Description

Vibration medicine storage unit of powder inhalation dosing device
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of devices for inputting media into human bodies, and particularly relates to an inhalation type drug delivery device for delivering a powder inhalation with a specified dose into the lungs of a patient through an oral cavity along with respiratory airflow.
Background
In modern medical technology, the medicine can directly enter the lung and be absorbed into the blood by oral or nasal inhalation, so that the first-pass effect of the liver is avoided.
Clinically, pulmonary administration is mainly used for treating pulmonary diseases such as asthma, chronic obstructive pneumonia, cystic fibrosis and the like. Due to the characteristics of thin alveolar epithelial cell wall, large surface area, low enzyme metabolic activity and the like, in recent years, a pulmonary administration mode gradually becomes a new way for non-invasive administration of more drugs (such as polypeptide drugs, protein drugs and the like).
In the pulmonary administration mode, the powder aerosol has many advantages compared with the aerosol, such as the problem that the aerosol is matched with a device by a patient in the using process can be avoided, and a propellant is not needed, so that the powder aerosol is the pulmonary inhalation preparation form with the most application prospect at present.
An aerosol refers to a formulation of micronized drug or drug in capsules, vesicles or multi-dose reservoirs with carriers, which is actively inhaled by the patient into the lungs using a specially designed aerosol delivery device or inhalation device (also known as an inhalation delivery device, and also known as a dry powder inhalation device or a dry powder delivery device). The inhalation powder inhalation depends on the autonomous respiration of a patient to enable the medicine powder to enter a respiratory system, and has the characteristics of convenience in carrying, low cost and strong stability. In recent years, the application range of the inhalation aerosol powder has been expanded from the traditional lung local disease therapeutic drug to the systemic administration of polypeptide proteins, antibiotics, biological drugs and cardiovascular system drugs. Especially, some biological macromolecules can achieve ideal bioavailability after inhalation-pulmonary administration of the medicine powder.
The powder aerosol drug delivery device is the core of powder aerosol development, and the quality of the design of the powder aerosol drug delivery device directly influences the lung deposition efficiency of the powder aerosol.
For dry powder aerosol drug delivery devices, there are generally two general categories: single doses and multiple doses, with multiple doses generally being subdivided into blister and reservoir types.
Reservoir-type inhalation drug delivery devices are usually provided with a powder container and a corresponding metering member by means of which the powdered medicament is dispensed from the powder container in successive doses.
One significant problem with the micron-sized powders of powder aerosol delivery devices is that they have poor flow characteristics and the powder particles have a large surface energy and tend to form "clumps" which can present significant difficulties in metering each dose of depot drug.
The applicant previously filed a chinese patent invention with an announcement date of 2015, 2, 18 and an announcement number of CN102218182B, which discloses a vibrating drug delivery device for a dry powder drug delivery device, comprising a housing, a powder storage container, a drug delivery metering assembly and a flow channel member, wherein the flow channel member is sequentially connected with a gas inlet, the drug delivery metering assembly and a suction nozzle; the invention is characterized in that an inverted cone-shaped medicine powder storage container is arranged at the upper part of a shell, a dosing metering component comprising a central rotating shaft and a quantitative medicine feeding disc is arranged below the inverted cone-shaped medicine powder storage container, a raised vibrating tooth is arranged at the outlet of the inverted cone-shaped medicine powder storage container, and a circle of raised teeth are arranged at the vertical height position of the central rotating shaft corresponding to the vibrating tooth; the vibrating teeth are matched with the raised teeth to form a vibrating component which can make the outlet of the inverted cone-shaped medicine powder storage container vibrate. Because the vibration mode of the vibration teeth-the convex teeth is adopted, the vibration dosing unit is arranged at the outlet of the powder storage (namely the inverted cone-shaped medicinal powder storage container), the magnitude of the vibration force or the vibration amplitude is irrelevant to the elastic component and is not influenced by the change of the medicinal powder storage capacity, the function of accurately metering the medicinal powder dose is realized, and the risk of over-metering dosing is avoided.
In the above technical scheme, once the design parameter (the reverse taper angle) of the reverse taper powder storage container is determined, the reverse taper powder storage container can only adapt to the medicine powder within a certain flowability range, and cannot adapt to the medicine powder with worse flowability index parameters. When the physical performance index (usually referring to the fluidity index of the medicine powder) of the filled medicine powder is changed, the metering accuracy of the medicine powder dosage (namely commonly called single dosage) in each administration process can be ensured only by redesigning the mechanical design parameters of the inverted cone-shaped medicine powder storage container and the vibration administration unit, so that the designed and produced powder aerosol administration device can only aim at the medicine powder with a narrow physical property range and does not have good medicine type adaptability and mechanical structure parameter design and adjustment convenience.

