[0025] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.
[0026] Example 1: Please refer to Figure 1-5 A DNA probe processing device that prevents falling off includes a pedestal 1 and a gantry 7. An X-axis motor 11 is installed on the left side above the pedestal 1. The output shaft of the X-axis motor 11 is fixedly connected to a linear screw 8. The linear screw 8 is sleeved with a threaded seat 9 on the outside. The front end of the threaded seat 9 is fixedly connected to a vertical frame 10. The front end of the vertical frame 10 is fixedly connected to a fixed plate 18. The bottom end of the fixed plate 18 is fixed with a lifting cylinder 13. The output shaft of the lifting cylinder 13 is provided with a push rod 14. The bottom end of the push rod 14 is fixedly connected to a pipetting rack 15. Two sets of injections are installed inside the pipetting rack 15. The injection cylinder 19 has a plurality of piston rods 20 fixed at the bottom end of the injection cylinder 19, and a plurality of injection needle tubes 21 are sleeved on the outside of the piston rods 20. The bottom end of the injection needle tube 21 is sleeved with a pipetting head 17, and a group of hangers 22 are fixed on the outside of the pipetting head 17. The hangers 22 are fixedly connected to the pipetting rack 15. The pipetting head 17 has a larger diameter than the injection needle tube 21. The top of the injection needle tube 21 is assembled in the pipetting rack 15. There are a plurality of injection needle tubes 21, and the injection needle tubes 21 are arranged at equal intervals. A display 6 is installed on the right side of the gantry 7 to control the movement of motors and cylinders at various locations of the device.
[0027] Specifically, Figure 1 and Figure 3As shown, the injection needle 21 mainly adopts an automatically driven liquid suction method. First, the hanger 22 is connected to multiple groups of pipetting heads 17 and hung together to the bottom of the pipetting rack 15. When hanging, the top of each group of pipetting heads 17 is aligned with the injection needle 21. After assembly, the injection cylinder 19 pushes the piston rod 20 downward to discharge the air in the injection needle 21 and the pipetting head 17. When the pipetting head 17 moves to the right orifice plate for liquid suction and dripping operations, the injection cylinder 19 pushes multiple groups of piston rods 20 to move downward in the injection needle 21 at the same time, and the DNA experimental liquid absorbed in the pipetting head 17 is dripped into the left orifice plate through air thrust. Multiple groups of pipetting heads 17 are fixed by the hanger 22, and multiple groups of pipetting heads 17 can be replaced at one time. The liquid suction amount is determined by the lifting distance of the piston rod 20. The liquid will not spread to the injection needle 21. The pipetting heads 17 are replaced in batches without causing pollution, preventing the problem of loose connection and falling off caused by frequent replacement of a single pipetting head 17.
[0028] Embodiment 2: A set of corner wheels 23 are installed at each of the four corners of the top of the fixed plate 18, and a Z-axis motor 12 is installed at one set of corner wheels 23. A set of belts 25 are respectively sleeved on the outside of the corner wheels 23, and a Z-axis moving plate 24 is sleeved in the middle of the belts 25. Two sets of reserved wheels are installed on the top of the Z-axis moving plate 24 and connected to the belts 25;
[0029] Specifically, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, at the fixed plate 18, a group of corner wheels 23 are driven to rotate by the Z-axis motor 12, and multiple groups of corner wheels 23 are driven to rotate together by the belt 25, driving the Z-axis movable plate 24 to move linearly along the Y-axis, driving the pipette rack 15 to move above the well plate, and using the belt 25 and the corner wheel 23 to drive in a linked manner to reduce the load and avoid the axial force affecting the stability of the movement, thereby ensuring that one or more rows of injection needles 21 can be stably installed and operated.
[0030] Embodiment 3: A reserved groove is provided in the middle position inside the pedestal 1, a group of transmission grooves 2 are arranged on both sides of the reserved groove, and a transmission belt 3 is installed in each transmission groove 2. A double-headed cylinder 27 is fixed in the reserved groove, a group of side panels 4 are fixed on the edges of both sides of the pedestal 1, a group of correction plates 5 are fixed on one side of the side panels 4 and the output end of the double-headed cylinder 27, an infrared reflection sheet 28 is arranged at the correction plate 5, infrared sensors 16 are arranged on both sides of the bottom of the pipetting rack 15, a guide rod 26 is fixedly connected in the reserved groove, and a group of movable sleeves 29 are sleeved on both ends of the outer side of the guide rod 26, and hinged frames 30 are respectively hinged on both sides of the movable sleeve 29, and there are four groups of hinged frames 30 in total, and the hinged frames 30 constitute a rhombus support structure;
[0031] Specifically, Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, on the conveyor belt 3, two groups of well plates are placed on the left and right sides, one group contains DNA liquid, which needs to be sucked by the injection needle 21 and dripped into the other group. Before sucking, the two groups of correction plates 5 located on the inside are driven by the double-headed cylinder 27 to clamp the well plates to fix the position of the well plates, and the infrared sensor 16 emits infrared light to the infrared reflective sheet 28 to detect that the well plates are in place, and then the probe sucking operation is performed to ensure that the pipette head 17 can be stably inserted into the tube of the well plate without touching the edge to cause deviation, operation failure and probe damage.
[0032] Working principle: The staff places the multi-well plates on two groups of conveyor belts 3 in a row, with an empty well plate on the left and a well plate containing DNA liquid on the right. The two groups of correction plates 5 located on the inside are driven by the double-headed cylinder 27 to clamp the well plates to fix the position of the well plates. The infrared sensor 16 emits infrared light to the infrared reflective sheet 28 to detect that the well plates are in place, and then the probe suction operation is performed. During the operation, the X-axis motor 11 drives the pipetting rack 15 to move left and right, and the Z-axis motor 12 drives a group of corner wheels 23 to rotate. The belt 25 drives multiple groups of corner wheels 23 to rotate together, and drives the Z-axis moving plate 24 to move back and forth to perform liquid suction and dripping operations. After completing the DNA operation of one group of well plates, the conveyor belt 3 drives backward to perform the next group of operations, and the staff takes away the two groups of well plates that have completed the operation and puts new well plates in front. Since the amount of DNA liquid absorbed is determined by the lifting distance of the piston rod 20, the liquid will not spread to the injection needle 21. Therefore, the pipetting heads 17 can be replaced in batches without causing pollution.
