2. Description of Related Art

Conventional biochemical test strips may usually be disposed in containers, wherein a center of each container may have room, a top of the container may have a cover body, and the biochemical test strip is disposed in the room of the container, such that the biochemical test strip is isolated from the outside. To increase the moistureproof effect, moistureproof grains can be filled in the cover body for generating a moisture absorption effect. Thus, the biochemical test strip is prevented from be failed due to the moisture.

However, the moistureproof grains are disposed in the cover body, not only the moisture under the room is not absorbed efficiently to cause the poor moistureproof effect, but also the biochemical test strip is not easily taken out.

DESCRIPTION OF THE EXEMPLARY EMBODIMENTS

Referring to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the present disclosure provides a method for manufacturing a moistureproof unit, at least comprising: preparing a carrier 11: a shape the carrier 11 is a sheet; and coating a moistureproof layer 12: prepared hydrophilic polymer material is uniformly distributed on the carrier 11, and a plurality of water absorption units 121 being semicircular are formed on a surface of the carrier 11. Specifically, coating the moistureproof layer 12 can be processed by a spraying manner as shown in FIG. 1, and the water absorption units 121 of the moistureproof layer 12 can be irregularly distributed and coated on the carrier 11; or alternatively, as shown in FIG. 2, coating the moistureproof layer 12 can be processed by a dispensing manner, and in accordance to the design, the water absorption unit 121 is regularly and uniformly coated on the carrier 11.

Referring to FIG. 3 through FIG. 7, a height H of the water absorption unit 121 is 0.2 mm through 0.6 mm, preferably 0.25 mm through 0.5 mm, and optimally 0.3 mm; a diameter R of the water absorption unit 121 is 0.3 mm through 1.2 mm, preferably 0.5 mm through 0.9 mm, and optimally 0.6 mm; a distance D between the two neighboring water absorption units 121 is between 0.17 mm through 0.57 mm; and a grain weight of the water absorption unit 121 is 0.011 g through 0.013 g. In the embodiment, material of the water absorption unit is light-hardening resin with a viscosity being 16000 through 24000 (25° C., S14 10 RPM, CPS), a specific weight being 1.1 (25° C.) and a PH value being 1.21, wherein each of the water absorption units 121 formed by using a dispensation of a piezoelectric nozzle has a height H being 0.3 mm, a diameter R being 0.6 mm and a grain weight being 0.012 g, and a distance D between the two neighboring water absorption units 121 is 0.37 mm. In addition, further referring to FIG. 3, the distance D is formed between the two neighboring water absorption units 121, and the distance D is 0.17 mm through 0.57 mm. The diameters R of the water absorption units 121 shown in FIG. 4 and FIG. 5 are the same one, and the heights H of the water absorption units 121 shown in FIG. 4 and FIG. 5 are the same one. As shown in FIG. 6, the water absorption units 121 may be formed to have different diameters R. As shown in FIG. 7, the water absorption units 121 may be formed to have different heights H. That is, the water absorption units 121 may be formed to have different parameters according to actual requirements.

Referring to FIG. 8 through FIG. 10, when the moistureproof units 10 are used, a container body 20 may have a room 21, wherein one side of the room 21 has an opening 22, a periphery of the room 21 has a side wall 211 surrounding the periphery of the room 21, and a bottom of the room 21 has a bottom wall 212, and the biochemical test strip 30 is accommodated in an interior of the room 21. Referring to FIG. 8, the biochemical test strip is selected from one of a blood glucose test strip, a uric acid test strip, a urine test strip, a lactic acid test strip and a cholesterol test strip.

The cover body 40 is configured to cover the opening 22, so as to make the room 21 be closed. The moistureproof unit 10 at least comprises the carrier 11, wherein a side of the carrier 11 has the moistureproof layer 12, and another side of the carrier 11 has an adhesion layer 13. The moistureproof layer 12 has the semicircular water absorption units 121 coated and disposed on the carrier 11. The moistureproof unit 10 is configured to make the adhesion layer 13 be adhered to the side wall 211 of the room 21. As shown in FIG. 7, the adhesion layer 13 is adhered to the whole or partial periphery of the side wall 211, such that the moistureproof layer 12 is disposed on the surface of the room 21. In addition, the adhesion layer 13 of the moistureproof unit 10 is disposed on the side of the moistureproof unit 10, and as shown in FIG. 9, the moistureproof unit 10 is rolled to have a spiral shape. The moistureproof unit 10 is adhered to the bottom of the cover body 40, and when the cover body 40 covers the container body 20, the moistureproof unit 10 is floated in the room 21. Furthermore, referring to FIG. 10, the cover body 40 may also have a connection rib 41 coupled to the container body 20, so as to prevent the cover body 40 from being lost.

Moreover, referring to FIG. 11 and FIG. 12, the container body 20 is formed by jointing the two packaging sheets 23, and specifically, the two packaging sheets 23 are stacked up and down. A periphery of the packaging sheets 23 has a thermocompression part 231 surrounding the periphery of the packaging sheets 23. The room 21 being closed is formed between the packaging sheets 23 and the thermocompression part 231. The biochemical test strip 30 is accommodated in an interior of the room 21. A side of the carrier 11 has an adhesion layer 13 being adhered to the packaging sheets 23, another side of the carrier 11 has the moistureproof layer 12 disposed in the room 21.

To further illustrate features of structures, utilized means and expected and achieved results of the present disclosure, the utilization of the present disclosure are described as follows. It is believed that the person with the ordinary skill in the art can understand the details of the present disclosure based upon the descriptions of the present disclosure.

Referring to FIG. 8 through FIG. 10, when the biochemical test strip 30 is disposed in the room 21, the moistureproof units 10 on the periphery of the room 21 can generate the moisture absorption effect. Since the moistureproof units 10 are adhered to the side wall 211, regardless that moisture is located at the position which the room 21 is neighboring to the opening 22 or the bottom wall 212, the moistureproof units 10 still have the great moisture absorption effect. In addition, since the semicircular water absorption units 121 are distributed on the whole moistureproof layer 12 of the moistureproof unit 10, the maximum moisture absorption area is used for absorbing the moisture, and the moisture absorption effect is enhanced. Further, since the moistureproof units 10 are adhered before accommodating the biochemical test strip 30, the moisture absorption performed before accommodating the biochemical test strip 30 is prevented, and the utilization efficiency can be increased.

Moreover, referring to FIG. 11 and FIG. 12, the biochemical test strip 30 is surrounded by the packaging sheets 23, so as to have a great sealing effect. Incorporated with the inner moistureproof units 10, even when the thermocompression part 231 has a gap via which the moisture can enter, the moistureproof units 10 can still have efficient moisture absorption effect, so as to ensure the effect of the biochemical test strip 30.

To sum up, the moistureproof unit and moistureproof container structure for accommodating the biochemical test strip provided by the present disclosure have not been anticipated by publications or used in public, which meet patentability of the invention. Examination of the present disclosure is respectfully requested, as well as allowance of the present disclosure.

The above-mentioned descriptions represent merely the exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, without any intention to limit the scope of the present disclosure thereto.
