 また、動脈側クランプ部65は、生理食塩水を用いたプライミング及び返血工程で開閉される。動脈側クランプ部65は、動脈側可動クランプ部651を進退させて、動脈側ライン21を構成するチューブを押し潰したり開放し、動脈側ライン21の流路を開閉することで、動脈側気泡センサ67よりも上流側において、チューブの内部を流通する液体の送液を流通/停止させる。
The arterial side clamp part 65 configured as described above is arranged between the unit main body 61 and the lid part 62 by the arterial side movable clamp part 651 and the arterial side clamp receiving part 652 during the normal operation of the hemodialysis apparatus 1. The tube forming the arterial line 21 to be clamped is clamped.
Further, the arterial side clamp portion 65 is opened and closed in the priming and blood returning process using physiological saline. The arterial side clamp part 65 moves the arterial side movable clamp part 651 forwards and backwards to crush and open the tube forming the arterial side line 21 and open and close the flow path of the arterial side line 21. On the upstream side of 67, the flow of the liquid flowing through the inside of the tube is made to flow / stop.
 荷重検出部66は、動脈側ライン21を構成するチューブからの圧力による荷重を検出し、電圧値として出力可能である。つまり、チューブが閉塞するとチューブ内の圧力が陽圧または陰圧となり、チューブの径方向が変化し、それと共に荷重が変化し、結果として電圧値の変化として検出される。荷重検出部66は、図7に示すように、荷重押さえ部663と、荷重受け部662と、基板664に配置されたフォースセンサ665と、荷重吸収部80と、を有する。荷重検出部66は閉塞検知装置を構成する。 The load detection unit 66 can detect the load due to the pressure from the tube forming the artery side line 21 and output it as a voltage value. That is, when the tube is closed, the pressure in the tube becomes positive pressure or negative pressure, the radial direction of the tube changes, and the load changes with it, and as a result, it is detected as a change in voltage value. As shown in FIG. 7, the load detector 66 includes a load retainer 663, a load receiver 662, a force sensor 665 arranged on the substrate 664, and a load absorber 80. The load detection unit 66 constitutes a blockage detection device.
 荷重押さえ部663は、図3、図6及び図7に示すように、蓋部62の閉鎖時に、ユニット本体61に配置される荷重受け部662に対向して配置され、動脈側ライン21を構成するチューブを押さえる。なお、荷重押さえ部663は、チューブの径を変更した場合に、荷重検出部66から出力される電圧値が同程度の電圧値を得られるように、高さ調整を可能な構成としてもよいし、高さが異なる荷重押さえ部に交換可能な構成としてもよい。 As shown in FIGS. 3, 6, and 7, the load holding portion 663 is arranged to face the load receiving portion 662 arranged in the unit main body 61 when the lid portion 62 is closed, and constitutes the artery side line 21. Hold down the tube. It should be noted that the load holding unit 663 may have a height-adjustable configuration so that when the diameter of the tube is changed, the voltage values output from the load detecting unit 66 can be similar voltage values. Alternatively, the load holding portions having different heights may be exchangeable.
 荷重受け部662は、蓋部62の閉鎖時に、荷重押さえ部663に押さえられた動脈側ライン21を構成するチューブからの圧力により荷重を受ける。荷重受け部662は、基板664に配置されたフォースセンサ665へ荷重を伝達する。荷重受け部662は、図8に示すように、表面シート部662aと、押圧部662bと、伝達軸部662cと、を有する。表面シート部662aは、チューブ側に配置され、蓋部62の閉鎖時に、動脈側ライン21を構成するチューブに当接される。押圧部662b及び伝達軸部662cは、ユニット本体61の連通穴615に配置される。連通穴615は、ユニット本体61の内面と外面613とを連通して形成されている。表面シート部662a、押圧部662b及び伝達軸部662cは、ユニット本体61の内面側から外面613側に向けてこの順で配置される。 The load receiving portion 662 receives the load due to the pressure from the tube forming the artery side line 21 which is held by the load holding portion 663 when the lid 62 is closed. The load receiving portion 662 transmits the load to the force sensor 665 arranged on the substrate 664. As shown in FIG. 8, the load receiving portion 662 has a surface sheet portion 662a, a pressing portion 662b, and a transmission shaft portion 662c. The surface sheet portion 662a is arranged on the tube side and is brought into contact with the tube forming the artery side line 21 when the lid portion 62 is closed. The pressing portion 662b and the transmission shaft portion 662c are arranged in the communication hole 615 of the unit body 61. The communication hole 615 communicates with the inner surface of the unit body 61 and the outer surface 613. The surface sheet portion 662a, the pressing portion 662b, and the transmission shaft portion 662c are arranged in this order from the inner surface side of the unit body 61 toward the outer surface 613 side.
