Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of blood culture, and more specifically, to a fully automatic blood culture instrument. Background Art
[0002] Blood culture is a standard method in clinical microbiology for detecting the presence of microorganisms (such as bacteria and fungi) in blood samples. In the diagnosis of systemic infections, such as sepsis, blood culture is an essential tool. Traditional blood culture methods involve inoculating blood samples into culture bottles that contain a medium to support the growth of microorganisms. These bottles are then placed in an incubator for incubation to observe any signs of microbial growth.
[0003] With the development of technology, manual blood culture systems have gradually been replaced by automated devices, namely fully automatic blood culture instruments. These devices can automatically incubate and monitor a large number of blood culture bottles, indicating the growth of microorganisms by detecting biochemical changes (such as changes in pressure, turbidity, or gas composition) in the culture bottles.
[0004] Although existing fully automatic blood culture instruments have improved the efficiency and detection speed of laboratories, they still have some limitations. For example, the incubation capacity of current devices is limited, and sometimes multiple culture instruments need to be combined and installed. However, there is no dedicated fixed connection device on existing culture instruments, which results in only simple stacking during combination, and it is very easy for the culture instruments to tip over due to vibration or slight collision. Summary of the Utility Model
[0005] Based on the above technical problems, the utility model proposes a fully automatic blood culture instrument.
[0006] A fully automatic blood culture instrument includes: the main body of the culture instrument, the front side of the main body is a sealed door, upper and lower grooves are opened at the upper and lower ends of the side of the main body, a rotatable clamping plate is arranged in the upper groove, a clamping block is arranged outside the clamping plate, and a clamping groove matching the clamping block is arranged in the lower groove; arc-shaped grooves are arranged at the four corners of the rear side of the main body. After four main bodies are combined, the centers of the arc-shaped grooves coincide, and a circular limiting frame can be clamped in the arc-shaped grooves.
[0007] Preferably, four symmetrically arranged legs are arranged on the lower side of the main body, positioning grooves corresponding to the legs up and down are arranged on the upper side of the main body, the legs are inserted into the positioning grooves, and the height of the legs is greater than the depth of the positioning grooves.
[0008] Preferably, an integral cross is arranged in the limiting frame, and the cross is clamped in the gap between the main bodies.
[0009] Preferably, a positioning frame is provided on the front side of the body. The positioning frame is in the shape of a cross and is located behind the sealing door.
[0010] Beneficial effects: A variety of devices for combined fixation are provided on the outer shell of the incubator, such as feet, positioning grooves, positioning frames, and limiting frames. Using the above-mentioned fixing mechanisms, multiple incubators can be combined and stacked together. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0015] In order to more clearly understand the above-mentioned objects, features, and advantages of the present invention, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be noted that, without conflict, the embodiments of the present application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other.
[0016] Embodiment 1
[0017] In this embodiment, as shown in Figures 1 to 4 a fully automatic blood incubator includes: a body 1 of the incubator, the front side of the body 1 is a sealing door 2, a touch display screen 3 is provided on the sealing door 2, upper slots 4 and lower slots 5 are opened at the upper and lower ends of the side of the body 1, a rotatable clamping plate 6 is provided in the upper slot 4, a clamping block 7 is provided outside the clamping plate 6, and a clamping groove 8 matching the clamping block 7 is provided in the lower slot 5.
[0018] When stacking and combining the bodies 1, the side of the body 1 can be locked by the cooperation of the clamping block 7 on the clamping plate 6 and the clamping groove 8.
[0019] Arc-shaped grooves 9 are provided at the four corners of the rear side of the body 1. After four bodies 1 are combined, the centers of the arc-shaped grooves 9 coincide, and an annular limiting frame 10 can be clamped in the arc-shaped grooves 9 to lock the four bodies 1 at the center of the combination.
[0020] Embodiment 2
[0021] In this embodiment, generally, legs 12 are provided on the lower side of the main body 1, and positioning grooves 13 corresponding to the legs 12 up and down are provided on the upper side of the main body 1. The legs 12 are inserted into the positioning grooves 13, and the height of the legs 12 is greater than the depth of the positioning grooves 13. When stacking and combining, there will be a gap between the upper and lower main bodies 1. In order to firmly fix it, a limiting frame 10 with a cross 11 is designed. The cross 11 is stuck in the gap between the main bodies 1. The limiting frame 10 with this structure can be firmly stuck at the center of the four main bodies 1 and connect them together.
[0022] In order to maintain balance, a cross-shaped positioning frame 14 is provided on the front side of the main body 1. The positioning frame 14 is located behind the sealing door 2 to avoid affecting the opening and closing of the sealing door 2.
