Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of in vitro diagnosis, and specifically relates to a method for controlling the temperature of a variable-temperature metal in a temperature control device. Background Art
[0002] During the PCR process, the temperature uniformity between the variable temperature metal hot wells directly affects the accuracy of the measurement. In the prior art, there are mainly the following ways to improve the temperature uniformity between the hot wells.
[0003] The first method is to use edge insulation to isolate the heat well from the surrounding air through insulation cotton. Although it can reduce the heat consumption of the edge heat well, it still cannot completely isolate the heat exchange between the edge heat well and the surrounding air, resulting in a temperature difference between the edge heat well and the middle heat well.
[0004] The second method is to connect the heat wells with ribs, and use the ribs to conduct heat between the heat wells to improve temperature uniformity. However, since the variable temperature metal and the surrounding air produce heat convection, the heat at the edge of the metal is lost, which still causes the temperature of the edge of the variable temperature metal to be low.
[0005] The third method is to install a temperature compensation heating film around the side or bottom of the variable temperature metal, and use the temperature compensation heating film to heat to compensate for the heat loss around the variable temperature metal. Although it can improve the temperature uniformity of each hot well to a certain extent, the heat dissipated by each hot well of the variable temperature metal is uneven, and the temperature difference between each hot well and the outside world at different temperature points is different, the amount of heat required to compensate is also different. The existing method of using a heating film to compensate for heat loss can only achieve rough temperature compensation, and cannot perform precise temperature compensation for each hot well.
[0006] In addition, the temperature uniformity between hot wells is also affected by many factors, such as:
[0007] (1) The temperature compensation heating film generally uses a semiconductor refrigerator. The cooling or heating power on the surface of the semiconductor refrigerator has a certain degree of unevenness. In addition, the fixed structure and insulation cotton around the semiconductor refrigerator will also absorb the heat at the edge of the heat well.
[0008] (2) The temperature difference between different areas of the radiator will also cause uneven temperature of the variable temperature metal.
[0009] In existing PCR fluorescence quantitative analyzers, the problem of temperature uniformity between variable temperature metal hot wells has not been effectively solved. Summary of the invention

The temperature control device 13 is arranged below the heat well cover plate 59.

