Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of medical devices, and in particular to an injection pen. Background Art
[0002] An injection pen is a drug delivery device widely used to treat chronic conditions such as diabetes and growth hormone deficiency. Resembling a fountain pen, it houses a drug reservoir (which contains a cartridge containing the medication) and an injection mechanism. Compared to traditional syringes, the injection pen is more portable and significantly improves patient compliance.
[0003] As shown in the Chinese invention patent application number CN201980072531.2, the existing injection pen has the following problems: 1. Its transmission structure is too complicated and involves many parts, which not only increases the difficulty of production and assembly, but also increases the unreliability of the transmission; 2. The overly complicated transmission of components may cause the transmission components to wear or slip after several adjustments, resulting in a deviation between the actual set dose and the desired set dose; 3. Even if the actual set dose is consistent with the value of the desired set dose, the existing injection pen uses a mechanical transmission to drive a small screw to press the medicine bottle to complete the injection of the specified dose. Due to the possibility of wear or slippage in the mechanical transmission, During the transmission process, the actually set dose may not be fully converted into the feed amount of the small screw, resulting in an error in the actual injection dose, affecting the patient's treatment effect; 4. For ease of operation, after completing an injection, existing injection pens usually use an automatic reset method to reset the dose adjustment device to the initial dose adjustment position. Due to the large number of parts, during the reset process, the transmission parts may not be fully reset or even cannot be reset at all due to wear, slippage, etc., which makes it impossible for the injection pen to accurately adjust the dose next time. The injection pen may not be used again, and the drugs in the injection pen and the medicine chamber are wasted prematurely, increasing the burden on patients. Summary of the Invention
[0004] Purpose of the invention: The purpose of the present invention is to provide an injection pen that can maintain reliable working conditions and achieve accurate injection.
[0005] Technical Solution: The injection pen disclosed herein comprises a housing and a dose adjustment device. The dose adjustment device includes a toggle lever, which is coaxial with the housing and rotatable relative to the housing. The inner wall of the housing is provided with a plurality of toggle locking grooves along a circumferential direction. The toggle lever is provided with a plurality of elastic plungers that elastically deform in the radial direction, the positions of the elastic plungers corresponding to the positions of the toggle locking grooves. The pen also includes a pressing and resetting device for injecting and resetting the toggle lever, the pressing and resetting device being connected to the toggle lever. The elastic plungers are configured to extend into the toggle locking grooves using elastic force to lock the relative position of the toggle lever and the housing. The elastic plungers can be provided in various styles, including a single elastic member or a combination of an elastic member and other components.
[0006] Furthermore, the pressing and resetting device includes a button and an injection spring, the button is detachably connected to the end of the toggle rod away from the injection end, one end of the injection spring acts on the button, and the other end of the injection spring acts on the shell to abut.
[0007] Furthermore, a hollow adjustment knob is disposed outside the housing, the adjustment knob abutting one end of the housing, one end of the injection spring abutting the button, and the other end of the injection spring abutting the adjustment knob. The adjustment knob abutting one end of the housing ensures that the relative position of the adjustment knob and the housing along the central axis remains unchanged during injection. Therefore, the adjustment knob can be considered a part of the housing along the central axis. When the button is pressed to inject, the injection spring is compressed and stores energy, exerting an upward elastic force (i.e., in the direction opposite to the pressing direction). After the injection is completed, the button, under the action of the injection spring, drives the toggle lever to reset, and the outer toggle projection on the toggle lever resumes engagement with the inner knob projection within the adjustment knob, facilitating the next dose adjustment.
[0008] Furthermore, the inner wall of the adjustment knob is provided with a plurality of knob transmission devices, and the outer wall of the toggle rod is provided with a plurality of toggle transmission devices adapted to mate with the knob transmission devices. When the knob transmission devices and the toggle transmission devices engage, the present invention is in the first position (adjustment position). At this point, rotating the adjustment knob drives the adjustment rod to rotate about its central axis. When an injection is required, the button is pressed, mechanically transmitting the force until the dial cover engages with the drive device. This engagement of the dial cover and the drive device represents the present invention's second position (injection position).
