  • Publication number: 20230077308
    Abstract: A drug injection control device allows a structure in which a piston rod moving with a rod guide makes a linear motion to stably inject a drug set through a dose dial. When an injection amount of drug is preset through an injection amount setting module configured to make a rotational motion with the dose dial in a housing to set the amount of drug to be injected by storing the twisting moment in a torsion spring, in actuating a drug delivery module switchably coupled to the injection amount setting module by an injection button on top of the drug injection control device, the rod guide is connected to the inside of the piston rod through a reset tube movably coupled to the injection button to allow a sub-linear motion of the piston rod.

  • Publication number: 20230072979
    Abstract: A drug injection control device includes a housing, a dose dial rotatably coupled to the housing, a cartridge holder coupled to an opposite side of the housing, an injection button, a spring base non-rotatably coupled to the housing, an injection amount setting module to set an amount of the drug to be injected by storing a twisting moment in a torsion spring in the housing, and a drug delivery module to deliver a drug from the cartridge embedded in the cartridge holder by moving through the release of the twisting moment. The spring base includes a ratchet to engage with ratchet protrusions in the dose dial during the rotation of the dose dial, and feedback on the set injection amount of the drug is provided through generating a sound by sequential contact between the ratchet and the ratchet protrusions radially formed along a radial direction on the dose dial.

  • Publication number: 20230074677
    Abstract: A drug injection control device has a structure in which a rod lock screw-coupled to an outer circumferential surface of a piston rod can only make a linear motion under restricted rotation in a rod holder with the rotation of a rod guide and the sub-linear motion of the piston rod. When an injection amount of drug is preset through an injection amount setting module configured to make a rotational motion with a dose dial in a housing to set the amount of drug to be injected by storing the twisting moment in a torsion spring, a button plate is fixed and positioned in the dose dial to perform a function of supporting a button spring, and an injection button is slidably coupled through the button plate, so the injection button rotates simultaneously with the rotation of the dose dial, but allows a stable pushing operation through the button plate.

  • Publication number: 20220135479
    Abstract: The present invention provides a concrete vacuum tube segment for a hyper-speed transportation system using ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) and a manufacturing method thereof. A concrete vacuum tube segment for a hyper-speed transportation system can be easily manufactured using UHPC, in which shrinkage and structural cracking do not occur due to mixing a binder and a short fiber to secure airtightness on the basis of a maximum fill theory, and accordingly, shrinkage of the concrete vacuum tube segment can be reduced even in a partial-vacuum state in which the magnitude of drying shrinkage is very small and quick drying occurs; when mixing the UHPC, an antifoaming agent is mixed and a circular vacuum pump is used to remove generated entrapped air to minimize the entrapped air; and a capsule-type crack healing material, which is able to repair fine cracks, is compacted to secure airtightness of the concrete vacuum tube segment.
