Detailed Description
Reference will now be made in detail to various embodiments of the invention, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings and described below. While the invention will be described in conjunction with the exemplary embodiments, it will be understood that the present description is not intended to limit the invention to these exemplary embodiments. On the contrary, the invention is intended to cover not only these exemplary embodiments, but also various alternatives, modifications, equivalents and other embodiments, which may be included within the spirit and scope of the invention as defined by the appended claims.
A lancing device according to an embodiment of the present invention is described below with reference to fig. 1 to 13.
As shown in fig. 1, the lancing device according to the embodiment of the present invention includes: base 100, plunger 200, linkage 300, and bottle holder 400.
The base 100 has an upwardly open first receiving cavity 101, a first guide 103 is provided on a side wall of the first receiving cavity 101 near a first end 102 of the base 100, and a second end 104 of the base 100 is provided with a spike 105 (see fig. 2 for cooperation).
The first end 201 of the plunger 200 is pivotally connected to the first end 102 of the base 100.
The first end 301 of the linkage 300 is pivotally connected to the plunger 200 at a location proximate to the first end 201 of the plunger 200.
The first end 401 of the vial holder 400 is provided with a second guide 402, the second guide 402 being pivotably and movably connected to the first guide 103, the second end 403 of the vial holder 400 being pivotably connected to the second end 302 of the linkage 300. The bottle holder 400 is used for mounting a device to be pierced with high pressure gas. For example, the device to be pierced may be a gas bottle 500 containing high pressure carbon dioxide, and in the latter embodiment, the device to be pierced is described by taking the gas bottle 500 as an example.
Wherein, when the pressing lever 200 rotates from the first position (i.e., the position of fig. 4) to the second position (i.e., the position of fig. 1) in the first rotation direction (i.e., the counterclockwise direction in fig. 1 to 4) around the first end 102 of the base 100, the pressing lever 200 drives the bottle holder 400 to move along the first guide 103 by the link 300 and then rotate (i.e., rotate upward) around the second guide 402 in the first rotation direction (i.e., the counterclockwise direction in fig. 1 to 4) such that the second end 403 of the bottle holder 400 leaves the first receiving chamber 101.
When the pressing lever 200 rotates in a second rotational direction (i.e., clockwise in fig. 1 to 4) about the first end 102 of the base 100 from the second position (i.e., the position of fig. 1) to the first position (i.e., the position of fig. 4), the pressing lever 200 rotates (i.e., rotates downward) about the second guide 402 in the second rotational direction (i.e., clockwise in fig. 1 to 4) by the link 300, so that the second end 403 of the bottle holder 400 enters the first receiving chamber 101 and then moves along the first guide 103.
In the invention, under the cooperation of the first guide part 103 and the second guide part 402, the second end 403 of the bottle seat 400 is driven by the compression bar 200 and the connecting rod 300 to enter or leave the first accommodating cavity 101 of the base 100, so that the device to be punctured filled with high-pressure gas can be conveniently installed and disassembled.
The second end 104 of the base 100 is provided with a first connection port 115 (see fig. 2 for a fitting), the first connection port 115 being connected to an external device requiring a high pressure gas source via a first line (not shown). The spike 105 has a gas communication channel 116 (see fig. 9) inside, the gas communication channel 116 is communicated to the first connection port 115, when the spike 105 is in contact with the spike 500, the spike 105 can puncture the spike 500 under a certain pressure, and the gas in the spike 500 can flow into the first connection port 115 through the gas communication channel 116 inside the spike 105 and then flow into an external device requiring a high-pressure gas source through the first pipeline.
In an exemplary embodiment, one of the first guide 103 and the second guide 402 is a chute, and the other of the first guide 103 and the second guide 402 is a guide shaft.
In one embodiment, as shown in fig. 1, the first guide 103 is a chute and the second guide 402 is a guide shaft.
In an exemplary embodiment, as shown in fig. 2 and 5, the vial holder 400 has a second receiving chamber 404 and a third receiving chamber 405 open at a second end 403 of the vial holder 400, the second receiving chamber 404 and the third receiving chamber 405 being disposed along a length of the vial holder 400, the second receiving chamber 404 having an elastic assembly 406 mounted therein, the elastic assembly 406 being capable of providing an elastic bias to a gas vial positioned in the third receiving chamber 405.
