Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of blood glucose meter technology, specifically a portable blood glucose meter. Background Technology

[0002] A blood glucose meter is a medical device used to monitor blood glucose levels, which is very important for diabetic patients. A typical blood glucose meter usually uses a three-electrode system in electrochemical analysis, including a working electrode, a reference electrode, and a counter electrode. It measures blood glucose by measuring the amount of current generated by the reaction between glucose in the blood and glucose oxidase or glucose dehydrogenase in the test strip. To make it more convenient for diabetic patients to test in daily life, a portable blood glucose meter has appeared on the market, which is convenient to carry around and test anytime, anywhere.

[0003] However, existing technologies have some problems: Currently available portable blood glucose meters generally require removing the test strip and inserting it into the meter, then using the test strip to draw blood from the finger for testing, and finally removing the test strip for the next use. Throughout the process, the blood glucose meter and the test strip are placed separately, which means that the test strip needs to be taken out of the test strip box each time it is used. However, the user's hands will come into contact with the test strip during the process. If the user's hands are not cleaned before use, the test strip may be contaminated, which has certain limitations. Therefore, we propose a portable blood glucose meter. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model discloses a portable blood glucose meter to solve the problem mentioned in the background art where blood glucose meter test strips are easily contaminated during handling.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a portable blood glucose meter, comprising a blood glucose meter body, a protective component, a refill component, and a pressing component;

[0006] The protective component includes a protective shell, a cover plate installed on the upper surface of the protective shell, a baffle plate provided at one end of the protective shell, and a sliding groove opened on one side of the protective shell;

[0007] The main body of the blood glucose meter is located inside the protective component. One end of the protective component has a placement compartment, which is correspondingly positioned to the test strip slot of the main body of the blood glucose meter.

[0008] A material changing assembly includes a storage box disposed within a chute. Limiting grooves are formed on both sides of the inner wall of the chute.

An electric slide is provided on the upper surface of the base plate, and a stop block is slidably installed on the upper end of the electric slide. A clamping opening is provided on one side of the stop block for fixing the test paper.

[0009] The pressing assembly has a through groove on one end of its upper surface. The through groove is vertically aligned with the placement chamber. The pressing assembly is disposed within the through groove and is vertically aligned with the feeding mechanism. The pressing assembly includes an adjustment button disposed within the through groove on the upper surface of the protective shell. An electric push rod is electrically connected below the adjustment button. A pressure plate is disposed at one end of the piston rod of the electric push rod, and the pressure plate is vertically aligned with the connecting rod.

[0010] Preferably, both ends of the inner wall of the storage box are equipped with ultraviolet lamps, which are used to sterilize and disinfect the test strips inside the storage box.

[0011] Preferably, the stop block slides on the upper surface of the base plate via the electric slide to adjust the position of the clamp to accommodate test strips of different sizes.

[0012] Preferably, the adjustment button is used to control the extension and retraction of the electric push rod, thereby driving the pressure plate to move up and down. The pressure plate pushes the bottom plate in the feeding mechanism by pressing down the connecting rod, so that the test paper fixed in the clamp can be pushed into the placement chamber.

[0013] Preferably, the limiting groove cooperates with the blocking block to limit the sliding range of the storage box within the sliding groove.

[0014] Preferably, one end of the cover plate is rotatably connected to the upper surface of the protective shell, and the baffle is used to partially shield and protect the placement compartment.

[0015] Preferably, the cover plate is used to close the opening on the upper surface of the protective shell to protect the blood glucose meter body and other components inside the protective shell.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0017] 1. In this utility model, a pressing component and a material changing component are provided. By the cooperation of the pressing component and the material changing component, the user's hand can be placed and removed from the test strip without contact with the test strip. This effectively avoids contamination of the test strip during the handling process, improves the cleanliness of the test strip, and thus improves the detection effect.

[0018] 2. In this utility model, a protective component is provided to effectively prevent damage caused by dropping when carried out, thereby improving the protection of the blood glucose meter body and extending its service life. Attached Figure Description

[0027] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments described herein are for illustration and explanation only and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0028] Example: Figures 1-5As shown, a portable blood glucose meter includes:

[0029] The protective component 1 and the blood glucose meter body 3 are arranged inside the protective component 1. One end of the protective component 1 has a placement compartment 5, which is correspondingly arranged with the test strip slot of the blood glucose meter body 3.

[0030] Specifically, such as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the main body 3 of the blood glucose meter is inside the protective component 1. The protective component 1 can protect the main body 3 of the blood glucose meter, effectively preventing it from falling and being damaged when carried around, thus extending its service life. The placement compartment 5 at one end of the protective component 1 is used to place test strips, and the space in the placement compartment 5 is large enough to allow a finger to be inserted, thereby preventing the test strips from being contaminated without affecting normal use, thus improving the detection effect.

