[0001] The present application relates to the field of eye drops, and in particular to an eye drop bottle. Background Art
[0002] As people's lifestyles and working conditions change, they spend more and more time using their eyes, such as using computers, watching TV, playing video games, etc., which makes it easy to suffer from visual fatigue and dry eyes. Both of these diseases are characterized by dry and uncomfortable eyes, so many people have turned eye drops into a daily "must-have medicine".
[0003] In the related art, in order to prevent eye drops from coming into contact with bacteria in the air, preservatives are usually added to the eye drop bottle. Long-term use will cause adverse reactions to the eyes. Secondly, patients are often afraid when using the eye drops, which causes their hands to shake unconsciously when dropping the drops, resulting in the eye drops not being dropped into the eyes. At this time, the patients will shake the eye drops that are already on the face and allow them to flow back into the eyes. This can easily cause eye infections, and there is room for improvement. Summary of the invention
[0004] In order to improve the problem of the presence of preservatives in eye drop bottles in the prior art and reduce the problem of eye drops dripping into the patient's eyes, the present application provides an eye drop bottle.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, a filter layer is added in the dropper of the bottle cap to prevent microbial contamination and reduce or eliminate the use of preservatives; secondly, a rubber ring is added to the eye drop bottle, and then a suction cup at one end is brought into contact with the patient's brow bone, and then the bottle body is squeezed so that the eye drops can be accurately dropped into the patient's eyes.
[0008] Preferably, the guide balls are located at the inner groove protrusion of the bottle body, the cross section of the guide balls on the side away from the inner wall of the bottle body is rectangular, and the guide balls are grouped in pairs and are symmetrical to each other.
[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the patient squeezes the inner groove of the bottle body, causing the guide balls to collide and squeeze each other, forming downward pressure, so that the eye drops in the bottle drip out quickly.
[0010] Preferably, the filter layer is composed of a gasket and a microporous filter membrane, and both the gasket and the microporous filter membrane are made of hydrophobic material.
[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, through the gasket and microporous filter membrane in the filter layer, it can be achieved that eye drops with no or little preservatives added will not cause secondary microbial contamination after use, and at the same time, microorganisms in the air are prevented from contaminating the eye drops in the eye drop bottle.
[0012] Preferably, the branch pipe is bent relative to the dropper, the diameter of the branch pipe is smaller than the diameter of the dropper, and the diameter of the branch pipe decreases from bottom to top.
[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, by adding branch tubes on both sides of the dropper, and by having different diameters of the branch tubes, it is convenient for the patient to squeeze hard, and the branch tubes cooperate with the dropper to drip out a large amount of eye drops. If there is no squeezing, the eye drops only drip out of the dropper in a small amount, which is convenient for the patient to choose the amount according to the actual situation.
[0014] Preferably, the outer ring of the bottle cap is provided with a threaded groove, the rubber ring is sleeved on the bottle cap through the threaded groove, and inner holes are provided at both ends of the threaded groove. A ball is fixedly connected to the inner diameter of the rubber ring, and the ball is adapted to the shape and size of the inner hole.
[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the ball on the rubber ring is firmly fixed to the inner hole of the threaded groove on the bottle cap, ensuring that the rubber ring will not fall off easily.
[0016] Preferably, an arc-shaped groove is fixedly connected inside the suction cup, the shape and size of the arc-shaped groove are smaller than the suction cup, and small thin rods are provided at both ends of the arc-shaped groove.

[0022] In summary, the present application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:
[0023] 1. By adding a filter layer in the dropper of the bottle, when the patient uses the eye drops, the eye drops in the bottle pass through the filter layer in the dropper, so that the eye drops without or with little preservatives will not cause secondary contamination of microorganisms after use, making the dripped eye drops safer and without side effects; secondly, branch tubes are installed on both sides of the dropper. When the patient squeezes the inner groove of the bottle, the guide balls squeeze and collide with each other. At this time, the branch tube cooperates with the dropper to drip a large amount of eye drops to meet the actual needs of the patient. When the patient drips vertically normally and does not squeeze the bottle, the branch tube will not flow eye drops into the dropper, so that the patient can use it normally.
[0024] 2. By setting a rubber ring on the bottle cap, when the patient's head is tilted up or the body is lying flat, the suction cup at the end of the rubber ring fits the patient's eyebrows to provide support for the bottle, so that the patient will not shake the eye drop bottle at will when holding it, ensuring that the eye drops in the bottle can be smoothly dripped into the patient's eyes, avoiding the situation where the eye drops are not dripped into the eyes and the head is shaken to let the eye drops flow back into the eyes, thereby improving the use effect of the eye drop bottle. At the same time, an arc groove and a small thin rod are provided in the suction cup, so that the arc groove fits the patient's brow bone firmly, and the small thin rod is stuck above and below the brow bone, thereby improving the stability of the eye drop bottle.

[0034] The present application embodiment discloses an eye drop bottle, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , including a bottle body 1 and a matching bottle cap 2, the bottle cap 2 is provided with a conical dropper 3, and a layered and circular filter layer 31 is embedded and installed inside the dropper 3. Both sides of the dropper 3 are connected with a cylindrical branch pipe 4 extending toward the bottle body 1, the dropper 3 and the branch pipe 4 are both connected with the bottle body 1, and the liquid flows out from the bottle body 1 through the dropper 3 and the branch pipe 4. A circular rubber ring 5 is sleeved on the bottle cap 2. A square fixing block 6 is fixedly connected to the side of the rubber ring 5 away from the dropper 3, and the fixing block 6 can be rubber or plastic and is glued to the rubber ring 5. A cylindrical support rod 7 is integrally arranged or glued to the side of the fixing block 6 away from the rubber ring 5, and the support rod 7 can be rubber or plastic. A rubber suction cup 8 is installed on the side of the support rod 7 away from the fixing block 6, and the opening of the suction cup 8 faces away from the support rod 7. Both sides of the bottle body 1 are provided with inner grooves 9, and the inner wall of the bottle body 1 is symmetrically provided with guide balls 10.
