Clinically, the injection pump product is usually used in the intravenous infusion environment which needs to keep constant administration speed and accurate administration amount in a longer time, and is mainly used for injecting the cardiovascular active drugs, the anesthetics and the hormones which have small liquid amount and high concentration and need to be accurately controlled, such as dopamine, dobutamine, epinephrine, norepinephrine, lidocaine, nitroglycerin, sodium nitroprusside and the like. Other fluids may also be injected as clinically needed.
Referring to fig. 1 and 2, the syringe pump 100 includes a pump body 110, a driving device, a control unit, a physical button 120, and a pump door 130. Wherein the driving device and the control unit are not shown in the figure.
The pump body 110 has mounting structure 1111 for mounting the syringe 300, such as by clamping structure to hold the barrel of the syringe 300 in place. The mounting structure 1111 includes, but is not limited to, a clamping structure, a magnetic attraction structure, a snap structure, a tight fit structure, and the like. The driving device is used for driving the piston rod of the injector 300 to move so as to inject liquid. Such as by pushing a plunger rod of the injector 300 via the ram 141 as shown. Wherein the driving device may generally employ a motor as a power unit, wherein the motor converts the selective motion into a linear motion via a transmission mechanism (e.g., a lead screw and nut transmission mechanism), thereby pushing a piston rod of the syringe 300 to move and squeeze the liquid in the syringe 300. In terms of the working principle, the injection operation of the injection pump 100 is that the single chip microcomputer system sends out control pulses to rotate the motor through the driving circuit, the motor drives the screw rod and the nut through the speed reducing mechanism to convert the rotation motion of the motor into the linear motion of the nut, and the nut is connected with the push rod 141 of the matched injector 300, so that the piston of the matched injector 300 can be pushed to perform injection and transfusion. By setting the rotational speed of the motor, the rate of advancement of the motor to the mating syringe 300, and thus the dosage and rate of administration, can be adjusted. Of course, the driving device may be a power unit capable of outputting linear motion, such as an air cylinder, in addition to the motor.
The control unit is used for controlling the driving device. The control unit may include a processor and a peripheral interface. The processor may be used to send instructions to the drive. The peripheral device interface can be connected with peripheral devices such as the entity key 120 and the like for signal transmission, so that the processor can control the driving device according to the wishes of the user.
The control unit is electrically connected to the physical keys 120 for the user to input commands. The entity key 120 includes at least one of a power key, an emergency stop key, a main menu key, a screen unlock key, and a pump door unlock key. The physical keys 120 may control the processor through a bus and peripheral interfaces. The specific power supply key is used for being connected with the control unit, and the control unit is driven to send a control signal to the power supply system by pressing the power supply key so as to realize power supply and power off of the injection pump. The specific emergency stop key is used for being connected with the control unit, and the control unit is driven to send a control signal to the driving device by pressing the emergency stop key so as to realize the movement or stop of the driving device of the injection pump. The specific main menu key is used for being connected with the control unit, and the control unit is driven to send a control signal to the display screen control chip by pressing the main menu key, so that an infusion main interface is displayed on the display screen. The specific screen unlocking key is used for being connected with the control unit, and the control unit is driven by the screen unlocking key to send a control signal to the touch screen control chip, so that a preset touch function or a preset touch area is opened/closed on the touch screen. The pump door unlocking key is used for being connected with the control unit, and the pump door unlocking key is pressed to drive the control unit to send a control signal to the pump door switching mechanism so as to open or close the pump door.
The pump door 130 is movably mounted on the pump body 110 to cover and uncover the syringe 300 mounted on the pump body 110, so as to prevent the syringe from being touched by foreign objects during the operation of the syringe pump 100 and affecting the injection operation. Referring to fig. 1 and 2, the door 130 is rotatably mounted to the pump body 110, and this rotatable mounting is achieved by a hinge. In addition, the pump door 130 may be mounted in other movable manners, such as sliding or folding. When the pump door 130 is opened in a foldable manner, at least one of the through window 133 and the screen assembly 132 may also be provided in a foldable manner, if necessary.
The pump door 130 includes a door body 131, a transparent window 133, and a screen assembly 132. The screen component 132 is connected to a control unit (specifically, a processor) so as to be controlled by the control unit to display specified information, and at the same time, to input instructions and information to the control unit in a touch manner. The screen element 132 has a display area 1321 capable of displaying information, wherein at least a part of the display area 1321 has a touch function, i.e. at least a part of the area of the screen element 132 is a touch display screen, which is connectable to a control unit, and is capable of both displaying information and receiving a touch instruction of a user. The non-touch area of the display area 1321 may be used only for displaying, and may be a common display screen.
At least a part of the display area 1321 of the screen component 132 has a touch function, so that some physical keys 120 for inputting instructions can be omitted, for example, only important power keys 121 and emergency stop keys 122 are reserved, and thus, the display area 1321 can be ensured to be larger, more information can be displayed, and the user can conveniently view the display area.
