Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of test strip inserters, and more specifically, to a multi-test strip inserter with labeling and storage functions. Background Technology

[0002] Electrochemical-based blood glucose meters are now commonplace in households. The development of blood glucose meters has expanded from traditional single-function meters to multi-function devices based on electrochemical methods. Some of these multi-function devices, in order to meet the need for simultaneous testing of multiple parameters, often feature multiple test strip slots. For users, this results in shorter testing times and greater convenience.

[0003] However, the test strips must be matched one-to-one with the testing sockets before testing can begin, which greatly increases the possibility of user error. Furthermore, since multiple tests are performed simultaneously, users often need to prepare multiple test strip bottles when using the instrument. However, the test strips are stored separately from the instrument, which increases the possibility of forgetting their location and the strips getting damp, adding to the difficulty of device management. Additionally, the method of removing the test strips involves opening the bottle cap and manually removing them one by one. This method is not only cumbersome but also poses several risks. Because the test strips tend to stick together, multiple strips may be removed, leading to waste and contamination. Contact between the hands and the testing area of ​​the strip also increases the risk of contamination, thus affecting the accuracy of the blood glucose test. The user's task of installing the test strips also increases the testing time. Utility Model Content

[0015] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. The embodiments of the present invention are given for the purpose of illustration and description, and are not intended to be exhaustive or to limit the present invention to the disclosed forms. Many modifications and variations will be apparent to those skilled in the art. The embodiments were chosen and described to better illustrate the principles and practical applications of the present invention, and to enable those skilled in the art to understand the present invention and design various embodiments with various modifications suitable for a particular purpose.

[0016] like Figures 1-3 As shown, the present invention provides a multi-test strip inserter with labeling and storage functions, including a mounting bracket 1, a lifting adjustment component 15 disposed on the mounting bracket 1, a fixed bracket connected to the lifting adjustment component 15, a storage bottle 2 disposed on the fixed bracket, and an inlet component disposed on the storage bottle 2.

[0017] The fixing bracket includes several fixing rings 11, and the storage bottle 2 passes through the inside of the fixing rings 11. Adjacent fixing rings 11 are detachably connected. A test strip outlet 7 is horizontally provided through the storage bottle 2. The inlet component is provided through the test strip outlet 7 and is movably connected to the test strip bottle. The test strip is stacked inside the storage bottle 2.

[0018] In the above scheme, the mounting bracket 1 serves as the basic support structure. The height of the fixed bracket can be adjusted by the lifting adjustment component 15 (such as the handwheel 16 cooperating with the lifting rack 17) to adapt to different models of detectors. Several fixing rings 11 of the fixed bracket are detachably connected. The storage bottle 2 passes through the fixing rings 11 to be fixed. The inlet component passes through the test strip outlet 7 of the storage bottle 2. By manually pushing the inlet component, the test strips stacked in the storage bottle 2 are pushed out of the test strip outlet 7 one by one and inserted into the detector socket.

[0019] The storage bottle 2 has a storage slot 6 adapted to the size of the test strip, and the test strip outlet 7 is located at the bottom of the storage slot 6. The size of the storage slot 6 is precisely matched with the test strip, forming a limiting space. The test strips are stacked in the storage slot 6, and only a single test strip can pass through the bottom outlet. When the inlet component pushes, the bottommost test strip is pushed out from the outlet. The storage slot 6 prevents the test strips from stacking messily or sticking together in the storage bottle 2, ensuring that only a single test strip is pushed out each time, avoiding waste.

[0020] The import component includes an import insert 9, on which a limiting piece 10 is provided. The heights of the import insert 9, the test strip outlet 7, and the test strip are adapted to each other. The import insert 9 is inserted into the test strip outlet 7, and by pushing the import insert 9, its front end pushes the test strip out of the outlet. The limiting piece 10 is provided on the import insert 9 to limit the movement of the import insert 9, ensuring that the test strip is smoothly inserted into the socket.

[0021] The test strip outlet 7 is equipped with a magnet 8 that aligns with the test strip insertion hole of the detector. The magnet 8 is installed at the edge of the test strip outlet 7. When the inserter approaches the detector, the magnet 8 generates a magnetic attraction force with the metal component at the detector's insertion hole, automatically aligning with the insertion hole position. This reduces the difficulty of manual alignment for users, and especially when testing multiple items simultaneously, it effectively reduces the risk of misinsertion and improves testing efficiency.

[0022] The storage bottle 2 has a classification label 4 on its outer cap 3. The classification label 4 is used to mark the type of test strips inside the storage bottle 2 (such as blood glucose, uric acid, and other test items). Users can intuitively identify different test strips through the label. This solves the problem of test strip confusion when performing multiple tests, making it easier for users to quickly find and use the corresponding test strip, improving the convenience of equipment management, and avoiding test errors caused by using the wrong test strip.

[0023] The storage bottle 2 has a desiccant placement slot 5 inside the cap 3. A desiccant (such as silica gel) is placed in the desiccant placement slot 5, creating a dry environment between the sealed cap 3 and the inside of the storage bottle 2, absorbing moisture from the air. This effectively prevents the test strips from becoming damp and deteriorating, maintains stable detection performance, extends the storage life of the test strips, and ensures the accuracy of the test results.

[0024] A connecting plate 12 is provided on the side of the fixing ring 11, and an insertion plate 13 with an insertion slot is provided on another adjacent fixing ring 11. The connecting plate 12 is inserted into the slot on the insertion plate 13. Anti-slip protrusions 14 are evenly distributed on the upper surface of the connecting plate 12. Adjacent fixing rings 11 are connected by the insertion and engagement of the connecting plate 12 and the insertion slot. The anti-slip protrusions 14 on the connecting plate 12 increase the friction at the insertion point and prevent the fixing rings 11 from loosening and falling off during use. The detachable insertion structure allows for the addition or reduction of the number of fixing rings 11 according to actual needs, flexibly adjusting the installation quantity and position of the storage bottles 2. The anti-slip protrusions 14 ensure the structural stability of the fixing bracket and are suitable for equipment assembly requirements in different testing scenarios.

[0025] This solution features a mounting bracket and lifting adjustment assembly compatible with various testing instruments. The fixed bracket has a detachable retaining ring for flexible adjustment of the number of storage bottles. Storage slots inside the bottles prevent test strips from sticking together, desiccant compartments keep them dry, and categorized labels on the bottle caps prevent confusion. The feeding component, combined with a magnetic block, ensures accurate test strip delivery, reducing contamination and misinsertion. The overall structure solves problems such as cumbersome test strip handling, susceptibility to contamination and moisture, and difficult management, improving testing accuracy and efficiency, simplifying user operation, facilitating multi-functional testing, and reducing equipment management complexity.