Detailed Description
The invention is further illustrated with reference to the following figures and examples.
As can be seen from fig. 1 to 4, the present invention provides a vibrating medicine storage unit of a powder aerosol administration device, the powder aerosol administration device includes a medicine powder storage container and an administration metering assembly arranged in a casing of the administration device, a suction nozzle is arranged outside the casing, a flow passage component is arranged in the casing, and the flow passage component is sequentially connected with an air inlet, the administration metering assembly and the suction nozzle through an air path; the invention is characterized in that:

A spring 13, a vibration gear 12 and a rotary disc 3 are sequentially arranged on the spiral cover, and the spring is sleeved on a central rotating shaft of the vibration gear (see figures 1 and 2).
On the upper end face of the vibration gear, a ring of raised lower vibration teeth 12a (see fig. 1) is provided; on the lower end face of the turntable, a ring of raised upper vibrating teeth 3b (see fig. 2) is provided.
A detent stop 3c (see fig. 2) is provided on the circumference of the turntable.
The upper end face of the rotary table is provided with a plurality of quantitative medicine grooves 3a which are uniformly distributed along the circumference of the rotary table by taking the central shaft of the rotary table as the circle center.
And a lower runner component 5 and an upper runner component 4 are arranged above the turntable, and the lower runner component and the upper runner component are buckled and fixedly connected into a whole to form a complete runner gas circuit.
A medicine powder storage container is provided on the lower flow path member.
The medicine powder storage container includes at least an outer medicine container 14a fixedly attached to the lower flow path member.
The rotary cover, the spring, the vibration gear, the rotary disc and the outer medicine cylinder arranged on the lower component of the flow passage form a vibration medicine storage unit of the powder aerosol administration device.
As a further alternative, an inner cartridge 14 can also be arranged in the outer cartridge, said inner cartridge being nested in said outer cartridge, said inner cartridge being freely movable in said outer cartridge.
The rotary cover, the spring, the vibration gear, the rotary disc and the inner and outer medicine barrels arranged on the lower component of the flow passage form a composite vibration medicine storage unit of the powder inhalation administration device.
In this alternative, the vibrating gear serves as the primary vibrating member and the inner cartridge serves as the secondary vibrating member.
In this alternative, the powder aerosol medicament powder (or called medicament powder) filled in the outer cartridge may be further more fully vibrated by the free movement of the inner cartridge in the outer cartridge.
Since the inner drug cylinder in the outer drug cylinder is not a necessary basic component and belongs to an optional component, in the expression of the technical scheme, except for the specific points, all the other parts related to the vibration drug storage unit of the aerosol drug delivery device can be regarded as common descriptions of the vibration drug storage unit without the inner drug cylinder or the composite vibration drug storage unit with the inner drug cylinder, and are not described separately to avoid repetition.
When the structure of the medicine powder storage container only comprises an outer medicine cylinder fixedly connected to the lower component of the flow channel, the rotary cover, the spring, the vibration gear, the rotary disc and the outer medicine cylinder arranged on the lower component of the flow channel form a vibration medicine storage unit of the powder aerosol administration device; the vibration gear is a main vibration part.
When the structure that the inner medicine cylinder is arranged in the outer medicine cylinder is adopted, the spiral cover, the spring, the vibration gear, the rotary disc and the inner medicine cylinder and the outer medicine cylinder which are arranged on the lower component of the flow passage form a composite vibration medicine storage unit of the powder inhalation medicine feeding device; the vibrating gear serves as a main vibrating part, and the inner medicine cylinder serves as a secondary vibrating part.

In the practical operation process, when the rotary cap 8 rotates along a first rotation direction (counterclockwise from the top view of the powder aerosol administration device) to a certain angle (called as a first rotation angle, such as 60 °), the rotary cap will drive the vibration gear 12 to rotate, at this time, the rotary disk cannot rotate under the limit action of the three pawls 3c arranged on the circumference of the rotary disk, and the vibration gear and the rotary disk generate relative motion (coaxial reverse rotation), because the upper and lower vibration teeth 3b and 12a are respectively arranged on the combined end surface of the vibration gear and the rotary disk, when the relative motion (coaxial reverse rotation) is generated between the vibration gear and the rotary disk, under the elastic force of the spring 13, the two sets of vibration teeth 3b and 12a generate mutual dislocation, so that the vibration gear continuously strikes the rotary disk, and generates a vibration effect, which is transmitted to the outer cartridge located on the lower component of the flow channel through the rotary disk, a first heavy vibration effect is produced.
