Sinus Rinse Nasal Irrigator adapter for standard PET bottle (PCO 1881 cap) #COVID

thingiverse

This is sinus rinsing nasal irrigator adapter for standard pet bottle (PCO 1881 cap). Sinus rinsing with salt and water can be a beneficial treatment for those with allergies and sinus and nasal diseases. The Russian ministry of healthcare officially recommends sinus rinsing as a preventive measure against coronavirus (COVID-19). There are two versions of STL files: one with supports and the other without supports. I highly recommend printing the version called "Sinus Rinse NO supports". Make sure to create a 10 mm hole in the standard bottle cap. I decided to use a fabric cap because all printed versions were leaking air. You can also use isolation from a standard internet cable as a hose. Hot glue works well for ensuring tightness, but it's not necessary. Watch the manual before using this device. The instructions are available on YouTube in English and Russian: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uNwWjALegDA (EN) and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_YRdDDV0k-Q (RU). Use this device at your own risk. To prepare the solution, mix one teaspoon of NaCl (salt) with 300-500 milliliters of warm water. Special premixed packets are not required; they can be a waste of money. The same device is known in Russia as Dolphin. You can find more information on https://dolphin.ru/.
