Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the field of medical auxiliary equipment, and in particular relates to a prefilled oral medicine cup. Background Art

[0002] In clinical treatment, for some special patient groups, such as children, the elderly, and patients who need to take medications through nasogastric or gastrostomy routes, there is often a lack of corresponding oral liquid preparations for oral tablets or capsules for clinical use. For these patient groups, oral tablets or capsules can easily cause difficulties in medication, so medical staff need to prepare oral liquid medicines for patients.

[0003] Liquid drugs currently used to prepare oral liquid medicines are usually placed in bottles of the same type as intravenous infusions, which makes it easy to confuse the bottles of liquid drugs with the bottles used for intravenous infusions. When preparing oral liquid medicines, the separately ground solid drugs and liquid drugs are mixed in containers such as paper cups and stirred before being given to patients. For patients, it is not only inconvenient to bring their own paper cups for taking medicines, but also if the solid drugs are not fully ground, it is easy to cause the drugs to not be completely dissolved, which will affect the effect of drug administration. In addition, the oral dosage for each patient is also difficult to grasp. In addition, the bottles for storing liquid drugs are repeatedly disinfected and reused, which increases the risk of cross-infection.

[0004] Therefore, the utility model provides a prefilled oral medicine cup. Utility Model Content

[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems, the utility model designs a prefilled oral medicine cup, which temporarily configures commercially available tablets, capsules, injections or raw materials into disposable oral liquid preparations, thereby meeting the needs of clinical medication, ensuring the principle of sterility, and improving patients' compliance with the medicine.

[0028] Example 1

[0029] See also Figures 1 to 6 As shown, a prefilled oral medicine cup includes a cup body 1, a grinding mechanism 2 and a drinking mechanism 3. The grinding mechanism 2 includes a support collar 21 detachably mounted on the top of the cup body 1, a grinding sleeve 22 threadedly mounted at the top outlet of the cup body 1, an elastic member 23 fixedly connected to the grooves on both sides of the top of the support collar 21, and a pressing member 24 movably connected to the grinding sleeve 22 and the inside of the support collar 21; the drinking mechanism 3 includes a fixed seat 31 fixedly connected to the side of the cup body 1, a rotating cover 32 rotatably mounted at the bottom of the fixed seat 31 through a hinge mechanism, and a drinking port 33 arranged at the top of the cup body 1. The support collar 21 can be detachably mounted on the top of the cup body 1 by threaded connection, snap connection, or other connection methods.

[0030] The side wall of the cup body 1 is provided with a label pocket 11 and a scale mark 12. The label pocket 11 is used to place the patient's condition information, and the scale mark 12 is used to display the amount of liquid in the cup body, helping the user or medical staff to accurately measure and prepare the dosage of the medicine.

[0031] The bottom ends of the grinding sleeve 22 and the pressing member 24 are conical structures and cooperate with each other, and a plurality of protrusions are provided on the conical surfaces. The protrusions provide additional friction and impact points, making the grinding more efficient, ensuring uniform refinement of the drug, and thus helping to improve the dissolution rate and bioavailability of the drug.

[0032] The lower end of the grinding sleeve 22 is provided with a plurality of through holes 221 .

[0033] The pressing member 24 is provided with a waterproof rubber ring 241 and the waterproof rubber ring 241 is arranged in the grinding sleeve 22 ; the pressing member 24 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the elastic member 23 .

[0034] The drinking opening 33 is provided with a pull ring seal 331 so that the oral medicine cup meets the sterility requirements. The drinking opening 33 is provided with a detachable seal plug, and a foldable drinking straw is provided between the fixing seat 31 and the rotating cover 32.

[0035] The upper end of the rotating cover 32 is connected to the upper end of the fixing base 31 by a snap connection.

[0036] The cup body 1 and the rotating cover 32 are both made of transparent hard plastic.

[0037] Example 2

[0038] The operating principle of the utility model:

[0039] This prefilled oral medicine cup is a disposable product.

[0040] First, the support collar 21 located above the cup body is removed. Since the pressing member 24 is connected to the support collar 21 via the elastic member 23, when the support collar 21 is removed, the pressing member 24 is also removed.

[0041] After the support collar 21 and the pressing member 24 are removed, the solid medicine is placed in the grinding sleeve 22. Afterwards, the support collar 21 is reinstalled on the top of the cup body 1, which also returns the pressing member 24 to its original position and prepares for the grinding operation.

[0042] The pressing piece 24 is provided with a waterproof rubber ring 241, which is located inside the grinding sleeve 22, and at this time, the through hole 221 at the bottom of the grinding sleeve 22 fits with the inner wall of the outlet of the cup body 1 to prevent the medicine from falling out of the grinding sleeve 22 during grinding. The bottom of the pressing piece 24 and the grinding sleeve 22 are both designed as a conical structure, and a protrusion is provided on the conical surface. The pressing piece 24 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the elastic piece 23, and the pressing piece 24 will rebound and reset after being pressed. When the medical staff continuously presses the pressing piece 24, these protrusions will squeeze with the solid medicine, and grind the solid medicine into fine powder through physical action.

[0043] After the solid medicine is ground, the grinding sleeve 22 needs to be rotated to move downward along the outlet of the cup body 1. When the upper end of the grinding sleeve 22 reaches the outlet above the cup body 1, the grinding sleeve 22 cannot move further downward. At this position, the lower end of the grinding sleeve 22 extends into the cup, and the through hole 221 at the lower end is also located in the cup.

[0044] Then, the medical staff opens the sealing plug on the drinking opening 33, then pulls the pull ring of the pull ring sealing plug 331 to open the sealing plug, and injects the configured liquid medicine into the cup body 1 through the drinking opening 33. After the addition of the configured liquid medicine is completed, the sealing plug is closed again.

[0045] By manually shaking the oral medicine cup, the prepared liquid medicine will enter the grinding sleeve 22 through the through hole 221 at the lower end of the grinding sleeve 22. This operation will cause the powder at the bottom of the grinding sleeve 22 and the bottom of the pressing piece 24 to be washed down, and then fully mixed with the prepared liquid medicine, ensuring that the powder medicine is completely dissolved in the liquid medicine. This maximizes the use of medicine, reduces the waste of medicine, and ensures that the patient obtains an accurate dose of medicine when taking it. A waterproof rubber ring 241 is provided on the pressing piece 24 and the waterproof rubber ring 241 is arranged in the grinding sleeve 22. The main purpose of this design is to ensure that during the use of the oral medicine cup, especially when manually shaking to mix the medicine and prepare the liquid, the internal liquid will not leak out from the joint between the pressing piece and the grinding sleeve.

[0046] After the preparation of the liquid medicine is completed, the rotating cover 32 on the side of the cup body 1 is opened, and the drinking straw inside is taken out and inserted into the cup body 1 through the drinking opening for the patient to drink.
