Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of microbial detection and analysis, and in particular to a sample adjustment device for a microbial detection and analysis instrument. Background Art

[0002] Microbial detection analyzers are specialized equipment used to detect and analyze microorganisms in samples. This instrument is widely used in laboratory environments, especially in food safety, clinical diagnosis, environmental monitoring and pharmaceutical industries. Microbial detection analyzers use a variety of technologies to identify and count microorganisms.

[0003] When using existing analyzers, samples are often prepared and shaken in a specific area before being poured into test tubes. During this operation, the test solution distributed in multiple test tubes is uneven, and manual operation by personnel may lead to errors in the operating specifications in some steps. Manual operation by personnel may cause contamination of test tubes with foreign microorganisms and bacteria, resulting in inaccurate analysis. At the same time, the test solution cannot be automatically prepared, which increases the frequency of errors in complex operation steps.

[0004] When using an existing analyzer, distilled water, a mixed liquid, and a test liquid are added to a test tube twice. The two operations will produce a time difference, which will reduce the accuracy of the test results and make it impossible to ensure a strict comparison between the control group and the experimental group. In addition, in the process of adding distilled water and the mixed liquid, the staff may mistakenly spill the distilled water and the mixed liquid on the surface of the operating table, which will not only require additional cleaning work, but also make it impossible to ensure that the quantitative relationship between the added distilled water and the mixed liquid is consistent with the demand, thereby causing the test to be invalid and requiring re-testing.

[0019] From the above, the advantages of the present invention are:

[0020] In the process of moving the test tube to the bottom of sample tube one and sample tube two, the piston rod of the piston cylinder moves to drip the test liquid in the liquid storage cylinder into the test tube. Compared with the method of manually picking up the test tube and manually dripping the test liquid in the prior art, the present device can control the amount of test liquid dripped in and then drip the test liquid.

Compared with the method in the prior art of shaking sample tube one and sample tube two in a specific area and then moving sample tube one and sample tube two to the detection area, the device integrates the loading platform and the threaded block inside the device body, reducing the physical handling and repeated connection of samples. The staff only needs to perform the initial sample loading to realize the fully automatic process from shaking to preparing for detection, reducing human intervention, and using the clockwork spring to store and release mechanical energy, reducing the need for multiple electric drives and improving the mechanical stability and service life of the equipment.

[0022] The liquid in sample tube one and sample tube two is introduced into the test tube by pushing the extrusion plate through the threaded block. Compared with the prior art method of adding distilled water, mixed liquid and detection liquid into the test tube twice, the device adds distilled water and mixed liquid into the corresponding test tubes respectively while dripping the detection liquid. This synchronization can eliminate the influence of time difference and ensure strict comparison between the control group and the experimental group. In addition, multiple steps can be completed at the same time through one operation, which significantly reduces the number of steps required to be performed during the experiment, thereby shortening the overall experimental time, and reducing the chance of operators directly contacting samples and reagents, reducing the risk of contamination.

[0023] By pushing the rod to contact and disengage from the trigger rod, the solenoid valve can be opened and closed in time, avoiding the situation in the prior art where the liquid in sample tube one and sample tube two drips onto the operating table during the process of introducing the test tube due to staff errors, thereby contaminating the operating table and requiring additional cleaning work. In addition, when liquid drips onto the operating table, it cannot be guaranteed that the quantitative relationship between sample tube one and sample tube two introduced into the test tube is consistent with the requirement, thereby causing the test to be invalid and requiring re-testing.

[0055] During operation: Initial limitation: The output shaft of the servo motor 21 is preset with a number of rotations through the controller, and the number of rotations is an integer multiple, and the telescopic end of the electric telescopic rod 61 is preset with a telescopic length through the controller;

[0056] The staff member picks up the sample tube 1 41 and the sample tube 2 42 respectively, fills the sample tube 1 41 with distilled water, and fills the sample tube 2 42 with the sample and the absorption liquid, and the volume of the distilled water is one third of the volume of the absorption liquid, and then puts them back to their original positions, and then presses the operation button on the outer wall of the device body 1 to rotate the output shaft of the servo motor 21 through the controller, and the output shaft of the servo motor 21 rotates a preset number of circles. During the rotation of the output shaft of the servo motor 21, the rotating disk 31 is driven to rotate, so that the crank 32 on the surface of the rotating disk 31 rotates in a circular trajectory, so that the crank 32 reciprocates to push and pull the loading platform 33, and the loading platform 33 reciprocates horizontally along the guide rail 34, so that the sample tube 1 41 and the sample tube 2 42 are shaken;

