Patients need to call the nurse to remove the needle after one IV bag is finished to prevent backflow of blood, or to request a new IV bag to continue the infusion. Nurses need to closely monitor the patients' infusion progress, especially when one nurse is handling multiple patients, requiring frequent movement between patients until all infusions are completed.

[0003] Therefore, patients find it difficult to get proper rest, while nurses face a heavy workload and considerable hardship. Utility Model Content

[0004] The present invention aims to solve at least one of the problems of the prior art. To this end, the present invention provides an infusion monitoring device and an infusion monitoring apparatus that can automatically monitor the infusion status, providing convenience for patients and medical staff.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is:

[0006] In a first aspect, embodiments of the present invention provide an infusion monitoring device, comprising:

[0007] A housing having a cavity for mounting a dripping funnel and a drip tube;

[0008] A motor assembly, configured as one or more, is installed within the housing. The motor assembly includes a motor and an extrusion head connected to the motor, the extrusion head being retractable and driven by the motor.

[0014] Optionally, the front cover is provided with a flow regulating pulley, which is used to squeeze or release the drip tube.

[0015] Optionally, the main shell is provided with a plurality of isolation grooves for installing drip tubes; at least a portion of the groove wall of the isolation groove is an inclined wall, and the flow regulating pulley is disposed opposite to the inclined wall.

[0016] Optionally, the main shell or front cover is provided with a snap-fit ​​part, and the front cover or main shell is provided with a cover switch that cooperates with the snap-fit ​​part, and the cover switch is provided with a spring.

[0017] Optionally, a battery box is provided on the rear cover.

[0018] Optionally, the housing is provided with hooks.

[0019] Secondly, this utility model provides an infusion monitoring device, including the infusion monitoring equipment described in any of the embodiments of the first aspect above, and further including a drip chamber and a drip tube. The drip chamber is detachably installed in the housing and is made of transparent material. The drip tube is connected to the drip chamber, and there are one or more drip tubes extending out of the housing. The squeezing head can squeeze or release the drip tube.

[0020] This utility model has at least one of the following beneficial effects: The embodiment of this utility model includes a housing with a cavity for installing a drip chamber and an infusion tube; one or more motor assemblies installed inside the housing, each including a motor and a compression head connected to the motor, the compression head being retractable and driven by the motor; a monitoring component located inside the housing for monitoring the dripping situation in the drip chamber; and a control board located inside the housing. The motor assembly, monitoring component, and control board are electrically connected. After installing the drip chamber and infusion tube in the housing, when there is only one infusion tube, during infusion, the electric... The squeezing head in the machine assembly can release the drip tube, allowing the liquid in the IV bottle to be infused normally through the drip tube and drip chamber. The monitoring component can monitor whether the liquid in the drip chamber is dripping normally. When abnormal dripping is detected (such as too fast or too slow), the control board will feed the information back to the computer software or APP used with the equipment. The computer software or APP will issue a prompt or alarm to remind the nurse at the nursing station. When no dripping is detected, the control board can drive the motor to move the squeezing head to press against the drip tube, which can prevent temporary blood backflow. At the same time, the computer software or APP will issue a prompt or alarm to remind the nurse at the nursing station. When there are multiple IV drip tubes, if a patient requires multiple IV infusions, the nurse can connect multiple IV bags to the IV drip tubes simultaneously (one IV bag to one IV bag). One IV bag can be infused normally without being fully squeezed by the squeezing head, while the other IV bags are fully squeezed by the squeezing head to prevent the corresponding IV bag from entering the drip chamber. When the monitoring component detects that an IV bag has finished infusion, the control board can control the motor component corresponding to that IV bag to operate, the squeezing head presses against the corresponding IV bag, and another motor component is activated to release the squeezing head from the IV bag, allowing the other IV bag to infuse normally. This process is repeated until all IV bags have finished infusion. During the infusion process, if abnormal dripping or infusion completion is detected in the drip chamber, prompts or alarms can also be issued through computer software or an APP. Therefore, the infusion monitoring equipment and device described in this utility model eliminate the need for patients and medical staff to constantly monitor the infusion status with their naked eyes. Patients do not need to call for medical staff themselves. In particular, when there are multiple drip tubes, medical staff do not need to operate back and forth to change the drip tubes. They only need to operate multiple drip tubes at once to complete the monitoring of the infusion and the automatic switching between multiple drip tubes. This greatly reduces the workload of medical staff, improves the accuracy and timeliness of infusion monitoring, and also allows patients to rest. The structure is simple and easy to implement.

