Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical device technology, specifically to an RFID smart tag for patient catheter care. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, clinical patient catheter care generally relies on paper labels. However, this traditional method has significant drawbacks: First, it is a static information carrier and cannot provide proactive, dynamic audible and visual warnings when special attention is needed (such as replacement or flushing). It relies entirely on the memory of medical staff, which can easily lead to risks due to negligence. Second, paper labels are easily contaminated and damaged in the humid and friction-prone medical environment, resulting in blurred writing or information loss, and poor reliability. Third, the recognition efficiency is low, requiring close-range identification in emergency situations, increasing the workload. Fourth, the methods of fixing and removing them (such as tape or simple clips) are cumbersome, prone to residue, difficult to adjust, and difficult to reuse. These limitations can hardly meet the modern medical needs for safe, efficient, and intelligent nursing care.

[0003] Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) products and technologies are a non-contact automatic identification technology based on the principle of radio frequency electromagnetic field coupling. It achieves contactless data reading and writing and target identification through radio signals. Originating from radar improvements in the 1940s, with Harry Stockman laying the theoretical foundation in 1948, this technology underwent laboratory exploration and commercial trials before reaching mature application in the 1990s. RFID electronic tags are currently widely used, including in the medical device field. Australian patent "Electronic Tag for Association and Identification of Intravenous Drug Delivery Lines" (AU2021325959) discloses an electronic tag including a housing; a processor within the housing; a transceiver disposed within the housing and coupled to the processor; the transceiver is an RFID transceiver. A display is coupled to the housing and the processor and configured to display information received via the transceiver; a clamping mechanism is coupled to the housing and configured to secure the electronic tag to an intravenous (IV) tube; and a sensor is disposed within the housing and configured to measure fluid characteristics in the IV tube at the location of the clamping mechanism. Chinese patent "A Visual Radio Frequency Electronic Tag and Intelligent Bed Tag System" (CN201821987021.7) discloses a visual radio frequency electronic tag, which includes: a central processing unit, a temperature and humidity sensor, an radio frequency module, and a display module. The temperature and humidity sensor, radio frequency module, and display module are all connected to the central processing unit. The temperature and humidity sensor monitors the temperature and humidity data in the environment and sends the data to the central processing unit. The radio frequency module establishes a communication connection with a server. The display module displays the information sent by the central processing unit. The central processing unit communicates with the server, receives bed tag display information from the server, processes the bed tag display information, and controls the display module to display it. This utility model also discloses an intelligent bed tag system. The visual radio frequency electronic tag provided by this utility model can save a significant amount of manpower and has a low error rate, greatly reducing the occurrence of medical accidents and helping hospitals save a lot of labor costs. However, existing electronic tags have complex structures and lack a relevant electronic tag structure for patient catheter care.

[0004] No effective solutions have yet been proposed to address the problems in the relevant technologies. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of the problems in related technologies, this utility model proposes an RFID smart tag for patient catheter care to overcome the above-mentioned technical problems existing in the existing related technologies.

[0006] Therefore, the specific technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0007] An RFID smart tag for patient tubing care includes an RFID transceiver and a processor, and a connecting sleeve fixedly connected to the upper part of the outer wall of the patient tubing. A docking seat is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the connecting sleeve, and an electronic tag screen is movably mounted on the surface of the docking seat. The electronic tag screen displays information received by the RFID transceiver and processed by the processor. A docking block is fixedly connected to the side of the electronic tag screen. A docking slot is provided on the front of the docking seat, and a guide groove is provided on the inner side wall of the docking seat. Limiting blocks are fixedly connected to both sides of the docking block, and the size of the limiting blocks matches the guide groove.

[0008] Preferably, the guide groove is provided with multiple sets of micro-ball structures, and the multiple sets of micro-ball structures are evenly distributed vertically in the guide groove. Through the guide groove and the micro-ball structures, the friction of the mating blocks during the insertion and removal process is greatly reduced, which has the advantages of smooth operation, labor saving, effective reduction of wear, and improved ease of disassembly and assembly and service life of components.

[0009] Preferably, the bottom of the docking slot is provided with a fixing hole, the bottom of the docking block is fixedly connected with a fixing post, the inner wall of the fixing hole is fixedly connected with a rubber anti-slip sleeve, and the bottom of the fixing hole and the bottom of the fixing post are both fixedly connected with magnetic pads. The fixing hole, fixing post and magnetic pads constitute a dual locking mechanism that combines mechanical insertion and magnetic adsorption. This makes the electronic signage screen have an exceptionally stable connection and strong resistance to accidental pulling after installation, effectively preventing loosening during maintenance operations. At the same time, the magnetic release makes the disassembly process simple and straightforward.

