Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of medical device technology, and in particular to a sample tube opening device and a sample tube scheduling device. Background Technology
[0002] In biochemical sample testing, the efficiency and safety of sample tube opening are crucial aspects. Traditionally, sample tube opening is done manually by testing personnel. When dealing with large batches of sample tubes, manual opening is labor-intensive and inefficient. Therefore, various tube opening devices have emerged on the market, primarily using mechanical structures to open and close the sample tube caps, replacing manual operation. This reduces the workload for testing personnel while improving the efficiency and safety of test tube opening and closing.
[0003] Currently, some capping devices on the market require manual gripping of the tube body, with the machine opening the cap by increasing friction. This type of capping machine requires manual effort to overcome the friction generated during the opening process, and when testing a large number of tubes, the labor intensity is high, and the human hand is prone to slipping, making it difficult to guarantee smooth opening of the sample tube caps. Therefore, some automated capping equipment has also appeared on the market, enabling pre-testing preparation through inspection lines. These automated capping devices include at least a sample tube gripping device, a tube clamping mechanism, and a sample tube capping device. Currently, some manufacturers use a solenoid valve-driven linkage structure to rotate the capping device's grippers, resulting in a complex structure and high manufacturing difficulty; others use a gear and rack structure, which has a high mechanical failure rate, generates significant noise, and may also result in cap loss.

[0052] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 2This invention provides a sample tube opening device, including a Z-axis mechanism 1 and an opening mechanism 2 mounted on the Z-axis mechanism 1. The Z-axis mechanism 1 is used to drive the opening mechanism 2 to move down to the sample tube opening / closing position. The opening mechanism 2 clamps and rotates the sample tube cap to open it. After opening, the Z-axis mechanism 1 drives the opening mechanism 2 to move the cap up to the waiting position. When closing the cap, the Z-axis mechanism 1 drives the opening mechanism 2 to move down to the opening / closing position with the cap, rotates to close the cap, and then moves up to the waiting position, thus completing the opening / closing process of the current sample tube.
[0053] Combination Figure 3 and Figure 4 The opening mechanism 2 of this embodiment will be described in detail below:
[0054] The opening mechanism 2 includes: a support base 21, a push rod motor assembly 22, a rotary motor assembly 23, a push rod assembly 24, an elastic slide rod assembly 25, and a gripper assembly 26;
[0055] The support base 21 is mounted on the Z-axis mechanism 1. The Z-axis mechanism 1 drives the support base 21 to move up and down in the height direction, thereby driving the entire opening mechanism 2 to move up and down in the height direction, so as to move down to clamp the sample tube and then move up to take it out.
[0056] The rotary motor assembly 23 is mounted on the support base 21; the gripper assembly 26 and the elastic slide bar assembly 25 are both mounted on the bottom of the rotary motor assembly 23. The gripper assembly 26 can perform gripping movement in the horizontal direction, and the elastic slide bar assembly 25 can move up and down in the height direction. The elastic slide bar assembly 25 is slidably connected to the gripper assembly 26, and when the elastic slide bar assembly 25 moves down in the height direction, it is linked to the gripper assembly 26 to perform gripping movement to achieve gripping of the sample tube cap. The rotary motor assembly 23 is used to drive the elastic slide bar assembly 25 and the gripper assembly 26 to perform rotational movement.
[0057] The push rod motor assembly 22 is mounted on the support base 21; the top of the push rod assembly 24 is connected to the output end of the push rod motor assembly 22, and the bottom of the push rod assembly 24 extends through to the bottom of the rotary motor assembly 23 and is rotatably connected to the elastic slide rod assembly 25. The push rod motor assembly 22 is used to push the push rod assembly 24 to move downward and to drive the elastic slide rod assembly 25 to move downward elastically compressed.
[0058] The Z-axis mechanism 1 is equipped with a barcode scanner 11. When the sample tube is removed from the opening mechanism 2, the rotary motor assembly 23 drives the gripper assembly 26 to rotate and rotates the sample tube, so that the barcode scanner 11 can scan and identify the barcode on the sample tube.
