Description
본 발명은 휴대용 자동 약물주입기에 관한 것으로서, 더욱 상세하게는 휴대 및 취급이 간편하고 정확한 양의 약물을 안전하게 주입할 수 있는 휴대용 자동 약물주입기에 관한 것이다. The present invention relates to a portable automatic injector, and more particularly, to a portable automatic injector that is easy to carry and handle and can safely inject an accurate amount of drug.
일반적으로 피부를 통하여 약물을 투여하는 방법은 소화관을 통하지 않고 약물을 전신적이나 국소적으로 투여하는 방법으로서, 위장관 부작용을 줄여줄 수 있는 등 경구로 투여되는 약물보다 적은 용량으로도 충분한 약효를 얻을 수 있다.In general, the method of administering the drug through the skin is a method of administering the drug systemically or locally without passing through the digestive tract, which may reduce the side effects of the gastrointestinal tract. have.
또한, 약물의 배출 및 흡수 속도를 일정하게 조절할 수 있으므로, 전문가의 도움을 받지 않고 안전하게 환자 본인도 약물을 투여할 수 있는 장점이 있다. In addition, since the discharge and absorption rate of the drug can be controlled constantly, there is an advantage that the patient himself can safely administer the drug without the help of a specialist.
보통 약물의 주입은 환자에게 주입하고자 약물을 의사가 처방하고, 간호사가 약물이 들어 있는 주사기를 환자의 주사위치에 대고 약물을 주입하는 형태이다.Injecting a drug is usually a form in which a doctor prescribes a drug to be injected into a patient, and a nurse injects the drug into a patient's dice by holding a syringe containing the drug.
예를 들면, 치료를 목적으로 약물을 인체에 주입하기 위한 수단으로 주사기를 주로 사용하고 있으며, 이렇게 주사기를 사용하여 피부에 약물을 주입하는 경우, 한손으로 주사기 본체와 플런저를 잡은 상태에서 플런저를 밀어 약물을 주입하는 것이 보통이다.For example, a syringe is mainly used as a means for injecting a drug into the human body for therapeutic purposes. When injecting a drug into the skin using the syringe, the plunger is pushed while holding the syringe body and the plunger with one hand. It is common to inject drugs.
이렇게 주사기로 약물을 주입하는 경우 약물이 과다하게 투여되면 환자에게 위급한 상황을 초래할 수 있는 등 간호사나 사용자는 세심한 주의를 기울여야 한다. In the case of injecting the drug with a syringe in this way, the overdose of the drug may cause an emergency situation for the patient, and the nurse or the user should pay close attention.
하지만, 주사기로 약물 주입 시 약물의 주입량을 조절해가면서 정확히 맞추기 위해서는 상당한 숙련도와 경험이 요구되는 등 안전한 주사 처치에 많은 어려움이 있다. However, there are a lot of difficulties in safe injection treatment, such as requiring a great deal of skill and experience to accurately adjust while adjusting the injection amount of the drug in the syringe injection.
한편, 평상 시 주사를 받지 않으면서 특수한 질환발병 시에만 주사를 받는 환자의 경우, 신속한 약물의 주입이 필요하기 때문에 개인이 늘 약물을 휴대하고 있다가 자신이나 보호자가 주사기로 약물을 주입하게 된다. On the other hand, patients who receive injections only when a particular disease does not occur without the usual injections, because the need for rapid injection of the drug, the individual always carry the drug and the self or guardians inject the drug through the syringe.
이러한 경우에도 약물 주입량 조절이나 주사바늘의 깊이 조절 등에 어려움이 있는 등 약물의 정량 주입을 위해서는 상당한 숙련도가 요구된다. Even in this case, a considerable amount of skill is required for the quantitative injection of the drug, such as difficulty in controlling the amount of drug injection or adjusting the depth of the needle.
즉, 개인용 주사기는 일회용 바늘 1개를 이용하여 체내에 주입하는 방식이기 때문에 환자 스스로가 약물을 주입하는 위치를 정확히 가늠하기 쉽지 않고, 약물을 주입하는 속도 또한 조절하는데 어려움이 있는 등 취급하는데 불편함이 있으며, 안전성 측면에서 볼 때에도 위험요소를 많이 포함하고 있다.In other words, since a personal syringe is injected into the body using a single disposable needle, it is not easy to accurately determine the location of the patient's injection of the drug itself, and it is inconvenient to handle, such as difficulty in controlling the speed of injecting the drug. There are many risk factors in terms of safety.

이하, 첨부한 도면을 참조하여 본 발명을 상세히 설명하면 다음과 같다. Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
도 1 내지 도 5는 본 발명의 일 실시예에 따른 휴대용 자동 약물주입기를 나타내는 사시도이다. 1 to 5 is a perspective view showing a portable automatic drug injector according to an embodiment of the present invention.
도 1 내지 도 5에 도시한 바와 같이, 상기 휴대용 자동 약물주입기는 각종 구성 부품들을 수용하기 위한 수단으로 본체(11)를 포함한다. As shown in Figs. 1 to 5, the portable automatic drug injector includes a main body 11 as a means for accommodating various components.
