Definitions

  • This invention in general relates to medical equipments, specifically a novel kind of multi dose, deep inhaling, low mouth coating dry powder inhaler State of Art
  • Existing Inhalers used by Asthmatics are metered dose pressure inhalers [called MDI] that send a spray of drug with evaporating propellant and a dry powder inhaler that has no propellant.
  • This device belongs to dry powder inhaler (DPI) type.
  • DPI inhalers are single dose (rotahalers) or a multidose (Turbuhalers, disc inhalers) with drugs as powders inhaled in a plastic body with a short and wide mouthpiece.
  • the drug spray coats the mouth and only 10-15% is sucked into the lungs.
  • the sucking of drug is difficult and wastes the drug, as mouth coating 85% with only 15% drug deposit in lungs.
  • Dry powder inhalers in existing inhalers are also inefficient as drug particles stick together as large poorly absorbed masses with oral deposit that needs water to swallow with 10%deposit in lungs.
  • the following description gives critical examination of the inhalers known in the art with its shortcomings. Further in order to overcome the problem associated with prior art inhalers, the invention offers the solution to overcome the impediments in the construction and the process of using the inhaler.

  • Us patent 6,116,238 of Jackson is a slider mechanism to unseal the blister pack
  • US patent 6,029,663 of Eisele has a carrier disk with a blister shell sealed by a shear layer. A tab is adhered to the shear layer, underneath the blister shell. An actuator pushes against the tab, causing the shear layer to tear away, releasing the powder drug contents from the blister into the dry powder inhaler.
  • US patent 5,921,237 of Eisele is an inhaler with a blister disc with an actuator.
  • a switch senses pressure in the mouthpiece and switches on a motor spinning an impeller within the aerosolizing chamber .

  • US patent 5,577,497 of Mecikalski has a motor spinning the impeller at high speed & sprays powder ( released by a plunger into the chamber so that all powder particles are aerosolized to form a fine, low-density, low velocity, dry mist.
  • US patent 5,694,920 of Ab rams has a piezoelectric vibrator 54 for vibrating a diaphragm to a powder, and a controller 70 for controlling vibration so as to suspend a portion of powder in a fluidized state.
  • An electrostatic charge plate 32 draws powder of selected particle size into the inhalation stream.
  • Ideal inhaler must release a drug spray with low coating in the mouth. Spray must be of low velocity with longer duration of spray for easy inhalation into lungs.
  • the inhaler comprises of an easy holding pistol shape transparent plastic body with a front narrow longer mouth piece.
  • the needed powder is packed as multi dose blister strip and held in strip channel of the body.

  • This chamber has a small hole to drop the powder in a spray zone.
  • the outside air is pulled through a hole with dust filter in the body for clean air inhalation.
  • the air is channeled as a cone for spray of powder.
  • the spray zone has baffle for the dropping powder and is blown as a mist.
  • the longer mouth piece leads straight to back of throat for lung deposit.

  • the novel inhaler has a pistol shaped plastic body for easy holding with a drug part and a mouthpiece ⁇
  • the body has an air hole with a dust filter.
  • a narrowing cone shaped air chamber with a small hole generates high velocity air.
  • Two or three baffles are placed across this hole and receive the micronized powder.
  • the strip is fitted to a strip channel in the body.
  • the body has a sharp piercing handle to release the powder in to the drug chamber.
  • the mouthpiece is a longer divergent cone that releases the drug spray at the back of mouth without mouth coating.

  • the mouthpiece directs the spray into wind passages and lungs for good effect.
  • the novel inhaler according to the invention is loaded with drug strip, punctured and kept in mouth, air is sucked in through the mouthpiece, and Drug is now released as a soft spray at the back of mouthpiece, which travels to lungs for better effect.
  • the novel inhaler according to invention is better because of deeper inhalation.
  • the long mouth piece releases drug spray into wind passages without mouth coating unlike the short mouth pieces of existing inhalers, which spray the mouth and need larger suction effort as the drug is sucked from a wider mouth piece(difficult for kids and aged) and do not facilitate deep inspiration.
  • the conventional single dose existing powder inhaler fig.4 (a) consists of a transparent body (1) with an air inlet (2) at the top in which the drug capsule (3) is placed.
  • the body has at the other end has a wide short [1.5 cms], tapering mouthpiece (4).
  • the drug capsule is fitted and twisted to break the capsule.
  • the mouth piece (4) is kept in mouth. Air is inhaled. Inhalation is shallow and fast as the mouthpiece area is large with large mouth coating.

  • In fig 4 b is a multi dose inhaler. With a box having the disc (6) with many doses. The disc is pierced by a handle (7) to fall on an area near the short mouth piece (4) for a poor fast inhalation. None has the air dust filter
  • the new inhaler has a plastic transparent body made of two joined parts.
  • the drug in multi dose strip is pierced and falls into a drug chamber. Outside air passing through a dust filter is channeled to a cone with a narrow opening for high velocity spray of powder.

The drug strip is pierced by short sturdy sharp rod (6) that is fitted in a pressing handle (5) working on a fulcrum (14) for easy pressing. The drug falls, through a hole (18)) to a drug chamber (15)of adequate powder volume and with a bottom hole for drug (16).
  • the Body is made as two halves screwed together.
  • This small hole generates a high velocity air flow that sprays the drug as a thin slow, low velocity uniform narrow spray.
  • the mouthpiece (4) is shaped as a long slightly divergent cone, at the front of the body for 2-5 cm.
  • a sliding trap plate (10) is pulled by trigger (11) in the hand part of body releases the powder in inhalation at the jet area.
  • a spring (17) keeps the trap plate closed, the trigger 11 presses the spring to pull the trap plate for free fall of powder from drug chamber (15) to meet the air jet at hole (9) for effective spray.
  • the device gives longer inhalation, does not spray into mouth, directs flow of mist maximally to air passages delivering correct doses, and is safe for children, aged, even- in disorientation fig 3.

  • the blister is pierced by the rod by pressing the handle.
  • the powder falls into the drug chamber through hole (18). Mouthpiece is kept between the lips.
  • the air hole (2) with the dust filter allows clean air to be sucked in inhalation!
  • the trigger 11 is pressed, compressing spring (17) which moves the trap plate (10), allowing the fall of drug through hole (16) of drug chamber.
