Description:
FIELD OF THE INVENTION 
       [0001]    The present invention belongs to the field of medical apparatus technology, and particularly relates to a disposable automatic blood lancet. This blood lancet can be used simply after just twisting off the protective bar; and it can be placed into a self-locking state after ejection by locking the button through the casing engaged with the button, thus attaining the purpose of making the blood lancet unreusable. 
       BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 
       [0002]    The disposable automatic blood lancet, as the main development stream of the current blood lancet, has been improved and developed constantly for many years. The Chinese patent once announced on Tune  22 ,  2005  to authorize a utility model patent titled “Casing Self-Locking Disposable Safe Automatic Blood Lancet” with a patent number of 200420026368.7 and an announcement number of CN2705119Y (with this patent enjoying the right of priority, an American patent is applied for afterwards with a patent number of U.S. Pat. No. 7,322,997B2). In this patent, a casing forms an ejection cavity with a pinhole, a lancet core is arranged inside the ejection cavity, and an ejection structure is formed including a spring and a bayonet ejection structure. A button is arranged on the casing; and a self-locking structure is formed by a barb on the button engaged with a self-locking opening on the casing. When the button is pushed, the bayonet ejection structure will be triggered to make the lancet core disengaged from the casing, and then the spring will push the lancet core to eject. After the ejection, because of the movement of the button, the barb moves forward beyond the self-locking opening; therefore, the barb is locked at the self-locking opening in the rebounding process, and cannot go back to the pre-ejection state, making the bayonet ejection structure fail and unreusable. This design is compact in structure and skillful in concept, and particularly it can make the blood lancet enter the self-locking state after ejection by locking the button through the casing engaged with the button, thus attaining the purpose of making the blood lancet unreusable. However, it can be seen from specification or drawings of this patent that the following two operation actions have to be done before using this blood lancet: First the protective bar has to be pushed to make the lancet core compress the spring and blocked at the bayonet ejection structure; and then the protective bar has to be twisted off to make the lancet core enter the ejection state. Considering facilitating application by the medical care personnel, the fewer the operation actions the better. As for this patented product, the protective bar can be assembled into a post-push state during assembly in the manufacturing companies so as to reduce number of the operation actions. However, this will then result in a hidden trouble with the blood lancet, since even if the protective bar is not twisted off, the bayonet ejection structure may be triggered through the button during transportation and before application. This is also the first problem with this patented product. The second problem is that when the medical care personnel use this blood lancet for the first time, they may not read the operation instruction in detail, and may twist off the protective bar during application without pushing the protective bar first, which will also make the blood lancet fail to be ejected due to the blood lancet not being blocked into the bayonet ejection structure. Therefore, the purpose of the present invention is to resolve these problems. 
       Contents of the Invention 
       [0003]    The present invention provides a safe simple disposable automatic blood lancet, so as to resolve the following two problems with the patented product as described above: The first problem is that the patented product is not so simple due to requiring too many operation actions; and the second problem is that the patented product is inclined to be operated incorrectly. To make this patented product more advanced in technology and simpler in operation is the purpose of the present invention. 
         [0004]    In order to attain the above purpose, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: A safe simple disposable automatic blood lancet is provided, including a casing, a lancet core and a spring; 
         [0005]    the casing forms an ejection cavity, which is provided at one end with a pinhole; a lancet core is arranged inside the ejection cavity, and provided at one end with a protective bar, one end of which is protruded out of the pinhole of the casing; the lancet core is provided inside with a needle, a needle point of which is located inside the protective bar and oriented towards the pinhole; the protective bar and the lancet core are connected by muff-coupling or via a neck that can be twisted broken to enable a demountable connection; and the spring is arranged at the other end of the lancet core, thus forming an ejection structure with which the spring can push the lancet core to move; 
         [0006]    the casing extends into the ejection cavity to form a flexible arm used for locking the lancet core; and the lancet core is provided with a bayonet corresponding to this flexible arm, which is engaged at the end with the bayonet, thus forming a locking structure in a ready-for-ejection state that will appear after the lancet core compresses the spring; 
         [0007]    the casing is provided with a trigger button, which is formed by an extension on the casing or an independent member mounted on the casing; and the trigger button is provided with a push arm, which transversely passes through the ejection cavity to get close to or in touch with the end of the flexible arm, thus forming a push-type trigger structure; and 
         [0008]    the trigger button is provided on the push arm with a barb; the casing is provided with a self-locking barb corresponding to the barb, which is located in downward path of the barb; and a self-locking structure can be formed by the barb engaged with the self-locking barb after the trigger button is pushed once. 
