Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical device technology, specifically a medication feeder for the care of mental patients. Background Technology

[0002] In the care of psychiatric patients, medication is a crucial component. However, due to the unique characteristics of psychiatric patients, such as emotional instability, resistance to medication, difficulty swallowing, and low cooperation, traditional methods of administering medication often face numerous challenges. Currently, most existing medication administerers are simple tools such as straws, syringes, tongs, and spoons, with limited functionality. When psychiatric patients close their mouths, resist medication, or have low cooperation, these methods are ineffective in managing medication administration. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a new type of medication administerer that can effectively solve the above problems, improve the efficiency of administering medication to psychiatric patients, and reduce the workload of caregivers. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a medication feeder for the care of mental patients. By expanding the patient's mouth, medication can be easily delivered into the patient's mouth, solving the problems of low cooperation and difficulty in administering medication to mental patients, and providing effective assistance to nursing staff in their nursing work.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a medication feeder for the care of mental patients, comprising a first operating arm and a second operating arm, the first operating arm and the second operating arm being distributed crosswise, the first operating arm and the second operating arm being hinged to each other at the intersection, one end of the first operating arm and the second operating arm being provided with an expansion member that can extend into the patient's mouth; the other end of the first operating arm and the second operating arm are each movably sleeved with a sleeve block, and a rubber rod is connected between a pair of sleeve blocks by a hinge.

[0005] Preferably, a push-pull rod is vertically connected to the center of the side of the rubber rod away from the hinge axis of the first and second control arms, and a push-pull ring is connected to the end of the push-pull rod away from the rubber rod.

[0006] Preferably, the end of the first control arm away from the expansion member is provided with a handle, and the push-pull rod and push-pull ring extend into the handle.

[0007] Preferably, a sleeve is fixed to the end of the handle facing the rubber rod. The sleeve is coaxially distributed with the push-pull rod, which passes through the sleeve. The push-pull ring is located on the side of the sleeve away from the rubber rod. A baffle is slidably embedded inside the sleeve and is fixedly sleeved on the push-pull rod. A spring is provided between the baffle and the end face of the sleeve away from the rubber rod.

[0008] Preferably, the end of the sleeve facing the rubber rod is detachably connected to an end plate.

[0009] Preferably, the ends of the first and second control arms equipped with the expansion members are arranged in an arc shape facing opposite sides.

[0010] Preferably, the expansion member includes a guide vane fixed to the bottom of the bent end of the first and second control arms. The guide vane is bent on the same side as the first and second control arms, and the diameter of the guide vane gradually decreases from top to bottom. An expansion tube is vertically connected to the bottom end of the guide vane.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0012] This invention, through the design of a first and second manipulator, a rubber rod, and a sleeve, allows nurses to hold the handle and insert the expanding tubes at the curved ends of the first and second manipulators into the patient's mouth. Pulling the push-pull ring moves the rubber rod in the opposite direction, and the sleeve forces the first and second manipulators to perform a scissor motion. The curved ends of the first and second manipulators move away from each other, causing a pair of guide plates and a pair of expanding tubes to move away from each other as well. The pair of expanding tubes can keep the patient's mouth open. With the assistance of the curved guide plates, medication can be easily delivered into the patient's mouth, solving the problems of low cooperation and difficulty in administering medication to psychiatric patients, and providing effective assistance to nurses in their nursing work.

[0013] This invention, through the design of a sleeve and a spring, allows the push-pull ring to be released after medication administration. The spring inside the sleeve can elastically push the baffle, causing the push-pull rod to move towards the hinge axis of the first and second control arms. This pushes the rubber rod in conjunction with the sleeve block, forcing the bent ends of the first and second control arms to come together and reset. The expansion tube can then be pulled out of the patient's mouth to end medication administration, without needing to push the push-pull ring again, making the operation convenient.

[0014] Of course, any product implementing this utility model does not necessarily need to achieve all of the advantages described above at the same time. Attached Figure Description

[0021] Example

[0022] Please see Figures 1 to 4 The present invention preferably provides the following technical solution: a medication feeder for the care of psychiatric patients, comprising a first operating arm 1 and a second operating arm 2, the first operating arm 1 and the second operating arm 2 being arranged crosswise, and hinged together at the intersection. One end of the first operating arm 1 and the second operating arm 2 is provided with an expansion member 3 that can extend into the patient's mouth. The other end of the first operating arm 1 and the second operating arm 2 is movably fitted with a sleeve block 5. A rubber rod 6 is hinged between a pair of sleeve blocks 5. The caregiver holds the end of the first operating arm 1 or the second operating arm 2 away from the expansion member 3, inserts the expansion member 3 into the patient's mouth, and pulls the rubber rod 6 away from the first operating arm 1. The longitudinal arm 1 and the second control arm 2 move in the direction of their hinge axis. As the rubber rod 6 moves, it drives a pair of sleeves 5 to force the first control arm 1 and the second control arm 2 to make a scissor-like movement. The ends of the first control arm 1 and the second control arm 2 facing the expansion member 3 move away from each other. The expansion member 3 can expand the patient's mouth and keep it open. At this time, the medication can be easily delivered into the patient's mouth, solving the problem of low cooperation and difficulty in feeding medication to mental patients. This provides effective assistance to the nursing staff. The rubber rod 6 is made of rubber and can be bent when pulled, ensuring that pulling the rubber rod 6 can cooperate with the pair of sleeves 5 to force the first control arm 1 and the second control arm 2 to make a scissor-like movement.

