Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of drug infusion, in particular to a spiral type drug storage mechanism and a patch type injection pump. BACKGROUND

[0002] The patch pump is an integrated device for infusing drugs, which combines most or all structures such as a fluid reservoir, a pumping mechanism and a mechanism for automatically inserting a cannula in a cylinder body that is adhesively attached to an infusion site on the skin of a patient, saving the use of a separate infusion or tubing.

[0003] The conventional patch pump usually adopts a plunger pump principle, in which a driving mechanism applies force to a plunger through a push rod in a linear motion form, so that the plunger moves linearly to dispense the drug out of a drug chamber. The patch pump adopting the plunger pump principle has a relatively large axial volume of the reservoir, which makes the patient feel uncomfortable when wearing it.

[0004] In order to reduce the size of the injection pump, there is also a scheme of adopting an arc-shaped drug storage mechanism, which changes the straight type of the liquid storage cylinder to an arc shape, so that the axial size of the liquid storage cylinder can be smaller under the premise of the same liquid storage capacity. For example, the injection pump disclosed in the patent application file with the publication number CN103313741A adopts an arc-shaped liquid storage cylinder in the shape of a ring-shaped tube segment, and a driving component drives the piston to move in the arc-shaped liquid storage cylinder. At present, the drug storage mechanism with the arc-shaped cylinder all adopts a horizontal type of arc-shaped cylinder, i.e. the circumferential axis of the arc-shaped cylinder is located on the same horizontal plane. The horizontal type of arc-shaped drug storage mechanism controls the arrangement of the arc-shaped cavity to extend in the horizontal plane. Considering the need to reserve sufficient movement space for the driving component in the circumferential direction of the same plane as the arc-shaped cylinder, the maximum arc of the arc-shaped cylinder can only be 180°, and mostly less than 180°. Limited by the arrangement space of the arc-shaped cylinder, when the liquid storage capacity requirement is large, even if the arc-shaped cylinder is set to the limit of 180°, it cannot meet the requirement of the liquid storage capacity. Therefore, the arc-shaped cylinder can only seek to expand the radial size to expand the liquid storage capacity, which will cause the increase of the radial size of the pump body. The increase of the radial size will reduce the advantage of the reduction of the axial size of the arc-shaped cylinder, resulting in that the patch pump cannot obtain the desired optimized size, and the patient still feels uncomfortable when wearing it.
