INHALER ARTICLE AND MOUTHPIECE FOR USE WITH THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240042144 titled 'INHALER ARTICLE AND MOUTHPIECE FOR USE WITH THE SAME

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes an inhaler device that includes a tubular side wall defining an interior and a longitudinal center axis. The interior of the inhaler serves as a receptacle for holding an inhalable powder. The inhaler also includes a mouthpiece element that extends along the longitudinal center axis from a distal end to a proximal end. The distal end of the mouthpiece element is received inside the interior of the inhaler body. The mouthpiece element consists of a tube that is coaxial with the inhaler body and has a certain diameter. At the distal end of the mouthpiece element, there is a blocker that is coaxial with the tube and has a larger diameter than the tube. Additionally, there is a collector surface comprising a ring that is coaxial with and positioned proximal to the blocker. The ring defines an inner diameter and an outer diameter.

  • The inhaler device has a tubular side wall that holds an inhalable powder.
  • The mouthpiece element extends along the center axis of the inhaler and is received inside the inhaler body.
  • The mouthpiece element includes a tube with a certain diameter.
  • A blocker is located at the distal end of the mouthpiece element and has a larger diameter than the tube.
  • A collector surface with a ring is positioned proximal to the blocker and has an inner and outer diameter.

Potential Applications:

  • This inhaler device can be used for delivering medication in the form of inhalable powder to patients with respiratory conditions such as asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
  • It can be utilized in both clinical and home settings for the treatment of respiratory diseases.

Problems Solved:

  • The inhaler device provides a controlled and efficient delivery of inhalable powder to the user's respiratory system.
  • The blocker and collector surface help prevent the inhalable powder from escaping or being wasted during inhalation.

Benefits:

  • The inhaler device ensures accurate dosing and consistent delivery of medication.
  • It offers ease of use and convenience for patients, allowing them to self-administer medication.
  • The design of the mouthpiece element helps optimize the efficiency of drug delivery and minimize powder loss.



Original Abstract Submitted

an inhaler article has an inhaler body comprising a tubular side wall defining an interior and a longitudinal center axis, the interior forming a receptacle for housing an inhalable powder; a mouthpiece element extending along the longitudinal center axis from a distal end to a proximal end, the distal end of the mouthpiece element being received in the interior of the inhaler body. the mouthpiece element includes a tube extending coaxially with the inhaler body and comprising an interior surface having a first diameter; a blocker disposed at the distal end of the mouthpiece element, coaxial with the tube and having a second diameter that is greater than the first diameter; and a collector surface comprising a ring that is coaxial with and disposed proximal to the blocker, the ring defining an inner diameter and an outer diameter.
