Definitions
- the present invention relates to a lancet. More particularly, the present invention relates to a lancet used for blood collection. The present invention also relates to a puncture device equipped with a lancet.
- Such a puncture device is generally composed of a lancet (for example, Patent Document 1) provided with a puncture needle for piercing a predetermined part of the body and an injector.
- the injector has a function of firing the lancet toward a predetermined location. In use, after a lancet is loaded into an injector, the lancet is fired using a plunger in the injector to puncture a predetermined location.
- the lancet is used after the cap covering the needle tip is removed, but the needle tip may be bent when the cap is removed. Specifically, a load is applied to the needle tip due to a “triggering operation” performed to remove the cap, and the puncture needle may be bent or broken. Thus, when removing the lancet cap, the puncture needle may be damaged, and an improvement is desired.
- FIG. 14 shows the appearance of the lancet assembly 100 ′
- FIG. 15 shows the appearance of the injector 200 ′.
- the lancet assembly 100 ' includes a lancet 101' and a protective cover 102 '.
- the lancet 101 ′ includes a lancet body 104 ′, a lancet cap 106 ′, and a puncture needle 105 ′.
- the metal puncture needle 105 ' exists across the resin lancet body 104' and the lancet cap 106 '.
- the tip of the puncture needle 105 ' is covered with a lancet cap 106', and the lancet cap 106 'and the lancet body 104' are joined together via a weakening member 108 '.
- the protective cover 102 ′ is provided so as to surround a part of the lancet body 104 ′.
- An injector 200 'shown in FIG. 15 is a device that can be used in combination with the lancet assembly 100' to fire the lancet body with the tip of the puncture needle 105 'exposed.
- the injector 200 ' has a "plunger 204' that can be engaged with the rear end of the lancet body and that fires the lancet body in the puncturing direction" (see FIG. 18).
- the lancet assembly 100' is inserted from the front end opening 214 'of the injector 200'.
- FIG. 20 shows the injector 200 ′ with the plunger retracted and the firing energy accumulated.
- the lancet cap 106 ′ is removed to expose the tip of the puncture needle 105 ′.
- the removal of the lancet cap 106 ' will be described as follows. As shown in FIGS. 16 and 17, the lancet body 104 ′ and the lancet cap 106 ′ are integrally coupled by a weakened portion 108 ′ positioned therebetween. Such weakening member 108 ′ can be broken by turning the lancet body 104 ′ and the lancet cap 106 ′ in the opposite directions around the puncture needle (FIG. 20 shows a mode of turning in the G direction. Thereby, the lancet cap 106 'can be removed.
- the front end opening 214 'of the injector 200' is applied to a predetermined portion to be punctured, such as a fingertip, and then the press portion 542 'of the trigger member 514' is pushed (see FIG. 21).
- the press portion 542 ' By pressing the press portion 542 ', the plunger 204' is fired forward (that is, the compressed spring is released), and puncture is performed by the puncture needle.
- the puncture needle when puncturing with the launched puncture needle, it is desirable that the puncture needle surely strikes a predetermined location.
- the puncture needle if the puncture needle is bent, the pain felt by the blood collection subject at the time of puncture is increased. Therefore, it is desired that the puncture needle is not bent and the puncture trajectory is as straight as possible.
- the puncture needle may be bent during the lancet cap removal operation, and it is difficult to secure a straight puncture trajectory.
- an object of the present invention is to provide a lancet in which the puncture needle is prevented from being damaged as much as possible when the lancet cap is removed.
- Puncture member A lancet having a lancet body and a lancet cap
- the puncture member extends across the lancet body and the lancet cap so that the tip of the puncture member is covered with the lancet cap, while the body of the puncture member is covered with the lancet body
- a lancet is provided in which a body groove of the puncture member is provided with a circumferential groove or a circumferential projection, and the puncture member is rotatable about its axial direction.
- the lancet according to the present invention is characterized in that the puncture member body extending within the lancet body is rotatable about its axial direction. This prevents damage to the puncture member when removing the lancet cap.