[0059] Understandably, the process of clamping the sample tube cap is as follows: First, the Z-axis mechanism 1 drives the entire cap opening mechanism 2 to move down to the sample tube opening / closing position and makes the gripper assembly 26 correspond to the sample tube cap to be clamped. Then, the push rod motor assembly 22 pushes the push rod assembly 24 down and drives the elastic slide rod assembly 25 to move downward elastically, thereby driving the gripper assembly 26 to clamp in the horizontal direction and clamp the sample tube cap.
[0060] Understandably, the process of opening the sample tube cap is as follows: after the gripper assembly 26 clamps the sample tube cap, the rotary motor assembly 23 drives the gripper assembly 26 to rotate along the opening direction of the cap. The friction between the gripper assembly 26 and the cap can be used to rotate the cap out of the sample tube, thus completing the opening. The Z-axis mechanism 1 then drives the cap opening mechanism 2 to move the cap up to the waiting position for waiting.
[0061] Understandably, after the sample tube has been sampled and returned to the opening / closing position, the closing process is the reverse of the opening process. The Z-axis mechanism 1 drives the opening mechanism 2 to move the cover down to the opening / closing position. Then, the rotary motor assembly 23 drives the gripper assembly 26 to rotate along the closing direction of the tube cover, thus closing the cover. Then, the push rod motor assembly 22 pulls upward and drives the push rod assembly 24 and the elastic slide rod assembly 25 to move upward, thereby driving the gripper assembly 26 to open horizontally, thus releasing the tube cover. Finally, the Z-axis mechanism 1 drives the opening mechanism 2 to move upward to the waiting position to wait for the next opening / closing.
[0062] In this embodiment, the push rod motor assembly 22 is linked to the push rod assembly 24 and the elastic slide rod assembly 25 to form a fixed shaft type up and down push-pull structure, so as to realize the clamping and releasing of the pipe cover, and the rotary motor assembly 23 directly drives the gripper assembly 26 to rotate to realize the rotary opening and closing of the pipe cover. It has the advantages of simple structure and convenient assembly.
[0063] It should be noted that two opening mechanisms 2 can be provided in this embodiment. The two opening mechanisms 2 can be integrally assembled through a support base 21. The two opening mechanisms 2 can be symmetrically distributed or distributed at right angles. The exposed structures of the two opening mechanisms 2 can avoid interference by staggering their vertical distribution, thereby making the two opening mechanisms 2 more compact. It can be understood that two barcode scanners 11 can be provided for corresponding barcode scanning and identification for the two opening mechanisms 2.
[0064] For ease of understanding, the structure of a single opening mechanism 2 will be described in detail below.
[0065] Combination Figure 5 As shown, the push rod motor assembly 22 in the cover opening mechanism 2 is described in detail below:
[0066] In some embodiments, the push rod motor assembly 22 includes a push rod motor base 221, a push rod motor 222, a spring 223, and a pull ring 225; the push rod motor base 221 is mounted on a support base 21; the front end of the push rod motor 222 is mounted on the push rod motor base 221 facing downward, and the output shaft of the front end of the push rod motor 222 can be pushed and pulled downward; the spring 223 is fitted on the output shaft of the push rod motor 222; the pull ring 225 is mounted on the output shaft of the push rod motor 222, and the top of the push rod assembly 24 is connected to the pull ring 225 to realize the downward pushing and pulling movement with the output shaft of the push rod motor 222.
[0067] In this embodiment, the push rod motor base 221 can be an L-shaped plate. One side of the push rod motor base 221 is fixedly mounted on the support base 21 with screws, and an opening is opened on the other side of the push rod motor base 221. The front end of the push rod motor 222 is fixedly mounted on the other side of the push rod motor base 221 with its front end facing downward, and the output shaft of the front end of the push rod motor 222 extends downward from the opening. The spring piece 223 is fitted onto the output shaft of the push rod motor 222 and has a certain buffering effect when the push rod motor 222 is pushed down. The cylindrical surface at the bottom of the pull ring 225 is milled flat to facilitate clamping and tightening with tools to lock the structure on the output shaft of the push rod motor 222. After the top of the push rod assembly 24 is connected to the pull ring 225, the push rod assembly 24 can be pushed downward with the output shaft of the push rod motor 222, thereby pushing the elastic slide rod assembly 25 downward elastically compressed and connecting with the gripper assembly 26 to perform clamping work.
