Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of protective boxes, and in particular to a honeycomb insulin needle removal and anti-puncture protective box. Background Technology

[0002] Insulin needles are the core tool used for subcutaneous insulin injection in diabetes treatment. Insulin is injected into the fat layer through subcutaneous injection to achieve slow drug release, regulate blood sugar levels, and control the injection dosage. After use, they must be placed in a special sharps container and sealed for disposal to prevent environmental pollution and the risk of puncture wounds.

[0003] When used clinically, the injection dosage must be strictly controlled to ensure slow drug release and maintain stable blood glucose management. After each injection, a new needle must be used and disposed of in a dedicated sharps container to avoid subcutaneous fat hyperplasia or induration caused by reuse, while also reducing environmental pollution and the risk of needlestick injuries. However, some patients or medical staff still habitually re-loop the needle with one hand, which can cause the needle tip to pierce the needle cap or prick the finger.

[0004] Therefore, given that most patients or medical staff still habitually re-wrap the insulin needle with one hand, resulting in the needle tip piercing the needle cap or injuring the finger, a honeycomb-shaped insulin needle removal and anti-puncture protection box can be designed. Utility Model Content

[0005] To overcome the problem that most patients or medical staff still habitually use one hand to re-loop the needle, resulting in the needle tip piercing the needle cap or injuring the finger.

[0006] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows: a honeycomb insulin needle removal anti-puncture protection box, including a honeycomb box, a positioning cover plate and a needle cap box; the honeycomb box is used to distribute and store several sets of needle caps, and the positioning cover plate is fastened on the honeycomb box to prevent punctures and facilitate the removal and installation of self-positioning insulin needles. Several sets of needle cap boxes are fixedly connected to the outer end of the honeycomb box. The honeycomb box has a honeycomb space for placing multiple sets of insulin needle removal operations. Several sets of insertion holes are distributed inside the honeycomb space. The bottom of the insertion hole is provided with a stepped platform. A honeycomb hole is opened at the center of the bottom of the stepped platform. Several sets of insertion positioning sleeves are fixedly connected to the stepped platform along the honeycomb hole.

[0007] Preferably, the honeycomb space and insertion hole design inside the honeycomb box can achieve orderly positioning when removing the needle, avoiding needle tip deviation and puncture of the needle cap or accidental finger injury when re-sleeving with one hand. The self-positioning compression ball of the positioning cover plate, combined with the spring damper, can provide stable guidance and buffer when the needle is inserted, reducing the risk of operational errors. The storage slot of the needle cap box and the anti-corrosion strip work together to facilitate the classification and storage of needle caps and their single use.

[0008] Preferably, a needle ball groove is provided at the bottom center of the honeycomb hole, a slot is provided at the center of the insertion positioning sleeve, a center block is fixedly connected to the center of the honeycomb space, a positioning block is fixedly connected to the center of the center block, a center sleeve is fixedly connected to the center of the positioning block, several sets of connecting sleeves are fixedly connected circumferentially near the edge of the honeycomb space, a waterproof rubber sleeve is attached to the inner edge of the honeycomb box, and an anti-slip sleeve is attached to the step platform along the edge of the honeycomb hole.

[0009] Preferably, a connecting sleeve is fixedly connected to the center of the central block, and pressure plates are fixedly connected to the bottom of the honeycomb box. Positioning brackets are symmetrically fixed to the bottom of the pressure plates.

[0010] Preferably, the positioning cover plate has multiple sets of perforations for inserting insulin needles, and multiple sets of self-positioning compression balls are circumferentially fixed to the inner side of the perforations. The self-positioning compression balls are equipped with springs and spring dampers inside.

[0011] Preferably, a central post is fixedly connected to the bottom center of the positioning cover, and several sets of connecting posts are fixedly connected circumferentially near the bottom edge of the positioning cover. A flexible memory strip is fitted to the edge of the perforation.

[0012] Preferably, a handle is fixedly connected to the center of the positioning cover, a stop block is fixedly connected to the top of the handle, and several sets of wear-resistant strips are fixedly connected to the outer end of the handle in a circumferential manner.

[0013] Preferably, the needle cap box has a storage slot in the center for storing needle caps, and an anti-corrosion strip is attached to the edge of the storage slot on the upper part of the needle cap box.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0015] 1. Unlike previous methods where patients or medical staff habitually re-sleeve the needle with one hand, leading to needle tip piercing the needle cap or injuring fingers, this new design utilizes the honeycomb space and insertion holes within the honeycomb box to achieve orderly positioning during needle removal. This prevents needle tip misalignment and piercing of the needle cap or accidental finger injury during single-handed re-sleeve. The self-positioning compression ball of the positioning cover, combined with a spring damper, provides stable guidance and cushioning during needle insertion, reducing the risk of operational errors. The storage slot and anti-corrosion strip in the needle cap box facilitate the categorized storage and single-use of needle caps. The stepped separation design of the stepped platform and insertion positioning sleeve ensures that the needle falls directly into the bottom of the honeycomb holes after removal and is sealed for storage. The flexible memory strip and perforation layout of the positioning cover support quick alignment and insertion, reducing the operational complexity for medical staff and improving the overall usability.