- the distal end portion of the puncture member receives an external force, and the external force can rotate the puncture member as a whole about its axial center. That is, in the present invention, even though the body portion of the puncture member is provided so as to be enclosed by the lancet body, the body portion of the puncture member is not fixed to the lancet body. As a result, the puncture member can be suitably rotated when the lancet cap is removed, and the puncture member is prevented from being bent or broken.
- the term “circumferential direction” substantially means an annular direction around the central axis (a line along the longitudinal direction) of the puncture member. Accordingly, the “circumferential groove” has a concave shape that is recessed along the annular direction on the outer peripheral surface of the puncture member body, while the “circumferential protrusion” is raised along the annular direction on the outer surface of the puncture member body. It has a convex shape.
- the tip of the puncture member has a blade shape.
- a “separation operation” ie, an operation to separate the lancet cap and the puncture member from each other
- the “circumferential groove” or “circumferential protrusion” of the member functions suitably. Specifically, when the lancet cap is pulled away from the tip of the puncture member, the “circumferential groove” or “circumferential protrusion” functions as a stopper, and the trunk of the puncture member does not fall out of the lancet body.
- the lancet body and the lancet cap are integrally formed, and the lancet cap and the lancet body are in a state of being connected to each other at their contact points.
- the lancet cap and the lancet body are connected to each other via the “contact portion”. Therefore, the contact portion connecting the lancet cap and the lancet body is destroyed during the “rotating operation” or “detaching operation” of the lancet cap.
- the contact portion is broken, the lancet cap can be separated from the lancet body, so that a state where the tip is exposed by the puncture member can be obtained.
- no silicone oil or the like is provided between the puncture member body and the lancet body, and the puncture member body is in direct contact with the lancet body within the lancet body. . That is, when removing the lancet cap, the puncture member rotates with the puncture member body portion in direct contact with the lancet body. This means that in the lancet of the present invention, the puncture member can be rotated by overcoming the frictional resistance generated between the puncture member body and the lancet body.
- the puncture device in the present invention, not only a lancet but also a puncture device using the lancet is provided. That is, a device for using the lancet for actual use is also provided.
- the puncture device according to the present invention may have any form / configuration as long as it can fire the puncture member.
- the puncture device of the present invention comprises a lancet, an injection spring, a trigger member, and a lancet holder that accommodates them.
- the trigger member has a pair of arms provided inside the lancet holder,
- the injection spring is attached to the lancet body, and the lancet body is locked to the arm part of the trigger member so that the compression state of the injection spring is maintained before puncturing,
- the trigger member can be pushed into the lancet holder, and a pair of arm portions are bent by the pushing of the trigger member, and the locking of the lancet body is released.
- a puncture device when the lock of the lancet body is released, the “fired lancet body having an exposed puncture member (tip portion)” is fired in the puncture direction due to the extension of the compressed injection spring. be able to.
- a slope portion is provided on the inner wall of the lancet holder (especially the inner wall surface on the rear side of the holder), and the arm portion is slid and bent when the trigger member is pushed. It is supposed to be.
- the term “deflection” here substantially means all kinds of modes in which the arm portion is displaced in the space in the lancet holder.
- the arm part is bent means that the arm part is displaced outward in the lancet holder, in particular, the arm part is outward in a direction in which the tip parts of the pair of arm parts are separated from each other. It refers to the mode of opening.
- the puncture member can rotate as the lancet cap is removed. Thereby, most of the force exerted on the puncture member at the time of removal is changed to the rotational force of the puncture member, so that damage to the puncture member such as bending or bending can be prevented. In particular, if the bending of the puncture member is prevented, the trajectory of the puncture member becomes substantially linear, and as a result, the pain felt by the puncture subject (that is, the blood sample) can be reduced. This is not limited to a specific theory, but is considered to be caused by a phenomenon that the puncture site of the blood sample is “squeezed out” by the puncture needle.
- the puncture device provided with the lancet of the present invention, the “puncture” of the puncture member is prevented, and a puncture tip portion in a substantially constant exposed state can be obtained. Therefore, even if the users are different, the puncture trajectory of the puncture member becomes substantially constant, and variations among users are reduced.

- the puncture member 150 is a metal member, for example.
- the lancet body 130 and the lancet cap 170 are, for example, resin members.
