Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of blood glucose test strip bottles, specifically to a moisture-proof and light-proof blood glucose test strip bottle. Background Technology

[0002] For diabetic patients, using blood glucose test strips to monitor blood sugar is a common self-monitoring method. Blood glucose test strips contain substances such as glucose oxidase and peroxidase. When blood is dripped onto the test strip, glucose oxidase reacts with glucose in the blood to produce gluconic acid and hydrogen peroxide. Peroxidase catalyzes the reaction between hydrogen peroxide and the colorimetric reagent on the test strip, producing a color change. Patients use a blood glucose meter to calculate their blood glucose concentration by detecting the degree of color change, and the blood glucose value is displayed visually on the meter.

[0003] The storage environment of blood glucose test strips has a significant impact on the accuracy of test results. Blood glucose test strips should be stored in a dry, cool, and dark environment, avoiding moisture, heat, or direct sunlight. This is because factors such as humidity, temperature, and light can cause changes in the chemical substances on the test strips, thus affecting the accuracy of the test. Conventional blood glucose test strips are usually packaged in a bottle. When using them, open the bottle, quickly remove one test strip, and immediately close the bottle to minimize the contact time between the remaining test strips and the external environment. The problem is that the moment the bottle is opened, all the test strips inside are exposed to the external environment. Although quickly closing the bottle reduces the impact to some extent, frequent opening of the bottle over a long period can still expose the later-removed test strips to more external environmental influences, potentially leading to inaccurate test results.

[0004] Therefore, how to design a blood glucose test strip bottle that can reduce the contact between the test strip and the external environment and avoid detection deviation is a technical problem that has not yet been solved in the existing technology. Utility Model Content

[0005] Therefore, the technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to overcome the technical defect that frequent opening of blood glucose test strip bottles in the prior art will cause the test strips taken out later to be more affected by the external environment, resulting in deviations in the test results. This invention provides a blood glucose test strip bottle that can reduce the contact between the test strips and the external environment, thus avoiding test deviations.

[0006] Therefore, this utility model provides a moisture-proof and light-proof blood glucose test strip bottle, comprising:

[0007] The main body has at least one placement cavity, the placement cavity having an end opening through which a blood glucose test strip can be placed;

[0008] The inner cover is rotatably installed inside the main body cylinder and has an installation through hole; by rotating the inner cover, the installation through hole can be aligned vertically with the end opening of the placement cavity at different positions.

[0009] A guide component is installed in the mounting through hole and has a test strip outlet, which is suitable for pouring out a single blood glucose test strip.

[0010] The cap is detachably mounted on the open end of the main body cylinder and can seal the main body cylinder when closed.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment, the placement cavities are evenly distributed circumferentially within the main body cylinder; the bottom of the inner cover is provided with an annular sealing protrusion, the shape of which matches the shape of the end opening of the placement cavity, thereby sealing the end opening of the placement cavity; the mounting through hole penetrates the sealing protrusion.

[0012] As a preferred embodiment, the bottom of the guide member is provided with a guide protrusion, and a V-shaped opening is formed in the middle of the guide protrusion, which extends through both sides and is open at one end. Guide slopes are formed on both sides of the V-shaped opening.

[0013] As a preferred embodiment, the junction of the two guide ramps forms a smooth guide line, with one end of the guide line being higher and the other end being lower, and the test strip outlet being located at the lowest end of the guide line.

[0014] As a preferred embodiment, the guide component is made of a transparent material;

[0015] It also includes a light-blocking plate, which is adjustablely mounted on the top of the guide and has an elongated opening. The opening is positioned opposite the test strip outlet and its size is greater than or equal to that of the test strip outlet.

[0016] As a preferred embodiment, the inner cover is installed inside the main body cylinder via a mounting structure;

[0017] The mounting structure includes:

[0018] A limiting component is formed in the middle of the main body cylinder;

[0019] The first buckle, made of elastic material, is disposed on one side of the top of the limiting member, including a first connecting part and a first limiting flange formed on the top side of the first connecting part and protruding outward;

[0020] The second buckle, made of elastic material, is disposed on the other side of the top of the limiting member at a certain distance from the first buckle. It includes a second connecting part and a second limiting flange formed on the top side of the second connecting part and protruding outward.

[0021] A rotating through hole is formed in the middle of the inner cover and has an inner flange. The inner cover presses the first buckle and the second buckle through the rotating through hole, so that the rotating through hole is installed between the first limiting flange, the second limiting flange and the limiting member, and is limited by the first limiting flange and the second limiting flange through the inner flange, thereby limiting and fixing the inner cover.

