DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0038] The principles and features of the present invention are described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. The examples given are only used to explain the present invention and are not used to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0039] The utility model provides the following preferred embodiments:

[0040] like Figure 1-Figure 7As shown, a calprotectin detection kit includes a detection shell 11, a sample tube 13, a substrate 24, a metering mechanism, a switching mechanism and two detection test strips 12, the substrate 24 is slidably arranged inside the detection shell 11, and the two detection test strips 12 are symmetrically arranged above the substrate 24, and the substrate 24 is used to support and install the detection test strips 12 so as to drive the movement of the detection test strips 12 later, and the sample tube 13 is installed at the top of the detection shell 11, and the sample tube 13 is located above one of the detection test strips 12, specifically, the sample tube 13 is located above the sample pad in one of the detection test strips 12, that is, the sample can be dripped onto the sample pad in the detection test strip 12 through the sample tube 13, and it should be noted that the top surface of the detection test strip 12 is in contact with the inner wall of the detection shell 11;

[0041] The test paper 12 includes a sample pad, a colloidal gold labeling pad, a nitrocellulose membrane and a water-absorbing paper, and the sample pad, the colloidal gold labeling pad, the nitrocellulose membrane and the water-absorbing paper are overlapped in sequence. It should be noted that the test paper 12 is a prior art and will not be specifically described here;

[0042] The metering mechanism includes a scale line 23, two baffles 16 and a moving assembly for driving the two baffles 16 to move. The scale line 23 is located on one side of the sample tube 13. The two baffles 16 are symmetrically plugged on both sides of the sample tube 13, and the baffles 16 are slidably connected to the sample tube 13. Specifically, a sealing member is provided between the baffle 16 and the sample tube 13. Before adding the sample and after heating the sample, the baffle 16 can block the sample tube 13 to ensure the sealing effect inside the detection housing 11, prevent foreign matter from entering and affecting the detection accuracy, and at the same time The sample dripped into the sample tube 13 can also be received, which is conducive to the subsequent measurement of the sample amount. The moving component is located between the sample tube 13 and the two baffles 16. It should be noted that the sample tube 13 is made of a transparent material, which is convenient for comparing the sample liquid level with the scale on the scale line 23, and then convenient for knowing the amount of added sample, and can achieve the measurement and control of the amount of sample dripped into the sample pad of the test paper 12, ensuring that the amount of sample dripped is within the specified range, and avoiding too much or too little sample dripped to affect the detection accuracy;

[0043] In the initial state, the ends of the two baffles 16 that are close to each other abut against each other. When dripping the sample, the sample is first dripped onto the two baffles 16, and the baffles 16 receive the sample. The sample amount is observed using the scale line 23. When the amount of the dripped sample is within the specified range, the baffles 16 are moved using the moving assembly so that the two baffles 16 are away from each other. At this time, the sample on the baffles 16 can drip onto the sample pad in the test paper 12.

[0044] The switching mechanism includes a strip groove 26, a slide bar 27, a push block 28 and a positioning assembly for positioning the push block 28. The strip groove 26 is provided at one end of the detection housing 11. The slide bar 27 is inserted into the strip groove 26 and is slidably arranged in the strip groove 26. One end of the slide bar 27 is fixedly connected to the substrate 24, and the other end of the slide bar 27 is fixedly connected to the push block 28. The positioning assembly is located between the push block 28 and the detection housing 11. The positioning assembly can fix the position of the push block 28, and then can realize the fixation of the position of the substrate 24, so as to avoid the substrate 24 from moving randomly and causing the detection test paper 12 to move, thereby ensuring the stability of the detection test paper 12 during the detection process, which is conducive to improving the detection accuracy.

[0045] The replacement component can drive the substrate 24 to move inside the detection shell 11, and then drive the two detection test strips 12 to move, adjust the position of the detection test strips 12, and then facilitate two tests on the sample. This not only avoids the need to take an additional test box for retesting when an operation is incorrect, thereby increasing the test cost, but also the two tests increase the accuracy of the test results.

[0046] like Figure 1-Figure 7 As shown, the moving assembly includes two end plates 17, two mounting plates 18, two guide rods 19 and four second springs 34;

[0047] The two end plates 17 are respectively fixed on the sides of the two baffles 16 that are away from each other, the two mounting plates 18 are symmetrically fixedly installed on both sides of the top of the detection housing 11, and the two guide rods 19 are symmetrically fixed between the two ends of the two mounting plates 18. One end of each end plate 17 is sleeved and slidably set on a guide rod 19, and each two second springs 34 are sleeved on the surface of a guide rod 19, and the two ends of each second spring 34 are respectively fixedly connected to the end plate 17 and the mounting plate 18;

[0048] In the initial state, the two baffles 16 are close to each other and pressed against each other. At this time, the four second springs 34 are all in a compressed but not completely compressed state. When the two baffles 16 need to be moved away from each other, the end plates 17 on both sides are pulled, and the end plates 17 drive the baffles 16 to move, so that the two baffles 16 are moved away from each other. At this time, the second springs 34 are compressed again;

[0049] When the sample on the baffle 16 drops onto the test paper 12 , the end plate 17 is released, and the baffle 16 can be reset under the action of the second spring 34 .

