The present application relates to an apparatus for eliciting a blood sample. The apparatus has a housing having an aperture. A shaft extends in the housing and a testing member is mounted on the shaft which rotates with the shaft. A lancing member is pivotably mounted to the testing member and a lancet protrudes from the lancing member. The lancing member is arranged to pivot relative to the testing member from a retracted position to a skin penetrating position in which the lancet extends into or through the aperture when the testing member is rotated so that the lancing member is coincident with the aperture.本申請案係有關一用於引出一血液樣本之裝置。該裝置具有一擁有一開孔之殼體。一軸係延伸於殼體中,且一測試構件安裝在軸上,其隨軸作旋轉。一刺切構件可樞轉地安裝至測試構件,且一刺血針從刺切構件突出。刺切構件係配置以相對於測試構件從一縮回位置樞轉至一皮膚穿刺位置,其中當測試構件旋轉時刺血針延伸進入或經過開孔故使刺切構件重合於開孔。105‧‧‧開孔105A‧‧‧開孔105的邊緣106‧‧‧匣204‧‧‧長形軸309‧‧‧刺血針702‧‧‧突件708‧‧‧血液分析物測量部件714‧‧‧韌性構件718‧‧‧刺切構件723‧‧‧匣106的內表面
