[0043] For patients with respiratory diseases, nebulizer therapy is often used as an adjunct treatment. Nebulizers disperse medication into tiny droplets, which are directly inhaled and act directly on the affected area, resulting in a better therapeutic effect. However, conventional nebulizer therapy is usually performed in hospitals, which presents numerous inconveniences, such as long queues and waiting times. Therefore, this type of treatment is hampered by limited medical resources. Consequently, some patients prefer to perform nebulizer therapy at home. If a doctor can prescribe the medication, patients can perform the necessary adjunctive therapy at home or at work. This would allow nebulizers to relieve or treat symptoms without disrupting the normal life and work of some patients, providing significant convenience.

[0044] To address the aforementioned problems, this utility model proposes a portable atomizer. Figures 1 to 5 This is a schematic diagram of one embodiment of the portable atomizer 1000 of this utility model.

[0045] Please refer to Figures 1 to 5This utility model proposes a portable nebulizer 1000. Traditional nebulization therapy is usually performed in hospitals, but hospitals have limited treatment resources and it is difficult to meet the demand for large-scale nebulization therapy. At the same time, some patients who are capable of self-nebulization therapy prefer to complete the nebulization therapy at home. In this case, the portable nebulizer can meet the needs of patients for self-nebulization therapy outside the hospital. The portable nebulizer 1000 proposed in this embodiment can meet the needs of drug storage and convenient self-nebulization therapy, which greatly improves the ease of use of traditional nebulizers. Specifically, the interior of the outer shell 1 is divided into an atomizing chamber 12 and a liquid storage chamber 13 by a first partition 11. The liquid storage chamber 13 is mainly responsible for the storage and supply of drugs. The rotating box 21 can rotate at a certain angle on the inner wall of the liquid storage chamber 13. In use, firstly, the rotating box 21 is rotated so that the second opening 212 of the rotating box 21 extends outward from the first opening 17 to the outside of the outer shell 1. Then, multiple drug storage tubes 22 are sequentially placed into the rotating box 21, and one end of each drug storage tube 22 is connected to the conductive member 3. Then, the rotating box 21 is closed. The position is rotated to the inside of the liquid storage chamber 13. According to actual usage needs, the liquid medicine in the multiple drug storage tubes 22 can be introduced into the nebulization chamber 12 through the guide 3. The nebulization structure 4 in the nebulization chamber 12 can mix and atomize the liquid medicine and promote the liquid medicine to be discharged from the nebulization chamber 12 for the patient to use. In this embodiment, multiple drug storage tubes 22 are provided to store a certain amount of liquid medicine, which is convenient to carry and use when going out. In addition, multiple drug storage tubes 22 are easy to disassemble and replace, which facilitates the replenishment of liquid medicine and the maintenance and cleaning of the drug storage structure 2.

[0046] The inlet 221 and outlet 222 of the drug storage tube 22 are respectively equipped with a cap 223 and a corresponding sealing element for sealing. The cap 223 is threaded to the side wall of the inlet 221 for easy replenishment. In use, the end of the drug storage tube 22 with the corresponding sealing element is inserted into the rotating box 21, and the end of the conductor 3 is inserted into the drug storage tube 22 through the rubber sealing element 224 to form a connection with the drug storage tube 22. Furthermore, a vertically installed guide plate 225 is provided on the outer peripheral wall of the drug storage tube 22 to limit and fix the drug storage tube 22 in the rotating box 21, ensuring its position stability in the rotating box 21.

[0047] Furthermore, the liquid storage tank is rotatably mounted on the inner wall of the liquid storage cavity 13 via the mounting shaft 211. In use, the upper end of the rotating box 21 is rotated out from inside the liquid storage cavity 13, the cover plate 213 is opened, and multiple medicine storage tubes 22 are guided and installed at multiple limiting holes 214a via the guide plate 225. During this process, the scale value 226 on the medicine storage tube 22 can be displayed outward from the viewing groove 215, allowing the user to directly observe the amount of medicine inside the medicine storage tube 22, thus facilitating communication. The drug is administered in a quantitative manner through the conductive element 3, and the covering element 214 covers the outer periphery of the drug storage tube 22. The covering element 214 is made of a cushioning flexible material, which can cushion and protect the drug storage tube 22 during use. After the multiple drug storage tubes 22 are placed, the cover plate 213 is rotated to press down the upper ends of the multiple drug storage tubes 22. It is conceivable that the cover plate 213 and the upper end of the rotating box 21 can be fixedly connected by a snap fastener or an interference fit.

