Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a dual-fragrance herbal inhaler bottle. Background Technology
[0002] Commercially available packaging for inhalers typically includes an inhaler container and a cap. Information was found in Thai Utility Model Patent Application No. 1803000501, filed February 21, 2018, entitled "Twin Tube Inhaler." This application discloses technology related to inhalation tubes, particularly a dual-tube design with two inhalation tubes for simultaneous inhalation into both sides of the nose. This allows for quick and convenient use and features a bottom base with a compartment for containing liquid balm for application and massage to the desired area. The components are attached together by linear locking dowels. The base containing the liquid balm is threaded to the top of the inhaler tube to increase the tightness of opening and closing, thus preventing leakage of the liquid balm. However, there are limitations associated with the nature of this inhaler tube, namely, that it is a dual-tube design for simultaneous inhalation into both nasal passages (nostrils). This could result in the user receiving more aroma than they need with each inhalation. Furthermore, the aroma release channels on both inhalation tubes open and close via the same cap, meaning that even if the user chooses to inhale from only one tube, these channels will be active simultaneously. This can lead to unnecessary evaporation and waste of aroma in unused tubes. Additionally, the cap is prone to loss or falling off because it completely detaches from the inhalation tube when opened.
[0003] Information was found in Thai Utility Model Patent Application No. 2103003709, filed on December 20, 2021, entitled "Swing-cap Inhaler Stick". This application discloses technology related to inhaler caps, including inhaler caps with grooves for sliding opening or folding. These grooves are used to secure the inhaler cap to both sides of the inhaler tube holder by pins, ensuring that the inhaler cap and inhaler tube holder do not separate from each other. This solves the problem of inhaler caps being lost or falling off. Furthermore, the top of the inhaler cap has two holes for attaching an inhaler lanyard to a bag or necklace for easy carrying. A limitation related to the nature of this inhaler tube was discovered: it can only hold one flavor.
[0004] Information was found in Thai Utility Model Patent Application No. 2203001280, filed on May 26, 2022, entitled "Portable Inhaler." This application discloses technology related to an inhaler kit, featuring a base resembling a thick plate. The front region of the base houses a built-in magnet that generates magnetic force on a mounting bracket, which also has magnets located in the rear region. The mounting bracket is attached to the case by sliding it into a slide rail on the mounting bracket. Limitations related to the filling material of the disc-shaped inhaler were discovered; it is suitable for perfume-type scented agents or essential oils but not for crushed or ground aromatic herbs.
