KR-20260063866-A - Infant medication dropper
Abstract
The present invention relates to a medicine dropper for infants. Specifically, as a medication dropper for oral administration to infants, it is designed to allow the dosage to be accurately determined by marking the outer surface, prevents throat punctures despite being in the form of a dropper, and facilitates internal cleaning. Furthermore, the invention relates to a dropper for administering medicine to infants, which allows for securing space during administration by separating the administration end into two branches, thereby ensuring safety even if the medicine is vomited up during administration.

Claims (5)
- As a dropper (10), The lid (11) is configured to be coupled to the coupling part (12), and The dropper body part (13) is integrally extended downward from the above-mentioned connecting part (12), and A branching portion (14) branched in two directions downward from the above dropper body portion (13) is integrally extended, A medicine dropper for infants, characterized in that the branching section (14) is branched in two directions, including a first branching section (141) and a second branching section (142), and a discharge section (15) is formed at the end of each branching section.
- In claim 1, The lid (11) is configured to be detachably attached to the coupling part (12), thereby, A medicine dropper for infants characterized by the introduction of medicine into the dropper (10) and easy internal cleaning.
- In claim 1, The above lid (11) is coupled with an attachment part (20) configured in a predetermined plate shape, and A dropper for infants, characterized in that a character image is attached to the attachment part (20) to attract the attention of infants during administration.
- In claim 1, A dropper for administering medicine to infants, characterized in that a discharge hole (151) is formed on one side of the discharge portion (15).
- In claim 1, The above branching section (14) is, As the first branch (141) and the second branch (142) enter the infant's mouth and are directed toward both sides of the inside of the mouth, the medicine is prevented from concentrating on the tongue, and A dropper for administering medicine to infants, characterized in that the first branch (141) and the second branch (142) are split into two branches to secure a certain space inside the baby's mouth, so even if infants vomit up medicine, the space where the medicine is administered is separate from the space where the medicine is administered, thereby preventing the mixing of the administration of medicine and the discharge of vomit, and thus preventing the vomit from going down the infant's esophagus.
Description
Infant medication dropper The present invention relates to a medicine dropper for infants. Specifically, as a medication dropper for oral administration to infants, it is designed to allow the dosage to be accurately determined by marking the outer surface, prevents throat punctures despite being in the form of a dropper, and facilitates internal cleaning. Furthermore, the invention relates to a dropper for administering medicine to infants, which allows for securing space during administration by separating the administration end into two branches, thereby ensuring safety even if the medicine is vomited up during administration. With the advancement of medicine, medicinal substances capable of treating human diseases have been developed, and these substances are being administered to the human body in various ways. In particular, the primarily used method of administration is oral administration, which is a method of administering medicinal materials through the mouth. However, the mouth is an organ capable of sensing various tastes, and since medicine is generally bitter, it is natural to feel a bitter taste when administered orally. In addition, while medicinal ingredients are distributed as standard pills, for the elderly, patients, or infants who have difficulty swallowing pills, the pills are broken into powder and mixed with water or syrup for administration. In this case, compared to pills that simply go down the throat, the medicine stays in the mouth for a longer time, allowing you to fully experience its bitter taste. Therefore, parents and guardians face significant difficulties whenever administering medicine, especially to infants. Although sweet ingredients are included in syrups to help alleviate this somewhat, there are limitations in masking the medicine's characteristic bitter taste, and Infants, in particular, cannot take medication in a single dose of typically 20 to 50 milliliters, so it is divided into several doses; however, it is quite difficult to detect that it is medication from the moment it is administered into the mouth and to administer the next dose. Apart from feeding, most infants who reject the bitter taste are forced to vomit it up, which can lead to problems such as vomiting the medicine. In particular, if the child vomits up during the administration of medication, not only is the drug's effectiveness diminished, but the mixing of refluxed and administered medication can also lead to problems such as blocking the infant's airway or esophagus. Therefore, the applicant intends to propose a dropper structure capable of administering medication to existing infants. In this regard, Korean Patent Publication No. 10-2002-0027137 describes a medicine bottle for administration. The above technology is a medicine bottle that administers an accurate dosage of liquid medicine, particularly for infants or children, by utilizing air pressure directly within the bottle. However, these medicine bottles have not overcome the problems previously presented. Accordingly, a spoon-shaped medication tool has also been developed, an example being the multi-purpose measuring spoon disclosed in Published Utility Model Publication No. 20-1998-0032674. The above technology is a measuring container having a spoon-shaped device on the top, which allows for easy measurement of liquid or powder when administering it to a person by using the spoon-shaped device as a funnel to pour it into the container, and after measuring an appropriate amount, the container is tilted to easily administer the contents that have flowed out onto the spoon with the spoon. In order to improve upon the problems of conventional methods, where measuring is difficult and dispensing is not possible using a measuring container, the aforementioned functions are integrated by combining a spoon and a measuring container to resolve these drawbacks. Furthermore, the structure features a sturdy base to prevent spillage when a container with contents is temporarily placed on a flat surface, and a space formed at the bottom of the spoon to store any spilled contents.
