Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of nucleic acid extraction, in particular to a full-automatic nucleic acid extraction instrument. Background Art
[0002] Nucleic acid extractors are instruments that use matching nucleic acid extraction reagents to automatically complete sample nucleic acid extraction. In almost every laboratory, separation and purification work related to biological molecules is very important and indispensable. The fully automatic nucleic acid extractor is automated in the nucleic acid extraction experiment, which greatly saves manpower and brings great convenience to the experimenters. The operation and switching of different component reagents during the extraction process is also automated. Usually, a three-dimensional mechanical motion mechanism is used to realize the magnetic rod reaching the area of different component reagents, or a motor drives a synchronous pulley to drive a turntable to realize a circular motion mechanical operation mechanism to switch different component reagents to the magnetic rod position.
[0003] The fully automatic nucleic acid extractors commonly found on the market use three-dimensional mechanical motion mechanisms to enable the magnetic rod to reach the areas of different reagent components. This technology often requires a large operating space, resulting in a large instrument size, occupying a large space in the laboratory, and the electrical control system is relatively complex and costly, but the control accuracy is not high, and the coordinate accuracy of the instrument needs to be calibrated after a period of use. There are also some circular motion mechanical structures used on the market that use motors to drive synchronous pulleys to drive the turntable to achieve operation switching of different component reagents, but the synchronous belts will wear and loosen during use, and the operating accuracy will decrease after long-term use, requiring regular replacement of the synchronous belts or tensioning of the synchronous belts. The above technologies used on the market cannot achieve high-precision operation, and require after-sales calibration and maintenance in the later stage, which increases the difficulty of the work of after-sales personnel.
