Aparato facilitador de la aplicación de colirios.Appliance facilitator of eye drops

Sector de la técnicaTechnical sector

La invención se encuadra en el sector técnico de los aparatos facilitadores de la aplicación de productos farmaceúticos, en este caso colirios y gotas oculares, para garantizar la eficacia del tratamiento.The invention falls within the technical sector of product facilitation devices pharmaceuticals, in this case eye drops and eye drops, to guarantee the effectiveness of the treatment.

Estado de la técnicaState of the art

Es un aparato novedoso dado que no existe nada parecido actualmente. La observación de la práctica diaria nos demuestra que los enfermos que padecen de la vista, muy a menudo con problemas crónicos, suelen ser personas mayores que necesitan de un ayudante, familiar o profesional, para que les efectúe la aplicación de los colirios o gotas medicinales que necesitan y que esta aplicación la deben efectuar dos o tres veces por día. Esta necesidad de ayuda de terceras persona afecta también a pacientes jóvenes.It is a new device since there is nothing currently similar. The observation of daily practice we proves that patients with vision, very often with chronic problems, usually older people who need a helper, family or professional, to make the application of the eye drops or medicinal drops they need and that this application must be done two or three times a day. This need for third party help also affects patients young boys.

Hasta ahora se han patentado diversos aparatos para facilitar la administración de colirios persiguiendo la independencia del paciente, si bien todos ellos están orientados, con mayor o menor fortuna, a conseguir un aparato que incorpore el dispensador de colirio y que, colocándolo de diversas formas sobre la ceja del paciente y/o sobre el párpado, incluso con reflectante interior a modo de diana, actúe eficientemente; se trata, en todos los casos examinados, de aparatos que persiguen que la administración del medicamento fluido sea automático y que no consiguen una fiabilidad total. En la práctica se comprueba hay que aprender a utilizarlos y además el paciente debe ser habilidoso para acertar en la aplicación del colirio al globo ocular. No es la mejor solución al problema técnico planteado la propuesta de unas aplicaciones que supongan el disponer de habilidades especiales a los enfermos que deben medicarse y que además no son efectivas al completo.So far various devices have been patented to facilitate the administration of eye drops chasing the patient independence, although all of them are oriented, with greater or lesser fortune, to get a device that incorporates the eye drops dispenser and that, placing it in various ways on the patient's eyebrow and / or on the eyelid, even with reflective indoor as a target, act efficiently; it's all about the cases examined, of devices that pursue that the administration of the fluid medication is automatic and not They achieve total reliability. In practice it is verified that learn to use them and in addition the patient must be able to succeed in the application of eye drops to the eyeball. Not the best solution to the technical problem raised the proposal of some applications that involve having special skills to the patients who must medicate and who are also not effective at full.

Todas estas patentes se formulan sobre la necesidad de diseñar un aparato que se adapte o sea compatible con los múltiples tipos de envases de dispensadores o sprays que existen ya en la industria farmacéutica y que se comercializan habitualmente.All these patents are formulated on the need to design an appliance that suits or is compatible with the multiple types of dispenser or spray containers that exist already in the pharmaceutical industry and that are marketed habitually.

La invención que se presenta se aparta de las propuestas y soluciones que efectúan las otras patentes de invención existentes ofreciendo una solución absolutamente simple y efectiva al cien por cien. Destaca por su simplicidad, apartándose de los diseños más complicados, y costosos en su producción industrial, y destaca por su efectividad absoluta en el objetivo propuesto de comodidad y éxito en la aplicación del fluido ocular. Únicamente no es de utilidad para los pacientes que no tengan la movilidad en ambas manos y para aquellos que carezcan de un mínimo de visión ocular, circunstancia esta que afectaría a cualquier sistema de aplicación, dado que este tipo de enfermos son dependientes de la asistencia de terceras personas en cualquier caso.The invention presented departs from the proposals and solutions made by the other invention patents existing offering an absolutely simple and effective solution one hundred percent. It stands out for its simplicity, moving away from the more complicated and expensive designs in its industrial production, and stands out for its absolute effectiveness in the proposed objective of comfort and success in the application of the eye fluid. Only not It is useful for patients who do not have mobility in both hands and for those who lack a minimum of vision eye, circumstance that would affect any system of application, since this type of patients are dependent on the Third party assistance in any case.

Problema técnico planteadoTechnical problem raised

Es notorio que, los pacientes que padecen de los ojos, para aplicarse las curas deben estar de pié ante un espejo, controlando el aplicador de colirio con una mano y abriendo el párpado con la otra mano al tiempo deben inclinar la cabeza hacia atrás para conseguir que las gotas entren en el globo ocular y hagan efecto, en este momento se pierde el control visual y habitualmente se efectúa la aplicación incorrectamente, por lo cual en la práctica se recurre a terceras personas, profesionales o familiares, para que realicen la administración con seguridad y eficacia. Así pues, esta invención sirve para facilitar que una persona que debe aplicarse curas de colirio en los ojos se las aplique por si misma sin necesidad de ayuda de otra persona.It is notorious that, patients suffering from eyes, to apply the cures must stand before a mirror, controlling the eye drops applicator with one hand and opening the eyelid with the other hand at the time they should tilt their heads towards back to get the drops into the eyeball and make effect, at this time visual control is lost and usually the application is made incorrectly, so in practice third parties, professionals or family members are used, so that perform the administration safely and effectively. So, this invention serves to facilitate that a person to be applied eye-cure cures apply them without need help from another person

Descripción de la figura 1Description of figure 1

La base inferior (1) está formada por cuatro pletinas (2, 3, 4, 5) de aluminio soldadas por los extremos en horizontal formando un trapecio irregular. A los vértices de la base se sueldan otras cuatro pletinas (6, 7, 8, 9) verticales que se unen, también por soldadura, con los vértices de la base superior. La base superior rectangular (10) se obtiene soldando dos pletinas (11, 12) que conforman los lados menores, con dos perfiles (13, 14) en U que conforman los lados mayores. Se encaja un espejo (15) introduciéndolo por los perfiles de la base superior con el reflejo hacia la base inferior.The lower base (1) is formed by four aluminum plates (2, 3, 4, 5) welded at the ends horizontally forming an irregular trapezoid. Four other vertical plates (6, 7, 8, 9) are welded to the vertices of the base that are joined, also by welding, with the vertices of the upper base. The rectangular upper base (10) is obtained by welding two plates (11, 12) that make up the smaller sides, with two U profiles (13, 14) that make up the larger sides. A mirror (15) is fitted by inserting it through the profiles of the upper base with the reflection towards the lower base.
