[0002] In the medical field, some patients with respiratory diseases, such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, need better air purification and oxygen supply to relieve symptoms. Nasal oxygen cannulas are usually composed of oxygen delivery tubes, nasal plugs or nasal cannulas, connectors, etc., and are used to connect to oxygen supply equipment to ensure a smooth supply of oxygen.
[0003] Negative oxygen ions are widely recognized for their numerous health benefits, such as improving respiratory function, enhancing immunity, and relieving stress. Currently, there are some negative oxygen ion generators on the market, but these devices are usually bulky, inconvenient to carry, and cannot directly act on the human respiratory system. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a nasal wearable ion generator that can be directly connected to a nasal oxygen tube to provide users with the delivery of oxygen and negative oxygen ions, improve breathing quality, and meet people's pursuit of a healthy life.
[0004] Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide an ion generating device for use in the nose, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides a nasal ion generator, comprising a housing of an ion generator, with an air inlet and an air outlet on the left and right sides of the housing for connecting to a nasal oxygen tube. An air delivery tube is fixedly installed inside the housing, with its two ends connected to the air inlet and air outlet respectively. A connector terminal is located at the bottom right side of the housing, with a booster device connected to one end of the connector terminal inside the housing. A connector socket is connected to the outside of the booster device. A through-hole extending from the top of the outer surface of the air delivery tube to the bottom of the outer surface is formed. The top of the connector socket is fixedly installed at the bottom of the through-hole, and an emission needle is installed on the top of the connector socket. The emission needle extends through the through-hole to the outside of the air delivery tube. The emission needle is located inside the air delivery tube and discharges and separates the oxygen inside the air delivery tube into negative oxygen ions.
[0007] The front of the housing has an insertion interface, and an activated carbon filter plate is inserted into the insertion interface. The activated carbon filter plate extends through the outer surface of the housing and the gas supply pipe into the interior of the gas supply pipe. A snap-fit assembly is installed inside the activated carbon filter plate for fixing the activated carbon filter plate in place.
[0008] As a further improvement to this technical solution, the top of the housing is provided with a hole, and a protective sleeve is installed on the top of the hole. The launching needle extends through the housing and into the interior of the protective sleeve.
[0009] As a further improvement to this technical solution, the snap-fit assembly includes an insertion hole opened on the top of the activated carbon filter plate, a groove is opened on the inner wall of the insertion hole, a telescopic block is slidably installed inside the groove, a return spring is installed on the outer surface of the telescopic block, and the other end of the return spring is installed on the inner wall of the groove.
[0010] As a further improvement to this technical solution, two telescopic blocks are provided, which are symmetrically distributed inside the insertion hole. A return spring is installed on the outer surface of each telescopic block to reset the telescopic block after it has been extended or retracted.
[0011] As a further improvement to this technical solution, the part of the launching needle located in the gas supply pipe is inserted into the insertion hole, so that the telescopic block and the return spring are squeezed to clamp the launching needle.
[0012] As a further improvement to this technical solution, two emission needles are provided, which are symmetrically distributed inside the gas delivery pipe to discharge and separate the oxygen delivered in the gas delivery pipe into negative oxygen ions.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:
[0014] 1. In this nasal ion generator, the nasal oxygen tube is connected to the air inlet and the air outlet. The oxygen input through the air inlet can be delivered from the air outlet to the nasal oxygen tube for breathing. When negative oxygen ions are needed, the device is connected to the connector terminal via a data cable to energize the transmitting needle, causing the transmitting needle to discharge and separate the flowing oxygen to generate negative oxygen ions. Hydrogen can also be introduced to discharge and generate negative hydrogen ions, allowing the human body to breathe in a high concentration of negative oxygen ions or negative hydrogen ions.
[0015] 2. In this ion generator for the nose, when installing the emission needle, the activated carbon filter plate is inserted into the gas supply pipe.

