A pharmaceutical injection device may comprise a main body case having a cartridge holder, a piston that pushes out the pharmaceutical of a pharmaceutical cartridge held in the cartridge holder, a light emitting component, a light receiving component, and a controller. The light emitting component may shine light of different colors on the pharmaceutical cartridge disposed in the cartridge holder. The light receiving component receives light that has been shined from the light emitting component onto the pharmaceutical cartridge and reflected by the pharmaceutical cartridge. The controller may shine from the light emitting component and identify the type of pharmaceutical cartridge.

Pharmaceutical injection device, and method for controlling pharmaceutical injection device

A pharmaceutical injection device includes a main body case, a cartridge holder, a latching receiver, a driver, and a manipulation component. The cartridge holder has a holding space and a holder latching component. The holding space is capable of holding a pharmaceutical cartridge. The latching receiver is configured to latch or release the holder latching component according to whether the cartridge holder is closed or open. The driver is configured to automatically release a latching of the latching receiver and the holder latching component. The manipulation component is configured to manually release the latching of the latching receiver and the holder latching component by moving the latching receiver upon being subjected to external pressure. The driver or the manipulation component is configured to release the latching between the latching receiver and the holder latching component.

Pharmaceutical injection device

The pharmaceutical injection device of the present invention comprises a cartridge holder, a main case, a piston, a motor, an opening component, an open/closed detection switch, and a controller. The motor drives the piston in either an insertion direction in which the piston is inserted into a pharmaceutical cartridge, or a pull-out direction in which the piston is pulled out of the pharmaceutical cartridge. The opening component opens the cartridge holder in conjunction with the movement of the piston in the pull-out direction. The open/closed detection switch detects whether the cartridge holder is open or closed. When the open/closed detection switch detects that the cartridge holder is open, the controller controls the motor so as to stop the piston.

A pharmaceutical injection device may comprise a main body case in the interior of which a pharmaceutical syringe can be mounted; a drive means that is provided inside the main body case and pushes out the pharmaceutical inside the pharmaceutical syringe through a syringe needle; a cover that opens and closes an opening on the side of the main body case where the syringe needle is mounted; an outside air temperature sensor that measures a first temperature, which is the temperature outside the main body case; a display component; and a controller that controls the drive means and the display component and acquires the first temperature at predetermined intervals. When the cover is closed, the controller causes the display component to display information about the storage state of the pharmaceutical in the mounted pharmaceutical syringe on the basis of the first temperature.

Pharmaceutical injection device, and pharmaceutical management system

It is an object to provide an information recording medium with which information symbols can be suitably read. This information recording medium comprises a sheet-form member, a plurality of information symbols that are displayed on the surface of the sheet-form member and each have the same information, and an edge line that is provided at one end and/or the other end of the sheet-form member and allows an information reading device which reads the information symbols to recognize the end of the sheet-form member.

It is an object to provide an information recording medium with which information symbols can be suitably read. This information recording medium comprises a sheet-form member (), a plurality of information symbols () that are displayed on the surface of the sheet-form member () and each have the same information, and an edge line () that is provided at one end and/or the other end of the sheet-form member () and allows an information reading device which reads the information symbols () to recognize the end of the sheet-form member ().

A wireless blood glucose meter is a battery-powered apparatus to communicating wirelessly with a portable terminal, and includes a blood glucose level detector that measures a blood glucose level, a transmitter that transmits the blood glucose level measured by the blood glucose level detector to the portable terminal, a receiver that receives a response signal sent from the portable terminal in response to the transmission of the blood glucose level by the transmitter to the portable terminal, and a voltage monitor that monitors the output voltage of the battery. A transmission control circuit changes the transmission method used by the transmitter on the basis of the output voltage of the battery as detected by the voltage monitor.

Biological sample measurement apparatus

A wireless blood glucose meter () has a blood glucose level detector (), a transmitter (), a receiver (), a storage component (), and a transmission power determiner (). Whether or not an acknowledge signal has been received and the transmission power when the transmitter () has transmitted a blood glucose level are stored as history information in the storage component (), and the transmission power determiner () determines the transmission power when the transmitter () transmits on the basis of the history information stored in the storage component ().

Biological sample measurement apparatus and biological sample measurement system equipped with same

Provided is a handset comprising a transceiver transmitting and receiving data to and from a base, a data error detector determining whether or not there is an error in the data received by the transceiver, and a reception duration controller changing a specific reception duration. If the data error detector determines that there is an error, then the reception duration controller extends a reception duration of the transceiver so as to receive the data newly sent from the base and to reduce unnecessary calling repetitions between the base and the handset and reduce wasted waiting time.
