[0026] See also Figures 1 to 6 , the utility model provides a technical solution:

[0027] A medicine dispenser for infants and young children comprises a tube body 1, a connector 3 for discharging medicine liquid is provided at the bottom of the tube body 1, and a pacifier 4 for infants and young children to drink medicine is provided at the bottom of the connector 3, a piston 603 is sealingly and slidably connected inside the tube body 1, a support rod 602 is fixedly connected to the top of the piston 603, a limit plate 601 is fixedly connected to the top of the support rod 602, a pressing plate 6 for pressing medicine is fixedly connected to the top of the limit plate 601; support plates 5 for finger support are fixedly connected to the upper sides of the curved surface of the tube body 1.

[0028] When medication is needed for infants and young children, medical staff take the tube body 1 with their hands, hook the support plate 5 with the index finger and the middle finger, and press the pressing plate 6 with the thumb, so that the pressing plate 6 drives the piston 603 at the bottom of the support rod 602 to slide and increase pressure on the inner wall of the tube body 1, thereby facilitating the slow squeezing of the liquid medicine absorbed inside the tube body 1 to the nipple 4, and at the same time, contacting the top of the tube body 1 through the limiting plate 601 for limiting and blocking.

[0029] A connecting piece 302 is fixedly connected to the lower outer side of the connecting head 3, and a plurality of groups of protrusions 303 are fixedly connected to the lower outer curved surface of the connecting piece 302. The protrusions 303 are snapped into corresponding grooves 304 on the inner surface of the nipple 4. The cooperation between the protrusions 303 and the grooves 304 facilitates the assembly and disassembly of the nipple 4. An internal thread is provided at the bottom of the tube body 1, and an external thread 301 is sealingly threadedly connected to the surface of the internal thread. The external thread 301 is installed on the top of the connecting head 3, and a suction port 401 for infants to absorb liquid medicine is provided at the bottom center of the nipple 4.

[0030] The utility model provides a tube body 1, a connector 3, an external thread 301, a connector 302, a protrusion 303, a groove 304, a nipple 4 and a suction port 401 for use together, so as to protect the mouth of infants and young children when taking medicine, thereby improving the safety of infants and young children when using the medicine, and also facilitating the disassembly and installation of the connector 3 and the nipple 4 on the medication dispenser.

[0031] When the applicator needs to be assembled, the connector 3 is taken by hand so that the external thread 301 on the top is sealingly threadedly connected to the corresponding internal thread opened at the bottom of the tube body 1, so that the connector 3 is fixed to the tube body 1; then, the nipple 4 is taken so that the groove 304 arranged inside it is sealingly inserted into the protrusion 303 arranged on the connector 302, so that the nipple 4 can be installed. In addition, the nipple 4 is made of rubber material, can be stretched, and has a certain elasticity.

[0032] The front of the tube body 1 is provided with a transparent window 2 for viewing the position of the liquid medicine inside the tube body 1. The surface of the transparent window 2 is provided with a volume scale for accurately understanding the amount of liquid medicine. The liquid medicine capacity of the inner cavity of the tube body 1 is set to 20ml. The infant medication device designed in this application is a disposable product and is thrown away after use, thereby improving the safety of infants and young children when using it, and also reassuring the parents of the sick children.

[0033] Further

[0034] Material selection and safety design: To ensure the safety of infants and young children, the tube body 1 is made of food-grade or medical-grade plastic materials, such as polypropylene (PP) or polyethylene (PE). These materials are non-toxic, corrosion-resistant, not easy to break, and meet international safety standards for infant products. The transparent window 2 is made of tempered glass or highly transparent polycarbonate (PC) material to prevent breakage during use and reduce safety hazards.

[0035] Precise scale design: The volume scale on the transparent window 2 needs to be precisely calibrated to ensure accurate measurement. The scale should be from 0ml to 20ml, with 0.5ml or 1ml marked once, so that parents can accurately grasp the dosage. The scale mark is clearly visible and can be easily read even in a dim light environment to avoid over- or under-dosing.

[0036] Anti-slip and easy-to-grip design: The outer surface of the tube 1 is designed with anti-slip texture or concave-convex pattern, which is convenient for parents to hold firmly and not easy to slip even if their hands are wet. At the same time, the grip part is designed according to ergonomic principles to ensure that adults can hold it comfortably, easily control the medication action, and reduce operational errors.

[0037] Disposable packaging: To ensure the freshness of the liquid medicine and prevent contamination, the dispenser is sealed in sterile packaging and is opened before each use. The production date, expiration date and instructions for use are clearly marked on the packaging to ensure the traceability and safety of the product.

[0038] Dosage control mechanism: A precise dosage controller is designed at the top of the tube body 1, such as a dropper or push rod design, so that parents can easily control and release the required amount of medicine according to the scale indication to avoid waste or misoperation.

[0039] In specific use, when it is necessary to administer medicine to infants and young children, the medical staff takes the tube body 1 with their hands, hooks the support plate 5 with the index finger and the middle finger, and presses the pressing plate 6 with the thumb, so that the pressing plate 6 drives the piston 603 at the bottom of the support rod 602 to slide and increase pressure on the inner wall of the tube body 1, so that the liquid medicine absorbed in the tube body 1 is slowly squeezed to the nipple 4, and at the same time, it contacts the top of the tube body 1 through the limiting plate 601 for limiting and blocking;

[0040] When the applicator needs to be assembled, the connector 3 is taken by hand so that the external thread 301 on the top is sealingly threadedly connected to the corresponding internal thread opened at the bottom of the tube body 1, so that the connector 3 is fixed to the tube body 1; then, the nipple 4 is taken so that the groove 304 arranged inside it is sealingly inserted into the protrusion 303 arranged on the connector 302, so that the nipple 4 can be installed. In addition, the nipple 4 is made of rubber material, can be stretched, and has a certain elasticity.

[0041] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and that the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
