Syringe Pump Door Sliding Control for Display Screen
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current syringe pumps with display screens require manual clicks and operations for control, reducing efficiency and preventing simultaneous observation of screen information and syringe details during infusion processes.
Innovation Solution
A screen control method and apparatus that allows users to control the display screen of a syringe pump by sliding the pump door, correlating different sliding operations with specific screen control instructions to automate screen management, enabling simultaneous viewing of screen information and syringe details.

Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If manual clicks and operations are required to control the display screen, then the screen can be controlled, but the control efficiency decreases and the user cannot simultaneously observe screen information and syringe details
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges the pump door sliding function with screen control functions. When the user slides the pump door, the system simultaneously performs screen control operations (such as opening/closing the screen, switching display modes) while the door is moving. This combines two actions into one, eliminating the need for separate manual screen operations and allowing users to monitor both screen information and syringe details efficiently.
Solution Approach 2:
The system automatically determines and executes screen control instructions based on the detected sliding operation of the pump door. The control unit self-activates to interpret the sliding gesture and autonomously performs the corresponding screen control action without requiring additional user input or manual screen interaction, thereby improving operational efficiency.
2Productivity
If the pump door is slid to control the screen, then control efficiency is improved, but the system complexity increases due to gesture recognition requirements
Solution Approach 1:
The pump door serves multiple functions: it is both the mechanical component for accessing the syringe (by sliding to open/close the pump chamber) and the input device for screen control. The same physical sliding motion that performs the primary function of opening the pump door is also utilized to trigger screen control operations, making the system multi-functional without adding separate control mechanisms.
Solution Approach 2:
The control unit acts as an intermediary that receives signals from the sliding operation sensor and translates them into appropriate screen control instructions. This mediator component simplifies the overall system architecture by centralizing the interpretation of sliding gestures and mapping them to predefined screen control actions, avoiding the need for complex real-time gesture recognition algorithms.

AI summary
A screen control method is provided for a syringe pump, along with a corresponding apparatus, device and storage medium. The syringe pump includes a pump door and a pump body, and the pump door is provided with a display screen. The pump body is configured to receive a syringe, and the pump door is slidably connected to the pump body. The method is applied to the pump door and includes determining, according to a sliding operation performed by a user on the pump door, a screen control instruction corresponding to the sliding operation, where the sliding operation is configured to indicate sliding of the pump door; and controlling the display screen according to the screen control instruction.
