在本发明中,用语「包含」、「包括」、「具有」、「含有」或其他任何类似用语意欲涵盖非排他性的包括物。举例而言,含有多个要件的一元件、结 构、制品或装置不仅限于本文所列出的此等要件而已,而是可以包括未明确列出但却是该元件、结构、制品或装置通常固有的其他要件。除此之外,除非有相反的明确说明,用语「或」是指涵括性的「或」,而不是指排他性的「或」。
本发明的自动注射器的致动组件用于结合装设有药瓶的容置组件,通过致动组件致动药瓶以朝向使用者执行注射操作。请先参考图1及图2,其中图1是本发明的自动注射器的致动组件的***图,图2是本发明的自动注射器的致动组件的示意图。如图1及图2所示,本发明的自动注射器的致动组件10包括致动套筒11、执行套筒12、第一弹性件13、后盖14、推杆15以及第二弹性件16。致动组件10整体对应一个轴线L,使得致动组件10的可移动部件沿着所述轴线L的方向相对于其他部件移动。致动套筒11、执行套筒12、后盖14及推杆15可采用相同或不同的坚固材质制成,例如塑性材料、金属或合金等,而第一弹性件13及第二弹性件16可采用金属或合金制成。在结构设计上,致动套筒11、执行套筒12及推杆15在外观上均类似管状件,使得前述部件的中空部位可供容置相应部件,但本发明不以此为限。
致动套筒11包括通道111及凸缘部112。通道111自致动套筒11的一端贯通至另一端,以供穿设执行套筒12等部件。凸缘部112设置于致动套筒11的外表面,且凸缘部112自外表面凸出足够高度,以供抵接第一弹性件13。
致动套筒11还包括多个沟槽113及多个结合部114。各沟槽113为半开放式沟槽,也就是说,各沟槽113自致动套筒11的一端朝另一端延伸但未抵达另一端。此处多个沟槽113为对称设置的二沟槽,但多个沟槽113的设置数量及位置不以此为限。多个结合部114设置于致动套筒11形成多个沟槽113的相对端,供与前述容置组件连动。此处多个结合部114为对称设置的二凸块,但多个结合部114的设置数量及位置不以此为限。
在本发明的一个实施例中,致动套筒11还包括至少一辅助安装孔115,各辅助安装孔115自致动套筒11的外表面贯通至通道111。至少一辅助安装孔115提供以外部工具辅助穿设执行套筒12的路径。此处至少一辅助安装孔115为对称设置的二开孔,但至少一辅助安装孔115的设置数量及位置不以此为限。
执行套筒12沿着轴线L可移动的穿设于致动套筒11的通道111内。执行套筒12包括对称的二悬臂121,于致动套筒11被致动前后控制推杆的移动与否。各悬臂121基本上沿着轴线L的方向延伸,且各悬臂121的一端连接执行套筒12的主体而形成支点,另一端则为一个悬空端,使其能基于支点摆动而改变与轴线L之间的距离。各悬臂121包括设置于前述悬空端的卡固部1211及外扩部1212,其中卡固部1211朝接近轴线L的方向延伸,而外扩部1212朝远离轴线L及平行轴线L的方向延伸,使得执行套筒12基于垂直轴线L的方向于卡固部1211所在位置的围绕区域具有执行套筒12的最小截面径长,而基于垂直轴线L的方向于外扩部1212所在位置的围绕区域具有执行套筒12的最大截面径长。此处卡固部1211为一个凸块,而外扩部1212则形成一个沿轴线L方向具有尖端外型的结构。
执行套筒12还包括多个卡抵部122。多个卡抵部122设置于执行套筒12的外表面,且多个卡抵部122自外表面凸出足够高度,以供抵接第一弹性件13。在本发明的一个实施例中,当执行套筒12穿设于致动套筒11的通道111内时,执行套筒12的多个卡抵部122穿过多个沟槽113以凸出于致动套筒11的外表面,且当执行套筒12相对于致动套筒11移动时,多个卡抵部122沿着多个沟槽113移动。
在本发明的一个实施例中,执行套筒12还包括多个扣接部123。多个扣接部123设置于结合后盖14的一端,以供扣接后盖14。此处多个扣接部123为对称设置的多个挡块,且各挡块于面向后盖14的一侧形成斜面结构,但多个扣接部123的设置数量及位置不以此为限。多个结合部114设置于致动套筒11形成多个沟槽 113的相对端,供结合前述容置组件。此处多个结合部114为对称设置的二挡块,但多个结合部114的设置数量及位置不以此为限。
