Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of animal treatment technology, specifically to an atomized drug delivery device for animal treatment. Background Technology

[0002] A pet is a creature kept by people for spiritual purposes, not economic ones. Traditionally, pets refer to mammals or birds, kept for enjoyment and companionship. In real life, pets include fish, reptiles, amphibians, insects, and even plants, kept for viewing, companionship, and stress relief. With the development of the times, the scope of pets has broadened to include animals, plants, virtual pets, and electronic pets. Keeping pets provides an opportunity for humans to connect with nature, satisfies psychological needs, and is a very healthy and normal hobby. For example, the patent subject "A drug atomization delivery device for treating cardiopulmonary diseases in animals," application number "202121540845.1," describes a method where, when connecting the pipe and air inlet pipe, the pipe and air inlet pipe are aligned so that the ring at the end of the pipe abuts against the end of the air inlet pipe, and the fastening nut is threaded onto the end of the air inlet pipe. This arrangement facilitates a sealed connection between the pipe and air inlet pipe, reducing the likelihood of leaks. The process involves the release of the nebulized medication. Each set of mounting brackets is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the box, the drain pipe is fixedly connected to each set of mounting brackets, and the exhaust pipe is connected to the intake pipe. As the pipes continuously deliver nebulized medication into the box, the nebulized medication continuously fills the exhaust pipe. The drain pipe has a large span, and the nebulized medication is sprayed out from each set of nozzles. This process improves the uniformity of the nebulized medication distribution inside the box, which is beneficial for improving the therapeutic effect. However, it cannot automatically administer the medication required for nebulization, which can lead to untimely medication replenishment when animals are receiving nebulized medication treatment, thus affecting the nebulization effect. Summary of the Invention

[0003] (a) Technical problems to be solved To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides an atomized drug delivery device for animal treatment. The drug solution in the drug delivery box can be automatically discharged into the inside of the drug solution tank, allowing for real-time drug delivery to the inside of the drug solution tank, thereby improving the efficiency of atomized treatment in animals and solving the aforementioned technical problems.

[0004] (II) Technical Solution To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: It includes a housing, a medicine tank fixedly connected to the upper surface of the housing, a first tube fixedly connected inside the medicine tank, an nebulizer fixedly connected to one end of the first tube near the medicine tank, a second tube fixedly connected to the input end of the nebulizer, a drug delivery box fixedly connected to the upper surface of the medicine tank, and an outlet pipe fixedly connected to the lower surface of the drug delivery box, the outlet pipe communicating with the medicine tank. The medicine tank is internally connected to a slider, the side surface of which is provided with a float, the upper surface of which is provided with a first telescopic rod, the first telescopic rod is internally connected to a second telescopic rod, the second telescopic rod is internally connected to a third telescopic rod, the end of the third telescopic rod away from the second telescopic rod is fixedly connected to a sealing plate, the upper surface of the sealing plate is fixedly connected to an elastic band, and the elastic band is fixedly connected to the inner top wall of the medicine tank, the upper surface of the sealing plate is provided with a plug, and the plug is fitted into the outlet pipe.

[0005] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a placement plate is fixedly connected inside the box, and the placement plate has an opening inside.

[0006] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a support plate is slidably connected inside the opening, and the lower surface of the support plate is slidably connected to the inner bottom wall of the box. An ultraviolet lamp plate is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the support plate, and lamp beads are provided on the side surface of the ultraviolet lamp plate.

[0007] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, an installation plate is fixedly connected to the inner bottom wall of the box, and electric push rods are fixedly connected to both sides of the installation plate, with the output end of the electric push rods fixedly connected to the support plate.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, an atomizing head is fixedly connected to the inner top wall of the box, and the atomizing head is fixedly connected to the first tube.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the front surface of the box is movably connected to a box door via a hinge, and the lower surface of the box is provided with casters.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a connecting plate is fixedly connected to the side surface of the ultraviolet lamp plate, and a ball bearing is movably connected to the rear surface of the connecting plate.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the present invention provides an atomized drug delivery device for animal treatment, which has the following beneficial effects: 1. When the liquid volume in the medicine tank is large, the float can slide inside the medicine tank. Utilizing the extension and retraction of the first, second, and third telescopic rods, the third telescopic rod retracts into the second telescopic rod, and the second telescopic rod retracts into the first telescopic rod, thus shortening the lengths of the first, second, and third telescopic rods to compress the sealing plate. As the liquid volume in the medicine tank decreases, the float can drive the slider downwards. When the buoyancy of the float decreases, the weight of the first, second, and third telescopic rods allows the second telescopic rod to extend from the inside of the first telescopic rod, and the third telescopic rod to extend from the inside of the second telescopic rod. When the lengths of the second and third telescopic rods are stretched to a certain extent, the third telescopic rod can pull the sealing plate and the plug downwards, pulling the elastic band and separating the plug from the outlet pipe. The liquid in the medicine tank can then be automatically discharged into the medicine tank, allowing for real-time drug administration and improving the efficiency of nebulization therapy in animals.

