Description

The utility model relates to veterinary medical equipment, in particular, to bolus dispensers for administering boluses or capsules with therapeutic or prophylactic drugs to large animals.

Bolus (Bolus) - a dosage form used in veterinary medicine for internal use mainly for large animals - cows, horses (Veterinary Pharmacy: textbook / N.L. Andreeva, G.A. Nozdrin, A.M. Lunegov [et al.]. - St. Petersburg: Lan, 2020. - 452 p.). At the same time, the boluses themselves consist of a medicinal substance and a shaping base (Sokolov, V.D. Pharmacology: textbook / V.D. Sokolov. - 4th ed., Rev. and add. - St. Petersburg: Lan, 2022. - 576 p.).

A bolus dispenser for large animals is known, consisting of a cylindrical body with external stops for the fingers, in which a piston is provided, equipped with a rod connected to an element for removing the bolus located at the end of a flexible cylindrical body, which is made in the form of a cylindrical pipe, with a round plate placed in it, connected to the rod (see FR 2991866 A1, published 12/20/2013). This bolus dispenser is chosen as a prototype.

The disadvantage of the prototype is that the bolus is injected only into the mouth of the animal, as well as the impossibility of introducing a bolus or a capsule with the drug directly into the esophagus, which greatly complicates the use of this bolus giver in industrial animal husbandry, since the bolus or capsule can be spit by animals, which makes it impossible for the planned administration of drugs.

The technical result consists in the rapid introduction of a capsule with the necessary drug directly into the esophagus, which ensures that the animals receive the required drug therapy.

The technical result is achieved by the fact that the device for introducing capsules to ruminants consists of a flexible cylindrical body with external stops for the fingers, in which a piston is placed, equipped with a rod connected to an element for removing the capsule made in the form of a pipe with an inner plate, and the pipe is made in the form of a truncated cone connected to a round plate provided with a spherical groove for accommodating the capsule, while the round plate is provided with a hole for the rod and connected to the cylindrical body.

The essence of the utility model is illustrated by the drawing, in which Fig. 1 shows a general view of the proposed device.

A device for introducing capsules to ruminants consists of a flexible cylindrical body 1 with external stops 2 for the fingers, in which a piston 3 is placed, equipped with a rod 4 connected to an element for removing the capsule made in the form of a pipe 5 with an inner plate 6, the pipe being made in the form of a truncated cone connected to a round plate 6 provided with a spherical groove 7 for accommodating the capsule 8, while the round plate 6 is provided with a hole 9 for the rod 4 and is connected to the cylindrical body 1. The execution of the branch pipe 5 in the form of a truncated cone is due to the requirement to reduce injuries during the introduction of medicinal substances into the esophagus.

The capsule dispenser is used as follows. The capsule is fixed in the spherical groove 7 further, the animal's mouth is opened and the cylindrical body I is carefully inserted through the oral cavity into the pharynx and further into the esophagus, then, rubbing against the outer stops for the fingers 2, they press on the piston 3 and push the capsule 8 directly into the esophagus with the rod 4. After performing the manipulation, the device is removed and the animal's mouth is closed, while slightly raising its head with a simultaneous stroking of the throat to cause an unconditioned reflex - swallowing, which ensures that the capsule enters the animal's digestive system.

The utility of the device for administering capsules to ruminants is that:

1 - the safety of capsules is increased when given through the oral cavity to large animals directly into the esophagus by eliminating damage and spoilage during unauthorized chewing;

2 - complete exclusion of the possibility of spitting out the capsule by animals when a bolus or capsule with the drug is administered directly into the esophagus is achieved, which makes it possible to achieve plannedness and increase the efficiency of the event;

3 - a guarantee is achieved that the animals receive the required drug therapy.

Claims (1)

The capsule dispenser consists of a flexible cylindrical body with external stops for the fingers, in which a piston is placed, equipped with a rod connected to an element for removing the capsule, made in the form of a branch pipe with an inner plate, characterized in that the branch pipe is made in the form of a truncated cone connected to a round plate provided with a spherical groove for accommodating the capsule, while the round plate is provided with a hole for the rod and connected to the flexible cylindrical body .
