Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of blood glucose test strips, in particular to a blood glucose test strip box which is easy to take out. Background Art
[0002] Diabetes is a metabolic disease characterized by hyperglycemia. Hyperglycemia is caused by insufficient insulin secretion or impaired pancreatic islet function. When patients are affected by hyperglycemia for a long time, it will cause chronic damage and dysfunction of the patient's kidneys, heart, and blood vessels. Controlling diabetes requires not only drug intervention, but also comprehensive management to improve the treatment effect of diabetes and prevent the occurrence of complications. At present, diabetes management usually requires "five horses" to be driven simultaneously, namely: education first, rational use of drugs, moderate exercise, diet control and regular monitoring. Diabetic patients need to monitor their blood sugar at least 4 times a day (i.e. fasting blood sugar and blood sugar two hours after three meals). Therefore, how to monitor blood sugar more effectively, avoid contamination during the monitoring process, and effectively control blood sugar has become an urgent problem to be solved. For this purpose, it is necessary to develop a technology field involving blood sugar test strips, and in particular, a blood sugar test strip box that is easy to use.
[0003] Blood glucose test strips are essential consumables for daily blood glucose monitoring in both diabetic patients and healthcare facilities. To ensure accurate blood glucose monitoring results, storage and access must prioritize convenience and hygiene. Currently, blood glucose test strips available on the market are primarily divided into individually packaged test strips and boxed test strips. Individually packaged test strips effectively prevent contamination during storage and handling. However, due to the increased manufacturing cost of individually packaged test strips, hospitals, clinics, and other healthcare facilities typically do not purchase them in large quantities. Boxed test strips are economical and suitable for planned use in healthcare facilities. However, boxed test strips still have the following drawbacks. Boxed test strips are typically stacked, requiring medical staff or patients to manually flip the test strips when accessing them, increasing the complexity and making it easy to remove multiple strips at once or spill them. Furthermore, the multiple use of the test strips exposes the test strips to air, exposing them to contamination from moisture, dust, or bacteria. Furthermore, finger contact with the active area of the test strips can lead to inaccurate test results. Therefore, to balance the cost requirements of healthcare facilities with convenient test strip access, there is an urgent need for a convenient blood glucose test strip box. Utility Model Content
[0004] In order to solve the above technical problems, the utility model provides a blood glucose test strip box which is easy to take out.
[0005] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the technical solution adopted by the present utility model is as follows:
[0006] A blood glucose test strip box that is easy to take out includes a box body and a test strip, the box body is provided with a storage cavity for storing the test strip, the box body includes a storage cavity, a first control cavity and a second control cavity, the first control cavity and the second control cavity are separated by a first partition, the second control cavity and the storage cavity are separated by a second partition, a vertical first guide groove is provided on the side wall of the box body corresponding to the first control cavity, a second guide groove and a third guide groove corresponding to the first guide groove are provided on the first partition and the second partition respectively, a movable pressure rod is provided on the first guide groove to pass through the second control cavity, a first elastic component is provided in the first control cavity, a transmission component is provided on the third guide groove, a plurality of guide ridges are provided at equal intervals on the transmission component, the free end of the movable pressure rod is adapted to abut against the guide ridge, and an inclined base is provided on the bottom surface of the storage cavity facing the second partition.
[0007] Furthermore, the transmission assembly includes a rotating belt and two positioning shafts. The two positioning shafts are disposed on the inner rings at either end of the rotating belt and are mated with the rotating belt. The positioning shafts are mounted on the side edges of the third guide groove. The long axis of the transmission belt is arranged parallel to the channel of the third guide groove, and the belt surface of the rotating belt covers the third guide groove. Through the fixation and guidance of the positioning shafts, the rotating belt is controlled by external force and rotates on the third guide groove. A guide ridge is fixed to the outer ring of the rotating belt, and the movable pressure rod abuts to achieve follow-up rotation of the rotating belt.
[0008] Furthermore, the distance between any two of the guide ridges is greater than the length of the test strip, and the vertical length of the rotating belt is less than the vertical length of the third guide groove. During the rotation of the rotating belt, the distance between any two guide ridges is the length of the test strip. When a test strip is transported to the opening of the box body, any guide ridge is just located at the bottom of the rotating belt to facilitate the transportation of the next test strip. The vertical length of the third guide groove is greater than the length of the rotating belt plus the sum of the lengths of the two guide ridges. That is, during the rotation of the rotating belt, when the guide ridge moves to the top and bottom of the rotating belt, it can pass through the gap between the rotating belt and the third guide groove, ensuring that the rotating belt can rotate smoothly.
