Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of medical device technology, specifically relating to a nasal delivery device. Background Technology

[0002] Nasal irrigation is a safe and effective local treatment method suitable for various nasal and upper respiratory tract diseases. It uses a nebulizer to spray medication directly onto the lesion site, featuring high local concentration, strong targeting, rapid efficacy, and reduced drug dosage. Most existing nebulizers include a delivery component and a nozzle. The delivery component acts on the liquid medication, allowing the liquid to be sprayed out quickly and evenly from the nozzle, thus rinsing the nasal cavity. However, due to the large number of patients in hospitals, nasal irrigation requires rinsing both nostrils sequentially, which is time-consuming.

[0003] For example, patent document CN213251147U discloses a nasal irrigation applicator, including a syringe.

[0023] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.

[0024] like Figures 1-5 As shown, the nasal delivery device of this embodiment includes a drug delivery assembly for dispensing medication. The drug delivery assembly has a dispensing nozzle 4. The assembly includes a cartridge 1 and a piston rod 2. The dispensing nozzle 4 is located at one end of the cartridge 1, and the piston rod 2 is located at the other end of the cartridge 1. The piston rod 2 is slidable within the cartridge 1, so that by pushing the piston rod 2, the medication is expelled from the dispensing nozzle 4. A three-way connector 5 is connected to the dispensing nozzle 4. One port of the three-way connector 5 is connected to the dispensing nozzle 4, and its other port is connected to two dispensing tubes 6. The nasal delivery device also includes two spray nozzles 9 for aerosol medication delivery. Two spray nozzles 9 are provided, each connected to one of the two dispensing tubes 6. The spray nozzle 9 is connected to the end of the dispensing tube 6 away from the three-way connector 5. The spray nozzle 9 is L-shaped, and one end of the spray nozzle 9 is tapered to facilitate insertion of the spray nozzle 9 into the patient's nostril for medication irrigation.

[0025] To facilitate the injection of rinsing solution into the cartridge 1, a filling port 12 is provided on the side of the cartridge 1. The filling port 12 is close to the end of the dispensing nozzle 4. A one-way valve 3 is provided on the filling port 12. The one-way valve 3 is used to connect to the medicine bottle. By setting the one-way valve 3, the medicine in the medicine bottle can enter the cartridge 1 under negative pressure. When the piston rod 2 is pushed, the medicine cannot flow back from the one-way valve 3, but flows out from the dispensing nozzle 4.

[0026] Specifically, the one-way valve 3 includes a valve housing 31, a bottom cover 34, a spring 33, and a valve ball 32. The valve housing 31 has openings at both the top and bottom. The spring 33 and the valve ball 32 are located inside the valve housing 31. The bottom cover 34 is connected to the lower opening of the valve housing 31. The two ends of the spring 33 are connected to the valve ball 32 and the bottom cover 34, respectively. The valve ball 32 seals the upper opening of the valve housing 31. A through hole communicating with the inside of the valve housing 31 is opened in the middle of the bottom cover 34. When the spring 33 is compressed, the valve ball 32 moves downward, and there is a gap between the valve housing 31 and the valve ball 32 for liquid to pass through. For easy connection, the upper end of the valve housing 31 may be provided with threads for docking and fixing with a medicine bottle.

[0027] In this embodiment, the direction of the nozzle 9 is adjustable to adapt to the orientation of the patient's nostrils. The front end of the drug delivery assembly is provided with a rotating frame 7, which is connected to the front end of the cartridge 1. The dispensing tube 6 is provided on the rotating frame 7. One end of the rotating frame 7 is hinged to the dispensing tube 6. The end of the rotating frame 7 is provided with a hinge hole 71. The side of the drug delivery assembly is provided with a screw hole 13. The hinge hole 71 coincides with the screw hole 13. A fastening screw 14 passing through the hinge hole 71 is connected to the screw hole 13. The fastening screw 14 has a smooth section that connects to the hinge hole 71. When the fastening screw 14 is not fully tightened, the rotating frame 7 can rotate relative to the drug delivery assembly. After the fastening screw 14 is tightened, the rotating frame 7 and the drug delivery assembly are fixed relative to each other. The nozzle 9 is fixed on the rotating frame 7 and located at the end away from the drug delivery assembly. The nozzle 9 is connected to the drug delivery tube 6. By adjusting the rotating frame 7, the angle between the nozzle 9 and the drug cartridge 1 can be adjusted, which facilitates the injection of the drug liquid and also facilitates the nozzle 9 to spray the drug into the nasal cavity.

[0028] In addition, the rotating frame 7 is provided with two parallel channels 8, through which the dispensing tube 6 passes. A speed regulating hole 10 is provided at the upper middle part of the channel 8. The speed regulating hole 10 is opened along the length of the channel 8 and is connected to the channel 8. A speed regulating wheel 11 is provided inside the speed regulating hole 10. Horizontal side grooves 16 are provided on the two side walls of the speed regulating hole 10. Rollers 15 are provided on both sides of the speed regulating wheel 11. The rollers 15 are rotatably located in the side grooves 16. The bottom surface of the channel 8 is an inclined surface. The dispensing tube 6 is squeezed between the speed regulating wheel 11 and the bottom surface of the channel 8. By rolling the speed regulating wheel 11, the degree of deformation of the dispensing tube 6 is changed. In this way, the speed of the liquid spray can be adjusted according to the different tolerances of the patient's two nasal cavities to stimulation, making nasal irrigation more comfortable.

[0029] In nasal drug administration, the speed regulating wheel 11 is rolled to close the dispensing tube 6. Then, the bottle of rinsing solution is connected to the one-way valve 3. The piston rod 2 is then pulled back to create a negative pressure inside the cartridge 1. This causes the solution in the bottle to press down on the valve bead 32 and spring 33, allowing the solution to enter the cartridge 1. The speed regulating wheel 11 is then rolled to adjust the speed of the solution spray. Next, the angle of the rotating frame 7 is adjusted as needed, and the nozzle 9 is inserted into the patient's nostril. The piston rod 2 is pushed to expel the solution, which flows from the dispensing nozzle 4 through the three-way connector 5 into the dispensing tube 6. Finally, the solution is sprayed from the nozzle 9 to rinse the patient's nasal cavity. The rinsing process allows for simultaneous administration of medication to both nostrils, which helps improve rinsing efficiency.

[0030] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
