Abstract

A blood collecting device collects blood in a short time after puncture without scattering the blood into the open air other than a container for collecting the blood. One of representative blood collecting devices has a container unit that includes a screw portion, a holder that holds the container unit serving as a system whose one end is closed, a puncture unit that can be attached to the container or the holder, a through-hole of the puncture unit, and a puncture unit protection member that protects the puncture unit and the container unit.

Claims (29)

1. A blood collecting device comprising:

a container unit that has an opening portion and a closing portion, and that holds the opening portion in a state where the opening portion faces upward;

a fixing unit that fixes a blood collecting target in a state where the blood collecting target faces the opening portion;

a pressure changing unit that pressurizes the blood collecting target or applies negative pressure into a space surrounded by the blood collecting target and the container, or that performs both of these in combination with each other;

a puncture unit that is positioned below the container unit, and that punctures the blood collecting target after pressure is changed by the pressure changing unit; and

a lid that closes the opening portion of the container containing blood,

wherein the container unit has a slide mechanism which slides with respect to the fixing unit in a horizontal direction.

2. The blood collecting device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the pressure changing unit includes a sphygmomanometer which serves as a compression body for pressurizing the blood collecting target by using pneumatic pressure, and which measures blood pressure while pressurizing the blood collecting target by using the compression body.

3. The blood collecting device according to claim 2 , further comprising:

a pressurizing source that pressurizes the blood collecting target so that the blood pressure obtained by the sphygmomanometer is in a range of the lowest blood pressure to the highest blood pressure.

4. The blood collecting device according to claim 1 , further comprising:

a cover that protects the blood collecting target after blood collecting.

5. The blood collecting device according to claim 1 ,

wherein all of the container unit, the fixing unit, and the puncture unit are configured to be separable from each other.

6. The blood collecting device according to claim 1 , further comprising:

a blood collecting amount confirmation mechanism which confirms an amount of the blood contained inside the container unit.

7. The blood collecting device according to claim 1 ,

wherein at least a portion of the container unit has a transparent window.

8. A blood collecting device comprising:

an upper disk that has at least one through-hole;

a lower disk that is positioned below the upper disk, and that is rotatable independent of the upper disk;

a negative pressure source that applies negative pressure to a surrounding environment of a blood collecting target pressed against the through-hole;

a puncture unit that is fixed to the lower disk, and that punctures the blood collecting target after pressure is changed by a pressure changing unit; and

a container unit that has an opening portion and a closing portion, and that is fixed to the lower disk in a state where the opening portion faces upward.

9. The blood collecting device according to claim 8 ,

wherein the container unit and the puncture unit are detachably fixed to the lower disk.

10. The blood collecting device according to claim 8 ,

wherein at least a portion of the container unit has a transparent window.