执行套筒12还包括多个导引结构124。多个导引结构124置于执行套筒12结合后盖14的一端。此处多个导引结构124为对称设置的二半开放式沟槽,且各沟槽自执行套筒12的端部沿平行轴线L的方向延伸,但多个导引结构124的设置数量及位置不以此为限。
第一弹性件13的两端分别抵接致动套筒11及执行套筒12。在本发明的一个实施例中,第一弹性件13的两端分别抵接致动套筒11的凸缘部112及执行套筒12的多个卡抵部122,且第一弹性件13的截面径长大于套筒11及执行套筒12的外表面的最小截面径长,使得第一弹性件13大致组装于致动套筒11及执行套筒12的外表面。当致动套筒11相对于执行套筒12沿着轴线L的方向移动时,随着致动套筒11的凸缘部112接近执行套筒12的多个卡抵部122而使得第一弹性件13被压缩,反之随着致动套筒11的凸缘部112远离执行套筒12的多个卡抵部122而使得第一弹性件13通过弹性回复力而扩张。
请参考图3是本发明的自动注射器的致动组件的致动套筒穿设执行套筒的剖视图。如图3所示,在本发明的一个实施例中,本发明的自动注射器的致动组件10的致动套筒11还包括至少一止挡结构116。至少一止挡结构116凸设于通道111的表面。此处至少一止挡结构116为一个环状凸起结构,且环状凸起结构与致动套筒11的通道111表面之间会形成对应执行套筒12的穿设方向且可供外扩部1212的尖端卡入的凹陷空间。在结构设计上,致动套筒11的通道111基于垂直轴线L的方向的截面径长小于执行套筒12的最大截面径长(例如执行套筒12的二悬臂121的外扩部1212处所对应的截面径长)。据此,当执行套筒12相对于致动套筒11沿着轴线L方向穿设时,执行套筒12并无法直接通过致动套筒11的通道111,必须先压抵执行套筒12的二悬臂121的外扩部1212以朝轴线L摆动,使得执 行套筒12的最大截面径长不大于致动套筒11的通道111基于垂直轴线L方向的截面径长,再执行穿设操作。接着,当执行套筒12的悬臂121的外扩部1212抵达至少一止挡结构116的位置时,外扩部1212的尖端会卡入至少一止挡结构116与致动套筒11的通道111表面之间形成的凹陷空间,而限制执行套筒12的移动。此时,组装人员必须通过外部工具穿过前述至少一辅助安装孔115并施压于执行套筒12的悬臂121,使得执行套筒12的悬臂121朝接近轴线L的方向移动而缩减执行套筒12的最大截面径长,以利于执行套筒12可穿过至少一止挡结构116而继续完成穿设操作。在前述过程中,悬臂121的外扩部1212的尖端会因为受外力弹离至少一止挡结构116而发出响声,供组装人员确认悬臂121的外扩部1212的尖端是否已脱离前述凹陷空间。
又如图1及图2所示,后盖14结合于执行套筒12的一端。在本发明的一个实施例中,后盖14包括多个扣接件141,且多个扣接件141对应扣接于执行套筒12的多个扣接部123。此处多个扣接件141为对称设置的多个弹臂结构,且各弹臂结构沿平行轴线L方向朝执行套筒12延伸,并于接近执行套筒12的一侧形成沿垂直轴线L方向延伸的弹片,多个扣接件141的设置数量、位置及结构均配合前述执行套筒12的多个扣接部123。当后盖14结合执行套筒12的过程中,多个扣接件141的弹片会沿着多个扣接部123的斜面结构移动,直到多个扣接件141的弹片移动至多个扣接部123的后方。在前述过程中,多个扣接件141的弹片会因为越过多个扣接部123产生弹力撞击执行套筒12而发出响声,供组装人员确认后盖14的多个扣接件141与执行套筒12的多个扣接部123扣接完成。此时,后盖14的多个扣接件141的弹片沿着轴线L方向会受到执行套筒12的多个扣接部123的阻挡而使得后盖14无法沿着轴线L的方向脱离执行套筒12。
