The innovation lies in that: between the sliding fit surfaces of the needle unloading rod and the injection rod, one is provided with an elastic lug, the other is provided with a blocking surface, and the elastic lug and the blocking surface are positioned on the same sliding path.
In use, in the state before needle removal, the elastic lug and the blocking surface are separated by a certain distance on the sliding path; in the needle unloading state, the needle unloading process is in the following three stages:
the first stage, the needle bar is unloaded in manual propelling movement, unloads the needle working face on the needle bar and acts on the blood taking needle, because of the blood taking needle by the centre gripping on the needle file to the drive is penetrated the pole and is moved forward, stops moving forward when penetrating the pole and being in front end limit position relative to the casing.
And in the second stage, the needle unloading rod is continuously pushed, the needle unloading rod moves forwards relative to the shooting rod, the elastic lug moves in opposite directions with the blocking surface, interference occurs when the distance between the elastic lug and the blocking surface on the sliding path is zero, the needle unloading rod is forced to move forwards relative to the shooting rod to generate pause, the blood taking needle is moved forwards in the needle base after being separated from the original position, and the needle tip of the blood taking needle is exposed from the blood taking end surface to facilitate cap pricking.
And in the third stage, the needle unloading rod is pushed continuously, the elastic lug moves backwards across the blocking surface, and the needle unloading action surface of the needle taking needle on the needle unloading rod is ejected out of the needle seat.
The invention is explained below:
1. in the present invention, the meaning of "forward" in the terms of "forward", "front end", "front part" and "forward" means a direction in which a tip of a lancet is pointed or a shooting direction of the lancet. The meaning of "back" in "back", "rear end", "rear" and "rear" means a direction pointed by the pen tail of the lancet pen or a direction opposite to the direction in which the lancet is shot.
2. In the present invention, the "axial direction" refers to the axial direction of the lancet, and also to the radial direction of the line connecting the tip and the tail of the lancet, or to the front-back direction. The circumferential direction refers to the circumferential direction of the blood sampling pen.
3. In the present invention, the terms "outer edge", "exposed" and "outer side" mean "inner" and "outer". "outer edge" is opposite "inner edge", "outer edge" is opposite "inner side", and "exposed" means exposed on the outer side.
4. In the scheme, the elastic lug is arranged on the sliding matching surface at the side part of the needle unloading rod, and the blocking surface is arranged on the corresponding sliding matching surface of the shooting rod corresponding to the elastic lug; the elastic lug is provided with a yielding space on the needle unloading rod, and the yielding space is positioned in the direction of the yielding blocking surface when the elastic lug interferes with the blocking surface.
The abdicating space can be an abdicating groove arranged on the needle unloading rod, the abdicating groove enables the elastic lug to be positioned on an elastic bridge, and the elastic bridge has elastic capacity in the direction of the abdicating blocking surface.
The abdicating space can also be an abdicating notch arranged on the needle unloading rod, the abdicating notch enables the elastic lug to be positioned on an elastic arm, and the elastic arm has elastic capacity in the direction of the abdicating blocking surface.
The blocking surface is an inclined surface or an arc surface and is formed by local bulges or depressions.
The design principle and the technical concept of the invention are as follows: in order to solve the problem of inconvenient operation caused by the fact that a needle is not pricked when a needle of the existing cap-free blood sampling pen is removed, an elastic lug is arranged on one sliding fit surface between a needle removing rod and a shooting rod, a blocking surface is arranged on the other sliding fit surface, and the elastic lug and the blocking surface are positioned on the same sliding path. Under the needle unloading state, the elastic lug and the blocking surface move in opposite directions along with the forward movement of the needle unloading rod relative to the shooting rod, when the distance between the elastic lug and the blocking surface on a sliding path is zero, the interference occurs, the needle unloading rod is forced to move forward relative to the shooting rod to generate pause, the blood taking needle is moved forward in the needle seat after being separated from the original position, and the needle tip of the blood taking needle is exposed from the blood taking end surface to facilitate the cap pricking. The needle unloading rod is continuously pushed, the elastic lug moves backwards across the blocking surface, and the needle unloading action surface of the blood taking needle on the needle unloading rod is ejected out of the needle seat.
