[0002] Respiratory diseases are common diseases. With the deterioration of air quality, the incidence of respiratory diseases is increasing, especially chronic respiratory diseases, which will bring great pain to patients. At present, the main and most effective ways to treat chronic respiratory diseases in hospitals are metered-dose inhalers, dry powder inhalers, nebulizers, etc. Dry powder inhalers, also called powder aerosols, are generally administered using inhalers.

[0003] Patent No. CN210205530 proposes a needle and its drug delivery device for puncturing and inhaling a powder aerosol capsule. The needle includes a needle tip, and the needle tip includes at least one main inclined plane and tip inclined planes arranged on both sides of the main inclined plane. Among them, the main inclined plane is prepared on the needle tip at a first plane angle, the tip inclined plane is prepared on the needle tip at a second plane angle, and the included angle between the main inclined plane and the central axis of the needle tip is a first rotation angle, and the included angle between the tip inclined plane and the central axis of the needle tip is a second rotation angle. The two tip inclined planes intersect at the outermost end of the needle tip. Its advantages are that the needle tip of the needle with the main inclined plane and the tip inclined plane is sharper, and at the same time, since the contact surface between the needle tip and the capsule is smaller than that of the existing wedge-shaped needle or pencil-shaped needle, and the cutting edge is longer, the capsule is gradually cut along the tip inclined plane and the main inclined plane, and a relatively regular puncture hole with a larger area can be gradually formed.

[0004] The puncture needle in the existing powder aerosol capsule inhaler is prone to uneven or insufficient penetration of the capsule due to unstable puncture force.

[0005] Therefore, this application provides a puncture needle for a powder aerosol capsule to meet the demand. Content of the Utility Model

[0026] Please refer to Figure 1-2 , the present invention provides a puncture needle for a powder aerosol capsule, including an inhaler body 1. A mouthpiece 2 is threadedly connected to the top end of the inhaler body 1. A medicine placement groove 4 is installed in the inhaler body 1 directly below the mouthpiece 2. Puncture openings 5 are symmetrically drilled on the side wall of the medicine placement groove 4. Corresponding sliding grooves are symmetrically drilled on the side wall of the inhaler body 1 and are corresponding to the puncture openings 5. A pressing block 3 is slidably connected in the sliding groove. One end of the pressing block 3 close to the medicine placement groove 4 is detachably connected to a puncture needle 9. A collar 7 is sleeved on the puncture needle 9, and the collar 7 is fixedly connected to the inner top wall of the inhaler body 1 through a connecting rod 8. A disinfection cotton 14 is detachably connected to the inner wall of the collar 7, and the disinfection cotton 14 is sleeved on the surface of the puncture needle 9. A first compression spring 6 is sleeved on the surface of the puncture needle 9 between the collar 7 and the pressing block 3, and both ends of the first compression spring 6 are fixedly connected to the collar 7 and the pressing block 3 respectively.

[0027] This solution can achieve that when using a powder aerosol capsule, the mouthpiece 2 can be opened and the capsule can be placed in the medicine placement groove 4. Then the mouthpiece 2 is closed. At this time, the two pressing blocks 3 are pressed close to each other, so that the puncture needle 9 passes through the disinfection cotton 14 in the collar 7 for disinfection and then pierces the capsule in the medicine placement groove 4 through the puncture opening 5, thereby puncturing the capsule. Through the support of the collar 7, the force application point of the puncture needle 9 can be increased, avoiding shaking during the movement and being unable to accurately pierce the capsule. After puncturing, the pressing block 3 is released, so that the puncture needle 9 automatically retracts into the disinfection cotton 14 for disinfection through the first compression spring 6, effectively achieving the effect that the puncture needle 9 has sufficient force to penetrate the powder aerosol capsule and can be automatically disinfected after each puncture.