后盖14还包括多个对应导引结构142。此处多个对应导引结构142为对称设置的二凸条,且各凸条沿平行轴线L方向朝执行套筒12延伸,多个对应导引结构 142的设置数量、位置及结构均配合前述执行套筒12的多个导引结构124。当后盖14结合执行套筒12的过程中,通过后盖14的多个对应导引结构142配合套筒12的多个导引结构124,使得后盖14与执行套筒12能保持沿平行轴线L的方向结合。
此外,在本发明的一个实施例中,后盖14还包括供第二弹性件16穿设且定位的定位件143。此处定位件143为单一的杆状件,且杆状件沿平行轴线L方向朝执行套筒12延伸。
推杆15主要用以推动容置组件内的药瓶的柱塞。推杆15沿着轴线L可移动的穿设于执行套筒12内。在本发明的一个实施例中,推杆15包括二凹槽151,二凹槽151的设置位置及结构配合前述执行套筒12的二悬臂121的卡固部1211。推杆15内部设有通道贯穿推杆15的两端,且于推杆15两端形成不同大小的开口。推杆15于远离后盖14的一端形成第二弹性件16无法通过的较小开口。
第二弹性件16的两端分别抵接后盖14及推杆15。在本发明的一个实施例中,第二弹性件16的一端穿设于后盖14的定位件143以抵接后盖14,第二弹性件16的另一端则自推杆15的一端穿入推杆15内并抵接到推杆15远离后盖14的另一端。第二弹性件16的截面径长大于后盖14的定位件143的截面径长,但小于推杆15内通道的截面径长。当本发明的自动注射器的致动组件10经组装完成后,执行套筒12会限制住推杆15的移动,使得第二弹性件16呈被压缩状态。而当执行套筒12被致动套筒11致动而解除针对推杆15的移动限制后,推杆15即会通过第二弹性件16的弹性回复力推抵推杆15移动。
致动套筒11相对于执行套筒12沿着轴线L方向移动,使得执行套筒12随着致动套筒11的凸缘部112接近执行套筒12的多个卡抵部122而使得第一弹性件13被压缩,反之随着致动套筒11的凸缘部112远离执行套筒12的多个卡抵部122而使得第一弹性件13通过弹性回复力而扩张。
本发明的自动注射器的致动组件10于组装过程中,是先将执行套筒12穿设于致动套筒11的通道111内,且此时将第一弹性件13夹设于执行套筒12及致动套筒11之间;接着,将后盖14结合于执行套筒12的一端。处理完前述程序后,将致动套筒11相对于执行套筒12沿着轴线L方向移动而压缩第一弹性件13,使得执行套筒12的二悬臂121通过通道111并外露于致动套筒11远离后盖14的一端,接着将推杆15及第二弹性件16穿设于执行套筒12内,并使第二弹性件16呈被压缩状态。最后,将致动套筒11相对于执行套筒12沿着轴线L方向反向移动至未压缩第一弹性件13的原位置,此时执行套筒12的二悬臂121会被限制于致动套筒11的通道111内,且各悬臂121的卡固部1211会对应卡入推杆15的凹槽151,进而限制推杆15的移动。据此,完成本发明的自动注射器的致动组件10的组装。
当本发明的自动注射器的致动组件10的致动套筒11被致动而相对于执行套筒12沿着轴线L方向移动,导致第一弹性件13逐渐被压缩时,致动套筒11会解除对执行套筒12的悬臂121的限制,使得悬臂121朝远离轴线L的方向弹移,此时悬臂121的卡固部1211会脱离推杆15的凹槽151,因此推杆15通过已压缩的第二弹性件16被致动而朝向远离后盖14的方向移动。
本发明的自动注射器用于装设并注射药瓶。请参考图4至图6,其中图4是本发明的自动注射器的***图,图5是本发明的自动注射器的示意图,图6是本发明的自动注射器的容置组件的***图。如图4至图6所示,本发明的自动注射器1包括如前所述的致动组件10及容置组件20。容置组件20结合于致动组件10外露推杆15的一端,且容置组件20包括外壳体21、药瓶套筒22以及针盖23。容置组件20整体同样对应轴线L,使得容置组件20的可移动部件沿着所述轴线L相对于其他部件移动。外壳体21、药瓶套筒22及针盖23可采用相同或不同的坚固材质制成,例如塑性材料、金属或合金等。在结构设计上,外壳体21、药瓶套筒22 及针盖23在外观上均类似管状件,使得前述部件的中空部位可供容置相应部件,但本发明不以此为限。