Due to the application of the scheme, compared with the prior art, the invention has the following advantages and effects:
1. in the use of the blood sampling pen, needle removal is a conventional operation, but for a disposable blood sampling needle, a needle tip needs to be pricked into a needle cap after use so as to be discarded, so that other people are not pricked or cross infection is avoided, and the basic safety requirement of the use of the blood sampling pen is met. However, for the cap-removing type blood sampling pen, the pen cap needs to be removed when the needle is removed, the needle point can be directly observed, and the operation of inserting the needle cap is easy to implement. However, for the cap-removal-free blood sampling pen, since the cap is not required to be removed during needle removal, the head and the needle tip of the blood sampling needle cannot be directly observed, and inconvenience is brought to the operation of inserting the needle cap. The invention utilizes the mode that the needle unloading rod and the shooting rod are provided with interference points in the axial sliding path to ensure that the needle unloading rod generates temporary pause relative to the shooting rod in the process of pushing the blood taking needle, the blood taking needle is designed to be separated from the original position in the needle seat during the temporary pause, but not separated from the needle seat, and the needle tip is exposed from the blood taking end face at the moment so as to facilitate the cap pricking operation. The temporary pause in the needle unloading process solves the problems of poor operation stability and inconvenient operation of needle unloading and pricking caps of cap-unloading-free blood sampling pens with better stability and reliability.
2. In the aspect of structural design, an interference structure consisting of an elastic lug and a blocking surface is designed between the sliding matching surfaces of the needle unloading rod and the shooting rod by utilizing the sliding relation between the needle unloading rod and the shooting rod, so that the needle unloading rod is temporarily stopped relative to the shooting rod in the process of pushing the blood taking needle. The invention has reasonable structural design, unique and ingenious technical conception and has prominent substantive characteristics and remarkable progress.
3. The invention aims at the elastic lug and is provided with the abdicating space on the needle unloading rod, and the abdicating space can be designed in an abdicating groove of the needle unloading rod or an abdicating notch of the needle unloading rod. When the yielding space is the yielding groove, the elastic lug can be positioned on one elastic bridge, and the elastic bridge has elastic capacity in the direction of the yielding blocking surface. When the yielding space is a yielding gap, the elastic lug can be positioned on one elastic arm, and the elastic arm has elastic capacity in the direction of the yielding blocking surface. Due to the design of the yielding space, the convex block on the elastic bridge or the elastic arm has good elasticity, and the size of the elastic force can be controlled through the design of the local structural strength of the periphery of the elastic bridge or the elastic arm. Finally, the magnitude of the temporary stopping force can be controlled, so that the controllability of the needle unloading action can be controlled.
4. The invention has better process manufacturability and reliable work, further improves the operating performance of the blood sampling pen, and plays a positive role in the improvement and development of the blood sampling pen.

In this state, the position and distance of the elastic projection 25 and the stopper face 24 are the same as those in the previous state.
After the protective cap of the lancet 5 is twisted off, since the tail handle 10 is still in the initial equilibrium position, if the blood collection puncturing depth is to be adjusted in this state, the tail handle 10 can be rotated to operate.
4. Emission blood sampling state
FIG. 22 is a view showing a state in which a lancet according to an embodiment of the present invention is launched by pressing a button. In this state, the button 23 is pressed to force the shooting rod 6 to unhook, the launching spring 30 pushes the shooting rod 6 and the blood taking needle 5 to move forward, the reset spring 29 is firstly compressed when the shooting rod 6 and the blood taking needle 5 move forward and launch, then the active striking surface 7 at the rear part of the shooting rod 6 is in striking fit with the passive striking surface 13 on the sleeve structure of the tail handle 10 to stop the shooting rod 6 from launching forward, and the blood taking needle 5 launches the puncture.

5. Recovering to natural state
FIG. 23 is a view showing the recovery of the natural state of the blood after the blood is collected by the blood collecting pen of the embodiment of the present invention. It can be seen from figure 23 that the shoot lever 6 returns to its initial position under the influence of the return spring 29.
In this state, the elastic projection 25 is spaced from the blocking surface 24 by a distance greater than the cocked state because the firing of the firing rod 6 is restored to nature.
After blood collection, if the blood collection amount is insufficient or no blood is collected due to insufficient puncture depth, the tail handle 10 is still in the initial balance position, and if the blood collection puncture depth needs to be adjusted in the state, the tail handle 10 can be rotated to realize the blood collection.