Detailed Implementation

[0034] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described below can be arbitrarily combined with each other.

[0035] The following provides many different implementation methods or examples for realizing the structure of this utility model.

[0036] See Figures 1-11This utility model provides an infusion monitoring device, including a housing 1, which may be made of plastic and has a cavity for installing a drip chamber 2 and an infusion tube 3; a motor assembly 4, which may be one or more, in this embodiment there are four, installed inside the housing 1, the motor assembly 4 including a motor 41 and a squeezing head 42 connected to the motor 41, the squeezing head 42 being retractable and driven by the motor 41; and a monitoring component 5, disposed inside the housing 1, used to monitor the dripping status in the drip chamber 2, including whether dripping occurs, the dripping speed, or real-time video of the dripping, etc. The monitoring component 5 may be a camera component, which can capture whether dripping occurs or the dripping speed, and can also be designed to transmit the captured dripping images to computer software or an APP in real time for medical staff to view; the monitoring component 5 may also be a sensor component, such as an infrared sensor, to obtain information such as whether dripping occurs or the dripping speed in the drip chamber 2. The control board 6 is disposed inside the housing 1. The motor assembly 4 and the monitoring assembly 5 are electrically connected to the control board 6. The electrical connection can be a wired connection or a wireless connection. The control board 6 can be an integrated circuit board or it can be divided into multiple boards, such as a main board, a motor circuit board adapted to the motor assembly 4, and a monitoring circuit board adapted to the monitoring assembly 5.

[0037] The aforementioned infusion monitoring equipment requires the installation of a drip chamber 2 and an infusion tube 3 for use. The infusion monitoring equipment can be sold separately from the drip chamber 2 and infusion tube 3, or it can be sold as a set with the drip chamber 2 and infusion tube 3. Therefore, this utility model embodiment also provides an infusion monitoring device, including an infusion monitoring device, a drip chamber 2, and an infusion tube 3. The drip chamber 2 is detachably installed in the housing 1. The drip chamber 2 is made of transparent material. As a disposable medical device, the drip chamber 2 cannot be reused to avoid cross-infection or other potential risks. Detachably installing the drip chamber 2 in the housing 1 allows only the drip chamber 2 to be replaced, without replacing the housing or other components, reducing usage costs. The infusion tube 3 connects to the drip chamber 2. The infusion tube 3 and the drip chamber 2 can be integrally molded. There are one or more infusion tubes 3; in this embodiment, there are four. The infusion tubes 3 extend from the housing 1 and are used to connect to the IV drip bottle. Specifically, they can be connected via... Figure 1 The needle 31 shown is used to connect to the IV drip bottle; the squeezing head 42 can squeeze or release the drip tube 3, and the squeezing head 42 can press the drip tube 3 tightly so that the liquid in the drip tube 3 cannot pass through the pressed part; according to the program setting and needs, the motor 41 can control the degree to which the squeezing head 42 squeezes the drip tube 2, and the diameter of the drip tube 3 at the squeezing position is controlled by the degree of squeezing of the squeezing head 42, thereby controlling the dripping speed.

[0038] See details Figures 3-5 , Figures 8-9 as well as Figure 11 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, the housing 1 includes a main housing 11, a front cover 12 disposed in front of the main housing 11, and a rear housing 13 disposed behind the main housing 11. The front cover 12 is hinged to the main housing 11 and can be opened or closed. This structure modularizes the housing 1, facilitating the installation of components such as the motor assembly 4 and the monitoring assembly 5 inside the housing 1. At the same time, the front cover 12 can cover and limit the position of the drip tube 3, facilitating the fixation and limiting of the drip tube 3 within the housing 1.

[0039] In some embodiments of this utility model, the motor assembly 4 is disposed on the rear side of the main shell 11, and the main shell 11 is provided with a perforation 14. The extrusion head 42 can pass through the perforation 14 and extend to the front side of the main shell 11. Specifically, the drip tube 3 is disposed on the front side of the main shell 11, and the extrusion head 42 can pass through the perforation 14 to extrude the drip tube 3. This structure can make full use of the internal space of the shell 11, and the motor assembly 4 and the drip tube 3 are disposed on opposite sides, which is conducive to the replacement of the drip tube 3.

