Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of drug bottle opener technology, and in particular to a convenient and multifunctional drug bottle opener device. Background Technology

[0002] In hospital clinical practice, injectable medications are commonly packaged in the form of sealed bottles with plastic caps, sealed bottles with aluminum caps, and ampoules. Nurses need to frequently open these packages during their daily medication preparation work, sometimes dozens to hundreds of times a day. This high-intensity, repetitive manual bottle-opening operation relies heavily on continuous friction or breakage of the hands, which can easily lead to occupational health problems such as hand abrasion, calluses, and even wrist strain in the long run.

[0003] To address these issues, auxiliary tools such as bottle openers and integrated bottle opener scissors have emerged on the market. However, these tools still have significant limitations in practical applications: Bottle openers are typically large, requiring significant space on the treatment table. However, nurses often need to simultaneously hold multiple medications, syringes, and disinfectants on the table when preparing medications, making space extremely limited and hindering the practical deployment of such tools. Integrated bottle opener scissors, mostly made of metal, are heavy and can increase hand strain. Furthermore, existing bottle openers are often single-function, designed only for a specific type of packaging and unable to simultaneously open plastic caps, aluminum caps, and ampoules. Nurses still need to alternate between different tools in practice, which not only fails to fundamentally reduce operational complexity but also disrupts workflow due to tool switching, resulting in limited overall efficiency improvement. Therefore, there is an urgent clinical need for a bottle opener that is compact, lightweight, and multifunctional, to genuinely improve nurses' work experience and efficiency.

[0004] To address these technical problems, we propose a convenient and multifunctional drug bottle opener. Utility Model Content

[0005] This invention provides a convenient and multifunctional drug bottle opening device to solve the problems mentioned in the background art, such as the large size of existing bottle opening tools, which require a lot of space, and the limited functionality of bottle opening tools, which makes it difficult to meet the opening needs of different containers.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: A convenient and multifunctional drug bottle opener includes: A column having a first end and a second end that are positioned opposite to each other; A metal cap bottle opener is located at the first end of the column. An aluminum cap opening tool is located at the second end of a column. The aluminum cap opening tool includes a cap sleeve and an opening fork. The opening fork is installed inside the cap sleeve. The cap sleeve has a guide component inside, which is used to guide the aluminum cap to move in the direction of the opening fork.

[0007] Furthermore, the guiding component includes multiple elastic guide plates, which are circumferentially distributed on the inner surface of the cover.

[0008] Furthermore, multiple elastic guide plates extend along the axial direction of the cover sleeve and form a guide channel in the central region of the cover sleeve.

[0009] Furthermore, the opening fork is coaxially arranged with the cover sleeve and located at the end of the guide channel.

[0010] Furthermore, the guide assembly also includes multiple springs, each spring being disposed on the side of an elastic guide plate facing away from the guide channel, with its two ends respectively abutting against the inner surface of the cover and the corresponding elastic guide plate, so that the corresponding elastic guide plate has a tendency to contract towards the axis of the guide channel.

[0011] Furthermore, the outer wall of the column is equipped with an ampoule opener and a plastic cap opener.

[0012] Furthermore, the ampoule opener includes a grinding wheel, and the outer wall of the column has a mounting groove, in which the grinding wheel is located.

[0013] Furthermore, a limiting component is provided in the mounting groove, and the grinding wheel is restricted within the mounting groove by the limiting component.

[0014] Furthermore, the limiting component is a pin, and a pin hole is provided on the side wall of the mounting groove. The pin passes through the grinding wheel and is inserted into the pin hole.

[0015] Furthermore, the first end of the column is provided with an inclined surface, and the inclined surface has a break hole for the ampoule to break off, and the ampoule break hole is a conical hole.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects achieved by this utility model are as follows: 1. By integrating a metal cap opener, an aluminum cap venting device, an ampoule opener, and a plastic cap opener onto a single column, a single opening device can open various medical containers. This also effectively reduces the size of the opening device, making it compact, lightweight, and easy to carry.

[0017] 2. By installing a cap on the column, the cap can be used as a base when the bottle opener is placed, allowing it to be placed vertically without taking up too much floor space. The bottle opener can be hung on a hook for suspension via the opening of the metal cap bottle opener.

[0018] 3. By incorporating a guide component within the cover sleeve, aluminum caps of varying sizes can be automatically guided towards the perforation fork during operation and centered. This ensures the perforation fork accurately aligns with the center of the aluminum cap for drilling, improving the ease and success rate of drilling, eliminating the need for repeated manual alignment, and increasing operational efficiency.

[0019] 4. By placing the break hole of the ampoule on the inclined surface of the column, when the top of the ampoule is inserted into the break hole, its body forms an obtuse angle with the column. The column and the ampoule body together form a lever structure with the contact point as the fulcrum. With this structure, the user only needs to lightly press the end of the column away from the break hole to generate an amplified breaking force at the marked point on the ampoule through leverage, thus easily and effortlessly breaking the ampoule.

Therefore, other examples of exemplary embodiments may have different values. It should be noted that similar reference numerals and letters in the following drawings denote similar items; therefore, once an item is defined in one drawing, it need not be further discussed in subsequent drawings.