상기 본체(11)는 사용자가 손으로 잡고 편리하게 사용할 수 있고, 또 간편하게 휴대할 수 있는 선단부가 개방되어 있는 원통형의 길다란 하우징 형태로서, 본체 커버(11a)와 주사기 커버(11b)의 조합형으로 이루어지게 된다. The main body 11 has a cylindrical elongated housing shape in which a tip is opened for a user to hold and use conveniently, and can be conveniently carried. The main cover 11a and the syringe cover 11b are formed in combination. You lose.
상기 본체 커버(11a)는 상부 하우징과 하부 하우징의 조합으로 구성되고, 이때의 상하부 하우징은 다수의 클립(28)에 의해 체결되어 분해 및 조립이 가능한 구조로 결합된다. The main cover 11a is composed of a combination of an upper housing and a lower housing, and the upper and lower housings are coupled by a plurality of clips 28 to be disassembled and assembled.
그리고, 상기 주사기 커버(11a)는 핀(29)에 의해 체결되어 분해 및 조립이 가능한 구조로 결합되는 상부 하우징과 하부 하우징으로 구성되고, 상기 본체 커버(11a)의 선단부에 착탈가능한 구조로 결합된다. In addition, the syringe cover 11a is composed of an upper housing and a lower housing which are fastened by a pin 29 and coupled in a structure capable of disassembling and assembling. The syringe cover 11a is coupled to the front end of the main body cover 11a in a removable structure. .
예를 들면, 상기 본체 커버(11a)에 있는 걸림돌기(미도시)에 맞춰 주사기 커버(11b)의 후단부 내주면에 있는 "ㄱ"자 형상의 걸림홈(31)을 축방향으로 민 후에 원주방향으로 돌려서 체결하면, 주사기 커버(11b)를 본체 커버(11a)측에 장착시킬 수 있고, 반대로 주사기 커버(11b)를 돌린 후에 축방향으로 당기면 본체 커버(11a)로부터 쉽게 탈거할 수 있게 된다. For example, in accordance with the engaging projection (not shown) in the main body cover 11a, the "b" shaped locking groove 31 on the inner circumferential surface of the rear end of the syringe cover 11b is axially pushed in the circumferential direction. When it is tightened by rotating, the syringe cover 11b can be mounted on the main body cover 11a side. On the contrary, the syringe cover 11b can be easily removed from the main body cover 11a by turning in the axial direction after turning the syringe cover 11b.
이러한 주사기 커버(11b)의 착탈 조작은 주사기(13)를 교체할 때 하게 된다. This detachable operation of the syringe cover 11b is performed when the syringe 13 is replaced.
이와 같은 본체(11)에는 전원 ON/OFF 조작은 물론 약물 주입량 등을 조작하기 위한 여러 버튼류가 장착된다. The main body 11 is equipped with various buttons for operating the power ON / OFF operation, as well as the amount of drug injection.
예를 들면, 상기 본체 커버(11a)의 상부 하우징에는 기기 ON/OFF 조작을 위한 전원 버튼(10)이 장착되며, 상기 전원 버튼(10)의 누름조작 시 기기 내에 전원이 인가되면서 기기 작동을 위한 준비가 갖추어지게 된다. For example, a power button 10 for operating the device ON / OFF is mounted on the upper housing of the main body cover 11a, and power is applied to the device when the power button 10 is pressed. You will be ready.
또한, 상기 본체 커버(11a)의 상부 하우징에는 약물 주입량을 조절하는 주입량 업 버튼(23) 및 주입량 다운 버튼(24)이 장착된다. In addition, the upper housing of the main body cover 11a is equipped with an injection amount up button 23 and an injection amount down button 24 for adjusting a drug injection amount.
이에 따라, 상기 주입량 업 버튼(23)을 반복해서 누름 조작하게 되면, 약물 주입량이 단계적으로 증가되도록 조절(설정)될 수 있게 된다. Accordingly, when the injection amount up button 23 is repeatedly pressed, the drug injection amount can be adjusted (set) to increase step by step.
이때의 약물 주입량 범위는 0.01cc, 0.02cc, 0.03cc 등 3단계로 증가되도록 조절될 수 있게 된다. At this time, the drug injection range can be adjusted to increase in three steps, such as 0.01cc, 0.02cc, 0.03cc.
여기서, 약물량 주입량은 3단계 이외에도 여러 단계로 조절될 수 있음은 물론이다. Here, the amount of drug injection can be adjusted to several steps in addition to three steps, of course.
또한, 상기 주입량 다운 버튼(24)을 반복해서 누름 조작하는 경우에도 약물 주입량이 단계적으로 감소되도록 조절될 수 있게 된다. Further, even when the injection amount down button 24 is repeatedly pressed, the drug injection amount can be adjusted to be reduced step by step.
이때에도 약물 주입량 범위는 0.01cc, 0.02cc, 0.03cc 등 3단계로 감소되도록 조절될 수 있게 된다. In this case, the drug injection range can be adjusted to be reduced in three steps, such as 0.01cc, 0.02cc, 0.03cc.
