Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical devices, specifically to a kit for packaging pills for acupoint application. Background Technology

[0002] Acupoint application is a traditional Chinese medicine external treatment method. Specific Chinese medicines are made into plasters, patches, or pastes and applied to acupoints on the body. Through the dual effects of drug penetration and acupoint stimulation, it regulates qi and blood, balances yin and yang, and achieves the purpose of preventing or treating diseases. It is widely used in respiratory system, digestive system, painful diseases, and sub-health conditioning.

[0003] The common methods for making and using acupoint patches are as follows: (1) Mix the Chinese medicine powder and water in a certain proportion and stir evenly to form a paste; (2) Make small pills from the paste by hand; (3) Count the pills manually and pack them into bags and refrigerate them in the refrigerator for later use; (4) When using, fix the pills on the tape and stick them to the acupoint for application.

[0004] The production process of the patches still largely relies on manual operation, especially the manual rolling of the pills, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and results in significant differences in shape and weight, thus affecting standardized treatment and efficacy. The pills are difficult to package by machine due to their rough and sticky surface, and manual counting and packaging is inefficient, prone to errors, and difficult to clean as they are sticky. After being packaged into bags, the pills are easily squeezed and deformed, and clump together, making them inconvenient to carry when going out. The process of using the patches is complicated, requiring the removal of the medicine, fixing, and sticking, and is even more time-consuming and labor-intensive when applying patches to multiple acupoints.

[0042] In the description of the embodiments of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "upper," "lower," "front," "rear," "left," "right," "vertical," "horizontal," "top," "bottom," "inner," "outer," "clockwise," and "counterclockwise," etc., indicating the orientation or positional relationship, are based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on the utility model. The accompanying drawings are schematic diagrams or conceptual diagrams, and the relationships between the thickness and width of each part, as well as the proportional relationships between each part, etc., are not entirely consistent with their actual values.

[0043] Figure 1 The diagram shows a structural schematic of a kit for dispensing pills for acupoint application according to an embodiment of the present invention, which includes a medicine packaging plate 100, a protective film 200, a support plate 300, a base 400, and a sealing layer 500.

[0044] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the medicine packaging plate 100 is provided with several blister packs 110 arranged in an array. Each blister pack 110 serves as a container for holding the acupoint patch pills and also as a mold for forming the medicinal paste during the pill-making process. After filling the blister pack 110 with medicinal paste, the paste at its opening is smoothed out, thus forming several pills of the same shape and size in each blister pack 110 of the medicine packaging plate 100. In this embodiment, the medicine packaging plate 100 is provided with a total of 3*4 blister packs 110. The inner space of each blister pack 110 is mainly a cylindrical structure with a base diameter of 2cm and a height of 0.5cm. In practical applications, the distribution and number of blister packs 110 on the medicine packaging plate 100, as well as the size of their inner spaces, can be set according to actual needs and are not limited here.

[0045] The protective film 200 is initially affixed to the surface of the drug packaging board 100, such as Figure 4 As shown, the protective film 200 has openings 210 that match the position and size of the blister pack 110, so that when the protective film 200 is adhered to the surface of the pharmaceutical packaging board 100, the opening of the blister pack 110 can still communicate with the outside. In this embodiment, the edge of the protective film 200 is also provided with an extension 220. When the protective film 200 is adhered to the surface of the pharmaceutical packaging board 100, the extension 220 extends beyond the surface area of ​​the pharmaceutical packaging board 100, so that the protective film 200 can be easily peeled off from the surface of the pharmaceutical packaging board 100 through the extension 220.

[0046] Support plate 300 is a load-bearing device for pharmaceutical packaging plate 100, such as Figure 5As shown, the support plate 300 is provided with a groove 310 that matches the position and outer contour of the blister pack 110, so that the medicine packaging plate 100 can be placed on the support plate 300. At this time, the blister pack 110 is positioned in the groove 310, so that the contact surface between the medicine packaging plate 100 and the support plate 300 can fit together, and the support plate 300 can effectively support the medicine packaging plate 100.

[0047] The base 400 is used to place the support plate 300, such as Figure 6 As shown, the base 400 is provided with a positioning groove 410 that mates with the support plate 300, so that the support plate 300 can be stably placed on the base 400. In this embodiment, the bottom of the positioning groove 410 is provided with a through hole 420, which is suitable for driving the support plate 300 out of the positioning groove 410 through the through hole 420. As mentioned above, in practical applications, the distribution and number of blister packs 110 on the pharmaceutical packaging plate 100, as well as the shape and size of their internal spaces, can be set according to actual needs. For example, when multiple specifications of pharmaceutical packaging plates 100 are set for backup, corresponding support plates 300 that mate with each specification of pharmaceutical packaging plate 100 also need to be set. The through hole 420 facilitates the replacement of the support plate 300. In some other embodiments, a notch is provided at the opening edge of the groove 310, usually with notches on both sides, so as to facilitate grasping both sides of the support plate 300 and removing it from the positioning groove 410.