Referring to fig. 1 and 2, in one embodiment, a side of the door 131 facing a user is a front side of the pump door 130. Wherein the screen assembly 132 is disposed on the front surface of the pump door 130, the display area 1321 of the screen assembly 132 extends from the left side of the center line of the front surface of the pump door 130 to the right side of the center line, and the display area 1321 of the screen assembly 132 has a width greater than its height. As shown in fig. 3, the display area 1321 may extend from the left side of the center line of the front surface of the pump door 130 to the right side of the center line, or may be divided into a left display area 1321 and a right display area 1321, the left display area 1321 is located at the left side of the center line, and the right display area 1321 is located at the right side of the center line. The left display area 1321 and the right display area 1321 may be seamlessly butted or may be disposed at a certain distance.
In this embodiment, the display area 1321 is substantially in the shape of a long bar, and since the original physical keys 120 are reduced and the flat shape of the syringe pump 100, which is wider than higher, is fully utilized, the area of the display area 1321 is greatly increased, so that more information can be displayed and the user can conveniently view the information.
Further, in the syringe pump 100 of the other embodiments, the width of the display area 1321 of the screen assembly 132 is greater than or equal to 70% of the width of the front surface of the pump door 130. Since the syringe pump 100 is generally wider than it is tall, the space in the width direction of the syringe pump 100 is sufficient to form an elongated display area 1321 that is larger than the display area 1321 of the existing product. And then guarantee that display area 1321 is bigger, the show of more information of reality can be convenient for the user to look over. The width is a distance between the right and left sides of the syringe pump 100 in a normal use state. The height is the distance between the top and bottom sides in the vertical direction in the normal use of syringe pump 100.
Of course, in one embodiment, the width of the display area 1321 of the screen assembly 132 may be greater than or equal to 70% of the width of the front surface of the pump door 130, or the display area 1321 may extend from the left side of the center line of the front surface of the pump door 130 to the right side of the center line as a whole, so as to further increase the area of the display area 1321 of the screen assembly 132.
Further, referring to fig. 1-3, the through window 133 is installed on the door 131, and at least one end of the liquid outlet of the syringe 300 installed on the pump body 110 can be visually displayed through the through window 133, so that a user can conveniently observe whether liquid is still left at one end of the liquid outlet of the syringe 300, whether a problem occurs in connection between one end of the liquid outlet and the extension tube 400, and the like through the through window 133, so as to timely judge the injection progress and take corresponding measures. The transparent window 133 may be made of a transparent material, such as glass or transparent plastic. In addition, the window 133 may also be a hollow window, so that the injector 300 can be displayed in front of the user through the window.
Of course, the syringe pump 100 may also include other components, such as a motor drive system, a memory system, a sensor monitoring system, an alarm system, etc., which are not further described herein.
Referring to fig. 2, in another embodiment, the mounting structure 1111 may be, but is not limited to, a clamping mechanism, and the mounting structure 1111 is located on the inner side of the pump door 130 to fix the syringe 300.
The clamping mechanism includes a clamping block and an elastic member (spring, leaf spring, etc.) for driving the clamping block to move in the direction of releasing the syringe 300. The holding block is movably mounted on the pump body 110 and has a syringe 300 placing position for placing the syringe 300. The clamping block is located inside the pump door 130 and on a moving path when the pump door 130 is closed. When the pump door 130 is closed, the pump door 130 pushes the clamping mechanism to clamp the syringe 300, preventing it from moving. When the pump door 130 is opened, the clamping mechanism is reset without the support of the pump door 130, releasing the syringe 300 for the user to access the syringe 300.
The mounting structure 1111 is located on the inner side of the pump door 130, and can release the space on the outer side of the pump door 130 so that there is more space on the front side of the pump door 130 for the screen assembly 132, which is also beneficial to setting the display area 1321 of the screen assembly 132 large enough.
Further, referring to FIG. 3, in one embodiment, the height of the display area 1321 of the screen assembly 132 is greater than or equal to 60% of the height of the front surface of the pump door 130. Thus, the ratio of the display area 1321 on the front side of the pump door 130 can be further improved, more information can be displayed, and more personalized setting and display can be conveniently carried out according to the needs of users.
In one embodiment, a portion of the display area 1321 of the screen component 132 has a touch function, and information or instructions input by a user through a touch manner are displayed on the display area 1321 in real time. Referring to fig. 4 and 5, the portion with touch function can be referred to as a touch area 1321a (the portion in the box indicated by the reference numeral), and the non-touch area in the display area 1321 is referred to as a real-time display area 1321b (the portion in the box indicated by the reference numeral). Information and instructions entered by the user in touch area 1321a may be displayed in real time in display area 1321, including the entire display area 1321 (including touch area 1321a itself) and including only real time display area 1321 b. The real-time display area 1321b and the touch area 1321a may be implemented by a whole large screen in a partitioned manner, or may be implemented by different small screens.
Preferably, in one embodiment, the area of the display area 1321 of the screen assembly 132 is greater than or equal to 2/3 of the area of the front surface of the pump door 130. This allows a larger area of the display area 1321 and the touch area 1321a (the portion of the display area 1321 having the touch function).