[0068] In some embodiments, the push rod motor assembly 22 further includes a position baffle 224 fitted onto the output shaft of the push rod motor 222; an opening / closing identification optocoupler 211 is mounted on the support plate (see reference ). Figure 3 When the output shaft of the push rod motor 222 pushes downward and drives the push rod assembly 24 and the elastic slide rod assembly 25 to move downward, it drives the gripper assembly 26 to clamp in the horizontal direction until the position baffle 224 moves downward into the opening and closing identification optocoupler 211 and triggers the stop movement, thus completing the clamping of the gripper assembly 26.
[0069] In this embodiment, the position baffle 224 can be fitted onto the output shaft of the push rod motor 222 after the spring piece 223, and then the spring piece 223 and the position baffle 224 are locked onto the output shaft of the push rod motor 222 by the pull ring 225; through the cooperation of the position baffle 224 and the opening and closing recognition optocoupler 211, when the output shaft of the push rod motor 222 is pushed downward, the opening and closing recognition optocoupler 211 can identify the Z-direction position of the position baffle 224, thereby identifying the Z-direction movement stroke of the push rod motor 222, and thus controlling the opening and closing size of the gripper assembly 26.
[0070] Combination Figure 4 , Figure 6 and Figure 7The push rod assembly 24 in the cover opening mechanism 2 is described in detail below:

[0074] In this embodiment, an angular contact bearing 2423 is first installed in the central circular hole of the bearing housing 2424, then a push rod 2422 is inserted into the central circular hole of the bearing housing 2424, and then another angular contact bearing 2423 is installed.

The second synchronous pulley 236 is mounted on the cylindrical surface of the step designed at the upper end of the guide rod mounting base 237. The synchronous belt 235 is fitted onto the first synchronous pulley 234 and the second synchronous pulley 236.
[0078] In this embodiment, multiple limiting bosses can be designed on the support base 21, and grooves that cooperate with the limiting bosses on the support base 21 can be designed on the fixing plate 231 to increase the installation accuracy of the fixing plate 231. The rotary motor base 232 can be an inverted U-shaped structure. The bottom of the rotary motor base 232 is installed on the two side edges of one end of the fixing plate 231. Two grooves are designed on the two side edges of one end of the fixing plate 231, and the width of the protrusion in the middle is consistent with the inner width of the rotary motor base 232. The front end of the rotary motor 233 is fixedly installed on the top of the rotary motor base 232. The output shaft of the front end of the rotary motor 233 extends downward into the interior of the rotary motor base 232. The first synchronous pulley 234 is coaxially connected to the output shaft of the rotary motor 233 and is located inside the rotary motor base 232. The guide rod mounting base 237 is rotatably mounted on the other end of the fixed plate 231. The second synchronous pulley 236 is coaxially connected to the top of the guide rod mounting base 237. After installation, the second synchronous pulley 236 and the first synchronous pulley 234 are at the same horizontal height. After the synchronous belt 235 is fitted onto the first synchronous pulley 234 and the second synchronous pulley 236, a stable transmission structure can be formed. The tension of the synchronous belt 235 can be adjusted by rotating the position of the motor base 232 and the fixed plate 231.
[0079] Therefore, the rotary motor 233 drives the first synchronous pulley 234 to rotate, which in turn drives the synchronous belt 235 to rotate the second synchronous pulley 236, thereby driving the guide rod mounting base 237 to rotate. Here, we will describe the interaction of the push rod motor assembly 22, the adapter pull base 241, and the bearing rod 242 as described above. The bearing rod 242 is inserted upwards into the guide rod mounting base 237 through the bottom circular hole. After insertion, the top of the bearing rod 242 protrudes from the second synchronous pulley 236 mounted on the top of the guide rod mounting base 237 and connects with the adapter pull base 241 at this position. This allows the bearing rod 242 to be stably positioned inside the guide rod mounting base 237, facilitating the linkage between the bearing rod 242 and the elastic slide rod assembly 25 mounted at the bottom of the guide rod mounting base 237.
