Description

Technology Field

[0001] The disclosed content relates to a fluid line organizer holder for organizing fluid lines so that the fluid lines do not affect the patient's activity. Background Technology

[0002] Unless otherwise indicated in this specification, the contents described in this section are not prior art for the claims of this application, and are not to be recognized as prior art simply because they are included in this section.

[0004] In general, in medical institutions such as hospitals, intravenous injection therapy is used to supply fluids, drugs, or blood (hereinafter referred to as "fluids, etc.") by directly inserting a needle into a patient's vein to inject them.

[0005] Generally, when fluids are administered to a patient, it takes 1 to 2 hours depending on the volume of the fluid, so a fluid set including a fluid container, fluid line, and needle is placed on a fluid stand for use.

[0006] However, since the IV line connecting the fluid container and the needle in an IV set is relatively long to accommodate the patient's mobility, if it is not properly organized, it can actually cause inconvenience to the patient's movement. In particular, when the patient is being moved, an IV line extended longer than necessary can get caught on the patient's hands or feet, leading to a dangerous situation.

[0007] Despite these circumstances, IV sets or stands are not equipped with means to separately organize or secure the IV line, so patients are currently forced to wrap the line around their hands or hang it on the stand.

[0008] As an example of a solution to resolve such inconvenience, Korean Patent Publication No. 10-2018-0095991 (published August 29, 2018) describes an example of a fluid line fixing device for a fluid stand for hanging a fluid set, which is configured to fix a fluid line to provide a fluid movement path for the fluid stand, comprising: a coupling part detachably coupled to a central bar of the fluid stand; a first fixing part, one side of which is connected to the coupling part and the other side of which forms an open space in the XY plane between it and the one side; and a second fixing part, one side of which is connected to the coupling part and the other side of which forms an open space between it and the one side, but which forms a closed space in the XY plane together with the other side of the first fixing part by contacting the other side facing the first fixing part, and which is formed of a material capable of being restored to its original position after deformation, wherein the fluid line is configured to pass between the first fixing part and the other side of the second fixing part that are in contact with each other and be positioned within the closed space. A fluid line fixing device for a fluid holder is disclosed, characterized by

[0009] In the case of such fluid line fixing devices for fluid stands, they merely fix the fluid line to prevent a portion of the fluid line from arbitrarily deviating outward from the closed space near the center bar of the fluid stand, but lack a configuration to adjust the length of the extended fluid line, which resulted in reduced usability.

[0010] In addition, Korean Patent Publication No. 10-2023-0088143 (published June 19, 2023) discloses a fluid line length adjustment device characterized by comprising a reel cable case in which a fluid line is drawn out on both sides in the longitudinal direction of the fluid line and a winder spring inside which the fluid line is wound, and a fixing device that allows the reel cable case to be mounted on a support of a movable pole, so that when both sides of the fluid line are pulled at once, the fluid line is unwound from both sides of the winder spring and the length of the fluid line increases, and when both sides of the fluid line are pulled once more, the fluid line is wound in from both sides of the winder spring and the length of the fluid line decreases.

[0011] In the case of such an intravenous fluid line length adjustment device, since the intravenous fluid line or the intravenous fluid set containing it must be manufactured in a state where the intravenous fluid line of the intravenous fluid set is configured to unwind or wind on both sides of the winder spring inside the reel cable case, there was a problem in that the manufacturing process of the intravenous fluid line or the intravenous fluid set containing it became complex and the manufacturing cost increased. Prior art literature

[0012] Republic of Korea Patent Publication No. 10-2018-0095991 (Published Aug. 29, 2018) Republic of Korea Patent Publication No. 10-2023-0088143 (Published June 19, 2023) The problem to be solved

[0013] We intend to provide a fluid line organizer that is detachably coupled to a fluid stand, allowing the fluid line to be organized so as not to affect the patient's activity, and at the same time, allows the length of the fluid line to be adjusted so as not to be extended beyond the necessary length.

[0014] In addition, we intend to provide a fluid line organizer holder that can be manufactured at a relatively low cost separately from the fluid line or the fluid set containing it.