In this embodiment, the photoelectric module 14 and the control module 15 are both located on the same side of the temperature control device 13, and the photoelectric module 14 and the control module 15 are installed in the space below the bracket bottom plate 51 that is not occupied by the temperature control device 13. The power module 16 is installed at both ends of the bracket bottom plate 51.
[0071] like Figure 3-4 As shown, the thermal cover device 12 of this embodiment includes a thermal cover module and a thermal cover bracket 50. Figure 5As shown, the thermal cover module of this embodiment includes a top cover assembly 20 and a thermal cover assembly 30. The top cover assembly 20 includes a top cover 21, and a convex area 22 protruding upward and cooperating with the top hole 11 is provided on the top surface of the top cover 21, and a top cover guide shaft 23 is provided on the bottom surface of the top cover 21. The thermal cover assembly 30 includes a moving frame 31 and a cover assembly 32 installed on the moving frame 31. Figure 6 As shown, the heat cover bracket 50 of this embodiment includes a bracket bottom plate 51, and guide plates 52 are respectively provided on both sides of the bracket bottom plate 51, and a top cover track 53 and a heat cover track 54 are respectively provided on the guide plate 52 corresponding to the top cover assembly 20 and the heat cover assembly 30. In this embodiment, for the convenience of description, the direction parallel to the bracket bottom plate 51 and the guide plate 52 is made into a first direction, and the direction perpendicular to the bracket bottom plate 51 is made into a second direction. A top cover guide mechanism is provided between the top cover 21 and the moving frame 31, and the top cover guide mechanism enables the top cover 21 and the moving frame 31 to move relative to each other in the second direction and to move synchronously in the first direction.
[0072] Specifically, Figure 6 As shown, the top cover track 53 of this embodiment is set to at least one, and each top cover track 53 includes a top cover lower track segment 531 and a top cover upper track segment 532 parallel to the first direction, the distance between the top cover lower track segment 531 and the bracket bottom plate 51 is less than the distance between the top cover upper track segment 532 and the bracket bottom plate 51, and a top cover connecting track segment 533 is provided between the top cover lower track segment 531 and the top cover upper track segment 532. A top cover guide shaft 55 is provided on the top cover 21 corresponding to each top cover track 53. When the top cover track 53 is set to at least two, the spacing between any two top cover guide shafts 55 in the first direction is equal to the spacing between the two top cover tracks 53 corresponding to the two top cover guide shafts 55 in the first direction, and the spacing between any two top cover guide shafts 55 in the second direction is equal to the spacing between the two top cover tracks 53 corresponding to the two top cover guide shafts in the second direction. Specifically, the distance between the two top cover rails 53 in the first direction is the distance between the same structural positions corresponding to the two top cover rails 53 in the first direction, such as the distance between the connecting positions where the top cover lower rail segments 531 and the top cover connecting rail segments 533 of the two top cover rails 53 are connected in the first direction. Similarly, the distance between the two top cover rails 53 in the second direction is the distance between the top cover lower rail segments 531 of the two top cover rails 53 or the distance between the top cover upper rail segments 532 of the two top cover rails 53. Figure 5As shown, in this embodiment, there are two top cover rails 53, and correspondingly, there are two top cover guide shafts 55. In order to reduce the resistance of the top cover guide shaft 55 when it moves in the top cover rails 53, the top cover guide shaft of this embodiment is provided with a top cover guide roller 56. Of course, in other embodiments, the number of top cover rails 53 can be set to 1, 3 or more than 3 as needed, which will not be repeated. The distance between the lower track section 531 of the top cover of the two top cover tracks 53 of the present embodiment and the bracket bottom plate 51 is equal, and similarly, the distance between the upper track section 532 of the top cover of the two top cover tracks 53 and the bracket bottom plate 51 is equal; in some other embodiments, the distance between the lower track section 531 of the top cover of the two top cover tracks 53 and the bracket bottom plate 51 may be unequal, and similarly, the distance between the upper track section 532 of the top cover of the two top cover tracks 53 and the bracket bottom plate 51 is also unequal; regardless of the positional relationship of each top cover track 53, it is necessary to set the position of the top cover guide shaft 55 that cooperates with each top cover track 53 accordingly, so that the top cover 21 always maintains a set angle position relative to the bracket bottom plate 51 (in the present embodiment, the bottom surface of the top cover 21 is parallel to the bracket bottom plate 51). The two top cover tracks 53 of the present embodiment are connected, that is, the upper track section 532 of the top cover of one of the top cover tracks 53 is connected to the lower track section 531 of the top cover of the other top cover track 53. Of course, in some other embodiments, the two top cover rails 53 may be disconnected from each other.
[0073] like Figure 6As shown, the heat cover track 54 of this embodiment includes a heat cover upper track segment 541 and a heat cover lower track segment 542 parallel to the first direction, the distance between the heat cover upper track segment 541 and the bracket bottom plate 51 is greater than the distance between the heat cover lower track segment 542 and the bracket bottom plate 51, and a heat cover connecting track segment 543 is provided between the heat cover upper track segment 541 and the heat cover lower track segment 542. Correspondingly, a heat cover guide shaft 57 that is slidably matched with the heat cover track 54 is provided on the motion frame 31 of this embodiment, and when the heat cover guide shaft 57 is located at the heat cover lower track segment 542, the top cover guide shaft 55 is located at the corresponding top cover upper track segment 532 of the heat cover track 54; when the heat cover guide shaft 57 is located at the heat cover upper track segment 541, the top cover guide shaft 55 is located at the corresponding top cover lower track segment 531 of the heat cover track 54. That is, when the top cover 21 and the moving frame 31 move synchronously in the first direction, the top cover 21 covers the top hole 11 upwards under the guidance of the top cover track 53, and the moving frame 31 moves downwards under the guidance of the heat cover track 54 to make the cover assembly 32 cover the heat well cover 59; similarly, when the top cover 21 opens the top hole 11 downwards under the guidance of the top cover track 53, the moving frame 31 moves upwards under the guidance of the heat cover track 54 to make the cover assembly 32 move away from the heat well cover 59. That is, in this embodiment, the support bottom plate 51 is provided with a heat well cover 59, and the heat well cover 59 is arranged in the area between the heat cover lower track sections 542 on both sides of the support bottom plate 51. When the heat cover guide shaft 57 is located in the heat cover lower track section 542, the cover assembly 32 covers the heat well cover 59, and when the heat cover guide shaft 57 is located in the heat cover upper track section 541, the cover assembly 32 moves away from the area where the heat well cover 59 is located. The top hole 11 of this embodiment is arranged in the area between the top cover upper track sections 532 on both sides of the housing 10; when the top cover guide shaft 55 is located in the top cover upper track section 532, the raised area 22 is located in the top hole 11 to cover the top hole 11; when the top cover guide shaft 55 is located in the top cover lower track section 531, the top cover 21 moves out of the area where the top hole 11 is located to open the top hole 11. In the preferred embodiment of this embodiment, in order to reduce the resistance of the heat cover guide shaft 57 during the movement along the heat cover track 54, a heat cover guide roller 58 is provided on the heat cover guide shaft 57. In addition, the top cover rail 53 and the heat cover rail 54 of this embodiment are both rail groove structures arranged on the rail plate 52.