[0080] The elastic slide rod assembly 25 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the guide rod mounting base 237. The bearing rod 242 is connected to the elastic slide rod assembly 25 installed at the bottom of the guide rod mounting base 237. When the bearing rod 242 is pushed down by the push rod motor assembly 22, the elastic slide rod assembly 25 will be driven to perform elastic compression movement downward, thereby driving the gripper assembly 26 to perform clamping movement to achieve clamping of the sample tube cap.
[0081] The gripper assembly 26 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the guide rod mounting base 237. After the gripper assembly 26 clamps the sample tube cap, the device moves the sample tube upward and removes it. Then, the rotary motor 233 drives the synchronous belt assembly to rotate and the guide rod mounting base 237 to rotate, thereby driving the gripper assembly 26 and the elastic slide rod assembly 25 to rotate. This enables the gripper assembly 26 to drive the sample tube to rotate so that the barcode scanner 11 can identify the barcode on the sample tube body.
[0082] In some embodiments, the rotary motor assembly 23 further includes a first bearing 238, a washer 239, a second bearing 2310, and a bearing cover plate 2320; the other end of the fixing plate 231 is provided with a stepped circular hole for mounting the guide rod mounting seat 237; the first bearing 238, the washer 239, and the second bearing 2310 are sequentially installed in the stepped circular hole, and the bearing cover plate 2320 is locked to the top surface of the stepped circular hole to press the first bearing 238, the washer 239, and the second bearing 2310 into the stepped circular hole; the guide rod mounting seat 237 passes through the stepped circular hole and rotates within the first bearing 238 and the second bearing 2310.
[0083] In this embodiment, the guide rod mounting base 237 extends upward through the stepped circular hole of the fixing plate 231 from the lower circular hole. To ensure stable rotation of the guide rod mounting base 237 on the fixing plate 231, a first bearing 238, a washer 239, and a second bearing 2310 are placed from the upper circular hole of the fixing plate 231 and fitted onto the guide rod mounting base 237. The bearing cover plate 2320 is locked to the top surface of the stepped circular hole of the fixing plate 231. The combined height of the first bearing 238, washer 239, and second bearing 2310 exceeds the height of the circular hole in the fixing plate 231. When the bearing cover plate 2320 is... When locked to the fixing plate 231, the first bearing 238, the washer 239, and the second bearing 2310 can be pressed to prevent vertical movement, and the rotational stability of the guide rod mounting seat 237 can be ensured by the first bearing 238 and the second bearing 2310. It should be noted that the guide rod mounting seat 237 can be stably positioned in the stepped circular hole of the fixing plate 231 by connecting with the first bearing 238 and the second bearing 2310, or it can be stably positioned in the stepped circular hole of the fixing plate 231 by connecting with the second synchronous wheel 236 installed on the top of the guide rod mounting seat 237 to the fixing plate 231.
[0084] In some embodiments, the rotary motor assembly 23 further includes a rotary baffle 2330 fitted on the guide rod mounting base 237; a rotary identification optocoupler 212 is mounted on the support plate, and the edge of the rotary baffle 2330 is located in the detection port of the rotary identification optocoupler 212; when the rotary motor 233 drives the synchronous belt assembly to drive and connect the guide rod mounting base 237 to drive the gripper assembly 26 to rotate, the rotary identification optocoupler 212 identifies the number of rotations and position of the rotary baffle 2330 to identify the number of rotations and position of the gripper assembly 26, and thus identifies the number of rotations of the tube cap.
