Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model particularly relates to a reagent storage device for a protein analyzer. Background Art

[0002] In fully automatic medical analysis instruments, the storage of reagents is indispensable. The current technical solution is that different types of reagents are placed on different numbered positions on the reagent tray, and the reagent information is manually input and set on the host. After the reagent is replaced, the reagent information needs to be re-entered. For example, the reagent storage device of a specific protein analyzer announced by the authorization announcement number CN201837631U is provided with a reagent bin for accommodating reagent bottles, and the reagent bottles are limited by opening a limiting groove in the reagent bin, but the size of the limiting groove is determined when the factory is customized, and the capacity of the reagent bottle in actual use will also be different, and the height of the reagent bottle will be different, that is to say, the reagent bin in the above-mentioned reagent storage device can only be applied to the reagent bottle of a specific specification. When the height of the reagent bottle is too high, the limiting effect of the limiting groove on the reagent bottle is not good, which leads to the limitation of the scope of use.

[0023] A reagent storage device for a protein analyzer, referring to Figure 1-Figure 4 , including a base plate 1 and a reagent bin arranged on the base plate 1, the base plate 1 is provided with a driving assembly for driving the reagent bin to rotate, the reagent bin includes a locking assembly, a shell 2 and a column 3 arranged at the bottom of the shell 2, the column 3 is equipped with a reagent disk 4 and a fixed disk 5 in the vertical direction, and the fixed disk 5 can be locked by the locking assembly after moving up and down along the column 3; a plurality of first limiting grooves 51 are opened on the fixed disk 5, and a second limiting groove 41 adapted to the first limiting groove 51 is provided on the reagent disk 4, and the two ends of the reagent bottle can be limited in the first limiting groove 51 and the second limiting groove 41 respectively.

[0024] Furthermore, the locking assembly includes an adjusting member 61 and a plurality of locking positions 62 arranged in the vertical direction of the column 3. A mounting cap 63 is movably arranged on the top of the column 3. The adjusting member 61 abuts against the lower end of the fixed plate 5 after being connected to any locking position 62. The lower end of the mounting cap 63 can be pressed against the upper end of the fixed plate 5 under the action of external force.

[0025] Furthermore, a threaded section 31 is disposed at the upper end of the column 3 , and the mounting cap 63 is moved up and down by cooperating with the thread of the column 3 .

[0026] Furthermore, the locking position 62 is a threaded hole, and the adjusting member 61 is a bolt.

[0027] Furthermore, the driving assembly includes a rotating motor, a first synchronous wheel 71 is connected to the rotating motor, a second synchronous wheel 72 is provided on the reagent chamber, a synchronous belt 73 is sleeved between the first synchronous wheel 71 and the second synchronous wheel 72, the rotating motor drives the first synchronous wheel 71 to rotate, and links the second synchronous wheel 72, thereby driving the reagent chamber to rotate.

[0028] Furthermore, a bracket 8 is provided on one side of the base plate 1 , and a card reader 9 is provided on the bracket 8 .

[0029] The working principle of the utility model is:

[0030] like Figure 1 As described above, the rotating motor is started, and the rotating motor drives the first synchronous wheel 71 to rotate, thereby linking the second synchronous wheel 72 through the synchronous belt 73, and the second synchronous wheel 72 drives the reagent compartment to rotate. When the reagent compartment is rotating, the card reader 9 located on one side of the reagent compartment reads the electronic tag on the reagent bottle. Since this belongs to the prior art and is fully disclosed in the patent with authorization announcement number CN201837631U, its working principle will not be repeated here.

[0031] When you need to replace reagent bottles of different heights, Figure 2It is the initial state. When it is necessary to replace the reagent bottle with a smaller height, first turn the adjusting piece 61 to release the connection between the adjusting piece 61 and the locking position 62. At this time, move the fixed plate 5 downward along the column 3 (when the height of the reagent bottle becomes larger, move the fixed plate upward). When the fixed plate 5 moves to the specified height, connect the adjusting piece 61 to the corresponding locking position 62, and then turn the mounting cap 63 to screw the mounting cap 63 downward until the lower end of the mounting cap 63 is tightly pressed against the fixed plate 5. At this time, the fixed plate 5 can be maintained at the specified height because the upper end of the fixed plate 5 is pressed by the mounting cap 63 and the lower end of the fixed plate 5 is supported and pressed by the adjusting piece 61. A first limiting groove 51 is provided on the fixed disk 5, and a second limiting groove 41 adapted to the first limiting groove 51 is provided on the reagent disk 4. The upper end of the reagent bottle is limited in the first limiting groove 51, and the lower end of the reagent bottle is limited in the second limiting groove 41, so that the limiting of reagent bottles of different heights can be adapted, and the scope of use is wider. In the above technology, as embodiment 1, the adjusting member 61 can be implemented by selecting bolts. Since the use of this storage device is limited to storage, the rotating motor only rotates the reagent disk 4 so that the card reader 9 can read the electronic tag on the reagent bottle; therefore, the rotating motor does not need an excessively high rotation speed, that is to say, the connection strength requirement between the fixed disk 5 and the column 3 is not high, so it is proved through structural testing that the mounting cap 63 and the adjusting member 61 have a tight limiting effect on the fixed disk 5, and when the column 3 rotates, the fixed disk 5 is driven to rotate synchronously, and the fixed disk 5 does not shift. The reagent disk 4 mentioned above can select the bottom of the shell 2 as the reagent disk 4 or install the reagent disk 4 above the bottom of the shell 2, and the lower end of the column 3 can be connected with the reagent disk 4 in an integrally formed manner or in a detachable manner.

[0032] The present application addresses the defects of the existing limit bins. When it is necessary to match the limit of reagent bottles of different heights, the fixed plate 5 is moved to a specified height in the vertical direction of the column 3, and then the fixed plate 5 is fixed to the column 3 by a locking assembly, so as to adjust the distance between the fixed plate 5 and the reagent plate 4 to match the limit and storage of reagent bottles of different heights.

[0033] Although the utility model is described in detail with reference to the above embodiments, it is obvious to those skilled in the art through this disclosure that various changes or modifications can be made to the utility model without departing from the principle and spirit of the utility model defined by the claims. Therefore, the detailed description of the embodiments of the present disclosure is only used to explain, not to limit the utility model, but the scope of protection is limited by the content of the claims.
