LANCING DEVICES

摘要

A lancing device comprises a main body having a drive spring, hammer, trigger mechanism and a lancet holder (22). A lancet (34) may be pushed to engage in snap fit with forwardly extending arms (28) of the lancet holder. Whilst free to move axially, the lancet (36) is held against rotation and, following use, is released from the lancet holder by rotating the lancet holder to disengage the lancet from the forwardly extending arms (28) thus freeing the lancet.