[0040] In some embodiments of this utility model, a flow regulating pulley 7 is provided on the front cover 12. The flow regulating pulley 7 is used to squeeze or release the drip tube 3. Adjusting the drip rate of the drip tube 3 by means of the flow regulating pulley 7 is more convenient and faster. In some embodiments of this utility model, a plurality of isolation grooves 15 are provided on the main shell 11. The isolation grooves 15 are used to install the drip tube 3, that is, the drip tube 3 is placed in the isolation groove 15. At least part of the groove wall of the isolation groove 15 is an inclined wall 151. The flow regulating pulley 7 is arranged opposite to the inclined wall 151. The squeezing or releasing of the drip tube 3 is achieved through the cooperation of the two. This structure makes the adjustment of the drip rate consistent with the existing infusion adjustment, thereby adapting to the usage habits of medical staff.

[0041] In some embodiments of this utility model, the main shell 11 or the front cover 12 is provided with a latching part 16, and the front cover 12 or the main shell 11 is provided with a cover switch 8 that cooperates with the latching part 16. The cover switch 8 is provided with a spring 81. When the front cover 12 is closed, the latching part 16 will push the cover switch 8 upward, so that the hook on the cover switch 8 automatically engages with the latching part 16, thus locking the front cover 8. When it is necessary to open the door, simply push the cover switch 8 so that the hook on the cover switch 8 disengages from the latching part 16, and the front cover 8 can be opened. For medical personnel, this structure makes it easy to lock the front cover, which also facilitates the quick replacement of the drip chamber 2 and the drip tube 3, improving the user experience.

[0042] In some embodiments of this utility model, a battery box is provided on the rear shell 13, which powers the infusion monitoring equipment through the battery, which is more convenient than connecting to the mains power supply.

[0043] In some embodiments of this utility model, the housing 1 is provided with a hook 9. The hook 9 facilitates the use of the infusion monitoring device by hooking it onto the drip bottle support.

[0044] The working principle of this utility model embodiment is as follows: When there is only one drip tube, during infusion, the squeezing head 42 in the motor assembly 4 can release the drip tube 3, and the liquid in the IV bottle is infused normally through the drip tube 3 and the drip chamber 2. The monitoring assembly 5 can monitor whether the liquid in the drip chamber 2 is dripping normally. When abnormal dripping is detected (such as too fast or too slow), the control board 6 will feed the information back to the computer software or APP used with the equipment. The computer software or APP will issue a prompt or alarm to remind the nurse at the nursing station. When no dripping is detected, the control board 6 can drive the motor 41 to move, causing the squeezing head 42 to press against the drip tube 3, which can prevent temporary blood backflow. At the same time, the computer software or APP will issue a prompt or alarm to remind the nurse at the nursing station.

[0045] When there are multiple IV drip tubes, if the patient needs multiple IV bags, the nurse can connect multiple IV bags to IV drip tube 2 simultaneously (one IV bag connected to one IV drip tube). One IV drip tube 3 is not fully squeezed by the squeezing head and can be used for normal infusion, while the other IV drip tubes 3 are fully squeezed by the squeezing head 42 to prevent the liquid from the corresponding IV bag from entering the IV drip tube. When the monitoring component 5 detects that an IV bag has finished infusion, the control board 6 can control the motor component 4 corresponding to that IV bag to operate. The squeezing head 42 presses against the corresponding IV drip tube 3 and starts another motor component 4 to operate, causing the squeezing head 42 to release the IV drip tube, allowing the other IV bag to be used for normal infusion. This process is repeated until all IV bags have been infused. During the infusion process, if the dripping in the IV drip chamber 2 is abnormal or the infusion is completed, a prompt or alarm can be issued through computer software or APP. The computer software or APP can be set to have a visual interface, allowing medical staff to observe the infusion status of multiple patients in real time. The visual interface can also be set to have control options, allowing medical staff to control the movement of the motor component 4 through the interface operation, thereby controlling whether to administer infusion and selecting specific IV bags for infusion, etc.

[0046] Therefore, the infusion monitoring equipment and device described in this utility model eliminate the need for patients and medical staff to constantly monitor the infusion status with their naked eyes. Patients do not need to call for medical staff themselves. In particular, when there are multiple drip tubes, medical staff do not need to operate back and forth to change the drip tubes. They only need to operate multiple drip tubes at once to complete the monitoring of the infusion and the automatic switching between multiple drip tubes. This greatly reduces the workload of medical staff, improves the accuracy and timeliness of infusion monitoring, and also allows patients to rest. The structure is simple and easy to implement.

[0047] The embodiments of the present utility model have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the present utility model.