[0015] Furthermore, it is evident that the technical challenges are not limited to those described above, and that other technical challenges may be derived from the following description. means of solving the problem

[0016] The disclosed content presents, as an embodiment, a fluid line organizer holder comprising a holder body detachably coupled to a fluid holder, a first line gripping grip protruding from one side of the holder body and into which a part of the fluid line is detachably fitted, and a second line gripping grip protruding from the other side of the holder body and into which another part of the fluid line is detachably fitted.

[0017] According to a preferred feature of the disclosed content, the holder body may have the shape of an elastic split ring with one side open so as to be detachably coupled to the fluid holder.

[0018] According to a preferred feature of the disclosed content, the holder body may be manufactured from a natural resin or synthetic resin material having inherent elasticity, and may be provided with a shape memory alloy inside.

[0019] According to a preferred feature of the disclosed content, the holder body may be formed as an elastic clamp that is detachably coupled to the fluid holder.

[0020] According to a preferred feature of the disclosed content, the first and second line grips may be integrally manufactured from the same material as the holder body and may have the shape of an elastic split ring with one side open so that the fluid line can be detachably connected. Effects of the invention

[0021] According to the IV line organizer as described above, a first line gripping grip to which a part of the IV line is detachably fitted and a second line gripping grip to which another part of the IV line is detachably fitted are formed on a holder body that is detachably coupled to an IV stand. As a result, when the holder body is attached to a specific part of the IV stand and fixed in position, the IV line can be quickly and easily organized without affecting the patient's activity by simply fitting different parts of the IV line into the first and second line gripping grips, and at the same time, the length of the IV line can be adjusted so that the IV line is not extended beyond a necessary length, thus having the advantage of being very convenient to use.

[0022] In addition, the fluid line organizer holder described above has the advantage of being manufactured separately from the fluid line or the fluid set containing it, thereby not compromising the manufacturing process of the fluid line or the fluid set containing it, or increasing manufacturing costs, and having a relatively simple structure in which first and second line gripping grips are formed on a holder body that is detachably coupled to a fluid holder, so it can be manufactured at a relatively low cost.

[0023] The effects of the present invention are not limited to those mentioned above, and other unmentioned effects will be clearly understood by a person skilled in the art from the description in the claims. Brief explanation of the drawing

[0024] FIG. 1 is a diagram showing the usage state of an IV line organizer holder according to one embodiment of the disclosed content. FIG. 2 is a detailed structural diagram of an intravenous fluid line organizer according to one embodiment of the disclosed content. FIG. 3 is a length adjustment operation diagram of an IV line organizer according to one embodiment of the disclosed content. FIG. 4 is a detailed structural diagram of an intravenous fluid line management holder according to one embodiment of the disclosed content, including a holder body of a different form. Specific details for implementing the invention

[0025] Hereinafter, the configuration and effects of a preferred embodiment will be examined with reference to the attached drawings. For reference, in the drawings below, each component is omitted or schematically depicted for convenience and clarity, and the size of each component does not reflect its actual size. Furthermore, throughout the specification, the same reference numerals refer to the same components, and reference numerals for the same configuration in individual drawings will be omitted.

[0027] A fluid line organizer (1) according to one embodiment of the disclosed content is detachably coupled to a fluid holder (2) as shown in FIG. 1 and serves to organize the fluid line (3) so as not to affect the patient's activity, and as shown in FIG. 2 to 4, it includes a holder body (10, 10'), a first line gripping grip (20), and a second line gripping grip (30).

[0028] Here, the holder body (10, 10') forms the body of the fluid line management holder (1) according to one embodiment of the disclosed content and is detachably coupled to the fluid holder (2).

[0029] As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the holder body (10) may have the shape of an elastic split ring with one side open so as to be detachably coupled to the fluid holder (2).

[0030] In this case, it is preferable that the holder body (10) have a shape in which the cross-sectional area decreases toward both ends so that when connected to the fluid holder (2), both sides can be spread apart and then restored to their original state. Additionally, the holder body (10) may be manufactured from a natural resin material having inherent elasticity, such as rubber, or a synthetic resin material having inherent elasticity, such as silicone. Furthermore, to increase the elastic restoring force, a shape memory alloy in the shape of an elastic split ring with one side open may be embedded in the holder body (10) by a method such as insert injection molding.

