The circular cylinder 26 is sleeved on the limiting column 22, so the circular cylinder 26 can rotate, and the test strip can rotate with it. One end of the test strip extends into the channel box 23 from the circular box body 21 and leads to the blood glucose meter probe 3 through the channel box 23. Both sides of the test strip in the channel box 23 face the two sides of the channel box 23. The test strip first passes through the gap between the two first rotating shafts 27 in the channel box 23 and then through the gap between the two second rotating shafts 28. The two first rotating shafts 27 and the two second rotating shafts 28 respectively clamp the test strip. When in use, the two first rotating shafts 27 and the two second rotating shafts 28 simultaneously rotate inward from top to bottom, driving the test strip to move downward. The circular cylinder 26 rotates accordingly to complete the extension of the test strip. When the extended length is sufficient for use, the motor can be turned off. The test strip is clamped by the two first motors 24 and the two second motors 25 and extends to the lower part of the channel box 23, leading to the blood glucose meter probe 3, extending into the blood glucose meter probe port 31, and then protruding from the bottom hole of the blood glucose meter probe port 31. The patient extends the finger to the protruding test strip to stain the blood on the test strip. The blood impregnates the test strip, and the blood glucose meter body 1 completes the blood glucose test of the patient through the blood glucose meter probe 3 and displays the test result through the display screen 11. While detecting the blood glucose, the device completes the storage and automatic extension of the test strip, making the blood glucose test simpler and more convenient.

[0033] In some possible implementation manners, an integrated circuit 12, a first button 13, and a second button 14 are provided on the blood glucose meter body 1.

[0034] Specifically, the integrated circuit 12 can be set according to the length of the test strip. When the first button 13 is pressed, the two first motors 24 and the two second motors 25 simultaneously rotate inward from top to bottom to extend the test strip downward. When the extended length reaches the length of each small section of the test strip, it automatically stops. When the second button 14 is pressed, the two first motors 24 do not move, and the two second motors 25 operate. The two first motors 24 clamp and fix the test strip, and the two second motors 25 extend the test strip downward, tearing the two sections of the test strip apart. The medical staff can discard the used test strip below. The settings of the first button 13, the second button 14, and the integrated circuit 12 facilitate the operation mode of the device and make it simpler to use.

[0035] In some possible implementation manners, a box cover 211 is provided on one side of the circular box body 21 away from the blood glucose meter body 1. The box cover 211 is rotatably installed on the circular box body 21.

[0036] Specifically, after the test strip in the circular box body 21 is used up, the box cover 211 can be opened, and a new test strip can be put in to complete the replacement. At the same time, the box cover 211 has a protective function to prevent the test strip in the circular box body 21 from being contaminated.

[0037] In some possible embodiments, a laser rangefinder 29 is provided at the inner top end of the circular box body 21. The laser rangefinder 29 is electrically connected to the display screen 11; a third button 15 is provided on the blood glucose meter body 1, and the third button 15 is electrically connected to the laser rangefinder 29.

[0038] Specifically, the laser rangefinder 29 can monitor the distance between the top end of the circular box body 21 and the test strip. When the test strip is continuously used, its thickness will continuously decrease. The laser rangefinder 29 can judge the remaining amount of the test strip according to the distance between the top end of the circular box body 21 and the test strip. Since the laser rangefinder 29 is connected to the display screen 11, the remaining amount of the test strip can be displayed on the display screen 11; the long-term operation of the laser tester will waste electricity. The laser rangefinder 29 is connected to the third button 15. When the third button 15 is pressed, the laser rangefinder 29 works and displays the remaining amount of the test strip on the display screen 11.

[0039] In some possible embodiments, the first button 13, the second button 14 and the third button 15 are vertically spaced and arranged on the side of the blood glucose meter body 1.

[0040] Specifically, the three buttons are vertically spaced and arranged on the side of the blood glucose meter body 1 for convenient operation.

[0041] In some possible embodiments, a charging slot 16 is provided at the bottom of the blood glucose meter body 1. The charging slot 16 is electrically connected to the blood glucose meter body 1, two first motors 24, two second motors 25, the laser rangefinder 29 and the display screen 11, and the charging slot 16 is connected to an external power supply.

[0042] Specifically, the device is powered by connecting an external power supply through the charging slot 16 to supply power to each mechanism inside to ensure its normal operation; of course, a storage battery can also be installed in the blood glucose meter body 1 to supply power to the device.

[0043] In some possible embodiments, a plurality of buttons are provided on one side of the blood glucose meter body 1 to control the blood glucose meter body 1; the bottom of the blood glucose meter probe member 3 is flush with the bottom of the blood glucose meter body 1, and a housing is detachably installed on the other side of the blood glucose meter body 1 to wrap the test strip collection assembly 2 and the blood glucose meter probe member 3.

[0044] Specifically, the button is used to control the blood glucose meter probe 3, controlling functions such as its startup. It is more aesthetically pleasing that the bottom of the blood glucose meter probe 3 is flush with the bottom of the blood glucose meter body 1, occupies a smaller volume, and is convenient to carry; the outer shell shields the entire test strip collection assembly 2 and the blood glucose meter probe 3, avoiding structural damage caused by collision and being more aesthetically pleasing at the same time.

[0045] In some possible embodiments, both the first rotating shaft 27 and the second rotating shaft 28 are made of rubber material.

[0046] Specifically, the first rotating shaft 27 and the second rotating shaft 28 need to clamp the test strip. The rubber first rotating shaft 27 and second rotating shaft 28 will not damage the test strip when clamping it. At the same time, due to its certain elasticity, the rubber material is tighter and more stable when clamping the test strip.
