Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of in vitro diagnosis, and in particular to a luminescence detection device, a multi-detection index analysis system and a detection method. Background Art

[0002] At present, the commonly used methods and supporting instruments for detecting protein concentration in clinical practice are as follows:

[0003] 1. Latex enhanced immunoturbidimetry, which is usually used with a biochemical analyzer or a specific protein analyzer. This method is a homogeneous immunoassay with a fast detection speed and quantitative detection. However, this method has the following problems: low sensitivity, many low-abundance proteins cannot be tested with this method, and the linear range is narrow, which greatly limits its application.

[0004] 2. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA): This method is usually tested with an ELISA reader. Since it requires multiple cleanings, the detection time is very long, the repeatability is very poor, and it is difficult to run automatically, its clinical application has become less and less.

[0005] 3. Fluorescence immunochromatography, usually used with a fluorescence immunochromatography analyzer. The instrument is small and easy to carry, so it is often used for point-of-care testing (POCT). However, it has poor repeatability, a narrow linear range, and low sensitivity. The detection time takes more than 10 minutes, and the detection throughput is low.

[0006] 4. Magnetic particle chemiluminescence method. This method has high sensitivity, wide linear range, and good repeatability, but requires magnetic separation and cleaning, which results in long detection time, complex and large equipment, low detection throughput, and high failure rate.

[0007] It can be seen that the above methods all have certain problems, such as being unable to simultaneously meet the requirements of high sensitivity, wide linear range, good repeatability, short detection time, and high detection throughput. At the same time, except for latex-enhanced immunoturbidimetry, other methods are difficult to integrate with biochemical analysis, blood cell analysis, and coagulation analysis, so it is difficult to meet the current popular trend of integrating detection items according to clinical needs.

[0008] Homogeneous chemiluminescence detection method, homogeneous chemiluminescence detection can simultaneously meet the requirements of high sensitivity, wide linear range, good repeatability, short detection time, and high detection throughput, and can well meet the current needs of clinical testing.

[0009] However, the detection equipment in the prior art cannot be used for automated homogeneous chemiluminescence detection and requires manual or assisted manual operation, resulting in low operating efficiency, large operating errors, slow test speed, easy errors, and difficulty in integration into biochemical analysis, blood cell analysis, and coagulation analysis platforms. Therefore, there is an urgent need for an automated detection device that can meet the requirements of homogeneous luminescence and is compatible with existing biochemical analysis, blood cell analysis, and coagulation analysis platforms.

When the sample tray 512 is an annular structure, the reagent compartment 53 and the substrate liquid compartment 54 are arranged inside the annular structure, that is, arranged in the inner circle of the annular structure. Of course, the relative positions between the sample carrying portion 51, the reagent compartment 53 and the substrate liquid compartment 54 are not limited thereto, and the reagent compartment 53 and the substrate liquid compartment 54 can also be arranged outside the annular structure, such as arranged on the upper side, the lower side or one side of the horizontal direction of the annular structure.

[0150] Exemplarily, the sample rack 511 or the sample tray 512 can move in three-dimensional space or two-dimensional space, such as, specifically, the sample rack 511 or the sample tray 512 moving in two-dimensional space can include the sample rack 511 or the sample tray 512 translating in a horizontal plane or the like, such as moving forward, backward, left, and right, and the sample tray 512 can also rotate in a horizontal plane. The sample rack 511 or the sample tray 512 moving in three-dimensional space can include the sample rack 511 or the sample tray 512 moving in a horizontal space and in a vertical direction, such as the sample rack 511 or the sample tray 512 moving in forward, backward, left, right, and vertical directions, and / or rotating in a horizontal plane.

[0151] The sample rack 511 and the sample tray 512 can both be used to place samples. Optionally, the liquid carrying module 5 may include a sample tube 52. The sample rack 511 and / or the sample tray 512 can both be used to place the sample tube 52, which can contain the sample. The sample tube 52 can be covered with a tube cap 521 to prevent sample contamination.

[0152] In order to keep the sample, reagent and / or substrate at a preset temperature, such as a relatively low temperature and lower than the ambient temperature, the luminescence detection device may optionally further include a refrigeration module, which is used to refrigerate at least one of the sample, reagent and substrate. For example, part of the sample, reagent and / or substrate may be refrigerated in the refrigeration module; for another example, a refrigeration module may be provided outside the sample carrier 51, the reagent compartment 53 and / or the substrate liquid compartment 54.

[0153] Optionally, in order to facilitate the transfer of the sample, reagent and / or substrate liquid in the liquid carrying module 5 to the reaction cup 100, the luminescence detection device may further include a liquid adding module 1, and the liquid adding module 1 is used to add the liquid required for detection to the reaction cup 100. Furthermore, the liquid adding module 1 is used to transfer the liquid in the liquid carrying module 5 to the reaction cup 100. It can be understood that the liquid can be at least one of the sample, reagent and substrate liquid.