[0085] In this embodiment, the rotating baffle 2330 is fitted onto the top of the guide rod mounting base 237. The height of the rotating optical coupler baffle exceeds the gap between the second synchronous wheel 236 and the second bearing 2310. First, the rotating baffle 2330 is fitted onto the top of the guide rod mounting base 237, and then the second synchronous wheel 236 is locked onto the stepped cylindrical surface at the top of the guide rod mounting base 237. This presses the rotating baffle 2330 firmly to prevent cross-movement. Thus, when the rotary motor assembly 23 operates, the rotating baffle 2330 rotates with the guide rod mounting base 237. The rotation recognition optical coupler 212 can identify the number of rotations and position of the rotating baffle 2330 by recognizing the notch markings on the rotating baffle 2330, thereby identifying the number of rotations and position of the gripper assembly 26.
[0086] Combination Figure 10 and Figure 11 The following is a detailed description of the elastic slide rod assembly 25 in the cover opening mechanism 2:
[0087] In some embodiments, the elastic slide rod assembly 25 includes: a T-shaped slide rod 251, a linear bearing 252, a guide rod 253, and a positioning spring 254; the top of the T-shaped slide rod 251 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the bearing seat 2424, and the bottom of the T-shaped slide rod 251 is slidably connected to the gripper assembly 26; two linear bearings 252 are respectively installed at the top ends of the T-shaped slide rod 251; two guide rods 253 are respectively inserted into the two linear bearings 252, the tops of the two guide rods 253 are inserted into the bottom of the rotary motor assembly 23, and the bottoms of the two guide rods 253 extend to the bottom of the T-shaped slide rod 251; two positioning springs 254 are respectively fitted onto the two guide rods 253; when the elastic slide rod assembly 25 moves downward along the height direction, the T-shaped slide rod 251 moves downward on the guide rod 253 through the linear bearings 252 and compresses the positioning springs 254.
[0088] In this embodiment, the elastic slide rod assembly 25 adopts a symmetrical design. A flattened cylinder is designed at the top center of the T-shaped slide rod 251 to align with the groove designed at the bottom of the bearing seat 2424. Four through holes are provided on the top of the T-shaped slide rod 251 around the flattened cylinder. These four through holes are locked and fixed with four threaded holes designed at the bottom of the bearing seat 2424, allowing the elastic slide rod assembly 25 to rotate relative to the bearing rod 242 via the bearing seat 2424. Cylinders with stepped circular holes are provided at both ends of the top of the T-shaped slide rod 251 for mounting linear bearings 252. The linear bearings 252 are pressed into the T-shaped slide rod 251 by combination screws 258 to prevent the linear bearings 252 from moving vertically. Two positioning springs 254 are respectively installed on the bottom surfaces of the top two ends of the T-shaped slide rod 251. Two guide rods 253 are respectively inserted into two linear bearings 252. The top of the guide rod 253 is fixedly inserted into the bottom of the guide rod mounting base 237, and the bottom of the guide rod 253 passes through the positioning spring 254 and is positioned with the bottom of the positioning spring 254. When the push rod motor assembly 22 is activated, the T-shaped slide rod 251 is driven to perform an elastic compression movement downward on the guide rod 253 through the linear bearing 252, thereby driving the gripper assembly 26 to perform a clamping movement to clamp the sample tube cap. The positioning springs 254 can add spring buffer during the push rod motor assembly 22's up and down pushing and pulling process, and can also provide a certain auxiliary clamping force when the gripper assembly 26 clamps the sample tube cap, reducing the occurrence of cap falling off.
[0089] In some embodiments, the elastic slide rod assembly 25 further includes a rotating shaft 255, rotating shaft bearings 256, and retaining rings 257; a through hole is opened at the bottom of the T-shaped slide rod 251, the rotating shaft 255 passes through the through hole and its two ends are located on both sides of the bottom of the T-shaped slide rod 251; two rotating shaft bearings 256 are respectively installed at both ends of the rotating shaft 255; two retaining rings 257 are respectively snapped onto both ends of the rotating shaft 255 to lock the two rotating shaft bearings 256 onto the rotating shaft 255; the two rotating shaft bearings 256 are respectively slidably connected to the gripper assembly 26. When the T-shaped slide rod 251 performs an elastic compression movement downward on the guide rod 253, it drives the rotating shaft bearings 256 at both ends of the rotating shaft 255 to move downward, thereby driving the gripper assembly 26 to perform a clamping movement to achieve clamping of the sample tube cap.