[0030] Please see Figures 1 to 6 : This utility model provides a convenient and multifunctional drug bottle opening device, including a column 100, which has a first end and a second end arranged opposite to each other. Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, in one embodiment, the column 100 is cylindrical, with its axial direction defined as the up-down direction. The top end of the column 100 is the first end, and the bottom end is the second end. In other embodiments (not shown in the figure), the column 100 may also be a triangular prism, a square prism, or other columnar structure.

[0031] A metal cap opener 200 is disposed at the first end of the column 100; an aluminum cap opener 300 is disposed at the second end of the column 100. The aluminum cap opener 300 includes a cap sleeve 301 and an opening fork 302. The opening fork 302 is installed inside the cap sleeve 301. The cap sleeve 301 is provided with a guide component 303, which is used to guide the aluminum cap to move in the direction of the opening fork 302.

[0032] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, in one embodiment, a metal cap opener 200 is mounted on the top of the column 100, and the metal cap opener 200 has an opening 201 for opening metal bottle caps and metal crown caps, etc. An aluminum cap opener 300 is mounted on the bottom of the column 100.

[0033] In this embodiment, the cover 301 is a hollow cylindrical structure with an opening at the bottom. A circular aluminum cap can enter the cover 301 through the bottom opening, thus securing the aluminum cap within the cover 301. An opening fork 302 is disposed on the inner top surface of the cover 301 and is coaxially arranged with the cover 301. After the aluminum cap enters the cover 301, the opening fork 302 can be inserted into the top of the aluminum cap, and then rotating the cylinder 100 allows for the opening of a hole in the top of the aluminum cap.

[0034] Furthermore, in this embodiment, when the bottle opener is placed, the cap 301 can be used as a base, allowing the bottle opener to be placed vertically without occupying too much floor space. The bottle opener 200 can be hung on a hook for suspension via the opening 201 of the metal cap opener 200.

[0035] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the column 100, the metal cap bottle opener 200, and the aluminum cap hole opener 300 are preferably made of medical engineering plastics, medical stainless steel, etc. This makes the bottle opening device less prone to rust and corrosion, and also lightweight and easy to carry.

[0036] like Figures 2 to 4 As shown, in one embodiment, the guide assembly 303 includes a plurality of elastic guide pieces 3031, which are circumferentially distributed on the inner surface of the cover 301. The plurality of elastic guide pieces 3031 extend axially along the cover 301 and form a guide channel 304 in the axial region of the cover 301. An opening fork 302 is located at the end of the guide channel 304.

[0037] In this embodiment, multiple elastic guide pieces 3031 are centrally symmetrically distributed with the axis of the cover 301 as the center. Thus, a guide channel 304 can be formed among the multiple elastic guide pieces 3031, and the perforated fork 302 is located directly above the guide channel 304.

[0038] In this embodiment, the elastic guide plate 3031 is made of elastic medical engineering plastic or medical stainless steel. The surface of the elastic guide plate 3031 facing the guide channel 304 is arc-shaped and extends towards the perforation fork 302. Thus, when the cover 301 is placed on top of the aluminum cover, the aluminum cover can slide along the arc-shaped surface of the elastic guide plate 3031 towards the guide channel 304, and then along the guide channel 304 towards the perforation fork 302. In this way, the aluminum cover can be automatically guided towards the perforation fork 302 and centered during operation. This ensures that the perforation fork 302 can accurately align with the center of the aluminum cover for drilling, improving the convenience and success rate of drilling, eliminating the need for repeated manual alignment, and improving operational efficiency.

[0039] Furthermore, since the elastic guide plate 3031 is elastic, when the aluminum cap slides into the guide channel 304, the elastic guide plate 3031 can elastically deform outward, thereby enabling the guide channel 304 to accept aluminum caps of different sizes and guide aluminum caps of different sizes to move toward the opening fork 302 and achieve centered positioning, thus improving the applicability of the aluminum cap opening device 300.

[0040] like Figures 2 to 4 As shown, in an optional embodiment, the guide assembly 303 further includes a plurality of springs 3032, each spring 3032 being disposed on the side of an elastic guide piece 3031 facing away from the guide channel 304, and its two ends respectively abutting against the inner surface of the cover 301 and the corresponding elastic guide piece 3031, so that the corresponding elastic guide piece 3031 has a tendency to contract toward the axis of the guide channel 304.

[0041] Spring 3032 is made of elastic medical-grade engineering plastic or medical-grade stainless steel. When the elastic guide plate 3031 is compressed and undergoes elastic deformation, spring 3032 is also compressed and generates elastic force. Thus, the elastic force of spring 3032 can be used to improve the automatic recovery capability of elastic guide plate 3031.

[0042] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, in this invention, the outer wall of the column 100 is provided with an ampoule bottle opener 400 and a plastic cap opener 500. The plastic cap opener 500 is an arc-shaped groove formed on the outer wall of the column 100. The edge of the plastic cap can be engaged through the arc-shaped groove to pry up the plastic cap.