[0154] Optionally, the liquid adding module 1 can be moved in three-dimensional space, for example, the liquid adding module 1 can be moved to the sample carrying portion 51, the reagent chamber 53 and / or the substrate liquid chamber 54, and absorb the liquid in the sample carrying portion 51, the reagent chamber 53 and / or the substrate liquid chamber 54; for another example, the liquid adding module 1 can be moved to the reaction cup 100 to which liquid needs to be added, and add the liquid absorbed by the liquid adding module 1 to the reaction cup 100.

[0155] Optionally, at least one of the liquid adding module 1 and the liquid carrying module 5 can be moved so that the liquid adding module 1 can move the substrate liquid, sample and / or reagent in the liquid carrying module 5. For example, the liquid carrying module 5 does not move, and the liquid adding module 1 can at least move between the liquid carrying module 5 and the reaction cup 100 to be added with liquid; or, the liquid adding module 1 does not move, and the liquid carrying module 5 can move to the liquid adding module 1 so that the liquid adding module 1 can absorb the required liquid (the liquid can be at least one of the sample, reagent or substrate liquid); or both the liquid adding module 1 and the liquid carrying module 5 can move.

Optionally, the liquid carrying module 5 can move in translation and / or in vertical direction, and the liquid adding module 1 can move in vertical direction and / or in translation. For example, the liquid carrying module 5 can move in translation, and the liquid adding module 1 can move in vertical direction. For example, the liquid carrying module 5 moves to the bottom of the liquid adding module 1, and the liquid adding module 1 can absorb the liquid in the liquid carrying module 5 when it moves downward. Of course, in other optional embodiments, the liquid adding module 1 can be translated, and the liquid carrying module 5 can be moved in the vertical direction; or both the liquid adding module 1 and the liquid carrying module 5 can be translated, and at the same time, the liquid adding module 1 can also be moved in the vertical direction; or, both the liquid adding module 1 and the liquid carrying module 5 can be translated, and at the same time, the liquid adding module 1 can also be moved in the vertical direction; or, both the liquid adding module 1 and the liquid carrying module 5 can be moved in the vertical direction, and at the same time, the liquid carrying module 5 can also be translated; or, both the liquid carrying module 5 and the liquid adding module 1 can move in the vertical direction and translate.

[0157] like Figure 2-Figure 4 As shown, in an optional embodiment, the liquid adding module 1 includes a liquid transfer submodule 11 (such as Figure 4As shown in the figure, the pipetting submodule 11 is used to load samples and / or reagents into the reaction cup 100. Exemplarily, the number of the pipetting submodule 11 can be one, and the pipetting submodule 11 can transfer samples and reagents respectively. In order to ensure the purity of various samples and reagents and avoid mutual contamination between the two, the pipetting submodule 11 can be cleaned after transferring one liquid and before transferring another liquid. For example, after the pipetting submodule 11 transfers the sample in the sample holding part 51 to the reaction cup 100, the pipetting submodule 11 is cleaned, and then the pipetting submodule 11 transfers the reagent chamber 53 (as shown in the figure) to the reaction cup 100. Figure 2-Figure 4 ) is transferred to the reaction cup 100. Figure 2-Figure 3 As shown, of course, the number of the pipetting submodules 11 can also be two or more, and the pipetting submodule 11 can include a sample loading unit 112 and a reagent loading unit 113. The number of the sample loading unit 112 can be one or more, and the number of the reagent loading unit 113 can be one or more. The sample loading unit 112 is used to transfer the sample in the sample holding portion 51 to the reaction cup 100, and the reagent loading unit 113 is used to transfer the reagent in the reagent compartment 53 to the reaction cup 100.

[0158] The pipetting submodule 11 may further include a substrate loading submodule 12 , and the substrate loading submodule 12 is used to load substrate liquid into the reaction cup 100 .

[0159] like Figure 2-Figure 4 As shown, there may be a certain space between the substrate loading submodule 12, the sample loading unit 112 and the reagent loading unit 113, and the pipetting submodule 11 and / or the substrate loading submodule 12 may be respectively moved to the top of the liquid carrying module 5. The pipetting submodule 11 and / or the substrate loading submodule 12 may be respectively moved to the top of the reaction cup 100, and / or the reaction cup transfer module 6 (described in detail below) may transfer the reaction cup 100 to the bottom of the pipetting submodule 11 and / or the substrate loading submodule 12.

[0160] Optionally, the pipetting submodule 11 (sample loading unit 112 and / or reagent loading unit 113) and / or the substrate loading submodule 12 may include a pipetting needle 111, which can absorb and release substrate liquid, sample and / or reagent. Figure 1 As shown, optionally, the pipette needle 111 can penetrate the tube cap 521 of the sample tube 52 to absorb the sample, such as the pipette needle 111 descends below the sample liquid surface to absorb the sample. Exemplarily, the pipette needle 111 descends 2-5 mm below the sample liquid surface to absorb the sample.

