For those skilled in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present utility model can be understood according to the specific circumstances.
[0024] Combine the following Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The specific implementation of the capping device of the automated inspection workstation of the utility model is described.
[0025] The utility model provides a capping device for an automated testing workstation, which realizes efficient, accurate positioning and stable fixation of a sample package during automated testing, and effectively solves the problem of inaccurate sample positioning in traditional automated testing. The device includes: a base plate 10, which is arranged on a workbench; a carrier 20, which is arranged on the base plate 10, and the carrier 20 has a bearing slot 21 for bearing the sample package during the testing process; a capping mechanism 30, which is arranged on the base plate 10 and is located on one side of the carrier 20, and the capping mechanism 30 includes a pressing plate 31 that can move horizontally and a driving assembly for driving the pressing plate 31 to move horizontally; the capping mechanism 30 has a clamping state and a releasing state; in the clamping state, the pressing plate 31 is close to the carrier 20 and can clamp the sample package in the bearing slot 21; in the releasing state, the pressing plate 31 is away from the carrier 20.
[0026] Specifically, the base plate 10, as the basic structure of the entire device, is fixedly installed on the workbench, providing a stable support platform for other components. The carrier 20 is arranged on the base plate 10, and its bearing groove 21 is used to stably carry the sample package during the detection process to ensure the accurate placement of the sample before the detection. The capping mechanism 30 is located on one side of the carrier 20 and directly acts on the sample package. The capping mechanism 30 mainly includes a horizontally movable pressure plate member 31, and a driving assembly that drives the pressure plate member 31 to move. The pressure plate member 31 can switch between a clamped state and a released state under the control of the driving assembly.
[0027] In the clamping state, the pressing plate 31 approaches the carrier 20 through the action of the driving assembly, directly aligns with and clamps the sample package in the loading slot 21, ensuring the firm fixation of the sample package and preventing displacement during the automated testing process. When the test is completed or the sample needs to be adjusted, the pressing plate 31 is driven away from the carrier 20, so that the sample package can be easily removed or replaced, which is convenient for subsequent processing by the automated testing workstation.
[0028] By setting up a capping device, the automated testing workstation can achieve efficient, accurate positioning and stable fixation of the sample package during the automated testing process, effectively solving the problem of inaccurate sample positioning in traditional automated testing, improving testing efficiency and safety, and also optimizing the use of human resources.
[0029] According to the capping device of an automated testing workstation provided by the utility model, there is provided a waste recovery cylinder 40 for recovering the testing gun tips, which is used to collect and process the discarded gun tips (such as injection needles or other disposable sampling tools) generated during the testing process. The bottom of the waste recovery cylinder 40 passes through the base plate 10 and the workbench; a recovery container opposite to the waste recovery cylinder 40 is provided below the workbench. Whenever the test is completed, the used testing gun tips can be guided into the waste recovery cylinder 40 through a linked mechanical structure (such as a robotic arm), and then naturally fall into the recovery container below the workbench. The design of the waste recovery cylinder 40 not only ensures the cleanliness and safety of the working environment, and avoids the pollution risks that may be caused by improper disposal of waste, but also simplifies the centralized management and disposal process of waste, reduces the time and labor intensity of the testing personnel in waste disposal, and further improves the overall automation and work efficiency of the testing workstation.
[0030] According to a capping device of an automated inspection workstation provided by the utility model, a recovery sensor for detecting that the detection gun tip falls into the waste recovery bin 40 is provided on one side of the waste discharge recovery bin 40. Once the detection gun tip successfully falls into the recovery bin, the recovery sensor can send a signal to the control system, which can not only provide instant feedback on the progress of waste treatment and ensure the integrity of each inspection operation, but also prevent potential blockages or omissions, and avoid equipment failures or environmental pollution caused by improper waste treatment. The type of recovery sensor can be selected according to actual needs, preferably a diffuse reflection photoelectric sensor. When the detection gun tip falls into the recovery bin, the reflection path of the light will be changed, and the recovery sensor will then receive the change in the reflection signal, thereby determining that an object has entered.
[0031] According to the capping device of an automated inspection workstation provided by the utility model, the waste recovery barrel 40 includes a reducing pipe section 41; in the vertical direction, the diameter of the reducing pipe section 41 gradually increases from bottom to top. The larger pipe diameter design above the reducing pipe section 41 not only facilitates the placement of waste gun tips, but also ensures that jamming is not likely to occur during the introduction process, thereby improving the smoothness of waste treatment. At the same time, the reducing pipe section 41 helps maintain the stability and guidance of the waste when it descends, and there is no need to increase the perforation diameter of the bottom plate 10 and the workbench to facilitate the entry of the waste inspection gun tips.
