  • Patent number: 6657545
    Abstract: An automatic detecting and prewarning system for medicine instiller mainly includes a clamp for easily clamping on a flow-indicating cylinder of the medicine instiller, detecting means of an electronic sensor type mounted on the clamp, alarm means connected to the detecting means via a conductor, and a drop carrier pivotally connected to a lever to locate in the flow-indicating cylinder below a medicine dropper. After a fixed number of drops or flow per minute is set for the medicine instiller and input to the alarm means, medicine drops fallen from the medicine dropper one by one impact on and reciprocatingly sway the drop carrier to intermittently cut off the detecting means as a control signal to the alarm means. When an abnormal number of drops or flow per minute continues for a preset time, the alarm means is automatically enabled to emit warnings.

  • Patent number: 6337631
    Abstract: An automatic infusion-monitoring instrument includes a clip adapted to clamp a flow-indicating cylinder of an infusion set corresponding to a liquid level in the cylinder that keeps unchanged when there is sufficient amount of infusion liquid in the infusion set, a floater pre-disposed in the flow-indicating cylinder to move upward and downward along with the liquid level in the flow-indicating cylinder, a detecting unit having an emitter and a receiver mounted in the clip to normally face the floater, and an alarm unit electrically connected to the detecting unit via a conducting wire. When the liquid level in the flow-indicating cylinder lowers so that the floater is moved to locate below the emitter and the receiver and no longer blocks the wave emitted by the emitter, the alarm unit is actuated to emit sound, voice, light or flash as a warning signal of running-out infusion liquid.
