Concept

With the conclusion of the Research and Conceptualization phase, we now have a concept to take into the Development phase. And here it is...

Metered Dose Inhaler (MDI) Concept

This design utilises a flexible, collapsible silicone mouthpiece to form a spacer, and tangential inlet vanes to produce a vortex of air, which encapsulates the medication as it is sprayed and guides it cleanly into the mouth. Actuation is done by simply squeezing the main body of the inhaler. 
With this concept, we now begin the Development phase. Expect more info and pictures to come as we refine the design! Next up, test rigs!

Here are some other concepts...

Expandable MDI Concept

Water Bottle Hybrid Concept

This concept combines an MDI with another personal item you might carry at the same time; a water bottle.

The intention with this concept is to make it easier to keep track of your inhaler.