[0032] According to a capping device of an automated testing workstation provided by the utility model, there are multiple carriers 20, and the sizes and / or shapes of the bearing slots 21 of any two carriers 20 are different, and the sizes include cross-sectional sizes and / or depth sizes, so that the workstation can be compatible with and accurately locate sample packages of different specifications and forms to meet diverse testing needs. Specifically, the bearing slots 21 of different sizes and / or shapes can correspond to different types of sample packages, respectively, and can be reliably positioned in a targeted manner, thereby improving the flexibility and adaptability of the device. Considering the limitations of the installation space, the carrier 20 and the corresponding capping mechanism 30 are preferably installed in a detachable manner with the base plate 10, so that the corresponding carrier 20 and the capping mechanism 30 can be replaced according to the testing requirements.
[0033] According to the capping device of an automated testing workstation provided by the utility model, the capping mechanism 30 includes a support frame, and a driving assembly and a pressing plate 31 are arranged above the support frame. The support frame not only provides a stable supporting platform for the driving assembly and the pressing plate 31, but also enables them to be supported at the most suitable height to meet the needs of sample packages of different sizes and shapes.
[0034] According to a capping device of an automated inspection workstation provided by the utility model, the support frame includes: a flange chassis 32, mounted on a base plate 10; at least two vertical brackets 33, arranged on the flange chassis 32; a mounting bracket 34, arranged on the top of the vertical bracket 33, and a drive assembly mounted on the mounting bracket 34. Specifically, as the basis of the support frame, the flange chassis 32 is mounted on the base plate 10, ensuring the stability of the entire device. The vertical bracket 33 is vertically arranged on the flange chassis 32, not only serving as the longitudinal skeleton of the support frame, but also providing the necessary vertical support force for the entire capping mechanism 30. The mounting bracket 34 located on the top of the vertical bracket 33 serves as a mounting platform for the drive assembly.
[0035] Preferably, in order to further enhance the adaptability and flexibility of the automated testing workstation, the capping device of the present invention is designed to allow the configuration of vertical brackets 33 of various sizes. Users can adjust the height of the support frame and even the entire capping mechanism 30 by simply replacing vertical brackets 33 of different lengths according to actual needs to match sample packages of different sizes and shapes.
[0036] According to a capping device of an automated inspection workstation provided by the utility model, the driving assembly includes a cylinder 35 and an L-shaped slide 36, and the L-shaped slide 36 includes a connecting portion and a sliding portion that are perpendicular to each other; the connecting portion is located at the front end of the cylinder 35 and is connected to the cylinder rod of the cylinder 35; the sliding portion is located above the cylinder 35 and is slidably matched with the upper surface of the cylinder 35; and the pressure plate 31 is arranged above the sliding portion. Specifically, the connecting portion is arranged at the front end of the cylinder 35 and is directly connected to the cylinder rod of the cylinder 35, ensuring that the linear reciprocating motion of the cylinder 35 can be effectively converted into the horizontal movement of the L-shaped slide 36. The sliding portion is located directly above the cylinder 35 and is slidably matched with the upper surface of the cylinder 35. When the piston of the cylinder 35 is extended and retracted, the sliding portion can move smoothly along the upper surface of the cylinder 35, thereby driving the pressure plate 31 above it to move horizontally. The pressing plate 31 is placed above the sliding part. As the cylinder 35 drives the L-shaped slide 36 to move, the pressing plate 31 can accurately perform the action of pressing or releasing the sample package.
[0037] According to the capping device of an automated testing workstation provided by the utility model, the pressure plate 31 includes a mounting portion mounted on the sliding portion and an extension portion extending from the mounting portion toward the carrier 20; in the clamping state, the extension portion clamps the sample package in the bearing slot 21. The mounting portion is fastened to the sliding portion of the L-shaped slide 36, ensuring that the pressure plate 31 can stably follow the movement of the sliding portion. The extension portion extends from the mounting portion toward the carrier 20, so as to act on the corresponding position of the sample package in the bearing slot 21, thereby achieving effective clamping of the sample package.
[0038] In order to achieve accurate control and real-time monitoring of the piston position of the cylinder 35, according to the capping device of the automated inspection workstation provided by the utility model, a position sensor 37 for detecting the piston position of the cylinder 35 is provided on the surface of the cylinder 35. Through the real-time feedback of the sensor, the system can accurately grasp the current position of the piston of the cylinder 35, thereby grasping the current state of the capping mechanism 30.
[0039] Each cylinder 35 is preferably equipped with two position sensors 37, corresponding to the clamping state and the release state of the capping mechanism 30, so that the workstation can accurately identify the position change of the piston of the cylinder 35 in real time, ensuring that the movement control of the pressure plate 31 when clamping and releasing the sample package is more accurate. When the capping mechanism 30 enters the clamping state, one position sensor 37 will detect the specific position reached by the piston, indicating that the pressure plate 31 has correctly clamped the sample package; while in the release state, the other position sensor 37 will send a signal to confirm that the pressure plate 31 has returned to its original position and is ready to receive or release the next sample package.