[0009] Furthermore, the knob transmission device comprises a plurality of tooth-shaped inner knob protrusions, which protrude radially from the adjustment knob toward the inner cavity of the adjustment knob. The toggle transmission device comprises a plurality of tooth-shaped outer toggle protrusions, which protrude radially outward from the toggle rod. The inner knob protrusions are configured to engage with the outer toggle protrusions. The inner knob protrusions and the outer toggle protrusions cooperate to serve two functions: 1. After the inner knob protrusions engage with the outer toggle protrusions, the adjustment knob can drive the toggle rod to rotate during rotation, thereby accumulating force in the dose spring; and 2. After injection begins, the toggle rod moves along the central axis toward the injection end, while the adjustment knob does not move along the central axis. The inner knob protrusions guide the outer toggle protrusions, assisting in the displacement of the toggle rod.
[0010] Furthermore, the toggle rod is movably connected to the housing, so that the toggle rod can be retracted relative to the housing along the central axis of the housing.
[0011] Furthermore, each elastic plunger includes a locking member and an elastic member, with the bottom of the locking member abutting against the elastic member (e.g., a locking spring). The locking member can be in a variety of forms, including a spherical solid such as a sphere or hemisphere, a regular solid such as a cube or trapezoid, or other irregularly shaped solids.
[0012] Furthermore, the toggle lever is provided with a toggle disk, a locking groove is defined in the toggle disk, one end of the elastic plunger abuts against the bottom of the locking groove, and the other end of the elastic plunger abuts against the locking member. For example, if the locking member included in the elastic plunger is a locking ball and the elastic member is a locking spring, one end of the locking spring abuts against the bottom of the locking groove, and the other end of the locking spring abuts against the locking ball.
[0013] Furthermore, the toggle rod is provided with a detachable dial cover at one end close to the injection end, and a plurality of dial positioning devices are provided on the side of the dial cover close to the injection end. The toggle rod also includes a driving device coaxial with the toggle rod, and the driving device is located on the side of the toggle rod close to the injection end. The driving device is provided with a plurality of driving positioning devices cooperating with the dial positioning device at one end close to the toggle rod.
[0014] Furthermore, the dial positioning device is a dial positioning protrusion protruding along the direction of the central axis toward the driving device, and the driving positioning device is a driving positioning groove, and the dial positioning protrusion corresponds to the driving positioning groove in position.
[0015] Furthermore, the dial positioning device is a dial positioning inner protrusion arranged on the inner wall of the dial cover, and the dial positioning inner protrusion protrudes toward the inner cavity of the dial cover along the radial direction of the dial cover. The drive positioning device is a drive positioning outer protrusion arranged on the outer wall of the drive device, and the drive positioning outer protrusion protrudes outward along the radial direction of the drive device. The dial positioning inner protrusion is used to engage with the drive positioning outer protrusion.
[0016] Furthermore, the device further includes a small screw, which is connected to the interior of the drive unit via a spiral drive. The spiral drive refers to a spiral guide protrusion provided on the inner wall of the drive unit, a spiral stepping groove formed on the outer periphery of the small screw, the guide protrusion matching the spiral angle of the stepping groove, and a sliding connection between the guide protrusion and the stepping groove. When the small screw rotates, it is guided by the guide protrusion and displaced along the central axis of the small screw toward the injection end. The small screw is used to press the piston in the cartridge to achieve injection.
[0017] Furthermore, the small screw is provided with a snap-fit groove, and the drive device includes a screw guide sleeve and a drive sleeve. The inner wall of the drive sleeve is provided with a snap-fit protrusion that cooperates with the snap-fit groove, and the snap-fit protrusion extends into the snap-fit groove. The inner wall of the screw guide sleeve is provided with a spiral guide protrusion. The screw guide sleeve is detachably connected to the housing via a snap fastener. The snap-fit groove extends along the axial direction of the small screw. The snap-fit protrusion and the snap-fit groove cooperate to enable the drive sleeve to drive the small screw to rotate. When injection is performed, the dial cover engages with the drive sleeve, and the toggle rod drives the drive sleeve to rotate. The drive sleeve is driven by the snap-fit protrusion and the snap-fit groove to drive the small screw to rotate. The small screw is guided by the guide protrusion on the inner wall of the screw guide sleeve and moves toward the injection end along the direction of the small screw's central axis.
