Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to a container assembly with counting and locking functions, which is mainly used in a sprayer for inhalation administration. Belongs to the technical field of medical appliances.
Background
A hand-held inhalation nebulizer is a device that is used by a patient for a long period of time without supervision. In some cases, such as asthmatics, it is important for the user to ensure that there is an adequate supply of medicament in the nebulizer. Therefore, it is increasingly common in commercial products to provide inhalation nebulizers with counting devices. In addition, the sprayer with the self-locking function is increasingly common in the market, namely, after the use times of the sprayer and the container are used up, the sprayer can be locked by itself and cannot be reused, and the sprayer and the container are all disposable.
CN111821546a discloses a sprayer, an indicator device and a container. The indicator has the advantages that the locking function is integrated on the container, and the container enters the locking state after the sprayer is used for spraying 60 times, so that the sprayer cannot be reused. The sprayer can be used continuously after being replaced by a new container, namely, the sprayer can be reused, and the container is disposable. Compared with the prior all-disposable mode, the sprayer has higher utilization rate, less burden on the environment and can save the use cost for patients. However, the structure of this mode is more complicated, and the part manufacturing difficulty is higher.

After the counter mechanism opens the upper casing of the counter, as shown in fig. 5, the transmission gear 19, the counter gear 21 and the rotating device 11 which are arranged in the upper casing and the lower casing of the counter can be seen, the partial rotating gear 18 at the upper end of the rotating device 11 is meshed with the transmission gear 19, the transmission gear 19 is meshed with the counter gear 21, the upper end surface of the counter gear 21 is provided with a positioning shaft 24, and the transmission gear 19 is arranged on the positioning shaft 24.
As shown in fig. 5, the transmission gear 19 is provided with 24 teeth 20, the partial rotation gear 18 on the rotation device 11 is provided with 3 teeth, the counting gear 21 is provided with 60 teeth 22, and the end of the counting gear teeth 21 is provided with a locking block 23.
Every 4 uses of the sprayer device, the rotating device 11 rotates 360 degrees, the partial rotation gear 18 pushes the transmission gear 19 to rotate 45 degrees (3 teeth), and the transmission gear 19 drives the counting gear 21 to rotate 18 degrees (3 teeth).
As shown in fig. 6, the counter mechanism 7 comprises an upper counter housing 8, a transmission gear 19, a counter gear 21, a rotating device 11, a spring 12, a sliding base 13 and a lower counter housing 25 from top to bottom. The lower end of the counting gear 21 is provided with a columnar ring 26, the lower end of the columnar ring 26 is marked with numbers/counting display along the outer circumferential direction, and a square observation window 27 is formed in the lower counter shell 25, so that the remaining usable times of the device can be observed conveniently.
As shown in fig. 6 (in conjunction with fig. 2), the lower port of the counter lower case 25 is formed with an inner support plate 28 inwardly and upwardly, and a cylindrical ring 26 is placed on an annular bottom plate of the inner support plate 28 between the counter lower case 25 and the inner support plate 28.
As shown in fig. 6, 2 vertical tangential planes 29 are provided on the outer wall of the sliding base 13, 2 corresponding vertical tangential planes are provided on the inner wall of the inner supporting plate 28, and the sliding base 13 and the inner supporting plate 28 are connected in a vertically sliding manner through the corresponding vertical tangential planes.
As shown in fig. 6, the bottom of the inner pallet 28 extends inwardly to form an inner pallet strip 32, and the slide base 13 is placed on the inner pallet strip 32.
The container assembly for a sprayer device of the invention is operated with the sliding base 13 (with the spring 12) reciprocating up and down between the counter gear 21 and the counter lower housing 25 (along the vertical tangential plane 29). The rotating device 11 performs a circular rotation movement in the cylindrical ring 26 of the counter gear 21. There is no axial relative movement between the rotary device 11 and the counter gear 21, and only up and down movement occurs when the container 4 drives the counter mechanism 7 up and down.
The counting gear 21 of the container assembly for a sprayer device of the invention requires only 60 teeth to ensure that the counting mechanism counts 80 sprays. In the specific embodiment of the present invention, the spray is not fully used 80 times, but only 60 spraying, i.e. locking, embodiments are shown by way of example. In addition, the count display at the lower end of the counter gear cylindrical ring 26 is designed to count down, and when the sprayer device completes 60 actuations, the count display is 0, and at this time, the transmission gear 19 cannot continue to rotate due to contact with the counter gear locking block 23, and accordingly, the partial rotation gear 18 meshed with the transmission gear 19, and the rotation device 11 cannot continue to rotate, so that the locking of the container assembly is realized. The rotation device 11 is locked, so that the container 4 and the counting mechanism 7 cannot move downwards to the normal height of one relative position, and the sprayer device cannot rotate normally, and the sprayer device is locked accordingly, so that the sprayer device cannot be used continuously.
When the device is used, a user rotates the upper and lower shells 1 and 2 of the sprayer, the container assemblies 4 and 7 move downwards along with the upper and lower shells, and in the process of moving a relative position, the sliding base 13 of the counting mechanism 7 is contacted with the first bulge 3 at the bottom of the lower shell 2 of the sprayer, and the first bulge 3 jacks up the sliding base 13. Because the anti-rotation feature (i.e. the vertical tangential plane 29) is disposed between the sliding base 13 and the counter lower case 25, the sliding base 13 can only move upwards along the vertical tangential plane 29 after being stressed, at this time, the rotating device 11 moves from the limit valley 17 to the limit peak 16 in the special-shaped sliding rail 14 by means of the sliding protrusion 15 on the sliding base 13, thereby realizing counterclockwise rotation, and compresses the spring 12 to store potential energy.
When the sprayer device is released, the container assemblies 4, 7 move upwards, and accordingly the springs 12 release potential energy, causing the sliding projections 15 on the sliding base 13 to move from the limit peaks 16 to the limit valleys 17 of the profiled sliding rail 14, and the rotating device 11 rotates counterclockwise again. Namely: each time the atomizer device is actuated, the rotation means 11 will complete a 90 ° counter-clockwise rotation therewith.
For every 4 actuations of the sprayer device, the rotating device 11 rotates 360 degrees, the partial rotating gear 18 pushes the transmission gear 19 to rotate 45 degrees, the transmission gear 19 synchronously pushes the counting gear 21 to rotate 18 degrees, and the counter realizes one counting. When the sprayer device is actuated for 60 times, the transmission gear 19 is in contact with the counting gear locking block 23, the counting mechanism cannot rotate continuously, the sprayer device cannot be used continuously, and self-locking of the sprayer device is achieved.
