Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of medical equipment, in particular to a multifunctional full-automatic colloidal gold detector. BACKGROUND
[0002] Colloidal gold method is that chloroauric acid (HAuCl4) can be polymerized into gold particles of certain size under the action of reducing agents such as white phosphorus, ascorbic acid, sodium citrate, tannic acid, etc., and become a stable colloidal state due to electrostatic interaction, forming a hydrophobic colloidal solution with negative charge. Because of the electrostatic interaction, it becomes a stable colloidal state, so it is called colloidal gold. Colloidal gold is also an ideal immunolabel in immunoelectron microscopy.
[0003] Most of the existing colloidal gold detection equipment is automatic equipment, but the function is relatively single. In the whole colloidal gold detection process, including sample drop diluent, sample mixing, sample adding to reagent card, reagent card incubation, reagent card detection and other steps, only the last step of reagent card detection is instrument detection, and other steps are manual operation. In comprehensive large hospitals, or in the high incidence season of infectious diseases, the manual workload is huge, and any operation error in the previous steps will affect the detection result. Therefore, to achieve the accuracy of detection, manual operation steps should be avoided as much as possible, which can reduce the risk of operation error and greatly reduce the workload of doctors and improve work efficiency.
[0004] Patent document CN209542625U discloses a colloidal gold detector, which comprises a sample inlet unit, an image collector, a screen display unit, a data processing unit and a control unit. The sample inlet unit comprises a colloidal gold detection card, a detection card fixator and a servo stepping motor. The detection card fixator is a hollow frame structure, and the colloidal gold detection card can be fixed on the detection card fixator and the bottom of the colloidal gold detection card is provided with a protrusion. The servo stepping motor rotates and drives the colloidal gold detection card to move under the image collector. A detection card groove is also provided below the image collector, and a groove matched with the protrusion on the colloidal gold detection card is provided on the detection card groove. A trigger sensor is arranged in the groove, and the sensor is connected with the data processing unit and the control unit. The control unit is connected with and controls the servo stepping motor and the image collector. However, this design does not design the steps of sample drop diluent, sample mixing, sample adding to reagent card, reagent card incubation, etc. In actual detection, the detection efficiency and detection quality cannot be guaranteed.

[0212] Specifically, as shown in Figure 1 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 5 The sample rack 4 comprises a sample rack base 32 and a sample tube carrier 33. The sample tube carrier 33 is connected with the sample rack base 32 through a plurality of connecting ribs.

[0213] Specifically, as shown in Figure 1 、 Figure 11As shown, the incubation mechanism 400 comprises a reagent card conveying mechanism, a support plate 41, and an incubation bin 60. The support plate 41 is provided with a support plate 50, which comprises, in sequence from the direction close to the incubation bin 60, a discarding position 42, a second feeding position 43, a detection position 44, a sample adding position 45, and an incubation position 46, wherein the incubation position 46 extends into the interior of the incubation bin 60. The reagent card conveying mechanism comprises a conveying hook 47, which is installed on the support plate 50 and can move between the discarding position 42 and the incubation position 46 under the driving of the reagent card conveying mechanism. According to the detection order of the reagent card 51, the second feeding position 43 takes out the reagent card 51 into the sample adding position 45, and after the detection sample is added dropwise on the sample adding position 45, the reagent card 51 enters the incubation position 46, and after incubation at a rated temperature for 10 minutes, the reagent card 51 enters the detection position 44 for photographic detection, and finally enters the discarding position 42 to discard the sample.
[0214] Further, as shown in Figure 1 、 Figure 11 、 Figure 12 As shown, the second feeding position 43 is provided with a lifting plate 48 and a first power assembly 49. The reagent card 51 is placed on the lifting plate 48 by a first mechanical arm. The number of the lifting plate 48 is two, and the two lifting plates 48 are placed on the two sides of the conveying hook 47. The lifting plate 48 can move between a first position and a second position under the driving of the first power assembly 49. When the lifting plate 48 moves the reagent card 51 to the first position, the conveying hook 47 moves to the second feeding position 43 under the driving of the reagent card conveying mechanism. At this time, the lifting plate 48 moves to the second position under the driving of the first power assembly 49. The reagent card 51 enters the working range of the conveying hook 47. The conveying hook 47 can drive the reagent card 51 to pass through the detection position 44, the sample adding position 45, and enter the incubation position 46 in sequence. In a preferred example, the first power assembly 49 is driven by a motor, and the conveying hook 47 is in the shape of a I-shaped structure. The left and right sides of the conveying hook 47 form a first accommodating space and a second accommodating space, respectively. When the two reagent cards 51 are placed in the first accommodating space and the second accommodating space, respectively, the conveying hook 47 can push the reagent card 51 to move between the discarding position 42 and the incubation position 46. In a variant, the first power assembly 49 is driven by a pneumatic cylinder.