 フォースセンサ665は、図8に示すように、基板664におけるユニット本体61側に形成される第1面664aに実装(配置)されている。基板664は、ユニット本体61の外面613に取り付けられる。基板664は、連通穴615を塞ぐように、連通穴615が延びる方向に交差するように配置されている。基板664は、ユニット本体61側の第1面664aが、ユニット本体61の外面613に当接され、第1面664aと反対側の第2面664bが、後述する2つのバネ部材82,82によりユニット本体61側に向けて押圧されている。 As shown in FIG. 8, the force sensor 665 is mounted (disposed) on the first surface 664 a formed on the unit body 61 side of the board 664. The substrate 664 is attached to the outer surface 613 of the unit body 61. The board 664 is arranged so as to close the communication hole 615 and intersect with the direction in which the communication hole 615 extends. In the board 664, the first surface 664a on the unit body 61 side is brought into contact with the outer surface 613 of the unit body 61, and the second surface 664b on the side opposite to the first surface 664a is formed by two spring members 82 and 82 described later. It is pressed toward the unit body 61 side.
 フォースセンサ665は、ユニット本体61の外面613側において連通穴615の延長線上に配置されている。連通穴615には、前述の通り、荷重受け部662が配置されている。 The force sensor 665 is arranged on the extension line of the communication hole 615 on the outer surface 613 side of the unit main body 61. The load receiving portion 662 is arranged in the communication hole 615 as described above.
 蓋部62によりユニット本体61を閉じた場合に、蓋部62の荷重押さえ部663とフォースセンサ665との間には、荷重押さえ部663側からフォースセンサ665側に向けて、動脈側ライン21を構成するチューブ及び荷重受け部662がこの順に配置される。 When the unit main body 61 is closed by the lid portion 62, the artery side line 21 is provided between the load holding portion 663 and the force sensor 665 of the lid portion 62 from the load holding portion 663 side toward the force sensor 665 side. The constituent tubes and the load receiving portion 662 are arranged in this order.
 以上のように構成されるフォースセンサ665は、荷重受け部662に作用するチューブからの圧力により、チューブの径方向に荷重受け部662が移動することで、荷重受け部662を介して、チューブからの圧力による荷重を検出する。これにより、フォースセンサ665は、動脈側ライン21を構成するチューブの圧力による荷重を電圧として出力する。 The force sensor 665 configured as described above moves from the tube via the load receiving portion 662 as the load receiving portion 662 moves in the radial direction of the tube due to the pressure applied from the tube to the load receiving portion 662. The load due to the pressure of is detected. Accordingly, the force sensor 665 outputs the load due to the pressure of the tube forming the artery side line 21 as a voltage.
 荷重吸収部80は、図8に示すように、基板664に配置される。荷重吸収部80は、蓋部62によりユニット本体61を閉じて蓋部62とフォースセンサ665との間にチューブが配置された状態において、フォースセンサ665に許容荷重以上(所定値以上)の荷重が掛かった場合に、フォースセンサ665を介して基板664に掛かった荷重を吸収する。荷重吸収部80は、2つのガイドポスト81,81(ガイド部材)と、2つのバネ部材82,82(付勢部材)と、バネ部材82,82を接続する接続部材83と、を有する。 The load absorbing unit 80 is arranged on the substrate 664 as shown in FIG. In the state where the lid body 62 closes the unit main body 61 and the tube is arranged between the lid portion 62 and the force sensor 665, the load absorbing portion 80 applies a load equal to or more than the allowable load (more than a predetermined value) to the force sensor 665. When applied, it absorbs the load applied to the substrate 664 via the force sensor 665. The load absorbing portion 80 includes two guide posts 81 and 81 (guide members), two spring members 82 and 82 (biasing members), and a connecting member 83 that connects the spring members 82 and 82.