         [0009]    This blood lancet is innovative in the following aspects: The ejection cavity is provided inside with a space that allows the push arm to move downwards, the Z direction of the space being defined as a direction along which the push arm moves downwards and the X direction parallel to axis of the needle; the protective bar is provided at the end inside the ejection cavity with a safety action portion; with the protective bar assembled, this safety action portion occupies the space in the X, Y or Z direction, or simultaneously in arbitrary two of the X, Y and Z directions, and prevents the push arm from moving downwards to drive the barb to be self-locked with the self-locking barb; with the protective bar disassembled, this safety action portion withdraws from the space and allows the push arm to move downwards to drive the barb to be self-locked with the self-locking barb; and thus a safety structure of the trigger button is formed. 
         [0010]    The relevant contents of the above technical solution will be explained as below: 
         [0011]    1. In the above solution, in order to describe direction of the “space” clearly, the Z direction is defined as a direction along which the push arm moves downwards and the X direction parallel to axis of the needle, and the Y direction of the “space” thus obtained is perpendicular to the X and Z directions. This will be understood with reference to the coordinate directions as shown in  FIGS. 2 ,  12 ,  15 ,  16 ,  21  and  22  in the examples. 
         [0012]    2. In the above solution, the “space” can be understood with reference to the area circled by the double dotted line as indicated by the reference number  17  in  FIGS. 2 ,  15  and  21  in the examples. 
         [0013]    The present invention has the following design concept and operational principle: The present invention, based on the structural design of the Chinese patent CN2705119Y or the U.S. Pat. No. 7,322,997B2, is provided additionally with a safety action portion structure at the end of the original protective bar; with the protective bar assembled, the space inside the ejection cavity in which the push arm can be pushed to move downwards is occupied by the safety action portion to prevent the push arm from moving downwards; with the protective bar disassembled, this safety action portion withdraws from the space, allowing the push arm to move downwards. The present invention can assemble the lancet core of the blood lancet into the ready-for-ejection state for reducing number of the operation actions, while in this state the blood lancet is inclined to be ejected incorrectly to cause the blood lancet failure; with this measure, however, the incorrect ejection can be prevented so as to realize the safety protection function, thus attaining the dual purposes of simplifying operation and preventing incorrect operation. 
         [0014]    With the technical solutions as described above, the present invention has the following advantages and effects compared with the prior art: 
         [0015]    1. Compared with the prior art, the present invention can make the blood lancet enter the ejection state just by twisting off the protective bar. However, the following two operation actions are needed for the products described in the Chinese patent CN2705119Y or the U.S. Pat. No. 7,322,997B2: First the protective bar has to be pushed to make the lancet core compress the spring and blocked at the flexible arm; and then the protective bar has to be twisted off to make the lancet core enter the ejection state. Obviously, the present invention is simpler in operation. 
         [0016]    2. The present invention allows the lancet core to be assembled into the locking state of ready for ejection during manufacture of the blood lancet. In this state, since the protective bar is not disassembled, and the safety action portion at its end places the trigger button in a safety protection state, there will be no incorrect ejection problem. 
         [0017]    3. The blood lancet of the present invention can make the trigger button enter the self-locking state after usage, and thus cannot be reused. Besides, the needle point withdraws back into the casing automatically after usage and will not be exposed to the outside, guaranteeing safety of the blood lancet. 
         [0018]    In summary, the present invention develops advantages of the Chinese patent CN2705119Y or the U.S. Pat. No. 7,322,997B2, and overcomes their shortcomings, making this improved product fully attain the purpose of more advanced technology, simpler operation, and safer application.

       DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS 
       [0044]    The present invention will further be described below with reference to drawings and embodiments. 