[0057] The device utilizes the rotation of the output shaft of the servo motor 21 to make the spring spring 59 store force and move the thread block 610 to the bottom of the loading platform 33. The detailed steps are as follows:

[0058] During the rotation of the output shaft of the servo motor 21, the synchronous wheel 1 51 rotates together with the output shaft of the servo motor 21. Since the synchronous wheel 1 51 drives the synchronous wheel 2 52 through the synchronous belt, the synchronous wheel 2 52 and the bevel gear 1 53 rotate together with the synchronous wheel 1 51. Since the bevel gear 1 53 meshes with the bevel gear 2 54, the bevel gear 2 54, the connecting rod 55 and the synchronous wheel 3 56 rotate together with the synchronous wheel 2 52. Since the synchronous wheel 3 56 drives the synchronous wheel 4 57 through the synchronous belt, the synchronous wheel 4 57 rotates together with the synchronous wheel 3 56, thereby making the concentric shaft 512, the linkage shaft 511 and the rotating shaft 510 rotate together with the synchronous wheel 4 57. During the rotation of the rotating shaft 510, the limiting groove on the surface of the rotating shaft 510 acts as a connection point to drive the spring spring 59 to continuously contract, so that the spring spring 59 accumulates force.

[0059] When the rotating shaft 510 rotates, the ratchet 63 is driven to rotate counterclockwise. When the ratchet 63 rotates counterclockwise, the one-way teeth on the outside of the ratchet 63 slide over the inside of the pawl 64 one by one and squeeze the pawl 64, so that the pawl 64 rotates toward the side close to the small compression spring 6501 with the rotating connection with the disc 65 as the axis. At this time, the small compression spring 6501 is compressed. When the pawl 64 leaves the angle between the one-way teeth on the ratchet 63, the small compression spring 6501 stretches and pushes the pawl 64 into the angle between the one-way teeth on the next ratchet 63. In this way, the rotating shaft 510 will not drive the disc 65 and the reciprocating screw 66 to rotate together during the counterclockwise rotation.

[0060] When the output shaft of the servo motor 21 completes the rotation of the preset number of circles, it stops rotating. At this time, the sample tube 1 41 and the sample tube 2 42 complete the shaking synchronously. Then the staff presses the operation button on the outer wall of the device body 1 to make the telescopic end of the electric telescopic rod 61 contract, so that the linkage shaft 511 is completely separated from the rotating shaft 510, and further makes the rotating shaft 510 lose the restriction of the linkage shaft 511 and the concentric shaft 512. At this time, the clockwork spring 59 in the restriction disk 58 releases the stored force, so that the rotating shaft 510 reverses;

[0061] During the reverse rotation of the rotating shaft 510, the ratchet wheel 63 rotates clockwise with the rotating shaft 510, thereby driving the disc 65 and the reciprocating screw 66 to rotate, so that the threaded block 610 moves horizontally along the guide rod 69 in a direction away from the disc 65, until the force stored in the limiting disk 58 is completely released. At this time, the threaded block 610 has moved to the bottom of the loading platform 33, and the test tube 611 is located directly below the sample tube 1 41 and the sample tube 2 42;

[0062] By arranging a loading platform 33 and a threaded block 610 inside the device body 1, and during the rotation of the output shaft of the servo motor 21, the rotating shaft 510 is driven to rotate, so as to store force in the clockwork spring 59. Compared with the method of the prior art of shaking sample tube 1 41 and sample tube 2 42 in a specific area and then manually moving sample tube 1 41 and sample tube 2 42 to the detection area, the present device integrates the loading platforms 33 and 410 inside the device body 1, reducing the physical handling and repeated connection of samples. The staff only needs to perform the initial sample loading to realize the fully automatic process from shaking to preparing for detection, thereby reducing human intervention.

[0063] The device can automatically drip the detection liquid into the test tube 611, and the detailed steps are as follows:

[0064] Since the number of spring buckles 618 on the side of the limiting ring 619 close to the push rod 616 represents the amount of the test liquid dripped in, the staff first adjusts the amount of the test liquid dripped in according to the needs, grabs the limiting ring 619 by hand, makes the limiting ring 619 slide on the outer surface of the liquid limiting tube 617, and adjusts the number of spring buckles 618 at the rear end of the limiting ring 619 as needed. When the position of the limiting ring 619 is determined, the fixing bolt at the bottom end of the limiting ring 619 is rotated, so that the fixing ring 619 is fixed to the outer surface of the liquid limiting tube 617 through the fixing bolt, and is fixed;