[0010] Preferably, anti-slip pads are attached to the top and bottom edges of the electronic signage screen. The surface of the anti-slip pads is provided with a grid-like anti-slip texture. The grid-like anti-slip texture on the surface of the anti-slip pads at the top and bottom edges of the electronic signage screen provides medical staff with the benefits of anti-slip and enhanced grip when picking up and operating the device, thereby improving hand stability and operational accuracy.

[0011] Preferably, a miniature LED bead is fixedly installed at the top edge of the docking seat. There are two sets of miniature LED beads, symmetrically arranged on the top of the docking seat. The light emitted by these miniature LED beads provides localized illumination for the docking process, enabling the device to clearly illuminate the docking slot and docking block even in poorly lit clinical environments. This assists medical personnel in achieving rapid and accurate alignment and insertion, significantly improving installation efficiency and reliability.

[0012] Preferably, a dustproof film is adhered to the surface of the electronic signage screen. The dustproof film is made of tempered glass. By adhering the tempered glass dustproof film to the surface of the electronic signage screen, the screen has the advantages of high hardness, scratch resistance, fingerprint and oil stain resistance, and impact resistance, effectively protecting the display interface and adapting to the frequent cleaning and disinfection needs in the medical environment.

[0013] Preferably, a protective cover plate is hinged to the top of the docking seat. The shape and size of the protective cover plate are matched and fitted to the docking slot. The protective cover plate is made of plastic. A protrusion is fixedly connected to the center of the back of the protective cover plate. The protective cover plate, which is hinged to the docking seat, provides effective dust and liquid splash protection to the docking slot when it is not in use, maintains the safety of the internal docking structure, and improves the overall environmental adaptability.

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

[0015] 1. By completely replacing traditional paper signs with electronic signage screens, dynamic and intelligent management of patient pipeline care information is achieved. The active flashing lights provide proactive and strong warnings for special pipelines that need to be replaced or require special attention, fundamentally overcoming the inherent defects of paper signs, such as easy contamination, blurred handwriting, and reliance on manual identification.

[0016] 2. The smooth insertion and precise guidance of the electronic labeling screen are achieved through the cooperation of the docking block and the guide groove with a micro-ball bearing structure, greatly improving the ease of assembly and disassembly. The dual locking mechanism consisting of the fixing post and the magnetic pad ensures a secure and reliable connection between the electronic labeling screen and the docking seat during frequent clinical operations, effectively preventing accidental loosening. Furthermore, the localized illumination provided by the micro-LED beads and the increased grip friction from the anti-slip pads jointly assist in rapid and accurate operation, achieving an excellent balance between efficiency and reliability.

Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0025] According to an embodiment of the present invention, an RFID smart tag for patient catheter care is provided.

[0026] Example 1;

[0027] like Figure 1-5 As shown, the RFID smart identification strip for patient tube care according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a tube body 1, a connecting sleeve 2 fixedly connected to the upper part of the outer wall of the tube body 1, a docking seat 3 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the connecting sleeve 2, an electronic identification screen 4 movably mounted on the surface of the docking seat 3, a docking plug 5 fixedly connected to the side of the electronic identification screen 4, a docking slot is provided on the front of the docking seat 3, a guide groove 7 is provided on the inner side wall of the docking seat 3, and limit blocks 6 are fixedly connected to both sides of the docking plug 5, the size of the limit blocks 6 matching the guide groove 7.

[0028] In this embodiment, the guide groove 7 is provided with multiple sets of micro ball structures 8, and the multiple sets of micro ball structures 8 are evenly distributed in the guide groove 7 in a vertical direction. Through the guide groove 7 and the micro ball structures 8, the friction of the mating plug 5 during the insertion and removal process is greatly reduced, which has the advantages of smooth operation, labor saving, effective reduction of wear, and improved ease of disassembly and assembly and service life of components.

[0029] In this embodiment, a fixing hole 10 is provided at the bottom of the docking slot, a fixing post 11 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the docking block 5, a rubber anti-slip sleeve is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the fixing hole 10, and magnetic pads 12 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the fixing hole 10 and the bottom of the fixing post 11. The fixing hole 10, the fixing post 11 and the magnetic pads 12 constitute a dual locking mechanism that combines mechanical insertion and magnetic adsorption. This makes the electronic identification screen 4 have an exceptionally stable connection and strong resistance to accidental pulling after installation, which can effectively prevent loosening during nursing operations. At the same time, the magnetic release also makes the disassembly process simple and straightforward.

