Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of sample transportation, and particularly to a light-shielding sample transportation box. Background Art

[0002] Medical examination is to conduct laboratory tests on specimens such as patients' blood, body fluids, secretions or exfoliated cells, which is one of the necessary means for clinical doctors to make a definite diagnosis. After the collection of samples for medical examination, in many cases, the samples need to be transported to a designated department before they can be analyzed using instruments, and some samples also need to be sent for inspection in a light-shielded manner.

[0003] In order to ensure the transportation safety of samples and avoid sample failure, the test tubes containing samples are usually placed in a transportation box for transportation. However, at present, the transfer management of samples is relatively loose. During the transfer process, there is only a simple paper record or no record for the transported samples. The loose sample transfer management poses a biosafety hazard. At the same time, there is no record for the storage boxes used when transporting samples, and no effective management is carried out, which poses a risk of sample damage and sample loss, and the management efficiency is low.

[0004] Therefore, a light-shielding sample transportation box that can effectively record the whole process of sample transportation is needed. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The present invention provides a light-shielding sample transportation box that can effectively record the whole process of sample transportation.

[0006] To solve the above technical problems, the present application provides the following technical solutions:

[0007] A light-shielding sample transportation box includes a transportation box body and a mobile terminal. The transportation box body includes a box body for storing test tubes, a box cover hinged to the box body, and a first communication module, a state detection module, a control module and a storage module arranged in the box body; a two-dimensional code is arranged on the outer surface of the box body;

[0008] The mobile terminal is used to scan the two-dimensional code on the box body to obtain address information, establish a connection with the first communication module according to the address information, and is also used to scan the bar code on the test tube placed in or taken out of the box body, analyze the bar code to obtain the initial sample information, and send the initial sample information to the first communication module;

[0009] The state detection module is used to detect the state of the box cover, and the state of the box cover includes an open state and a closed state;

[0010] The control module is used to obtain initial sample information from the first communication module, and is also used to add a new status to the initial sample information or the stored sample information according to the currently obtained initial sample information, the stored sample information, and the status of the box cover; it is also used to store the initial sample information with the new status added into the storage module as the stored sample information;

[0011] Among them, the new status includes the storage status or the removal status.

[0012] The principle and beneficial effects of the basic solution are as follows:

[0013] In this solution, the address information is obtained by scanning the QR code on the box body, and the mobile terminal can quickly establish a connection with the transfer box body, which is convenient to use. When medical staff open the box cover and put a test tube containing a sample into the transfer box body, they first scan the barcode on the test tube and send the initial sample information to the transfer box body, and the initial sample information is added with the storage status; after the medical staff open the box cover and take out the test tube from the transfer box body, they scan the barcode on the test tube and send the initial sample information to the first communication module, and the sample information corresponding to the test tube is added with the removal status.

[0014] To sum up, in this solution, from the time when the test tube is put into the transfer box body to the time when it is taken out, the change of the whole process status is recorded through the sample information, realizing the effective recording of the whole process of sample transfer.

[0015] Further, the initial sample information includes the unique identification code of the sample and the scanning time of the sample;

[0016] The control module is also used to, when the box cover is in the open state, match the unique identification code of the current initial sample information with the unique identification code of the stored sample information to determine whether the match is successful. If the match is successful, add the removal status to the corresponding stored sample information, and use the time when the sample information is obtained as the removal time and add it to the corresponding stored sample information; if the match is not successful, add the storage status to the current initial sample information, and use the time when the sample information is obtained as the storage time and add it to the current initial sample information.

[0017] By matching the unique identification code of the current initial sample information with the unique identification code of the stored sample information, if the match is successful, it indicates that the sample information of this sample already exists, that is, the corresponding test tube has been stored in the transfer box body before, and only the removal status needs to be added to the stored sample information.

[0018] Further, the transfer box body further includes a first motion detection module;

[0019] The control module is further configured to obtain motion data from the first motion detection module when the box cover is in the closed state, determine whether the transfer box body is in a moving state according to the motion data, and if it is in a moving state, add a transportation state to the corresponding sample information in the storage state, and add the duration of the moving state as the transportation time to the corresponding sample information.

[0020] Information about when the sample is transported can be recorded.

[0021] Further, the mobile terminal includes a scanning module, a second communication module, and a data processing module;

[0022] The scanning module is configured to scan the QR code on the box body to obtain address information; it is also configured to scan the barcode on the test tube placed in or taken out of the box body, and parse the barcode to obtain the initial sample information;

[0023] The data processing module is configured to establish a connection with the first communication module through the second communication module according to the address information; it is also configured to send the initial sample information to the first communication module through the second communication module.

