[0002] As people's living standards improve, they're paying more attention to their health and well-being, focusing on maintaining a healthy lifestyle and monitoring various body parameters. For example, they need to regularly check their blood sugar levels. Regular blood sugar monitoring is often used to monitor physical health and other health indicators.

[0003] A dynamic blood glucose meter is a commonly used blood glucose measurement device. It implants a blood glucose sensor subcutaneously. The enzyme on the sensor reacts with the subcutaneous tissue fluid to detect the blood glucose level. The blood glucose level is then sent to the terminal with the help of a transmitter, thereby collecting continuous blood glucose levels. Dynamic blood glucose meters are mostly battery-powered. To ensure long-term battery life, when blood glucose testing is not being performed, the dynamic blood glucose meter needs to enter a dormant state to reduce power consumption. Currently, the mainstream dynamic blood glucose meters use NFC or Hall switches to switch from dormant state (wake-up), but both methods involve circuit control, and when the dynamic blood glucose meter enters dormant state, it will still consume a certain amount of power.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0025] In order to make the purpose, technical scheme and advantages of the present application clearer, the technical scheme of the present application will be described clearly and completely below in combination with the specific embodiments of the present application and the corresponding drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some of the embodiments of the present application, but not all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all the other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without making creative efforts fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0026] The technical scheme provided by each embodiment of the present application will be described in detail below in combination with the drawings.

[0027] An embodiment of the present application provides a hibernation switching structure of a blood glucose meter, as shown in Figures 1 to 4 The hibernation switching structure includes an upper shell 1, a lower shell 2, a first metal piece 3, a second metal piece 4 and a cap 5. The upper shell, the lower shell and the cap are all made of insulating material.

[0028] Specifically, the upper shell 1 and the lower shell 2 are fixedly connected, and an accommodating cavity is formed between the upper shell 1 and the lower shell 2, and a circuit board 6 is arranged in the accommodating cavity. The upper end surface of the upper shell 1 is provided with a first through hole and a second through hole, and the first through hole and the second through hole are arranged at intervals. One end of the first metal part 3 and one end of the second metal part 4 are respectively electrically connected to the circuit board 6 in the accommodating cavity, and the other end of the first metal part 3 is passed through the first through hole and protrudes from the upper end surface of the upper shell 1. The other end of the second metal part 4 is passed through the second through hole and protrudes from the upper end surface of the upper shell 1; wherein the first metal part, the second metal part and the upper shell can be formed into a whole by intramold injection molding to achieve relative fixation of the first metal part, the second metal part and the upper shell.

[0029] In addition, a conductive layer 7 is fixed on the lower end surface of the cap 5, a clamping arm 8 is provided on the outer circumference of the cap 5, and a clamping slot 9 is provided on the lower shell 2 to cooperate with the clamping arm 8. The clamping slot can also be provided on the upper shell.

[0030] When the cap 5 is manually placed on the upper shell 1 so that the arm 8 is inserted into the slot 9, the first metal part 3 and the second metal part 4 abut against the conductive layer 7, and a path is formed between the first metal part 3 and the second metal part 4 through the conductive layer 7. At this time, the circuit board 6 controls the blood glucose meter to enter the sleep state. When the cap 5 is manually peeled off from the upper shell 1 so that the arm 8 is disengaged from the slot 9, the first metal part 3 and the second metal part 4 separate from the conductive layer 7, and a short circuit is formed between the first metal part 3 and the second metal part 4. At this time, the circuit board 6 controls the blood glucose meter to enter the working state. In this way, by manually controlling the positional relationship between the cap 5 and the upper shell 1, that is, manually controlling the positional relationship between the arm 8 and the slot 9, the blood glucose meter can be switched from the sleep state to the working state, which is more convenient to use. In addition, since the sleep switching structure is manually operated, no electricity is consumed, which reduces the power consumption of the blood glucose meter.

