INSUF'FLATOR Filed March 4, 1949 llllli I INVENTOR.
" flack if. EzieZds Patented May 16, 1950 INSUFFLATOR Mack R. Fields, Libertyville, Ill., assignor to Abbott Laboratories, North Chicago, 111., a corporation of Illinois Application March 4, 1949, Serial No. 79,659
9 Claims. 1
My invention relates to the administration of medicament, and includes among its objects and advantages compact, convenient, and eflicient equipment for medication by the inhalation of powders.
It has recently been discovered that various antibiotics and other medicaments, notably penicillin, can be administered to the human organ ism by inhalation rather than parenterally. In the case of penicillin inhaled deep into the lungs, there is the remarkable advantage that it is possible for the organism to receive such material in powdered form on the lining of the lung and absorb it through the moist surfaces on which it is deposited in such a way that it appears in the blood stream with substantially the same effectiveness as if administered subcutaneously. It is even possible, by a proper selection of grain size and chemical composition, to achieve desirable and controllable delay in the rate of absorption of such material into the system.
In the accompanying drawings:
Figure 1 is a side elevation of a complete administration unit arranged for nasal or oral administration;
Figure 2 is an exploded view of the insuillator proper;
Figure 3 is a side elevation of the insuiilator equipped with a different type outlet; and
Figure 4 is a detail of the deflector.
In the embodiment of the invention selected for illustration, the body It! is provided with a central vertical bore i2. At a lower level this bore communicates with a horizontal inlet !4 and an outlet it. Further up, the bore !2 is enlarged as at is to the diameter necessary to fit the outside of a capsule 2B. The section 18 extends up only a fraction of the vertical dimension of the capsule 2! and above the section l8 the bore is further enlarged as indicated at 22 to define an annular chamber adapted to receive a rubber sealing ring 24 and a plastic retaining ring having a peripheral flange 28 for axial abutment with the extreme upper edge 30 of the body 10.
The capsule 20 may be according to my pending application Serial Number 74,979, filed February 7, 1949, now Patent Number 2,470,298 or any other suitable configuration. In the embodiment disclosed it includes a barrel of the right size to fit in the bore I8, washer 24 and retainer 26, with a closed top at 32 and a foraminated bottom at 34. The capsule includes the flange 36 and knurled handle 38. The particular shape of the flange and handle has no signiflcance when the capsule is used in connection with such a body as is disclosed herein. When assembled, the capsule is reliably held by substantial friction arising from the fact that the washer 24 is a snug lit in the body and a snug fit 0n the capsule.
Means are provided for directing air or other gaseous mediums entering through the inlet l4, up to the capsule 2B in such a way that the stream of gas will entrain and carry out of the capsule a substantial admixture of the powdered contents, which powder will be carried out of the outlet it by the dynamic force of the stream. I have illustrated a deflector in the nature of a cylindrical stud 40 formed to be a light friction fit in the bore 52. The stud has its upper end bevelled nearly all the way across, as indicated at 42, at an angle of about 35 degrees to the axis, leaving a small plateau M at its extreme upper end and at one side of the bore i2. The parts are so proportioned that when the stud 40 is thrust home, this plateau id is substantially-in contact with the screen 34 of the capsule 20. Leading up to and debouching through the center of the plateau 44 is a small groove 46, which groove extends down far enough so that a substantial lower portion of the groove extends across the inlet M to receive the entering air. It will be apparent that gas forced in through the inlet It will have its velocity greatly increased by the reduction in cross section of the stream when it enters the groove 46 and that the air moving through the groove 46 will issue through the plateau 44 and screen 34 and enter the capsule 20. Because the major portion of the area of the screen 34 overlies the bevelled end 42 and is unobstructed, such air will turn over and go back down through the screen as indicatedby the arrow 48 in Figure 2. In so doing it will push out through the screen substantial quantities of the powdered contents and the powder thus ejected will enter the outlet I 6 and thus leave the body l0.
To secure correct positioning of the parts combined for easy cleaning, I form the stud 44 as an upward projection from the center of a flange 50. When the flange '50 is pushed into contact with the body It! the plateau 44 will be correctly positioned with respect to the screen 34. The flange 5G carries a trigger-shaped horn 52 extending below and having a concave face 54 adapted to fit one finger of the hand of the user.
It will be obvious that air under suitable pressure may be supplied to the inlet M in various conventional ways, including connection to a pressure main or mechanical source of air supply in a properly equipped operating room or hospital Ward. I have illustrated also a conventional rubber bulb 56 provided with a conventional check valve at 58 and having a tapered metal discharge nozzle 69 extending horizontally from the tip 62. In Figure 1 the delivery member 64 is a tube of transparent plas'tic'having a tapered end portion 66 adapted to fit on the outlet l5 and a rounded delivery end at 58.
This member is long enough so that the user can hold the entire device comfortably with the"delivery end 68 merely juxtaposed to one of the users nostrils or extendinginto theiopen mouth of the user to or past the uvula. The same equipment can be manipulated with equal convenience by a physician or attendant standin sidfront of the person receiving the medicament.
In Figure 3 the same'body H1 is provided with a short plastic nipple having a tapered end IZ fitting in the outlet 16 and a duplicate tapered end adapted to fit aconventional cannula 11mabronchoscope or other clinic apparatus.
I prefer to make the inlet opening Id materially' larger than the outlet l6 so that the user will always assemble the partsin the same sense, with the groove 45 facing toward the bulb 56.
Others may readily adapt the invention for use under various conditions-of service byemploying one or more of the novel features involved, orequivalents thereof. The'trigger Ed is especially comfortable when the top 62 is replaced with a valve controlled by'thumb pressure, and the bulb 56 is a tube leading to a pressure main. As at present advised with-respect to the apparent scope of my invention, I desireto claim" the following subject matter.