또한, 상기 본체 커버(11a)의 상부 하우징에는 수동으로 플런저(15)를 전진 또는 후진시키는 전진 버튼(25) 및 후진 버튼(26)이 장착된다. In addition, the upper housing of the main body cover 11a is equipped with a forward button 25 and a reverse button 26 for manually moving the plunger 15 forward or backward.
여기서, 상기 전진 버튼(25)을 누름 조작하게 되면, 플런저(15)가 전진될 수 있게 되고, 상기 후진 버튼(26)을 누름 조작하게 되면, 플런저(15)가 후진될 수 있게 된다. In this case, when the forward button 25 is pressed, the plunger 15 may be advanced, and when the backward button 26 is pressed, the plunger 15 may be reversed.
이러한 전진 버튼(25)은 피부에 약물 주입 전 플런저(15)를 전진시켜 주사기 바늘(12)의 빈 공간을 약물로 채울 때 사용되고, 후진 버튼(26)은 주사기(13) 속의 약물을 모두 소진한 상태에서 플런저(15)를 복귀시킬 때 사용된다. The advance button 25 is used to advance the plunger 15 before the drug is injected into the skin to fill the empty space of the syringe needle 12 with the drug, and the reverse button 26 exhausts all the drugs in the syringe 13. It is used to return the plunger 15 from the state.
즉, 주사기의 약물을 다 사용한 후, 다음 시술을 위해 후진 버튼(26)을 사용하여 플런저(15)를 복귀시킬 수 있게 된다. That is, after the syringe is used up, the plunger 15 can be returned using the reverse button 26 for the next procedure.
그리고, 상기 본체 커버(11a)의 상부 하우징에는 디스플레이창(27)이 장착되며, 이때의 디스플레이창(27)에는 약물 설정 주입량(0.01cc 등의 수치로), 배터리 잔량(막대의 점등 갯수 등으로) 등이 표시될 수 있게 된다. In addition, a display window 27 is mounted on the upper housing of the main body cover 11a, and at this time, the display window 27 has a drug set injection amount (to a value such as 0.01 cc), a battery remaining amount (such as the number of lights on the rod) ) Can be displayed.
이와 같은, 주입량 업/다운 버튼(23,24), 전후진 버튼(25,26), 디스플레이창(27) 등은 본체(11) 내의 컨트롤러(17)측과 전기적인 회로를 구성하고 있으며, 이에 따라 각 버튼의 조작 신호가 입력되면 컨트롤러(17)의 출력 제어에 의해 액추에이터(14)의 작동(회전량, 회전방향 등)이 제어될 수 있게 된다. The injection amount up / down buttons 23 and 24, the forward and backward buttons 25 and 26, the display window 27, and the like constitute an electrical circuit with the controller 17 side of the main body 11. Accordingly, when the operation signal of each button is input, the operation (rotation amount, rotation direction, etc.) of the actuator 14 can be controlled by the output control of the controller 17.
한편, 상기 본체(11)의 일측, 예를 들면 본체 내에 들어 있는 주사기(13)가 위치되는 주사기 커버(11b)의 일측에는 하우징 길이방향을 따라 나란한 약물확인용 슬릿(30)이 형성되어 있으며, 이때의 약물확인용 슬릿(30)을 통해 주사기(13) 속에 남아 있는 약물의 양을 확인하여 적절한 시점에서 주사기(13)를 교체할 수 있게 된다. On the other hand, one side of the main body 11, for example, one side of the syringe cover (11b) in which the syringe 13 contained in the main body is located, side by side along the longitudinal direction of the housing is formed with a drug confirmation slit 30, At this time, by checking the amount of the drug remaining in the syringe 13 through the drug check slit 30, it is possible to replace the syringe 13 at an appropriate time.
또한, 상기 휴대용 자동 약물주입기는 기기에 전원을 공급하는 수단으로 배터리(21)를 포함한다. The portable autoinjector also includes a battery 21 as a means for supplying power to the device.
이러한 배터리(21)는 액추에이터(14)의 작동 등을 위해 전원을 공급하는 수단으로서, 본체(11)의 내부 뒷쪽, 예를 들면 후술하는 액추에이터(14)의 뒷쪽에 설치되고, 컨트롤러(17)측 및 액추에이터(14)측고 전기적으로 접속되어 액추에이터(14) 등으로 전원을 공급할 수 있게 된다. The battery 21 is a means for supplying power for the operation of the actuator 14 and the like, and is installed inside the main body 11, for example, behind the actuator 14 described later, and on the controller 17 side. And it is electrically connected to the actuator 14 side, it is possible to supply power to the actuator 14 and the like.
그리고, 상기 배터리(21)의 충전을 위하여, 본체(11)의 후단부에는 배터리(21)측 및 컨트롤러(17)측과 전기적으로 접속되어 있는 DC 잭(22)이 설치된다. In order to charge the battery 21, the rear end of the main body 11 is provided with a DC jack 22 electrically connected to the battery 21 side and the controller 17 side.
