Definitions
- the invention relates to an inhalation device with a
- a known inhalation device EP 0 559 971 A1
- the cover is provided with an essentially central opening and several openings arranged in a ring around the central opening.
- the inhalation agent is arranged there close below the lid openings and is vaporized during inhalation by the air flow generated during suction and entering the vessel through the holes.
- the resulting mixture of air and inhalant is inhaled by the user through the central opening.
- This known device has proven itself. It works practically with hand warmth and / or ambient temperature. A temperature considered favorable for evaporation, which is the same as or higher than body temperature, is brought about or maintained over a longer period of time by the container being double-walled and filled with heat-containing agents.
- the invention has for its object to provide a novel inhalation device, the evaporation properties of which are further improved. This object is achieved by the invention described in claim 1. Further developments of the invention are defined in the subclaims.
- the invention consists in that the evaporation is carried out in a temperature range between 38 ° C and 65 °, preferably between 38 ° and 50 ° C. Evaporation of the water is thereby achieved, in which small water particles are generated for the steam, which entrain small particles of the inhalation agent when they move, in particular when they rise. These small ⁇ * particles are inhaled as a mixture and penetrate deep into the airways. This is extremely desirable, for example, for asthma treatment.
- the inhalation device can be used not only for preventive or healing inhalation, as with the known device described at the beginning, but also for the medical treatment of diseases such as asthma Use of aerosols common.
- the amount of the inhalant required in each case, together with a liquid, in particular water, is exposed to a heat of essentially 38 ° C. to 50 ° C., in which the water with a small particle size evaporates or evaporates, allowing the inhalation particles to penetrate deep into the airways.
- the mixture of evaporating or evaporating water and inhalation agent, which rises due to the heating in the vessel, is mixed with the fresh air entering through the holes during suction and supplied to the airways.
- the construction of the container is so made that the cold air entering by inhalation in the container may not significantly affect the evaporation temperature.
- this is achieved by arranging the water and the inhalation agent spatially on the side opposite the lid, the bottom region of the vessel. The cold air flow sucked through the openings into the vessel during inhalation cannot therefore sweep over the inhalation agent and lower the vaporization temperature.
- this is achieved in that the suction nozzle penetrating the cover for the inhalation of the inhalation mixture leads into the area in which the water and the inhalation agent are arranged, and therefore sucks up the evaporated mixture near the evaporation point.
- the fresh air which is also drawn in, enters through holes in the upper part of the nozzle, is swirled there with the mixture and therefore cannot influence the temperature for the evaporation or evaporation of the mixture.
- the water and the inhalation agent are sucked up in a finest distribution by means of a sponge, the construction of which makes it permeable to air through a large number of pores.
- This sponge is arranged at a distance from the side walls and the bottom of the vessel so that the sucked-in fresh air first sweeps along the heated vessel walls and then penetrates through the sponge from the outside, together with the vaporized mixture into the sponge interior connected to the suction nozzle arrives and from this through the intake manifold to the user.
- the sponge is attached to the intake manifold.
- the sponge can, however, also be carried by a flat carrier with a handle arranged perpendicular to its surface, which extends to the lid when a carrier is inserted into the vessel. The top of the carrier then faces the mixture swirling space between the carrier and the lid.
- a sponge or the like is arranged between the bottom of the vessel and the carrier, preferably attached to the carrier.
- the inhalation agent can be arranged or applied on the top of the carrier in order to dissolve there under the action of the water vapor and to be carried away in particles by the evaporated water particles rising upwards.
- a vessel has proven itself in which the inhalant has been arranged below the sponge on the bottom of the vessel.
- the sponge filled with hot water When the sponge filled with hot water is inserted into the vessel, the sponge is pressed against the bottom of the vessel and partially absorbs the dissolved inhalant when it is relieved. Because of the better use of heat near the ground, the evaporation of the water can be carried out in the optimal temperature range. This means that the particles of the inhalant are entrained in a fine distribution by the water particles.
- the vessel is rinsed with boiling water for disinfection, the sponge of the carrier is filled with hot water and the bottom and / or top of the carrier with the required amount of inhalation provided agent.
- the carrier is inserted into the vessel by means of the handle, the sponge is pressed against the bottom of the vessel by means of the handle, and the vessel is closed with the lid.
- the handle can be hollow and can be provided with suction openings at its end facing the carrier.
- the handle with the connecting piece penetrating the cover can consist of one piece, the cover being closed in the end position of the handle-carrier-sponge construction, e.g. is screwed.
- the handle at its upper opening is a connector for a corresponding connector of the nozzle.
- the connection is established at the same time.
- the fresh air drawn in through the cover openings enters the airway through additional openings in the handle and / or through a non-sealing connection between the nozzle and the handle.
- the fresh air drawn in can only enter this nozzle via the sponge and the bottom opening of the nozzle.
- the nozzle can be closed above the sponge, so no fresh air can be drawn in there.
- the wall of the vessel can now be warmed or heated in several different ways. It can be filled as a double wall with hot water or another suitable hot liquid. It can be heated electrically. It can be used in a heater.
- the temperature can be set or set so that on the one hand the evaporation takes place at the optimal temperature. However, it can also heat the mixture that has already been generated by evaporation and that is generated with cold, sucked-in fresh air so that it is supplied to the airways at the optimal temperature.
- the temperature in the interior of the vessel between the bottom of the vessel and the swirling space is such that a temperature between 50 ° and 38 °, on average -45 ° is maintained.
- the cold fresh air drawn in can be warmed up before it is swirled with the steam when it is brushed along the wall of the vessel.
- the handle of the carrier can be designed on its outside and / or inside in a flow-favorable manner in such a way that the rising vapors are optimally mixed with the inflowing air, for example as a rod tapering towards the top with a spherical end or as a nozzle with an enlarging shape upwards Diameter "A particular advantage of the device according to the invention is its environmental compatibility.” It enables the inhalation agents to penetrate deeply into the respiratory tract, which until now could only be achieved through the use of aerosols, that is, through containers with fine atomization from the CFCs that are undesirable today «
