Abstract
A nebuliser device with a vibrating mesh, for administering medicaments, includes a casing, a nozzle, a nebuliser and a chamber that houses a medicament. The chamber housing a medicament is a disposable capsule forming an independent body that can be extracted from the casing of the device. The disposable capsule includes a connector for attaching to the nebuliser and to the casing. The connector allow the disposable capsule to be coupled to the nebuliser device or uncoupled therefrom.
Claims18
A nebulizer device for administering medicaments, comprising:
- a casing,
- a nozzle,
- a nebulizer configured to be arranged in the casing, and
- a disposable capsule, the disposable capsule forming a chamber that houses a liquid medicament, and forming an independent body that can be coupled to and uncoupled from the casing,
- wherein the nebulizer comprises a piezoelectric device and a vibrating mesh actuated by the piezoelectric device, and a punch with a cutting geometry on an end thereof configured to perforate an outer seal or inner seal of the disposable capsule, and
- wherein the punch is hollow to allow the liquid medicament in the chamber to flow through the punch towards the mesh of the nebulizer.
A nebulizer device for administering medicaments, comprising:
- a casing,
- a nozzle, and
- a nebulizer,
- wherein the nebulizer comprises a piezoelectric device and a vibrating mesh actuated by the piezoelectric device, and the nebulizer device further comprises a punch with a cutting geometry on an end thereof configured to perforate an outer seal of a disposable capsule which houses a liquid medicament, and forms an independent body that can be coupled to and uncoupled from the casing, and
- wherein the punch is hollow to allow the liquid medicament of the disposable capsule to flow through the punch towards the mesh of the nebulizer.
A nebulizer device for administering medicaments, comprising:
- a casing,
- a nozzle, and
- a nebulizer, wherein the nebulizer comprises a piezoelectric device and a vibrating mesh actuated by the piezoelectric device,
- wherein the casing is configured to receive a disposable capsule housing a liquid medicament, and the nebulizer device further comprises a hollow punch with a cutting geometry on an end thereof such that the hollow punch perforates an outer seal of the disposable capsule, and the liquid medicament of the disposable capsule flows through the punch towards the mesh of the nebulizer when the disposable capsule is coupled to the casing.
