Blood test device
First Claim
1. A blood test apparatus that punctures skin and analyzes a property of blood exuding from the skin, comprising:
- blood sensors that each have a storing section for storing the blood exuding from the skin;
a conveying unit that is configured to convey a blood sensor from a first position to a second position where the blood is to be stored in the storing section;
a holding unit that is configured to hold the blood sensor in the second position;
a puncturing unit that is configured to puncture the skin while the blood sensor is held in the second position; and
a housing having an opening part comprising the second position, the housing having a cover which is configured to open and close the opening part;
wherein the cover is configured to close the opening part such that a shutter between the first position and the second position closes so as to prevent the blood sensor disposed in the first position from being conveyed to the second position, andwherein the cover is configured to open the opening part such that the shutter opens so as to allow the blood sensor disposed in the first position to be conveyed to the second position.

Abstract
A blood test device (21) ensuring successful measurement wherein fingers scarcely slip out from the blood test device and blood never sticks to other sites in the course from the puncture of the patient'"'"'s skin to the completion of the blood test. This blood test device (21) comprises a cartridge (24) in which sensors (23) pooling blood oozing out from the punctured skin are stored in a layered state, a transport unit transporting a single sensor sheet (23) from the inside of the cartridge (24) to the outside, a holder (25) holding the transported sensor (23), a laser emitting unit (26) puncturing the skin in the state where the sensor (23) is held by the holder (25), and a pump (28) keeping the inside of the holder (25) and the inside of the cartridge (24) under negative pressure.