In another embodiment, the entire display area 1321 of the screen element 132 is a touch display screen with both information display and touch functions. The touch display screen can be realized by various screen assemblies which can realize information display and touch functions. The whole touch display screen can be used as a touch area 1321a, so that more information can be displayed, the operation space of a user is enlarged, and the use convenience is greatly improved.
Further, the window 133 is used to allow a user to conveniently view the pump door 130, which is typically centered on the outlet end of the syringe 300. Referring to fig. 3, in one embodiment, in order to enlarge the viewing field of the user, the width of the transparent window 133 is greater than or equal to 30% of the width of the front surface of the pump door 130.
The position of the through window 133 and the screen assembly 132 can be flexibly set according to the position of the injector 300, referring to fig. 3, in one embodiment, the through window 133 is located at the upper part of the front surface of the pump door 130, and the screen assembly 132 is located below the through window 133. The syringe 300 is located at the position corresponding to the through window 133, and the condition in the syringe 300 can be conveniently determined through the through window 133.
Referring to fig. 6 and 7, in one embodiment, the window 133 is located at a lower portion of the front surface of the pump door 130, and the screen assembly 132 is located above the window 133. At this time, the syringe 300 may be placed at a lower position within the pump door 130 corresponding to the through window 133.
Wherein, when the through window 133 is positioned below the screen assembly 132, as shown in fig. 6 and 7, the left or right portion of the screen assembly 132 extends downward to one side of the through window 133, and is juxtaposed to the through window 133. Wherein, in fig. 6, the left portion of the screen assembly 132 is downwardly convex. In fig. 7, the right portion of the screen assembly 132 is downwardly convex. Similarly, in this case, the downward protruding portion of the screen assembly 132 may extend directly to the frame position of the door 131, or may be kept at a certain distance from the frame position of the door 131 (as shown in fig. 6 and 7), so as to ensure that the width of the through window 133 is approximately equal to the front width of the pump door 130.
As shown in fig. 8-12, when the transparent window 133 is located above the screen assembly 132, the left or right portion of the screen assembly 132 extends upward to one side of the transparent window 133 and is juxtaposed to the transparent window 133. When the screen assembly 132 protrudes upwards, the protruding portion may extend to the frame of the door 131 as shown in fig. 8 and 9, or the protruding portion may have a certain distance from the frame of the door 131 as shown in fig. 10-12, which not only enlarges the area of the screen assembly 132, but also ensures the size of the through window 133 in width, so that the width of the through window 133 can be set to be approximately equal to the front width of the pump door 130 when necessary.
Further, as shown in fig. 10-16, in some embodiments, a warning light 140 may be included, with warning light 140 being disposed above, below, to the side of, or integrated into screen assembly 132. In fig. 8, 10-12, the warning light 140 is integrated into a raised portion of the left portion of the screen assembly 132. In fig. 13 to 15, the warning lamp 140 is provided at a position of a frame of the door 131. In fig. 16, the warning lamp 140 is integrated on the left side of the screen assembly 132. Of course, the warning light 140 may be disposed at other positions of the pump door 130 and the pump body 110, which is not illustrated herein.
Further, in order to ensure the sealing performance, referring to fig. 17, the through window 133 and the screen assembly 132 are hermetically spliced to prevent dust and other foreign objects from entering the pump body 110 through a gap therebetween. The gap between the window 133 and the screen assembly 132 may be achieved by glue filling, interference fit, welding, and providing a seal.
Referring to fig. 17 and 18, in an embodiment, the door 131 has a frame 1311 and a support beam 1312 disposed on the frame 1311, the support beam 1312 divides the frame 1311 into a window installation area and a screen installation area, the window 133 is fixed in the window installation area, and the screen assembly 132 is fixed in the screen installation area.
As a solution with low cost and good sealing effect, in an embodiment, the transparent window 133 is made of transparent plastic, and is formed into an integral structure with the frame 1311 by a two-shot molding process, and the screen assembly 132 is fixed and sealed with the support beam 1312 and the transparent window 133 by gluing.
Referring to fig. 18-20, fig. 20 is an enlarged view of a portion a of fig. 19. The edges of the screen assembly 132 form a step-like structure that is sealingly mounted to the corresponding frame 1311 and support beam 1312. Wherein, the gap between the screen assembly 132 and the transparent window 133 is filled with glue 134, so that the screen assembly 132 and the transparent window 133 are hermetically spliced.
After the screen assembly 132 and the through window 133 are spliced, the screen assembly 132 and the through window 133 form a whole with the door body 131, and the screen assembly and the door body can be integrally moved and assembled and disassembled on the pump body 110, so that the screen assembly is very convenient.
The screen assembly 132 can have a large screen (e.g., a unitary touch screen), and in one embodiment, referring to fig. 21 and 22, the screen assembly 132 can have at least two separate small screens. Two adjacent small screens are separately arranged or separated by a light-tight frame. In fig. 21, the screen assembly 132 has two separate small screens 132a, 132 b. In fig. 22, the screen assembly 132 has three separate small screens 132a, 132b, 132 c.
In some embodiments, at least one of the small screens can be selected as a common display screen for displaying information only, and at least one of the small screens can be selected as a touch display screen capable of displaying information and realizing touch control functions, so that the display and touch control functions can be completed under the combination of the small screens. For example, some small screens can be used as the real-time display area 1321b, and some small screens can be used as the touch area 1321 a.