[0031] In addition, the holder body (10') can be formed as an elastic clamp that is detachably coupled to the fluid holder as shown in FIG. 4.

[0032] In this case, the holder body (10') is formed such that two half-clamp members are joined together by the fitting of an elastic body (11') in the shape of an elastic split ring, and the clamp portion is in close contact while the handle portion is elastically deflected to spread apart. Since the structure of such an elastic clamp is known in clothespins and the like, further detailed description is omitted here for the sake of simplification of the specification.

[0033] Additionally, the holder body (10) may be manufactured from a natural resin material having self-elasticity, such as rubber, or a synthetic resin material having self-elasticity, such as silicone, for example, and depending on the embodiment, it may be manufactured from a hard synthetic resin material having almost no self-elasticity. In the latter case, the inner surface of the clamp portion of the semi-clamp member that is in close contact with the fluid holder (2) may be coated with a natural resin material having self-elasticity, such as rubber, or a synthetic resin material having self-elasticity, such as silicone, for example, so as to prevent surface damage to the fluid holder (2) in advance.

[0034] A first line grip (20) is formed protruding from one side of the outer surface of the aforementioned holder body (10). The first line grip (20) corresponds to a part in which a portion of the fluid line (3) of the fluid set mounted on the fluid holder (2) is detachably fitted and gripped and fixed. It is preferable that the first line grip (20) has the shape of an elastic split ring with one side open so that a portion of the fluid line (3) can be quickly and easily fitted and gripped and fixed.

[0035] It is preferable that this first line grip (20) be manufactured integrally with the same material as the aforementioned holder body (10). In addition, to increase the elastic restoring force, the first line grip (20) may have a shape memory alloy (21) in the shape of an elastic split ring with one side open embedded therein by a method such as insert injection, for example.

[0036] A second line grip (30) is formed protruding from the other side of the aforementioned holder body (10). The second line grip (30) corresponds to a part to which another part of the fluid line (3) of the fluid set mounted on the fluid holder (2) is detachably fitted and gripped and fixed. It is preferable that the second line grip (30) has the shape of an elastic split ring with one side open so that another part of the fluid line (3) can be quickly and easily fitted and gripped and fixed.

[0037] It is preferable that this second line grip (30) be manufactured integrally with the same material as the aforementioned holder body (10). In addition, to increase the elastic restoring force, the second line grip (30) may have a shape memory alloy (31) in the shape of an elastic split ring with one side open embedded therein by a method such as insert injection, for example.

[0039] Accordingly, in the case of the fluid line organizing holder (1) according to one embodiment of the disclosed content, a first line gripping grip (20) into which a part of the fluid line (3) is detachably fitted and a second line gripping grip (30) into which another part of the fluid line (3) is detachably fitted are formed on the holder body (10, 10') which is detachably coupled to the fluid holder (2). As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, when the holder body (10, 10') is fixed in position by fitting it to a specific part of the fluid holder (2), the different parts of the fluid line (3) are simply fitted into the first and second line gripping grips (20, 30), thereby allowing the fluid line (3) to be organized quickly and easily so as not to affect the patient's activity, and at the same time, the length of the fluid line (3) can be adjusted so that it is not extended to a length longer than necessary.

[0040] In addition, the arrangement and length adjustment of the fluid line (3) can be achieved even when the connection position of the holder body (10, 10') to the fluid holder (2) is adjusted without adjusting the fitting connection part of the fluid line (3) to the first and second line grips (20, 30).

[0041] In addition, in the case of the fluid line organizer holder (1) according to one embodiment of the disclosed content, it is manufactured separately from the fluid line (3) or the fluid set including it, so the manufacturing process of the fluid line (3) or the fluid set including it is not restored or the manufacturing cost is not increased, and it can be manufactured at a relatively low cost as it has a relatively simple structure in which the first and second line gripping grips (20, 30) are formed on the holder body (10, 10') which is detachably coupled to the fluid stand (2).
