Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of medical equipment, in particular to an atomizing mask suitable for infants and young children. Background Art

[0002] A nebulizer mask is a medical auxiliary device used for nebulization therapy. It allows the drug to be inhaled into the patient's respiratory tract through the nasal cavity or mouth in the form of atomization. The main function of the nebulizer mask is to help the patient convert liquid drugs into aerosol form through breathing so that the drugs can reach the lungs and respiratory tract more deeply. It is often used to treat asthma. During the nebulization treatment, the patient inhales the drug through a mask covering the mouth and nose. This method is relatively simple and does not require special cooperation skills from the patient. It is suitable for patients with poor physical strength, intelligence or comprehension ability, and patients who cannot cooperate with the use of mouth-containing nebulizers.

[0003] In the prior art, due to the lack of understanding of the importance of the disease and treatment, infants and young children may feel fear or anxiety when faced with unfamiliar medical equipment, unfamiliar treatment procedures or the smell of medicine. These emotional reactions may cause them to refuse to wear the nebulizer mask, or cry and struggle during the treatment, resulting in the mask being unable to remain stably in the correct position or even falling off, thereby affecting the effective inhalation of the drug, resulting in the inability to achieve the treatment goal, and ultimately the failure of the entire treatment process. In addition, even if parents or medical staff try to comfort and calm the infants and young children, due to their limited cooperation, if the mask fixing method is not suitable for the unique facial structure of young children, the nebulizer mask may be easily displaced or fall off during use, further exacerbating the difficulty of treatment. Summary of the invention

[0004] The utility model aims to solve the shortcomings in the prior art and proposes an atomizing mask suitable for infants and young children.

[0005] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the utility model adopts the following technical scheme: an atomizing mask suitable for infants and young children, comprising a mask body, capsule parts are fixed on both sides of the mask body, a soft line is passed through the inner wall of the capsule part, an expander is fixed at one end of the soft line, a positive soft rack is fixed at one end of the expander on one side, and a reverse soft rack is fixed at one end of the expander on the other side, the positive soft rack tooth groove is meshed with a tightening gear, the reverse soft rack is meshed with the tightening gear, a shaft column is fixed on the inner wall of the tightening gear, one end of the shaft column is rotatably connected with a round head part, a through groove is provided on the surface of the round head part, and a control knob is fixed at the other end of the shaft column. In the prior art, due to the lack of awareness of the importance of diseases and treatments, infants and young children may feel fear or anxiety when facing unfamiliar medical equipment, unfamiliar treatment procedures or the smell of medicines. These emotional reactions may cause them to refuse to wear the atomizing mask, or cry and struggle during the treatment process, so that the mask cannot be stably maintained in the correct position or even falls off, thereby affecting Ineffective inhalation of the drug leads to the inability to achieve the treatment goal, which may ultimately lead to the failure of the entire treatment process. In addition, even if parents or medical staff try to comfort and calm the infants and young children, due to their limited cooperation, if the mask fixing method is not suitable for the unique facial structure of young children, the atomizer mask may be easily displaced or fall off during use, further exacerbating the difficulty of treatment. In response to such problems, the utility model solves the problem by installing a tightening gear, so that when the atomizer mask needs to be worn on the infants and young children, the medical staff puts one end of the reverse soft rack and the forward soft rack into the through groove of the round head piece, and then rotates the control knob counterclockwise to make the tightening gear rotate counterclockwise, meshing the two racks through the through groove, so that the mask body is tightened on the infant's face. Due to the adjustment of the tightening direction by the expander, the round head piece will eventually stay at a position slightly behind the top of the infant's head, without hindering the infant from lying flat. At the same time, the expander prevents compression from causing a large pressure on the infant's face, thereby improving the usability of the equipment and improving the user experience.