[0012] 2. The present invention activates the electric push rod, which pushes the support plate to slide left and right in the opening inside the placement plate, connects the ultraviolet lamp plate to the external power supply, and enables the lamp plate to emit light to disinfect the inside of the box with ultraviolet light. By using the left and right movement of the ultraviolet lamp plate, it can fully disinfect different intervals of the box with ultraviolet light.

[0013] 3. When this utility model is used for pet treatment, the movement of the rolling ball and the connecting plate can be used to allow the pet to play with the rolling ball while being placed inside the box for nebulization, thus preventing the pet from jumping around inside the box and causing stress that could affect the pet's normal nebulization.

[0019] Please see Figure 1-5A nebulized drug delivery device for animal treatment includes a housing 1. A drug solution tank 5 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the housing 1. A first tube 3 is fixedly connected inside the drug solution tank 5. An nebulizer 17 is fixedly connected to one end of the first tube 3 near the drug solution tank 5. A second tube 18 is fixedly connected to the input end of the nebulizer 17. A drug delivery box 4 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the drug solution tank 5. An outlet pipe 16 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the drug delivery box 4 and communicates with the drug solution tank 5. An atomizing head 2 is fixedly connected to the inner top wall of the housing 1, and the atomizing head 2 is connected to the first tube 18. The body 3 is fixedly connected, and the front surface of the box 1 is movably connected to the box door 26 via a hinge. The lower surface of the box 1 is provided with casters 8. The device can be moved to a designated position for use by moving the casters 8. The box door 26 is opened so that the pet can be placed inside the box 1. The atomizing head 2 can atomize the medicine in the medicine tank 5. The atomizing head 2 atomizes the medicine through the first tube 3 and produces medicine mist, which can be discharged into the box 1 to perform atomization treatment on the pet. This medicine atomization technology is the same as the existing technology, so it will not be described further.

[0020] The enclosure 1 is made of transparent material, making it easier to observe animal behavior and interactions, thus allowing for more accurate observation of treatment effects and recording and analysis of experimental data. Enclosure 1 is preferably made of PC material, which offers good transparency and durability, provides sufficient space for the experimental animals to move around, and has good sealing properties to effectively prevent drug leakage. An exhaust vent 27 can be provided on the top side of enclosure 1, with a removable plug to control its opening and closing. This exhaust vent 27 ensures air circulation within the enclosure, preventing the accumulation of moisture and drug vapor generated during nebulization, thus keeping the air inside the enclosure fresh and preventing discomfort to the cats due to breathing difficulties. It also helps to expel drug vapor and moisture generated during nebulization, reducing drug residue within the enclosure and minimizing environmental pollution and potential impacts on the animals. In addition, an opaque cover can be installed on the outside of the box 1. The opaque cover can be placed on the outside of the box 1 during use. Its main function is to prevent the animal from being disturbed by the outside world, reduce tension and anxiety, and thus reduce the stress response during the treatment process. The inside of the opaque cover is provided with a highly reflective metal coating, which can prevent the ultraviolet lamp from leaking out and affecting the treatment personnel or experimental personnel.

[0021] During and after treatment and experiments, exhaust gas treatment equipment can be connected to the outside of exhaust port 27 to render the therapeutic gases harmless, preventing environmental pollution and threats to the health of animals and operators. The exhaust gas treatment equipment can be an activated carbon filter to adsorb harmful components in the atomized gas; or it can be a waste gas recovery system to collect and treat waste gases generated during anesthesia.

[0022] A slider 19 is slidably connected inside the medicine tank 5. A float 12 is provided on the side surface of the slider 19. A first telescopic rod 13 is provided on the upper surface of the float 12. A second telescopic rod 20 is slidably connected inside the first telescopic rod 13. A third telescopic rod 21 is slidably connected inside the second telescopic rod 20. A sealing plate 14 is fixedly connected to the end of the third telescopic rod 21 away from the second telescopic rod 20. An elastic band 15 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the sealing plate 14 and is fixedly connected to the inner top wall of the medicine tank 5. A plug 22 is provided on the upper surface of the sealing plate 14 and is fitted into the outlet pipe 16. When the medicine tank 5 has a large volume of medicine, the float 12 can slide inside the medicine tank 5. By utilizing the extension and retraction of the first telescopic rod 13, the second telescopic rod 20, and the third telescopic rod 21, the third telescopic rod 21 can retract into the interior of the second telescopic rod 20 when the float 12 moves, and the second telescopic rod 20 can retract... The first telescopic rod 13 is retracted into the interior, allowing the lengths of the first telescopic rod 13, the second telescopic rod 20, and the third telescopic rod 21 to shorten and compress the sealing plate 14. As the volume of medicine in the medicine tank 5 decreases, the float 12 can drive the slider 19 to move downwards. When the buoyancy of the float 12 decreases, the weight of the first telescopic rod 13, the second telescopic rod 20, and the third telescopic rod 21 allows the second telescopic rod 20 to extend from the interior of the first telescopic rod 13, and the third telescopic rod 21 to extend from the interior of the second telescopic rod 20. When the lengths of the second telescopic rod 20 and the third telescopic rod 21 are stretched to a certain extent, the third telescopic rod 21 can pull the sealing plate 14 and the plug 22 downwards to pull the elastic band 15, allowing the plug 22 to separate from the outlet pipe 16. The medicine in the medicine tank 4 can be automatically discharged into the interior of the medicine tank 5, allowing real-time administration of medicine to the medicine tank 5, thereby improving the efficiency of animal nebulization therapy.