[0161] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the liquid transfer submodule 11 (sample loading unit 112 and / or reagent loading unit 113) and / or substrate loading submodule 12 includes a liquid drive unit for driving the flow of liquid, and the liquid drive unit can be a pump or a syringe, and the pump can be connected to the pipette needle 111 or other liquid inlet and outlet parts, so as to drive the liquid to flow into the pipette needle 111 or drive the liquid to flow out of the pipette needle 111. The syringe can automatically or manually suck up and release the liquid.

[0162] Optionally, the pipetting submodule 11 and / or the substrate loading submodule 12 can transfer the liquid in the liquid carrying module 5 to the reaction cup 100 according to the amount required for detection.

[0163] like Figure 2 and Figure 8 As shown, the luminescence detection device may further include a washing module 7, and the washing module 7 is used to wash the liquid adding module 1 and / or the stirring module 40. Optionally, the washing module 7 is arranged on one side of the sample loading unit 112. Optionally, in this embodiment, one side or side portion may be an upper side, a lower side or a side in the horizontal direction, the upper side may be directly above or above the side, and the lower side may be directly below or below the side. Optionally, the liquid adding module 1 may be moved to the washing module 7, or the washing module 7 may be moved to the liquid adding module 1, so as to wash the liquid adding module 1.

[0164] Optionally, the washing module 7 can wash the pipette needle 111, and in particular, the washing module 7 can wash the pipette needle 111 of the pipette submodule 11 (sample loading unit 112 and / or reagent loading unit 113), so as to avoid cross contamination between samples. Exemplarily, the washing module 7 can wash the outside of the pipette needle 111 and the liquid channel of the pipette needle 111 (the liquid channel is a space opened inside the pipette needle 111 for accommodating liquid), such as the pipette needle 111 can be repeatedly aspirated and released by the washing liquid of the washing module 7 to clean the pipette needle 111.

[0165] like Figure 1 and Figure 5a As shown, optionally, the luminescence detection device may further include a mixing module 4, and the mixing module 4 is used to mix the solution in the reaction cup 100. For example, after adding the reagent to the sample, the sample and the reagent can be mixed, and after adding the substrate solution to the sample and the reagent, they can be mixed again to form a test solution with uniform distribution of the substrate solution, sample and reagent. In addition, the cells in the whole blood will naturally settle, resulting in an uneven sample, and the mixing module 4 can also make the cells in the whole blood evenly distributed. Optionally, the solution can also be mixed by the suction and exhalation action of the pipette needle 111, and / or the solution can be mixed by rotating the pipette needle.

[0166] Optionally, the mixing module 4 mixes the solution in the reaction cup 100 by moving it. For example, the mixing module 4 can directly move the solution or indirectly move the solution. For example, the mixing module 4 moves the solution by directly stirring the solution, or the mixing module 4 moves outside the reaction cup 100 to move the solution in the reaction cup 100.

[0167] Exemplarily, the mixing module 4 includes at least one of an ultrasonic mixing submodule, a vibration mixing submodule, and a rotation mixing submodule. The ultrasonic mixing submodule can generate ultrasonic waves, and the vibration mixing submodule can generate regular or irregular vibrations. The reaction cup 100 contacts the ultrasonic mixing submodule and / or the vibration mixing submodule, so that the solution in the reaction cup 100 moves, thereby making the solution evenly mixed.

[0168] The rotating mixing submodule can make the reaction cup 100 rotate, and during the rotation of the reaction cup 100, the solution moves, thereby mixing the solution. For example, the rotating mixing submodule can drive the reaction cup 100 to make a circular motion, such as a circular motion around a vertical axis. Of course, the rotating mixing submodule can drive the reaction cup 100 to move along a trajectory of other shapes, and the motion can include rotation or swinging.

[0169] like Figure 1 and Figure 5a As shown, optionally, the luminescence detection device may further include a reaction cup transfer module 6 , and the reaction cup transfer module 6 is used to transfer the reaction cup 100 .

[0170] Optionally, when the mixing module 4 includes a rotating mixing sub-module, the rotating mixing sub-module is connected to the reaction cup transfer module 6. When the solution needs to be mixed, the reaction cup transfer module 6 picks up the reaction cup 100, and the rotating mixing sub-module works to drive the reaction cup 100 to move; when the solution does not need to be mixed, but the reaction cup 100 needs to be transferred, the reaction cup transfer module 6 picks up the reaction cup 100 and drives the reaction cup 100 to move, but the rotating mixing sub-module does not work at this time.

[0171] Optionally, the cuvette transfer module 6 picks up the cuvette 100 by lifting, clamping and / or adsorption. Exemplarily, the cuvette transfer module 6 can lift the cuvette 100 from the bottom of the cuvette 100, and can put the cuvette 100 down, so as to transfer the cuvette 100 by lifting. For another example, the cuvette transfer module 6 may include two clamps, the two clamps are close to each other, and can clamp the cuvette 100, and the two clamps are far away from each other to release the cuvette 100, such as the cuvette transfer module 6 can be a clamp cylinder; for another example, the cuvette transfer module 6 adsorbs the cuvette 100 by vacuum adsorption, magnetic adsorption and other adsorption methods. When vacuum adsorption of the cuvette is adopted, a vacuum can be formed between the cuvette 100 and the cuvette transfer module 6, so as to achieve the purpose of adsorbing the cuvette 100; when magnetic adsorption is adopted, the cuvette can be adsorbed by magnet adsorption or electromagnet adsorption, such as a magnetic block connected to the cuvette 100, so as to adsorb the cuvette 100 by magnetic adsorption.

