Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of nasal irrigation technology, and specifically relates to a nasal irrigator. Background Technology

[0002] Nasal irrigation is an important method for postoperative recovery after nasal surgery. It typically involves using a nasal irrigator to alternately inject 37°C saline solution or a specially formulated nasal wash into one nostril to clean the nasal cavity. However, this method has certain drawbacks in practice. Due to the strong adhesion of blood clots and the viscous nature of secretions on the nasal wound surface, the irrigation solution is often discharged before it has been sufficiently diluted and broken down, resulting in inefficient use of the solution and poor irrigation effect. After irrigation, large pieces of gel-like secretions and crusts may still remain in the nasal cavity, affecting the patient's recovery and comfort.

[0003] To address the aforementioned issues, a nasal irrigator has been invented. This device creates a continuous cluster of bubbles within the nasal cavity, utilizing the dynamic characteristics of the bubbles' movement and dissipation to generate a motion similar to the boiling and churning of water. This enhances the utilization value and rinsing effect of the irrigating solution. This innovative technology is expected to overcome the shortcomings of existing nasal irrigation methods, providing patients with a more effective and comfortable nasal irrigation experience.

[0044] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand this utility model, the present utility model will now be further described in conjunction with specific embodiments.

[0045] Example 1:

[0046] like Figures 1-4 As shown, this utility model provides a nasal irrigator, comprising:

[0047] Bottle 1;

[0048] Bottle cap 2; Bottle cap 2 is detachably connected to bottle body 1;

[0049] An integrated platform 20 is located on the upper surface of the bottle cap 2 and is connected to the bottle cap 2. A water inlet pipe 3 is inserted into the bottom of the integrated platform 20.

[0050] The nozzle diverting conduit 4 has one end connected to the integrated platform 20 and the other end connected to the nozzle 40. The nozzle diverting conduit 4 is also connected to the water supply pipe 3.

[0051] Air intake pipe 5 is connected to integrated platform 20. One end of air intake pipe 5 is connected to air supply unit, which is used to supply air to air intake pipe 5.

[0052] Exhaust pipe 50 is connected to integrated platform 20 and nozzle steering guide 4 and water supply pipe 3.

[0053] The adjustment unit is used to adjust the opening and closing of the exhaust pipe 50.

[0054] The gas supply unit includes:

[0055] Connecting pipe 6, which is connected to air intake pipe 5;

[0056] Press the airbag 61. One-way valves 610 are connected to both ends of the airbag 61. The end of the connecting pipe 6 away from the air inlet pipe 5 is connected to one of the one-way valves 610.

[0057] Two one-way valves 610 are arranged at equal intervals.

[0058] The adjustment unit includes:

[0059] Button 7, button 7, the axis of button 7 coincides with the axis of exhaust pipe 50, button 7 is in contact with the integrated platform 20,

[0060] Locking nut 70 is threadedly connected to integrated platform 20. Locking nut 70 is sleeved with button 7, and button 7 is in contact with one side wall inside locking nut 70.

[0061] Button 7 is a rubber button, and the outer wall of the locking nut 70 has anti-slip texture.

[0062] The main pipe 21 is located in the middle of the integrated platform 20. The main pipe 21 is connected to the nozzle diverting guide 4, inserted into the water supply pipe 3, and connected to the exhaust pipe 50.

[0063] The outer wall of bottle 1 is marked with graduation lines, and bottle 1 is a transparent bottle.

[0064] The bottle body 1 is fitted with a sealing gasket 8, the bottle cap 2 is fitted with the sealing gasket 8, and the bottle cap 2 is threadedly connected to the bottle body 1.

[0065] Working principle:

[0066] During the preparation stage, the user first adds an appropriate amount of rinsing liquid to the bottle 1. The outer wall of the bottle 1 is equipped with scale lines to facilitate the user to control the amount of rinsing liquid added. Then, the cap 2 is tightened to ensure the seal between the bottle 1 and the cap 2. The design of the sealing gasket 8 enhances the sealing performance between the bottle 1 and the cap 2.

[0067] When operating the air supply unit, the user holds the press airbag 61 with one hand, holds the bottle body 1 with four fingers of the other hand, and places the thumb on the button 7. When the press airbag 61 is pressed, the air inside the press airbag 61 enters the air inlet pipe 5 through the connecting pipe 6, and then enters the inside of the bottle body 1.

[0068] When the user presses button 7, the exhaust pipe 50 is blocked on one side of button 7, making the air pressure inside bottle 1 higher than the external atmospheric pressure. Under the action of the pressure difference, the rinsing fluid passes through the water inlet pipe 3, the nozzle diverting guide 4, and the nozzle 40, and is finally sprayed into the nasal cavity. When the nasal cavity is full of rinsing fluid, button 7 is released, and the airbag 61 is pressed again. The air then travels along the nozzle diverting guide 4 and the nozzle 40, finally entering the nasal cavity. The nozzle 40 and the nasal cavity form a sealed space, preventing the nasal fluid from leaking out while continuously injecting air into the nasal cavity, causing it to continuously accumulate. In the bubble cluster, during the movement and dissipation of the bubbles, the liquid, under the action of the unique dynamic characteristics of the bubbles, generates a movement similar to boiling and churning water. The force generated by this movement, through the splashing and collision of the rinsing liquid, acts on different directions in the nasal cavity, accelerating the decomposition and dilution of nasal crusts until the crusts fall off. It has the effect of efficiently and thoroughly cleaning the nasal cavity, thereby achieving the goal of rapid recovery for patients. This process not only speeds up the efficiency of nasal irrigation but, more importantly, accelerates the recovery of patients, effectively shortens the recovery period, and improves the practicality of this utility model.

[0069] The locking nut 70 can be rotated easily, making it convenient for users to quickly disassemble the button 7. It can effectively clean the inside of the integrated platform 20 and the button 4, preventing the accumulation of dirt and bacteria, thereby ensuring the hygiene and safety of the product. At the same time, the locking nut 70 can effectively make the button 7 fit with the exhaust pipe 50, further improving the airtightness of this utility model.

[0070] After cleaning, the user can reinstall button 7 on the exhaust pipe 50 and fix its position by tightening nut 70. This ensures that button 7 works stably during the rinsing process and will not affect the performance due to loosening.

[0071] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and do not limit the patent scope of the present utility model. All equivalent changes and modifications made within the scope of the present utility model shall still fall within the scope of the present utility model.