[0024] Further, the second communication module is further configured to add the pre-stored user information as the handler information to the initial sample information before sending the initial sample information; the control module is further configured to add the handler information to the corresponding stored sample information when the matching is successful.

[0025] It can record who is responsible for storing the test tube and who is responsible for taking out the test tube.

[0026] Further, the control module is further configured to send the sample information after adding the taken-out state to the second communication module through the first communication module, and the second communication module is further configured to upload the sample information from the first communication module;

[0027] The control module is further configured to delete the corresponding sample information from the storage module after a preset time for sending the sample information is completed.

[0028] After the test tube is taken out, the corresponding sample information is uploaded for subsequent analysis and processing. After the sample information is uploaded, it is still stored for a preset time, that is, the sample information is kept in a double backup for the preset time. When the uploaded sample information is lost or the like, it can be restored from the storage module, and the security of the sample information is high.

[0029] Further, the transfer box body further includes an alarm module; the control module is further configured to determine whether the movement amplitude of the transfer box body exceeds a threshold according to the motion data, and if it exceeds the threshold, control the alarm module to play an alarm message;

[0030] The control module is further configured to add a motion amplitude exceeding standard state to the corresponding sample information in the stored state, and add a duration of the motion amplitude exceeding the threshold as a motion amplitude exceeding standard time to the corresponding sample information.

[0031] It can avoid large shaking during transportation and ensure the safe transportation of samples.

[0032] Furthermore, the control module is further configured to record the duration of the box cover being open, determine whether the duration exceeds a set duration, and if so, control the alarm module to play an alarm message;

[0033] The control module is further configured to add an exposure exceeding standard status to the corresponding sample information in the stored state, and add the duration as the exposure time to the corresponding sample information.

[0034] This can avoid the situation where samples become ineffective due to long-term exposure. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0035] Figure 1 This is a logic block diagram of a first embodiment of a light-proof sample transport box. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0036] The following is further described in detail through specific implementation methods:

[0037] Example 1

[0038] like Figure 1 As shown, a light-proof sample transfer box of this embodiment includes a transfer box body and a mobile terminal.

[0039] The transfer box body includes a box body for storing test tubes, a box cover hinged to the box body, and a first communication module, a status detection module, a control module, a storage module, a first motion detection module and an alarm module arranged in the box body; a QR code is provided on the outer surface of the box body.

[0040] The mobile terminal includes a scanning module, a second communication module and a data processing module.

[0041] The scanning module is used to scan the QR code on the box to obtain address information and establish a connection with the first communication module based on the address information. It is also used to scan the barcode on the test tube placed in or removed from the box, and parse the barcode to obtain initial sample information. The data processing module is used to establish a connection with the first communication module through the second communication module based on the address information. It is also used to send the initial sample information to the first communication module through the second communication module. The initial sample information includes the unique identification code of the sample and the scanning time of the sample. In this embodiment, the first communication module and the second communication module both include Bluetooth modules, and the address information contained in the QR code is the Bluetooth address of the Bluetooth module of the transfer box body.

[0042] In this embodiment, the second communication module is further configured to add the pre-stored user information as the handler information to the initial sample information before sending the initial sample information.

[0043] The status detection module is used to detect the status of the box cover, and the status of the box cover includes an open state and a closed state. In this embodiment, the status detection module includes a Hall switch disposed on the upper surface of the box body and a magnetic body disposed on the box cover. When the box cover is closed, the Hall switch detects the magnetic body and conducts, thereby generating an electrical signal.

[0044] The control module is configured to obtain the initial sample information from the first communication module, and is further configured to add a new status to the initial sample information or the stored sample information according to the currently obtained initial sample information, the stored sample information, and the status of the box cover; and is further configured to store the initial sample information with the new status added into the storage module as the stored sample information; wherein the new status includes a storage status or a retrieval status.

[0045] Specifically, when the box cover is in the open state, the control module is configured to match the unique identification code of the current initial sample information with the unique identification code of the stored sample information to determine whether the match is successful. If the match is successful, a retrieval status is added to the corresponding stored sample information, and the time when the sample information is obtained is added as the retrieval time to the corresponding stored sample information; if the match is not successful, a storage status is added to the current initial sample information, and the time when the sample information is obtained is added as the storage time to the current initial sample information. The control module is further configured to add the handler information to the corresponding stored sample information when the match is successful. In this embodiment, the control module is further configured to add the unique identification code of the transfer box body to the initial sample information.