[0172] Optionally, the reaction cup transfer module 6 can transfer the reaction cup 100 in three-dimensional space, and / or the reaction cup transfer module 6 can rotate, for example, the motion trajectory of the reaction cup transfer module 6 after grabbing the reaction cup 100 is an arc trajectory or a straight line trajectory, or is composed of multiple arc trajectories and / or multiple straight line trajectories, or is composed of one arc trajectory and multiple straight line trajectories, or is composed of multiple arc trajectories and one straight line trajectory.

[0173] like Figure 2 As shown, the reaction cup transfer module 6 includes a first rotating drive member, a first rotating arm 61, a second rotating drive member, a second rotating arm 62 and a pick-up and place member 63 connected in sequence. The first rotating drive member drives the first rotating arm 61 to rotate, the second rotating drive member drives the second rotating arm 62 to rotate, and the pick-up and place member 63 can realize the above-mentioned lifting, clamping and / or adsorption functions. Figure 5a As shown, optionally, a rotating mixing submodule can be connected between the second rotating arm 62 and the pick-and-place member 63. In another optional embodiment, the reaction cup transfer module 6 can also include a first direction moving part, a second direction moving part, a third direction moving part and a pick-and-place member 63 connected in sequence, the first direction moving part can make the second direction moving part move along the first direction, the second direction moving part can make the third direction moving part move along the second direction, the third direction moving part can make the pick-and-place member 63 move along the third direction, and the first direction, the second direction and the third direction can be set at an angle to each other, so that the pick-and-place member 63 moves in a three-dimensional space. Exemplarily, the three directions are perpendicular to each other, and further, the three directions are perpendicular to each other, and one of the three directions is a vertical direction.

[0174] like Figure 1-Figure 3As shown, the luminescence detection device further includes an incubation module 8, which is used to incubate the solution in the reaction cup 100. The incubation module 8 can provide a suitable environmental temperature for the reagent to react.

[0175] like Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, illustratively, after the test solution in the reaction cup 100 is evenly mixed, the reaction cup 100 is placed in the incubation module 8, illustratively, as Figure 1 As shown, the incubation module 8 can accommodate a reaction cup 100, or Figure 4 As shown, the incubation module 8 accommodates a plurality of cuvettes 100. The cuvette 100 containing the test liquid can be transferred to the incubation module 8 by the cuvette transfer module 6. After the incubation is completed, the cuvette 100 of the incubation module 8 can be transferred to the detection module 3 by the cuvette transfer module 6.

[0176] Different from Figure 1 and Figure 4 ,like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, illustratively, an empty reaction cup 100 can be placed on the incubation module 8, and then the test liquid can be prepared on the incubation module 8. illustratively, the incubation module 8 can hold multiple reaction cups 100.

[0177] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the incubation module 8 includes an incubation tray 81, which is used to carry the reaction cup 100 and control the temperature of the reaction cup 100 to be constant. Optionally, the incubation tray 81 can rotate, such as rotating around its own central axis. Optionally, the incubation tray 81 is provided with a plurality of incubation positions 82 spaced along its circumference, and each incubation position 82 can be placed with a reaction cup 100.

[0178] In other optional embodiments, the rotating mixing submodule may not be connected to the reaction cup transfer module 6, but, optionally, the rotating mixing submodule may be located in the incubation module 8. Exemplarily, the rotating mixing submodule is located in the incubation tray 81, that is, the solution is mixed by adding a rotating mixing subdevice to the incubation tray 81.

[0179] The liquid adding module 1, the detection module 3, the cuvette storage module 9 and / or the cuvette recovery module 10 are arranged on the side, top or bottom of the incubation tray 81. In this embodiment, the side or one side can be one side in the horizontal direction or the upper side or the lower side.

[0180] Exemplarily, the substrate loading submodule 12, the sample loading unit 112 and the reagent loading unit 113 can be arranged on the outside of the incubation tray 81, such as, the substrate loading submodule 12, the sample loading unit 112 and the reagent loading unit 113 are arranged at intervals along the circumference of the incubation tray 81. Furthermore, along the rotation direction of the incubation tray 81, the sample loading unit 112, the reagent loading unit 113 and the substrate loading submodule 12 are arranged in sequence, so that when the incubation tray 81 rotates, the same reaction cup 100 passes through the sample loading unit 112, the reagent loading unit 113 and the substrate loading submodule 12 in sequence, so that the sample, reagent and substrate solution are added to the reaction cup 100 in sequence.

