[0026] See Figures 1 to 4An ampoule opener includes a handle 100, a connector 200, and a grinding wheel 300. One end of the handle 100 has a first side plate 101 and a second side plate 102 arranged parallel to each other. The first side plate 101 has a first through hole 103, and the second side plate 102 has a threaded hole 104. The first through hole 103 and the threaded hole 104 are located on the same straight line. A wheel 110 is rotatably mounted on the outer side wall of the second side plate 102. The connector 200 includes a smooth rod 201 and a threaded rod 202 connected to each other. One end of the smooth rod 201 is connected to a mounting cap 203. The smooth rod 201 is detachably disposed in the first through hole 103, and the threaded rod 202 is connected to the threaded hole 104. The grinding wheel 300 is disposed between the first side plate 101 and the second side plate 102, and the grinding wheel 300 has a second through hole 301 through which the smooth rod 201 can pass.

[0027] In the above-described ampoule opener installation, the grinding wheel 300 is first placed between the first side plate 101 and the second side plate 102, so that the second through hole 301 is aligned with the first through hole 103. Then, one end of the smooth rod 201 is passed through the first through hole 103 and the second through hole 301 in sequence. Finally, the operator holds the handle 100 with one hand and uses the thumb and forefinger of the other hand to rotate the mounting cap 203, so that the threaded rod 202 and the threaded hole 104 can be engaged. After the threaded rod 202 and the threaded hole 104 are tightened to a certain depth, there is still a large gap between the grinding wheel 300 and the first side plate 101 and the second side plate 102. If the operator continues to rotate the mounting cap 203 alone, it is difficult to apply enough force to rotate the mounting cap 203, thus making it difficult to further tighten the threaded rod 202 into the threaded hole 104. Therefore, the operator continues to hold the handle 100 with one hand, while the index finger of the other hand presses against the wheel 110, and the thumb presses against the mounting cap 203. As the index finger rotates the wheel 110, the thumb can also better apply force to rotate the mounting cap 203, thus facilitating the operator's application of force using the wheel 110 to ensure the threaded rod 202 continues to engage with the threaded hole 104. Ultimately, this allows the grinding wheel 300 to be installed or clamped between the first side plate 101 and the second side plate 102 with a small gap. When it is necessary to disassemble the grinding wheel 300, simply reverse the above steps to quickly remove the grinding wheel 300 from the handle 100, making it convenient for the operator to replace the grinding wheel 300. With this structure, the overall design is simple, and by using the wheel 110 to assist the operator in rotating the mounting cap 203, the connector 200 can be quickly installed or removed without the need for screwdrivers or other tools, greatly improving the ease of installation and removal of the grinding wheel 300.

[0028] Understandably, during use, the operator holds the handle 100 and drives the grinding wheel 300 to rotate around the groove on the neck of the ampoule, creating scratches on the groove. Then, with the help of tools or hand force, the neck is broken off, thus opening the ampoule.

[0029] See Figures 1 to 4 Furthermore, the outer side wall of the second side plate 102 is provided with a mounting groove 105, and a sleeve 106 is provided at the bottom of the mounting groove 105. The outer peripheral wall of the sleeve 106 is provided with an annular groove 107 that communicates with the mounting groove 105. One end of the threaded hole 104 passes through the sleeve 106. The wheel 110 is provided with a locking block that slides with the annular groove 107. By using the locking block to cooperate with the annular groove 107, the wheel 110 is prevented from disengaging from the mounting groove 105, which is beneficial for the subsequent use of the wheel 110 to provide a place for the operator to apply force.

[0030] See Figures 1 to 4 Furthermore, the wheel 110 includes a mounting cover 111 with a first recessed groove. The locking block includes an arc-shaped plate 112, one end of which is connected to the bottom of the first recessed groove, and the other end of which is connected to a side extension block 113. The side extension block 113 engages with the annular groove 107. Specifically, during installation, the operator applies force to press the mounting cover 111 into the mounting groove 105, causing the side extension block 113 to engage with the annular groove 107, thereby preventing the wheel 110 from disengaging from the mounting groove 105 and allowing the side extension block 113 to slide within the annular groove 107, thus completing the rotational installation of the wheel 110 relative to the second side plate 102. It is understood that the mounting groove 105 is a cylindrical groove adapted to the arc-shaped plate 112, allowing the arc-shaped plate 112 to rotate more effectively within the cylindrical groove.

[0031] See Figure 4 Furthermore, multiple locking blocks are provided, circumferentially distributed on the mounting cover 111. The cooperation between these multiple locking blocks and the annular groove 107 improves the rotational installation effect between the wheel 110 and the second side plate 102. It is understood that the multiple locking blocks and the mounting cover 111 are integrally injection molded, which not only enhances the structural strength of the wheel 110, preventing the locking blocks from detaching from the mounting cover 111, but also allows the locking blocks to have a certain degree of elastic deformation capability.

[0032] See Figures 1 to 4 Furthermore, the mounting cover 111 is provided with a third through hole 114, which is connected to the first recess. The axis of the third through hole 114 is collinear with the axis of the sleeve 106, so that one end of the threaded rod 202 can pass through the third through hole 114, which helps to avoid the mounting cover 111 from affecting the installation of the threaded rod 202.

[0033] See Figures 1 to 4 Furthermore, the first side plate 101 has a second recessed groove that communicates with the first through hole 103. The inner end face of the mounting cap 203 abuts against the bottom wall of the second recessed groove, so that the mounting cap 203 can be placed inside the second recessed groove, and the outer side of the mounting cap 203 can be flush with the side wall of the first side plate 101, which improves the aesthetics of the installation of the connector 200.

[0034] See Figures 1 to 3 Furthermore, the handle 100, the first side plate 101, and the second side plate 102 are integrally formed. Specifically, the handle 100, the first side plate 101, and the second side plate 102 are integrally injection molded, which not only helps to prevent the first side plate 101 and the second side plate 102 from detaching from the handle 100 and improves the connection strength of the three, but also allows the first side plate 101 and the second side plate 102 to have a certain elastic deformation capacity. This facilitates the first side plate 101 and the second side plate 102 to approach each other on the grinding wheel 300 during the process of tightening the threaded rod 202 into the threaded hole 104, thereby reducing the installation gap of the grinding wheel 300.

[0035] See Figures 1 to 3 Furthermore, the cross-section of the handle 100 gradually increases from top to bottom, and the outer contour of the handle 100 includes at least two opposing planes, with an arc surface connecting adjacent planes, thereby facilitating the operator to better grip the handle 100 for operation.

[0036] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0037] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, those skilled in the art will understand that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the claims and their equivalents.
