Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a nasal irrigator for newborns. Background Technology

[0002] Newborns are prone to runny noses when they have a cold. If not cleaned promptly, this can easily block the nostrils, seriously affecting their normal breathing. Currently, the common method for cleaning a newborn's nostrils is rinsing, using a nasal irrigator. One existing nasal irrigator includes an air bladder with a nozzle at the top. When used, pressing the air bladder sprays liquid from the nozzle, flushing the nostrils. However, the nozzle's cylindrical shape results in a strong and concentrated jet of water when the air bladder is pressed, which can easily cause discomfort to the infant and potentially damage the nasal cavity. Furthermore, some foreign objects in the nasal cavity are stubborn, and current nasal irrigators lack a structure to expel these objects, hindering their removal. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a nasal irrigator for newborns to solve the problems mentioned in the background section.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a neonatal nasal irrigator, comprising... A spherical airbag, wherein the bottom of the spherical airbag is provided with an injection nozzle, the lower end of which is detachably connected to an end cap, and the end cap is provided with a first one-way valve that allows air to enter only; the upper end of the spherical airbag is provided with a drain nozzle, the top of which is detachably connected to a flushing component, and the drain nozzle is provided with a second one-way valve that allows liquid to drain outwards only. The flushing component includes a connector that mates with the upper end of the drain nozzle. An injection pipe is provided on the upper side of the connector, and a flushing head is fixedly provided on the top of the injection pipe. The flushing head has a spherical hollow structure, and several spray holes are evenly distributed in a ring at the upper end of the flushing head.

[0005] As a preferred technical solution, an elastic clip for pressing the nostrils is connected to the spherical airbag on one side of the drainage nozzle.

[0006] As a preferred technical solution, a first ring is fixedly provided on the spherical airbag on one side of the drain nozzle. The first ring is fixedly connected to one end of the first tether, and the other end of the first tether is tied with the elastic clip.

[0007] As a preferred technical solution, the elastic card includes an elastic plate with an arc-shaped lower opening, a second ring is fixedly provided on the top surface of the elastic plate, the second ring is tied and fixed with the first tether rope, and hemispherical silicone protrusions are respectively bonded and fixed on the inner surface of the lower end of the elastic plate.

[0008] As a preferred technical solution, the elastic plate includes an inner elastic steel sheet, and the outer surface of the elastic steel sheet is wrapped with a rubber layer.

[0009] As a preferred technical solution, a second circular chamfer is provided at the lower corner of the elastic plate.

[0010] As a preferred technical solution, the lower end of the injection nozzle is threadedly connected to the end cap, the top of the drain nozzle is threadedly connected to the flushing component, the connector is a threaded connector, and the upper surface edge of the threaded connector is provided with a first circular chamfer.

[0011] As a preferred technical solution, a third ring is fixedly provided on the spherical airbag on the other side of the drain nozzle. The third ring is fixedly connected to one end of the second tether, and a scraping tool that cooperates with the nostril is tied to the other end of the second tether.

[0013] As a preferred technical solution, the support rod is a PVC support rod, the spoon body is a silicone spoon body, the top of the support rod is inserted and fixed in the hand, and the bottom of the support rod is bonded and fixed to the upper end of the spoon body.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a nasal irrigator for newborns, which has the following beneficial effects: 1. This utility model has an end cap threaded to the lower end of the injection nozzle, and a first one-way valve that allows air to enter. The upper end of the spherical airbag has a drain nozzle, and a flushing component is connected to the top of the drain nozzle. The drain nozzle has a second one-way valve that allows liquid to drain outwards. In use, the spherical airbag can be used to store flushing liquid. By opening the bottom end cap and pointing the injection nozzle upwards, flushing liquid can be injected into the spherical airbag. By screwing on the end cap and pressing the spherical airbag, the liquid will spray out from the drain nozzle under pressure. When squeezed, the second one-way valve opens and the first one-way valve closes. When the spherical airbag is released, the second one-way valve closes and the first one-way valve opens, facilitating air intake.

[0015] 2. This utility model includes a flushing component comprising a connector that mates with the upper end of the drain nozzle. An injection tube is located on the upper side of the connector, and a flushing head is fixedly mounted on the top of the injection tube. The flushing head has a spherical hollow structure, with several spray holes evenly distributed in a ring at its upper end. In use, the spherical flushing head, compared to a cylindrical head, can protect the nasal cavity wall, and the multiple spray holes can disperse pressure, making the flushing fluid gentler and alleviating discomfort in newborns. This solves the problem of previous cylindrical nozzles spraying a strong and concentrated water jet, which easily caused discomfort and damage to the nasal cavity in infants. The flushing component is detachable for easy cleaning and replacement.

[0016] 3. This utility model incorporates an elastic card, which includes an elastic plate with an arc-shaped lower opening. A second ring is fixedly mounted on the top surface of the elastic plate and tied to a first tether. Hemispherical silicone protrusions are bonded and fixed to the inner surface of the lower end of the elastic plate. During use, when rinsing, the elastic card can be placed on both sides of the nose and then pressed repeatedly, causing the silicone protrusions to squeeze the nasal cavity from the outside in. Simultaneously, the rinsing solution is used to rinse, causing foreign objects in the nasal cavity to be squeezed and softened or to be dislodged, facilitating the discharge of foreign objects. This solves the problem that existing nasal irrigators do not have a structure to squeeze foreign objects in the nasal cavity, which is not conducive to the discharge of foreign objects.

