Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of blood glucose meters, and more specifically, to an injection mold for a blood glucose meter housing with an exhaust structure. Background Technique
[0002] A blood glucose meter is an electronic instrument for measuring blood glucose levels. Blood glucose meters are divided into two types from the working principle: photoelectric type and electrode type, and are divided into two types from the blood collection method: wiping blood type and blood sucking type. The housing of a blood glucose meter is generally made of plastic material, and a specific injection mold is required during the production of the blood glucose meter housing.
[0003] When the blood glucose meter housing is injection molded, it is necessary to avoid phenomena such as insufficient filling, product surface burns, high internal stress inside the product, surface flow lines, and weld lines. In addition to considering adjusting the injection process and gate position, the main reason for these phenomena is whether it is caused by the gas in the cavity. The sources of gas in the cavity are mainly divided into three categories: the air accumulated in the cavity, the gas generated by the decomposition of the raw material, and the water vapor evaporated from the residual water in the raw material. Therefore, it is necessary to exhaust the air in the cavity. Due to different sources, the positions of the generated bubbles are also different, which is not convenient for exhausting the gas at different positions. Moreover, the cavity will be filled with air before injection molding, and it is not convenient for the gas to be quickly exhausted during injection molding, which affects the injection of the injection material. For this reason, we propose an injection mold for a blood glucose meter housing with an exhaust structure. Content of the Utility Model