[0181] like Figure 2 As shown, the incubation tray 81 can be annular, and optionally, the detection module 3 is arranged in the incubation module 8. Specifically, the detection module 3 is arranged on the rotation track of the incubation position 82 of the incubation tray 81, and the reaction cup 100 can automatically enter the detection module 3 during the rotation of the incubation tray 81. After the detection is completed, the incubation tray 81 rotates, and the reaction cup 100 can automatically come out of the detection module 3.

[0182] Optionally, the detection module 3 may include an entrance door and an exit door. When the reaction cup 100 enters the detection module 3, the entrance door and the exit door are opened, one reaction cup 100 is transferred out of the detection module 3, and another reaction cup 100 enters the detection module 3. When detecting, the entrance door and the exit door are both closed, thereby ensuring the darkroom 31 environment of the detection module 3.

[0183] Of course, in other optional embodiments, the detection module 3 can also be arranged outside the incubation module 8, such as being arranged above, below, above the side, below the side, or on the side in the horizontal direction of the incubation module 8.

[0184] like Figure 2 As shown, the reaction cup transfer module 6 can be located in the inner ring or the upper part of the ring, and the reaction cup transfer module 6 picks up the reaction cup 100 to perform operations such as mixing.

[0185] Of course, you can also Figure 3 As shown, the incubation tray 81 is a circular structure. The detection module 3 can be arranged on one side of the incubation tray 81, such as the outside of the incubation tray 81. The reaction cup transfer module 6 can be located on the outside of the incubation tray 81, and the reaction cup transfer module 6 picks up the reaction cup 100 to perform a mixing operation, and / or the reaction cup transfer module 6 transfers the reaction cup 100 from the incubation module 8 to the detection module 3.

[0186] like Figure 2As shown, the incubation module 8 may further include an incubation tray drive submodule, which is used to drive the incubation tray 81 to rotate. The incubation tray drive submodule includes a driving member, a driving gear 831 and a driven gear 832, the driving member is connected to the driving gear 831, and is used to drive the driving gear 831 to rotate, the driven gear 832 is connected to the incubation tray 81, and meshes with the driven gear 832, and the driving member can drive the incubation tray 81 to rotate. It can be understood that the structure of the incubation tray drive submodule is not limited to this, and can also be other structures.

[0187] like Figure 2-Figure 4 ,as well as Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, optionally, the luminescence detection device may further include a reaction cup storage module 9 and / or a reaction cup recovery module 10. The reaction cup storage module 9 is used to store unused reaction cups 100, and the reaction cup recovery module 10 is used to recover used reaction cups 100 for subsequent unified treatment. The reaction cup storage module 9 stores unused reaction cups 100, so that the reaction cups 100 can be provided at any time. After the detection is completed, the reaction cup 100 can be transferred to the reaction cup recovery module 10, which can reduce aerosols in the environment. For example, the reaction cup 100 can be transferred to the reaction cup recovery module 10 by the reaction cup transfer module 6. Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, optionally, the reaction cup storage module 9 and / or the reaction cup recovery module 10 are arranged on the side, upper part or lower part of the incubation tray 81 to facilitate the transfer of the reaction cup 100.

[0188] like Figure 4 As shown, illustratively, the cuvette transfer module 6 can pick up the cuvette 100 in the cuvette storage module 9, or, Figure 6 As shown, the cuvette storage module 9 can transfer the stored cuvette 100 to a preset position, and the cuvette transfer module 6 can pick up the cuvette 100 from the preset position. After picking up the cuvette 100, the cuvette transfer module 6 can place the cuvette 100 on the incubation module 8, or place the cuvette 100 under the sample loading unit 112.

[0189] like Figure 6 As shown, the cuvette storage module 9 includes a storage submodule 91 and a cuvette arrangement submodule 92. The storage submodule 91 is used to store cuvettes 100 and provide cuvettes 100 to the cuvette arrangement submodule 92. The cuvette arrangement submodule 92 is used to arrange the cuvettes 100 in a preset arrangement pattern. The cuvette transfer module 6 can pick up the cuvettes 100 on the cuvette arrangement submodule 92, or Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the reaction cup arrangement submodule 92 can directly provide the reaction cups 100 to the incubation tray 81 .

[0190] Optionally, the storage submodule 91 may include a lifting base plate 911 , and the lifting base plate 911 may be moved up and down so that the reaction cup 100 on the lifting base plate 911 is transferred to the reaction cup arrangement submodule 92 through the outlet of the storage submodule 91 .

[0191] In a specific embodiment, Figure 2 The incubation module 8 includes an annular incubation tray 81, and a plurality of incubation positions 82 are arranged along the circumference of the incubation tray 81. The detection module 3 is arranged in the incubation module 8, and the plurality of incubation positions 82 can be rotated into the incubation module 8 respectively. The reaction cup transfer module 6 is arranged in the inner ring of the annular ring. Of course, in other optional embodiments, the detection module 3 is arranged outside the incubation module 8.

[0192] As an example, the sample loading unit 112, the reagent loading unit 113 and the substrate loading submodule 12 are arranged at circumferential intervals along the incubation plate 81, and the substrate loading submodule 12 is arranged close to the detection module 3 so that the reaction cup 100 facing the substrate loading submodule 12 can be rotated into the detection module 3 as quickly as possible.