When the structure of the composite vibration medicine storage unit is adopted, the rotary disc can synchronously transmit the knocking vibration of the vibration gear to the inner medicine cylinder positioned in the outer medicine cylinder while generating a first heavy vibration effect, and the inner medicine cylinder is driven to freely vibrate in the outer medicine cylinder; the synchronous vibration of the inner medicine cylinder produces a second vibration effect, so that the medicine powder in the medicine powder storage container can flow into the quantitative medicine groove more uniformly and stably, and the metering accuracy of the single dose of medicine powder supplied by the medicine powder storage container can be better ensured in each medicine feeding process of the powder inhalation medicine feeding device.
The quantity and the height of the vibration teeth and the elasticity of the spring can be changed to adjust the strength of the whole vibration effect of the medicine storage unit, and the metering accuracy of the medicine powder adding amount is improved.
The dosage metering accuracy of single dose of medicinal powder can be further adjusted and ensured by adjusting the included angle of the bottom edges of the inner and outer medicament cylinders and the mass of the inner medicament cylinder according to the fluidity index of the medicinal powder, so that the powder inhalation drug delivery device has good adaptability to the types of medicinal powder and convenience in design and adjustment of mechanical structure parameters.
In the technical scheme of the invention, the vibrating medicine storage unit is used as a main vibrating part through a vibrating gear to vibrate the medicine powder storage container, and simultaneously, an inner medicine cylinder capable of synchronously and freely vibrating is also arranged in the medicine powder storage container to be used as an auxiliary vibrating part to carry out compound vibration on medicine powder in the medicine powder storage container, so that the metering accuracy of single-dose medicine powder supplied by the whole powder aerosol dosing device is better ensured, the good adaptability of the powder aerosol dosing device to various medicine powder types is increased, and the adverse influence of poor flowability of powder on the dosing accuracy is overcome.
As can be seen from fig. 3, a cartridge cover 15 is provided at the upper end of the outer cartridge, and the turntable, the outer cartridge and the cartridge cover form a closed space in which the inner cartridge can move freely, which may be a longitudinal movement of the inner cartridge along the longitudinal axis of the outer cartridge, a lateral movement of the inner cartridge in the outer cartridge, a combination of a longitudinal and a lateral movement of the inner cartridge in the outer cartridge, or an irregular movement of the inner cartridge in the outer cartridge.
The inner medicine barrel can freely move in the outer medicine barrel, so that the powder inhalation medicine powder (or called medicine powder) filled in the outer medicine barrel can be sufficiently vibrated, and can more uniformly and stably flow into the quantitative medicine groove.
As can be seen from fig. 1, 2 or 4, the spring, the oscillating gear and the turntable are arranged coaxially.
As shown in figures 1 and 2, the tooth tips of the upper and lower vibrating teeth are oppositely arranged to form a unidirectional ratchet wheel rotating pair.
Furthermore, the upper vibrating teeth are annularly and uniformly distributed on the lower end surface of the rotary table by taking the rotation center of the rotary table as the circle center; the lower vibrating teeth are annularly and uniformly distributed on the upper end surface of the vibrating gear by taking the rotating center of the vibrating gear as a circle center.
As shown in fig. 1 and 2, the upper and lower vibrating teeth are unidirectional bevel teeth.
Since the two sets of unidirectional bevel teeth with opposite tooth tips are used for generating impact and knocking vibration, which are common means in mechanical design, the action principle, process and vibration generation mechanism are not described herein.
According to the technical scheme, the runner lower member is subjected to integral knocking type vibration through the turntable, so that a better integral vibration effect can be generated, the requirement on the material strength of the vibration member can be lowered, and the design, the manufacture and the manufacturing cost of a product can be favorably reduced; the main and auxiliary vibrating component structures are adopted to carry out compound vibration on the medicine storage unit, so that the metering accuracy of the medicine powder amount supplied by the medicine storage unit in each administration process of the whole powder inhalation administration device can be better ensured; through the arrangement of the inner medicine cylinder, the workload of mechanical structure design change required by the change of the flowability of the filled medicine powder can be reduced, the good adaptability of the powder inhalation dosing device to a wider range of medicine powder types is increased, and the adverse effect on the dosing accuracy caused by the poor flowability of the powder inhalation dosing device is overcome.
The invention can be widely applied to the design and manufacture fields of powder aerosol administration devices with various specifications.
