  • Patent number: 9066696
    Abstract: The present invention provides a sensor insertion and removing device which is user-friendly and which does not cause infection. The sensor insertion and removing device has a sensor; a puncture blade member; a housing which houses the sensor and the puncture blade member; a guide part which is provided within the housing and which glidably supports the puncture blade member; a puncture blade operating part which inserts the sensor under the skin by causing the puncture blade member to glide along the guide part integrally with the sensor, upon delivering the puncture blade member outside the housing to puncture the skin, and which causes the puncture blade member to glide along the guide part in a state of being separated from the sensor, upon removing the puncture blade member from under the skin into the housing, and a sensor operating part which pulls out the sensor from under the skin and removes it from under the skin into the housing.

  • Publication number: 20120035441
    Abstract: A mount unit 10 is used for fixing, to a living body, a sensor 20 of which a portion 20a can be placed under the skin of the living body. The mount unit 10 includes a main body portion 11 that holds a placement of the portion of the sensor 20 under the skin of the living body and two or more holding portions 12a to 12d attached to the main body portion 11. Each of the holding portions 12a to 12d includes an adhesive material layer 13 capable of adhering to the living body and is movable so as to allow for selection between a state in which the adhesive material layer 13 is in contact with the living body and a state in which the adhesive material layer 13 is separate from the living body.