[0215] Specifically, as shown in Figure 1 、 Figure 11 、 Figure 12 The lifting of the reagent card 51 is realized by a lifting mechanism mainly composed of a lifting motor and a lifting plate 48 in the second feeding position 43. The main function is to first lift the reagent card 51, so that the conveying hook 47 enters Figure 12The reagent card 51 is then lowered on both sides of the conveying hook 47, so that the conveying hook 47 can take the reagent card 51 from the second feeding position 43 to the sample adding position 45. The upper lifting plate 48 is raised to lift the remaining reagent card 51 to the first position, which can leave a passage below the upper lifting plate 48 to facilitate the conveying hook 47 to pass through the upper lifting plate 48 from below to enter the discarding position 42 for discarding. Alternatively, the conveying hook 47 can enter the incubation position 46 for the next reagent card 51 taking work. It should be noted that the cooperation between the conveying hook 47 and the upper lifting plate 48 must follow the process to avoid collision. In a preferred embodiment, a detection device is further included, which can detect the movement position of the upper lifting plate 48 and transmit the detection information to the upper computer to control the movement of the conveying motor 52 and avoid collision between the conveying hook 47 and the upper lifting plate 48. Figure 1
[0216] Specifically, as shown in Figure 1 、 Figure 11 、 Figure 13 The incubation bin 60 is internally provided with an incubation bin 70, which includes two incubation sub-bins and the two incubation sub-bins are respectively arranged on both sides of the incubation bin 70 along the width direction of the support plate 50. The incubation sub-bins include a plurality of incubation layer positions, which are equidistantly arranged in the incubation sub-bins in the up-down direction. The conveying hook 47 entering the incubation position 46 can further drive the reagent card 51 incubated on another incubation layer position to move to the detection position 44 for detection, and then finally transport the detected reagent card 51 to the discarding position 42 for discarding.
[0217] Further, as shown in Figure 13 The incubation bin 60 includes an incubation bin shell 68 and an incubation motor 69. The incubation bin 70 is installed inside the incubation bin shell 68. The inner wall of the incubation bin shell 68 is provided with a first sliding rail in the height direction. The incubation bin 70 is provided with a sliding block matched and installed on the first sliding rail. The incubation motor 69 is installed above the incubation bin shell 68 and is provided with an incubation driving rod 71 extending through the top of the incubation bin shell 68 into the interior of the incubation bin shell 68 and connected with the incubation bin 70. The incubation position 46 is provided with an incubation position through hole. When the incubation motor 69 operates, the incubation driving rod 71 can be driven to move upward or downward, thereby driving the incubation bin 70 to move upward or downward through the incubation position through hole under the guidance of the first sliding rail.
[0218] Further, as shown in Figure 1 、 Figure 11 、 Figure 13 As shown, the incubation site 46 is mainly driven by the incubation motor 69 to lift and lower the incubation material bin 60, and after the reagent card 51 is delivered to the sample adding site 45 by the delivery hook 47, the reagent card 51 is directly delivered to the incubation material bin 60 by the delivery hook 47, and then the two incubation sub-bins on the incubation material bin 60 are lowered by one level synchronously, that is, the incubation layer site drives the reagent card 51 after sample adding to be lowered by one level, at this time, there are two cases, in one case, the upper incubation layer site stores the reagent card 51 which has been incubated, at this time, the reagent card 51 falls on both sides of the delivery hook 47, and when the delivery hook 47 is moved out of the incubation material bin 60, the incubated reagent card 51 is taken out and then moved to the detection site 44 to be photographed by the camera, and then moved to the discarding site 42 to discard the reagent card 51. In another case, the upper incubation layer site is empty, that is, there is no reagent card 51 stored, then the delivery hook 47 moves back to the second feeding site 43 to take the next reagent card 51, and then the sample adding site 45 adds sample and then delivers to the incubation layer site for incubation operation, and so on, to ensure the continuity of the incubation operation.
[0219] The incubation bin 70 of the present application adopts a lifting structure to ensure that the whole incubation bin is kept at a constant temperature at a rated temperature, and adopts a symmetrical structure to place one incubation sub-bin on the left and one on the right, which can increase the throughput of detection. While the first reagent card 51 after sample adding is directly moved to the incubation sub-bin to wait for 10 minutes for detection, the reagent card delivery mechanism can continue to take out the next reagent card 51 from the feeding site 2 to add sample and then move to the incubation bin 70. In a preferred example, 15 incubation layer sites are designed in one incubation sub-bin, which can ensure that 15 samples are sequentially moved in for incubation, and the work is carried out in a pipeline manner, that is, one in and one out to achieve continuous detection.
[0220] Specifically, as shown in Figure 1 、 Figure 11 、 Figure 13 、 Figure 14 The reagent card delivery mechanism includes a delivery guide rod 57, a second transmission carrier 58 and a second power assembly, the object table 41 further includes a third support leg 62 and a fourth support leg 63, the third support leg 62 and the fourth support leg 63 are respectively installed at both ends of the lifting plate 48, the two ends of the delivery guide rod 57 are respectively installed on the third support leg 62 and the fourth support leg 63 and are arranged below the lifting plate 48, the second transmission carrier 58 is provided with a transmission carrier through hole, the lower end of the second transmission carrier 58 is sleeved on the delivery guide rod 57 through the transmission carrier through hole and can slide relative to the delivery guide rod 57, the upper end of the second transmission carrier 58 is connected with the delivery hook 47, and the second power assembly can drive the second transmission carrier 58 to slide along the direction of the delivery guide rod 57 and simultaneously drive the delivery hook 47 to slide above or below the lifting plate 48.