In an exemplary embodiment, as shown in fig. 5, an annular stop 407 is provided between the second receiving chamber 404 and the third receiving chamber 405.
As shown in fig. 2, the elastic assembly 406 includes a connecting member 408 and a first elastic member 409, wherein a first end of the first elastic member 409 abuts against a bottom wall of the second accommodating cavity 404, and a second end of the first elastic member 409 abuts against the connecting member 408; as shown in fig. 6, an end of the connecting member 408, which is close to the first elastic member 409, is provided with an expansion portion 410 extending in a radial direction, an outer diameter D1 of the expansion portion 410 is larger than an inner diameter D2 of the annular stopper portion 407, and the expansion portion 410 is located in the second accommodating chamber 404, and an end of the connecting member 408, which is far from the first elastic member 409, is inserted into the third accommodating chamber 405 after passing through the annular stopper portion 407, and is capable of contacting the gas bottle 500. The gas bottle 500 is placed in the third receiving cavity 405 and the bottom of the gas bottle 500 abuts against one end of the connection 408.
When the bottle holder 400 is rotated from the inclined state of fig. 1 to the state of fig. 3 about the second guide 402, the first elastic member 409 elastically supports the gas bottle 500 through the connection member 408, and continues to press down the second end 202 of the pressing rod 200, so that the gas bottle 500 moves in a direction approaching the lancet 105, so that the lancet 105 punctures the gas bottle 500. In the process, the first elastic member 409 provides an elastic supporting force to the gas cylinder 500 through the connection 408 that is greater than the puncturing force applied to the gas cylinder 500 by the puncturing needle so that the puncturing needle 105 can puncture the gas cylinder 500.
The length dimensions of commercially available gas bottles 500 have a large tolerance, and the arrangement of the first resilient element 409 and the connector 408 allows the entire lancing device to accommodate gas bottles 500 of different lengths. When the gas bottle 500 is longer, the first elastic element 409 compresses to a greater extent to accommodate the longer gas bottle 500; when the gas bottle 500 is shorter, the first resilient element 409 compresses less to accommodate the shorter gas bottle 500.
The provision of the annular stop 407 prevents the resilient assembly 406 from sliding out of the bottle holder 400.
The difference in length of the gas bottle 500 preferably does not exceed the length L of the portion of the connector 408 that passes through the annular stop 407 (see fig. 2 for a fit), preventing the connector 408 from disengaging the annular stop 407.
In an exemplary embodiment, the first elastic element 409 may be a gas spring or an elastomer, where the kind of the first elastic element 409 is not limited thereto, and it may be any form in the prior art as long as the above-described functions can be achieved.
In an exemplary embodiment, as shown in fig. 2 and 6, a mounting slot 411 is provided at a side of the connection member 408 facing the third receiving chamber 405, and a magnet 412 is provided in the mounting slot 411.
The magnet 412 is capable of holding the gas cylinder 500 to position the gas cylinder 500.
In an exemplary embodiment, as shown in fig. 7, the second end 202 of the plunger 200 is provided with a self-locking hole 203 and the second end 104 of the base 100 is provided with: a gas passage 106 and a fourth accommodation chamber 107.
One end 108 of the gas passage 106 can be connected to a high pressure gas source originating from a gas bottle 500. Specifically, the sidewall of the second end 104 of the base 100 is provided with a second connection port 117, the aforementioned first pipeline is connected to the second connection port 117 through a second pipeline (not shown), the second connection port 117 is connected to the one end 108 of the gas channel 106, and a pressure regulating device may be disposed on the first pipeline, and a connection point of the second pipeline and the first pipeline may be located upstream of the pressure regulating device or may also be located downstream of the pressure regulating device. The high pressure gas in the gas bottle 500 flows from the first line to the second line and finally to the gas channel 106.