6. Initial loading state by tail handle
FIG. 24 is a view showing an initial loading state of the lancet according to the embodiment of the present invention by using the tail handle. In this state, the exposed part of the rear part of the tail handle 10 is pulled back manually, the sleeve structure of the tail handle 10 overcomes the elastic force of the return spring 29 and moves axially backwards relative to the shell 17, at this time, the tail handle 10 leaves the initial balance position, the guide lug 15 and the guide groove 14 between the tail handle 10 and the shell 17 are changed from the original staggered arrangement (in a non-matching working state) in the axial direction of the blood sampling pen to the overlapped arrangement in the axial direction of the blood sampling pen and are in a matching working state, at this time, the tail handle 10 cannot rotate relative to the shell 17. In other words, during the backward axial movement of the tail handle 10, the guide groove 14 between the outer edge of the tail handle 10 and the inner edge of the housing 17 is slidably engaged with the guide projection 15 and plays a guiding role in the axial direction of the lancet, and the tail handle 10 is constrained by the sliding engagement of the guide groove 14 and the guide projection 15, so that the freedom of circumferential rotation of the tail handle 10 relative to the housing is lost, and the tail handle cannot rotate but axially slides.
7. Loading state of tail handle
FIG. 25 is a view showing a state in which a lancet is loaded with a catch according to an embodiment of the present invention. Pulling the tail handle 10 continuously on the basis of the former state, after overcoming the elastic force of the launching spring 30, forcing the passive striking surface 13 to contact with the active striking surface 7 at the rear part of the shooting rod 6 and driving the shooting rod 6 to move backwards relative to the shell 17 until the shooting rod 6 is loaded and locked.
8. After the completion of loading the tail handle
FIG. 26 is a view showing a state after loading with a tail handle is completed in the embodiment of the lancet according to the present invention. After the tail handle 10 is pulled backwards manually to drive the shooting rod 6 to be loaded and locked, the tail handle 10 is released, and under the action of the elastic force of the return spring 29, the tail handle 10 moves forwards axially relative to the shell 17 until the tail handle 10 is in the initial balance position again. At this time, the guide projection 15 and the guide groove 14 between the tail handle 10 and the housing 17 are overlapped in the axial direction of the lancet, and are restored to the staggered arrangement state in the axial direction of the lancet. In this state, since the tail handle 10 is still in the initial equilibrium position, if it is desired to adjust the blood sampling piercing depth, it is possible to operate the tail handle 10 by rotating. Therefore, the tail handle 10 is manually pulled backwards from the initial balance position of the tail handle 10, so that the guide lug 15 and the guide groove 14 between the tail handle 10 and the shell 17 can be switched between the non-fit working state and the fit working state.
In this condition, the position and distance of the resilient projection 25 and the stop face 24 are the same as in the previous point 2 needle loading condition.
9. Initial state of needle removal (first stage of needle removal)
FIG. 27 is a view showing an initial state of needle removal by pushing the needle-removing pushing handle according to the embodiment of the lancet device of the present invention. When the needle-removing pushing handle 22 is pressed, the needle-removing acting surface 33 at the front end of the needle-removing rod 27 butts against the end surface of the tail part of the blood taking needle 5 to move forwards, and the blood taking needle 5 is clamped by the needle seat 31, so that the shooting rod 6 is driven to move forwards, and the shooting rod 6 stops moving forwards until the active impact surface 7 at the tail part of the shooting rod 6 contacts with the passive impact surface 13 on the tail handle 10. At this point the first stage of the needle removal process is complete.
10. Needle-off pause state (needle-off second stage)
FIG. 28 is a view showing a state that the needle is stopped by pushing the needle-pushing handle according to the embodiment of the lancet device of the present invention. As can be seen, as the needle discharging rod 27 is pushed continuously, the needle discharging rod 27 moves forwards relative to the firing rod 6, the elastic lug 25 moves towards the blocking surface 24, and when the distance between the elastic lug 25 and the blocking surface 24 on the sliding path is zero (see figures 16 and 17), the needle discharging rod 27 is forced to move forwards relative to the firing rod 6 to produce a pause, and the blood taking needle 5 moves forwards in the needle seat 31 out of the original position, and the needle tip of the blood taking needle 5 is exposed from the blood taking end surface 3 to facilitate cap pricking. At this point the second stage of the needle removal process is complete.
