[0033] To better understand the purpose, structure, and function of this utility model, the following description, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, provides a more detailed account of an anti-choking continuous medication feeding device of this utility model.
[0034] like Figures 1-8 As shown, this utility model embodiment provides an anti-choking continuous feeding device, including a medicine tube 100 for dissolving medicine, and a feeding spoon 300 installed at one end of the medicine tube 100 to assist the medicine tube 100 in feeding operations. The other end of the medicine tube 100 is equipped with a handle 200 to assist the medicine tube 100 in feeding operations.
[0035] The medicine tube 100 includes a tube body 110 for holding medicine and a connecting tube 120 for connecting one end of the tube body 110. The connecting tube 120 is fastened to the tube body 110 by a threaded connection. A feeding spoon 300 is installed at the other end of the tube body 110. A pusher plate 130 for squeezing and pushing the internal medicine is movably installed inside the tube body 110. The pusher plate 130 is movably installed inside the tube body 110.
[0036] The connecting pipe 120 has a rotating ring 122 installed inside to drive the internal liquid pusher plate 130 to move. One end of the rotating ring 122 is provided with a drive screw 124 for pushing the liquid pusher plate 130 to move. The drive screw 124 is threadedly connected to the liquid pusher plate 130. Both sides of the drive screw 124 are provided with limiting rods 125 for limiting the installation of the liquid pusher plate 130. The limiting rods 125 are installed through the liquid pusher plate 130.
[0037] The end of the handle 200 is provided with an insertion head 210 for driving the rotating ring 122 to rotate. The insertion head 210 is connected to an insertion slot 123 on one side of the rotating ring 122. One end of the insertion head 210 is connected to the output end of the drive device. The upper end of the handle 200 is provided with a control button 230 for starting the drive device. The size of the insertion head 210 and the insertion slot 123 are matched.
[0038] One end of the handle 200 is fitted with a connecting ring 220 for connecting the handle 200 and the medicine tube 100. The connecting ring 220 is threaded onto the end of the handle 200. The outside of the connecting tube 120 is provided with a threaded ring 121 for connecting the handle 200 and the connecting tube 120. The threaded ring 121 matches the thread of the connecting ring 220.
[0039] When administering medication to a patient using the medication feeding device, the medication is placed inside the medication tube 100. When medication needs to be administered, the insertion head 210 is inserted into the insertion slot 123 to rotate the rotating ring 122. This, in turn, drives the push plate 130 via the drive screw 124, causing the internal medication liquid to leak out from one end for administration. This allows for the administration of the dissolved medication, preventing solid medication from choking the patient. Furthermore, the medication tube 100 and handle 200 are movably installed and can be disassembled and reassembled at will, facilitating the replacement of the front-end medication tube 100. This makes the device more flexible in use and allows for the replacement of medications according to different medications. The device is driven by a drive motor, making it easy to control the amount of medication dispensed.
[0040] The medicine tube 100 can be made into a transparent tube, and the upper end can be marked with graduation lines to facilitate control of the dosage.
[0041] The feeding spoon 300 includes a spoon body 310 for holding medicine and a discharge hole 320 on one side for discharging medicine. The discharge hole 320 is located in the middle of the plate on one side of the spoon body 310. When the liquid pusher plate 130 inside the medicine tube 100 is pushed to one side for squeezing, the discharge hole 320 can discharge the medicine. When squeezing stops, the elastic discharge hole 320 closes. The van der Waals forces between the medicine water molecules will form a certain viscosity to prevent leakage.
[0042] The disc body and the tube body 110 are connected by threads, and different feeding spoons 300 can be replaced according to the different needs of the patient. The threaded feeding spoon 300 can be replaced with a delivery tube for feeding, making it more flexible to use.
[0043] The outer side of the push plate 130 is covered with a silicone ring to assist the sealing of the disc. The outer circumference of the silicone ring is fitted to the tube 110, so that the push plate 130 fits the inner cavity of the tube 110 better and the push effect is better.