[0022] As a preferred embodiment, the top of the inner cover is provided with a rotating groove with an end opening, and the two ends of the rotating groove form an operating surface suitable for finger pushing.

[0023] As a preferred embodiment, a limiting strip hole is formed on the outer circumferential wall of the mounting through hole, and a limiting protrusion is provided on one side of the guide member opposite to the limiting strip hole. The limiting protrusion can be matched and installed with the limiting strip hole, thereby limiting and fixing the guide member.

[0024] As a preferred embodiment, an operation plate is provided on the top of the light-blocking plate.

[0025] As a preferred embodiment, the guide member has a mounting hole at its top, and the light-blocking plate is provided with a mounting shaft opposite to the mounting hole. The mounting shaft can be matched and installed with the mounting hole, thereby installing the light-blocking plate on the guide member. The light-blocking plate can rotate relative to the guide member through the mounting shaft, thereby achieving position adjustment.

[0026] The technical solution provided by this utility model has the following advantages:

[0027] This utility model relates to a moisture-proof and light-proof blood glucose test strip bottle, comprising a main body, an inner cap, a guide, and a tube cap.

The tube cap is closable and can be installed on the open end of the main body, and can seal the main body when closed.

[0028] When using blood glucose test strips, diabetic patients simply open the cap, invert the main tube, and gently shake it to dispense a test strip from the outlet. Then, quickly close the cap. If the test strip does not dispense smoothly, rotate the inner cap to align the mounting hole perpendicularly with the other placement chamber, then invert the main tube and shake it again to dispense a test strip. Finally, quickly close the cap. This novel moisture-proof and light-proof blood glucose test strip bottle has an inner cap inside the main tube. When the cap is opened, the remaining test strips inside are not completely exposed to the external environment, preventing any changes in the chemical properties of the test strips and ensuring the accuracy of the test results.

It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of this application can be combined with each other.

[0044] The present application will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. Example

[0045] This embodiment provides a moisture-proof and light-proof blood glucose test strip bottle, such as... Figure 1-3 As shown in Figures 9-10, the device includes: a main body cylinder 1, an inner cover 2, a guide member 3, and a cylinder cap 4; wherein, the main body cylinder 1 has at least one placement cavity 11, the placement cavity 11 having an end opening through which blood glucose test strips can be placed; the inner cover 2 is rotatably installed inside the main body cylinder 1 and has an installation through hole 21; by rotating the inner cover 2, the installation through hole 21 can be aligned vertically with the end openings of the placement cavities 11 at different positions; the guide member 3 is installed in the installation through hole 21 and has a test strip outlet 31, the test strip outlet 31 being suitable for pouring out individual blood glucose test strips; the cylinder cap 4 is closably installed on the open end of the main body cylinder 1, and when closed, it can seal the main body cylinder 1.

[0046] When a diabetic patient uses a blood glucose test strip, they open the cap 4, invert the main tube 1, and gently shake it to allow one test strip to be dispensed from the test strip outlet 31. Then, quickly close the cap 4. If the test strip fails to dispense smoothly, rotate the inner cap 2 to align the mounting hole 21 perpendicularly with the other placement cavity 11. Then, invert the main tube 1 again and shake it to dispense one test strip from the test strip outlet 31. Finally, quickly close the cap 4. This embodiment of a moisture-proof and light-proof blood glucose test strip bottle has an inner cap 2 installed inside the main tube 1. When the cap 4 is opened, the remaining test strips inside the tube will not be completely exposed to the external environment, preventing any change in the chemical properties of the test strips and ensuring the accuracy of the test results.

[0047] like Figure 5 , 7 As shown in Figure 8, several placement cavities 11 are evenly arranged circumferentially inside the main body cylinder 1; the bottom of the inner cover 2 is provided with an annular sealing protrusion 22, the shape of which matches the shape of the end opening of the placement cavity 11, and can seal the end opening of the placement cavity 11; the mounting through hole 21 penetrates the sealing protrusion 22. The inner cover 2 is installed inside the main body cylinder 1, and the mounting through hole 21 is perpendicularly aligned with the end opening of one of the placement cavities 11, and the sealing protrusion 22 seals the end openings of the remaining placement cavities 11; when the inner cover 2 is rotated, the mounting through hole 21 is perpendicularly aligned with the end opening of another placement cavity 11, and the sealing protrusion 22 seals the end openings of the remaining placement cavities 11; this design can prevent unused blood glucose test strips from coming into contact with the external environment, thus affecting the accuracy of the test.