11. Needle-unloading ejecting state (needle-unloading third stage)
FIG. 29 is a view showing a state in which a lancet is ejected by pressing the needle-removing push handle according to the embodiment of the lancet device of the present invention. As can be seen, the needle-removing rod 27 is pushed further, the elastic lug 25 moves back over the blocking surface 24, and the blood collection needle 5 is ejected from the needle seat 31 by the needle-removing action surface 33 on the needle-removing rod 27. At this point, the third stage of the needle removal process is completed.
12. Resume the initial state
FIG. 30 is a view showing the lancet of the present invention returned to its initial state after the needle is removed. As can be seen from the figure, the lancet 5 is automatically dropped from the cap 1 by gravity after being completely ejected by the needle removing rod 27, and the shooting rod 6 is restored to the initial position.
With respect to the above embodiments, possible variations of the present invention are described below:
1. in the above embodiment, the needle discharging rod 27 and the needle discharging push handle 22 constitute a tail needle discharging structure. The invention is not limited to the structure, and the needle unloading pause structure is also suitable for the blood sampling pen with the side needle unloading structure. As would be understood and accepted by those skilled in the art.
2. In the above embodiments, the contents of the present invention are described by taking a cap-removal-free needle-type blood sampling pen as an example. However, the invention is not limited to the structure, and the needle-dismounting pause structure can also be used for the needle-dismounting blood sampling pen. As would be understood and accepted by those skilled in the art.
3. In the above embodiment, the relief space 26 is a relief groove provided in the needle bar 27, and the relief groove allows the elastic projection 25 to be located on an elastic bridge (see fig. 9) having an elastic capability in the direction of the relief blocking surface 24. However, the invention is not limited thereto, and the relief space 26 can be designed as a relief notch in the needle removing rod 27, which relief notch allows the elastic projection 25 to be located on an elastic arm having an elastic capacity in the direction of the relief blocking surface 24. As would be understood and accepted by those skilled in the art.
4. In the above embodiment, the blocking surface 24 is a slope or a cambered surface (see fig. 6), and the blocking surface 24 is formed by a local protrusion. However, the invention is not limited thereto, and blocking surface 24 may also be formed by a local depression.
5. In the above embodiment, the guide groove 14 is provided on the inner edge of the outer case 17 (see fig. 12), and the guide projection 15 is provided on the outer edge of the tail tab 10 (see fig. 11). However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and the guide groove 14 may be provided on the outer edge of the tail tab 10 and the guide projection 15 may be provided on the inner edge of the outer case 17. As would be understood and accepted by those skilled in the art. In addition, the guide projection 15 may be changed to a guide rib or a guide protrusion structure.
6. In the above embodiment, in the present embodiment, the axial stopper surface 4 is provided on the housing 17 (see fig. 12), and the stopper action portion 19 is provided on the tail tab 10 (see fig. 10). However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and both may be provided at other portions of the tail grip 10 and the housing 17. For example, the rear end surface of the rotation limiting rib 20 inside the housing 17 facing the rear of the lancet is engaged with the front end surface of the inner sleeve 9 of the tail handle 10 facing the front of the lancet, so that the axial limiting surface 4 and the limiting part 19 can be replaced, and the effect of limiting the front end of the tail handle 10 can be achieved.
7. In the above embodiment, the passive striking surface 13 is a spiral step surface facing the rear of the lancet on the sleeve structure of the tail handle 10 (see fig. 10). The invention is not limited thereto and the passive impingement surface 13 may also be a helicoid or a ramp. As would be understood and accepted by those skilled in the art.
8. In the above embodiment, the rotation positioning slot 11 is disposed on the outer edge of the tail portion of the middle sleeve 11 (see fig. 3), and the rotation positioning block 12 is disposed on the inner edge of the inner sleeve 9 (see fig. 10), which cooperate to form a rotation positioning structure. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and on the one hand, the rotary positioning slot 11 and the rotary positioning block 12 can be exchanged, that is, the rotary positioning block 12 is disposed on the outer edge of the tail portion of the middle sleeve 11, and the rotary positioning slot 11 is disposed on the inner edge of the inner sleeve 9. On the other hand, the rotation positioning slot 11 and the rotation positioning block 12 can be arranged at other positions of the tail handle 10 and the shell 17 instead. For example, the rotation positioning slot 11 is provided on the outer edge of the outer sleeve 8, and the rotation positioning block 12 is provided on the inner edge of the outer shell 17.