[0048] The sealing layer 500 is used to connect with the pharmaceutical packaging plate 100 to seal the opening of the blister pack 110. Specifically, after the pills inside the blister pack 110 are manufactured, the sealing layer 500 is covered and adhered to the surface of the pharmaceutical packaging plate 100, thereby sealing the pills within the blister pack 110. The sealing layer 500 can be made of aluminum-plastic composite film or polymer film commonly used for sealing blister packs. An adhesive layer is provided on the film outside the opening of the blister pack 110, making it suitable for adhering the aforementioned aluminum-plastic composite film or polymer film to the surface of the pharmaceutical packaging plate 100. In actual products, this type of sealing layer 500 is usually provided together with release paper after being bonded. In some embodiments, the sealing layer 500 uses a cover structure with snap-fit, which engages the edge of the pharmaceutical packaging plate 100 within the snap-fit ​​of the cover structure. In this embodiment, the sealing layer 500 uses existing adhesive tape. This adhesive tape is used in conjunction with the pills during acupoint application to fix the pills at the acupoint. When acupoint application is needed, the corresponding blister pack 110 can be cut directly from the medicine packaging plate 100, and then the adhesive tape can be peeled off. The pills from the blister pack 110 can then be pulled out with the adhesive tape, resulting in a ready-to-use acupoint patch that can be adhered to the desired acupoint. In another embodiment, after covering the medicine packaging plate 100 with the adhesive tape, slits are cut between the blister packs 110 using a knife, allowing the adhesive tape to be peeled off directly when acupoint application is needed.

[0049] In this embodiment, the process for preparing and packaging acupoint patches is as follows:

[0050] 1. Place the support plate 300 into the positioning groove 410 of the base 400, and place the medicine packaging blister 100 on the support plate 300. At this time, the blister pack 110 is set in the corresponding groove 310. (Refer to...) Figure 7 .

[0051] 2. Fill the prepared medicated mud into the blister pack 110, so that the medicated mud is slightly higher than the opening of the blister pack 110. You can use an existing spoon, piping bag or syringe to fill the medicated mud, or the above tools or similar devices can be provided in the kit product.

[0052] 3. Use a scraper to smooth the medicated paste at the opening of the blister pack 110, so that the medicated paste filling the blister pack 110 is shaped into the spatial shape inside the blister pack 110, that is, use the blister pack 110 as a mold for shaping the medicated paste. Existing plastic scraper tools or plate-shaped objects with a certain degree of hardness can be used as scrapers, or a scraper adapted to the size of the support plate 300 can be configured in the kit product, such as the width of the scraper being the same as the width of the support plate 300.

[0053] 4. Remove the medicine packaging blister 100 from the support plate 300 and place it for a predetermined time to allow some of the moisture in the medicine paste inside the blister pack 110 to evaporate, thereby forming a pill with a certain degree of toughness. Preferably, it can be placed in an environment with airflow or inside a box to shorten the placement time. Due to the difference between the pill material and the blister pack 110 material, the stress between the two is mismatched, and the formed pill is easy to detach from the blister pack 110.

[0054] 5. Peel the protective film 200 off the surface of the medicine packaging blister pack 100, as per [reference]. Figure 8 At this time, the surface of the medicine packaging plate 100 is clean and flat in the area outside the opening of the blister pack 110.

[0055] 6. Adhere the sealing layer 500 to the surface of the medicine packaging board 100, thus completing the process of acupoint patch application, pill making, and packaging.

[0056] It should be noted that in this embodiment, adhesive tape is used as the sealing layer 500. After removing the medicine packaging plate 100 from the support plate 300 in step 4 above, there is no need to wait for a predetermined time to evaporate the moisture in the medicine mud. The protective film 200 can be directly peeled off from the surface of the medicine packaging plate 100, and the adhesive tape can be pasted on the surface of the medicine packaging plate 100. This is because the pill itself needs to be bonded to the adhesive tape when in use. At this time, when the adhesive tape comes into contact with the medicine mud on the surface of the blister 110 opening, the medicine mud can penetrate into the surface of the adhesive tape to a certain extent. At the same time, the adhesive tape itself has a certain degree of breathability, and the moisture in the medicine mud can evaporate through the adhesive tape, which gradually makes the formed pill and the adhesive tape have a relatively stronger adhesion.

[0057] In this embodiment, a receiving groove 430 is also provided on the base 400. The receiving groove 430 is located on one side of the positioning groove 410. When the medicated mud at the opening of the blister pack 110 is leveled with a scraper, the medicated mud accumulated on the scraper can be scraped into the receiving groove 430. The receiving groove 430 is used to collect the medicated mud scraped off from the medicine packaging plate 100 (at this time, the surface is covered with a protective film 200). The medicated mud in the receiving groove 430 can be collected and used.

[0058] The preferred embodiments of this utility model have been described in detail above. It should be understood that those skilled in the art can make numerous modifications and variations based on the concept of this utility model without creative effort.
