Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a protective cover for medical devices, and more particularly to a constant temperature cover for an insulin pump, belonging to the technical field of medical device design. Background Art

[0002] The basic use of an insulin pump is to simulate the secretion function of the pancreas and continuously inject insulin into the subcutaneous tissue (usually the abdominal wall) of the patient according to the required dose of the human body, so that the patient can maintain stable blood sugar throughout the day to achieve the purpose of controlling diabetes. The insulin pump mainly consists of a pump, a small syringe and an infusion tube connected thereto. Its shape and size are similar to those of an MP3 player. The insulin pump is provided with a drug reservoir for accommodating short-acting or rapid-acting insulin, an external display screen and buttons. The buttons are used to set the program of the insulin pump and sensitively inject the insulin in the drug reservoir into the patient's body through the infusion tube. The infusion tube tightly connects the insulin pump and the human body to ensure the smooth injection of insulin.

[0003] At present, insulin pumps have been widely used in clinics. When ordinary patients use them, the insulin pump is generally placed in a clothes pocket or installed in a protective cover. However, there are the following deficiencies in actual use: 1. It does not have a button protection function, and the buttons of the insulin pump may be accidentally pressed; 2. The protective cover is not waterproof, which is inconvenient for the wearer to take a bath; 3. The shape is single and the function is simple; 4. It does not have a heat preservation function, and the insulin in the pump is easily affected by temperature difference; 5. The concealment is poor, which affects the beauty when going out and is easily discovered by passers-by, resulting in discomfort for the patient; 6. It is inconvenient during CT and MRI examinations; 7. The infusion tube is generally relatively long, and it is easy to knot, be pressed and folded, resulting in abnormal insulin infusion and affecting the normal operation of the insulin pump.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to design a constant temperature cover for an insulin pump that can solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0026] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the specific drawings and embodiments.

[0027] As Figures 1 to 4 shown, the embodiment discloses an insulin pump thermostatic cover, including a cover body 1. An inlet for loading an insulin pump is provided at the top of the cover body 1. The fabric 11 of the cover body 1 is made of a medical radiation-proof fabric, and a heat-insulating material is provided on the inner surface of the fabric 11; a waterproof zipper 2 is provided at the inlet. A flip cover 3 straddling the top of the flip cover 3 is provided at the top of the cover body 1. One end of the flip cover 3 is fixedly connected to the back of the cover body 1, and the other end of the flip cover 3 is movably and detachably connected to the front of the cover body 1; a pipe hole 4 for leading out an infusion tube is provided at the position corresponding to the front of the cover body 1 on the flip cover 3, and when the flip cover 3 is closed, the height of the pipe hole 4 should be lower than that of the waterproof zipper 2; a luminous marking strip 5 is provided at the position below the other end of the flip cover 3 on the front of the cover body 1.

[0028] In specific use, first open the flip cover 3, unzip the waterproof zipper 2, and load the insulin pump into the cover body 1; then pass the infusion tube through the pipe hole 4, and connect the other end of the infusion tube to the patient's subcutaneous tissue. Since the fabric 11 of the cover body 1 is made of a radiation-proof fabric, the insulin can be prevented from being affected by radiation during CT and MRI examinations. Since a heat-insulating material is provided on the inner surface of the fabric 11, the problem that the temperature difference has an adverse effect on insulin when a patient using an insulin pump goes out for an examination or takes a walk can be solved. The waterproof zipper 2 has good sealing performance, and the patient does not have to worry about water entering when wearing it while taking a bath, and it is safe, reliable and convenient to use; moreover, when the flip cover 3 is closed, it will also cover the inlet, providing an additional guarantee for the waterproof performance. The pipe hole 4 is located above the flip cover 3 and lower than the inlet, which can prevent water from flowing back from the pipe hole 4 and further improve the waterproof sealing performance. In addition, a flap-type cover 6 is installed at the pipe hole 4, which is also beneficial to blocking the entry of water. The luminous strip provided on the surface of the cover body 1 enables the patient wearing the insulin pump to be discovered in the dark in time.