       Example 1 
     A Safe Simple Disposable Automatic Blood Lancet 
       [0045]    As shown in  FIGS. 1-3 , this blood lancet is composed of a casing  1 , a lancet core  2 , a spring  3  and a protective bar  4 . The casing  1  is divided into two parts top and bottom, both of which are connected to form an integral structure through pin and hole structures provided on the contact surface. The casing  1  forms an ejection cavity  5 , which is provided at one end with a pinhole  6 . The lancet core  2  is arranged inside the ejection cavity  5  and provided at one end with a protective bar  4 , one end of which is protruded out of the pinhole  6  of the casing  1 . The lancet core  2  is provided inside with a needle  14 , a needle point  7  of which is located inside the protective bar  4  and oriented towards the pinhole  6 . The protective bar  4  and the lancet core  2  are connected by muff-coupling or via a neck  18  that can be twisted broken to enable a demountable connection. The spring  3  is arranged at the other end of the lancet core  2 , thus forming an ejection structure with which the spring  3  can push the lancet core  2  to move. 
         [0046]    The casing  1  extends at the lower part into the ejection cavity  5  to form a flexible arm  8  used for locking the lancet core  2 . The flexible arm  8  is slantly arranged towards inside of the ejection cavity  5 . The lancet core  2  is provided at the lower part with a bayonet  9  corresponding to this flexible arm  8 , which is engaged at the end with the bayonet  9 , thus forming a locking structure in a ready-for-ejection state that will appear after the lancet core  2  compresses the spring  3 . 
         [0047]    The casing  1  is provided at the upper part with a trigger button  10 , which is formed by an extension on the casing  1  or an independent member mounted on the casing  1 . The trigger button  10  is provided with a push arm  11 . The push arm  11  is a “U-shaped” branch structure (see  FIG. 2 ), whose two arms get close to or in touch with the end of the flexible arm  8  transversely through the ejection cavity  5  from both sides of the lancet core  2 , respectively, thus forming a push-type trigger structure. 
         [0048]    The two arms of the “U-shaped” branch structure of the push arm  11  are provided on the side towards the casing  1  with a barb  12 , respectively. The casing  1  is provided on the side corresponding to each of the barbs  12  with one self-locking barb  13 , respectively, which is located in downward path of the barb  12  (see  FIG. 2 ). The two barbs  12  are engaged with the two self-locking barbs  13 , thus forming a self-locking structure that appears after the trigger button  10  is pushed once. 
         [0049]    The ejection cavity  5  is provided inside with two spaces  17  allowing the two arms of the “U-shaped” branch structure of the push arm  11  to move downwards (see the area circled by the double dotted line as indicated by the reference number  17  in  FIG. 2 ). The Z direction of the space  17  is defined as a direction along which the push arm  11  moves downwards, the X direction parallel to axis of the needle  14 , and the Y direction perpendicular to the X and Z directions. The protective bar  4  is provided at the end inside the ejection cavity  5  with a safety action portion, which is provided for the two spaces  17  with two safety feet  16  extended from the end of the protective bar  4 . With the protective bar  4  assembled, the two safety feet  16  occupy the two spaces  17  in the Y direction, making the widths of the two spaces  17  in the Y direction both smaller than the width at which the push arm  11  of the “U-shaped” branch structure can be inserted, so as to prevent the push arm  11  from moving downwards to drive the barb  12  to be self-locked with the self-locking barb  13 . With the protective bar  4  disassembled, the two safety feet  16  both withdraw from the two spaces  17 , making the widths of the two spaces  17  in the Y direction bigger than or equal to the width at which the push arm  11  of the “U-shaped” branch structure can be inserted, so as to allow the push arm  11  to move downwards to drive the barb  12  to be self-locked with the self-locking barb  13 . Thus, a safety structure of the trigger button is formed. 
         [0050]      FIGS. 6-10  show the lancet core  2  and the protective bar  4  according to the examples of the present invention. These drawings clearly show details of each part of the lancet core  2  and the protective bar  4  as well as the connection relation in the assembly state. 
         [0051]    As shown in  FIGS. 1-3 , the present invention allows the lancet core to be assembled into the locking state of ready for ejection during manufacture of the blood lancet (or the lancet core is not assembled into the locking state of ready for ejection, but an action of pushing the protective bar  4  has to be added during application). In this state, since the protective bar  4  is not disassembled, and the trigger button  10  is in the safety protection state, an incorrect ejection will not occur. The medical care personnel only need to perform one action of twisting off the protective bar  4  during application to place the blood lancet in the ready-for-ejection state (see  FIG. 2  for the action of twisting off the protective bar  4 ). When the trigger button  10  is pushed, the push arm  11  pushes the flexible arm  8  to make the lancet core  2  disengaged from the casing  1 , and then the spring  3  pushes the lancet core  2  to eject (see  FIG. 4 ). Meanwhile, because of movement of the push arm  11 , the barb  12  exceeds the self-locking barb  13  when moving downwards (see  FIG. 2 ). Therefore, during the rebounding process, the barb  12  enters the self-locking state by being locked at the self-locking barb  13  and cannot go back to the original state, causing the bayonet ejection structure to fail and be unreusable (see  FIG. 5 ). 
