Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of breath measurement equipment, in particular to a novel card-type sample automatic detection structure. Background Art
[0002] As people's quality of life improves, they pay more attention to their own health problems, especially to diseases that are contagious and can cause cancer. The diagnosis of Helicobacter pylori infection has emerged. The carbon 14 breath test for the diagnosis of Helicobacter pylori infection is widely used for its low cost, fast detection, safety, accuracy and low risk.
[0003] The card-type carbon 14 breath test diagnostic instrument is an instrument that detects the carbon dioxide gas sampling card exhaled by the subject after taking urea carbon 14 capsules for a period of time. Its main principle is to use a Geiger counter to count the number of carbon isotopes carbon 14 contained in the breath card to determine whether the subject is infected with Helicobacter pylori.
[0004] The measurement room of the card-type carbon 14 breath test diagnostic instrument is the place where the exhaled carbon dioxide gas sampling card is tested after the subject takes the urea carbon 14 capsule for a period of time. The measurement room is a cavity formed by installing a Geiger counter tube on each side of a set of stainless steel supports. The detection window size of the Geiger counter tube is basically the same as the inspection window of the gas sample collection card. This is to ensure that sufficient exhaled carbon dioxide gas is collected within a unit time to the greatest extent and is fully detected. In this way, a positioning device is required to both sense and feedback the insertion position of the sample card and trigger the automatic detection function.
[0005] The existing positioning device on the market uses a reflective optical coupler detection device. This device has a great disadvantage that the light sensitivity is difficult to control and is easily disturbed by external environmental factors. For example, when there is no sampling card inserted but sunlight or light directly shines on the sampling slot in the measurement room, the reflective optical coupler will detect that there is a card and automatically detect it. It is also possible that when the light is too dim, the reflective optical coupler cannot detect the presence of the sampling card in the measurement room when the sampling card is inserted and will not detect it. These two types of failures account for more than 30% of the total instrument failures.
[0006] Therefore, everyone tried to improve the situation by making the size of the injection port smaller so that it could only accommodate the entry of the card and minimize the interference of external light on the measurement chamber. This design also has great shortcomings. First, it increases the difficulty of installation. Mechanical installation without margin adjustment not only requires higher precision in mechanical processing, but also requires high installation skills of operators, which increases the defective rate, increases production costs, and wastes a lot of production materials. Secondly, the end-user experience is particularly bad, which increases the difficulty of operation. Without a relatively wide guide groove, the operator must align the injection slot very accurately to insert the sample into the measurement chamber.
[0007] This design solves the problem of photosensitivity failure, but it also adds difficulties to production and use. The annual domestic sales volume of carbon 14 breath test diagnostic instruments is around 100,000 units, and several hundred thousand units are sold to Southeast Asia, Central Asia and other regions, bringing a large amount of foreign exchange to the country. Due to the overall cyclical fluctuations in the world economy, buyers are becoming more and more sensitive to prices, which also hinders the application of high-cost new technologies in actual production products. Therefore, the cost of products and technologies that can be used to improve the defects of existing equipment must not be high, otherwise they cannot be truly used in actual production. Therefore, it is necessary to study a technical solution that can solve the problem of high failure rate of photosensitivity detection without increasing production costs and difficulty of use.

[0034] Example 1
[0035] See attached Figure 1 A novel card-type sample automatic detection structure of the present embodiment includes a supporting block 100 and a supporting block 200 that are arranged in cooperation with each other, and the sides of the supporting block 100 and the supporting block 200 that are in contact with each other are respectively provided with a groove 130 and a groove 230, and the groove 130 and the groove 230 cooperate to form a cavity for accommodating a sampling card 500; the supporting block 100 is provided with a penetrating mounting hole 110, and the supporting block 200 is provided with a penetrating mounting hole 210, and the mounting hole 110 and the mounting hole 210 are both provided with a Geiger counter tube 300, and the groove 130 and the groove 230 cooperate to form a cavity formed by the groove 130 and the groove 230. The opposing optical coupler 400 is configured to be locally stuck and between the opposing optical coupler 400 when the sampling card 500 is inserted. The structure of this embodiment detects the sampling card 500 by setting up a through-beam optical coupler 400. When the sampling card 500 is inserted into the cavity formed by the support block 100 and the support block 200, a part of the sampling card 500 will be inserted between the through-beam optical coupler 400 and form an obstruction. The through-beam optical coupler 400 detects the obstruction and sends out a detailed signal. Compared with the detection using a reflective optical coupler, it is more accurate and effectively reduces photosensitivity failures, and is lower in cost and more convenient to use.
[0036] In this embodiment, the side of the support block 100 close to the support block 200 is provided with a positioning column 120, and the side of the support block 200 close to the support block 100 is provided with a positioning hole 220, and the positioning column 120 can be inserted into the positioning hole 220 to fix the support block 100 and the support block 200. The positioning column 120 and the positioning hole 220 can be conveniently assembled and disassembled.
[0037] The through-beam optical coupler 400 is electrically connected to a controller, and the controller is electrically connected to the Geiger counter tube 300 and controls the power supply of the Geiger counter tube 300. When the through-beam optical coupler 400 detects an obstruction, it sends a signal to the controller, and the controller controls the Geiger counter tube 300 to be powered on to work, and controls the power-on time of the single Geiger counter tube 300 through a timer. When the time is up, the through-beam optical coupler 400 senses that there are still objects blocking the through-beam optical coupler 400, and the through-beam optical coupler 400 feeds back information to the controller, and the controller issues an alarm to prompt the user to take out the sampling card 500. The through-beam optical coupler 400 is fixedly connected to the support block 1 100 or the support block 2 200 by screws. The controller of this embodiment is a prior art in the field, so it is not described in detail.
[0038] The sampling card 500 is a carbon dioxide gas sampling card. The volume of the cavity formed by the cooperation of the groove 1 130 and the groove 2 230 is greater than 10-15% of the volume of the sampling card 500. The size of the mounting hole 1 110 and the mounting hole 2 210 is adapted to the Geiger counter tube 300 so that when the Geiger counter tube 300 is installed in the mounting hole 1 110 or the mounting hole 2 210, the Geiger counter tube 300 is flush with the surface of the mounting hole 1 110 or the mounting hole 2 210. It can effectively ensure that when the sampling card 500 is inserted into the cavity, the sampling card 500 will partially block the incident optical coupler 400, thereby starting monitoring.
[0039] The above-described embodiments only express a certain implementation method of the utility model, and the description thereof is relatively specific and detailed, but it cannot be understood as limiting the scope of the patent of the utility model. It should be pointed out that, for ordinary technicians in this field, several modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the utility model, which all belong to the protection scope of the utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of the patent of the utility model shall be based on the attached claims.
