the bottom of the main bevel gear 701 near the housing 1. A connecting rod 703 is fixedly connected to the secondary bevel gear 702. A stirring rod 704 is fixedly connected to the end of the connecting rod 703 away from the secondary bevel gear 702. When the slider 401 reciprocates, it drives the secondary gear 502 to reciprocate through the main gear 501. The rotation of the secondary gear 502 drives the main bevel gear 701 to rotate through the rotating shaft 503. The rotation of the main bevel gear 701 drives the secondary bevel gear 702 to rotate. The rotation of the secondary bevel gear 702 drives the stirring rod 704 to reciprocate through the connecting rod 703, continuously stirring the medicine liquid in the housing 1 to prevent the medicine liquid from settling or becoming unevenly mixed, thus affecting the treatment effect on the patient.

[0025] The atomizing mechanism includes an air guide groove 801, which is formed on the inner surface of the side box 2. The connecting groove 10 is connected to the interior of the air guide groove 801. A flow channel 802 is formed on the inner surface of the side box 2. The flow channel 802 is connected to the bottom of the air guide groove 801 and is connected to the interior of the air guide groove 801. An atomizing plate 803 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the air guide groove 801. The atomizing plate 803 can be a piezoelectric ceramic atomizing plate, which is a widely used existing technology.

[0026] The atomizing plate 803 is electrically connected to the spiral plate 404 on the side away from the battery 12. The air guide groove 801 is connected to the inside of the box 1 through the atomizing plate 803. The electrical energy in the battery 12 is delivered to the atomizing plate 803 through the metal rod 403 and the two spiral plates 404. After the atomizing plate 803 is powered on, it will generate high-frequency vibration, which will atomize the liquid medicine in the box 1 and deliver it upward through the air guide tube. Then, it will be inhaled by the patient through the slider 401 and the exhaust pipe 3.

[0027] The reflux mechanism includes a reflux chamber 901, which is located at the bottom of the side chamber 2. A liquid outlet pipe 902 is connected to one side of the reflux chamber 901 and is fixedly connected to the bottom of the side chamber 2 on the side away from the chamber 1.

[0028] The output terminal of battery 12 is electrically connected to the spiral plate 404 near the side of battery 12.

[0029] A filter screen 11 is fixedly connected to the end of the connecting channel 10 away from the box body 1.

[0030] A scale 16 is fixedly connected to the front of the box 1, and the operator can observe the remaining amount of medicine in the box 1 at any time through the scale 16. Several support feet 17 are fixedly connected to the bottom of both the box 1 and the side box 2.

[0031] Working principle: When using the device, the operator first puts an appropriate amount of medicine into the inside of the box 1 and connects the exhaust pipe 3 to the external suction mask.

[0032] When the patient inhales, negative pressure is generated inside the side chamber 2 through the connecting groove 10. Under the action of negative pressure, air enters through the connecting groove 10 and pushes the slider 401 upward, compressing the spring 602. When the slider 401 moves upward, the metal rod 403 contacts the two spiral plates 404. Under the action of the spiral plates 404, the slider 401 moves upward and rotates. At the same time as the metal rod 403 contacts the two spiral plates 404, the two spiral plates 404 are connected. The electrical energy in the battery 12 is delivered to the nebulizer 803 through the metal rod 403 and the two spiral plates 404. After the nebulizer 803 is powered on, it will generate high-frequency vibration, atomize the liquid medicine in the chamber 1, and deliver it upward through the air guide tube. Then, it is inhaled by the patient through the slider 401 and the exhaust pipe 3.

[0033] When the patient exhales, the negative pressure inside the side chamber 2 disappears, and the slider 401 moves downward under the action of the spring 602, causing the slider 401 to reset. At this time, the metal rod 403 is disengaged from the two spiral plates 404, and the atomizing plate 803 stops atomizing. The main gear 501 also seals the air guide groove 801. When the patient inhales again, the above operation will be repeated.

[0034] As slider 401 reciprocates, it drives secondary gear 502 to reciprocate through main gear 501. The rotation of secondary gear 502 drives main bevel gear 701 to rotate through shaft 503. The rotation of main bevel gear 701 drives secondary bevel gear 702 to rotate. The rotation of secondary bevel gear 702 drives stirring rod 704 to reciprocate through connecting rod 703, continuously stirring the medicine liquid in the box 1 to prevent the medicine liquid from settling or being unevenly mixed, thus affecting the treatment effect on the patient.

[0035] When the mist passes through the air guide tube, water droplets will condense on its inner wall. The water droplets will fall down along the inside of the air guide groove 801 into the diversion groove 802 and finally be collected in the return chamber 901. Connecting the external equipment to the liquid outlet pipe 902 will discharge the collected water droplets, thus completing the recovery of the medicine liquid.

[0036] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of the present invention. Those skilled in the art should understand that the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of the invention. Various changes and modifications can be made to the invention without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claimed invention.
