  • Patent number: 8109960
    Abstract: A patient's skin puncturing device according to the present invention is built of a body and of seated therein a pricking needle assembly and of a push-button arranged in the upper portion of the body. Between the push-button and the pricking needle assembly at least two driving springs are arranged. The driving springs are connected by upper ends with the push-button provided with a pushing face. Between the body and the pricking needle assembly at least two return springs are disposed, which are connected with the body. The pricking needle assembly has a driving face cooperating with the pushing face of the push-button, and in the upper portion has wings which upper surfaces cooperate with the driving springs of the push-button and which lower surfaces cooperate with the return springs, and has outer projections cooperating with inner projections with which the body is provided.

  • Patent number: 8052707
    Abstract: A patient's skin puncturing device, particularly for collecting a blood sample for diagnostic purposes, including a housing, a lancet slidably positioned inside the housing and having a body with a sheathed puncturing needle seated therein, and a push button positioned at the one end of the housing. Between a face end of the push button and the lancet body a drive spring is placed, and between the other end of the housing, which is provided with an opening for the puncturing needle, and the lancet body a return spring is placed. Between the housing and the lancet body is placed a lancet actuation lock, preferably in the form of interlocks of a washer. The device has a drive spring catch, preferably in the form of grabs of the washer, to preclude the drive spring from following the lancet in the puncture phase and in the retraction phase of the lancet.