이에 따라, 상기 DC 잭(22)에 충전용 아답타(미도시)를 연결하여 외부 전원으로부터 배터리(21)를 충전할 수 있게 되고, 충전 중에서 사용이 가능하게 된다. Accordingly, by connecting a charging adapter (not shown) to the DC jack 22, it is possible to charge the battery 21 from an external power source, it is possible to use during charging.
또한, 상기 휴대용 자동 약물주입기는 일정량의 약물이 채워져 있는 주사기(13)를 포함한다. In addition, the portable automatic injector includes a syringe 13 filled with a certain amount of drug.
상기 주사기(13)는 본체(11)에 내부, 즉 주사기 커버(11b)의 내측에 커버와 나란하게 설치되고, 이러한 주사기(13)의 앞쪽에는 주사기 바늘(12)이 장착된다.The syringe 13 is installed in the main body 11, that is, parallel to the cover inside the syringe cover 11b, and the syringe needle 12 is mounted to the front of the syringe 13.
여기서, 상기 주사기 바늘(12)은 다수 개의 바늘을 가지는 멀티 주입 바늘 타입으로 이루어질 수 있게 된다. Here, the syringe needle 12 may be made of a multi-injection needle type having a plurality of needles.
그리고, 상기 주사기(13)의 개방된 후단에는 주사기 밀대 역할의 플런저(15)가 일부 삽입 장착되어, 주사기(13) 속의 약물을 마감할 수 있게 된다. In addition, a part of the plunger 15 serving as a syringe rod is inserted into the opened rear end of the syringe 13 to close the drug in the syringe 13.
이에 따라, 액추에이터 작동 시 플런저(15)가 전진 이동하게 되면, 주사기(13) 속의 약물은 플런저(15)에 의해 가압되어 주사기 바늘(12)을 통해 빠져나가 피부에 주입될 수 있게 된다. Accordingly, when the plunger 15 moves forward during the operation of the actuator, the drug in the syringe 13 is pressurized by the plunger 15 to be ejected through the syringe needle 12 and injected into the skin.
또한, 상기 휴대용 자동 약물주입기는 약물 주입 시 기기에 동력을 제공하고 약물을 가압하는 수단으로 액추에이터(14)와 플런저(15)를 포함한다. The portable autoinjector also includes an actuator 14 and a plunger 15 as a means to power the device and pressurize the drug during drug injection.
상기 액추에이터(14)는 본체(11)의 내부에서 주사기(13)의 뒷쪽에 위치되고, 액추에이터 하우징(32) 내에 고정되는 구조로 설치된다. The actuator 14 is located behind the syringe 13 in the body 11 and is installed in a structure fixed in the actuator housing 32.
여기서, 상기 액추에이터(14)는 정역회전 제어가 가능한 서보모터를 적용할 수 있게 된다. Here, the actuator 14 is able to apply a servo motor capable of forward and reverse rotation control.
이러한 액추에이터(14)는 컨트롤러(17)측 및 배터리(21)측과 전기적인 회로구성으로 연결되며, 컨트롤러(17)의 제어에 의해 회전량, 회전속도, 회전방향 등이 제어될 수 있게 된다. The actuator 14 is connected to the controller 17 side and the battery 21 side in an electrical circuit configuration, and the amount of rotation, rotation speed, direction of rotation, etc. can be controlled by the controller 17.
그리고, 상기 액추에이터(14)의 축에는 커플러(33)를 매개로 스크류축(20)이 연결되며, 이때의 스크류축(20)은 플런저(15)의 중심축선을 따라 나란하게 배치되면서 플런저(15)측과 스크류 결합된다. The screw shaft 20 is connected to the shaft of the actuator 14 via the coupler 33, and the screw shaft 20 is disposed side by side along the central axis of the plunger 15. Screwed to the side.
이에 따라, 상기 액추에이터(14)의 작동 시 스크류축(20)의 회전에 의해 이와 스크류 결합되어 있는 플런저(15)는 스크류 전동을 통해 앞뒤로 직선 이동될 수 있게 된다. Accordingly, when the actuator 14 is operated, the plunger 15 which is screwed thereto by the rotation of the screw shaft 20 may be linearly moved back and forth through screw transmission.
상기 플런저(15)는 약물을 가압하는 수단으로서, 본체(11)의 내부에서 액추에이터(14)의 앞쪽에 위치됨과 더불어 스크류축(20)과 결합된다. The plunger 15 is a means for pressing the drug and is located in front of the actuator 14 in the body 11 and coupled with the screw shaft 20.
이러한 플런저(15)는 선단부를 통해 주사기(13)의 후단 내측으로 삽입 결합되어 주사기 밀대의 역할을 할 수 있게 된다. Such a plunger 15 is inserted into the rear end of the syringe 13 through the front end portion to be able to act as a syringe pusher.
즉, 상기 플런저(15)는 액추에이터(14)의 동력과 스크류축(20)과의 스크류 전동을 통해 전진 이동하면서 주사기(13)에 들어 있는 약물을 가압할 수 있게 된다. That is, the plunger 15 can press the drug contained in the syringe 13 while moving forward through the power of the actuator 14 and the screw transmission of the screw shaft 20.