[0028] Embodiment 2

[0029] Please refer to Figure 3, a plug 15 is embedded and installed in the collar 7, and the plug 15 abuts against the disinfection cotton 14. A rubber ring 16 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the plug 15, and the rubber ring 16 abuts against the inner wall of the collar 7. The inner diameter of the collar 7 near one end of the pressing block 3 is larger than the inner diameter of the disinfection cotton 14, and the inner diameter near one end of the plug 15 is larger than the outer diameter of the disinfection cotton 14. After the puncture needle 9 is used multiple times, the disinfection cotton 14 will also be contaminated and the disinfection strength will be insufficient. At this time, the plug 15 can be taken out of the collar 7 to replace the disinfection cotton 14. After placing the new disinfection cotton 14 in the collar 7 and snapping it, the plug 15 is inserted into the collar 7 to abut against the disinfection cotton 14, and the resistance is increased through the rubber ring 16 to avoid the effect of falling off.

[0030] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 4 , a threaded groove 17 is fixedly connected to one end of the pressing block 3 near the medicine placing groove 4. A threaded shaft 18 is fixedly connected to one end of the puncture needle 9 near the threaded groove 17, and the threaded shaft 18 is threadedly connected to the threaded groove 17. A second compression spring 10 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the medicine placing groove 4. A support groove 11 is fixedly connected to the top end of the second compression spring 10, and a powder aerosol capsule is placed in the support groove 11. The support groove 11 is kept at the same horizontal position as the bottom of the puncture port 5 under the normal state of the second compression spring 10. The bottom end of the suction nozzle 2 is fixedly connected to a pressing plate 12 through a connecting shaft 13, and the pressing plate 12 is engaged with the medicine placing groove 4. When puncturing powder aerosol capsules of different specifications of materials, a puncture needle 9 that matches it can be selected, fixed by threading the threaded shaft 18 and the threaded groove 17, and then the capsule is placed in the medicine placing groove 4 so that its bottom abuts against the support groove 11. Subsequently, the suction nozzle 2 is closed, so that the pressing plate 12 at the bottom of the suction nozzle 2 is snapped into the medicine placing groove 4 to press the capsule, so that the capsule is elastically adjusted through the support groove 11 to be fixed. At this time, the puncture can be performed through the puncture needle 9, effectively achieving the effect that the puncture needle 9 and the medicine placing groove 4 are applicable to powder aerosol capsules of different specifications.

[0031] The working principle and usage process of the present utility model: In the process of using the present utility model, first, when using a powder aerosol capsule, the suction nozzle 2 can be opened and placed in the medicine placing groove 4, and then the suction nozzle 2 is closed. At this time, the two pressing blocks 3 are pressed against each other, so that the puncture needle 9 passes through the disinfection cotton 14 in the collar 7 for disinfection and then penetrates into the capsule in the medicine placing groove 4 from the puncture port 5, thereby puncturing the capsule. Through the support of the collar 7, the force application point of the puncture needle 9 can be increased to avoid shaking during the movement and being unable to accurately pierce the capsule. After puncturing, the pressing block 3 is released, so that the puncture needle 9 automatically retracts into the disinfection cotton 14 for disinfection through the first compression spring 6, effectively achieving the effect that the puncture needle 9 has sufficient force to penetrate the powder aerosol capsule and can be automatically disinfected after each puncture.

[0032] Then, after the puncture needle 9 is used many times, the disinfection cotton 14 will also be contaminated, and the disinfection strength is insufficient. At this time, the plug 15 can be taken out from the ring 7, and the disinfection cotton 14 can be replaced. After the new disinfection cotton 14 is placed in the ring 7 and engaged, the plug 15 is inserted into the ring 7 to contact with the disinfection cotton 14, and the rubber ring 16 is used to increase the resistance to avoid falling off.

[0033] Finally, when puncturing powder aerosol capsules of different specifications and materials, a matching puncture needle 9 can be selected and fixed by threading the threaded shaft 18 and the threaded groove 17, and then the capsule is placed in the medicine placement groove 4 so that its bottom contacts the bracket 11, and then the suction nozzle 2 is closed, so that the pressure plate 12 at the bottom of the suction nozzle 2 is inserted into the medicine placement groove 4 to press the capsule, so that the capsule is elastically adjusted by the bracket 11 and thus fixed. At this time, puncture can be performed by the puncture needle 9, effectively achieving the effect that the puncture needle 9 and the medicine placement groove 4 are suitable for powder aerosol capsules of different specifications.

[0034] Finally, it should be noted that the above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.