 ガイドポスト81及びバネ部材82は、ガイドポスト81及びバネ部材82を1組として構成され、本実施形態においては、2組のガイドポスト81及びバネ部材82が備えられている。2組のガイドポスト81及びバネ部材82は、基板664の面方向において、フォースセンサ665が配置された部分を挟んだ2箇所に離間して配置される。 The guide post 81 and the spring member 82 are configured with the guide post 81 and the spring member 82 as one set, and in the present embodiment, two sets of the guide post 81 and the spring member 82 are provided. The two sets of the guide post 81 and the spring member 82 are arranged apart from each other in the plane direction of the substrate 664 at two positions sandwiching the portion where the force sensor 665 is arranged.
 2つのガイドポスト81,81は、それぞれ、円柱の棒状に形成され、基板664の厚さ方向に延びる。ガイドポスト81は、基板664を厚さ方向に貫通して配置され、基板664を厚さ方向に移動可能に支持する。2つのガイドポスト81,81は、クランプユニット60の幅方向Hに離間して配置される。2つのガイドポスト81,81は、それぞれ、一端側が、ユニット本体61の外面613に形成された取付穴616に挿入されて固定され、他端側が、ユニット本体61の外面613から突出する。2つの取付穴616は、連通穴615と平行に延びて形成され、基板664の面方向において、連通穴615を挟んでクランプユニット60の幅方向Hに離間して配置される。 Each of the two guide posts 81, 81 is formed in a cylindrical rod shape and extends in the thickness direction of the substrate 664. The guide post 81 is arranged to penetrate the substrate 664 in the thickness direction and supports the substrate 664 so as to be movable in the thickness direction. The two guide posts 81, 81 are arranged apart from each other in the width direction H of the clamp unit 60. One end side of each of the two guide posts 81, 81 is inserted and fixed in a mounting hole 616 formed in the outer surface 613 of the unit body 61, and the other end side thereof projects from the outer surface 613 of the unit body 61. The two mounting holes 616 are formed to extend in parallel with the communication hole 615, and are arranged in the width direction H of the clamp unit 60 so as to sandwich the communication hole 615 in the surface direction of the substrate 664.
 接続部材83は、クランプユニット60の幅方向Hに延びる板状に形成される。接続部材83は、2つのガイドポスト81,81の他端側の端部同士を接続する。接続部材83の両端部は、それぞれ、ネジ811により、ガイドポスト81の他端部に固定されている。 The connecting member 83 is formed in a plate shape extending in the width direction H of the clamp unit 60. The connecting member 83 connects the ends of the two guide posts 81, 81 on the other end side. Both ends of the connecting member 83 are fixed to the other end of the guide post 81 by screws 811.
 2つのバネ部材82,82は、図8に示すように、それぞれ、ガイドポスト81に外装されるコイル状に形成される。バネ部材82は、基板664の第2面664bと接続部材83との間において伸縮可能に配置される。バネ部材82は、フォースセンサ665に許容荷重以上の荷重が掛かった場合に、フォースセンサ665に掛かった荷重を吸収する側への基板664の移動を許容しつつ、フォースセンサ665に許容荷重未満の荷重が掛かった場合に、フォースセンサ665が検出位置に位置するように基板664を付勢する。 As shown in FIG. 8, the two spring members 82, 82 are each formed in a coil shape to be mounted on the guide post 81. The spring member 82 is arranged so as to be capable of expanding and contracting between the second surface 664b of the substrate 664 and the connecting member 83. The spring member 82 allows the force sensor 665 to move to a side that absorbs the load applied to the force sensor 665 when the load applied to the force sensor 665 is greater than the allowable load, and the force sensor 665 has a load less than the allowable load. When a load is applied, the substrate 664 is urged so that the force sensor 665 is located at the detection position.
 これにより、フォースセンサ665に許容荷重以上の荷重が掛かった場合にフォースセンサ665に掛かった荷重を吸収する側への基板664の移動を許容することで、フォースセンサ665に許容荷重以上(所定値以上)の荷重が掛かることを抑制できる。本実施形態においては、バネ部材82のバネ定数は、フォースセンサ665に許可荷重未満の荷重が掛かった場合には縮小せずに、フォースセンサ665に許容荷重以上の荷重が掛かった場合のみに縮小される値が設定される。 As a result, when the force sensor 665 is applied with a load equal to or larger than the allowable load, the force sensor 665 is allowed to move toward the side that absorbs the load applied to the force sensor 665. It is possible to suppress the above load. In the present embodiment, the spring constant of the spring member 82 is not reduced when the force sensor 665 is applied with a load less than the allowable load, and is reduced only when the force sensor 665 is applied with a load equal to or greater than the allowable load. Value is set.