[0065] During the horizontal movement of the threaded block 610 along the guide rod 69 in the direction away from the disc 65, the threaded block 610 contacts the extrusion plate 613, and the push rod 616 enters the interior of the liquid limiting tube 617 while contacting the extrusion plate 613. As the threaded block 610 continues to move, the extrusion plate 613 moves horizontally along the groove 1 on the bracket 67 in the direction close to the piston cylinder 614. During this process, the extrusion plate 613 drives the piston rod on the piston cylinder 614 to move together, so that the piston rod moves toward The piston cylinder 614 is moved horizontally in the direction close to one side, and the detection liquid in the piston cylinder 614 is pushed to the dropper 616, and then dripped into the interior of the test tube 611 through the dropper 616 until the push rod 616 is blocked by the blocking bar in the middle of the limit ring 619. At this time, the dripping of the detection liquid is completed. When the staff finds that the push rod 616 is blocked by the blocking bar in the middle of the limit ring 619 and cannot continue to move horizontally, the staff turns off the servo motor 21 through the controller, so that the threaded block 610 and the push rod 616 stop moving;

[0066] When the threaded block 610 contacts the squeezing plate 613, the open portion of the test tube 611 on the side close to the squeezing plate 613 is already below the opening of the end of the dropper 616 away from the dropper 615. At this time, the threaded block 610 continues to move from the test tube 611 close to the squeezing plate 613 to the side away from the test tube 611, which is the distance of the next movement. When the threaded block 610 stops moving horizontally, the open portion of the test tube 611 is still below the opening of the end of the dropper 616 away from the dropper 615, so that the detection liquid in the dropper 615 can completely enter the interior of the test tube 611.

[0067] In the process of moving the test tube 611 to the bottom of the sample tube 1 41 and the sample tube 2 42, the piston rod of the piston cylinder 614 moves to drip the detection liquid into the interior of the test tube 611. Compared with the method of manually picking up the test tube 611 and manually dripping the detection liquid in the prior art, the present device can control the amount of the detection liquid dripped in and then drip the detection liquid. By controlling the amount of the detection liquid dripped in, the needs of detecting different microorganisms can be met, and the same amount of detection liquid can be ensured to be dripped into each test tube 611, thereby avoiding errors caused by different personnel in manual operation. The automated process reduces the direct contact between the operator and the reagents and samples, thereby avoiding and reducing the risk of cross contamination and environmental pollution.

[0068] Embodiment 2:

[0069] Further, such as Figure 12 to Figure 14 As shown, the flow dividing assembly includes a retaining groove 71 provided on the surface of the loading platform 33, and the bottom surfaces of the sample tube 1 41 and the sample tube 2 42 are provided with solenoid valves 72, and the number of the solenoid valves 72 is not less than four, wherein the number of the solenoid valve 72 on the bottom surface of the sample tube 1 41 is one, and the number of the solenoid valves 72 on the bottom surface of the sample tube 2 42 is three, and the tops of the sample tube 1 41 and the sample tube 2 42 are provided with air holes, which are used to ensure that the air pressure inside the sample tube 1 41 and the sample tube 2 42 is equal to the external environment, and the sample tube 1 41 and the sample tube 2 42 are fixedly connected to the side of the solenoid valve 72, and the fixing bar 73 is provided with not less than Two, the side of the fixing bar 73 away from the sample tube 1 41 and the sample tube 2 42 is rotatably connected with a rotating shaft 74, and the rotating shaft 74 is equidistantly fixedly connected with a fitting plate 75, the top surface of the fitting plate 75 is in close contact with the bottom surface of the electromagnetic valve 72, and there are no less than four fitting plates 75, among which the number of the fitting plates 75 on the bottom surface of the sample tube 1 41 is one, and the number of the fitting plates 75 on the bottom surface of the sample tube 2 42 is three, the side of the fitting plate 75 away from the electromagnetic valve 72 is fixedly connected with a trigger rod 76, and the side of the fitting plate 75 away from the trigger rod 76 is fixedly connected with no less than two groups of tension springs 77, each group includes two tension springs 77, and the tension springs 77 are in a stretched state.

[0070] Further, such as Fig.12 As shown, the shape of the retaining groove 71 is adapted to the shapes of the sample tube 1 41 and the sample tube 2 42 .

[0071] Further, such as Fig.13 and Fig.14 As shown, a sealing gasket is provided on the bottom surface of the solenoid valve 72, the solenoid valve 72 is located obliquely above the test tube 611, the trigger rod 76 and the push rod 612 are located on the same horizontal line, a contact switch is provided on the trigger rod 76, and the contact switch is electrically controlled and connected to the solenoid valve 72, one group of tension springs 77 is fixedly connected to sample tube 1 41, and another group of tension springs 77 is fixedly connected to sample tube 2 42.