[0018] Furthermore, the small screw is provided with a limiting tooth, which is connected to the small screw via a spiral drive. That is, a spiral limiting protrusion is also provided inside the limiting tooth, and the limiting protrusion matches the angle of the spiral stepping groove formed on the outer circumference of the small screw, and the limiting protrusion and the stepping groove are slidingly connected.
[0019] Furthermore, a plurality of limiting protrusions are evenly distributed on the periphery of the limiting teeth, a plurality of first limiting sliding grooves for sliding connection with the limiting protrusions are arranged inside the toggle rod, and the limiting protrusions are slidably connected with the first limiting sliding grooves.
[0020] Furthermore, a screw limiting block is provided on the small screw for limiting contact with the limiting tooth.
[0021] Furthermore, the screw guide sleeve is located on a side of the drive sleeve close to the injection end.
[0022] Furthermore, a dose spring is sleeved on the outer wall of the toggle rod, one end of the dose spring is fixedly connected to the toggle rod, and the other end of the dose spring is fixedly connected to the housing. When the toggle rod rotates around its central axis, the dose spring twists, thereby storing force.
[0023] Furthermore, the toggle lever is fixedly connected to the hollow sleeve, and a spring retaining buckle is sleeved on the outer wall of the toggle lever. One end of the dose spring is fixedly connected to the sleeve, and the other end of the dose spring is fixedly connected to the spring retaining buckle. The dose spring is a torsion spring. In this case, the toggle lever and sleeve can be considered to be integral, and the spring retaining buckle is fixedly connected to the housing. The spring retaining buckle can also be considered to be integral with the housing.
[0024] Furthermore, the shell is provided with an outer cover window, the outer wall of the toggle rod is connected to the scale cylinder, the outer wall of the scale cylinder is provided with a plurality of scales, and the outer wall of the scale cylinder corresponds to the position of the outer cover window.
[0025] Furthermore, the toggle rod is fixedly connected to the hollow sleeve, the outer wall of the sleeve is provided with a plurality of cylinder-sleeve connecting parts, the inner wall of the scale cylinder is provided with a plurality of engraved cylinder connecting parts for connecting with the cylinder-sleeve connecting parts, and the positions of the engraved cylinder connecting parts correspond to those of the cylinder-sleeve connecting parts.
[0026] Furthermore, the tube-sleeve connecting portion is a tube-sleeve convex block, the engraved tube connecting portion is an inner groove of the engraved tube, and the tube-sleeve convex block extends into the inner groove of the engraved tube.
[0027] Furthermore, the cylinder-sleeve connecting portion is a cylinder-sleeve groove, the engraved cylinder connecting portion is an engraved cylinder convex block, and the engraved cylinder convex block extends into the cylinder-sleeve groove.
[0028] Furthermore, a sliding window is provided on the outer surface of the graduated cylinder. The sliding window is provided with a plurality of movable windows corresponding to the outer cover windows. The graduated cylinder is slidably connected to the sliding window.
[0029] Furthermore, the outer wall of the graduated cylinder is provided with a spiral outer groove, and the inner wall of the sliding window is provided with a spiral moving protrusion. The spiral angle of the outer groove matches that of the moving protrusion, and the outer groove is slidably connected to the moving protrusion.
[0030] Furthermore, the outer wall of the sliding window is provided with a sliding rib, the inner wall of the housing is provided with an inner housing slideway, and the sliding rib is slidably connected to the inner housing slideway. The sliding rib-inner housing slideway sliding connection allows the sliding window to slide only along the direction of the inner housing slideway.
[0031] Furthermore, the direction of the inner-shell slideway is parallel to the central axis of the shell.
[0032] Furthermore, it also includes a positioning ring that is sleeved on the outside of the toggle rod, and the positioning ring is used to limit the sliding window. The positioning ring is located on the side of the sliding window away from the injection end, between the sliding window and the adjustment knob. The positioning ring is ring-shaped, and the positioning ring is detachably connected to the shell by a snap.
[0033] Furthermore, an inner limit block is provided on the inner wall of the shell, and the inner limit block is used to limit the sliding window and is located on a side of the sliding window close to the injection end.