Specifically, in this embodiment, the motion track 35 is installed on the bottom surface of the upper motion plate 33, and the motion slider 36 is installed on the top surface of the lower motion plate 33; of course, in some other embodiments, the motion slider 36 can also be installed on the bottom surface of the upper motion plate 33, and the motion track 35 is installed on the top surface of the lower motion plate 33, which will not be repeated.

Specifically, an upper tension spring connecting rod 38 and a lower tension spring connecting rod 39 for installing the tension spring are provided on the upper motion plate 33 and the lower motion plate 34, respectively. By providing the reset spring 37 , the upper moving plate 33 and the lower moving plate 34 can be relatively displaced along the moving track 35 under the action of an external force, and then be reset by the reset spring 37 after the external force disappears.
[0076] like Figure 8As shown, the upper moving plate 33 of the present embodiment is provided with a top cover guide sliding hole 40 that is slidably matched with the top cover guide shaft 23, that is, the top cover guide mechanism of the present embodiment includes the top cover guide shaft 23 fixedly mounted on the bottom surface of the top cover 21 and the top cover guide sliding hole 40 that is arranged on the upper moving plate 33 and is matched with the top cover guide shaft 23. In addition, the upper moving plate 33 of the present embodiment is provided with a driving guide sliding hole 41 that is slidably matched with the heat cover driving guide rod 67, and the driving guide sliding hole 41 is located in the second direction, so that under the action of the heat cover driving guide rod 67, the heat cover driving slider 62 can drive the upper moving plate 33 to move synchronously along the first direction, and the upper moving plate 33 can also move relative to the heat cover driving slider 62 in the second direction.
[0077] like Fig. 9 As shown, in order not to interfere with the upper moving plate 33 moving relative to the lower moving plate 34 along the moving track 35 in the first direction, the present embodiment is provided with a top cover guide slot 42 on the lower moving plate 34 that cooperates with the top cover guide shaft 23, and the length direction of the top cover guide slot 42 is parallel to the first direction.

The limit structure of the present embodiment is a limit groove 68 provided on the guide plate 52, and the two side walls of the limit groove 68 cooperate with the motion limit block 43 to limit the two end positions of the lower moving plate 34 moving along the first direction. In this embodiment, the clearance groove and the limit groove 68 for letting the hot cover driving slider 62 are provided on the guide plate 52 and are integrated. Of course, in some other embodiments, the clearance groove and the limit groove 68 can also be provided separately, which will not be repeated.

