[0118] When used specifically:
[0119] The sampling module 2 is specifically divided into a chip loading module 201 and a liquid and gas path module 202; first, the chip is inserted from the instrument sampling port 8, and the chip scanner 207 on the liquid and gas path module 202 scans the QR code of the chip to confirm whether the chip detection items are correct and whether the chip is within the validity period. If it does not meet the requirements, the machine will alarm and prompt an error message. At the same time, the chip insertion sensor 2033 senses the chip, and the chip sampling dial 203 slides to move the chip to put it into the chip sampling slot 204. A chip limiter structure 206 is set behind the chip sampling slot 204 to prevent the chip from being placed beyond the preset position of the chip sampling slot 204. Then the chip moves to the liquid and gas path module 202 driven by the chip injection slot 204, the liquid and gas path control motor 2021 is started, and the annular bracket 2023 is pressed down to make the injection port interface 20224 (air intake pressurization effect) located on the annular bracket 2023 seal the injection cavity of the docking chip, and the external gas-liquid port interface 2028 (sealed treatment, gas and liquid cannot enter) seals the external gas-liquid port of the docking chip, and then the air intake pressurization is carried out through the injection port connector to make the sample in the chip injection cavity slowly move forward along the chip microchannel. When it reaches the chip conductive rubber valve, the liquid detection rod 2024 senses the capacitance change, and the chip valve control motor 2022 of the instrument is started. The chip valve pressure rod 2027 presses down the valve under the control of the motor to prevent the chip liquid from moving forward.
[0120] The chip sample pusher 203 pushes the chip under the control of the motor so that the chip reaches the incubation module 3. The incubation module 3 has a heating plate 30101 and a heat preservation plate 30102, so that the chip reaction chamber performs sample immune reaction at a preset temperature.
[0121] After the reaction is completed, the U-shaped handle 403 of the cleaning module 4 moves the chip to the cleaning module 4. The cleaning module 4 has a cleaning module gas-liquid path component 402 that can clean the chip after the reaction. The cleaning module liquid detection rod 4027 on the cleaning module annular bracket 4024 can sense whether the liquid has reached the valve. After sensing the signal, the external liquid path and gas path port of the chip are pressurized to allow the cleaned liquid to enter the waste liquid cavity of the chip. After repeating this 3-4 times, the chip cleaning is completed, and then the U-shaped handle 403 moves the chip to the incubation module 3, and the incubation module 3 rises to the corresponding position of the chip detection module 5.
[0122] The detection handle 503 of the chip detection module 5 moves the chip to the chip carrier 504, and the chip carrier 504 can move so that the optical path detection component 501 performs optical signal detection on the chip reaction chamber. After the detection is completed, the disposal handle 509, under the control of the motor, moves the chip into the disposal tank 9 for biological waste treatment. The detection results can be displayed on the display screen 7 of the instrument, and can also be printed through the built-in printer 10.