[0024] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0025] Example
[0026] Please refer to Figures 1-7. The purpose of this embodiment is to provide a nasal ion generator, including a housing 1 for the ion generator. The housing 1 has an air inlet 11 and an air outlet 12 on its left and right sides for connecting to the nasal oxygen tube. An air supply tube 2 is fixedly installed inside the housing 1. The two ends of the air supply tube 2 are connected to the air inlet 11 and the air outlet 12, respectively. A connector terminal 3 is provided at the bottom right side of the housing 1. A booster device 31 is connected to the end of the connector terminal 3 inside the housing 1. A connector 32 is connected to the outside of the booster device 31. A through-hole is provided at the top of the outer surface of the air supply tube 2, extending to the bottom of the outer surface of the air supply tube 2. The top of the connector 32 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the through-hole. An emission needle 33 is installed at the top of the connector 32. The emission needle 33 extends through the through-hole to the outside of the air supply tube 2. The emission needle 33 is located inside the air supply tube 2 and discharges and separates the oxygen in the air supply tube 2 into negative oxygen ions.
[0027] By installing the gas delivery tube 2 inside the housing 1, the air inlets 11 and outlets 12 on both sides of the housing 1 can be connected, allowing the two nasal oxygen tubes to be connected to the air inlets 11 and outlets 12 of the ion generator housing 1 respectively. This allows for connection to the oxygen supply device, delivering oxygen to the patient. A through-hole is opened at the top of the outer surface of the gas delivery tube 2, allowing the emission needle 33 to be inserted into the gas delivery tube 2 through a hole in the top of the housing 1. The tail of the emission needle 33 is installed onto the connector 32 at the bottom of the through-hole, and is electrically connected to the connector 32. The booster device 31 is electrically connected to the connector terminal 3, which is used to connect the data line. When the booster device 31 is energized, it increases the voltage of the normal voltage input and applies high voltage to the transmitter needle 33 connected to the connector 32. The portion of the transmitter needle 33 located inside the gas delivery tube 2 can discharge and separate the oxygen delivered in the gas delivery tube 2 into negative oxygen ions. The negative oxygen ions are delivered to the patient through the gas delivery tube 2, the outlet 12, and the nasal cannula, achieving the effect of providing the patient with high concentrations of oxygen and negative oxygen ions for breathing.
[0028] It should be noted that the booster device 31 is a voltage booster, and the emitting needle 33 is an ion emitting needle 33, typically made of a metal material such as tungsten or stainless steel. It has a slender, needle-like shape, and the tip is specially treated to ensure good conductivity and ion emission performance. The ion emitting needle 33 is generally installed in a specific device and connected to a power source via wires to generate ions through discharge. The internal circuitry of the booster device 31 and the emitting needle 33 is existing technology, and their working principle is common knowledge to those skilled in the art, and will not be elaborated upon here.
[0029] The front of the housing 1 is provided with an insertion interface 4, and an activated carbon filter plate 41 is inserted into the insertion interface 4. The activated carbon filter plate 41 extends through the outer surface of the housing 1 and the gas supply pipe 2 to the inside of the gas supply pipe 2. A snap-fit component 42 is installed inside the activated carbon filter plate 41 for fixing the activated carbon filter plate 41.
[0030] When the emitting needle 33 discharges oxygen to generate negative oxygen ions, ozone is also produced. High concentrations of ozone are harmful to the human body. By inserting an activated carbon filter plate 41 inside the gas delivery pipe 2, the ozone generated by the discharge can be adsorbed, preventing ozone from being delivered into the patient's body and protecting the patient's health.
[0031] First, considering the question of how to install the activated carbon filter plate 41, Figures 4-7 are shown to disclose the specific structure of the snap-fit assembly 42. The snap-fit assembly 42 includes an insertion hole 401 opened on the top of the activated carbon filter plate 41. A groove is opened on the inner wall of the insertion hole 401. A telescopic block 402 is slidably installed inside the groove. A return spring 403 is installed on the outer surface of the telescopic block 402. The other end of the return spring 403 is installed on the inner wall of the groove.