The heat cover assembly of this embodiment also includes a temperature sensor for measuring the temperature of the cover heating film 47, and an over-temperature protection switch 49 is provided on the power supply circuit of the cover heating film 48.
[0079] The working process of the heat cover device 12 of this embodiment is as follows: in the open state, the top cover guide shaft 55 is located at the end of the top cover lower track section 531, and the heat cover guide shaft 57 is located at the end of the heat cover upper track section 541. At this time, the top cover 21 is completely offset from the top hole 11, so that the top hole 11 is fully opened; the cover plate assembly 32 is completely offset from the heat well cover plate 59, and the sample tube can be placed into the heat well cover plate 59 or taken out from the heat well cover plate 59 through the top hole 11. Figure 3 The drive motor 65 is started to drive the synchronous pulley 63 to rotate, and the synchronous belt 64 is used to drive the heat cover drive slider 62 along the heat cover drive track 61 to Figure 1 As shown in the right side movement, under the action of the heat cover driving guide rod 67, the moving frame 31 and the heat cover driving slider 62 are driven to move synchronously along the first direction, and under the action of the top cover guide shaft 23, the moving frame 31 drives the top cover 21 to move along the first direction; when the heat cover guide shaft 57 moves to the heat cover connecting track section 543, under the guidance of the heat cover connecting track section 543, the heat cover guide shaft 57 moves obliquely downward. In this process, the cover plate assembly 32 follows the moving frame 31 to move obliquely downward and covers the heat well cover plate 59. At this time, the covering force between the cover plate 45 and the heat well cover plate 59 is small; continue to drive the upper moving plate 33 along the heat cover connecting track Segment 543 moves obliquely downward, and under the limiting action of the motion limit block 43, the lower motion plate 34 no longer moves along the first direction with the upper motion plate 33, that is, at this time, the upper motion plate 33 and the lower motion plate 34 produce relative movement in the first direction along the motion track 35, and the reset tension spring 37 is lengthened, and at the same time, driven by the upper motion plate 33, the lower motion plate 34 moves downward along the second direction and compresses the spring 44, thereby enhancing the covering force between the cover plate assembly 32 and the heat well cover plate 59; when the heat cover guide shaft 57 moves to the heat cover lower track segment 542, the spring 44 is compressed to the shortest state, and the cover plate 45 covers the heat well cover plate 59 tightly. In the process of the moving frame 31 driving the top cover 21 to move along the first direction, when the top cover guide shaft 55 moves to the top cover connecting track section 533, the top cover 21 is located below the top hole 11 at this time, and the top cover guide shaft 55 moves obliquely upward along the top cover connecting track section 533. Under the action of the top cover guide shaft 23, the top cover 21 moves synchronously with the moving frame 31 along the first direction and produces relative movement in the second direction. When the top cover guide shaft 55 moves to the top cover upper track section 532, the top cover 21 reaches the uppermost position, and the raised area 22 is embedded in the top hole 11 to cover the top hole 11. When the top cover guide shaft 55 moves to the top cover upper track section 532 and the heat cover guide shaft 57 moves to the heat cover lower track section 542, the heat cover device 12 is in a closed state, such as Figure 4 shown.
[0080] Specifically, the movement process of the heat cover device 12 from the closed state to the open state is opposite to the movement process of the heat cover device 12 from the open state to the closed state. The only difference is that when the heat cover guide shaft 57 moves into the heat cover upper track section 541, under the tension of the reset spring 37, the upper moving plate 33 and the lower moving plate 34 are automatically reset to the initial state, which will not be repeated.

[0098] Step 2: Use the temperature rise and fall components to control the temperature of the variable temperature metal to rise to the temperature compensation point T j , and maintain the set temperature for a constant time.
[0099] Step 3: Use a thermometer to detect the temperature of each hot well and determine the temperature T of each hot well 73. ji and temperature compensation point T j If the difference between the values is within the set threshold range, no temperature compensation is performed; if not, the auxiliary heat sheet 84 is used to perform temperature compensation on the corresponding hot well 73, so that the temperature of the corresponding hot well 73 is within the set time and the temperature compensation point T j The difference between them is within the set threshold range.

Thus, after the variable temperature metal reaches the set temperature, each hot well can be temperature compensated using the calculated power compensation value, so that the temperature of each hot well reaches the threshold range of the set temperature, thereby improving the temperature uniformity between the hot wells.