Further, referring to fig. 23-26, in one embodiment, the screen assembly 132 includes an outer panel 1322, a touch screen 1323 and a display screen 1324, wherein the outer panel 1322 has a transparent area 1322a and an opaque area 1322b disposed around the transparent area 1322 a. The outer panel 1322 may be formed from clear glass, plastic, or other material. The display area of the display 1324 is exposed through the transparent area 1322a for displaying related information. The opaque region 1322b has an upper region 1322b-1, a lower region 1322b-2, a first side region 1322b-3, and a second side region 1322b-4, the first side region 1322b-3 and the second side region 1322b-4 being located between the upper region 1322b-1 and the lower region 1322 b-2. The opaque region 1322b is generally square shaped, but may have other shapes, such as circular or irregular. Usually, the display 1324 is correspondingly provided with a display control chip (not shown because it is hidden in the figure), and the touch panel 1323 is correspondingly provided with a touch control chip (not shown because it is hidden in the figure). In a typical display panel, a plurality of display control chips are provided for transmitting and receiving signals, respectively. Because the number of the display control chips is large, and the touch control chips are added, it is difficult to find a place on the pump door to put all the chips down. Therefore, in a general syringe pump, the display control chip and the touch control chip are mounted on the upper side or the lower side of the back surface of the door 131. In order to not expose the control chips, the opaque regions 1322b need to be shielded, which results in the upper and lower regions 1322b-1 and 1322b-2 of the opaque regions 1322b being wider, and generally the width of the upper region 1322b-1 or the lower region 1322b-2 is difficult to be made less than 40 mm. In addition, the syringe pump 100 itself is not high, so that the display area 1321 of the screen assembly 132 is further compressed in the height direction, which is not favorable for displaying information.
In contrast, in this embodiment, the sending end and the receiving end of the display 1324 are integrated on one display control chip, which reduces the number of display control chips and reduces the assembly space required by the display control chips and the touch control chips. Further, referring to fig. 24, the display control chip and the touch control chip are disposed on the back of the first side area 1322 b-3. The first side region 1322b-3 may be the left side or the right side of the outer panel 1322.
This configuration may allow for the upper 1322b-1, lower 1322b-2, and second side 1322b-4 regions of opaque region 1322b in outer panel 1322 to be reduced in width (e.g., the dimension in the direction indicated by B, C, D in fig. 23) as desired, allowing for a larger display area 1321 of outer panel 1322 without changing the size of outer panel 1322, which may also be made larger for display 1324, increasing the area of display area 1321.
Thus, the display area 1321 of the screen assembly 132 can be as close to the outer edge of the opaque area 1322b as possible on the upper and lower sides, and a narrow bezel effect can be achieved. This configuration takes full advantage of the width of the pump door 130, allowing the display area 1321 of the screen assembly 132 to be further raised in height dimension without changing the volume of the pump door 130. Based on this structure, in one embodiment, the width of the opaque region 1322b in the region where the control chip is not disposed, for example, the width of the upper region 1322b-1, the lower region 1322b-2 and the second side region 1322b-4, may be set to be 2-4mm, for example, 3.3mm, at the minimum.
Further, in one embodiment, a screen test interface is disposed on the back side of the first side 1322b-3, and the screen test interface is connected to the display control chip and the touch control chip. The display control chip, the touch control chip and the screen test interface are arranged on the same side, so that the wire outgoing is facilitated, the space of the unilateral screen test interface can be smaller than 12mm, and the occupied space of the unilateral screen test interface is preferably reduced by 6 mm. Meanwhile, the space occupied by the non-display area 1321 above and below the opaque area 1322b is minimized, and the upper and lower sides of the opaque area 1322b are extremely narrow, and can be less than 40 mm.
The embodiment uses a single integrated chip, adopts a mode of integrating a driving end and a receiving end, and places the side edge. Moreover, the embodiment adopts a single-side setting test interface, and the width of the test interface is set below 12 mm. Based on the structure, by adopting the scheme shown in the above embodiment, the display 1324 can generally adopt a COG process with lower cost, that is, a chip on glass process, which can reduce the cost and meet the requirement of coordination of a narrow frame and the whole.
Referring to fig. 24, in an embodiment, to further reduce the space of the control chip, the interface of the display 1324 and the interface of the touch screen 1323 are integrated into an integrated interface 1325.
The display control chip has an interface cable 1325a, the touch control chip has an interface cable 1325b, and the two interface cables are integrated on an integrated interface 1325 integrating display and touch control, so that the respective interfaces do not need to be separately arranged.
In order not to encroach too much on the space of the first side wall 1322b-3, referring to fig. 24, in one embodiment, the integrated interface 1325 is disposed from the first side wall 1322b-3 to the middle of the display 1324 along the length of the display 1324. In this way, the integrated interface 1325 can be located on the back of the display 1324 without extending beyond the perimeter of the display 1324 to avoid increasing the width of the other sides of the opaque region 1322 b.