[0006] Preferably, wings are fixed on both sides of the mask body, an elastic rope is fixed on one side of the wing, and a pad is fixed in the middle of the elastic rope. In the prior art, when infants and young children use atomizer masks for inhalation treatment, they often try to get rid of the mask because of strong curiosity, misunderstanding of the necessity of treatment, discomfort or just wanting to move freely. Since their hand movements are relatively uncontrolled and they like to explore the surrounding environment, they may instinctively touch or grab the mask covering their face with their hands, especially when they feel difficulty breathing, irritated by the smell of medicine or sensitive to the material of the mask. Infants and young children are more likely to instinctively use their hands to flip the mask up in an attempt to remove it from their faces. This behavior will not only interrupt the treatment process, but may also cause the mask to fall off completely, making it impossible for the medicine to be effectively inhaled, thereby reducing the effectiveness of the treatment. To address this problem, the utility model solves it by installing a pad. When medical personnel put a mask on an infant or young child, they pull the elastic rope to buckle the pad on the lower jaw. Even if the infant or young child touches or grabs the mask covering the face and flips it up, it will be blocked by the pad, so that the mask remains in its original position, thereby achieving the effect of improving the stability of product use.

[0007] Preferably, a thick tube is fixed to the front of the mask body, a thin tube is fixed to the bottom of the thick tube, and a protective layer groove is provided on the circumference of the thin tube. In the prior art, since infants and young children want to move freely, the connected trachea and product are easy to fall off, and their hand movements are relatively uncontrolled and they like to explore the surrounding environment, so they are easy to grab the trachea and pull it away from the original position, causing drug leakage and loss of treatment effect. To solve such problems, the utility model adopts the method of providing a protective layer groove to achieve a solution, which realizes that when the trachea and the thin tube slide due to infants and young children, the protective layer groove will be blocked every time the trachea slides a certain distance, thereby preventing its movement and increasing the friction between the inner wall of the trachea and the surface of the thin tube, preventing the trachea from falling off, thereby improving the stability of product use.

[0008] Preferably, a limiting plate is fixed to one end of the flexible wire, and the limiting plate increases the force-bearing area, thereby preventing the flexible wire from scratching the mask and increasing the service life of the product.

[0009] Preferably, the control knob is provided with anti-slip grooves in a linear array on its circumference, so as to facilitate operation by medical personnel wearing gloves and improve user experience.

[0010] Preferably, a soft steel bar is provided on the front side of the mask body to facilitate pinching the mask to fit the face and improve the user experience.

[0011] Preferably, the back side of the round head piece is designed as a curved surface, which fits the top of the back of the head, conforms to ergonomics, and improves user experience. Beneficial Effects

[0012] 1. In the prior art, due to the lack of understanding of the importance of the disease and treatment, infants and young children may feel fear or anxiety when facing unfamiliar medical equipment, unfamiliar treatment procedures or the smell of medicine. These emotional reactions may cause them to refuse to wear the nebulizer mask, or cry and struggle during the treatment, resulting in the mask being unable to stay in the correct position or even falling off, which in turn affects the effective inhalation of the drug, resulting in the inability to achieve the treatment goal, and ultimately may cause the failure of the entire treatment process. In addition, even if parents or medical staff try to comfort and calm the infants and young children, due to their limited cooperation, if the mask fixing method is not suitable for the unique facial structure of young children, it may also cause the nebulizer mask to The mask is easy to shift or fall off during use, further aggravating the difficulty of treatment. To solve this problem, the utility model adopts the method of installing a tightening gear. When the infant needs to wear an atomizer mask, the medical staff puts one end of the reverse soft rack and the forward soft rack into the through-slot of the round head piece, and then rotates the control knob counterclockwise to make the tightening gear rotate counterclockwise, meshing the two racks through the through-slot, so that the mask body is tightened on the infant's face. Due to the adjustment of the tightening direction by the expander, the round head piece will eventually stay at a position slightly behind the infant's head, without hindering the infant from lying flat. At the same time, the expander prevents compression from causing greater pressure on the infant's face, thereby improving the usability of the equipment and improving the user experience.