[0034] The invention has the following significant advantages over the prior art: 1. The invention has a simple structure and fewer transmission parts, which is convenient for workers to produce and assemble, and also improves the reliability of transmission; 2. When adjusting the dose, the user rotates the adjusting knob, and the adjusting knob drives the toggle rod to rotate through the knob transmission device, and the elastic plunger is squeezed by the shell and contracts toward the toggle rod. Since the bottom of the elastic plunger is made of an elastic member, the wear between the elastic plunger and the shell is less, and the transmission is more accurate during the dose adjustment process, ensuring that the actual set dose is consistent with the desired set dose; 3. After the dose is adjusted, the elastic plunger extends into the locking groove to lock the relative position of the toggle rod and the shell, preventing the toggle rod from rotating under the action of the dose spring, thereby keeping the relative position relationship between the toggle rod and the shell stable, and ensuring the accuracy of the injection dose; 4. After the injection is completed, release the button, and under the action of the injection spring, the button drives the toggle rod to return to the first position, and the outer toggle protrusion on the toggle rod resumes engagement with the knob inner protrusion in the adjusting knob, which is convenient for adjusting the dose next time; 5. When the adjusting knob is rotated, the spring The spring positioning buckle does not rotate with the toggle lever. The sleeve rotates with the toggle lever due to its fixed connection to the toggle lever. Therefore, during the adjustment process, the dose spring accumulates energy due to torsion. After the injection is started, the button pushes the toggle lever to slide toward the drive sleeve until the dial cover engages with the drive sleeve. The dose spring begins to release the stored energy, driving the toggle lever to rotate in the direction of the energy release, thereby driving the drive sleeve and the small screw to rotate. The small screw is then guided by the screw guide sleeve along the central axis and presses the vial to inject the drug. Because the dial positioning device and the drive positioning device are in a meshing relationship, the connection between the toggle lever and the drive sleeve is more precise, so the actual set dose is accurately converted into the feed amount of the small screw, thereby accurately controlling the injection amount of the drug. 6. When adjusting the dose of the present invention, rotating the adjustment knob does not cause the toggle lever to extend along the central axis relative to the housing. That is, the relative distance between the button and the housing along the central axis remains unchanged. Therefore, the present invention is more convenient for patients with special needs, such as those with small palms, those with inconvenient finger movement, and those who need to inject with one hand.

The first driving sleeve 5 and the screw guide sleeve 4 are coaxial with the first toggle rod 6. A plurality of driving positioning outer protrusions 501 cooperating with the dial positioning device are provided at the end of the first driving sleeve 5 near the first toggle rod 6. The driving positioning outer protrusion 501 protrudes outward along the radial direction of the first driving sleeve 5, and the dial positioning inner protrusions 6011 are engaged with the driving positioning outer protrusion 501. In order to cooperate more reliably with the small screw 2 in this embodiment, a connecting column is provided on the screw guide sleeve 4, and the connecting column extends into the inner cavity of the first driving sleeve 5.
[0063] A clamping groove 201 is provided on the small screw 2, and a first clamping protrusion 502 that matches the clamping groove 201 is provided on the inner wall of the first driving sleeve 5. The first clamping protrusion 502 extends into the clamping groove 201. A spiral guide protrusion is provided on the inner wall of the screw guide sleeve 4. A spiral stepping groove is provided on the outer periphery of the small screw 2. The guide protrusion matches the spiral angle of the stepping groove. Therefore, the interior of the driving device (specifically, the screw guide sleeve 4) is connected to the small screw 2 through spiral drive.
[0064] The first toggle rod 6 is fixedly connected to the hollow sleeve 7. A spring positioning buckle 13 is sleeved on the outer wall of the first toggle rod 6. A dose spring 1 is set in the inner cavity of the sleeve 7. One end of the dose spring 1 is fixedly connected to the sleeve 7, and the other end of the dose spring 1 is fixedly connected to the spring positioning buckle 13.