[0032] Two telescopic blocks 402 are provided, symmetrically distributed inside the insertion hole 401. A return spring 403 is installed on the outer surface of each telescopic block 402 to reset it after extension and retraction. The portion of the air supply pipe 2 that is inserted into the insertion hole 401 causes the telescopic blocks 402 and the return spring 403 to be compressed, thus clamping the launch needle 33.
[0033] When installing the launching needle 33, the activated carbon filter plate 41 needs to be installed first. The activated carbon filter plate 41 can be inserted into the inside of the housing 1 through the insertion interface 4 and penetrate into the inside of the gas supply pipe 2, so that the launching needle 33 can be inserted from the hole at the top of the housing 1 into the through-hole, and then inserted into the insertion hole 401 opened on the activated carbon filter plate 41. Since the telescopic block 402 can slide inside the slot, and the telescopic block 402 is connected to the inner wall of the slot through the return spring 403, when the launching needle 33 is inserted into the insertion hole 401, it will affect the telescopic block 402. 2. The telescopic block 402 is squeezed to compress the return spring 403, and the telescopic block 402 retracts into the slot, so that the emission needle 33 can be inserted into the through insertion hole 401 and connected to the insertion seat 32. The telescopic block 402 is squeezed and fixed by the return spring 403, and the emission needle 33 is inserted into the insertion hole 401 to fix the position of the activated carbon filter plate 41. When the emission needle 33 discharges and separates oxygen, the activated carbon filter plate 41 can adsorb the ozone produced by separation to prevent ozone from entering the human body.
[0034] Secondly, considering that in order to facilitate the replacement of the firing pin 33, the top end of the firing pin 33 is to penetrate to the outside of the housing 1, the firing pin 33 needs to be protected. As shown in Figures 2 and 3, the top of the housing 1 has a hole, and a protective sleeve 5 is installed on the top of the hole. The firing pin 33 penetrates the housing 1 and extends into the interior of the protective sleeve 5.
[0035] By fixing a protective sleeve 5 to the outside of the hole opened at the top of the housing 1, the protective sleeve 5 can protect the outer surface of the emitting needle 33 and block the ions emitted by the emitting needle 33, making it easy to disassemble and replace the emitting needle 33.
[0036] Finally, in order to separate oxygen into negative oxygen ions more efficiently, as shown in Figures 2 and 3, there are two emission needles 33. The two emission needles 33 are symmetrically distributed inside the gas delivery pipe 2 to discharge and separate the oxygen delivered in the gas delivery pipe 2 into negative oxygen ions.
[0037] In summary, the working principle of this solution is as follows:
[0038] The nasal oxygen cannula is connected through the air inlet 11 and the air outlet 12. The oxygen input through the air inlet 11 can be delivered from the air outlet 12 to the nasal oxygen cannula for breathing. When it is necessary to breathe negative oxygen ions, the data cable is connected to the connector 3 to energize the transmitting needle 33, so that the transmitting needle 33 discharges and separates the flowing oxygen to generate negative oxygen ions. Hydrogen can also be introduced to discharge and generate negative hydrogen ions, so that the human body can breathe high concentrations of negative oxygen ions or negative hydrogen ions.
[0039] When installing the emitting needle 33, the activated carbon filter plate 41 is first inserted into the gas supply pipe 2 through the insertion interface 4. The connection between the activated carbon filter plate 41 and the gas supply pipe 2 is sealed, so that when the emitting needle 33 is inserted into the gas supply pipe 2, it is first inserted into the insertion hole 401, and then the insertion seat 32 is connected, so that the emitting needle 33 is inserted into the activated carbon filter plate 41, limiting the installation of the activated carbon filter plate 41. The telescopic block 402 in the insertion hole 401 can fix the position of the emitting needle 33, achieving the effect of installing the emitting needle 33 and the activated carbon filter plate 41, so that the activated carbon filter plate 41 can adsorb the ozone separated by the emitting needle 33.