9. In the above embodiment, the cap 1 is located at the front of the housing 17 and is detachably and fixedly connected with the housing 17 (see fig. 19). However, the present invention is not limited to this, the pen cap 1 and the housing 17 may be designed as an integral structure, the needle outlet hole at the front end of the pen cap 1 is designed as a large hole, the blood collection needle 5 may be directly inserted into the needle base 31 through the large hole at the front end, and the blood collection needle 5 may be directly removed from the large hole at the front end when the needle is removed. The design can avoid the action of disassembling the pen cap 1 during needle installation and simplify the operation. The other situation is that the pen cap 1 is located at the front part of the shell 17 and is detachably and fixedly connected with the shell 17, but a pinhole at the front end of the pen cap 1 is designed to be a small hole, when a needle is installed, the pen cap 1 needs to be firstly detached, and then the blood taking needle 5 is inserted into the needle seat 31.
10. In the above embodiment, in the state where the tail handle 10 is in the initial equilibrium position, the guide projection 15 and the guide groove 14 between the tail handle 10 and the housing 17 are arranged in a staggered manner in the axial direction of the lancet, and are in the non-fitting working state. In this operating state, the depth of penetration during blood collection can be adjusted by turning the tail handle 10. However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and the position allowing the adjustment of the piercing depth is not necessarily arranged at the position where the tail grip 10 is initially balanced, but may be arranged at a position where the tail grip 10 is pulled axially for a certain distance, that is, the tail grip 10 is pulled backwards for a certain distance and then enters the position allowing the adjustment of the piercing depth (in this case, the guide projection 15 and the guide groove 14 are arranged in a staggered manner in the axial direction of the lancet). Of course, it is more reasonable to arrange the tail handle 10 in the initial equilibrium position, which will allow the position of the adjustment of the puncture depth, and the puncture depth can be adjusted at any time as long as the tail handle 10 is in the initial equilibrium position, regardless of whether the blood needle is loaded or not, or whether the blood needle is loaded or not.
11. In the above embodiment, the active striking surface 7 is provided on the side of the rear portion of the shooting rod 6. The invention is not limited to this and the active striking surface 7 can be designed on the lancet 5.
12. In the above embodiment, the guide groove 14 is a straight groove. The invention is not limited to this, and besides the straight groove, a groove type such as a spiral groove, a wave groove, a skewed groove, etc. can be adopted, but the straight groove is the best design.
13. In the above embodiment, the puncturing depth adjusting mechanism is formed by the cooperation of the active striking surface 7 at the rear part of the shooting rod 6 and the passive striking surface 13 on the sleeve structure of the tail handle 10, wherein the passive striking surface 13 is a spiral step surface or a spiral surface or an inclined surface which is arranged on the sleeve structure of the tail handle 10 and faces the rear part of the blood sampling pen. The present invention is not limited to this, and for example, a sliding sleeve (not shown) is provided for the tail handle 10, and the sliding sleeve is connected to the housing 17 in a positioning manner in the circumferential direction of the lancet and is connected to the housing in a sliding manner in the axial direction of the lancet. The sliding sleeve is positioned in the shell 17 in an assembly state, a guide rib is arranged on the inner wall of the shell 17, a guide groove is arranged on the outer wall of the sliding sleeve, and the guide rib is matched with the guide groove to enable the sliding sleeve to only slide along the axial direction of the blood sampling pen relative to the shell 17 and cannot rotate around the axis. The tail handle 10 is connected with the sliding sleeve through a screw pair, so that an axial moving mechanism of the sliding sleeve, which is adjusted by the rotation of the tail handle 10, is formed. The passive impact surface 13 is an inner end surface of the sliding sleeve. The spiral pair is formed by matching a spiral groove and a driving block, one of the spiral groove and the driving block is arranged on the tail handle 10, and the other is arranged on the sliding sleeve. This results in the passive striking surface 13 being formed indirectly on the tail tab 10 by the screw action surface, whereas the passive striking surface 13 in the above embodiment is formed directly on the tail tab 10 by the screw action surface.
The above embodiments are merely illustrative of the technical ideas and features of the present invention, and the purpose thereof is to enable those skilled in the art to understand the contents of the present invention and implement the present invention, and not to limit the protection scope of the present invention. All equivalent changes and modifications made according to the spirit of the present invention should be covered within the protection scope of the present invention.