In one embodiment, the display area 1321 is 7 inches in size so that more information can be displayed for viewing by the user.
In one embodiment, in the case of an enlarged display area 1321, to ensure display quality, the screen resolution of the display 1324 is not less than 960 × 272 in one embodiment.
To take full advantage of the greater width and length of the pump door, in one embodiment, the length of the display area 1321 is greater than 5 times its width, for example, the ratio of length to width is 6: 1.
Referring to fig. 6-7, 11-14 and 16, in some embodiments, the physical key 120 is disposed on the front surface of the pump door 130, and is located above, below, beside or integrated on the screen element 132. The physical keys 120 integrated with the screen component 132 can also be disposed above, below or on the sides of the screen component 132.
With continued reference to fig. 1 and 3, the present embodiment further arranges some or all of the physical keys 120 on a side portion (key hole 1322b-5 shown in the figure, i.e., a second side region) of the outer panel 1322 opposite to the control chip 1324. In the layout, the control chip 1324 and the physical keys 120 (the key holes 1322b-5 are shown in the figure) are respectively arranged on two sides of the screen 1323, the layout is relatively fixed, the requirements of man-machine operation are met, the narrow frame design of the upper side region 1322b-1 and the lower side region 1322b-2 of the screen assembly 132 can be realized, the display region 1321 is enlarged, the whole screen assembly 132 and the physical keys 120 can be integrally coordinated, and the ergonomic habit of a user is met.
In a typical touch display screen, the screen itself is made of glass, and it is complicated to add the physical keys 120 to the screen. Therefore, the keys of the touch display screen generally use the touch function, add sound and light, and vibrate to improve the sensitivity of the client of the keys, but the feeling given to the client by this method cannot reach the effect of the physical keys 120, and meanwhile, the reliability is not reliable than the physical keys 120, and the recognizability is not strong than the physical keys 120. The physical keys 120 of some non-touch display screens are difficult to realize that liquid or dirt does not remain on the keys, and although the problem of liquid residue can be solved by a surface pasting mode, the transparent effect of glass is difficult to achieve in the aspect of appearance, and the effect of the touch display screen cannot be achieved.
Further, referring to fig. 5-7, the physical key 120 includes a key switch 126 connected to the control unit, a key cap 124 covering the key switch 126, and a supporting frame 125 supported inside the key cap 124. The key switch 126 is located on the inside of the outer panel 1322. Keycap 124 extends partially from the inside of outer panel 1322 through key hole 1322b-5 for depression by a user. The keycap and the key switch can be movably contacted or disconnected according to the pressure on the keycap. The support skeleton 125 secures the key cap 124 within the key hole 1322 b-5. The keycap 124 is in sealing fit with the opening wall of the key hole 1322b-5, and the waterproof and dustproof effects are achieved.
In one embodiment, referring to fig. 27, one end of the supporting frame 125 abuts against the frame 1311 of the door 131, and the other end abuts against the key cap 124, so that the key cap 124 is in a suspended state. The support frame 125 is configured for easy assembly and easy manufacture, and can be used to conveniently secure the keycap 124 to the outer panel 1322 of the screen assembly 132.
Of course, in some embodiments, the supporting frame 125 can be omitted, and the keycap 124 can be directly fixedly connected to the outer panel 1322 or the door 131 (e.g., the frame 1311 or the supporting beam 1312) by other means, such as welding, clamping or other fixing means, so as to be fixed in the opening wall of the key hole 1322 b-5.
Further, referring to fig. 25-27, the key cap 124 has a pressing portion 1241 and a mounting portion 1243 bent from the outer periphery of the pressing portion 1241, the mounting portion 1243 is located between the door 131 and the screen assembly 132, and can be clamped by the door 131 (specifically, the middle portion of the frame 1311) and the screen assembly 132 (specifically, the outer panel 1322), so as to prevent the key cap 124 from being displaced. Of course, the key cap 124 may be in a relaxed state between the door 131 (specifically, the frame 1311) and the screen assembly 132 (specifically, the outer panel 1322). One surface of the pressing portion 1241 facing the key switch 126 is provided with a convex abutting block 1242, the abutting block 1242 can be separated from the key switch 126 or transmitted without force under normal conditions, and when the key cap 124 is pressed down, the abutting block 1242 can abut against the key switch 126 to trigger the key switch 126.
The key cap 124 can be made of elastic materials, preferably elastic flexible materials, so as to improve the pressing hand feeling. In one embodiment, the supporting framework 125 tightly supports the inner wall of the key cap 124, so that the key cap 124 is tightly fitted with the opening wall of the key hole 1322b-5 to achieve a sealed connection. Of course, in some embodiments, the keycap 124 and the outer panel 1322 can be hermetically connected by a sealing member and/or an adhesive.
