Abstract: A nebulizer with a press-type medicine cup is provided. The nebulizer includes a body, a medicine cup, an engagement structure, and a multi-directional resilient member. The engagement structure includes an inner protruding base and an outer protruding block disposed outside the inner protruding base. The inner protruding base and the outer protruding block extend from the body and the medicine cup. The inner protruding base includes a cavity inside and includes two through holes. The outer protruding block includes two engagement grooves. The multi-directional resilient member is installed in the cavity and includes a press element, two straight resilient arms extend from the press element, two oblique resilient arms are bent from the two straight resilient arms, and each oblique resilient arm has a block member. The two block members are inserted through the two through holes to be engaged with the two engagement grooves.
Abstract: A lightweight modular bed includes a bed frame unit, a first retaining unit, a second retaining unit, a supporting web unit, a vibration motor, and a cover patch. The first and second retaining units are coupled to two lateral portions of the supporting web unit to permit a web body of the supporting web unit to be fully stretched. A peripheral margin of the cover patch is secured to a boundary of a predetermined mounting region of the web body to permit a motor body of the vibration motor to be disposed therebetween. When the web body is fully stretched, top and bottom surfaces of the motor body are brought into abutting engagement with the cover patch and the predetermined mounting region, respectively.
Abstract: An adapter for delivering an atomized spray from a syringe. The adapter includes an adapter guide including a side wall, an interior surface of the side wall defining a through-bore and a shoulder in the through-bore. A pin guide is located in the through-bore. The pin guide includes a seat and a sleeve extending from the seat. A spring positioned around the pin guide sleeve and between the pin guide seat and the shoulder, wherein the spring and the sleeve provide a passageway there between. A pin extends from the pin guide seat and through the passageway. Affixing the adapter onto a syringe provides an atomizing delivery device. A method of dispensing an atomized spray from a syringe is provided by affixing the adapter to the syringe.
