AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

When the existing vacuum blood collection tube is removed, the friction between the rubber plug and the tube cap is insufficient, resulting in the rubber plug being unable to be removed smoothly, affecting the subsequent inspection work.

Method used

A pipe cap is designed with a through hole axially provided, and annular positioning ribs and wedge-shaped blocks extending from the inner surface. Combined with the engaging rib strips, the rubber plug is inserted into the pipe cap, and the wedge block blocks the deformation of the rubber plug, driving the rubber plug to rotate relative to the pipe body, so that the pipe cap can smoothly pull out the rubber plug.

Benefits of technology

By rotating the tube cap, the friction between the glue plug and the tube cap is enhanced, avoiding rotation, and driving the glue plug to rotate relative to the tube body, achieving the smooth extraction of the glue plug, simplifying the subsequent inspection work.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a vacuum blood collection tube, in particular to a vacuum blood collection tube with a tube cap that can be easily removed. Background Art

[0002] The vacuum blood collection tube is a common tool in the blood collection process. Its structure mainly includes a tube body, a tube cap and a rubber plug, wherein the rubber plug is arranged in the tube cap, and the lower end of the rubber plug is inserted into the tube body to achieve sealing. When collecting blood, the blood collection needle is inserted into the rubber plug to reach the negative pressure tube body to realize automatic blood collection of human or animal. However, generally, the blood will not be tested immediately after the blood collection is completed, but it needs to be sorted and numbered and then transported. When it arrives at the testing place, the tube cap is removed for testing. The removal of the tube cap usually has a special instrument to rotate it first and then pull it out. Because the rubber plug itself has silicone oil attached to the surface, there is a good sealing between the rubber plug and the tube body. Although the rubber plug and the tube cap are in contact with each other by extrusion deformation, in the process of the instrument rotating the tube cap, the friction between the rubber plug and the tube body is greater than the friction between the rubber plug and the tube cap, which will cause the rubber plug and the tube cap to rotate, and ultimately the instrument cannot pull out the rubber plug smoothly. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of the above problems, the utility model aims to provide a vacuum blood collection tube with an easily removable tube cap, which has a novel structure and is easy to use. When the tube cap is rotated, the rubber plug can be driven to rotate relative to the tube body, and the rubber plug can be smoothly pulled out through the tube cap.

[0004] The technical solution of the utility model is a vacuum blood collection tube with a tube cap that is easy to remove, comprising a tube body, a rubber plug and a tube cap, the tube cap is axially provided with a through hole, an annular positioning rib is extended inwardly from the inner surface of the through hole at the upper part of the tube cap, a series of wedge-shaped blocks are provided on the inner side wall of the tube cap above the annular positioning rib, a plurality of engaging ribs that are tightly fitted with the outer side wall of the tube body are vertically provided on the inner side wall of the tube cap below the annular positioning rib, the rubber plug is inserted into the through hole of the tube cap from top to bottom with interference fit, and the lower part of the rubber plug passes over the annular positioning rib and is inserted into the tube body and is interference fit with the inner side wall of the tube body.

[0005] Preferably, the wedge-shaped blocks are evenly distributed along the circumferential direction of the tube cap, and the thickness of the wedge-shaped blocks gradually increases in the counterclockwise direction.

[0006] Preferably, the transverse cross-section of the wedge-shaped block is triangular.

[0007] Preferably, the outer side surface of the pipe cap is vertically provided with alternating concave and convex corrugated surfaces.

[0008] The utility model can avoid rotation between the pipe cap and the rubber plug when the pipe cap is rotated, and at the same time drive the rubber plug to rotate relative to the pipe body, so that the rubber plug can be smoothly pulled out through the pipe cap.

[0015] The utility model is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0016] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the utility model provides a vacuum blood collection tube with an easily removable tube cap, comprising a tube body 1, a rubber plug 2 and a tube cap 3, wherein the tube cap 3 is axially provided with a through hole, an annular positioning rib 4 is extended inwardly from the inner surface of the through hole at the upper portion of the tube cap 3, a series of wedge-shaped blocks 5 are provided on the inner side wall of the tube cap 3 above the annular positioning rib 4, a plurality of engaging ribs 6 which are closely fitted with the outer side wall of the tube body 1 are vertically provided on the inner side wall of the tube cap 3 below the annular positioning rib 4, the rubber plug 2 is interference inserted into the through hole of the tube cap 3 from top to bottom, and the lower portion of the rubber plug 2 passes over the annular positioning rib 4 and is inserted into the tube body 1 and interference fits with the inner side wall of the tube body 1.

[0017] On the basis of the above solution, the wedge-shaped blocks 5 are evenly distributed along the circumferential direction of the tube cap 3, and the thickness of the wedge-shaped blocks 5 gradually increases in the counterclockwise direction.

[0018] Wherein, the transverse cross section of the wedge block 5 is a triangle.

[0019] Furthermore, the outer side surface of the pipe cap 3 is vertically provided with a corrugated surface with alternating concave and convex shapes.

[0020] When in use, the rubber plug 2 is inserted into the inner hole of the tube cap 3 and is limited circumferentially by the wedge block 5. When the tube cap 3 is twisted, the rubber plug 2 is deformed and blocked by the wedge block 5 and cannot rotate relative to the tube cap 3, so it rotates with the tube cap 3, thereby causing the rubber plug 2 to rotate relative to the inner wall of the tube body 1, breaking the initial maximum static friction force. After the rotation, it can be smoothly pulled out for subsequent blood testing.

[0021] The above description is only a preferred implementation mode of the utility model, and does not impose any form of limitation on the utility model. Any simple modification, equivalent change or modification made to the above embodiments based on the technical principle of the utility model still falls within the scope of the technical solution of the utility model.