[0193] As an example, the washing module 7, the sample carrying part 51, the reaction cup storage module 9 and the reaction cup recovery module 10 are all arranged outside the incubation tray 81, wherein the washing module 7 and the sample carrying part 51 are arranged near the sample loading unit 112. The reagent tank 53 is arranged near the reagent loading unit 113, and the substrate liquid tank 54 is arranged near the substrate loading submodule 12. The reaction cup storage module 9 is arranged near the sample loading unit 112 and is located upstream of the sample loading unit 112, and the reaction cup recovery module 10 is arranged near the detection module 3.

[0194] The luminescence detection device provided in this embodiment has a reasonable structure and is used for homogeneous chemiluminescence detection, and can simultaneously meet the requirements of high sensitivity, wide linear range, good repeatability, short detection time, high detection throughput, and small instrument size, and can well meet the needs of current clinical detection.

[0195] Exemplarily, a specific working process of the luminescence detection device may be as follows:

[0196] The cuvette storage module 9 transports the cuvette 100 to a preset position of the incubation tray 81; or the cuvette transfer module 6 transfers the cuvette 100 of the cuvette storage module 9 to a preset position of the incubation tray 81;

[0197] The sample loading unit 112 absorbs the sample on the sample carrying portion 51;

[0198] The incubation plate 81 rotates, the reaction cup 100 faces the sample loading unit 112, and the sample loading unit 112 adds the sample into the reaction cup 100;

[0199] The incubation plate 81 rotates, the reaction cup 100 faces the reagent loading unit 113, and the reagent loading unit 113 adds reagent into the reaction cup 100;

[0200] The reaction cup transfer module 6 picks up the reaction cup 100, and the mixing module 4 mixes the solution in the reaction cup 100;

[0201] The incubation plate 81 rotates, and when the reaction cup 100 is located in the substrate loading submodule 12, the substrate loading submodule 12 adds substrate liquid into the reaction cup 100;

[0202] The reaction cup transfer module 6 picks up the reaction cup 100, and the mixing module 4 mixes the solution in the reaction cup 100;

[0203] The incubation plate 81 rotates, the reaction cup 100 enters the dark room 31, and the detection submodule 32 performs detection;

[0204] The incubation tray 81 rotates, the cuvette 100 is located outside the darkroom 31 , the cuvette transfer module 6 picks up the cuvette 100 , and transfers the cuvette 100 to the cuvette recovery module 10 .

[0205] It can be understood that when a reaction cup 100 is facing the sample loading unit 112, one of the multiple reaction cups 100 on the incubation module 8 can be facing the reagent loading unit 113, another reaction cup 100 can be facing the substrate loading submodule 12, another reaction cup 100 can be located in the dark chamber 31, and another reaction cup 100 is transferred to the reaction cup recovery module 10.

[0206] Optionally, the multi-detection index analysis system may further include a control mechanism, which is used to control each module to work under a predetermined program. In this embodiment, the control mechanism may be a centralized or distributed controller, for example, the controller may be a single microcontroller, or may be composed of multiple distributed microcontrollers, in which a control program may be run to control the above components to realize their functions.

[0207] Embodiment 2

[0209] It can be understood that the biochemical analysis module 20 matches at least one of the liquid adding module 1, liquid carrying module 5, incubation module 8 and washing module 7 of the luminescent detection device, which means that the liquid adding module 1 provides the liquid required for detection for the biochemical analysis module 20 and the detection module 3 at the same time, and the liquid carried by the liquid carrying module 5 is the liquid required by the biochemical analysis module 20 and the detection module 3, wherein the liquid can be at least one of a reagent, a sample and a substrate liquid. The incubation module 8 can incubate the test liquid (a mixture of reagents, samples and substrate liquids) detected by the biochemical analysis module 20 and the detection module 3.

[0336] like Fig.10 and Fig.11As shown, the sample loading unit 112 includes a sample pipetting needle 1112, a second lifting assembly 1121 for driving the sample pipetting needle 1112 to rise and fall, and a translation assembly 1122 for driving the sample pipetting needle 1112 to translate.

[0338] like Fig.14 As shown, the washing module 7 also includes a sample washing submodule 72, which is used to wash the sample loading unit 112. Each time the sample loading unit 112 is used up, the sample pipetting needle 1112 of the sample loading unit 112 is cleaned so that the sample pipetting needle 1112 is clean when used next time to avoid sample contamination.

The specific structure of the substrate loading submodule 12 can refer to the first embodiment, and will not be repeated here.

[0341] like Fig.14 As shown, the luminescence detection device further includes a mixing module 4 , and the mixing module 4 in this embodiment is a rotating mixing module. The mixing module 4 is used to mix the sample and reagent in the reaction cup 100 .

