DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0036] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more clearly understood, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

The reaction containers 32 are respectively connected to the sampling tube 13 in the injection module 1 and the sampling needle 24 in the reagent module 2 through a delivery hose, and are connected to the analyzer mainframe 31 through a delivery hose. After the sample and the reagent are mixed and reacted in the reaction container 32, they are transported to the analyzer mainframe 31 through the delivery hose for analysis.

[0039] Combination Figures 3 to 6 As shown, in this embodiment, the sampling module 1 also includes: a sampling module frame 11, a three-axis motion platform 12, the three-axis motion platform 12 is installed on the sampling module frame 11, and a placement table 111 is provided on the sampling module frame 11 to place the sample bottle 4.

[0040] The sampling tube 13 is mounted on the Z-axis slide 121 of the three-axis motion platform 12 and is disposed above the placement table 111 . The sampling tube 13 moves up and down under the control of the Z-axis slide 121 to sample the sample bottle 4 .

[0041] Among them, Figures 9 to 13 As shown, the sampling tube 13 includes: an outer tube body 131, a plurality of inner tube bodies 132, a carbon fiber tube 133 arranged between the outer tube body 131 and the inner tube body 132, and an upper joint 134 and a lower joint 135 respectively installed above and below the outer tube body 131. The carbon fiber tube 133 with high hardness is arranged between the outer tube body 131 and the inner tube body 132 to ensure the strength and verticality of the sampling tube 13. In addition, the upper joint 134 and the lower joint 135 are both provided with a plurality of through holes 136, and the two ends of the inner tube body 132 are respectively connected to the through holes 136 of the upper joint 134 and the lower joint 135. In this embodiment, the number of through holes 136 on the upper joint 134 and the lower joint 135 is the same as the number of the analyzer host 31 in the analysis module 3.

[0044] When the telescopic connecting shaft 1421 of the micro motor 142 performs telescopic movement, one end thereof slightly rotates around the second protruding column 1422, and the other end acts on the liquid baffle 141. Under the limiting pulling action of the telescopic connecting shaft 1421 of the micro power device 142, the other end of the first protruding column 1411 at the end of the liquid baffle 141 performs a rotational movement along the rotating shaft 1412, thereby realizing the two states of rotating out or retracting the liquid baffle 141. Figure 7 The liquid baffle 141 is retracted in the middle, and the sampling tube 13 is extended to perform sampling normally. Figure 8 The middle shows the state of the liquid baffle plate 141 being rotated out. At this time, the sampling tube 13 moves to the retracted state along the Z-axis slide 121. The liquid baffle plate 141 is located below the sampling tube 13 and rotates out to the bottom of the sampling tube 13 to shield the sampling tube 13. At the same time, a liquid storage tank 1413 is provided on the liquid baffle plate 141 to hold the residual liquid dripping from the sampling tube 13 to prevent the residual liquid from falling into the sample bottle 4 on the placement table 111.

[0045] In this embodiment, a sensor 143 is provided on one side of the liquid baffle plate 141, the sensor 143 is mounted on the Z-axis slide 121, and the liquid baffle plate 141 is provided with a protrusion 1414, and the sensor 143 senses the position of the protrusion 1414 to sense the position of the liquid baffle plate 141. The sensor 143 is a displacement sensor, such as an existing capacitive proximity switch, a photoelectric proximity switch, etc.

[0046] A sample bottle rack 112 is provided on the placement table 111 to place sample bottles 4 in batches for batch sampling; at the same time, a sampling tube cleaning box 15 is provided on one side of the sampling module frame 11.

[0047] Combination Fig.15 and Fig.16 As shown, in this embodiment, the reagent module 2 further includes: a reagent module frame 21, a transmission device 22 and a lifting device 23, and two sets of the transmission device 22 and the lifting device 23 are respectively provided and installed on both sides of the reagent module frame 21.

[0048] A movable platform 221 is provided on the transmission device 22 to place the reagent bottle 5 , and the movable platform 221 moves outward under the control of the transmission device 22 to replace the reagent bottle 5 .

[0049] The lifting device 23 is provided with a lifting platform 231 , which is installed directly above the movable platform 221 , and the sampling needle 24 is installed on the lifting platform 231 , and the sampling needle 24 moves up and down under the control of the lifting platform 231 to sample the reagent bottle 5 .

Secondly, the sealing block 241 is connected to the lifting platform 231 through a spring, which can increase the downward pressure of the sealing block 241 during sampling and improve the sealing performance.

[0052] The above description is only a preferred specific implementation of the present invention. Any changes or substitutions that can be easily conceived by a technician familiar with the technical field within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