         [0052]    In this example, the core pillar  15  in the front of the lancet core  2  refers to a pillar of the lancet core  2  at its front position wrapping the needle  14 . The sectional shape of the core pillar  15  is not defined strictly in the present invention, and can take any shape. However, the sectional shape is preferred to be of a cylinder or a prism in actual application, since such a design can make the protective bar  4  twisted off without causing any trouble. Otherwise, because the safety feet  16  are located at both sides of the core pillar  15 , twisting the protective bar  4  will cause some troubles, and the protective bar  4  can only be removed by being pulled out. The prism includes a triangular prism, a quadrangular prism (typically a square prism), a multi-angular prism, and so on. 
         [0053]    In this example, for facilitating assembly, a connection rib  19  can be arranged between the core pillar  15  and the two safety feet  16 , respectively, as shown in  FIG. 11 . The medical care personnel can twist broken the connection rib  19  when twisting the protective bar  4 , and then twist off the protective bar  4 . Alternatively, the connection rib  19  is not provided. 
         [0054]    In this example, the flexible arm  8  is designed for locking the lancet core  2 , and can take various forms, which will all fall within the extent of protection of the present invention so long as the lancet core  2  can be locked/released by engaging/disengaging the flexible arm  8  with/from the bayonet  9  on the lancet core  2  by making use of flexibility of the flexible arm  8 . The flexible arm  8  is preferred to be slantly arranged with an orientation as shown in  FIG. 1 , and can also be arranged in the opposite direction with a hook hooked at the bayonet  9 . 
       Example 2 
     A Safe Simple Disposable Automatic Blood Lancet 
       [0055]    As shown in  FIGS. 12-15 , this example is different from Example 1 in the following aspects: The safety action portion is arranged for the two spaces  17 , and refers to one safety jacket  20  extended from the end of the protective bar  4 . The safety jacket  20  is muff-coupled in front of the lancet core  2  or with the needle  14 . With the protective bar  4  assembled, the external edge of the safety jacket  20  occupies the two spaces  17  in the Y direction (see the direction as indicated by the coordinate in  FIG. 15 ) (see the area circled by the double dotted line as indicated by the reference number  17  in  FIG. 15 ), making the widths of the two spaces  17  in the Y direction both smaller than the width at which the push arm  11  of the “U-shaped” branch structure can be inserted, so as to prevent the push arm  11  from moving downwards to drive the barb  12  to be self-locked with the self-locking barb  13 . With the protective bar  4  disassembled, the safety jacket  20  withdraws from the two spaces  17 , making the widths of the two spaces  17  in the Y direction bigger than or equal to the width at which the push arm  11  of the “U-shaped” branch structure can be inserted, so as to allow the push arm  11  to move downwards to drive the barb  12  to be self-locked with the self-locking barb  13 . Thus, the safety structure of the trigger button is formed. The other structures and principles are similar to those in Example 1, and will not be described again here. 
       Example 3 
     A Safe Simple Disposable Automatic Blood Lancet 
       [0056]    As shown in  FIGS. 16-18 , this example is different from Example 1 in the following aspects: The safety action portion is arranged for the two spaces  17 , and refers to two safety wings  21  extended from the end of the protective bar  4 . With the protective bar  4  assembled, the two safety wings  21  occupy the two spaces  17  in the X direction (see the direction as indicated by the coordinate in  FIG. 16 ), making the widths of the two spaces  17  in the X direction both smaller than the width at which the push arm  11  of the “U-shaped” branch structure can be inserted, so as to prevent the push arm  11  from moving downwards to drive the barb  12  to be self-locked with the self-locking barb  13 . With the protective bar  4  disassembled, the two safety wings  21  both withdraw from the two spaces  17 , making the widths of the two spaces  17  in the X direction bigger than or equal to the width at which the push arm  11  of the “U-shaped” branch structure can be inserted, so as to allow the push arm  11  to move downwards to drive the barb  12  to be self-locked with the self-locking barb  13 . Thus, a safety structure of the trigger button is formed. The other structures and principles are similar to those in Example 1, and will not be described again here. 
