The inner diameter of the dispensing hole can be determined according to the actual situation, generally... Several sealing rings are spaced apart on the outer wall of the earplug body along the axial direction of the earplug body, and the outer diameter of the sealing rings gradually increases from the small end to the large end of the earplug body.
[0005] Furthermore, the sealing ring is integrally formed with the earplug body.
[0006] Furthermore, the lower end of the cylinder is a conical ring and the dispensing hole is located on the conical ring, and the lower end of the trigger rod is a conical part that fits against the inner wall of the conical ring.
[0007] Furthermore, the sealing ring body has an umbrella-shaped structure that is smaller at the bottom and larger at the top.
[0008] Furthermore, a connector is concentrically provided on the bottom wall of the lower end of the earplug body; It also includes a cover that is fixedly connected to the connector.
[0009] Furthermore, it also includes a drug delivery head fixedly connected to the connector. The drug delivery head is a pointed conical cover, and the drug delivery head is provided with several drug delivery holes with an inner diameter smaller than the inner diameter of the drug dispensing hole. The maximum outer diameter of the drug delivery head is smaller than the minimum outer diameter of the earplug body. The inner diameter of the drug delivery holes is generally 1mm-3mm.
[0010] Furthermore, a protective ring is fixedly provided on the top wall of the earplug body, and a boss that can connect with the cover or the dispensing head is fixedly provided on the top wall and located inside the protective ring. At least one boss is provided, and generally two are provided.
[0011] Furthermore, the upper end of the trigger rod extends out of the cylinder and a handle is fixedly provided at the extended end, with the upper end of the handle being lower than the upper end of the protective ring.
[0012] Furthermore, the outer walls of the connector and the boss are provided with external threads, and the cover and the drug delivery head are provided with internal threads that mate with the external threads.