물론, 도시하지 않았지만 플런저(15)의 전후진 직선 이동 시 플런저(15)가 자체적으로 회전되지 못하도록 가이드해주는 수단이 본체 내에 구비될 수 있게 된다. Of course, although not shown, a means for guiding the plunger 15 from rotating itself when the plunger 15 moves forward and backward may be provided in the main body.
또한, 상기 휴대용 자동 약물주입기는 약물 주입을 위한 기기의 작동 개시신호를 제공하는 수단으로 가이드(16)를 포함한다. The portable autoinjector also includes a guide 16 as a means for providing an operation start signal of the device for drug injection.
상기 가이드(16)는 약물 주입 시 주사기 바늘(12)에 앞서 가장 먼저 피부에 닿는 부분으로서, 원형의 관 형태로 이루어져 본체(11)의 선단부, 즉 주사기 커버(11b)의 선단부 내측에 수납 및 인출가능한 구조로 설치된다. The guide 16 is the part which first touches the skin prior to the syringe needle 12 during the injection of the drug. The guide 16 is formed in a circular tube shape and is stored and drawn out inside the tip of the main body 11, that is, the tip of the syringe cover 11b. It is installed in a possible structure.
여기서, 상기 가이드(16)는, 도 6에 도시한 바와 같이, 주사기 커버(11b)의 선단부에 끼워진 상태에서 그 선단부의 탄력형 바 부분 끝에 형성되어 있는 쐐기형의 걸림돌기(40)를 통해 주사기 커버(11b)의 선단부 내벽 턱부분(미도시)에 걸려지게 되므로서, 주사기 커버(11b)측으로부터 이탈이 방지될 수 있게 된다. Here, the guide 16, as shown in Figure 6, in the state fitted to the tip of the syringe cover (11b) through the wedge-shaped locking projection 40 formed on the end of the elastic bar portion of the tip of the syringe Since the front end of the cover 11b is caught by the inner wall jaw portion (not shown), the detachment from the syringe cover 11b side can be prevented.

이러한 가이드(16)의 뒷쪽 주사기 커버(11b)의 내측으로는 스토퍼 링(18)이 동심원상으로 배치되고, 이때의 스토퍼 링(18)은 가이드(16)의 후단부와 접하면서 가이드(16)의 수납 및 인출 동작 시 함께 앞뒤로 움직일 수 있게 된다. The stopper ring 18 is arranged concentrically inside the rear syringe cover 11b of the guide 16, and the stopper ring 18 is in contact with the rear end of the guide 16 while the guide 16 The storage and withdrawal of the operation will be able to move back and forth together.
여기서, 상기 스토퍼 링(18)은 후술하는 위치결정용 돌기(38)의 측면 돌출부분을 통해 주사기 커버(11b)의 내벽 길이방향을 따라 형성되어 있는 가이드홈(42) 내에 끼워져 안내를 받으면서 가이드(16)와 함께 앞뒤로 움직일 수 있게 된다. Here, the stopper ring 18 is inserted into the guide groove 42 formed along the longitudinal direction of the inner wall of the syringe cover 11b through the lateral protrusion of the positioning protrusion 38 to be described later to receive the guide ( With 16) you can move back and forth.
결국, 이렇게 움직이는 가이드(16) 및 스토퍼 링(18)은 후술하는 스위치 바(43a,43b) 간의 접촉 및 접점 형성과 함께 멈추게 되면서 가이드(16)의 후진 한계 위치가 결정될 수 있게 되고, 이렇게 가이드(16)가 후진 한계 위치에 왔을 때 스위치 접점 신호가 발생하면서 이때부터 약물이 주입될 수 있게 된다. As a result, the movable guide 16 and the stopper ring 18 stop together with contact and contact formation between the switch bars 43a and 43b to be described later, and the reverse limit position of the guide 16 can be determined. When 16) is at the reverse limit position, the switch contact signal is generated and the drug can be injected therefrom.
이와 같이, 상기 가이드(16) 및 스토퍼 링(18)의 움직임을 통해, 즉 가이드(16)가 후퇴 한계 위치에 오는 경우에 한해 약물이 주입될 수 있도록 함으로써, 주사기 바늘(12)이 피부에 찔리지 않는 상태에서 약물이 주입되는 것을 방지할 수 있게 된다. In this way, the syringe needle 12 is stuck to the skin by the movement of the guide 16 and the stopper ring 18, i.e., allowing the drug to be injected only when the guide 16 is in the retraction limit position. It is possible to prevent the drug from being injected in the absence.
그리고, 상기 가이드(16)의 복원을 위한 수단, 즉 수납 후 자동으로 인출되도록 하는 수단으로 복원 스프링(35)이 마련되며, 이때의 복원 스프링(35)은 스토퍼 링(18)의 후면부와 주사기 커버(11b)의 내벽 둘레를 따라 형성되어 있는 스토퍼 단(34) 사이에 양단 지지되는 구조로 설치되면서 스토퍼 링(18)을 포함하는 가이드(16) 전체를 상시 바깥쪽으로 탄력 지지하는 역할을 하게 된다. In addition, a restoring spring 35 is provided as a means for restoring the guide 16, that is, a means for automatically withdrawing after storage, and the restoring spring 35 at this time has a rear portion and a syringe cover of the stopper ring 18. It is installed in a structure that is supported at both ends between the stopper end 34 formed along the inner wall circumference of the (11b) serves to elastically support the entire guide 16 including the stopper ring 18 to the outside at all times.