[0043] like Figure 5As shown, in one embodiment, the ampoule opener 400 includes a grinding wheel 401. A mounting groove 103 is formed on the outer wall of the column 100, and the grinding wheel 401 is located within the mounting groove 103. A limiting component is provided within the mounting groove 103, and the grinding wheel 401 is constrained within the mounting groove 103 by the limiting component. The limiting component is a pin 402, and a pin hole 104 is formed on the side wall of the mounting groove 103. The pin 402 passes through the grinding wheel 401 and is inserted into the pin hole 104.

[0044] In this embodiment, the grinding wheel 401 is fixedly installed in the mounting groove 103 by a pin 402, with its cutting portion exposed outside the column 100. During operation, the user can press the neck of the ampoule against the exposed grinding wheel 401 and rotate it, so that the grinding wheel 401 can scratch a mark on the surface of the neck. Then, the ampoule can be broken off along this mark.

[0045] In other embodiments, the grinding wheel 401 is rotatably mounted in the mounting groove 103 via a pin 402. Initially, a portion of the grinding wheel 401 is exposed for use. When the exposed portion wears down due to prolonged use, the grinding wheel 401 can be manually rotated to move the unused, intact portion from the mounting groove 103 to the outside, thereby extending the overall service life of the grinding wheel 401.

[0046] As a further optimization of the above embodiment, a damping mechanism, such as a friction pad or elastic pressure block, may be provided at the rotatable connection between the pin 402 and the mounting groove 103. This damping mechanism can provide appropriate frictional resistance, keeping the grinding wheel 401 stable when not rotated manually, effectively preventing it from rotating accidentally during the scratching operation, and ensuring the continuity and stability of the scratches.

[0047] like Figure 1 , Figures 4 to 6 As shown, in this invention, the first end of the column 100 is provided with an inclined surface 101, and the inclined surface 101 has a break hole 102 for the ampoule to break off. The break hole 102 can be used to insert the conical top of the ampoule. The ampoule break hole 102 is a conical hole; by setting the break hole 102 as a conical hole, it can accommodate the insertion of ampoules of different sizes. Furthermore, when conical tops of different sizes are inserted into the conical break hole 102, the conical top can be locked in place using the principle of taper fit, thus achieving fixation.

[0048] like Figure 6As shown, in one embodiment, the break hole 102 is vertically formed on the inclined surface 101, and a first included angle α is formed between the inclined surface 101 and the axis of the column 100. The angle of the first included angle α can be 30° to 50°, preferably 45°. Thus, when the top of the ampoule is inserted into the break hole 102, its body will form a second included angle β with the column 100. And the second included angle β is an obtuse angle, specifically 120° to 140°, preferably 135°. Thus, through this angular relationship, the column 100 is inclined upward relative to the body of the ampoule.

[0049] From this angle, the column 100 and the ampoule body together form a lever mechanism with their contact point as the fulcrum. When the user applies downward pressure to the end of the column 100 away from the break hole 102, the lever mechanism amplifies the pressure and transmits it to the pre-marked area on the neck of the ampoule, thereby generating a concentrated bending stress and enabling easy and effortless breaking. This method avoids the risk of glass breakage and scratches that may occur when breaking the ampoule by hand due to uneven force, while effectively reducing the workload of medical personnel and improving safety and efficiency.

[0050] Furthermore, setting the second included angle β to an obtuse angle increases the spatial distance between the column 100 and the ampoule body, providing a larger, interference-free operating space for medical personnel's hands. Compared to the posture where the included angle is acute or flat, where the hands are close together and prone to mutual interference, this method allows the operator to grasp the column 100 and the ampoule body separately with both hands, forming an ergonomic force-generating posture. This not only avoids interference between the hands when exerting force but also makes the force transmission smoother and more controllable, thereby significantly improving the success rate, stability, and comfort of the breaking operation.

[0051] In summary, this utility model integrates the metal cap opener 200, aluminum cap hole opener 300, ampoule opener 400, and plastic cap opener 500 onto a single column 100, enabling a single opening device to open various medical containers. It also effectively reduces the size of the opening device, making it compact, lightweight, and easy to carry.

[0052] By providing a cap 301 on the column 100, the cap 301 can be used as a base when the bottle opener is placed, allowing the bottle opener to be placed vertically without taking up too much floor space. The bottle opener 200 can be hung on a hook for suspension via the opening 201 of the metal cap bottle opener 200.

[0053] By incorporating a guide component 303 within the cover sleeve 301 of this invention, aluminum covers of different sizes can be automatically guided towards the perforation fork 302 during operation and centered. This ensures that the perforation fork 302 accurately aligns with the center of the aluminum cover for drilling, improving the convenience and success rate of drilling, eliminating the need for repeated manual alignment, and increasing operational efficiency.

[0054] By creating the break hole 102 on the inclined surface 101 of the column 100, when the top of the ampoule is inserted into the break hole 102, its body forms an obtuse angle with the column 100. The column 100 and the ampoule body together form a lever structure with the contact point as the fulcrum. With this structure, the user only needs to lightly press the end of the column 100 away from the break hole 102 to generate an amplified breaking force at the marked area of ​​the ampoule through leverage, thus easily and effortlessly breaking the ampoule.

[0055] The above content is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is 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.