[0022] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0023] Please see Figures 1-5 This utility model provides an embodiment: a honeycomb insulin needle removal anti-puncture protection box, including a honeycomb box 1, a positioning cover plate 2, and a needle cap box 3; the honeycomb box 1 is used to distribute and store several sets of needle caps, and the positioning cover plate 2 is fastened on the honeycomb box 1 to prevent punctures and facilitate the removal and installation of self-positioning insulin needles. Several sets of needle cap boxes 3 for storing needle caps are fixedly connected to the outer end of the honeycomb box 1. The honeycomb box 1 has a honeycomb space 101 for placing multiple sets of insulin needle removal operations. Several sets of insertion holes are distributed inside the honeycomb space 101. The bottom of the insertion hole is provided with a stepped platform 107. A honeycomb hole 108 is opened at the center of the bottom of the stepped platform 107. Several sets of insertion positioning sleeves 110 are fixedly connected to the stepped platform 107 along the honeycomb hole 108.

[0024] Please see Figures 2-3In this embodiment, a needle ball groove 109 is provided at the bottom center of the honeycomb hole 108, a slot 111 is provided at the center of the insertion positioning sleeve 110, a center block 103 is fixedly connected to the center of the honeycomb space 101, a positioning block 104 is fixedly connected to the center of the center block 103, a center sleeve 105 is fixedly connected to the center of the positioning block 104, a number of connecting sleeves 106 are fixedly connected circumferentially near the edge of the honeycomb space 101, a waterproof sleeve 102 is attached to the inner edge of the honeycomb box 1, an anti-slip sleeve 112 is attached to the step platform 107 along the edge of the honeycomb hole 108, and a connecting sleeve 105 is fixedly connected to the center of the center block 103. 06. A pressure plate 113 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the honeycomb box 1. A positioning support 114 is symmetrically fixed to the bottom of the pressure plate 113. The circumferential distribution of the central block 103 and the connecting sleeve 106 forms a radial support frame. Combined with the pressure plate 113 and the symmetrical positioning support 114, the honeycomb box 1 is ensured to resist external pressure and vibration during operation, and to avoid tipping, which could cause the needles to scatter or shift in position. The compact layout of the connecting sleeve 106 and the central block 103 in the honeycomb space 101, together with the stepped guide channel of the needle ball groove 109, achieves efficient use of space when removing multiple needles simultaneously, and reduces the complexity of the operation steps.

[0025] Please see Figures 2-3 In this embodiment, the positioning cover plate 2 has multiple sets of perforations 208 for inserting insulin needles. Multiple sets of self-positioning compression balls 205 are circumferentially fixed to the inner side of the perforations 208 on the positioning cover plate 2. Each self-positioning compression ball 205 has a spring and a spring damper inside. A central post 206 is fixed to the center of the bottom of the positioning cover plate 2. Several sets of connecting posts 207 are circumferentially fixed to the bottom of the positioning cover plate 2 near its edge. A flexible memory strip 202 is attached to the edge of the perforations 208. It can adapt to the needle diameter, fit the needle body to avoid shaking, and combined with the circumferentially distributed self-positioning squeeze balls 205 (with built-in spring dampers), it provides elastic clamping force and buffer guidance when the needle is inserted, ensuring that the needle is vertically aligned with the insertion hole, preventing the needle tip from deviating and piercing the needle cap or accidentally injuring the finger. The spring damping system of the self-positioning squeeze balls 205 can adjust the needle insertion resistance and reduce the error of operation force. The deformation recovery characteristics of the flexible memory strip 202 support the positioning accuracy during repeated use and reduce the risk of component wear or positioning failure caused by repeated operation.

[0026] Please see Figures 3-5In this embodiment, a handle 201 is fixedly connected to the center of the positioning cover plate 2, and a stop block 203 is fixedly connected to the top of the handle 201. Several sets of wear-resistant strips 204 are fixedly connected to the outer end of the handle 201 in a circumferential manner. A storage slot 301 for storing and placing needle caps is opened in the center of the needle cap box 3. An anti-corrosion strip 302 is attached to the edge of the storage slot 301 on the needle cap box 3. The handle 201 fixedly connected to the center of the positioning cover plate 2, together with the top stop block 203, can limit the downward pressure and provide a stable grip support.

[0027] During operation, depending on the disassembly and assembly requirements, the positioning cover plate 2 is disassembled and stationary using handle 201. A needle cap is inserted into the honeycomb hole 108, and the insulin needle is inserted into the perforation 208 of the positioning cover plate 2. The self-positioning compression ball 205 provides radial elastic pressure through an internal spring damper, combined with the deformation recovery characteristics of the flexible memory strip 202, guiding the needle to accurately align with the insertion hole and preventing needle tip deviation. After the needle is inserted into the honeycomb hole 108, its tail engages in the slot 111 of the insertion positioning sleeve 110. The needle is then separated from the needle cap by rotation or pressing. The stepped structure design of the stepped platform 107 forces the separated needle to fall along the honeycomb hole 108 into the bottom needle ball groove 109, and is locked by the slot 111 to prevent the needle from retracting or making secondary contact. The disassembled needle caps are stored separately in the storage slot 301 of the needle cap box 3, and the anti-corrosion strip 302 inhibits microbial growth.

[0028] Through the above steps, the honeycomb space 101 inside the honeycomb box 1 and the design of the insertion hole can achieve orderly positioning when removing the needle, avoiding needle tip deviation and piercing of the needle cap or accidental injury to the finger when re-sleeving with one hand. The self-positioning compression ball 205 of the positioning cover plate 2, combined with the spring damper, can provide stable guidance and buffer when the needle is inserted, reducing the risk of operational errors.