[0048] like Figure 6-10As shown, the bottom of the guide member 3 is provided with a guide protrusion 32. A V-shaped opening, penetrating both sides and open at one end, is formed in the middle of the guide protrusion 32. Guide slopes 33 are formed on both sides of the V-shaped opening. A smooth guide line is formed at the junction of the two guide slopes 33, with one end higher than the other. The test strip outlet 31 is located at the lowest end of the guide line. The guide slopes 33 and the guide line guide the blood glucose test strip to the test strip outlet 31, facilitating the dispensing of the test strip. This design allows the test strip to naturally move towards the test strip outlet 31 when used, thus making it easy to dispense.

[0049] The guide member 3 is made of transparent material; it also includes a light-blocking plate 5, which is adjustablely mounted on the top of the guide member 3 and has an elongated opening 51. The opening 51 is positioned opposite the test strip outlet 31 and its size is greater than or equal to that of the test strip outlet 31. The guide member 3 is made of transparent material, which allows for easy observation of the presence and quantity of blood glucose test strips in the placement cavity 11. The light-blocking plate 5 is used to shield the guide member 3, preventing light from passing through the light-blocking plate 5 and illuminating the blood glucose test strips, which could alter their properties and affect the accuracy of the blood glucose test.

[0050] like Figure 3 and 4 As shown, the inner cover 2 is installed inside the main body cylinder 1 via an installation structure; the installation structure includes a limiting member 6, a first buckle 61, a second buckle 63, and a rotating through hole 65; wherein, the limiting member 6 is formed in the middle of the main body cylinder 1; the first buckle 61 is made of elastic material and is disposed on one side of the top of the limiting member 6, including a first connecting part 67 and a first limiting flange 62 formed on one side of the top of the first connecting part 67 and protruding outward; the second buckle 63 is made of elastic material and is disposed on the other side of the top of the limiting member 6 at a certain distance from the first buckle 61, including... The second connecting portion 68 and the second limiting flange 64 formed on the top side of the second connecting portion 68 and protruding outward; the rotating through hole 65 is opened in the middle of the inner cover 2 and has an inner flange 66; the inner cover 2 presses the first buckle 61 and the second buckle 63 through the rotating through hole 65, so that the rotating through hole 65 is installed between the first limiting flange 62, the second limiting flange 64 and the limiting member 6, and is limited by the first limiting flange 62 and the second limiting flange 64 through the inner flange 66, thereby limiting and fixing the inner cover 2.

[0051] The inner cover 2 has a rotating groove 23 with an end opening at its top, and the two ends of the rotating groove 23 form an operating surface 26 suitable for pushing with a finger. When rotating the inner cover 2, the operator uses their finger to push the operating surface 26, thereby pushing the inner cover 2 to rotate.

[0052] The mounting through hole 21 has a limiting strip hole 24 on its outer circumference. A limiting protrusion 25 is provided on one side of the guide member 3 opposite to the limiting strip hole 24. The limiting protrusion 25 can be matched and installed with the limiting strip hole 24, thereby limiting and fixing the guide member 3.

[0053] An operating plate 52 is provided on the top of the light-blocking plate 5. The operator can adjust the position of the light-blocking plate 5 by pushing the operating plate 52, thereby observing the number of blood glucose test strips in the placement cavity 11.

[0054] The guide member 3 has a mounting hole 34 on its top. The light-blocking plate 5 is provided with a mounting shaft 35 opposite to the mounting hole 34. The mounting shaft 35 can be matched and installed with the mounting hole 34, thereby installing the light-blocking plate 5 on the guide member 3. The light-blocking plate 5 can rotate relative to the guide member 3 through the mounting shaft 35, thereby realizing position adjustment.

[0055] The moisture-proof and light-proof blood glucose test strip bottle in this embodiment is used as follows: When a diabetic patient takes a blood glucose test strip, open the cap 4, invert the main tube 1 and shake it gently. Guided by the guide protrusion 32 and guide slope 33, the blood glucose test strip is guided towards the test strip outlet 31 and poured out. Then, quickly close the cap 4. If the test strip cannot be shaken out smoothly during use, adjust the position of the light-blocking plate 5 using the operating plate 52 and observe the number of test strips in the placement cavity 11. If the number of blood glucose test strips in the placement cavity 11 is zero, rotate the inner cap 2 using the operating plane 26 of the rotating groove 23 to vertically align the mounting through hole 21 with another placement cavity 11. Then, invert the main tube 1 and shake it. Guided by the guide protrusion 32 and guide slope 33, the blood glucose test strip is guided towards the test strip outlet 31 and poured out. Then, quickly close the cap 4.

[0056] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely illustrative examples for clear explanation and are not intended to limit the implementation. Those skilled in the art can make other variations or modifications based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively list all possible implementations here. However, obvious variations or modifications derived therefrom are still within the protection scope of this innovative technical solution.
