[0002] A dry powder inhaler is a device used for treating respiratory diseases, commonly used in the treatment of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. By converting the drug into a fine powder form, patients can directly inhale the drug into the lungs. Currently, there is a small window in the middle part of the existing dry powder inhalation device, through which the current remaining inhalable times can be seen. This number will decrease by one each time the powder is loaded by rotation, which is very intuitive and convenient. However, for visually impaired people or in special situations where the eyes cannot see anything, they cannot know the current remaining inhalable times, which brings great inconvenience to visually impaired people or those with unclear vision, making the device highly restricted and not conducive to practical applications. Summary of the Utility Model

[0003] In order to overcome the above-mentioned defects of the prior art, the utility model provides a Braille counting device applicable to a dry powder inhaler to solve the problem that in the prior art, for visually impaired people or in special situations where the eyes cannot see anything, they cannot know the current remaining inhalable times, and the device has a large limitation.

[0004] To solve the above technical problems, the utility model provides the following technical solutions: A Braille counting device applicable to a dry powder inhaler, comprising

[0005] A dry powder inhaler main body, a dosing knob is arranged at the bottom of the dry powder inhaler main body, and a mouthpiece is fixedly installed at the top of the dry powder inhaler main body;

[0007] A control terminal, which is arranged inside the installation component;

[0008] An infrared counting component, the inner surface of the middle part of which is sleeved and installed on the outer surface of the dry powder inhaler main body.

[0009] Among them, it further includes a protective cover and a speaker. The inner surface of the protective cover is movably sleeved on the outer surface of the mouthpiece, and the speaker is arranged at the bottom of the installation component.

[0010] Among them, the installation component includes a sleeve, a collar, and a convex column. The inner surface of the sleeve is sleeved and installed on the outer surface of the dosing knob. The inner surface of the middle part of the collar is movably sleeved on the outer surface of the dry powder inhaler body. A plurality of connecting blocks are arranged on the outer surface of the collar. Springs are fixedly connected to the inner walls of the tops of the plurality of connecting blocks. The end of the spring away from the inner wall of the connecting block is fixedly installed with the top of the convex column. A lever is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the convex column. The outer surface of the lever is slidably installed on the inner wall of the side of the connecting block. A plurality of L-shaped connecting rods are arranged at the top of the sleeve parallel to the position of the connecting block. The inner surface of the top of the L-shaped connecting rod is clamped with the outer surface of the convex column.

The reflector 82 is arranged parallel to the lower part of the infrared sensor 81, and the side surface of the reflector 82 is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the collar 51;

[0032] By setting the hoop 80, the inner surface of the hoop 80 is provided with anti-slip lines, so that after being sleeved and installed on the dry powder inhaler main body 1, it can be not easily moved without external force.

[0033] Among them, the speaker 7 is electrically connected to the control terminal 6.

[0034] Among them, the infrared sensor 81 is electrically connected to the control terminal 6.

[0035] Example two, as shown in Appendix Figure 1 to Appendix Figure 5 , including an installation component 5, the middle part of the installation component 5 is sleeved and installed outside the dry powder inhaler main body 1;

[0036] Among them, the installation component 5 includes a sleeve 50, a collar 51, and a convex column 54. The inner surface of the sleeve 50 is sleeved and installed on the outer surface of the dosing knob 2. The inner surface of the middle part of the collar 51 is movably sleeved on the outer surface of the dry powder inhaler main body 1. A plurality of connecting blocks 52 are arranged on the outer surface of the collar 51. The inner walls of the tops of the plurality of connecting blocks 52 are fixedly connected with a spring 53. The end of the spring 53 away from the inner wall of the connecting block 52 is fixedly installed on the top of the convex column 54.

After the external force disappears, the spring 53 resets and releases the elastic potential energy, causing the spring 53 to drive the convex column 54 to return to its original position.

[0038] Among them, the outer surface of the sleeve 50 is provided with anti-slip lines.

[0039] The working process of the present utility model is as follows:

[0040] For visually impaired people or in special cases where the eyes cannot see anything, before using the dry powder inhaler, it can be handed over to a person with normal vision to install structures such as the installation component 5 and the infrared counting component 8 on the outside of the dry powder inhaler main body 1 and the dosing knob 2.

[0041] During installation, first, the sleeve 50 is sleeved on the outside of the dosing knob 2, and the collar 51 is inserted through the top of the dry powder inhaler main body 1 so that it is sleeved on the outside of the dry powder inhaler main body 1. When the connecting block 52 reaches the top position of the L-shaped connecting rod 56, the installer bends the L-shaped connecting rod 56 to a certain extent, and then under the reset action, the top is snapped into the inside of the connecting block 52. At the same time, the lever 55 is moved upward to drive the connected convex column 54 to move upward. Then, after the top of the L-shaped connecting rod 56 is inside the connecting block 52, the lever 55 is released. After the external force disappears, under the reset of the convex column 54, the connected convex column 54 is pushed into the inside of the L-shaped connecting rod 56 for fixation. Finally, the hoop 80 equipped with the infrared sensor 81 is sleeved on the outside of the dry powder inhaler main body 1 and rotated to directly above the reflector 82, thus completing the installation of the auxiliary device, which is convenient for disassembly and installation and does not affect the normal use of structures such as the dry powder inhaler main body 1.

[0042] After that, when the user uses it, the protective cover 4 can be opened, and the dosing knob 2 sleeved and installed is rotated through the sleeve 50. After dosing, the medicine is inhaled through the mouthpiece 3, and the protective cover 4 is covered after the medicine inhalation is completed, thus completing the medicine inhalation.

[0043] During the process of rotating the sleeve 50 to inhale the medicine, the collar 51 installed on the outside of the dry powder inhaler main body 1 through structures such as the connecting block 52 and the L-shaped connecting rod 56 will rotate along the outside of the dry powder inhaler main body 1, thereby driving the reflector 82 to move away from the bottom of the infrared sensor 81. At this time, the distance for the infrared sensor 81 to emit and receive signals changes, and the changed signal is transmitted to the control terminal 6 inside the sleeve 50. The algorithm module prefabricated inside the control terminal 6 processes the changed signal and performs counting, and the control terminal 6 will control the speaker 7 to announce the remaining number of uses, thereby improving the convenience of using the medicine for visually impaired people or in special cases where the eyes cannot see anything through intelligent processing.