The fourth accommodation chamber 107 is internally provided with a piston rod 109 and a second elastic member 110, the piston rod 109 being capable of sliding along the length direction of the fourth accommodation chamber 107, the second elastic member 110 being capable of providing an elastic force that slides the piston rod 109 in a direction away from the self-locking hole 203 (i.e., in the direction of arrow a in fig. 7), the other end 111 of the gas passage 106 communicating to a portion of the fourth accommodation chamber 107 away from the self-locking hole 203.
The high-pressure gas flowing in through the gas passage 106 can push the piston rod 109 to be inserted into the self-locking hole 203 of the compression bar 200 while overcoming the elastic force of the second elastic element 110 after flowing into the fourth accommodating chamber 107, so as to lock the compression bar 200, and prevent the compression bar from being opened by misoperation of a worker under the condition that the high-pressure gas exists in the gas bottle 500, thereby avoiding accidents.
In an exemplary embodiment, the second elastic member 110 may be a spring, and the kind of the second elastic member 110 is not limited thereto, and may be any form in the prior art as long as the above-described functions can be achieved.
In an exemplary embodiment, a gap exists between the piston portion (a portion remote from the lock hole 203) of the piston rod 109 and the side wall of the fourth accommodation chamber 107, so that the high-pressure gas flowing in through the gas passage 106 can flow into the end of the fourth accommodation chamber 107 remote from the lock hole 203 through the gap, and the gas passage 106 is injected with a time delay agent.
The time delay agent causes the gas of the gas passage 106 to slowly flow into the fourth accommodation chamber 107, thereby reducing the pushing speed of the high pressure gas to the piston rod 109 to prevent one end of the piston rod 109 from penetrating out of the fourth accommodation chamber 107 before the compression rod 200 is pushed down in place, thereby affecting the push down of the compression rod 200.
In an exemplary embodiment, the time delay agent may be butter or damping grease, and the kind of the time delay agent is not limited thereto, and may be any form in the prior art as long as the above functions can be achieved. The butter can realize the time delay function under low pressure, and the damping grease can realize the time delay function under high pressure.
In an exemplary embodiment, as shown in fig. 7, 12 and 13, the piston portion of the piston rod 109 (i.e., the portion remote from the lock hole 203) is provided with a first groove 113, the first groove 113 is an annular groove, and the gas of the gas passage 106 and the delay agent enter the slit from the first groove 113, so that the force received by the outer circumferential surface of the piston rod 109 is made uniform.
In an exemplary embodiment, the piston portion of the piston rod 109 (i.e., the portion remote from the self-locking aperture 203) is further provided with a second groove 118, as shown in fig. 7, in which a sealing ring may be mounted within the second groove 118.
In an exemplary embodiment, as shown in fig. 8, the lower surface of the bottle holder 400 is provided with a soft pad 413, and the soft pad 413 can reduce friction between the lower surface of the bottle holder 400 and the base 100 and reduce scratches.
In an exemplary embodiment, the material of the cushion 413 may be nylon, and the kind of the material of the cushion 413 is not limited thereto, and may be any form in the prior art, as long as the above functions can be achieved.
In an exemplary embodiment, the sidewall of the bottle holder 400 is provided with a boss 414. On the one hand, the boss 414 may limit the bottle holder 400 in the width direction thereof; on the other hand, the boss 414 is hidden in the first accommodating cavity 101 of the base 100, so that even if the grinding mark is generated due to sliding, the grinding mark is generated at a position which is not easy to be seen by a user, thereby ensuring the aesthetic property of the whole device and being beneficial to improving the use experience of the user.
In an exemplary embodiment, as shown in fig. 1, 10 and 11, the side wall of the pressing lever 200 is provided with a locking groove 204, the locking groove 204 has a first guide surface 205 and a second guide surface 206, one side of the base 100 is provided with a latch 114, the bottom of the latch 114 is repositionably mounted to the base 100, and the top of the latch 114 has a pin 119.
During depression of the plunger 200, the first guide surface 205 of the locking groove 204 can push the pin 119 such that the pin 119 with the latch 114 can rotate about the bottom of the latch 114 such that the pin 119 leaves room so that the pin 119 can snap into the locking groove 204, thereby locking the plunger 200.