[0342] like Fig.14 As shown, the mixing module 4 is located on one side of the incubation module 8 and on the moving track of the reaction cup transfer module 6. Specifically, in this embodiment, the mixing module 4 is located between the incubation tray 81 and the reaction cup temporary storage seat 801, and is located on the moving track of the reaction cup clamping assembly 66, so as to transfer the reaction cup 100 in the incubation tray 81 to the mixing module 4 through the reaction cup clamping assembly 66. In other words, the reaction cup transfer module 6 of this embodiment can not only transfer the unused reaction cups 100 in the reaction cup temporary storage module 80 to the incubation tray 81 of the incubation module 8, but also transfer the reaction cups 100 that have been added with reagents and samples in the incubation tray 81 of the incubation module 8 to the mixing module 4, and can also transfer the reaction cups 100 mixed by the mixing module 4 to the incubation tray 81 of the incubation module 8.

[0343] The mixing module 4 of this embodiment includes a rotating mixing submodule, which is used to drive the reaction cup 100 to rotate so that the reagent and the sample in the reaction cup 100 are mixed evenly.

[0344] like Fig.12 and Fig.14 As shown, the rotary mixing submodule of this embodiment includes a mixing motor 42 and a mixing seat 41 . The mixing motor 42 is used to drive the mixing seat 41 to rotate, and the mixing seat 41 is used to mount the reaction cup 100 .

When the reaction cup 100 moves to a position corresponding to the detection module 3 , the detection module 3 is used to detect the optical signal in the reaction cup 100 .

[0348] Alternatively, if Fig.10As shown, the detection module 3 includes a darkroom 31 and a detection submodule 32. The darkroom 31 can accommodate the reaction cup 100. The darkroom 31 can provide an environment required for detection, such as the environment in the darkroom 31 is darker than the external environment. More preferably, at least during detection, natural light from the outside cannot enter the darkroom 31. The detection submodule 32 is used to detect the optical signal in the reaction cup 100 in the darkroom 31. The detection submodule 32 includes a photomultiplier tube (i.e., a PMT detector), a photodiode (PD), an avalanche photodiode (APD), a silicon photomultiplier tube (SiPM), a complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) or a charge coupled device (CCD).

[0349] Optionally, the detection module 3 may include an entrance door and an exit door. When the reaction cup 100 enters the detection module 3, the entrance door and the exit door are opened, one reaction cup 100 is transferred out of the detection module 3, and another reaction cup 100 enters the detection module 3. When detecting, the entrance door and the exit door are both closed, thereby ensuring the darkroom 31 environment of the detection module 3.

The entrance of the recovery track 10a is located on the moving track of the reaction cup clamping assembly 66, and the exit of the recovery track 10a is connected to the recovery box 10b so that the reaction cup 100 enters the recovery box 10b.

[0352] like Fig.12 As shown, the recovery track 10a is tilted, and the entrance of the recovery track 10a is higher than the exit of the recovery track 10a, so that the reaction cup 100 located at the entrance of the recovery track 10a can move to the exit of the recovery track 10a under the action of gravity.

[0353] The reaction cup transfer module 6 of the present invention has a simple structure, and the reaction cup transfer module 6 can obtain the reaction cup 100 from the reaction cup temporary storage module 80 to the incubation module 8. After the reaction cup 100 is loaded with reagents, samples, and substrate solution in the incubation module 8, the reaction cup transfer module 6 transfers the reaction cup 100 to the mixing module 4 for mixing and then moves it back to the incubation module 8. Finally, the reaction cup transfer module 6 also transfers the detected reaction cup 100 to the reaction cup recovery module 10. That is, the reaction cup transfer module 6 realizes the transfer of the four processes of cup loading, mixing, incubation, and recovery of the reaction cup 100, making the entire luminescence detection device compact and efficient.

[0354] One use process of the luminescence detection device of this embodiment is as follows:

[0355] The cuvette 100 enters the cuvette arrangement submodule 92 from the storage submodule 91 of the cuvette storage module 9; the cuvette 100 enters the arrangement channel 921 of the cuvette arrangement submodule 92 and moves along the arrangement channel 921; the cuvette 100 falls out from the outlet of the arrangement channel 921 and enters the cuvette temporary storage tank of the cuvette temporary storage seat 801 of the cuvette temporary storage module 80;

[0356] The first motor 802 of the cuvette temporary storage module 80 rotates the cuvette temporary storage seat 801, so that the cuvette temporary storage slot containing the cuvette 100 coincides with the moving track of the cuvette clamping assembly 66 of the cuvette transfer module 6;

[0358] The incubation plate 81 rotates to make the reaction cup 100 coincide with the moving track of the reagent pipetting needle 1111 of the reagent loading module 113;

[0359] The first lifting component 1131 and the rotating component 1132 of the reagent loading module 113 cooperate with each other to move the reagent pipetting needle 1111 into the reagent bottle of the reagent compartment 53 so that the reagent pipetting needle 1111 absorbs the reagent. The first lifting component 1131 and the rotating component 1132 cooperate with each other to move the reagent pipetting needle 1111 into the reaction cup 100 so as to add the absorbed reagent into the reaction cup 100. The first lifting component 1131 and the rotating component 1132 cooperate with each other to move the reagent pipetting needle 1111 into the reagent washing submodule 71 so as to wash the reagent pipetting needle 1111.

