[0018] All features disclosed in this specification, or all steps in the disclosed methods or processes, except mutually exclusive features and / or steps, can be combined in any manner.

[0019] Any feature disclosed in this specification (including any appended claims, abstract, and drawings), unless otherwise stated, may be replaced by other equivalent or similar features. In other words, unless otherwise stated, each feature is only an example of a series of equivalent or similar features.

[0020] like Figure 1 As shown, an insulin pump with fingerprint unlocking function of the present invention includes a device host 1, in which a motor 4, a main board 3 and a battery 5 are installed. The motor 4 is turned on and off by the main board 3, and the battery 5 is used to power the motor 4 and the main board 3;

[0021] It also includes a fingerprint button 2, which is installed on any side of the device host 1. The button fingerprint is connected to the MCU on the main board 3. The motor 4 is awakened after the fingerprint is unlocked by the fingerprint button 2; when the fingerprint button 2 is unlocked, the device host 1 is operated.

[0022] Among them, such as Figure 3 As shown, the device host 1 has a driving circuit. When the fingerprint button 2 is unlocked with a fingerprint, the driving circuit is awakened to control the switch of the motor 4. It also includes a fingerprint storage module for extracting and storing the user's fingerprint. The authorized fingerprint can unlock the fingerprint button 2. The user can extract the fingerprint and store it. Therefore, the device can only be turned on after the user's fingerprint is unlocked, which greatly improves security.

[0023] like Figure 2 As shown, the device host 1 includes a shell, the battery 5 is installed in a battery box 5 and installed together in the shell, one side of the shell is sealed by a side cover, and the main board 3 and motor 4 are both installed in the shell.

[0024] It also includes an indicator light for indicating the power value and serving as an alarm light. When a fault occurs or the power is low, it can display red to remind the user.

[0025] The fingerprint button 2 module in this utility model relies on widely used biometric technology, which has been successfully applied in various fields. Its core operating principle is to obtain the user's fingerprint image through a fingerprint sensor and compare it with a pre-stored fingerprint template through an algorithm. When a match is successful, the fingerprint module issues an unlock command through the MCU (microcontroller unit), waking up the device's driver circuit and activating the insulin pump's motor 4. This principle is similar to that of a fingerprint door lock. During this process, the fingerprint button 2's main function is to utilize biometric technology to ensure the security of the unlocking operation while avoiding the accidental touches and misoperations that are prone to traditional physical buttons.

[0026] While the circuit design for fingerprint button 2 is not described in detail in this specification, the communication and drive processes between the fingerprint recognition module and the main control circuit follow established control logic. As an integrated circuit, the fingerprint button 2 module includes the hardware and software design for submodules such as fingerprint image acquisition, signal processing, and data comparison, conforming to existing technical standards. Based on this, the motor 4 within the device host 1 is connected to the drive circuit via the MCU, receiving the unlock signal from fingerprint button 2 to initiate operation.

[0027] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: by adding a fingerprint button, the device can only be awakened and enter the working state after successful unlocking with an authorized fingerprint, effectively preventing accidental touches caused by traditional physical unlocking methods, ensuring accurate and safe insulin infusion. In addition, fingerprint unlocking technology enhances the privacy protection of the device, preventing unauthorized personnel from operating the insulin pump, thereby improving the overall safety and reliability of the device.

[0028] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of the present invention, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions that do not require creative effort should be included within the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention should be based on the scope of protection defined in the claims.