       Example 4 
     A Safe Simple Disposable Automatic Blood Lancet 
       [0057]    As shown in  FIGS. 19-21 , this example is different from Example 1 in the following aspects: The safety action portion is arranged for the two spaces  17 , and refers to one safety bolt  22  extended from the end of the protective bar  4 . The safety bolt  22  is muff-coupled in front of the lancet core  2  or with the needle  14 . With the protective bar  4  assembled, the safety bolt  22  occupies the two spaces  17  in the Z direction (see the direction as indicated by the coordinate in  FIG. 21 ) (see the area circled by the double dotted line as indicated by the reference number  17  in  FIG. 21 ), making the two spaces ( 17 ) blocked in the Z direction, so as to prevent the push arm  11  from moving downwards to drive the barb  12  to be self-locked with the self-locking barb  13 . With the protective bar  4  disassembled, the safety bolt  22  withdraws from the two spaces  17 , making the two spaces ( 17 ) vacant in the Z direction, so as to allow the barb  12  to be self-locked with the self-locking barb  13  with the push arm  11  moving downwards. Thus, a safety structure of the trigger button is formed. The other structures and principles are similar to those in Example 1, and will not be described again here, 
       Example 5 
     A Safe Simple Disposable Automatic Blood Lancet 
       [0058]    As shown in  FIGS. 22-24 , this example is actually a combination of the structures of the safety action portions of Examples 2 and 3. Its safety action portion is specifically composed of one safety jacket  20  and two safety wings  21  extended from the end of the protective bar  4 . The two safety wings  21  are arranged at both sides of the safety jacket  20 . With the protective bar  4  assembled, the two safety jacket  20  occupy the two spaces  17  in the Y direction, and the two safety wings  21  in the X direction, making the widths of the two spaces  17  in the Y and X directions both smaller than the width at which the push arm  11  of the “U-shaped” branch structure can be inserted, so as to prevent the push arm  11  from moving downwards to drive the barb  12  to be self-locked with the self-locking barb  13 . With the protective bar  4  disassembled, both the safety jacket  20  and the safety wings  21  withdraw from the two spaces  17 , making the widths of the two spaces  17  in the Y and X directions bigger than or equal to the width at which the push arm  11  of the “U-shaped” branch structure can be inserted, so as to allow the push arm  11  to move downwards to drive the barb  12  to be self-locked with the self-locking barb  13 . Thus, a safety structure of the trigger button is formed. The other structures and principles are similar to those in Example 1, and will not be described again here.

       [0059]    This example is actually a combination of the structures of the safety action portions of Examples 1 and 3 (not shown in the drawings). Its safety action portion is specifically composed of two safety feet  16  and two safety wings  21  extended from the end of the protective bar  4 . With the protective bar  4  assembled, the two safety feet  16  occupy the two spaces  17  in the Y direction, and the two safety wings  21  in the X direction, making the widths of the two spaces  17  in the Y and X directions both smaller than the width at which the push arm  11  of the “U-shaped” branch structure can be inserted, so as to prevent the push arm  11  from moving downwards to drive the barb  12  to be self-locked with the self-locking barb  13 . With the protective bar  4  disassembled, both the two safety feet  16  and the two safety wings  21  withdraw from the two spaces  17 , making the widths of the two spaces  17  in the Y and X directions bigger than or equal to the width at which the push arm  11  of the “U-shaped” branch structure can be inserted, so as to allow the push arm  11  to move downwards to drive the barb  12  to be self-locked with the self-locking barb  13 . Thus, a safety structure of the trigger button is formed. 
         [0060]    According to Examples 1-6 as described above, those skilled in the art can fully understand and implement the technical solutions that the space  17  is occupied by the safety action portion in the combined X and Z directions as well as in the combined Y and Z directions. Therefore, these cases will not be described here in detail. 
         [0061]    The examples as described above are used only for explaining technical concept and characteristics of the present invention. They are provided rather to make those skilled in the art understand the present invention and implement it, than to limit the extent of protection of the present invention. All equivalent changes or modifications according to the spirit of the present invention should fall within the extent of protection of the present invention.