[0029] The radiation-proof fabric in the present invention can adopt existing technical products, such as a metal fiber blended material. It can also adopt the fabric of the medical isolation gown in CN201910020533.9. The fabric of the medical isolation gown is a multi-layer structure, which is successively a protective layer, a radiation-proof layer and a fabric base layer from top to bottom, and the protective layer, the radiation-proof layer and the fabric base layer are adhesively bonded by hot pressing.

[0030] As Figure 3 shown, in this embodiment, two buckles 7 for connecting shoulder straps are symmetrically arranged on both sides above the back of the cover body 1; a buckle 8 for passing a belt, a waistband or a magic tape strap is provided in the middle of the back of the cover body 1. With such a setting, this product can be equipped with shoulder straps and carried in a slanting hanging form. The insulin pump is hidden in the protective cover, which is very concealed and will not attract strange looks from others. It can also be worn on the waist for convenient carrying. During CT and MRI examinations and when taking a bath, it can also be fixed on the arm with a magic tape strap.

[0031] As Figure 4 shown, in this embodiment, the thermal insulation material includes an EPE composite aluminum foil reflective heat insulation layer 9 and a non-woven fabric layer 10. The EPE composite aluminum foil reflective heat insulation layer 9 is adhesively fixed on the inner surface of the fabric 11 of the sleeve body 1, and the non-woven fabric layer 10 is covered and bonded on the EPE composite aluminum foil reflective heat insulation layer 9. With such a setting, the EPE composite aluminum foil reflective heat insulation layer 9 has excellent heat loss prevention performance. After verification by actual samples, the heat preservation time can be up to 6 hours, which is sufficient to meet the heat preservation needs of insulin pump users when going out for examinations or taking walks.

[0032] Embodiment 2

[0033] As Figure 5 、 Figure 6 shown, Embodiment 2 discloses an insulin pump thermostatic sleeve, which is different from Embodiment 1 in that: an insulin pump fixing shell 13 is further installed inside the sleeve body 1. With such a setting, by installing the insulin pump in the insulin pump fixing shell 13, the insulin pump can be prevented from moving randomly. In this way, the insulin pump thermostatic sleeve can be made in the form of a fashionable backpack with a shoulder strap 12. In addition to placing the insulin pump, other items can also be placed, and the concealment is better.

[0034] As Figure 5 、 Figure 6 shown, in this embodiment, an insulin pump fixing shell 13 is provided inside the sleeve body 1. The front of the insulin pump fixing shell 13 is open so that the display screen and buttons of the insulin pump are exposed; a buckle 14 is provided on the back of the insulin pump fixing shell 13 for snap-fitting and fixing inside the sleeve body 1; a hook rack 15 for winding the pipeline is provided beside the buckle 14, and a switch hole 16 for the opening of the insulin pump to be exposed is provided at the top of the insulin pump fixing shell 13. The switch hole 16 is a waist-shaped hole; infusion tube outlets 17 are provided on both sides of the insulin pump fixing shell 13, and the infusion tube outlets 17 on both sides are symmetrically arranged diagonally. With such a setting, this insulin pump fixing shell 13 can be applicable to various models of insulin pumps [Dana insulin pump, Fulia insulin pump, Medtronic insulin pump, etc.]. The hook rack 15 provided beside the buckle 14 can wind the too-long infusion tube on it to avoid the infusion tube from being knotted, pressed or folded, ensuring the smoothness of the pipeline.

[0035] As Figure 5 、 6 shown, in this embodiment, in order to facilitate the removal of the insulin pump, a pump removal port 18 is further provided at the lower side edge of the back of the insulin pump fixing shell 13. When the insulin pump needs to be removed, only need to press the insulin pump at the pump removal port 18 with fingers, and the insulin pump can be conveniently and labor-savingly removed.

[0036] AsFigure 5 , Figure 6 As shown, in this embodiment, the length direction of the buckle 14 on the back of the insulin pump fixing shell 13 is parallel to the long side direction of the insulin pump fixing shell 13. With such a setting, it is convenient to place the insulin pump vertically, so that air is not easily introduced into the medicine reservoir of the insulin pump.

[0037] The above-described are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention, and the above specific embodiments are not limitations on the present invention. Various deformations and modifications can occur within the technical idea scope of the present invention. Any retouching, modification, or equivalent replacement made by those of ordinary skill in the art according to the above description shall fall within the scope protected by the present invention.