[0013] 2. In the prior art, when infants and young children use atomizer masks for inhalation treatment, they often try to get rid of the mask because of strong curiosity, misunderstanding of the necessity of treatment, discomfort or simply wanting to move freely. Since their hand movements are relatively uncontrolled and they like to explore the surrounding environment, they may instinctively touch or grab the mask covering their face with their hands. Especially when they feel difficulty breathing, irritated by the smell of the medicine or sensitive to the material of the mask, infants and young children are more likely to instinctively flip the mask up with their hands in an attempt to remove it from their faces. This behavior will not only interrupt the treatment process, but may also cause the mask to fall off completely, making it impossible for the medicine to be effectively inhaled, thereby reducing the effect of the treatment. In response to such problems, the utility model solves this problem by installing a pad, so that when medical staff put on the mask for infants and young children, they pull the elastic rope to buckle the pad on the lower jaw. Even if the infant touches or grabs the mask covering the face to flip up, it will be blocked by the pad, so that the mask remains in its original position, thereby achieving the effect of improving the stability of product use.

[0014] 3. In the prior art, since infants and young children want to move freely, the connected trachea and product are easy to fall off, and their hand movements are relatively uncontrolled and they like to explore the surrounding environment, so they are easy to grab the trachea and pull it away from the original position, causing drug leakage and loss of treatment effect. To solve this problem, the utility model adopts a method of providing a protective layer groove, which ensures that when the trachea and the capillary slide due to the infant, the protective layer groove will block the trachea every time it slides a certain distance, thereby preventing its movement and increasing the friction between the inner wall of the trachea and the surface of the capillary, preventing the trachea from falling off, thereby improving the stability of product use.

[0023] In order to make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of the present invention easy to understand, the present invention is further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments and drawings, but the following embodiments are only preferred embodiments of the present invention, not all. Based on the embodiments in the implementation mode, other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work are all within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0024] The specific embodiments of the present utility model are described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Specific embodiments

[0025] Reference Figure 1-6 A spray mask suitable for infants and young children, comprising a mask body 1, capsules 2 are fixed on both sides of the mask body 1, a soft line 201 is passed through the inner wall of the capsule 2, a face expansion piece 202 is fixed at one end of the soft line 201, a positive soft rack 203 is fixed at one end of the face expansion piece 202 on one side, a reverse soft rack 204 is fixed at one end of the face expansion piece 202 on the other side, a tightening gear 205 is meshed in the tooth groove of the positive soft rack 203, the reverse soft rack 204 is meshed with the tightening gear 205, a shaft column 206 is fixed on the inner wall of the tightening gear 205, and the shaft column 20 6 is rotatably connected to a round head 207, and a through groove 208 is provided on the surface of the round head 207. A control knob 209 is fixed to the other end of the shaft column 206. Due to the lack of awareness of the importance of disease and treatment, infants and young children may feel fear or anxiety when facing unfamiliar medical equipment, unfamiliar treatment procedures or the smell of medicine. These emotional reactions may cause them to refuse to wear the nebulizer mask, or cry and struggle during the treatment, so that the mask cannot be stably maintained in the correct position or even fall off, thereby affecting the effective inhalation of the medicine, resulting in the inability to achieve the treatment goal, and ultimately the failure of the entire treatment process. In addition, even if parents or medical staff try to comfort and calm the infants and young children, due to their limited cooperation, if the fixing method of the mask is not suitable for the unique facial structure of young children, the nebulizer mask may be easily displaced or fall off during use, further exacerbating the difficulty of treatment. The problem is solved by installing a tightening gear 205, so that when the nebulizer mask needs to be worn by infants and young children, the medical staff can turn the reverse soft rack 204 and the forward soft rack 205 to adjust the position of the nebulizer mask. One end of the soft rack 203 is placed in the through slot 208 of the round head 207, and then the control knob 209 is rotated counterclockwise to rotate the tightening gear 205 counterclockwise, and the two meshing racks pass through the through slot 208, so that the mask body 1 is tightened on the face of the infant. Due to the adjustment of the tightening direction by the face expander 202, the round head 207 will eventually stay at a position slightly behind the top of the infant's head, which will not hinder the infant from lying flat. At the same time, the face expander 202 prevents the pressure on the infant's face from being too great, thereby improving the usability of the device and the user experience. The back of the round head 207 is set as an arc surface, which fits the back of the head, conforms to ergonomics, and improves the user experience. The control knob 209 is provided with a linear array of anti-slip grooves 2010 around it, which is convenient for medical staff to operate with gloves, thus improving the user experience. A limiting plate 2011 is fixed to one end of the flexible line 201, and the limiting plate 2011 increases the force-bearing area, prevents the flexible line 201 from scratching the mask, and increases the service life of the product.