[0044] The upper end of the medicine tube 100 is provided with a quantitative filling section 500 for replenishing the liquid inside the medicine tube 100. A grinding section 400 for grinding the medicine is provided on one side of the quantitative filling section 500. The lower ends of the grinding section 400 and the quantitative filling section 500 are threaded into the threaded groove opened at the upper end of the medicine tube 100. The grinding section 400 can be used to grind the tablets, which facilitates the grinding and dissolution of the tablets. The quantitative filling section 500 on one side can add liquid to the inside of the medicine tube 100, which facilitates the processing of the medicine inside.
[0045] The grinding unit 400 includes a placement cavity 410 for placing tablets for grinding and a grinding head 420 movably installed inside the placement cavity 410 for grinding granular drugs. The grinding head 420 fits the shape of the lower end of the placement cavity 410. A rotating head 430 is provided at the upper end of the grinding head 420 to drive the grinding head 420 to rotate and grind. The lower end of the rotating head 430 is threadedly connected to the inner side of the upper end of the placement cavity 410. When it is necessary to grind tablets, the tablets can be placed inside the placement cavity 410, and then the lower grinding head 420 is rotated to grind the tablets into small pieces, thereby compressing and grinding the tablets to reduce the size of the tablet particles and facilitate dissolving the tablets.
[0046] The quantitative filling unit 500 includes a storage tank 510 for storage and a lifting rod 520 movably installed in the middle of the storage tank 510. The lifting rod 520 is installed at the lower end of a sealing cover 530 arranged at the upper end. A water-separating plate 560 for separating the liquid is fixedly installed at the lower end of the lifting rod 520. The water-separating plate 560 is movably installed at the lower end of the inner cavity of the storage tank 510. Liquid inlets 550 for leakage are evenly arranged at the upper end of the water-separating plate 560. A lifting spring 540 for driving the lifting rod 520 to rebound is installed around the lower end of the lifting rod 520. The lower end of spring 540 is movably mounted on the upper end of the frame of inlet 550. The upper end of spring 540 is fixedly connected to lifting rod 520. Lifting rod 520 is supported and fixed by the frame set inside the storage tank 510. When it is necessary to replenish the liquid inside the medicine tube 100, liquid is added to the inside through the storage tank 510. By pressing down lifting rod 520, the water separator 560 is pushed down, exposing inlet 550, so that liquid can be added to the tube 110 set at the lower end. After releasing, lifting rod 520 rebounds, thereby blocking inlet 550 and stopping liquid addition. The operation is convenient.
[0047] The side of the liquid storage tank 510 is provided with an elastic part 512 for easy squeezing of liquid inlet. The elastic part 512 may be made of silicone material. The upper end of the liquid storage tank 510 is provided with a liquid inlet 511 for liquid inlet for rinsing. The liquid inlet 511 is connected to the pump body through a liquid supply pipe. When adding liquid, liquid can be added by pressing down the sealing cap 530. The elastic part 512 is provided to facilitate the pressing down liquid inlet operation of the liquid storage tank 510, making the operation convenient.
[0048] The working principle of an anti-choking continuous medication feeding device is as follows: When using the medication feeding device to feed a patient, the medication is placed inside the medication tube 100. When medication needs to be fed, the insertion head 210 is inserted into the insertion slot 123 to drive the rotating ring 122 to rotate. This, in turn, drives the push plate 130 to move via the drive screw 124, pushing the internal liquid medication to leak out from one end for feeding. This allows the melted medication to be fed down, preventing solid medication from choking the patient. Furthermore, the medication tube 100 and the handle 200 are movably installed and can be disassembled and assembled at will, making it convenient to replace the front-end medication tube 100. This makes the device more flexible in use and can be changed according to different medications. It is driven by a drive motor, which facilitates control of the medication dispensing amount.
[0049] It is understood that this utility model has been described through some embodiments, and those skilled in the art will recognize that various changes or equivalent substitutions can be made to these features and embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of this utility model. Furthermore, under the teachings of this utility model, these features and embodiments can be modified to adapt to specific situations and materials without departing from the spirit and scope of this utility model. Therefore, this utility model is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed herein, and all embodiments falling within the scope of the claims of this application are within the protection scope of this utility model.