- the puncture member 150 extends over the lancet body 130 and the lancet cap 170, and the tip portion 152 of the puncture member is covered with the lancet cap 170, while the trunk portion of the puncture member 156 is enclosed by the lancet body 130.
- the lancet body 130 and the lancet cap 170 are integrally coupled through a few contact points 160.
- the distal end portion 152 of the puncture member 150 preferably has a blade shape (in other words, the puncture member is preferably a “blood type”).
- the “blade form” referred to in the present specification is referred to based on blade (sword), and substantially means a form in which an edge is sharpened by at least one surface.
- the body 156 of the puncture member is provided in the lancet body 130, it is preferably provided so as to penetrate the lancet body 130 as shown in FIGS.
- the term “inclusion” as used in the present specification refers to a mode in which the body portion 156 of the puncture member is provided so as to be wrapped in contact with the lancet body 130, but the body portion of the puncture member is particularly preferable. 156 points out the aspect extended so that the inside of a lancet body might be penetrated.
- the body 156 of the puncture member 150 is provided so as to be wrapped in contact with the lancet body 130, but the body 156 is not fixed to the lancet body 130.
- the body 156 of the puncture member 150 is provided in the lancet body 130, the body 156 and the lancet body 130 are not bonded to each other, and therefore, the body 156 of the puncture member 150 is externally applied. Can rotate around its axial direction.
- the circumferential groove 158 In the body portion 156 of the puncture member, at least one circumferential groove 158 is provided.
- the circumferential groove 158 has a concave shape that is recessed along the annular direction on the outer peripheral surface 156a of the puncture member body (if another expression is used, It can also be said that the portion 156 is provided with a “slit”.
- the circumferential groove 158 is inherent in the lancet body 130 and is provided so as to be in direct contact with the lancet body portion.
- the distal end portion 152 of the puncture member is a portion used for puncture when using the lancet. That is, it is a portion that pierces the puncture site of the person to be punctured.
- the tip of the puncture member is covered with a lancet cap 170 in terms of hygiene and safety. Therefore, the term “coating” in the present specification substantially means a mode in which the tip 152 of the puncture member is covered with the lancet cap 170 so that there is no problem in terms of hygiene and safety. Yes.
- the lancet cap 170 itself preferably has a form suitable for its removal. For example, as shown in FIG. 1, the tip portion 172 has a flat shape, and can be easily picked up by a fingertip and rotated.
- the lancet 100 of the present invention is often used while being partially housed in a lancet holder described below, and therefore has a small size.
- the overall length L 3, as shown in FIG. 2 may be 12.0 ⁇ 26.0 mm (e.g., about 18 mm).
- the body portion 156 of the puncture member preferably has a cylindrical shape, and the diameter D is preferably 0.3 mm to 1.8 mm, more preferably 0.9 to 1.8 mm, and still more preferably 1. It is 4 to 1.6 mm (for example, about 1.5 mm) (see FIG. 2).
- the material of the lancet body and the lancet cap may be one usually used as a lancet resin such as polyethylene or polypropylene, but is preferably at least selected from the group consisting of low density or high density polyethylene, polystyrene and elastomer. One or more soft resins.
- the metal material of the puncture member 150 may be one normally employed as a lancet puncture needle, for example, stainless steel.
- the main feature of the lancet of the present invention is that the puncture member is rotatable around its axial direction.
- the puncture member can rotate about its axial direction.
- the puncture member 150 can rotate as the lancet cap 170 is removed. That is, when the lancet cap 170 is rotated in the direction of the arrow A shown in the drawing, the puncture member 150 is similarly rotated along the direction of the arrow A. This is because the body 156 of the puncture member 150 is provided so as to be wrapped in contact with the lancet body 130, but the body 156 is not fixed to the lancet body 130.
- the puncture member 150 rotates in accordance with the cutting operation when the lancet cap 170 is removed, damage to the puncture member such as bending or bending of the distal end portion is prevented.
- a twisting force is applied to the lancet cap along with the cutting operation, but the puncture member present therein resists As a result, a force against the twist is generated, and the lancet cap is eventually broken.
- a force for rotational movement acts on the distal end portion 152 of the puncture member along with the cutting operation, while a force against the force acts on the trunk portion 156 of the puncture member.