[0072] When working: the device introduces the sample mixture and distilled water into the test tube 611 while dripping the detection liquid. The detailed steps are as follows:

[0073] When the threaded block 610 moves horizontally along the guide rod 69 toward the direction away from the disc 65, and in the process of pushing the extrusion plate 613, the push rod 612 on the surface of the threaded block 610 pushes the trigger rod 76, thereby pressing the contact switch on the trigger rod 76, so that the solenoid valve 72 is opened. When the push rod 612 contacts the trigger rod 76, the test tube 611 is located below the sample tube 1 41 and the sample tube 2 42. When the threaded block 610 stops moving, the test tube 611 is still located below the sample tube 1 41 and the sample tube 2 42.

[0074] When the push rod 612 pushes the trigger rod 76, the bonding plate 75 and the rotating shaft 74 move in a direction away from the electromagnetic valve 72 with the rotation connection with the fixed bar 73 as the axis. At this time, the electromagnetic valve 72 and the bonding plate 75 change from a closed state to an open state, and the tension spring 77 is stretched.

[0075] When the solenoid valve 72 is in the open state, the distilled water in the sample tube 1 41 flows into the control group in the test tube 611 through the solenoid valve 72 at the bottom of the sample tube 1 41, and the sample mixture in the sample tube 2 42 flows into the experimental group in the test tube 611 through the solenoid valve 72 at the bottom of the sample tube 2 42. When the liquid inside the sample tube 1 41 and the sample tube 2 42 completely enters the test tube 611, the staff presses the operation button on the outer wall of the device body 1 to extend the telescopic end of the electric telescopic rod 61, so that the follower ring 62 drives the linkage shaft 511 to move horizontally toward the side close to the rotating shaft 510, and the linkage shaft 511 is reinserted into the interior of the rotating shaft 510. When the electric telescopic rod 61 After the telescopic end is completely extended, the staff then presses the operating button on the outer wall of the device body 1 to rotate the output shaft of the servo motor 21. As known from the first embodiment, the spring spring 59 accumulates force during the rotation of the output shaft of the servo motor 21. When the output shaft of the servo motor 21 completes the rotation of the preset number of circles, the output shaft stops rotating. Then the staff presses the operating button on the outer wall of the device body 1 to retract the telescopic end of the electric telescopic rod 61, so that the linkage shaft 511 is completely separated from the rotating shaft 510, and further the rotating shaft 510 loses the restriction of the linkage shaft 511 and the concentric shaft 512. At this time, the spring spring 59 in the restriction disk 58 releases the stored force, so that the rotating shaft 510 is reversed.

[0076] During the process of the rotating shaft 510 reversing, the reciprocating screw 66 is driven to rotate, so that the threaded block 610 moves horizontally along the guide rod 69 toward the side close to the disc 65, until the force stored in the limiting disc 58 is completely released. At this time, the threaded block 610 has moved to the initial position, and the detection and analysis of microorganisms can be carried out at this time;

[0077] By pushing the extrusion plate 613 through the threaded block 610, the liquid in the sample tube 1 41 and the sample tube 2 42 is introduced into the test tube 611. Compared with the method of adding distilled water, mixed liquid and detection liquid into the test tube 611 twice in the prior art, the present device adds distilled water and mixed liquid into the corresponding test tube 611 at the same time as the detection liquid is added. This synchronization can eliminate the influence of the time difference and ensure the strict comparison between the control group and the experimental group. In addition, multiple steps can be completed at the same time through one operation, which significantly reduces the number of steps required to be performed during the experiment, thereby shortening the overall experimental time, and at the same time reduces the opportunity for operators to directly contact samples and reagents, reducing the risk of contamination.

[0078] By pushing the rod 612 to contact and disengage from the trigger rod 76, the solenoid valve 72 can be opened and closed in time, thereby avoiding the situation in the prior art where the liquid in the sample tube 1 41 and the sample tube 2 42 drips onto the operating table during the process of introducing the sample tube 611 due to staff errors, thereby contaminating the operating table and requiring additional cleaning work. In addition, when the liquid drips onto the operating table, it cannot be guaranteed that the quantitative relationship between the sample tube 1 41 and the sample tube 2 42 introduced into the test tube 611 is consistent with the requirements, thereby causing the test to be invalid and requiring re-testing.

[0079] The above are merely embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