[0023] In this embodiment, a push-pull rod 7 is vertically connected to the center of the side of the rubber rod 6 away from the hinge axis of the first operating arm 1 and the second operating arm 2. A push-pull ring 8 is connected to the end of the push-pull rod 7 away from the rubber rod 6. A handle 4 is provided at the end of the first operating arm 1 away from the expansion member 3. The push-pull rod 7 and the push-pull ring 8 extend into the handle 4. By holding the handle 4 and pulling the push-pull ring 8 with your fingers, the rubber rod 6 can be moved.

[0024] In a further embodiment, a sleeve 9 is fixed to one end of the handle 4 facing the rubber rod 6. The sleeve 9 is coaxially distributed with the push-pull rod 7, and the push-pull rod 7 passes through the sleeve 9. The push-pull ring 8 is located on the side of the sleeve 9 away from the rubber rod 6. A baffle 12 is slidably embedded in the sleeve 9. The baffle 12 is fixedly sleeved on the push-pull rod 7. A spring 13 is provided between the baffle 12 and the end face of the sleeve 9 away from the rubber rod 6. When the finger pulls the push-pull ring 8 to pull the rubber rod 6, the push-pull rod 7 drives the baffle 12 to squeeze the spring 13. When the finger releases the push-pull ring 8, the spring 13 pushes the baffle 12 to reset the push-pull rod 7. The push-pull rod 7 pushes the rubber rod 6 to drive a pair of sleeve blocks 5 to force the first operating arm 1 and the second operating arm 2 to reset.

[0025] In this embodiment, an end plate 14 is detachably connected to one end of the sleeve 9 facing the rubber rod 6, which facilitates internal assembly of the sleeve 9.

[0026] In a further embodiment, the first control arm 1 and the second control arm 2 are equipped with an expansion member 3, which is arranged in an arc shape with one end facing the opposite side. The expansion member 3 includes a guide plate 10 fixed to the bottom of the curved end of the first control arm 1 and the second control arm 2. The guide plate 10 is curved on the same side as the first control arm 1 and the second control arm 2. The arc-shaped curved structure conforms to the shape of the human mouth, and the diameter of the guide plate 10 gradually decreases from top to bottom. The bottom end of the guide plate 10 is vertically connected to an expansion tube 11. Through this structural design, a pair of expansion tubes 11 can be easily inserted into the patient's mouth to perform expansion. After the patient's oral cavity is expanded, the structure of the guide plate 10, which is larger at the top and smaller at the bottom, is conducive to the delivery of drugs.

[0027] In use, the nurse holds the handle 4 away from the end of the first control arm 1, then places their index and / or middle fingers on the push-pull ring 8. The nurse then inserts the expansion tubes 11 at the ends of the first and second control arms 1 and 2 into the patient's mouth, and immediately pulls the push-pull ring 8. The push-pull ring 8, via the push-pull rod 7, moves the rubber rod 6 away from the hinge axis of the first and second control arms 1 and 2. As the rubber rod 6 moves, it forces the first and second control arms 1 and 2 to perform a scissor motion through a pair of sleeves 5. The curved ends of the first and second control arms 1 and 2 move away from each other, causing a pair of guide vanes 10 and a pair of expansion tubes 11 to move. With the two expansion tubes 11 positioned far apart, they keep the patient's mouth open. With the assistance of the curved guide plate 10, the medication can be easily delivered into the patient's mouth, solving the problem of low cooperation and difficulty in administering medication to mental patients. This provides effective assistance to nursing staff. Furthermore, after the medication is administered, the push-pull ring 8 is released, and the spring 13 inside the sleeve 9 pushes the baffle 12, causing the push-pull rod 7 to move towards the hinge axis of the first control arm 1 and the second control arm 2. This pushes the rubber rod 6 in conjunction with the sleeve block 5 to force the curved ends of the first control arm 1 and the second control arm 2 to come together, allowing the expansion tube 11 to be pulled out of the patient's mouth to end the medication administration.
