Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of biological detection, and in particular relates to an auxiliary device for assembling and adding samples of a chromatography test strip. Background Art

[0002] The colloidal gold test strip is mainly composed of four parts: sample pad, gold label pad, nitrocellulose membrane (NC membrane), and absorbent paper. From bottom to top, they are connected end to end and pasted on the PVC base plate. When assembling a conventional large plate, the size of the PVC base plate used is generally 8*30cm, the nitrocellulose membrane is 2.5*30cm, and the gold pad is 0.5*30cm. The gold pad needs to be strictly pasted 1~2mm from the lower edge of the nitrocellulose membrane. If the contact length between the two is too large or too small, it will affect the performance of the test strip. Because the two are long and narrow, it is easy for the experimenter to stick the nitrocellulose membrane and the gold pad off during the assembly of the immunochromatographic test strip card, resulting in the abandonment of the large plate and the waste of cost. In addition, during the sample addition process, if the sample addition speed of the flat test strip is too fast, the sample can easily be directly washed over the gold pad, or if the operator is a little careless, the sample can easily overflow from the sample pad and cause leakage, which will cause insufficient contact between the antigen and the antibody, resulting in deviations in the experimental results. For this reason, it is necessary to propose an auxiliary device for assembling and adding samples of a chromatography test strip card. Summary of the invention

[0020] The present invention is described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0021] See also Figure 1 The utility model discloses an auxiliary device for assembling and adding samples of a chromatography test strip, comprising a base 1, an assembly fixing mechanism and a sample adding fixing mechanism are arranged on the top of the base 1, and scale lines 22 are arranged on both sides of the top of the base 1.

[0022] The assembly fixing mechanism includes a fixing bar assembly, a positioning assembly and a fixing assembly. The fixing bar assembly includes a front fixing bar 2, a rear fixing bar 3, a left fixing bar 4 and a right fixing bar 5 respectively fixed at the edges of the top of the base 1. The positioning assembly includes a first positioning rod 6 arranged on the rear fixing bar 3. Two first positioning rods 6 are provided, both of which are L-shaped structures and are symmetrical about the center of the rear fixing bar 3. A moving rod 12 is vertically fixed to the rear side of the first positioning rod 6. By moving the two first positioning rods 6 forward and backward, the position of the PVC bottom plate can be adjusted. Both sides of the rear fixing bar 3 are provided with through holes penetrating the two ends thereof and a first threaded hole vertically connected to the middle of the through hole. The moving rod 12 movably passes through the through hole. The first threaded hole is threadedly connected to a first bolt 13. The first bolt 13 is screwed in until its bottom abuts against the top of the moving rod 12 to fix the moving rod 12.

[0023] The fixing assembly includes a fixing rod 7, a left vertical plate 8 and a right vertical plate 9. The inner sides of the left vertical plate 8 and the right vertical plate 9 are both provided with a first slide groove perpendicular to the base 1. The two ends of the fixing rod 7 are slidably connected in the first slide groove through the first guide block 10 to drive the fixing rod 7 to move up and down. The fixing rod 7 moves downward to press the PVC bottom plate 23 to avoid the position of the PVC bottom plate 23 from being offset during the assembly process and to avoid wasting consumables. The outer sides of the left vertical plate 8 and the right vertical plate 9 are both fixedly connected to the slider 11. The lower part of the slider 11 is provided with a second slide groove. The second slide grooves of the two sliders 11 are respectively slidably connected with the left vertical plate 8 and the right vertical plate 9 to drive the forward and backward movement of the fixing rod 7. Through the forward and backward movement of the fixing rod 7, in conjunction with the scale line 22, the position where the NC film and the gold label pad are pasted can be accurately located. The outer side of the slider 11 is provided with a third threaded hole, and the third bolt 19 is threadedly connected in the third threaded hole. The two third bolts 19 are screwed in until their bottoms are against the left fixing bar 4 and the right fixing bar 5 to fix the slider 11.

[0024] The front side of the fixing rod 7 is slidably connected to the second positioning rod 20. By moving the second positioning rod 20 left and right, the left side of the NC film and the gold label pad can be positioned, thereby improving the accuracy of the pasting position.

[0025] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3 The sample loading and fixing mechanism includes a plurality of first limiting plates 14 and a cross bar 15 fixed at equal intervals on the front fixing bar 2. Mounting blocks 16 are fixed on both sides of the top of the front fixing bar 2. A limiting groove 161 is provided on the inner upper part of the mounting block 16. The two ends of the cross bar 15 are respectively inserted into the limiting grooves 161 of the two mounting blocks 16. A second threaded hole is provided on the top of the mounting block 16. The second threaded hole is threaded with a second bolt 17. The two second bolts 17 are screwed in until their bottoms abut against the cross bar 15 to fix the cross bar 15. A plurality of second limiting plates 18 are fixed vertically at equal intervals on the front side of the cross bar 15. The second limiting plate 18 is located between two adjacent first limiting plates 14, and forms a test strip 24 fixing cavity with the first limiting plate 14 on its left side. By moving the cross bar 15, the first limiting plate 14 and the second limiting plate 18 can fix the test strip 24 to prevent the test strip 24 from moving during the sample addition process. The distance between the first limiting plate 14 and the second limiting plate 18 can be adjusted, which is conducive to adapting to test strips 24 of different widths.

[0026] See also Figure 4 Both sides of the bottom of the base 1 are provided with buckles 21 through pins. By prying open the rotatable buckles 21 on the back of the base 1, the base 1 forms a certain inclination with the experimental desktop, which can alleviate the problem that the sample is directly flushed to the nitrocellulose membrane when the test strip 24 is placed flat, resulting in insufficient contact between the antibody and the antigen, thereby causing deviation in the experimental results.

[0027] In order to better illustrate the utility model, the working process is described in detail below:

[0028] During assembly, adjust the positions of the two first positioning rods 6, place the PVC base plate 23, move the front edge of the fixing rod 7 to the specified scale line 22, move it downward to press the PVC base plate 23, adjust the second positioning rod 20 to the appropriate position, paste the NC film, and paste the gold label pad, sample pad, etc. according to the same steps. After assembly, cut it to obtain the test strip 24.

[0029] Before adding samples, first open the buckle 21 to tilt the base 1, then place multiple test strips 24 on the front fixing bar 2 in sequence, move the cross bar 15 so that the first limiting plate 14 and the second limiting plate 18 fix the test strips 24, and then start adding samples for testing.

[0030] The above shows and describes the basic principle, main features and advantages of the utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that the above embodiments do not limit the utility model in any form, and any technical solution obtained by equivalent replacement or equivalent transformation falls within the protection scope of the utility model.
