Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a swing capped dual aroma inhaler tube. Background Technology

[0002] Commercially available packaging for inhalers typically includes a container and a cap. For example, Thai Utility Model Patent Application No. 1603000872, filed May 23, 2016, entitled "Device for Writing and Inhalation," discloses a technique involving combining an inhaler tube and a pen into a single device for easy portability. It features a hollow cylindrical cap with a closed top and a protrusion allowing the cap to be fitted over the end of the pen. The bottom end of the cap is open, supporting insertion into the top of a container for holding inhaled material. A stick is provided on the side of the cap for attaching it to a shirt pocket. When the user removes the cap from the end of the pen, it can be attached to the closed cap to prevent it from being forgotten or lost during use. However, it has a limitation related to one aspect of the inhaler tube: it can only hold a single aroma.

[0003] Information from Thai Utility Model Patent Application No. 1803000501, filed February 21, 2018, entitled "Twin Tube Inhaler," 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 a 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 upper part of the inhalation tube to increase the tightness of opening and closing, thus preventing leakage. However, there are limitations associated with the nature of this inhalation tube, namely, that it is a dual-tube design for simultaneous inhalation into both nasal passages (nostrils). This may result in the user receiving more inhaled aroma than desired 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 operate simultaneously. This can lead to unnecessary evaporation and waste of aroma in unused tubes. Additionally, the cap detaches completely from the inhalation tube when opened, increasing the risk of cap loss and falling off.

[0004] Information from Thai Utility Model Patent Application No. 1903002186, filed on August 27, 2019, entitled "Improved Inhaler Container Structure," discloses a technology involving a structure for an inhalation compartment having fins to prevent aroma leakage, which cooperate with a rubber ring to prevent the aroma of the inhaler from escaping from the inhalation compartment. The inhalation compartment is installed within an additional housing. However, the inhaler tube has limitations, namely, it can only hold one aroma filler, and there is a problem of the cap completely detaching from the inhaler tube during use and being lost or falling off.

[0005] Information from Thai Utility Model Patent Application No. 2003002552, filed on September 30, 2020, entitled "Inhaler Sleeve," discloses inhaler sleeve technology relating to a container for accommodating inhaler filler and liquid ointment, derived from commercially available dual-purpose inhalers that can be used for both inhalation and ointment application. However, limitations exist, including the inhaler tube only being able to accommodate one type of flavor filler, and the issue of the cap being lost or falling off during use when it completely detaches from the inhaler tube.

[0006] 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 an inhaler cap, including an inhaler cap with grooves for sliding opening or folding. These grooves are used to secure the inhaler cap and inhaler tube retainer to both sides by tenons, ensuring that the inhaler cap and inhaler tube retainer 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 fragrance.

[0007] The swing-cap type dual aroma inhaler tube of this utility model falls within the category of the aforementioned utility models. Upon investigation, it appears that a dual aroma inhaler tube with a swing cap according to this utility model has not been previously developed. Utility Model Content