또한, 상기 가이드(16)가 피부에 닿아 눌려지면서 뒤로 밀릴 때 후퇴 한계 위치에서 스위치 접점 신호를 발생시키는 수단으로 스위치 접점(36)을 가지는 한 쌍의 스위치 바(43a,43b)가 마련된다. In addition, a pair of switch bars 43a and 43b having a switch contact 36 are provided as a means for generating a switch contact signal at a retraction limit position when the guide 16 is pressed against the skin and pushed back.
이러한 스위치 바(43a,43b)는 주사기 커버(11b)와 본체 커버(11a)의 내측에서 커버 길이방향을 따라 나란하게 일직선상의 앞뒤로 배치되는 구조로 설치되며, 앞쪽으로 배치되는 스위치 바(43a)는 그 선단부를 통해 스토퍼 링(18)과 접촉하면서 전후로 이동가능하게 되고, 뒷쪽으로 배치되는 스위치 바(43b)는 그 후단부를 통해 컨트롤러(17)측과 연결되면서 고정될 수 있게 된다. The switch bars 43a and 43b are installed in a structure in which the syringe bars 11b and the body cover 11a are arranged in a straight line back and forth in parallel along the cover length direction, and the switch bars 43a disposed forward are It is possible to move back and forth while contacting the stopper ring 18 through the front end, and the switch bar 43b disposed at the rear side can be fixed while being connected to the controller 17 side through the rear end thereof.
그리고, 상기 스위치 바(43a,43b)의 서로 마주대하는 후단과 선단은 스위치 접점(36)으로 이루어지게 되고, 평상 시 서로 일정 갭을 유지하고 있다가, 앞쪽의 스위치 바(43a)의 이동에 따라 서로 붙게 되면서 스위치 접점 신호를 발생시킬 수 있게 된다. In addition, the rear end and the front end of the switch bars 43a and 43b facing each other are made of a switch contact 36, and maintain a constant gap with each other, and then move according to the movement of the front switch bar 43a. As they stick together, they can generate switch contact signals.
물론, 이때의 스위치 바(43a,43b)의 스위치 접점(36)과 컨트롤러(17)는 전기적으로 접속될 수 있게 된다. Of course, the switch contacts 36 and the controller 17 of the switch bars 43a and 43b at this time may be electrically connected.
이에 따라, 가이드(16) 및 스토퍼 링(18)가 후진 한계 위치에서 스위치 접점(36)과 접촉하게 되면, 스위치 접점(36)이 ON 동작되면서 이때의 스위치 접점 신호가 컨트롤러(17)측에 제공될 수 있게 되고, 이와 동시에 액추에이터 가동을 통해 약물 주입이 이루어질 수 있게 된다. Accordingly, when the guide 16 and the stopper ring 18 come into contact with the switch contact 36 at the reverse limit position, the switch contact 36 is ON and the switch contact signal at this time is provided to the controller 17 side. At the same time, drug injection can be achieved through actuator operation.
다른 예로서, 상기 가이드의 후진 한계 위치를 검출하여 신호를 발생시키는 수단으로, 물리적인 접촉에 의해 스위치 접점 신호를 발생시키는 방식 이외에도 센서 수단을 이용하여 가이드 위치를 검출하여 신호를 발생시키는 방식을 적용할 수도 있게 된다. As another example, as a means for generating a signal by detecting the reverse limit position of the guide, in addition to a method for generating a switch contact signal by physical contact, a method for generating a signal by detecting a guide position using a sensor means is applied. You can do it.
또한, 상기 가이드(16)는 인출 길이(수납 깊이)가 조절될 수 있게 되고, 이에 따라 피부에 찔리는 주사기 바늘(12)의 깊이 조절이 가능하게 된다. In addition, the guide 16 is able to adjust the withdrawal length (depth of storage), thereby enabling the depth of the syringe needle 12 stuck to the skin.
이를 위하여, 상기 가이드(16)의 후단부는 깊이가 다른 여러 개의 홈부가 연이어 배치되어 있는 구조, 예를 들면 상대적으로 깊이가 점차 깊어지는 홈부가 원주방향을 따라 순차적으로 연이어 배치되어 있는 구조의 다단식 단차부(19)가 형성된다. To this end, the rear end of the guide 16 is a multi-stage stepped portion of a structure in which a plurality of groove portions having different depths are arranged in succession, for example, a structure in which a groove portion having a relatively deeper depth is sequentially arranged in a circumferential direction. (19) is formed.

In addition, a positioning projection 38 is inserted into the front surface of the stopper ring 18 to be selectively inserted into the multi-stage stepped portion 19 of the guide 16. At this time, the positioning projection 38 is also 120. It may be provided with about three arranged at intervals.