[0023] A placement plate 7 is fixedly connected inside the housing 1. The placement plate 7 has an opening inside, and a support plate 11 is slidably connected inside the opening. The lower surface of the support plate 11 is slidably connected to the inner bottom wall of the housing 1. An ultraviolet lamp plate 6 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the support plate 11, and lamp beads 23 are provided on the side surface of the ultraviolet lamp plate 6. An mounting plate 9 is fixedly connected to the inner bottom wall of the housing 1. Electric push rods 10 are fixedly connected to both sides of the mounting plate 9, and the output end of the electric push rods 10 is fixedly connected to the support plate 11. The electric push rods 10 are connected to an external power source, and when the electric push rods 10 are activated, they can push the support plate 11 to slide left and right in the opening inside the placement plate 7. The ultraviolet lamp plate 6 is connected to an external power source, so that the lamp plate can emit light to disinfect the inside of the housing 1 with ultraviolet light. By moving the ultraviolet lamp plate 6 left and right, it can fully disinfect different intervals of the housing 1 with ultraviolet light.

[0024] In addition, to prevent pets from jumping around inside the treatment chamber and causing stress that could affect their nebulization, devices to distract them can be installed during treatment. For example... Figure 4 As shown, a connecting plate 25 is fixedly connected to the side surface of the ultraviolet lamp plate 6. A ball bearing 24 is movably connected to the rear surface of the connecting plate 25. By utilizing the movement of the ball bearing 24 and the connecting plate 25, when the pet is placed inside the chamber 1 for nebulization, the pet can play with the ball bearing 24 to distract it from the nebulization process, thus preventing the pet from jumping around inside the chamber 1 and causing stress that could affect the pet's normal nebulization. The aforementioned ball bearing 24 is suitable for the treatment of pets such as cats and dogs, but it is not necessary for use in laboratories with large animals such as cows, sheep, and pigs.

[0025] In use, the electric push rod 10 is activated to push the support plate 11 to slide left and right through the opening inside the placement plate 7, connecting the ultraviolet lamp plate 6 to an external power source so that the lamp plate can emit light to disinfect the inside of the box 1 with ultraviolet light. The left and right movement of the ultraviolet lamp plate 6 allows for thorough ultraviolet disinfection at different intervals within the box 1. When the box door 26 is opened, the pet can be placed inside the box 1. The atomizing head 2 atomizes the medication in the medicine tank 5. The atomizing head 2, through the first tube 3, generates a mist that can be discharged into the box 1 for atomized treatment of the pet. When the medication tank 5 has a large volume of medication, the float 12 can slide inside the medicine tank 5. The extension and retraction of the first telescopic rod 13, the second telescopic rod 20, and the third telescopic rod 21 allow the float 12 to move. The third telescopic rod 21 can retract into the second telescopic rod 20, while the second telescopic rod 21... Rod 20 can retract into the interior of the first telescopic rod 13, allowing the lengths of the first telescopic rod 13, the second telescopic rod 20, and the third telescopic rod 21 to shorten and compress the sealing plate 14. As the volume of medicine in the medicine tank 5 decreases, the float 12 can drive the slider 19 to move downwards. When the buoyancy of the float 12 decreases, the weight of the first telescopic rod 13, the second telescopic rod 20, and the third telescopic rod 21 allows the second telescopic rod 20 to extend out from the interior of the first telescopic rod 13, and the third telescopic rod 21 to extend out from the interior of the second telescopic rod 20. When the lengths of the second telescopic rod 20 and the third telescopic rod 21 are stretched to a certain extent, the third telescopic rod 21 can pull the sealing plate 14 and the plug 22 downwards to pull the elastic band 15, allowing the plug 22 to separate from the outlet pipe 16. The medicine in the medicine tank 4 can then be automatically discharged into the interior of the medicine tank 5, allowing for real-time administration of medicine to the medicine tank 5.

[0026] When performing pet therapy, the movement of the rolling ball 24 and the connecting plate 25 can be used to place the pet inside the box 1 for nebulization. The pet can play with the rolling ball 24 to distract the pet from the nebulization process.

[0027] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