[0031] Furthermore, the material changing component 2 includes a storage box 201, with ultraviolet lamps 204 installed at both ends of the inner wall of the storage box 201, and multiple sets of material dispensing mechanisms 202 installed inside the storage box 201 for placing test strips; and a pressing component 4, with a through groove opened at one end of the upper surface of the protective component 1, the through groove being vertically corresponding to the placement chamber 5, the pressing component 4 being installed in the through groove, and the pressing component 4 being correspondingly installed to the material dispensing mechanism 202.

[0032] Specifically, such as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, during use, the pressing component 4 is activated, pressing down the first dispensing mechanism 202 to move it into the placement chamber 5. The dispensing mechanism 202 then inserts the test strip into the test strip slot of the blood glucose meter body 3. The user then inserts their bleeding finger into the placement chamber 5, allowing the blood to come into contact with the test strip for testing. This prevents the user's hand from contacting the test strip during placement, effectively avoiding contamination and improving the cleanliness of the test strip, thus enhancing the testing effect. For the next test, the first dispensing mechanism 202 is reset, and the storage box 201 is pushed, moving the other dispensing mechanism 202 below the pressing component 4. This unused set of test strips is then used. This process is repeated until one end of the storage box 201 protrudes from the protective component 1. At this point, the test strips are used up and need to be refilled. After refilling, the storage box 201 is placed back into place from the other end of the protective component 1 for continued use.

[0033] It should be noted that the inner wall of the storage box 201 is equipped with a UV lamp 204, which can disinfect the inside of the storage box 201 and prevent the growth of bacteria.

[0034] Furthermore, the protective component 1 includes a protective shell 101, a cover plate 102 is rotatably mounted on the upper surface of the protective shell 101, and a baffle 103 is provided at one end of the protective shell 101, with the baffle 103 corresponding to the placement compartment 5.

[0035] Specifically, such as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the cover plate 102 and the protective shell 101 can protect the blood glucose meter body 3 and extend the service life of the blood glucose meter body 3. The baffle 103 can seal the storage compartment 5. When not in use, it can prevent dust and impurities from falling into the storage compartment 5 and improve the protection effect.

[0036] Furthermore, a sliding groove 104 is provided on one side of the protective shell 101, and the storage box 201 is disposed in the sliding groove 104. Limiting grooves 105 are provided on both sides of the inner wall of the sliding groove 104, and blocking blocks 205 are provided at both ends of the storage box 201. The blocking blocks 205 are correspondingly disposed with the limiting grooves 105.

[0037] Specifically, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the block 205 is made of soft material and the limiting groove 105 is slightly recessed. As long as the block 205 is subjected to force, it can move from one set of limiting grooves 105 to another set of limiting grooves 105, thereby increasing the resistance to the storage box 201 and preventing excessive sliding.

[0038] It should be noted that the blocking block 205 is set in a corresponding manner with the feeding mechanism 202. When the blocking block 205 moves from one set of limiting grooves 105 to another set of limiting grooves 105, it means that one set of feeding mechanisms 202 moves to the position of the previous set of feeding mechanisms 202, thereby achieving the effect of positioning the feeding mechanism 202 and avoiding the situation of movement jamming.

[0039] Furthermore, the feeding mechanism 202 includes a base plate 2021, with connecting rods 2023 provided at both ends of the base plate 2021, and guide grooves 203 provided on both sides of the inner wall of the storage box 201, with the connecting rods 2023 slidably installed in the guide grooves 203.

[0040] Specifically, such as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the connecting rod 2023 can slide up and down in the guide groove 203, thereby driving the base plate 2021 to slide up and down, so as to facilitate the movement of the test paper above the base plate 2021 into the placement chamber 5.

[0041] Furthermore, an electric slide table 2022 is provided on the upper surface of the base plate 2021, and a stop block 2024 is slidably installed on the upper end of the electric slide table 2022. A clamping opening 2025 is provided on one side of the stop block 2024.

[0042] Specifically, such as Figure 5As shown, after the base plate 2021 moves into the placement compartment 5, the electric slide 2022 is activated, which drives the stop block 2024 to slide to one end, thereby pushing the test strip and engaging it with the test strip slot of the blood glucose meter body 3. After use, the stop block 2024 is reset, and the test strip is removed from the slot, thus improving the ease of use.

[0043] Furthermore, the pressing component 4 includes an adjustment button 401, which is located in a through groove on the upper surface of the protective shell 101. An electric push rod 402 is electrically connected below the adjustment button 401. A pressure plate 403 is provided at one end of the piston rod of the electric push rod 402. The pressure plate 403 and the connecting rod 2023 are arranged vertically in correspondence.

[0044] Specifically, such as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, there are two sets of adjustment buttons 401 for driving the electric push rod 402 up and down. In use, pressing one set of adjustment buttons 401 drives the electric push rod 402 down, at which point the pressure plate 403 slides down, applying pressure to the connecting rod 2023 and causing the base plate 2021 to move. Conversely, pressing the other set of adjustment buttons 401 drives the electric push rod 402 up, which resets the base plate 2021. This achieves the effect of convenient use, and the test strip can be placed and removed without using your hands.

[0045] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
