[0060] An application method of an automated insulin auxiliary device comprises the following steps:
[0061] Step 1: Connect with the mobile phone. The patient or family member pairs the insulin automated assistive device through the mobile phone application to achieve data transmission between the device and the mobile phone.
[0062] Step 2: Dose setting: The patient or family member sets the insulin injection dose in the mobile phone application. The dose setting instruction is transmitted to the dose setting module of the insulin automated auxiliary device through the communication module. The dose setting module automatically adjusts the dose of the insulin pen;
[0063] Step 3: Automatic exhaust: Before injecting insulin, start the automatic exhaust module to remove the air in the insulin pen;
[0064] Step 4: Voice reminder: In each step of insulin use, the voice broadcast module reminds the patient step by step how to use the insulin pen to ensure that the patient uses the insulin pen correctly;
[0065] Step 5: Data transmission: The automated insulin assistive device transmits insulin usage information, such as injection time and injection dosage, to the mobile phone application through the communication module. The mobile phone application then transmits this data to the patient and the child;
[0066] Step 6: Timed reminder: The mobile phone application can be set with a timed reminder function to remind patients to inject insulin on time. When the set injection time arrives, the mobile phone application and the insulin automated auxiliary use device will send a reminder signal at the same time.
[0067] The control box is also provided with a battery inside for supplying power to the electrical components provided in this solution.
[0068] Working Principle: First, place the upper end of the insulin pen on the lower end of the blocking ring 35, rotate the rotating member 13, and under the action of the arc groove 14, movable limit groove 19, and movable limit block 20, adjust the connecting plate 16 to drive the fixed arc plate 17 closer to the insulin pen to secure the insulin pen. The position of the rotating member 13 is fixed by the spherical semi-groove 23, limit receiving groove 24, limit member 25, and first spring 26. The rubber particles 18 improve the stability of the fixed arc plate 17 in fixing the insulin pen, making it suitable for fixing insulin pens of different diameters.
[0069] Pairing with your phone: Open the mobile app and follow the prompts to pair your insulin automated assistive device via Bluetooth or Wi-Fi. During the pairing process, ensure that the wireless communication between your phone and the device is functioning properly.
[0070] Dose setting: Enter the desired insulin dose in the mobile app. After clicking Confirm, the dose setting instruction is transmitted to the dose setting module of the insulin automated auxiliary device through the communication module. The dose setting module automatically adjusts the dose of the insulin pen based on the received instruction. During the dose adjustment process, the dose setting module will perform precise calculations and controls to ensure the accuracy of the dose setting.
[0071] Automatic exhaust: Before injecting insulin, adjust the length of the adjustment column 31 extending out of the adjustment tube 30 according to the length of the insulin pen, so that the camera 33 is placed at the lower end of the needle on the insulin pen, so as to facilitate real-time observation of the water droplets on the insulin needle. When a complete water droplet is ejected, it is known that the air on the insulin pen has been completely exhausted, and the detection result is transmitted to the automatic exhaust module, which transmits it to the control module;
[0072] The specific exhaust process is as follows:
[0073] First, point the insulin pen upward and start the micro motor 5. The micro motor 5 drives the high-precision screw 7 to rotate, which in turn drives the internal threaded disc 8 downward. The internal threaded disc 8 drives the push disc 10 and the push block 11 toward the insulin pen via the limit link 9. The pressure sensor on the push block 11 detects the pushing pressure in real time. The pressure value tells you when the insulin is actually pushed. The pushing time, the speed of the micro motor 5, and the accuracy of the high-precision screw 7 can be used to accurately determine the amount of insulin pushed.
[0074] The injection process is as follows:
[0075] After the exhaust is completed, the regulating tube 30 is folded into the interior of the magnet 34, and then the user's injection site is disinfected. The insulin needle is inserted into the user's body, and the micro motor 5 is started by pressing the start button. The micro motor 5 drives the high-precision lead screw 7 to rotate, and the high-precision lead screw 7 drives the internal threaded disk 8 to move downward. The internal threaded disk 8 drives the push disk 10 and the push block 11 to move toward the insulin pen through the limit connecting rod 9. The amount of insulin pushed is determined by the number of rotations of the micro motor 5.
[0076] Voice reminder: In each step of insulin use, the voice broadcast module will remind the patient step by step according to the preset program;
[0077] For example, when installing the needle, the voice broadcast module will remind the patient "Please install the insulin pen needle"; when venting, the voice broadcast module will remind the patient "Venting, please wait"; when injecting, the voice broadcast module will remind the patient "Please press the injection button to inject insulin", etc. The voice broadcast module's voice prompts are clear and easy to understand, making it convenient for the elderly and visually impaired patients to use;
[0078] Data transmission: The automated insulin auxiliary device will transmit information about insulin usage, such as injection time, injection dosage, and gas discharge, to a mobile phone application through a communication module. The mobile phone application will store and analyze this data and generate corresponding reports. At the same time, the mobile phone application will transmit this data to the patient and children, making it easier for family members to understand the patient's insulin usage. During data transmission, the communication module will use an encryption algorithm to ensure the security of data transmission. Data storage and transmission are existing technologies and will not be described in detail in this solution.
[0079] Timed reminder: Set the timed reminder function in the mobile phone application and on the control module of the control box, enter the time and reminder content. When the set injection time arrives, the mobile phone application will send a reminder signal. At the same time, the voice broadcast module of the automatic insulin auxiliary device will also send a reminder voice to ensure that the patient will not forget to inject insulin.
[0080] The automated insulin auxiliary device provided in this solution can be installed and disassembled from the insulin pen, can be recycled, and is easy to carry.
[0081] The electrical components appearing in this article are all connected to an external main controller and 220V AC power, and the main controller can be a conventional known device that controls a computer, etc. The specific implementation method of this disclosure omits the detailed description of known functions and known components. To ensure the compatibility of the equipment, the operating methods used are consistent with the parameters of marketed equipment.
[0082] This solution is only designed for auxiliary use of existing insulin pens on the market. The structural technology of the insulin pen itself is very mature and has been widely used. The insulin pen technology is common knowledge in this field and will not be described here. At the same time, this application does not protect the specific structure of the insulin pen.