[0035] By installing a filter layer 31 in the dropper 3 of the bottle body 1, when the patient uses the eye drops, the eye drops in the bottle pass through the filter layer 31 in the dropper 3, so that the eye drops without or with little preservatives will not cause secondary contamination of microorganisms after use, making the dripped eye drops safer and without side effects; secondly, branch pipes 4 are installed on both sides of the dropper 3, when the patient squeezes the inner groove 9 of the bottle body 1, the guide balls squeeze and collide with each other, and at this time, the branch pipes 4 cooperate with the dropper 3 to drip a large amount of eye drops to meet the actual needs of the patient. When the patient drips normally vertically and does not squeeze the bottle body 1, the branch pipes 4 will not flow into the dropper 3, so that the patient can use it normally.
[0036] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the guide ball 10 is located at the raised part of the inner groove 9 of the bottle body 1, the cross-section of the guide ball 10 on the side away from the inner wall of the bottle body 1 is rectangular, and the guide balls 10 are grouped in pairs and are symmetrical to each other. The filter layer 31 is composed of a gasket 311 and a microporous filter membrane 312, the gasket 311 is a polypropylene gasket, the microporous filter membrane 312 is a polytetrafluoroethylene filter membrane, and the gasket 311 and the microporous filter membrane 312 are both made of hydrophobic material.
[0037] Specifically, the pore size of the microporous filter membrane 312 is 0.22 μm, the branch tube 4 is bent relative to the dropper 3, the diameter of the branch tube 4 is smaller than the diameter of the dropper 3, and the diameter of the branch tube 4 decreases from bottom to top, the bottom of the bottle body 1 is provided with a silicone gasket 111, and the bottom of the silicone gasket 111 is coated with coating glue, the suction cup 8, the support rod 7, the fixing block 6 and the rubber ring 5 are all integrated, which helps to improve the overall sealing performance.
[0038] The patient squeezes the inner groove 9 of the bottle body 1 so that the guide balls 10 collide and squeeze each other, forming a downward pressure, so that the eye drops in the bottle drip out quickly, and by installing branch pipes 4 on both sides of the dropper 3 and having different diameters of the branch pipes 4, it is convenient for the patient to squeeze hard, and the branch pipes 4 cooperate with the dropper to drip out a large amount of eye drops. If there is no squeezing, the eye drops only drip out a small amount from the dropper, which is convenient for the patient to choose the amount according to the actual situation; through the gasket 311 and the microporous filter membrane 312 in the filter layer 31, it can be achieved that the eye drops without or with little preservatives added will not cause secondary microbial contamination after use, and at the same time, microorganisms in the air are prevented from contaminating the eye drops in the eye drop bottle.
[0039] like Figure 4-5 As shown, it is worth noting that the outer ring of the bottle cap 2 is provided with a threaded groove 21, the rubber ring 5 is sleeved on the bottle cap 2 through the threaded groove 21, and inner holes 211 are provided at both ends of the threaded groove 21, and a ball 51 is fixedly connected to the inner diameter of the rubber ring 5, and the shape and size of the ball 51 are adapted to the inner hole 211.
[0040] By sleeved with a rubber ring 5 on the bottle cap 2, when the patient's head is tilted up or the body is lying flat, the suction cup 8 at the rear end of the rubber ring 5 fits the patient's eyebrows to provide support for the bottle body 1, so that the patient will not shake the eye drop bottle at will when holding it, ensuring that the eye drops in the bottle can be dropped into the patient's eyes smoothly, avoiding the operation of shaking the head to let the eye drops flow back into the eyes when the eye drops are not dropped into the eyes, thereby improving the use effect of the eye drop bottle.
[0041] like Figure 6 As shown, it is worth noting that the suction cup 8 is fixedly connected with an arc groove 81, the shape and size of the arc groove 81 are smaller than the suction cup 8, and small thin rods 811 are provided at both ends of the arc groove 81. The cooperation of the arc groove 81 and the small thin rod 811 makes the arc groove 81 fit the patient's brow bone firmly, and the small thin rod 811 is stuck above and below the brow bone, which improves the stability of the eye drop bottle when used.
[0042] The principle of the utility model is as follows: when in use, open the mouth of the dropper 3 installation instructions, then put the rubber ring 5 on the bottle cap 2, and align the suction cup 8 on one side of the rubber ring 5 with your eyebrows, and make the arc groove 81 in the suction cup 8 fit your brow bone, and the small thin rod 811 fits the upper and lower brow bone. Secondly, the patient can choose whether to squeeze the bottle body 1 according to the amount of eye drops to be squeezed. If squeezed, press the inner groove 9 of the bottle body 1 with your fingers, so that the guide balls 10 in the bottle collide with each other to form a downward pressure, so that the branch pipe 4 cooperates with the dropper 3 to guide a large amount of eye drops. If the dose does not need to be increased, just put the bottle body 1 vertically three to five centimeters above the eyes, and the eye drops will drip into the patient's eyes. Afterwards, if the patient needs to drip eye drops at the corner of the eye, he can apply force downward so that the suction cup 8 fits the patient's eyebrows firmly, and then move it to the left or right. Finally, the utility model can effectively achieve the goal that eye drops with no or little preservatives added will not cause secondary microbial contamination after use through the filter layer, and can alleviate the problem of patients being unable to vertically drip eye drops due to fear or hand tremors.
[0043] The above are all preferred embodiments of the present application, and the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Therefore, any equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
