Abstract

A nozzle cleaning method, a nozzle cleaning device, and an automatic analyzer, in which a dispensing nozzle for drawing and discharging liquid is reliably cleaned. The nozzle cleaning method has a first cleaning step for cleaning the outer wall surface of the dispensing nozzle at a time after liquid is drawn and before the liquid is discharged, and also has a second cleaning step for cleaning at least the inner wall surface of the dispensing nozzle after the liquid is discharged. The nozzle cleaning device (6) includes a cleaning tank (60) having at its upper part an opening (60a) in which thedispensing nozzle is inserted; a cleaning liquid supply device (61) for jetting, in the upper part in the cleaning tank, cleaning liquid; a containing section (62) provided at a position that is in the cleaning tank and is in a region below the cleaning liquid jetted by the cleaning liquid supply device (61), having at its upper part an opening (62a) into which the dispensing nozzle is inserted,and having the cleaning liquid contained in it; and a cleaning liquid supply device (63) for supplying the cleaning liquid to the containing section.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a nozzle cleaning method, a nozzle cleaning device, and an automatic analysis device for cleaning a dispensing nozzle for sucking and discharging liquid. Background technique [0002] Conventionally, automatic analyzers that analyze samples such as blood or urine are equipped with nozzle cleaning devices that clean dispensing nozzles in order to avoid carryover. The above state is applied to the sample dispensed later, which affects the analysis result. This nozzle cleaning device is configured to supply the cleaning liquid to the dispensing nozzle, which is disposed in the middle of the movement track of the dispensing nozzle between the position where the sample is sucked and the position where the sample is discharged. In the nozzle cleaning method using the nozzle cleaning device, after the sample is sucked and discharged to complete the dispensing, the dispensing nozzle is moved to the position of the nozzle clean...