[0065] An adjusting knob 14 is provided on the outside of the first toggle rod 6, and a plurality of knob inner protrusions 1401 are provided on the inner wall of the adjusting knob 14. The knob inner protrusions 1401 protrude toward the inner cavity of the adjusting knob 14 along the radial direction of the adjusting knob 14. A plurality of first toggle outer protrusions 603 for matching with the knob transmission device are provided on the outer wall of the first toggle rod 6. The first toggle outer protrusions 603 protrude outward along the radial direction of the first toggle rod 6, and the knob inner protrusions 1401 and the first toggle outer protrusions 603 are engaged with each other.

When adjusting the dose, the adjusting knob 14 drives the first toggle rod 6 to rotate. The first toggle rod 6 drives the limiting tooth 3 to rotate by relying on the connection transmission of the limiting protrusion 301-the first limiting slot 604. The limiting tooth 3 moves relative to the small screw 2 along the central axis in the direction away from the injection end. During injection, because the first dial cover 601 is engaged with the first drive sleeve 5, the dose spring 1 begins to release the stored energy to drive the first toggle rod 6, the first drive sleeve 5 and the limiting tooth 3 to rotate synchronously. Therefore, the relative position relationship between the limiting tooth 3 and the small screw 2 in the central axis direction remains unchanged. When the next injection is needed, the adjusting knob 14 is rotated again. Driven by the first toggle rod 6, the limiting tooth 3 continues to move relative to the small screw 2 along the central axis in the direction away from the injection end until it abuts against the screw limit block 202 provided on the small screw 2. After the limiting tooth 3 abuts against the screw limit block 202, the small screw 2 has no further displacement stroke relative to the injection end, so it cannot be injected again.

[0075] An adjusting knob 14 is provided on the outside of the second toggle rod 18, and a plurality of knob inner protrusions 1401 are provided on the inner wall of the adjusting knob 14. The knob inner protrusions 1401 protrude toward the inner cavity of the adjusting knob 14 along the radial direction of the adjusting knob 14. A plurality of second toggle outer protrusions 1803 for matching with the knob transmission device are provided on the outer wall of the second toggle rod 18. The second toggle outer protrusions 1803 protrude outward along the radial direction of the second toggle rod 18, and the knob inner protrusions 1401 and the second toggle outer protrusions 1803 are engaged with each other.
[0076] The end of the second toggle rod 18 away from the injection end is detachably connected to the button 15 , and an injection spring 16 is provided between the button 15 and the adjustment knob 14 . One end of the injection spring 16 abuts against the button 15 , and the other end of the injection spring 16 abuts against the adjustment knob 14 .
[0077] Two limiting protrusions 301 are symmetrically arranged on the outer periphery of the limiting tooth 3, and two second limiting grooves 1804 for sliding connection with the limiting protrusions 301 are arranged inside the second toggle rod 18, and the limiting protrusions 301 are slidingly connected to the second limiting grooves 1804; the interior of the limiting tooth 3 is connected to the small screw 2 through a spiral drive, that is, a spiral limiting protrusion is also arranged inside the limiting tooth 3, and the limiting protrusion matches the angle of the spiral stepping groove opened on the outer periphery of the small screw 2, and the limiting protrusion is slidingly connected to the stepping groove. When adjusting the dose, the adjusting knob 14 drives the second toggle rod 18 to rotate. The second toggle rod 18 drives the limiting tooth 3 to rotate by relying on the connection transmission of the limiting protrusion 301 and the second limiting slot 1804. The limiting tooth 3 moves relative to the small screw 2 along the central axis in the direction away from the injection end. During injection, because the second dial cover 1801 is engaged with the second drive sleeve 19, the dose spring 1 begins to release the stored energy to drive the second toggle rod 18, the second drive sleeve 19 and the limiting tooth 3 to rotate synchronously. Therefore, the relative position relationship between the limiting tooth 3 and the small screw 2 in the central axis direction remains unchanged. When the next injection is required, the adjusting knob 14 is rotated again. Driven by the second toggle rod 18, the limiting tooth 3 continues to move relative to the small screw 2 along the central axis in the direction away from the injection end until it abuts against the screw limit block 202 provided on the small screw 2. After the limiting tooth 3 abuts against the screw limit block 202, the small screw 2 has no further displacement stroke relative to the injection end, so it cannot be injected again.