[0221] Further, as shown in Figure 1 、 Figure 11 、 Figure 13 、 Figure 14 , the second power assembly comprises a transmission motor 52, a third synchronous belt 53, a first driving synchronous wheel 54, a fourth synchronous belt 55, a driven synchronous wheel 56, an upper computer and a second driving synchronous wheel 61; one end of the third synchronous belt 53 is connected with the transmission motor 52, the other end of the third synchronous belt 53 is sleeved on the first driving synchronous wheel 54, one end of the fourth synchronous belt 55 is sleeved on the second driving synchronous wheel 61, the other end of the fourth synchronous belt 55 is sleeved on the driven synchronous wheel 56 and one side of the fourth synchronous belt 55 is connected with a second transmission carrier 58; the first driving synchronous wheel 54 and the second driving synchronous wheel 61 are respectively installed on two ends of a connecting shaft and the connecting shaft is rotatably installed on a support 59; when the transmission motor 52 rotates, the third synchronous belt 53 can drive the first driving synchronous wheel 54 to rotate, and in turn the second driving synchronous wheel 61 can be synchronously rotated and drive the other end of the fourth synchronous belt 55 to move around the driven synchronous wheel 56, at this time the second transmission carrier 58 moves with the fourth synchronous belt 55.
[0222] Specifically, the transmission motor 52 is provided with an encoder, and the encoder is electrically connected with the upper computer. The reagent card conveying mechanism mainly comprises a synchronous wheel driven by the transmission motor 52, and a synchronous belt moved by the synchronous wheel. The conveying hook 47 is connected with the synchronous belt, so that the conveying hook 47 can be moved to any position with the rotation of the motor. It should be noted that the transmission motor 52 is a closed-loop stepping motor with an encoder, and the position of the conveying hook 47 can be obtained by the encoder and transmitted to the upper computer and recorded in the database. In the case of power failure or equipment failure caused by various unknown factors, the position of the conveying hook 47 can be obtained from the database, which facilitates the logical relationship between the second feeding position 43, the incubation position 46 and the conveying hook 47 in subsequent operation, and avoids errors.
[0223] It should be pointed out that the cooperation between the reagent card conveying mechanism and the incubation bin lifting mechanism, and the cooperation between the reagent card conveying mechanism and the second feeding position 43 lifting mechanism are the keys. Since the reagent card conveying mechanism transports the reagent card 51 in the horizontal direction, and the incubation bin 70 and the second feeding position 43 transport the reagent card 51 in the vertical direction, improper control at the intersection can easily cause card plate, impact and other phenomena. Therefore, the incubation motor 69 is also connected with the upper computer signal, and the upper computer performs logical judgment on the obtained position of the conveying hook 47 and forms a control relationship with the incubation motor 69, so as to ensure the reliability of movement connection. At the same time, the program can feedback where the fault occurs in time when the accident occurs.
[0224] Specifically, as shown in Figure 12As shown, the middle part of the support plate 50 is provided with a rectangular hole along the length direction, and the upper end of the second transmission carrier 58 passes through the rectangular hole and is connected with the transmission hook 47 and can drive the transmission hook 47 to move along the direction of the rectangular hole.
[0225] Specifically, as shown in the figure, Figure 12 The discard position 42 is provided with two discard through holes, which correspond to the positions of the first and second accommodation spaces in the vertical direction. When the transmission hook 47 drives the tested reagent card 51 to move to the position of the discard through hole, the reagent card 51 falls from the discard through hole and is discarded and recycled.
[0226] Specifically, as shown in the figure, Figure 11 , Figure 12 The two sides of the second feeding position 43 along the length direction of the support plate 50 are respectively provided with a first limiting plate 64 and a second limiting plate 65, which are respectively installed on the support plate 50 and are respectively provided with a first gap and a second gap between the support plate 50. The first gap and the second gap are the passages of the transmission hook 47 when moving on the support plate 50. The second feeding position 43 is provided with a first lifting hole and a second lifting hole, and the first lifting hole and the second lifting hole are respectively arranged on the two sides of the rectangular hole. The number of the lifting plates 48 is two, and the two lifting plates 48 can synchronously move between the first position and the second position through the first lifting hole and the second lifting hole, and can move in the space between the first limiting plate 64 and the second limiting plate 65 when the two lifting plates 48 move above the support plate 50. The first limiting plate 64 and the second limiting plate 65 play a limiting and guiding role for the movement of the lifting plate 48, and are also beneficial to the stable movement of the lifting plate 48.
[0227] Specifically, as shown in the figure, Figure 11 , Figure 13 The detection position 44 is provided with a darkroom 66 and a camera 67. The camera 67 is installed on the support plate 50 through the darkroom 66. The darkroom 66 is installed on the support plate 50 and is provided with a third gap between the support plate 50.
