Abstract
A blister pack tool for piercing a blister pack and removing a dosage unit from the blister pack. The blister pack tool comprises a handle and a head. The head of the blister pack tool includes a bowl section for holding a removed dosage unit, a guideway for directing the removed dosage unit into the bowl section, and a piercing tip for piercing the blister pack and removing the dosage unit from the blister pack.
Claims
- 1. A blister pack tool for opening blister packaging to remove a dosage unit comprising:
a handle; anda head including a guiding section and a bowl section;
wherein the handle is connected to the head;wherein the handle includes a first end and a second end, wherein the handle is designed to taper from the first end to the second end, wherein the second end is connected to the head;wherein the guiding section includes a distal end and a proximal end, wherein the guiding section further includes a piercing tip positioned on the distal end;wherein the bowl section includes a capture area and a bowl wall;wherein the piercing tip is connected to the bowl section via a guideway; andwherein the bowl section is operable to receive the removed dosage unit via the guideway.
- 2. The blister pack tool of claim 1, wherein the handle is a triangular shape.
- 3. The blister pack tool of claim 1, wherein the guideway tapers from the bowl section to the piercing tip.
- 4. The blister pack tool of claim 1, wherein the guideway further includes at least one guide wall, wherein the at least one guide wall is designed to keep the removed dosage unit in the guideway.
- 5. The blister pack tool of claim 1, wherein the guideway is a curved shape.
- 6. The blister pack tool of claim 1, wherein the bowl section is a spherical shape.
- 7. The blister pack tool of claim 1, wherein the guideway includes a sloped surface, wherein the guideway is designed for the removed dosage unit to slidably move from the piercing tip to the bowl section via the guideway.
- 8. A blister pack tool for opening a blister on a blister pack and removing a dosage contained within the blister pack, wherein the blister pack tool comprises:
a handle; anda head;
wherein the head comprises a bowl section and a guiding section, wherein the bowl section is connected to the guiding section;
wherein the bowl section is designed to hold the removed dosage unit from the blister pack; andwherein the guiding section comprises a guideway and a piercing tip; wherein the guideway has a distal end and a proximal end, wherein the proximal end is attached to the bowl section; andwherein the piercing tip is positioned at the distal end of the guideway, wherein the piercing tip is operable to pierce the blister pack.
- 9. The blister pack tool of claim 8, wherein the guiding section is tapered from the proximal end to the distal end, wherein the distal end is narrower than the proximal end.
- 10. The blister pack tool of claim 8, wherein the bowl section comprises a flat surface and a guide wall, wherein the guide wall surrounds the flat surface, wherein, after receiving the removed dosage unit, the bowl section is designed to position the removed dosage unit on the flat surface.
- 11. The blister pack tool of claim 8, wherein the bowl section includes an exterior and an interior, wherein the interior of the bowl section is spherically shaped.
- 12. The blister pack tool of claim 8, wherein the guideway includes a sloped surface, wherein the guideway is designed for the removed dosage unit to slidably move along the guideway from the piercing tip to the bowl section.
- 13. A blister pack tool for opening blister packaging to remove a dosage unit comprising:
a handle; anda head including a guiding section and a bowl section;
wherein the handle is connected to the head;wherein the handle includes a first end and a second end, wherein the handle is designed to taper from the first end to the second end, wherein the second end is connected to the head;wherein the guiding section includes a proximal end and distal end, wherein the proximal end is connected to the bowl section, wherein the guiding section further includes a piercing tip positioned on the distal end;wherein the piercing tip is connected to the bowl section via a guideway;wherein the guideway includes a sloped surface;wherein the bowl section is operable to receive the removed dosage unit via the guideway; andwherein the bowl section includes a capture area to receive the removed dosage unit.
- 14. The blister pack tool of claim 13, wherein the guiding section is tapered from the proximal end to the distal end, wherein the distal end is narrower than the proximal end.
- 15. The blister pack tool of claim 13, wherein the capture area includes a flat surface and a guide wall, wherein the guide wall surrounds the flat surface, wherein, after receiving the removed dosage unit, the bowl section is designed for the removed dosage unit to lay on the flat surface.
- 16. The blister pack tool of claim 13, wherein the guideway further includes a first side including a first guide wall and a second side including a second guide wall, wherein the first guide wall and the second guide wall are designed to align the removed dosage unit along the guideway to the bowl section.
- 17. The blister pack tool of claim 13, wherein the bowl section is a cylindrical shape.
- 18. The blister pack tool of claim 13, wherein the handle is a triangular shape.
- 19. The blister pack tool of claim 13, wherein the sloped surface of guideway includes a curved shape.
- 20. The blister pack tool of claim 13, wherein the handle further includes a cushion.