When it is desired to open the plunger 200, the operator directly pushes the top of the latch 114 so that the latch 114 rotates about its bottom to slide the pin 119 out of the locking slot 204 along the second guide surface 206, thereby unlocking the plunger 200.
The operation of the lancing device according to the embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
In the state of fig. 1, the bottle holder 400 forms a certain angle with the base 100, and the second end 403 of the bottle holder 400 is above (i.e., outside) the first accommodating cavity 101 of the base 100, so that the gas bottle 500 can be conveniently and directly inserted into the bottle holder 400 or the gas bottle 500 can be conveniently replaced. Wherein the magnet 412 in the connector 408 is capable of positioning the gas bottle 500 to prevent the gas bottle 500 from rocking within the bottle holder 400.
Pressing down on the second end 202 of the plunger 200 causes the plunger 200 to rotate (i.e., rotate downward) in a second rotational direction (i.e., clockwise in fig. 1-4) about the first end 102 of the base 100 from a second position (i.e., the position of fig. 1) and rotate the bottle holder 400 via the linkage 300.
After the plunger 200 is rotated to the position shown in fig. 3, the second end 403 of the bottle holder 400 has entered the first receiving chamber 101, at which point the bottle holder 400 is no longer rotated.
Continuing to press down on the second end 202 of the compression bar 200, the bottle holder 400 moves along the first guide 103 to the state of fig. 4, so that the gas bottle 500 contacts the spike 105, and the spike pierces the gas bottle 500, so that the high-pressure gas in the gas bottle 500 flows into the external device requiring the use of the high-pressure gas through the gas communication passage 116, the first connection port 115, and the first line inside the spike 105.
During depression of the second end 202 of the plunger 200, the first guide surface 205 of the locking groove 204 pushes the pin 119 such that the pin 119 rotates the latch 114 about the bottom of the latch 114 such that the pin 119 leaves room so that the pin 119 can snap into the locking groove 204, thereby locking the plunger 200.
In the state of fig. 4, the high-pressure gas in the gas bottle 500 flows into the one end 108 of the gas passage 106 through the first line and the second line, and then flows into the gas passage 106. The high pressure gas flowing in through the gas passage 106 can push the piston rod 109 to be inserted into the self-locking hole 203 of the compression rod 200 while overcoming the elastic force of the second elastic member 110 after flowing into the fourth receiving chamber 107 to lock the compression rod 200.
After the high pressure gas in the gas bottle 500 is used for a large part, the residual gas may be discharged through a pressure relief device (not shown). At this point, the gas bottle 500 needs to be replaced.
After the pressure relief device discharges the residual gas, the gas channel 106 has no high-pressure gas, and the compressed second elastic element 110 pushes the piston rod 109 to slide away from the self-locking hole 203 (i.e. in the direction of arrow a in fig. 7), so that the piston rod 109 is separated from the self-locking hole 203, and the locking of the piston rod 109 to the compression rod 200 is released.
When the gas bottle 500 needs to be replaced, the top of the lock catch 114 is directly pushed so that the lock catch 114 rotates around the bottom thereof, so that the pin 119 slides out of the locking groove 204 along the second guide surface 206, thereby unlocking the compression bar 200.
The second end 202 of the plunger 200 is rotated upwardly such that the plunger rotates (i.e., rotates upwardly) about the first end 102 of the base 100 in a first rotational direction (i.e., counterclockwise in fig. 1-4) from a first position (i.e., the position of fig. 4) to move the bottle holder 400 along the first guide 103 to the position of fig. 3 via the link 300, at which time the second guide 402 has slid to the end of the first guide 103 (the end proximate to the first end 102 of the base 100).
Continuing to rotate the plunger 200 upwards, since the second guiding portion 402 has slid to the end of the first guiding portion 103, the plunger 200 will drive the bottle holder 400 to rotate (i.e. rotate upwards) around the second guiding portion 402 in the first rotation direction (i.e. counterclockwise in fig. 1-4) by the connecting rod 300, so that the second end 403 of the bottle holder 400 leaves the first accommodating cavity 101, i.e. the bottle holder 400 forms an included angle with the base 100, so as to replace the gas bottle 500 more conveniently.