[0009] Furthermore, the lower portion of the free end of the movable pressure rod is rotatably connected to a rotating block, and a transverse limit baffle is provided at the upper portion of the free end of the movable pressure rod. A second elastic component is connected between the limit baffle and the rotating block. During the upward movement of the movable rod, the rotating block abuts against the guide ribs. At this time, the rotating block bends downward until it passes through the guide ribs, at which point the rotating block returns to a horizontal position under the traction of the second elastic component. During the downward movement of the movable rod, the rotating block abuts against the guide ribs. At this time, the rotating block receives an upward force, and under the action of the limit baffle, the rotating block drives the guide ribs downward. At this time, the guide ribs on the other side of the rotating belt move upward, thereby driving the test strip upward, thereby realizing the function of removing the test strip.
[0010] Furthermore, the movable pressure rod is provided with two sets of limit clamps, which are adapted to engage with the first guide groove and the second guide groove, respectively. These two sets of limit clamps ensure that the movable pressure rod remains horizontal during the pressing process, preventing the movable pressure rod from dislodging from the first and second guide grooves. In addition, a pressing member is provided at the rear end of the movable pressure rod, which facilitates the user's pressing operation of the movable pressure rod, thereby improving convenience.
[0011] Furthermore, a rotating cover is provided on the top surface of the box body, which is rotatably connected to the box body via a torsion spring. The opening of the rotating cover is vertically aligned with the lower end of the inclined surface of the inclined base. During the rotation of the rotating belt, the test strip is transported upward, which pushes the rotating cover open. After the test strip is removed, the rotating cover is closed again under the action of the torsion spring, thus protecting the box body from external contamination.
[0012] Furthermore, the box body is a cylindrical structure, and the cross-section of the storage cavity is a semicircular structure.
[0013] Furthermore, two limiting seats are provided within the storage chamber, with their surfaces parallel to the axis of the movable pressure rod, and the test strip is placed between the two limiting seats. The limiting seats are used to confine the test strip to the middle of the storage chamber. Since the test strip has a certain length, it is inevitable that it will flip and shake during use of the box. The limiting seats can limit the tilt angle of the test strip, ensuring that the test strip is basically in a vertical position. When the test strip is at the bottom of the inclined base, the test strip can be smoothly removed.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0015] 1. The utility model provides a movable pressure rod and a transmission assembly, so that a single press can push the test strip up and out of the box. After the blood glucose test strip is taken out, it can be directly docked and engaged with the blood glucose meter, avoiding direct contact with the blood glucose test strip by hand, reducing the possibility of contamination of the blood glucose test strip and affecting the test results;
[0016] 2. The utility model provides a first elastic component and an inclined base design to ensure that the movable pressure rod returns to its original position after pressing, and the test paper always reaches the transmission component, so that it can be taken out repeatedly;
[0017] 3. The present invention reduces the risk of test paper contamination by improving the arrangement and access structure of the test paper in the box, while making it easier for users or medical staff to quickly and accurately access a single test paper, thereby improving usage efficiency and reducing waste.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0024] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more clearly understood, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with embodiments and drawings. The schematic implementation methods of the present invention and their descriptions are only used to explain the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.
[0025] Example 1
[0026] like Figure 1-5 As shown, the utility model discloses a blood glucose test strip box that is easy to take out, including a box body 1 and a test strip 23, the box body 1 is provided with a storage chamber 2 for storing the test strip 23, the box body 1 includes a storage chamber 2, a first control chamber 3 and a second control chamber 4, the first control chamber 3 and the second control chamber 4 are separated by a first partition 5, and the second control chamber 4 and the storage chamber 2 are separated by a second partition 6, the first control chamber 3 is provided with a vertical first guide groove 7 corresponding to the side wall of the box body 1, the first partition 5 and the second partition 6 are respectively provided with a second guide groove 8 and a third guide groove 9 corresponding to the first guide groove 7, a movable pressure rod 10 is provided on the first guide groove 7 to pass through the second control chamber 4, a first elastic component 11 is provided in the first control chamber 3, and a transmission component is provided on the third guide groove 9, a plurality of guide ridges 12 are provided on the transmission component at equal intervals, the free end of the movable pressure rod 10 is adapted to abut against the guide ridge 12, and an inclined base 13 is provided on the bottom surface of the storage chamber 2 facing the second partition 6.
[0027] The transmission assembly includes a rotating belt 14 and two positioning shafts 15. The two positioning shafts 15 are disposed on the inner rings at both ends of the rotating belt 14 and are mated with the rotating belt 14. The positioning shafts 15 are mounted on the side edges of the third guide groove 9. Specifically, the long axis of the transmission belt 14 is arranged parallel to the channel of the third guide groove 9, and the belt surface of the rotating belt 14 covers the third guide groove 9. The positioning shafts 15 secure and guide the rotating belt 14, allowing it to rotate in the third guide groove 9 under external control. A guide rib 12 is fixed to the outer ring of the rotating belt 14, and the movable pressure rod 10 abuts against it, enabling the rotating belt 14 to rotate in unison.