 以上のように構成される荷重吸収部80においては、クランプユニット60にチューブを配置する場合、チューブをユニット本体61と蓋部62との間に配置する際に、フォースセンサ665に許容荷重以上の荷重が掛かった場合に、バネ部材82より基板664の厚さ方向への荷重を吸収できる。そのため、フォースセンサ665に許容荷重以上(所定値以上)の荷重が掛かることを抑制できる。よって、フォースセンサ665の破損を防げる。 In the load absorbing portion 80 configured as described above, when the tube is arranged in the clamp unit 60, when the tube is arranged between the unit main body 61 and the lid portion 62, the force sensor 665 has a load larger than the allowable load. When a load is applied, the spring member 82 can absorb the load in the thickness direction of the substrate 664. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the force sensor 665 from being applied with a load equal to or more than the allowable load (equal to or more than a predetermined value). Therefore, damage to the force sensor 665 can be prevented.
 また、クランプユニット60の通常の使用状態において、フォースセンサ665に掛かる荷重は許容荷重未満の荷重であるため、荷重吸収部80のバネ部材82は縮小しない。つまり、通常の使用状態においては、荷重吸収部80のバネ部材82は縮小せずに、フォースセンサ665が検出位置に位置するように保持されるため、フォースセンサ665は、チューブからの圧力による荷重を正常に検出できる。これにより、荷重吸収部80は、通常の使用状態において、フォースセンサ665によるチューブからの圧力による荷重の検出には影響を与えない。 In addition, since the load applied to the force sensor 665 is less than the allowable load when the clamp unit 60 is normally used, the spring member 82 of the load absorbing section 80 does not shrink. That is, in a normal use state, the spring member 82 of the load absorbing portion 80 is held so that the force sensor 665 is located at the detection position without being contracted. Therefore, the force sensor 665 applies the load due to the pressure from the tube. Can be normally detected. Accordingly, the load absorbing unit 80 does not affect the detection of the load due to the pressure from the tube by the force sensor 665 in the normal use state.
 よって、クランプユニット60の通常の使用状態において、蓋部62の閉鎖時に、蓋部62が動脈側ライン21を構成するチューブをフォースセンサ665側に押さえ付けることで、フォースセンサ665がチューブからの圧力による荷重を検出して、荷重を電圧値として出力する。荷重検出部66により検出された検出値は、制御装置50に送信されて、チューブが閉塞しているか否かが判定される。チューブが閉塞する場合としては、例えば、血液回路の接続後において鉗子を外し忘れた場合や、治療中の返血時の血栓による針先の詰まりや、脱血/透析時の針先の血管壁への張り付きや、脱血/透析/返血時の血管状態による血流量不足などを挙げることができる。 Therefore, in the normal use state of the clamp unit 60, when the lid portion 62 is closed, the lid portion 62 presses the tube forming the artery side line 21 toward the force sensor 665 side, so that the force sensor 665 presses the pressure from the tube. The load is detected and the load is output as a voltage value. The detection value detected by the load detection unit 66 is transmitted to the control device 50, and it is determined whether or not the tube is closed. Examples of the case where the tube is blocked include, for example, forgetting to remove the forceps after connecting the blood circuit, clogging of the needle tip due to a thrombus when returning blood during treatment, and blood vessel wall of the needle tip during blood removal / dialysis. And the lack of blood flow due to blood vessel conditions during blood removal / dialysis / returning blood.
 動脈側気泡センサ押さえ部材674は、図3及び図6に示すように、蓋部62の閉鎖時において、ユニット本体61に配置される動脈側気泡センサ受け部材672に対向して配置され、動脈側ライン21を構成するチューブを押さえる。動脈側気泡センサ押さえ部材674の内部には、超音波受信部673が配置される。動脈側気泡センサ受け部材672の内部には、超音波発振部671が配置される。超音波受信部673及び超音波発振部671は、動脈側気泡センサ67を構成する。動脈側気泡センサ67は、動脈側ライン21の内部を流通する液体中に含まれる気泡の有無を検知するセンサである。なお、超音波受信部673を動脈側気泡センサ受け部材672の内部に配置すると共に、超音波発振部671を動脈側気泡センサ押さえ部材674の内部に配置するように構成してもよい。 As shown in FIGS. 3 and 6, the arterial-side bubble sensor pressing member 674 is arranged so as to face the arterial-side bubble sensor receiving member 672 arranged in the unit main body 61 when the lid 62 is closed. Hold down the tubes that make up the line 21. An ultrasonic wave reception unit 673 is arranged inside the artery-side bubble sensor holding member 674. An ultrasonic oscillator 671 is arranged inside the arterial bubble sensor receiving member 672. The ultrasonic wave receiving unit 673 and the ultrasonic wave oscillating unit 671 form an artery side air bubble sensor 67. The arterial bubble sensor 67 is a sensor that detects the presence or absence of bubbles contained in the liquid flowing inside the artery line 21. The ultrasonic wave receiving unit 673 may be arranged inside the artery-side bubble sensor receiving member 672, and the ultrasonic wave oscillating unit 671 may be arranged inside the artery-side bubble sensor holding member 674.