[0030] In this embodiment, anti-slip pads 14 are attached to the top and bottom edges of the electronic signage screen 4. The surface of the anti-slip pads 14 is provided with a grid-like anti-slip texture. The grid-like anti-slip texture on the surface of the anti-slip pads 14 provided by the anti-slip pads 14 at the top and bottom edges of the electronic signage screen 4 provides medical staff with the benefits of anti-slip and increased grip when picking up and operating the device, thereby improving hand stability and operational accuracy.

[0031] In this embodiment, a miniature LED bead 9 is fixedly installed at the top edge of the docking seat 3. There are two sets of miniature LED beads 9, which are symmetrically arranged on the top of the docking seat 3. The light emitted by the miniature LED beads 9 on the top of the docking seat 3 can provide local illumination for the docking process, enabling the device to clearly illuminate the docking slot and docking plug 5 even in clinical environments with poor lighting conditions. This helps medical personnel to achieve quick and accurate alignment and insertion, significantly improving the efficiency and reliability of installation.

[0032] In this embodiment, a dustproof film 15 is attached to the surface of the electronic signage screen 4. The dustproof film 15 is made of tempered glass. By attaching the tempered glass dustproof film 15 to the surface of the electronic signage screen 4, the screen has the advantages of high hardness, scratch resistance, fingerprint and oil stain resistance and impact resistance, effectively protecting the display interface and adapting to the frequent cleaning and disinfection needs in the medical environment.

[0033] In this embodiment, a protective cover plate 13 is hinged to the top of the docking seat 3. The shape and size of the protective cover plate 13 are matched and fit the docking slot. The protective cover plate 13 is made of plastic. A protrusion is fixedly connected to the center of the back of the protective cover plate 13. The protective cover plate 13, which is hinged to the docking seat 3, provides effective dust and liquid splash protection to the docking slot when it is not in use, maintains the safety of the internal docking structure, and improves the overall environmental adaptability.

[0034] In this embodiment, the electronic identification screen 4 integrates an RFID transceiver, a processor, and a power supply. The electronic identification screen 4 displays information received by the RFID transceiver and processed by the processor, including pipe type, insertion date, insertion person, maintenance date, etc. This utility model's RFID smart identification tape for patient pipe care is used in conjunction with an external mobile terminal, connecting to an RFID network for information reading and writing.

[0035] To facilitate understanding of the above-mentioned technical solutions of this utility model, the working principle or operation method of this utility model in actual process will be described in detail below.

[0036] In practical applications, when installing the electronic signage screen 4, the protective cover 13 hinged to the top of the docking seat 3 is opened. At this time, the miniature LED beads 9 on the docking seat 3 will automatically light up, providing illumination for operation in dim environments. The operator holds the anti-slip pads 14 on both sides of the electronic signage screen 4, aligns the limiting blocks 6 on both sides of the docking plug 5 with the guide grooves 7 on the docking seat 3, and smoothly inserts the docking plug 5 into the bottom of the docking slot with the help of the miniature ball bearing structure 8 in the groove. During this process, the fixing post 11 is immediately embedded into the fixing hole 10 and is locked to each other by the magnetic suction pads 12 at the bottom, thus completing a quick and stable installation. Subsequently, the electronic signage screen 4 can start working, providing intelligent reminders through display, sound, or flashing. When it needs to be replaced or disinfected, the electronic signage screen 4 can be pulled upwards with a little force to overcome the magnetic attraction and separate, making the operation extremely simple.

[0037] In summary, by utilizing the aforementioned technical solution of this utility model, the electronic identification screen 4 completely replaces traditional paper labels, achieving dynamic and intelligent management of patient catheter care information. Active flashing lights provide proactive and strong warnings for special catheters requiring replacement or close monitoring, fundamentally overcoming the inherent defects of paper labels such as easy contamination, blurred text, and reliance on manual identification. The smooth insertion and precise guidance of the electronic identification screen 4 through the cooperation of the docking block 5 and the guide groove 7 with a micro-ball bearing structure 8 greatly improves the ease of assembly and disassembly. The dual locking mechanism formed by the fixing post 11 and the magnetic pad 12 ensures a secure and reliable connection between the electronic identification screen 4 and the docking seat 3 during frequent clinical operations, effectively preventing accidental loosening. Furthermore, the localized lighting provided by the micro-light beads 9 and the increased grip friction from the anti-slip pad 14 jointly assist in rapid and accurate operation, achieving an excellent balance between efficiency and reliability.

[0038] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model shall be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