이에 따라, 상기 가이드(16)를 돌려가면서 다단식 단차부(19)가 가지는 어느 하나의 홈부, 예를 들면 0.9mm, 1.2mm, 1.5mm, 2.0mm의 4단계 홈부로 되어 있는 것 중에서 어느 하나의 홈부를 스토퍼 링(18)에 있는 위치결정용 돌기(38)에 끼워 맞추는 방식으로 가이드 인출 길이, 즉 약물 주입 깊이를 조절할 수 있게 된다. Accordingly, any one of the grooves of the multi-stage stepped portion 19, for example, 0.9 mm, 1.2 mm, 1.5 mm, and 2.0 mm, is formed by turning the guide 16. By fitting the grooves to the positioning projections 38 in the stopper ring 18, the guide withdrawal length, i.e. the drug injection depth, can be adjusted.
또한, 상기 가이드(16)의 깊이 조절 상태를 확인하기 위한 수단으로 인디게이터(37)가 마련된다. In addition, the indicator 37 is provided as a means for confirming the depth adjustment state of the guide 16.

이때, 주사기(13)와 주사기 바늘(12)의 결합방식은 종래와 동일하므로 구체적인 설명은 생략하기로 한다. At this time, since the coupling method of the syringe 13 and the syringe needle 12 is the same as in the prior art, a detailed description thereof will be omitted.
다음, 상기 주사기 커버(11a)의 선단부에 가이드(16)를 끼우고 이 가이드(16)를 돌려가면서 주입 깊이를 선택하면 사용 준비가 완료된다. Next, insert the guide 16 to the tip of the syringe cover (11a) and select the injection depth while rotating the guide 16, the preparation for use is complete.
도 9는 본 발명의 일 실시예에 따른 휴대용 자동 약물주입기의 컨트롤러를 나타내는 개략도이다. Figure 9 is a schematic diagram showing a controller of a portable automatic drug injector according to an embodiment of the present invention.
도 9에 도시한 바와 같이, 상기 컨트롤러(17)에는 조작수단으로서의 전원 버튼, 주입량 업다운 버튼(23,24), 전후진 버튼(25,26)이 접속되고, 전원수단으로서의 배터리(21)와 DC 잭(22)이 접속된다. As shown in Fig. 9, the controller 17 is connected to a power button, an injection amount up- down button 23, 24, forward and backward buttons 25, 26 as operating means, and the battery 21 and DC as power supply means. The jack 22 is connected.
그리고, 상기 컨트롤러(17)측과 액추에이터(14)측 간에도 전기적인 회로 구성이 이루어지게 된다. In addition, an electrical circuit configuration is also made between the controller 17 side and the actuator 14 side.
또한, 가이드(16)에 의해 ON/OFF 동작되는 스위치 접점(36)측과 컨트롤러(17)측 간에도 회로 구성이 이루어지게 된다. In addition, a circuit configuration is also made between the switch contact 36 side and the controller 17 side which are turned ON / OFF by the guide 16.
여기서, 상기 스위치 접점(36)과 컨트롤러(17) 사이의 회로 상에 커넥터(39)가 설치될 수 있게 된다. Here, the connector 39 can be installed on the circuit between the switch contact 36 and the controller 17.
이때의 커넥터(39)는 2개의 접점 형태로 이루어져, 본체 커버(11a)측과 주사기 커버(11b)측에 각각 장착될 수 있어, 주사기 커버(11b)를 분리하는 경우 접점이 분리되면서 스위치 접점(36)측과 컨트롤러(17) 간의 회로가 끊어지게 되고, 주사기 커버(11b)를 조립하는 경우 접점이 붙으면서 스위치 접점(36)측과 컨트롤러(17) 간의 회로가 연결될 수 있게 된다. At this time, the connector 39 is formed in two contact forms, and may be mounted on the body cover 11a side and the syringe cover 11b side, respectively. The circuit between the side 36 and the controller 17 is broken, and when assembling the syringe cover 11b, the circuit between the switch contact 36 side and the controller 17 can be connected while the contacts are attached.
이러한 컨트롤러(17)의 여러 제어로직에 대한 일 예로서, 모드의 주입량 업 버튼(23)과 전진 버튼(26)을 동시에 누를 시 설정 모드에 진입하도록 할 수 있고, 0.01cc의 주입량에 움직이는 액추에이터의 작동값을 조절할 수 있다. As an example of the various control logic of the controller 17, it is possible to enter the setting mode when the injection amount up button 23 and the forward button 26 of the mode at the same time, the movement of the actuator to the injection amount of 0.01cc The operating value can be adjusted.
다른 예로서, 기기의 동작 신호가 1분간 없을 때 자동으로 전원이 차단될 수 있고, 어떠한 동작(버튼, 가이드 눌림 등)이 발생할 때 기기가 켜지도록 할 수 있다. As another example, the power may be automatically cut off when there is no operation signal of the device for 1 minute, and the device may be turned on when any action (button, guide press, etc.) occurs.
