[0032] Reference Figure 1 An insulin pen storage rack and an insulin pen, wherein the insulin pen 20 can be placed on the storage rack 10, and the insulin pen 20 can be placed on the storage rack 10, and the insulin pen 20 has several different types; the several different types of insulin pens 20 have several magnets, and the height positions of the magnets in the different types of insulin pens are different;

[0033] For example, the insulin pen 20 is divided into a long-acting pen 21 and a short-acting pen 22; the magnet includes a first magnet 211 and a second magnet 221, the first magnet 211 is installed on the long-acting pen 21, and the second magnet 221 is installed on the short-acting pen 22, and the installation heights of the first magnet 211 and the second magnet 221 on the insulin pen 20 are different. Of course, the types of insulin pens are not limited to the above-mentioned long-acting pens 21 and short-acting pens 22. For example, a mixed insulin pen is also suitable for the present application.

[0034] Further, the storage rack 10 is equipped with:

[0035] The Hall sensor 11 is used to sense the magnetic field of the magnet. Specifically, it can be used to sense the magnetic field of the first magnet 211 or the second magnet 221. When the long-acting pen 21 or the short-acting pen 22 is placed in the correct position of the storage rack 10, refer to Figure 2 , the Hall sensor 11 will sense the magnetic field of the magnet and send out an electrical signal. If the long-acting pen 21 or the short-acting pen 22 is placed in the wrong position of the storage rack 10, the position of the magnet is misaligned with the position of the Hall sensor 11. Figure 4 or Figure 5 , at this time, the Hall sensor 11 cannot sense the magnetic field of the magnet and thus cannot send out an electrical signal;

[0036] The weight sensor 12 is used to sense the weight of the insulin pen 20. When the insulin pen 20 is placed on the storage rack 10, the weight sensor 12 senses the weight of the insulin pen 20, thereby determining that the insulin pen 20 is placed on the storage rack 10 and sending an electrical signal.

[0037] The processor 13 is used to process the electrical signals of the Hall sensor 11 and the weight sensor 12. The Hall sensor 11 and the weight sensor 12 are both electrically connected to the processor 13.

[0038] The prompt system is used to prompt whether different types of the insulin pens 20 are placed in the correct position. The prompt system is electrically connected to the processor 13.

[0039] In summary, the processor 13 is further used for: when the weight sensor 12 and the Hall sensor 11 both send electrical signals to the processor 13, that is, the insulin pen 20 of the correct type is placed in the correct position, the processor 13 sends a first signal to the prompt system, so that the prompt system sends a prompt signal of correct placement;

[0040] When only the weight sensor 12 sends an electrical signal to the processor 13, that is, the insulin pen 20 is placed on the storage rack 10, but the Hall sensor 11 cannot sense the magnetic field, indicating that the insulin pen 20 is placed in the wrong position, such as Figure 5As shown, at this time, the processor 13 sends a second signal to the prompt system, causing the prompt system to send a wrong placement prompt signal to warn the user that it has been placed in the wrong position.

[0041] The prompt system mentioned above includes: LED light 141, which can emit red light or green light. LED light 141 is installed on the placement rack. LED light 141 is electrically connected to processor 13. When LED light 141 receives a first signal, LED light 141 emits green light; when LED light 141 receives a second signal, LED light 141 emits red light for user identification.

[0042] Furthermore, the prompt system further includes: a display screen 142, the display screen 142 is installed on the storage rack 10; the processor 13 is further used to measure the weight of the insulin pen 20 through the weight sensor 12 to determine the remaining amount of the drug in the insulin pen 20, and send the remaining amount information to the display screen 142, so that the display screen 142 displays the remaining amount of the drug in the insulin pen 20, and the processor 13 can also be connected to the hospital's medical order system, so that the nurse can know the remaining amount of the insulin pen 20 in real time and replenish the drug in time, such as Figure 8 shown.

[0043] Based on the above structure, the storage rack 10 is installed with several placement racks along its width direction, and the placement rack is provided with several placement holes along its length direction, and the user can place the insulin pen 20 on the placement hole; wherein, the placement rack includes: a first placement rack 15 for placing long-acting pens 21 and a second placement rack 16 for placing short-acting pens 22.

[0044] It should be noted that the placement conditions of the first placement rack 15 and the second placement rack 16 are different, and can be divided into the following three embodiments for production. It should be noted that the installation methods of the three embodiments are all within the protection scope of this application:

[0045] In the first embodiment, there is a height difference between the first placement rack 15 and the second placement rack 16; preferably, the first placement rack 15 is arranged at the rear of the storage rack 10, and the second placement rack 15 is arranged at the front of the storage rack 10, and the difference in position and height makes it convenient for the user to take the insulin pen 20; in such a setting, the Hall sensor 11 is placed between the first placement rack 15 and the second placement rack 16, such as Figure 2As shown; two Hall sensors 11 are placed in parallel, and the weight sensor 12 is installed at the position of the storage rack 10 corresponding to the placement hole. When the user places the long-acting pen 21 on the first placement rack 15, or places the short-acting pen 22 on the second placement rack 16, the Hall sensor 11 will feel the magnetic field of the magnet, and the weight sensor 12 will also feel the weight of the long-acting pen 21, thereby determining that the placement is correct; if the user places the long-acting pen 21 on the second placement rack 16, or places the short-acting pen 22 on the first placement rack 15, refer to Figure 5 , the Hall sensor 11 cannot sense the magnetic field of the magnet, and the weight sensor 12 also senses the weight of the long-lasting pen 21, thereby determining that the placement is wrong.

[0046] In the second embodiment, there is a height difference between the first placement rack 15 and the second placement rack 16; however, the Hall sensor 11 is placed between the long-acting pen 21 and the short-acting pen 22, such as Figure 6 As shown, the Hall sensor 11 senses the magnetic field signals on the front and rear sides. Compared with the first embodiment, the installation of the Hall sensor 11 is more convenient; the weight sensor 12 is installed at the position of the storage rack 10 corresponding to the placement hole. The method for determining whether the insulin pen 20 is correct has been explained above and will not be repeated here.

[0047] In the third embodiment, the first placement rack 15 and the second placement rack 16 are installed in parallel on the storage rack 10. Figure 7 As shown; Hall sensors 11 are installed on both the first placement rack 15 and the second placement rack 16, and the weight sensor 12 is installed at the position of the storage rack 10 corresponding to the placement hole, wherein the Hall sensor 11 of the first placement rack 15 is installed on the upper side of the first placement rack 15, and the Hall sensor 11 of the second placement rack 16 is placed on the lower side of the second placement rack 16, so that there is a height difference between the Hall sensors 11, which can adapt to the positions of the first magnet 211 and the second magnet 221 when the insulin pen 20 is correctly placed. The method for judging whether the insulin pen 20 is correct has been explained above and will not be repeated here.