[0048] To achieve quantitative drug administration, the conductive element 3 is configured with multiple valves 31. The upper end of each valve 31 is connected to the lower end of the puncture element 33 via a flexible hose 34, creating a flexible connection between the valve 31 and the rotating box 21. The drug storage tube 22 is placed inside the rotating box 21 by being pressed down by the cover plate 213. The puncture element 33 punctures the rubber seal 224, opening the valve 31. The drug solution in the corresponding drug storage tube 22 will then flow through the flexible hose 34 and the first tube 32. The medicine is inserted into the lower end cavity of the atomizing chamber 12. To prevent leakage, the rubber seal 224 is wrapped around the inner and outer sides of the outlet 222 of the medicine storage tube 22. A sealing block 331 is provided on the puncture member 33 and is tightly connected to one end of the outer side of the rubber seal 224, thereby effectively preventing the medicine from seeping out. After being punctured, the rubber seal 224 can bear a certain weight of liquid, so that the rubber seal 224 can be reused after being punctured, thereby reducing the cost of use.

[0049] To make the outer casing 1 smaller and easier to carry, but without affecting the rotation of the rotating box 21 from the first opening 17 of the liquid storage chamber 13, a portion of the first partition 11 corresponding to the rotating box 21 is recessed from one side of the liquid storage chamber 13 toward the atomizing chamber 12 to form a clearance protrusion 35. When the rotating box 21 rotates, the clearance protrusion 35 can avoid the rotating end of the rotating box 21, thereby allowing the rotating box 21 to rotate at a larger angle, which facilitates the removal and placement of the drug storage tube 22.

[0050] Furthermore, in order to keep the rotating box 21 in a stable fixed state inside the liquid storage tank, a magnet 112 is provided on the mounting plate 111 to attract and fix the iron sheet 113 on the side wall of the rotating box 21, so that the rotating box 21 is difficult to rotate out of the rotating box 21 without external force, making it convenient for the user to carry it.

[0051] Meanwhile, in order to ensure the stability of the cover plate 213, when the upper end of the rotating box 21 rotates toward the liquid storage cavity 13, the cover plate 213 first contacts the inclined part of the pressure block 115 and drives the pressure block 115 to slide upward on the guide shaft 114. When the rotating box 21 rotates fully into the liquid storage cavity 13, the multiple springs 116 can apply a stable downward pressure, and a flexible pressure block 213a is provided below the cover plate 213 to improve the stability of fixing the multiple drug storage tubes 22.

[0052] During nebulization therapy, one end of the ultrasonic nebulizer 41 drives the liquid medication inside the nebulization chamber 12 to vibrate, promoting the mixing of the liquid medication and causing it to atomize into fine particles. After atomization, the liquid medication is driven by the turbine fan 441, enters the turbine fan 441 from the guide section 441a, and exits to the outside of the outer shell 1 through the second tube 5 on the other end of the turbine fan 441 for use. In order to improve the comfort of the patient during use, the control device 161 can control the spiral heating tube 442 on the outer peripheral wall of the second tube 5 to heat the second tube 5, thereby effectively improving the comfort of the patient during use, especially for patients with impaired respiratory function, the effect is better.

[0053] The ultrasonic nebulizer 41 is installed in the mounting cavity 6. The mounting cavity 6 is equipped with a gasket 43 for shock absorption. The partition 42 between the mounting cavity 6 and the liquid storage cavity 13 is relatively thin. After it is connected to the ultrasonic nebulizer 41, it can make the atomization of the liquid more efficient.

[0054] In addition, the concentration of the atomized medicine can be controlled by the control valve 142. One end of the control valve 142 is connected to a detachable atomizing hose 143. When not in use, the atomizing hose 143 can be placed in the storage chamber 14, and then the upper end of the storage chamber 14 can be sealed by the cap 141 for easy use and carrying. The atomizing hose 143 is detachable for easy cleaning and replacement.

[0055] The control device 161 is located inside the control chamber 16 and is powered by the battery 46. The control chamber 16 is relatively closed to the liquid storage chamber 13 and the nebulization chamber 12. During use, the nebulization treatment time, concentration and speed of the nebulized medicine can be displayed on the display screen 162 on the outside of the control chamber 16. Guests can adjust the corresponding values ​​through multiple control buttons 163 to increase the convenience of the entire device during use. Sealing doors 45 are provided for the installation chamber 6 and the power supply chamber 15. If necessary, the corresponding sealing doors 45 can be opened to replace and maintain the corresponding structures.

[0056] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and does not limit the patent scope of the present utility model. All equivalent structural transformations made under the inventive concept of the present utility model using the contents of the present utility model specification and drawings, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the patent protection scope of the present utility model.