[0028] The distance between any two guide ridges 12 is greater than the length of the test strip 23, and the vertical length of the rotating belt 14 is less than the vertical length of the third guide groove 9. Specifically, during the rotation of the rotating belt 14, the distance between any two guide ridges 12 is the length of the test strip 23. When a test strip 23 is transported to the opening of the box body 1, any guide ridge 12 is located at the bottom of the rotating belt 14 to facilitate the transportation of the next test strip 23. The vertical length of the third guide groove 9 is greater than the length of the rotating belt 14 plus the sum of the lengths of the two guide ridges 12. That is, during the rotation of the rotating belt 14, when the guide ridge 12 moves to the top and bottom of the rotating belt 14, it can pass through the gap between the rotating belt 14 and the third guide groove 9, ensuring that the rotating belt 14 can rotate smoothly.
[0029] The lower portion of the free end of the movable pressure rod 10 is rotatably connected to a rotating block 16. A transverse stopper 17 is provided at the upper portion of the free end of the movable pressure rod 10. A second elastic component 18 is connected between the stopper 17 and the rotating block 16. Specifically, when the movable rod 10 moves upward, the rotating block 16 abuts against the guide rib 12. At this time, the rotating block 16 bends downward until it passes through the guide rib 12. Then, the rotating block 16 returns to a horizontal state under the traction of the second elastic component 18. When the movable rod 10 moves downward, the rotating block 16 abuts against the guide rib 12. At this time, the rotating block 16 receives an upward force. Under the action of the stopper 17, the rotating block 16 drives the guide rib 12 downward. At this time, the guide rib 12 on the other side of the rotating belt 14 moves upward, thereby driving the test strip 23 upward, thereby realizing the function of taking the test strip. Preferably, the pulling force required by the second elastic component 18 is smaller than the rotational friction of the rotating belt 14, that is, in the process of moving the movable pressure rod 10 upward, the rotating block 16 abuts against the guide ridge 12. At this time, due to the static friction of the positioning shaft 15, the second elastic component 18 is elastically deformed by the resistance of the guide ridge 12, but the force is not greater than the static friction of the positioning shaft 15. Therefore, the movable pressure rod 10 can move upward without the positioning shaft 15 rotating and the guide ridge 12 moving. This ensures that after one use is completed, the subsequent guide ridge 12 is just located at the bottom of the rotating belt 14 to facilitate the next use.
[0030] The movable pressure rod 10 is provided with two sets of limiting clips 19, which respectively engage with the first guide groove 7 and the second guide groove 8. Specifically, the two sets of limiting clips 19 ensure that the movable pressure rod 10 remains horizontal during the pressing process, preventing the movable pressure rod 10 from dislodging from the first guide groove 7 and the second guide groove 8. In addition, a pressing member is provided at the rear end of the movable pressure rod 10 to facilitate the user's pressing operation on the movable pressure rod 10, improving convenience.
[0031] A rotating cover 20 is provided on the top surface of the box body 1. The rotating cover 20 is rotatably connected to the box body 1 via a torsion spring 21. The opening of the rotating cover 20 is aligned vertically with the lower end of the inclined surface of the inclined base 13. Specifically, as the rotating belt 14 rotates, a test strip 23 is conveyed upward, which pushes the rotating cover 20 open. After the test strip is removed, the rotating cover 20 is closed again under the action of the torsion spring 21, thereby protecting the interior of the box body 1 from external contamination.
[0032] The box body 1 is a cylindrical structure, and the cross section of the storage cavity 2 is a semicircular structure.
[0033] Two limiting seats 22 are also provided in the storage chamber 2. The surfaces of the two limiting seats 22 are arranged parallel to the axial direction of the movable pressure rod 10, and the test strip 23 is placed between the two limiting seats 22. Specifically, the limiting seats 22 are used to confine the test strip 23 to the middle of the storage chamber 2. Since the test strip 23 has a certain length, it is inevitable that it will turn over and shake during the use of the box body 1. The limiting seats 22 can limit the inclination angle of the test strip 23 to ensure that the test strip 23 is basically in a vertical state. When the test strip 23 is at the bottom of the inclined base 13, the test strip 23 can be smoothly removed.
[0034] Example 2
[0035] Press the movable pressure rod 10 downward, and the movable pressure rod 10 moves downward in the first guide groove 7. The rotating block 16 at the free end of the pressure rod contacts the guide ridge 12, pushing the guide ridge 12 to drive the rotating belt 14 downward. At this time, the guide ridge 12 on the other side moves upward. Because several test strips 23 are affected by the inclined base 13, a pressure is generated toward the lower surface of the inclined base 13 under the action of gravity. At this time, the test strip 23 located at the bottom of the inclined base 13 moves vertically upward under the action of the guide ridge 12. The test strip 23 is lifted up and the rotating cover 20 is pushed open for easy access. After releasing the movable pressure rod 10, the movable pressure rod 10 returns to its initial position under the action of the first elastic component 11.
[0036] Of course, the present invention may have many other implementation methods. Without departing from the spirit and essence of the present invention, technicians familiar with the field may make various corresponding changes and deformations based on the present invention, but these corresponding changes and deformations should all fall within the scope of protection of the claims attached to the present invention.