- the distal end portion 152 of the puncture member is bent, and when the force exceeds a certain threshold value, the distal end portion 152 is also broken.
- the tip portion 152 of the puncture member has a blade shape
- the force applied to the tip portion 152 of the puncture member in association with the cutting operation increases, and the “break” of the lancet cap or the tip portion 152 of the puncture member It is easy to cause “bending” and “breaking”.
- the rotational force at the time of cutting is preferably used in reverse, so that “break of the lancet cap” or “bending of the puncture member” Is preventing.
- the pulling operation is performed in addition to the rotation operation of the cap 170.
- the body portion of the puncture member does not come out of the lancet body 130. That is, the body 156 of the puncture member 150 is prevented from being removed from the lancet body 130 even though the body 156 is not fixed to the lancet body 130.
- the circumferential groove 158 is inherent in the lancet body 130 as described above, the concave shape of the circumferential groove 158 provides “resistance”, and the body portion 156 of the puncture member 150 is prevented from being detached. That is, when the lancet cap is pulled away from the distal end portion of the puncture member, the circumferential groove functions as a stopper, so that the puncture member body portion does not fall out of the lancet body.
- the form is not limited to the “groove form”, and other forms are possible.
- a “flange shape” may be used.
- a circumferential protrusion 158 ' may be provided on the body of the puncture member. That is, the convex part which protruded along the annular direction may be provided in the outer peripheral surface 156a of the puncture member trunk
- the circumferential protrusion 158 ′ and the lancet body 130 are engaged with each other, the circumferential protrusion 158 ′ preferably functions as a stopper when the lancet cap is pulled away from the tip of the puncture member. As a result, the puncture member body does not fall out of the lancet body.
- the dimensions of the circumferential groove 158 or the circumferential protrusion 158 ′ are not particularly limited as long as they function as a stopper in the operation of pulling the lancet cap.
- the width dimension wa may be 0.2 to 3.0 mm (for example, about 1 mm)
- the depth dimension da is 0.1 to 3.0 mm. It may be 1.0 mm (eg about 0.5 mm).
- the width dimension wb may be 0.2 to 3.0 mm (for example, about 1 mm), and the height dimension hb is 0.
- the depth dimension da of the circumferential groove 158 since the strength of the puncture member body portion decreases if it is increased more than necessary, at least 25% of the diameter dimension D of the body portion does not exceed, that is, da ⁇ It is preferably D ⁇ 0.25.
- the circumferential groove 158 or the circumferential projection 158 ′ not only functions as a stopper when the lancet cap is pulled apart, but also has an effect of assisting the rotational movement of the puncture member.
- This can be easily understood by assuming a puncture member in which the circumferential groove 158 and the circumferential protrusion 158 'are not provided. In actual rotation operation of the lancet cap, some force is generated to separate the lancet cap and the puncture member from each other. However, in the case where the circumferential groove 158 and the circumferential protrusion 158 ′ are not provided, FIG.
- the circumferential groove 158 or the circumferential protrusion 158 ' has an advantageous effect not only when the lancet cap is removed but also when puncturing after removing the cap. Specifically, when the circumferential groove 158 and the circumferential projection 158 ′ are provided, the puncture member is prevented from being detached, so that the puncture member 150 remains at the site of the person to be punctured after the puncture. Is prevented. In addition, since the relative positional relationship between puncture member body 156 and lancet body 130 does not shift, a predetermined puncture depth can be reliably realized during puncture.
- the puncture member rotates around its axial direction without causing a relative positional relationship between the body 156 and the lancet body 130 due to the circumferential groove 158 or the circumferential projection 158 ′. Since it can move, the vibration at the time of puncture can be reduced. That is, at the time of puncturing, the tip of the puncture member may vibrate so that it undulates. At that time, the rotational motion of the puncture member can absorb the undulating energy. Therefore, it can be said that the circumferential groove 158 or the circumferential protrusion 158 'indirectly contributes to the improvement of the linearity of the puncture trajectory at the time of puncture.
- FIGS. 4A to 4D Change over time when removing the lancet cap
- FIGS. 4A to 4D changes with time when the lancet cap is removed will be described.