[0031] In the sleep switching structure of the present invention, a first metal part and a second metal part electrically connected to the circuit board are provided, and a conductive layer is provided on the lower end surface of the cap. When the cap is manually covered on the upper shell, the first metal part and the second metal part abut against the conductive layer to form a path, and the blood glucose meter enters the sleep state. When the cap is manually detached from the upper shell, the first metal part and the second metal part are separated from the conductive layer to form a short circuit, and the blood glucose meter enters the working state, thereby realizing manual switching of the blood glucose meter between the sleep state and the working state. The sleep switching structure has the advantages of simple structure, easy operation, low manufacturing cost and no power consumption.

[0032] In this embodiment, if Figures 1 to 3As shown, the cap 5 is provided with a first clamping arm 8-1 and a second clamping arm 8~2, and the first clamping arm 8-1 and the second clamping arm 8-2 are respectively arranged on both sides of the cap 5, and the lower shell 2 is provided with a first clamping groove 9 and a second clamping groove 9 corresponding to the first clamping arm 8-1 and the second clamping arm 8-2 respectively, that is, both sides of the cap 5 are clamped with the lower shell 2 through the clamping arm 8, so that the cap 5 can be stably clamped and fixed on the upper shell 1 through the clamping arm 8 and the clamping groove 9.

[0033] Furthermore, if Figures 1 to 3 As shown, a first flange 10 extends downward from one side of the cap 5, and a second flange 11 extends downward from the other side of the cap 5. The tail end of the first arm 8-1 and the tail end of the second arm 8-2 are respectively fixed to the two ends of the first flange 10. The head end of the first arm 8-1 extends toward the second flange 11 along the circumference of the cap 5, and the head end of the second arm 8-2 extends toward the second flange 11 along the circumference of the cap 5. In this way, when the cap 5 is covered on the upper shell 1, the first flange 10, the first arm 8-1, the second flange 11, and the second arm 8-2 form an embrace around the lower shell 2, preventing dust particles from entering between the cap 5 and the upper shell 1 and affecting the conductive stability between the conductive layer 7 and the first metal component 3, and between the conductive layer 7 and the second metal component 4.

[0034] In addition, a guide groove (not shown in the figure) is provided on the lower shell 2. Figure 3 As shown, the cap 5 is provided with a guide post 12 that cooperates with the guide groove to guide the clamping arm 8 into the clamping groove 9, so that the clamping arm 8 can be accurately clamped into the clamping groove 9. The guide groove and the guide post 12 can also play a foolproof role. Of course, in other embodiments, the guide groove can also be provided on the upper shell.

[0035] In addition, if Figures 1 to 3 As shown, a protruding buckle portion 13 is provided on the outer circumference of the cap 5 , and the buckle portion 13 is used to provide a fulcrum for the user's fingers, so that the user can more easily peel the cap 5 from the upper shell 1 .

[0036] In this embodiment, the conductive layer is a conductive foam layer. The conductive foam has a certain elasticity, which improves the conductivity and stability when the first metal member and the second metal member abut against the conductive layer. The conductive layer can also be a conductive paint layer or a metal foil layer, which is also within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0037] Furthermore, the conductive layer is fixed to the cap by gluing, thereby ensuring the firmness of the connection between the conductive layer and the cap.

[0038] In addition, the first metal member and the second metal member are spring pins or metal springs, so that the first metal member and the second metal member are more stably abutted against the conductive layer, thereby improving the stability of conduction.

[0039] In addition, if Figure 4As shown, an annular fixing groove 14 is formed on the outer circumference of the lower shell 2, and a fixing flange that cooperates with the fixing groove 14 is provided on the outer circumference of the upper shell 1. The fixing flange is inserted into the fixing groove 14 to achieve a fixed connection between the upper shell 1 and the lower shell 2, making the structure simpler and also preventing dust from entering the accommodating cavity between the upper shell 1 and the lower shell 2.

[0040] Another embodiment of the present invention provides a dynamic blood glucose meter, which includes the sleep switching structure of the blood glucose meter in the above embodiment. The dynamic blood glucose meter has low power consumption and can achieve long battery life.

[0041] The above description is only a specific embodiment of the present invention. Based on the above teachings of the present invention, those skilled in the art may make other improvements or modifications based on the above embodiments. Those skilled in the art should understand that the above description is only a better explanation of the purpose of the present invention, and the scope of protection of the present invention shall be based on the scope of protection of the claims.