[0046] When the box cover is in the closed state, the control module is further configured to obtain motion data from the first motion detection module, and determine whether the transfer box body is in a moving state according to the motion data. If it is in a moving state, a transportation status is added to the corresponding sample information in the storage state, and the duration of the moving state is added as the transportation time to the corresponding sample information. In this embodiment, the first motion detection module includes a gyroscope and an acceleration sensor. The angular data and acceleration data when a person carries the transfer box body and walks are calibrated in advance, and then the currently collected motion data, that is, the angular data and acceleration data, are compared and matched with the calibrated angular data and acceleration data to determine whether it is in a moving state.

[0047] The control module is also used to determine whether the movement amplitude of the operation box body exceeds a threshold according to the movement data. If it exceeds the threshold, it controls the alarm module to play an alarm message. In this embodiment, when the movement amplitude exceeds the threshold, it means that when carrying the transfer box body and running, the transfer box body drops, or the transfer box body is impacted, the corresponding threshold of the angle data and / or acceleration data is exceeded.

[0048] The control module is also used to add a movement amplitude exceeding standard status to the corresponding sample information in the storage state, and add the duration of the movement amplitude exceeding the threshold as the movement amplitude exceeding standard time to the corresponding sample information.

[0049] The control module is also used to record the duration of the box cover opening state, determine whether the duration exceeds the set duration. If it exceeds the set duration, it controls the alarm module to play an alarm message. The control module is also used to add an exposure exceeding standard status to the corresponding sample information in the storage state, and add the duration as the exposure time to the corresponding sample information. In this embodiment, the alarm module uses a speaker.

[0050] The control module is also used to send the sample information after adding the removal state to the second communication module through the first communication module, and the second communication module is also used to upload the sample information from the first communication module. In this embodiment, the second communication module also includes a WiFi module, and uploads through the WiFi module to the network and finally sends it to the server.

[0051] The control module is also used to delete the corresponding sample information from the storage module after a preset time for sending the sample information is completed. In this embodiment, the preset time is 7 days.

[0052] Embodiment 2

[0053] The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that in this embodiment, the mobile terminal further includes a second motion detection module; the second motion detection module is also used to collect the motion data of the mobile terminal;

[0054] The control module is also used to store the address information of the connected second communication module through the storage module;

[0055] The control module is also used to determine whether the first communication module is connected to the second communication module when the transfer box body is in a moving state. If it is connected to the second communication module, it sends the motion data to the connected second communication module through the first communication module;

[0056] The control module is also used to determine that the transfer box body is in a moving state and currently not connected to the second communication module, and control the first communication module to search for whether there is a second communication module that can be connected. If there is, obtain the address information of the second communication module;

[0057] The control module is further configured to determine whether the address information can match the stored address information. If the match is successful, it determines whether the number of second communication modules with successful address information matching is greater than 1;

[0058] If it is equal to 1, the control module is further configured to control the first communication module to establish a connection with the second communication module; and send the motion data to the connected second communication module through the first communication module.

[0059] If it is greater than 1, the control module is further configured to control the first communication module to establish connections with the second communication modules with successful matching respectively, and send the motion data to the connected second communication modules through the first communication module;

[0060] The data processing module is further configured to compare the motion data of the mobile terminal with the received motion data to determine whether the movement states are synchronized; if they are synchronized, the data processing module is further configured to use the pre-stored user information as the carrier information, and send the carrier information to the first communication module through the second communication module. The control module is further configured to add the carrier information to the corresponding sample information in the storage state.

[0061] During the transportation of the transfer box body, if there are situations such as excessive shaking amplitude, dropping, or impact, it is easy to damage the components of the oscillator inside and the samples. In this embodiment, by determining that the movement states of the user terminal and the transfer box body are synchronized, it can be recognized that the user of the user terminal is responsible for transporting the transfer box body. At this time, storing the user information of the user terminal as the carrier information in the sample information can record the carrier responsible for transportation, and the person involved can be quickly determined in case of subsequent problems.

[0062] When the transfer box body is currently in a moving state and not connected to the user terminal, search for nearby connected user terminals and establish connections. The user of this user terminal is more likely to be the carrier, and it can be confirmed through the comparison of motion data. When there are multiple nearby connected user terminals, connections can be established with each user terminal respectively for the comparison of motion data.