따라서, 이와 같이 구성되는 휴대용 자동 약물주입기를 사용하여 피부에 약물을 주입하는 과정을 살펴보면 다음과 같다. Therefore, the process of injecting the drug into the skin using the portable automatic drug injector configured as described above is as follows.
도 10은 본 발명의 일 실시예에 따른 휴대용 자동 약물주입기의 사용상태를 나타내는 개략도이다. Figure 10 is a schematic diagram showing the use of the portable automatic drug injector according to an embodiment of the present invention.
도 10에 도시한 바와 같이, 약물을 피부에 주입하기 전 준비 과정으로서, 주사기 바늘(12)에 약물을 채우기 위해 전진 버튼(25)을 누른다. As shown in FIG. 10, as a preparation procedure before injecting the drug into the skin, the advance button 25 is pressed to fill the syringe needle 12 with the drug.
이렇게 전진 버튼(25)을 누르면, 액추에이터(14)의 작동에 의해 플런저(15)가 전진하게 되고, 이에 따라 주사기(13)의 약물이 가압되면서 주사기 바늘(12)을 통해 약물이 나오게 된다. When the advance button 25 is pressed in this way, the plunger 15 is advanced by the operation of the actuator 14, and thus the drug is ejected through the syringe needle 12 while the drug of the syringe 13 is pressed.
상기 주사기 바늘(12)에서 약물이 소량 나오면 전진 버튼(25)에서 손을 뗀다(①). When a small amount of drug emerges from the syringe needle 12, the hand is released from the forward button 25 (①).
이 상태에서, 기기(100)를 피부의 주사부위에 위치시키고(②), 피부에 가이드(16)를 대고 누르면 가이드(16)가 눌려지면서 본체 안으로 들어가게 되며(③), 이와 더불어 주사기 바늘(12)이 피부에 삽입된다(④). In this state, the device 100 is placed on the injection site of the skin (②), and the guide 16 is pressed against the skin and the guide 16 is pressed into the main body (③), and the syringe needle 12 ) Is inserted into the skin (④).
이와 동시에, 가이드(16)가 본체 안으로 들어가 후퇴 한계 위치에서 스위치 접점(36)을 ON 시키게 되고, 계속해서 스위치 접점(36)의 ON 신호를 받은 컨트롤러(17)의 출력 제어에 의해 액추에이터(14)가 작동되며, 플런저(15)의 전진에 의해 주사기(13) 속의 약물이 주사기 바늘(12)을 통해 피부 속에 주입된다(⑤∼⑦). At the same time, the guide 16 enters the main body to turn on the switch contact 36 at the retreat limit position, and then the actuator 14 is controlled by the output control of the controller 17 which receives the ON signal of the switch contact 36. Is activated, and the drug in the syringe 13 is injected into the skin through the syringe needle 12 by the advancement of the plunger 15 (⑤ ~ ⑦).
이때, 상기 컨트롤러(17)는 주입량 업/다운 버튼(23,24)에 의해 설정된 약물 주입량에 기초하여 액추에이터(14)의 작동(회전량 등)을 제어하기 때문에 정량의 약물이 주입될 수 있게 된다. In this case, since the controller 17 controls the operation (rotation amount, etc.) of the actuator 14 based on the amount of drug injection set by the amount of injection up / down buttons 23 and 24, a quantity of drug can be injected. .
여기서, 약물 주입과 관련한 바람직한 예로서, 액추에이터(14)의 정회전으로 주입량의 2배를 주입한 후, 역회전하여 절반을 다시 빨아들이도록 할 수 있게 된다. Here, as a preferable example related to the drug injection, it is possible to inject two times the injection amount by forward rotation of the actuator 14, and then reverse rotation to suck the half again.
그리고, 상기 액추에이터(14)의 정회전 또는 역회전 과정이 완료되면, 삑 소리(Beep)와 함께 정지되도록 하는 것이 바람직하다. Then, when the forward or reverse rotation process of the actuator 14 is completed, it is preferable to stop with a beep (Beep).
계속해서, 약물 주입 후, 기기(100)를 피부로부터 떼어내면, 가이드(16)는 초기 인출된 상태로 복귀되고, 약물 주입 시술이 모두 완료된다(⑧∼⑦).Subsequently, when the device 100 is removed from the skin after the drug injection, the guide 16 returns to the initial drawn out state, and all the drug injection procedures are completed (8 to ⑦).
이와 같이, 본 발명에서는 약물 주입 시 피부에 닿아 눌려지는 가이드를 스위치로 이용하여 약물을 피부에 주입하는 새로운 약물주입기를 제공함으로써, 별도의 스위치 조작 없이도 약물 주입을 위한 주사 처치를 손쉽게 할 수 있고, 또 약물의 주입량을 정확하게 맞출 수 있으며, 약물 주입 시술을 정확하고 안전하게 할 수 있다. As such, in the present invention, by providing a new injector for injecting the drug into the skin by using a guide pressed against the skin during the drug injection as a switch, injection treatment for drug injection can be easily performed without a separate switch operation In addition, the dose of the drug can be accurately adjusted, and the drug injection procedure can be accurately and safely.