The design can integrate the entity key 120 with the screen component 132 or the outer cover, particularly, the entity key 120 is integrated on the screen component 132 under the condition of not damaging the screen, so that the hand feeling of the entity key 120 is met on the basis of ensuring that the screen effect is not influenced, liquid can be prevented from entering the screen, the screen is convenient to clean, and the requirement of frequently disinfecting and cleaning medical instruments is met. In addition, because existing infusion pumps and/or syringe pumps are often used in multiple pieces, and because of space constraints, it is common to stack the infusion pump and/or syringe pump in multiple pieces, or even to place the multiple pieces in a stack in a mounting rack; in this regard, the infusion pump and/or the syringe pump are typically exposed only on the front side. In the scheme, the entity keys 120 and the screen component 132 are integrated into a whole and are arranged on the front surface of the infusion pump, so that the pressing operation of a user can be facilitated, and particularly, medical personnel can conveniently operate the keys of the infusion pump on the front surface of the infusion pump under the medical emergency condition.
In one embodiment, the shortest distance from the transparent area 1322a of the outer panel 1322 to the wall of the key hole 1322b-5 is 2-4mm, so that the area of the transparent area 1322a can be enlarged as much as possible without changing the size of the outer panel 1322, so as to expose more display areas of the display 1324.
In one embodiment, the outer surface of the pressing portion 1241 of the key cap 124 is flush with the outer surface of the outer panel 1322, so that the outer surface of the screen assembly 132 maintains a good flatness, and the screen assembly 132 and the solid keys 120 are integrally formed as a single plane, which is simple and elegant, and is also convenient for cleaning.
Of course, the syringe pump 100 shown in fig. 1 and 2 is merely exemplary, and in other embodiments, the screen assembly 132 and the physical buttons 120 may be disposed on the pump body 110. Alternatively, in some embodiments, the syringe pump 100 may not have the pump door 130, and the entire syringe pump 100 is a unitary structure similar to the pump body 110, in which case the screen assembly 132 and the physical keys 120 may also be disposed on the unitary structure.
Outer panel 1322
Based on the inventive concept, the embodiment of the application also provides an infusion pump. Unlike the injection pump 100 described above, the infusion pump is configured to drive the infusion tube to deliver the infusion at a set time and flow rate.
In one embodiment, referring to fig. 28 and 29, the infusion pump includes a pump body 210, a drive device, a control unit, physical keys 220, and a pump door 230. Wherein the driving device and the control unit are not shown in the figure.
The pump body 210 has a placement position 211 for placing the infusion tube, and also has a liquid stopping structure (not shown) for installing the infusion tube and cutting off the infusion tube during the non-working stage, so as to prevent the liquid in the infusion tube from excessively entering the patient. Under the normal transfusion state, the liquid in the transfusion tube can freely flow. When the pump door 230 is opened, the liquid stop clip clamps the infusion tube and cuts off the flow of liquid. The liquid stopping structure is linked with the pump door 230, the cut-off state of the liquid stopping structure to the infusion tube is controlled by the movement of the pump door 230, for example, the liquid stopping structure is driven to cut off the infusion tube when the pump door 230 is opened, the liquid stopping structure can release the infusion tube when the pump door 230 is closed, the infusion tube can still be in the state of cutting off the infusion tube, and the timing of cutting off the infusion tube by the liquid stopping structure is controlled by the control unit. The liquid stopping structure includes but is not limited to a clamping structure such as a liquid stopping clamp. The driving device is used for liquid in the transfusion tube to flow. Wherein, the driving device can adopt a peristaltic pump or other devices which can drive the liquid in the transfusion tube to move. The peristaltic pump may include a motor and corresponding peristaltic mechanism.
The control unit is used for controlling the driving device. The control unit may include a processor and a peripheral interface. The processor may be used to send instructions to the drive. The peripheral device interface can be connected with peripheral devices such as the entity key 220 and the like for signal transmission, so that the processor can control the driving device according to the wishes of the user.
The control unit is electrically connected to physical keys 220 for a user to input commands. The entity button 220 includes at least one of a power button, an emergency stop button, a main menu button, a screen unlock button, and a pump unlock button. The physical keys 220 may control the processor through a bus and peripheral interfaces. The specific power key is used for being connected with the control unit, and the control unit is driven to send a control signal to the power system by pressing the power key so as to realize power supply and power off of the injection pump. The specific emergency stop key is used for being connected with the control unit, and the control unit is driven to send a control signal to the driving device by pressing the emergency stop key so as to realize the movement or stop of the driving device of the injection pump. The specific main menu key is used for being connected with the control unit, and the control unit is driven to send a control signal to the display screen control chip by pressing the main menu key, so that an infusion main interface is displayed on the display screen. The specific screen unlocking key is used for being connected with the control unit, and the control unit is driven by the screen unlocking key to send a control signal to the touch screen control chip, so that a preset touch function or a preset touch area is opened/closed on the touch screen. The pump door unlocking button is used for being connected with the control unit, and the pump door unlocking button is pressed to drive the control unit to send a control signal to the pump door switching mechanism so as to open or close the pump door. Generally, a user sets the flow rate and the volume of medicine and liquid required by a patient according to medical orders through a human-computer interface of an infusion pump, an infusion set which can be matched with the infusion pump is selected according to the brand and specification of the infusion set indicated by the infusion pump, and a control system of the infusion pump automatically converts the operation parameters of a driving motor into the operation parameters of the driving motor according to preset infusion set characteristic parameters and flow data. The driving motor drives the cam shaft of the peristaltic mechanism to rotate through the speed reducing mechanism, the cam shaft rotates to drive the group of pump blades to do linear reciprocating motion, the pump blade group is matched with the extrusion plate to sequentially extrude and release the outer wall of the infusion apparatus in a reciprocating mode, and liquid in the infusion tube is driven to continuously flow in a directional mode, so that the purpose of constant-speed and quantitative infusion is achieved.