[0090] Combination Figure 12 As shown, the gripper assembly 26 in the lid opening mechanism 2 is described in detail below:
[0091] In some embodiments, the gripper assembly 26 includes two symmetrically arranged baffles 261, two connecting blocks 262, two grippers 263, two linear guides 264, and two sliders 265; the two baffles 261 are fixedly installed on the bottom of the rotary motor assembly 23, and the two baffles 261 are located on both sides of the elastic slide rod assembly 25; the two linear guides 264 are fixedly installed on the inner side of the two baffles 261; the two sliders 265 are slidably installed on the two linear guides 264 in the horizontal direction; the two connecting blocks 262 are fixedly installed on the two sliders 265; the two grippers 263 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the two connecting blocks 262; each of the two connecting blocks 262 is provided with an inclined slide groove 2621, and two rotating shaft bearings 256 are slidably connected in the two inclined slide grooves 2621.
[0092] This embodiment focuses on one side baffle 261. The top of baffle 261 is fixed to the bottom side of guide rod mounting base 237 by screws. Linear guide rail 264 is fixedly installed on the bottom inner side of baffle 261. The linear guide rail 264 is provided with a sliding groove. The slider 265 slides horizontally in the sliding groove of the linear guide rail 264. The connecting block 262 is fixedly installed on the slider 265 by screws so that it slides horizontally with the slider 265. Inclined sliding groove 2621 is inclinedly opened on the top inner side of the connecting block 262. The gripper 263 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the connecting block 262. It should be noted that the inclination directions of the two inclined sliding grooves 2621 on the two connecting blocks 262 are opposite. Therefore, when the two rotating shaft bearings 256 slide downward in the two inclined sliding grooves 2621, the two connecting blocks 262 can be driven to move in opposite directions in the horizontal direction on the corresponding linear guide rail 264, and drive the two grippers 263 to move in opposite directions to achieve clamping.
[0093] Combination Figure 13 As shown, the Z-axis mechanism 1 will be described in detail below:
[0094] Z-axis mechanism 1 includes a support plate 11, a drive assembly 12, a contamination-proof tray assembly 13, and an infrared optocoupler 14. The drive assembly 12 is mounted on the support plate 11 and connected to the support base 21, and is used to drive the support base 21 to move up and down in the height direction. The contamination-proof tray assembly 13 is mounted on the support plate 11 and located below the opening mechanism 2. When the opening mechanism 2 moves up with the cover to the waiting position, the contamination-proof tray assembly 13 rotates to correspond to the lower position of the cover held by the opening mechanism 2. When the opening mechanism 2 moves down with the cover to the opening position to rotate and close the cover, the contamination-proof tray assembly 13 rotates to avoid the lower position of the cover held by the opening mechanism 2. The infrared optocoupler 14 is mounted on the support plate. When the opening mechanism 2 moves down to the opening position to rotate and open the cover, and then moves up with the cover to the waiting position, the infrared optocoupler 14 is used to detect whether the opening mechanism 2 is holding a cover.
[0095] In this embodiment, the drive assembly 12 can be a structure where a lead screw motor drives a slider to move, and the slider drives the support base 21 to move. The anti-fouling tray assembly 13 can be driven by a motor to rotate the tray. When the capping mechanism 2 moves upward with the cap on to the waiting position, the tray is driven to rotate to the area below the cap held by the capping mechanism 2 to prevent dripping. When the capping mechanism 2 moves downward, the tray is driven to rotate to avoid dripping. The infrared optocoupler 14 can detect whether the capping mechanism 2 is holding a cap during the upward movement of the cap. If a cap is detected, it proves that the capping was successful.
[0096] This invention also provides a sample tube scheduling device, including the sample tube opening device described above.

Any person skilled in the art can easily conceive of various equivalent modifications or substitutions within the technical scope disclosed in the present invention, and these modifications or substitutions should all be covered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