[0360] The incubation plate 81 of the incubation module 8 rotates to make the reaction cup 100 coincide with the moving track of the sample pipetting needle 1112 of the sample loading module 112;

[0361] The second lifting assembly 1121 and the translation assembly 1122 of the sample loading module 112 cooperate with each other to move the sample pipette needle 1112 into the sample tube 52 of the sample rack 511 so that the sample pipette needle 1112 absorbs the sample. The second lifting assembly 1121 and the translation assembly 1122 cooperate with each other to move the sample pipette needle 1112 into the reaction cup 100 so as to add the absorbed sample into the reaction cup 100. The second lifting assembly 1121 and the translation assembly 1122 cooperate with each other to move the sample pipette needle 1112 into the sample washing submodule 72 so as to wash the sample pipette needle 1112.

[0362] The incubation plate 81 of the incubation module 8 rotates so that the reaction cup 100 containing the reagent and the sample coincides with the moving track of the reaction cup clamping assembly 66;

[0363] The first moving assembly 64 and the second moving assembly 65 of the reaction cup transfer module 6 cooperate with each other to move the reaction cup clamping assembly 66 to the top of the reaction cup 100, and the reaction cup clamping assembly 66 clamps the reaction cup 100. The first moving assembly 64 and the second moving assembly 65 cooperate with each other to move the reaction cup clamping assembly 66 to the mixing position; the mixing motor 42 drives the reaction cup 100 in the mixing position to rotate, so that the reagent and sample in the reaction cup 100 are evenly mixed; the first moving assembly 64 and the second moving assembly 65 cooperate with each other, and the reaction cup clamping assembly 66 puts the reaction cup 100 in the mixing position back to the incubation position 82;

[0364] The incubation plate 81 of the incubation module 8 rotates to make the reaction cup 100 containing reagents and samples coincide with the moving track of the substrate loading submodule 12 , and the substrate loading submodule 12 adds the substrate in the substrate liquid reservoir 54 to the reaction cup 100 .

[0365] The incubation plate 81 of the incubation module 8 rotates to rotate the mixed reaction cup 100 to a position aligned with the detection module 3; the detection module 3 transfers the reaction cup 100 to the detection module 3 and detects the liquid. After the detection is completed, the reaction cup 100 is transferred back to the incubation plate 81.

[0366] The incubation tray 81 of the incubation module 8 rotates so that the detected cuvette 100 coincides with the moving track of the cuvette clamping assembly 66 of the cuvette transfer module 6 , and the cuvette transfer module 6 moves the detected cuvette out of the incubation tray 81 .

[0367] The first moving component 64 and the second moving component 65 of the reaction cup transfer module 6 cooperate with each other to move the reaction cup clamping component 66 to the top of the reaction cup 100, and the reaction cup clamping component 66 clamps the reaction cup 100. The first moving component 64 and the second moving component 65 cooperate with each other to move the reaction cup clamping component 66 to the top of the recovery track 10a, and the reaction cup clamping component 66 releases the reaction cup 100, and the reaction cup 100 falls into the recovery track 10a and finally enters the recovery box 10b.

[0368] The luminescence detection device of the present invention can realize automatic detection and does not require a sample cleaning module, thereby greatly reducing the complexity of the luminescence detection device and the cost of the equipment.

[0369] The first sample result is faster, the fastest only takes 3 minutes, while the magnetic microparticle chemiluminescence takes 12 minutes. The luminescence detection device can greatly reduce the number of incubation positions on the incubation plate, greatly reducing the volume of the luminescence detection device. The structure is more compact and reasonable without the need for a sample cleaning module, and the test speed can reach 360T / H, while the magnetic microparticle chemiluminescence used in the luminescence detection device of the same volume in the prior art can only reach 80-120T / H.

[0370] The liquid carrying module 5 does not require stirring, has low cost and high reliability, and can store more reagents in a smaller volume.

[0371] The reaction cup transfer module 6 realizes the transfer of the four processes of cup loading, mixing, incubation and recovery of the reaction cup 100, and has a simple and compact structure.

[0372] The luminescence detection device of the present invention only needs one substrate chamber. After adding the substrate liquid, the reaction cup 100 can be directly sent to the detection module 3 for detection of luminescence signals, thereby reducing waiting time and accelerating detection speed.

[0373] Only three openings are required to connect the incubation tray 81 to the outside. Fewer openings greatly reduce the possibility of external light leaking into the darkroom, reduce the dark count of the network photomultiplier tube, and help improve the sensitivity of detection.

[0374] The luminescence detection device of the present invention directly tests the whole blood sample without the need for sample centrifugation, and cooperates with the sample automatic injection track to greatly improve the efficiency of the test.

[0375] Although the present invention has been described in detail above by means of general description, specific implementation methods and tests, it is obvious to those skilled in the art that some modifications or improvements may be made to the present invention.
