[0022] The infusion monitoring device provided by the utility model is explained and illustrated in detail below in conjunction with the drawings of the specification.

[0023] The infusion monitoring device provided by the utility model is provided with a convex lens on the magnifying box, which can magnify the Murphy's dropper and facilitate observation of the liquid level inside the Murphy's dropper. At the same time, an alarm is provided, which can monitor the liquid in the infusion tube in real time, and send out an alarm signal when there is no liquid in the infusion tube to remind the patient and the caregiver. The utility model is provided with a magnifying box and an alarm, and combines active observation and passive alarm to avoid the situation where the liquid in the infusion tube runs out, thereby ensuring the safety of the patient and reducing the workload of the medical staff. The utility model is introduced in detail in combination with specific embodiments as follows:

[0024] In one embodiment, Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the utility model provides an infusion monitoring device for monitoring the infusion progress of an infusion device, comprising an amplifying box 1 and an alarm 2. The amplifying box 1 is covered outside the Murphy's dropper 4, and a caregiver or a patient can observe the liquid level in the Murphy's dropper 4 more clearly through the amplifying box 1. The alarm 2 can monitor the liquid level in the infusion tube 3 at the upper part of the Murphy's dropper 4 in real time, and send out an alarm signal in time when it is detected that there is no liquid in the infusion tube 3.

[0025] In one embodiment, Figure 1 As shown, the magnifying box 1 is a square box structure with one side open, including a top wall 11, a bottom wall 12 and three side walls 13. The top wall 11 and the bottom wall 12 are arranged in parallel, and the three side walls 13 are respectively connected to the three sides of the top wall 11 and the side wall 13 to form a box structure with one side open. The top wall 11 and the bottom wall 12 are provided with a snap-in notch 15, and the snap-in notches 15 on the top wall 11 and the bottom wall 12 are parallel to each other. Preferably, the projection of the notch on the top wall 11 on the bottom wall 12 coincides with the snap-in notch 15 on the bottom wall 12. The snap-in notch 15 extends from the open side of the magnifying box 1 to the middle position of the top wall 11 and the side wall 13, and the infusion tubes 3 at the upper and lower ends of the Murphy-type dropper 4 are snapped into the snap-in notch 15, so that the Murphy-type dropper 4 is placed in the magnifying box 1.

[0026] A convex lens 14 is provided on at least one side wall 13 of the magnifying box 1. The magnified image can be seen by observing the Murphy's dropper 4 through the convex lens 14, and the liquid level inside the Murphy's dropper 4 can be seen more clearly, and can be observed at a farther distance. Optionally, the magnifying box 1 is made of a transparent material plate, and a convex lens 14 is provided on each of the three side walls 13, so as to facilitate observation at different positions.

[0027] In one embodiment, a lighting lamp 16 is provided in the magnifying box 1. Optionally, the lighting lamp 16 is an LED lamp. The lighting lamp 16 can illuminate the magnifying box 1 at night or in an environment with insufficient light, so that the caregiver can clearly observe the liquid level in the Murphy-type dropper 4, thereby solving the problem of inconvenient observation at night and avoiding turning on the light at night to affect the patient's rest. Optionally, the lighting lamp 16 is provided on the top wall 11, and multiple lighting lamps 16 can be provided.

[0028] In one embodiment, the alarm 2 includes a body, in which a liquid level monitoring device, a controller and an alarm device are arranged. The liquid level monitoring device and the alarm device are connected to the controller. The body is used to be fixed on the infusion tube 3 on the upper side of the Murphy-type dropper 4. The liquid level monitoring device is used to monitor the liquid in the infusion tube 3. When it is detected that there is no liquid in the infusion tube 3, the controller receives the monitoring signal and controls the alarm device to send an alarm signal. Optionally, the controller is a single-chip microcomputer. The alarm device includes a buzzer 24 and / or a warning light 25. In this embodiment, the buzzer 24 and the warning light 25 are arranged at the same time, and an alarm signal can be sent out simultaneously through sound and light.

[0029] Optionally, a battery is provided in the body, and the battery supplies power to the liquid level monitoring device, the controller, the alarm device and the illuminating lamp 16. The body is also provided with an illuminating switch 26, which is used to control the opening and closing of the illuminating lamp 16. The illuminating lamp 16 can be turned on when the light is insufficient, and turned off when the light is sufficient, so as to save power. Furthermore, the battery can be a rechargeable battery or a dry cell.

[0030] In one embodiment, the body includes a first part 21 and a second part 22, which are rotatably connected via a rotating shaft, and a torsion spring is sleeved on the rotating shaft to form a clamp structure. The torsion spring provides elastic force to clamp the first part 21 and the second part 22 together, and a groove 23 is formed on each of the first part 21 and the second part 22. When the first part 21 and the second part 22 are clamped, the two grooves 23 are butted to form a cylindrical cavity, and the infusion tube 3 can be accommodated in the cavity, and the two grooves 23 are clamped on the outer wall of the infusion tube 3, providing a certain clamping force on the outer wall of the infusion tube 3, and will not flatten the infusion tube 3, so as to ensure that the liquid in the infusion tube 3 can flow smoothly.

[0031] Optionally, the liquid level monitoring device includes an infrared pair tube, and the transmitting part and the receiving part of the infrared pair tube are respectively arranged in the groove 23 of the first part 21 and the second part 22. Since the liquid has an absorption and scattering effect on infrared light, when there is liquid in the infusion tube 3, the receiving part receives less infrared light, and when there is no liquid in the infusion tube 3, the receiving part receives more infrared light. The alarm 2 is arranged above the Murphy's dropper 4, and optionally, it can be as close to the upper end of the infusion tube 3 as possible, so that when there is no liquid in the medicine bottle or medicine bag, it can quickly detect that there is no liquid in the infusion tube 3, so that the caregiver can be reminded to replace the liquid medicine in time, reducing the impact on the amount of liquid medicine in the Murphy's dropper 4.