[0026] A soft steel bar 101 is provided on the front of the mask body 1 to facilitate pinching the mask to fit the face and improve the user experience. Wings 3 are fixed on both sides of the mask body 1, an elastic rope 301 is fixed on one side of the wing 3, and a pad 302 is fixed in the middle of the elastic rope 301. When infants and young children use a nebulizer mask for inhalation treatment, they often try to get rid of the mask because of curiosity, lack of understanding of the necessity of treatment, discomfort, or simply wanting to move freely. Because their hand movements are relatively uncontrolled and they like to explore the surrounding environment, they may instinctively touch or grab the mask covering their face with their hands, especially when they feel difficulty breathing, irritated by the smell of medicine, or are sensitive to the material of the mask. Infants and young children are more likely to instinctively use their hands to flip the mask up in an attempt to remove it from their faces. This behavior will not only interrupt the treatment process, but may also cause the mask to fall off completely, making it impossible for the medicine to be effectively inhaled, thereby reducing the effectiveness of the treatment. This problem is solved by installing a pad 302. When medical personnel put a mask on an infant or young child, they pull the elastic rope 301 to buckle the pad 302 on the lower jaw. Even if the infant or young child touches or grabs the mask covering the face and flips it up, it will be blocked by the pad 302, so that the mask remains in its original position, thereby achieving the effect of improving the stability of product use. A thick tube 4 is fixed on the front of the mask body 1, and a thin tube 401 is fixed on the bottom of the thick tube 4. A protective layer groove 402 is provided on the circumference of the thin tube 401. Since infants and young children want to move freely, the connected trachea and the product may fall off easily. In addition, their hand movements are relatively uncontrolled and they like to explore the surrounding environment. They may easily grab the trachea and pull it away from the original position, causing drug leakage and loss of therapeutic effect. This problem is solved by providing a protective layer groove 402. When the trachea and the thin tube 401 slide due to infants and young children, the protective layer groove 402 will block the trachea every time it slides a certain distance, thereby preventing its movement and increasing the friction between the inner wall of the trachea and the surface of the thin tube 401 to prevent the trachea from falling off, thereby improving the stability of product use.

[0027] Working principle of the utility model: when it is necessary to wear an atomizing mask for infants and young children, medical personnel put one end of the reverse soft rack 204 and the forward soft rack 203 into the through slot 208 of the round head piece 207, and then rotate the control knob 209 counterclockwise to rotate the tightening gear 205 counterclockwise, meshing the two racks through the through slot 208, so that the mask body 1 is tightened on the infant's face. Due to the adjustment of the tightening direction by the face expansion piece 202, the round head piece 207 will eventually stay at a position slightly behind the top of the infant's head, without hindering the infant from lying flat. The face expander 202 prevents compression on the infant's face and causes greater pressure. When medical staff put a mask on the infant, they pull the elastic rope 301 to buckle the pad 302 on the lower jaw. Even if the infant touches or grabs the mask covering the face and turns it up, it will be blocked by the pad 302, so that the mask remains in its original position. When the infant causes the trachea and the capillary 401 to slide, each time the trachea slides a certain distance, it will be blocked by the protective layer groove 402, which prevents its movement while increasing the friction between the inner wall of the trachea and the surface of the capillary 401 to prevent the trachea from falling.