 蓋部62の閉鎖時に、動脈側気泡センサ押さえ部材674(図3参照)は、動脈側ライン21を構成するチューブを動脈側気泡センサ受け部材672側に押し当てる。超音波受信部673は、超音波発振部671から発生される超音波が動脈側ライン21を構成するチューブ内に流れる液体に照射されることで、液体と気泡の透過率の差を検出して気泡の有無を検知する。 When the lid 62 is closed, the arterial bubble sensor pressing member 674 (see FIG. 3) presses the tube forming the arterial line 21 against the arterial bubble sensor receiving member 672. The ultrasonic wave receiving unit 673 detects the difference in the transmittance between the liquid and the bubbles by irradiating the liquid flowing in the tube forming the artery side line 21 with the ultrasonic wave generated from the ultrasonic wave oscillating unit 671. Detects the presence of bubbles.
 動脈側下流チューブ押さえ部602の押さえ凸部602bは、蓋部62の閉鎖時において、ユニット本体61に配置される収容凹部602aに対向して配置され、クランプユニット60における動脈側ライン21を流通する液体の下流側(図3における上方側)において、動脈側ライン21を構成するチューブを押さえる。 The pressing convex portion 602b of the artery-side downstream tube pressing portion 602 is arranged so as to face the accommodating concave portion 602a arranged in the unit main body 61 when the lid portion 62 is closed, and circulates through the artery-side line 21 in the clamp unit 60. On the downstream side (upper side in FIG. 3) of the liquid, the tube forming the artery side line 21 is pressed.

 そのため、チューブをユニット本体61と蓋部62との間に配置する際に、フォースセンサ665に許容荷重以上の荷重が掛かることを抑制できる。そのため、許容荷重未満の荷重が基板664に掛かった場合にチューブからの圧力によるフォースセンサ665の荷重の検出には影響を与えずに、フォースセンサ665に許容荷重以上の荷重が掛かることを抑制できる。これにより、フォースセンサ665の破損を抑制できる。

Therefore, when a force equal to or greater than the allowable load is applied to the force sensor 665, the load from the spring member 82 in the thickness direction of the substrate 664 is guided by the guide post 81 so that the substrate 664 can move in the thickness direction. Can be absorbed. This makes it possible to absorb the load applied to the force sensor 665 with a simple configuration.
 (3)2組のバネ部材82及びガイドポスト81は、基板664の面方向におけるフォースセンサ665が配置された部分を挟んだ2箇所に配置される。これにより、フォースセンサ665を挟んだ2箇所において、2組のバネ部材82及びガイドポスト81により、基板664の厚さ方向への荷重を吸収できる。よって、フォースセンサ665に掛かる荷重を安定して吸収させることができる。 (3) The two sets of spring members 82 and guide posts 81 are arranged at two positions in the plane direction of the substrate 664, sandwiching the part where the force sensor 665 is arranged. As a result, the load in the thickness direction of the substrate 664 can be absorbed by the two sets of the spring member 82 and the guide post 81 at two positions sandwiching the force sensor 665. Therefore, the load applied to the force sensor 665 can be stably absorbed.
 (4)荷重吸収部80は、2つのガイドポスト81を接続する接続部材83を更に有する。これにより、2つのガイドポスト81の平行状態を保つことができ、2つのガイドポスト81にガイドされる基板644を厚さ方向にスムーズに移動させることができる。これにより、フォースセンサ665に掛かる荷重を安定して吸収させることができる。 (4) The load absorbing portion 80 further includes a connecting member 83 that connects the two guide posts 81. As a result, the two guide posts 81 can be kept parallel to each other, and the substrate 644 guided by the two guide posts 81 can be smoothly moved in the thickness direction.