The pump door 230 is movably mounted on the pump body 210 to cover and uncover the infusion tube mounted on the pump body 210, so as to prevent the infusion pump from being touched by foreign objects during operation and affecting the injection operation. Referring to fig. 28 and 29, the door 230 is rotatably mounted to the pump body 210, and this rotation is achieved by a hinge. In addition, the pump door 230 may be mounted in other movable manners, such as sliding or folding. When the pump door 230 is opened in a foldable manner, the screen assembly 132 may also be provided in a foldable manner, if desired.
The pump door 230 includes a door body 231 and a screen assembly 232. The screen component 232 is connected to the control unit (specifically, a processor) so as to be controlled by the control unit to display the specified information, and meanwhile, to input instructions and information to the control unit in a touch manner. The screen element 232 has a display area 2321 capable of displaying information, wherein at least a part of the display area 2321 has a touch function, that is, at least a part of the area of the screen element 232 is a touch display screen, which can be connected to the control unit, and can display information and receive a touch instruction of a user. The non-touch area of the display area 2321 may be used for display only, and may be a common display screen.
At least a part of the display region 2321 of the screen component 232 has a touch function, so that some entity keys 220 for inputting instructions can be omitted, for example, only important power keys 221 and emergency stop keys 222 are reserved, and thus, the display region 2321 can be ensured to be larger, more information can be displayed, and the user can conveniently view the information.
Referring to fig. 28-30, in one embodiment, the side of the door 231 facing the user is the front side of the pump door 230. The screen assembly 232 is disposed on the front surface of the pump door 230, the display region 2321 of the screen assembly 232 extends from the left side of the center line of the front surface of the pump door 230 to the right side of the center line, and the width of the display region 2321 of the screen assembly 232 is greater than the height thereof. As shown in fig. 30, the display area 2321 may extend from the left side of the center line of the front surface of the pump door 230 to the right side of the center line, or may be divided into a left display area and a right display area, where the left display area is located at the left side of the center line, and the right display area is located at the right side of the center line. The left display area and the right display area can be in seamless butt joint, and can also be arranged at a certain distance.
In this embodiment, the display area 2321 is substantially in a long bar shape, and since the original physical keys 220 are reduced and the flat shape of the infusion pump with the width larger than the height is fully utilized, the area of the display area 2321 is greatly increased, so that more information can be displayed and the user can conveniently check the information.
Further, referring to fig. 30, in another embodiment of the infusion pump, the width of the display area 2321 of the screen assembly 232 is greater than or equal to 70% of the width of the front surface of the pump door 230. Since the width of the infusion pump is generally larger than the height, the space in the width direction of the infusion pump can be fully filled, and therefore an elongated display area 2321 larger than the display area 2321 of the existing product is formed. Further, the display area 2321 is ensured to be larger, so that more information can be displayed, and the user can conveniently check the information. Wherein, the width refers to the distance between the left side and the right side of the infusion pump under the normal use state. The height is the distance between the top side and the bottom side in the vertical direction under the normal use state of the infusion pump.
Of course, in a certain embodiment, the width of the display area 2321 of the screen component 232 may be greater than or equal to 70% of the width of the front surface of the pump door 230, and the display area 2321 may extend from the left side of the center line of the front surface of the pump door 230 to the right side of the center line as a whole, so as to further increase the size of the display area 2321 of the screen component 232.
Of course, the infusion pump may also include other components, such as a plunger pump drive system, a storage system, a sensory monitoring system, an alarm system, etc., which are not further detailed herein.
Further, referring to fig. 30, in one embodiment, the height of the display area 2321 of the screen assembly 232 is greater than or equal to 60% of the height of the front surface of the pump door 230. Therefore, the occupation ratio of the display area 2321 on the front surface of the pump door 230 can be further improved, more information can be displayed, and more personalized setting and display can be conveniently performed according to the needs of the user.
In one embodiment, a portion of the display area 2321 of the screen component 232 has a touch function, and information or instructions input by a user through a touch manner are displayed on the display area 2321 in real time. Referring to fig. 4 and 5 (although fig. 4 and 5 show the syringe pump 100, the distribution of the display area 1321 can also be applied to an infusion pump, the structure of the display area 1321 is the structure of the display area 2321 of the screen element 232 in the present embodiment), the portion with the touch function is referred to as a touch area 1321a, and the non-touch area in the display area 2321 is referred to as a real-time display area 1321 b. Information and instructions input by the user in the touch area 1321a may be displayed in the display area 2321 in real time, which includes displaying in the entire display area 2321 (including the touch area 1321a itself), and also includes displaying only in the real-time display area 1321 b. The real-time display area 1321b and the touch area 1321a may be implemented by a whole large screen 1323 in a partitioned manner, or may be implemented by different small screens.
