Description

Technical Field

[0001] This patent relates to the field of medical devices, and particularly to a safety trigger for precision instruments. Background Art

[0002] With the development of science and technology, population growth and aging, there is great room for the development of medical devices. Currently, a variety of automatic injection devices have been developed internationally. These devices can be used for self-administering injections or administering injections to others, and only require triggering the device. Many existing forms of automatic syringes are single-use, but some automatic syringes also allow reloading of hypodermic cartridges.

[0003] In automatic syringes, there are many different triggering methods, including button triggering and squeezing triggering. The button triggering method is that medical staff or patients inject the medicine in the syringe into the human body by pressing the button of the automatic syringe. The squeezing triggering method is to use the pressure generated between the device and the injection site (such as the thigh and abdomen) to activate the automatic syringe, thereby injecting the medicine into the human body. However, when using an automatic syringe with button triggering, the user is very likely to accidentally press the injection button, causing the automatic syringe to start outside the injection site, resulting in waste of the injected medicine and potential medical risks due to incorrect injection positions. When using an automatic syringe with squeezing triggering, the needle will be placed at the injection position. If the squeezing is not in place, the injection cannot be started and it will also cause needle stick injuries. And after the injection is completed, some used medical devices need to be safely recycled. However, it is difficult to determine whether the device can be reused by injecting other medicines after use, thus causing potential medical risks. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a safety trigger to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention

[0042] The retaining piece 422 is a transition bevel retaining piece, that is, the inner side of the transition bevel retaining piece is set as an arc-shaped inclined surface, making it easier for the trigger control sleeve 4 to be connected to the base 1.

[0043] The inner surface and the outer surface of the third long strip-shaped bracket 42 are both arc-shaped surfaces.

[0044] An outer side rib 423 is provided on the outside of the third elongated bracket 42; the three elongated brackets 42 are made more stable by the outer side rib 423.

[0045] An oblique angle is provided at the upper part of the third elongated bracket 42, which makes the connection between the trigger control sleeve 4 and the base 1 more stable.

[0046] Preferably, the through hole 421 is a rectangular through hole, and the size of the through hole is larger than the protruding structure of the first buckle 14.

[0047] Optionally, an annular rib 411 is provided on the outside of the second sleeve 41; by applying a thrust force to the annular rib 411, the second sleeve 41 is moved in the direction of the thrust force to trigger the device.

[0048] The active connection between the base 1 and the device connection sleeve 3 to form a power cavity includes: the first sleeve 31 of the device connection sleeve is arranged between the two bar-shaped brackets 13 of the base, and the second protruding structure 311 of the first sleeve is movably connected to the inner protruding structure 142 of the bar-shaped bracket, and the column cap 11 of the base and the first sleeve 31 of the device connection sleeve form a power cavity.

[0049] The push rod 2 is located inside the power cavity and includes: the spring 23, the first disc 22 of the push rod and the cylindrical body 21 above the first disc are arranged inside the power cavity; the cylindrical body 21 below the first disc is inserted into the round hole 321 of the second disc of the device connection sleeve 3.

[0050] The process of assembling the device includes: inserting the upper part of the cylindrical body 21 of the push rod 2 into the inner cavity of the hollow column 12 of the base 1, and sleeving the upper part of the spring 23 outside the hollow column 12; inserting the lower part of the cylindrical body 21 of the push rod 2 into the round hole 321 of the second disc of the device connection sleeve 3 so that the lower surface of the first disc 22 fits against the upper surface of the second disc 32; the second protruding structure 311 of the device connection sleeve 3 is snap-connected to the inner protruding structure 142 on the base. The trigger control sleeve 4 is arranged outside the base 1, and the third elongated bracket 42 of the trigger control sleeve 4 is attached to the bar-shaped bracket 13 of the base 1, and the retaining piece 422 of the third elongated bracket 42 is connected and fixed to the outer protruding structure 143 of the first buckle 14 to prevent the base 1 from separating from the trigger control sleeve 4, thus completing the assembly of the device.

[0051] As Figure 7As shown, in the initial state of the device, the spring 23 is compressed between the base 1 and the push rod 2. Under the pressure of the spring 23, the first disc 22 and the second disc 32 are closely attached to each other; the outer convex structure 143 of the first buckle 14 is closely attached to the inner surface of the third long strip bracket 42; the inner convex structure 142 of the first buckle 14 is fixed to the second convex structure 311 of the device connecting sleeve 3. In the trigger state of the device: the annular rib 411 of the trigger control sleeve 4 drives the trigger control sleeve 4 to slide towards the base under the action of an external force; when the trigger control sleeve 4 slides a certain distance, the outer convex structure 143 of the base 1 slides into the through hole 421 of the trigger control sleeve 4 to fix the positions of the base 1 and the trigger control sleeve 4; at this time, under the action of the spring pressure, and the first buckle is not blocked by the third long strip bracket 42, so that the second convex structure 311 of the device connecting sleeve 3 gives an outward force to the first buckle of the base, causing the first buckle to deform, so that the second convex structure 311 is separated from the inner convex structure 142 of the base; under the action of the spring pressure, the device connecting sleeve 3 and the push rod 2 are pushed to move away from the base together; at the same time, the precision instrument fixed to the device connecting sleeve 3 by the second inner buckle 311 also moves in the same direction; the corresponding operation process is completed.

[0052] As Figure 8 shown, after the device operation is completed, the device is safely locked. The process includes: disengaging the outer convex structure 143 of the base 1 from the through hole 421 of the trigger control sleeve 4 and moving the trigger control sleeve 4 away from the base 1; when the flap 422 of the trigger control sleeve 4 slides into the outer convex structure 143 of the base 1, the positions of the trigger control sleeve 4 and the base 1 are fixed, and the safe locking of the device is completed.