[0050] like Figure 1-Figure 7 As shown, one end of each end plate 17 is fixedly connected to an inclined rod 20, the two inclined rods 20 are staggered, and one end of each inclined rod 20 away from the end plate 17 is fixed to a toggle plate 21;

[0051] During use, when the two end plates 17 need to be moved, the two toggle plates 21 can be pinched by one hand at the same time so that the two toggle plates 21 can be brought closer to each other. At this time, the two end plates 17 can be driven to move under the action of the two inclined rods 20. At this time, the two baffles 16 can be moved simultaneously with one hand.

[0052] like Figure 1-Figure 7 As shown, an inclined scraper 22 for guiding is fixed to the inner wall of the sample adding tube 13, and the bottom end surface of the inclined scraper 22 is in contact with the upper surface of the baffle 16. Specifically, the inclined scraper 22 is made of silicone material. The inclined scraper 22 made of silicone material is arranged inside the sample adding tube 13, which not only plays a role in guiding materials, but also can scrape the surface of the baffle 16 by using the inclined scraper 22 when the two baffles 16 are away from each other, so as to avoid sample residue on the surface of the baffle 16, so that the sample can be more completely dropped on the sample pad on the test paper 12.

[0053] like Figure 1-Figure 7 As shown, a sealing strip is provided on each side of the two baffles 16 close to each other to achieve a sealing effect, which is beneficial to improve the sealing effect between the two baffles 16 and prevent the sample from flowing out from between the two baffles 16 during the metering process.

[0054] like Figure 1-Figure 7 As shown, the positioning assembly includes two countersunk holes 32, two first springs 33, two balls 30 and four positioning grooves 29 matched with the balls 30;

[0055] Two countersunk holes 32 are symmetrically opened on the upper and lower sides of the push block 28. A support frame 31 for mounting the ball 30 is slidably arranged inside each countersunk hole 32. Each ball 30 is mounted inside a support frame 31. The ball 30 can roll inside the support frame 31. That is, when the push block 28 moves, rolling friction is formed between the ball 30 and the detection housing 11, and the friction force is small. Each first spring 33 is fixed inside a countersunk hole 32, and the other end of each first spring 33 is fixedly connected to the support frame 31.

[0056] The four positioning grooves 29 are respectively located on both sides of the push block 28, and the four positioning grooves 29 are symmetrically opened on the detection housing 11, and the two balls 30 are respectively inserted into two of the positioning grooves 29;

[0057] In the initial state, the two balls 30 are respectively located in the two positioning grooves 29 on the same side, and the positioning of the push block 28 can be achieved by the engagement between the balls 30 and the positioning grooves 29;

[0058] When the push block 28 is moved to replace the test paper 12, the push block 28 is pushed. At this time, the ball 30 is disengaged from the inside of the positioning groove 29 and moves into the inside of the countersunk hole 32. The first spring 33 is deformed. When the push block 28 moves to between the two positioning grooves 29 on the other side, under the action of the first spring 33, the ball 30 can be driven to reset, so that the ball 30 can be clamped into the inside of the positioning groove 29 again, thereby positioning the push block 28. At this time, the other test paper 12 is moved to the middle of the detection shell 11, and the adjustment of the position of the test paper 12 is completed.

[0059] like Figure 1-Figure 7 As shown, two guide rails 25 are fixedly installed inside the detection shell 11 and on the side of the substrate 24 away from the test paper 12. The substrate 24 is slidably arranged inside the detection shell 11 through the guide rails 25. The guide rails 25 provide guidance for the substrate 24 so that the substrate 24 can move along a specific direction.

[0060] like Figure 1-Figure 7 As shown, an observation window 14 is provided on the surface of the detection housing 11 for easy observation. The observation window 14 is located above one of the detection test strips 12. Specifically, the observation window 14 is located above the nitrocellulose membrane in one of the detection test strips 12, so as to facilitate observation of the detection data.

[0061] like Figure 1-Figure 7 As shown, a handle 15 that is convenient for holding is fixed to one end of the detection housing 11 away from the pushing block 28 , and the handle 15 is convenient for the user to take the plate test kit.

[0062] like Figure 1-Figure 7 As shown, the surfaces of the handle 15 and the push block 28 are provided with anti-skid stripes for preventing skidding, which is beneficial to improving the friction between the user's hand and the handle 15 or the push block 28, making it easier to use.

[0063] The beneficial effects of the present invention are specifically embodied in that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is 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.