[0017] 4. This utility model includes a scraping tool with a vertical handle. A fourth ring is fixed at the top of the handle and tied to a second rope. The handle is cylindrical with a threaded boss at the bottom. A support rod is fixed at the bottom of the threaded boss, and a flexible spoon is fixed at the end of the support rod. A cap for storing the support rod and spoon is threaded onto the threaded boss. When in use, if there are foreign objects in the nasal cavity that have not been thoroughly rinsed, the cap can be opened, the handle can be held, and the spoon can be inserted into the nostril to gently scrape and assist in cleaning the foreign objects.

[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model. Example 1

[0021] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, a neonatal nasal irrigator includes a spherical airbag 1. The bottom of the spherical airbag 1 has an injection nozzle 11, and the lower end of the injection nozzle 11 is threadedly connected to an end cap 2. The end cap 2 has a first one-way valve 21 that allows air to enter only. The upper end of the spherical airbag 1 has a drainage nozzle 12, and the top of the drainage nozzle 12 is threadedly connected to a flushing component 3. The drainage nozzle 12 has a second one-way valve (not shown) that allows only outward drainage. The flushing component 3 includes a connector 31 that mates with the upper end of the drainage nozzle 12. An injection tube 32 is located on the upper side of the connector 31, and a flushing head 33 is fixedly mounted on the top of the injection tube 32. The flushing head 33 has a spherical hollow structure, and several spray holes 34 are evenly distributed in a ring at its upper end.

[0022] A first collar 13 is fixedly installed on the spherical airbag 1 on one side of the drainage nozzle 12. The first collar 13 is fixedly connected to one end of the first tether 4, and the other end of the first tether 4 is tied with an elastic clip 5 for pressing the nostril. The elastic clip 5 includes an elastic plate 51 with an arc-shaped lower opening. A second collar 52 is fixedly installed on the top surface of the elastic plate 51. The second collar 52 is tied (removably) to the first tether 4. Hemispherical silicone protrusions 53 are respectively glued and fixed to the inner surface of the lower end of the elastic plate 51.

[0023] The elastic plate 51 includes an internal elastic steel sheet (not shown) with a rubber layer covering its outer surface.

[0024] The connector 31 is a threaded connector, and the upper surface edge of the threaded connector is provided with a first circular chamfer 311 (which protects the nasal cavity of newborns).

[0025] The lower corner of the elastic plate 51 is provided with a second rounded chamfer 54 (which protects the outer surface of the baby's nose).

[0026] In use, the spherical airbag 1 can be used to store the rinsing fluid. Opening the bottom cap and pointing the injection nozzle 11 upwards allows the rinsing fluid to be injected into the spherical airbag 1. Screwing on the end cap 2 and pressing the spherical airbag 1 causes the fluid to spray out through the discharge nozzle 12 under pressure. When squeezed, the second one-way valve opens (the second one-way valve is closed when not squeezed), and the first one-way valve 21 closes. When the spherical airbag 1 is released, the second one-way valve closes, and the first one-way valve 21 opens, facilitating air intake. The spherical rinsing head 33, compared to a cylindrical head, provides better protection for the nasal cavity wall, and the multiple spray holes 34 disperse pressure, resulting in a gentler rinsing fluid that alleviates discomfort in newborns. Furthermore, the rinsing component 3 can be disassembled via threads for easy cleaning and replacement. During rinsing, the elastic clip 5 can be placed on both sides of the nose (corresponding to the pressable parts of the nose), and then pressed back and forth, causing the silicone protrusion 53 to squeeze the nasal cavity from the outside in. At the same time, the rinsing solution is used to rinse, which makes the foreign object in the nasal cavity soft or promotes its dislodgement, facilitating the expulsion of the foreign object. Specifically, the first tether 4 can prevent the elastic clip 5 from being lost, and the elastic clip 5 can also be removed from the first tether 4. Example 2

[0027] like Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, a third ring 14 is fixedly provided on the spherical airbag 1 on the other side of the drain nozzle 12. The third ring 14 is fixedly connected to one end of the second rope 6, and the other end of the second rope 6 is tied with a scraping tool 7 that cooperates with the nostril.

[0028] The scraping tool 7 includes a vertical handle 71. A fourth ring 72 is fixedly provided at the top of the handle 71. The fourth ring 72 is tied and fixed to the second rope 6. The handle 71 is a vertical cylinder with a threaded boss 73 at the bottom with a narrowed diameter. A support rod 74 is fixedly provided at the bottom of the threaded boss 73. A flexible spoon body 75 is fixedly provided at the end of the support rod 74. A cap 76 that can accommodate the support rod 74 and the spoon body 75 is threadedly connected to the threaded boss 73.

[0029] The support rod 74 is a PVC support rod (made of rigid PVC material), with its top inserted and fixed in the hand 71, and its bottom glued and fixed to the upper end of the spoon body 75 or integrally formed.

[0030] The spoon body (75) is made of silicone. Its soft texture protects the nasal cavity walls of newborns.

[0031] When in use, if there are foreign objects in the nasal cavity that have not been thoroughly rinsed, the cap 76 can be opened, the handle 71 can be held, and the spoon body 75 can be inserted into the nostril to gently scrape and assist in cleaning the foreign objects. The second tether 6 can prevent the scraping tool 7 from being lost, and the scraping tool 7 can also be detached from the second tether 6.