外壳体21包括多个扣接孔211及检视孔212。多个扣接孔211可供后盖14的多个扣接件141扣接,使得致动组件10通过后盖14与容置组件20的外壳体21彼此固定。前述各扣接件141于弹片朝外的一侧设有凸起的扣接结构,使得致动组件10沿轴线L方向朝容置组件20结合的过程中,各扣接件141的扣接结构通过弹臂的作用卡入扣接孔211内,进而因为弹力撞击外壳体21而发出响声,供组装人员确认后盖14的多个扣接结构与外壳体21的多个扣接孔211卡合完成。此时,致动组件10的后盖14即可固定于容置组件20的外壳体21。检视孔212可供使用者确认药瓶30的注射状态。
药瓶套筒22结合于外壳体21以供装设药瓶30。药瓶套筒22包括检视部221,检视部221设置于药瓶套筒22的外表面,且药瓶套筒22自外表面凸出足够高度,使得药瓶套筒22通过检视部221固定于外壳体21的检视孔212。在本发明的一个实施例中,药瓶套筒22至少针对检视部221可采用透明材质制成,以利于使用者通过检视部221检视药瓶30。
针盖23穿设于外壳体21,且针盖23的一部分外露于外壳体21的一端。针盖23可相对于外壳体21及药瓶套筒22移动,且通过针盖23的移动可致动致动套筒11。针盖23包括滑槽231及多个对应结合部232。在本发明的一个实施例中,当药瓶套筒22穿设于针盖23内时,药瓶套筒22的检视部221穿过滑槽231而卡固于外壳体21的检视孔212,且当针盖23相对于药瓶套筒22移动时,检视部221会于滑槽231内移动。多个对应结合部232设置于针盖23邻近致动组件10的一端,供针盖23朝致动组件10移动后能引导致动套筒11的多个结合部114与多个对应结合部232相结合,使得针盖23与致动套筒11产生连动。此处多个对应结合部232为配合多个结合部114对称设置的二开放孔。
在本发明的一个实施例中,容置组件20还包括垫环24。垫环24设置于药瓶套筒22邻近致动组件10的一端,使得药瓶30装设于容置组件20的药瓶套筒22内时,通过垫环24可作为药瓶30的装设及注射缓冲件。
此外,在本发明的一个实施例中,容置组件20还包括延长部件25及盖体26。延长部件25设置于容置组件20结合致动组件10的相对端,且延长部件25固定于药瓶套筒22。盖体26则用以封闭容置组件20的外壳体21结合致动组件10的相对端,使得本发明的自动注射器1在尚未使用的状态下,通过盖体26可避免误触外露于外壳体21的针盖23。
本发明的自动注射器1于组装过程中,是先将药瓶30装设于容置组件20的药瓶套筒22内,且此时容置组件20的盖体26封闭外壳体21外露针盖23的一端;接着,将致动组件10结合于容置组件20的另一端。据此,完成本发明的自动注射器1的组装。
以下可配合图1至图6所示,当使用者欲使用本发明的自动注射器1时,首先自外壳体21取下盖体26,使得针盖23外露;接着,将本发明的自动注射器1以外露针盖23的一端抵住欲注射的身体部位,并手握外壳体21朝皮肤施力,使得针盖23朝外壳体21向内移动。此时,针盖23于邻近致动组件10的一端会推抵致动套筒11,致使致动套筒11被致动而相对于执行套筒12沿着轴线L方向移动,第一弹性件13逐渐被压缩。移动后的致动套筒11会解除对执行套筒12的悬臂121的限制,使得悬臂121朝远离轴线L的方向弹出,致使悬臂121的外扩部1212弹击针盖23而发出喀拉响声,提示用户注射程序已启动,符合医疗法规的标准。接着,悬臂121的卡固部1211会脱离推杆15的凹槽151,因此推杆15在无干扰的状态下通过已压缩的第二弹性件16被致动而朝向药瓶30移动,进而推动药瓶30内的柱塞以驱使药剂朝针头部位输出。当注射完成后,使用者将本发明的自动注射器1 自身体部位移开,此时致动套筒11通过第一弹性件13的弹性回复力回到原位,并带动针盖23移动而再次外露于外壳体21以隐蔽药瓶30的针头部位。
虽然本发明的实施例揭露如上所述,然并非用以限定本发明,任何熟习相关技艺者,在不脱离本发明的精神和范围内,举凡依本发明权利要求所述的形状、构造、特征、方法及数量当可做些许的变更,因此本发明的专利保护范围须视本说明书所附的权利要求范围所界定者为准。