Preferably, in one embodiment, the area of the display region 2321 of the screen assembly 232 is greater than or equal to 2/3 of the area of the front surface of the pump door 230. In this way, a larger area of the display region 2321 and the touch region 1321a (a portion of the display region 2321 having a touch function) may be provided.
In another embodiment, the entire display region 2321 of the screen element 232 is a touch display screen with both information display and touch functions. The touch display screen can be realized by various screen assemblies which can realize information display and touch functions. The whole touch display screen can be used as a touch area 1321a, so that more information can be displayed, the operation of a user is facilitated, and the use convenience is greatly improved.
Referring to fig. 31-39, in one embodiment, the screen assembly 232 is located below the front of the pump door 230. The left or right portion of the screen assembly 232 extends upward to enlarge the area of the screen assembly 232. When the screen assembly 232 is raised upward, it can be seen from fig. 31-33 that the raised portion is spaced from the frame 1322 of the door 231. Alternatively, as shown in fig. 34-39, the raised portion may extend to the rim 1322 of the door body 231.
Of course, in other embodiments, the screen assembly 232 is located below the front of the pump door 230. At this time, the left or right portion of the screen assembly 232 extends downward, enlarging the area of the screen assembly 232.
Further, as shown in fig. 30-33, 35, 40, and 42-44, in some embodiments, a warning light 240 is included, the warning light 240 being disposed above, below, to the side of, or integrated with the screen assembly 232. In fig. 31-33, 35, the warning light 240 is integrated into a raised portion of the left portion of the screen assembly 232. In addition, the warning lamp 240 may be integrated on a boss portion protruded on the right portion of the screen assembly 232. In fig. 30, 31, 40, and 43-44, the warning light 240 is disposed at a position of a rim 1322 of the door body 231, above the screen assembly 232. In fig. 42, the warning lamp 240 is integrated on the left side of the screen assembly 232. Of course, the warning light 240 may be disposed at other positions of the pump door 230 and the pump body 210, which is not illustrated herein.
The screen element 232 may have a large screen (e.g., an integral touch screen), and in one embodiment, the screen element 232 may have at least two separate small screens (see fig. 21 and 22). In fig. 21, the screen assembly 232 has two separate small screens 132a, 132 b. In fig. 22, the screen assembly 232 has three separate small screens 132a, 132b, 132 c.
In some embodiments, at least one of the small screens can be selected as a common display screen for displaying information only, and at least one of the small screens can be selected as a touch display screen capable of displaying information and realizing touch control functions, so that the display and touch control functions can be completed under the combination of the small screens. For example, some small screens can be used as the real-time display area 1321b, and some small screens can be used as the touch area 1321 a.
In order to further increase the area of the display region 2321 in the screen element 232, in an embodiment, the screen element 232 adopts the same structure as the screen element 132, see the structures shown in fig. 23 and 24 and the above description, so as to obtain the screen element 232 with extremely narrow widths at the upper and lower sides.
In other examples, the infusion pump may have physical keys 220, and the physical keys 220 may be an emergency stop key 222, a pump unlock key 223, a menu key 224, etc. in addition to a power key 221. These physical keys 220 may be provided on the pump door 230 or on the pump body 210.
Referring to fig. 28, 30-45, in some embodiments, the physical button 220 is disposed on the front surface of the pump door 230, above, below, to the side of, or integrated with the screen element 232. The physical keys 220 integrated with the screen assembly 232 may also be disposed above, below, or to the side of the screen assembly 232.
In one embodiment, some or all of the physical keys 220 are disposed on the screen assembly 232. In particular, the physical keys 220 are mounted on an outer panel (as previously described) of the screen assembly 232.
In a typical touch display screen, the screen itself is made of glass, and it is complicated to add the physical keys 220 on the screen. Therefore, the keys of the touch display screen generally use a touch function, add sound and light, and vibrate to improve the sensitivity of the client of the keys, but the sensitivity of the client cannot achieve the effect of the physical keys 220, and meanwhile, the reliability is not reliable than that of the physical keys 220, and the identifiability is not strong than that of the physical keys 220. The physical keys 220 of some non-touch display screens are difficult to realize that liquid or dirt does not remain on the keys, and although the problem of liquid residue can be solved by a surface pasting mode, the transparent effect of glass is difficult to achieve in the aspect of appearance, and the effect of the touch display screen cannot be achieved.
In this regard, the solid key 220 structure shown in the embodiment of the infusion pump adopts the structure of the solid key 120 shown in fig. 25-27 (see the above description for specific structure), which can solve the problem that the solid key 220 is difficult to be made on glass, and can satisfy the hand feeling of the solid key 220, prevent liquid from entering and facilitate cleaning on the basis of ensuring that the pure screen effect is not affected, and satisfy the requirement of the existing market for disinfection by a cleaning disinfectant.
The present invention has been described in terms of specific examples, which are provided to aid understanding of the invention and are not intended to be limiting. For a person skilled in the art to which the invention pertains, several simple deductions, modifications or substitutions may be made according to the idea of the invention.
