TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of algal testing, in particular to an algal testing device with a pre-treatment function and a testing method. BACKGROUND
[0002] An algal testing device is a special instrument for qualitative and quantitative analysis of target components in marine or freshwater algal samples. The algal sample system often has the characteristics of complex components, multiple background interference and large target content difference. The testing device usually combines standard substances and calibration procedures to stably collect sample signals and process data output to obtain reliable test results.
[0003] The existing testing devices for fucoidan and other algal components generally lack a front-end pre-treatment device integrated with the detection host. The processing flow has low integration, and the sample still needs to rely on external oscillators and centrifuges and other dispersed equipment to complete the cell wall breaking and solid-liquid separation before detection, resulting in long operation process, frequent equipment switching, multiple sample transfer times, easy cross contamination and batch differences. Even if some devices integrate oscillation or centrifugation units, they are mostly simple combinations of single functions, lack reliable switching mechanisms for cell wall breaking and centrifugation conditions, and lack synchronous control of flow path opening and closing, still relying on manual cooperation, with low automation level, and difficult to meet the continuous and standardized rapid detection needs of algal samples.

[0022] After the preliminary extraction of fucoxanthin is completed, the control system switches the pretreatment device to the centrifugal mode, and starts the motor. The motor output shaft drives the end head assembly, and the end head assembly drives the two-way clutch mechanism to rotate quickly. The two-way clutch mechanism drives the supporting piece to rotate, and the supporting piece drives several double-cavity centrifugal tubes to rotate. Under the action of centrifugation, the fucoxanthin extract is thrown from the broken wall cavity into the overflow channel, and then enters the centrifugal cavity through the filter plate. The solid materials such as glass grinding beads with heavier weight are retained in the broken wall cavity. A small part of the solid materials enters the overflow channel with the extract, and then falls back into the broken wall cavity after centrifugation under the cooperation of the upward structure design of the overflow channel and the blocking effect of the filter plate, so as to complete the centrifugal separation of the extract and avoid the solid materials in the mixed solution entering the centrifugal cavity.
[0023] After centrifugation, the control system opens the second discharge port, and the extract passes through the second discharge port and the collection tank into the flow guide mechanism in the test host.

When the blending disc deflects, the sliding column is driven to move through the curved groove. Since the sliding block connected with the sliding column can only slide linearly in the limiting sliding groove, the entire two-way clutch mechanism can only reciprocate along the direction of the limiting sliding groove under the driving action of the blending disc. The two two-way clutch mechanisms are synchronously close or far away.
[0028] The control system starts the electromagnet in the magnetic sliding head and drives the two two-way clutch mechanisms to synchronously move away, so that the clutch block is embedded with the magnetic sliding head.

[0035] S3, the position of the bidirectional clutch is adjusted by using the adjusting mechanism, so that the bidirectional clutch is locked with the double-drive mechanism, the double-drive mechanism is started, and the double-drive mechanism drives the supporting piece to rotate through the bidirectional clutch, and the supporting piece centrifugally separates the extract in the double-cavity centrifugal tube;
[0036] S4, the separated extract is filtered and then delivered to the detection module in the test host, and the detection module measures the content of fucoxanthin in the extract;

[0040] 2. The displacement control of the two-way clutch mechanism by the blending mechanism enables the same pre-treatment device to realize quick and reliable switching between the oscillation mode and the centrifugal mode without changing the power source or the carrier, thereby connecting the cell wall breaking and extraction with the centrifugal separation into a continuous controllable process.
[0041] 3. In the oscillation mode, the end assembly drives the two-way clutch mechanism to reciprocate, thereby driving the carrier and the mixed solution in the double-cavity centrifugal tube to reciprocate and oscillate, so that the glass grinding beads break the cell wall of algae and promote the release of fucoxanthin and the mixing of the solution, thereby improving the extraction efficiency.
[0042] 4. In the centrifugal mode, the overflow channel is opened, and the extract is introduced into the centrifugal cavity under the centrifugal action; the glass grinding beads and other solid objects are preferentially retained in the cell wall breaking cavity; a small amount of solid objects entering the overflow channel with the liquid fall back to the cell wall breaking cavity after the centrifugation is completed under the blocking action of the overflow channel inclined structure and the filter plate, thereby reducing the probability of the solid objects entering the centrifugal cavity and the downstream filtration and detection module, and avoiding blockage and pollution.
[0043] 5.
