[0002] In some chemical detection instruments such as analyzers, it is necessary to use a sample rack transmission mechanism to transmit the sample rack to a corresponding sampling position or other positions for sampling work. The sample rack transmission mechanism of the chemiluminescence immunoassay analyzer in the related art performs individual sampling of sample tubes through the cooperation of a conveyor belt and a carrier plate, and this method has a relatively simple structure.

[0003] However, the sample rack transmission structure in the related art mainly relies on the accommodation space formed by surrounding the carrier plate to limit the position of the sample rack. The sample rack is still prone to positional deviation along the moving direction during the movement. As a result, when the sample rack transmission mechanism in the related art transmits the sample rack, it is prone to positional deviation, affecting the sampling accuracy. Summary of the Utility Model

[0004] Based on this, in view of the above problems, it is necessary to propose a sample rack conveying device and an analyzer that can ensure the sampling accuracy.

[0006] A base body having an injection position and a sample output position arranged at intervals;

[0007] A first transmission component capable of driving the sample rack to move along the direction from the injection position to the sample output position;

[0008] A second transmission component including a carrier that can move back and forth between the injection position and the sample output position, and the carrier is located on the moving path of the sample rack;

[0009] And a positioning component including a first positioning member and a second positioning member arranged at intervals along the moving direction of the sample rack on the carrier.

[0010] By providing the first positioning member and the second positioning member, the position of the sample rack can be defined together with the carrier, and the first positioning member and the second positioning member can limit the position of the sample rack in the moving direction, making the position of the sample rack more stable.

[0011] In one embodiment, the carrier includes a fixing portion, the first positioning member includes a first positioning main body, one end of the first positioning main body is connected with a first connecting portion, and the other end is provided with a first positioning portion.

The limiting portions are groove structures, and two inclined surfaces are provided at the ends of the first positioning portion and the second positioning portion for abutting against the limiting portions, so that both the first positioning portion and the second positioning portion are arranged in a conical shape.

[0016] By setting the abutting ends of the first positioning portion and the second positioning portion to be conical, when the first positioning portion and the second positioning portion abut against the sample rack, the conical ends can cooperate with the groove structure on the sample rack to achieve an anti-slip effect.

[0017] In one embodiment, the carrier further includes a support plate fixedly connected to the fixing portion, and a sample injection right side plate and a sample injection left side plate spacedly connected to the support plate. A channel for the sample rack to pass through is formed between the sample injection right side plate and the sample injection left side plate. The sample injection right side plate is arranged away from the fixing portion and encloses and forms the limiting space with the first positioning member and the second positioning member.

[0018] The sample injection left side plate and the sample injection right side plate can limit the movement of the sample rack perpendicular to its conveying direction.

[0020] Through the cooperation of the second driving wheel, the second driven wheel and the second transmission belt, the drive of the second driving member can be transmitted so that the first positioning member, the second positioning member and the carrier can all move synchronously with the sample rack.

[0021] In one embodiment, a slide rail is further disposed on the base body along the moving direction of the carrier, and a slider for connecting with the slide rail is disposed on the transmission frame.

[0022] Through the cooperation of the slide rail and the slider, the moving direction of the carrier can be limited so that its moving direction will not deviate.

[0023] In one embodiment, a front end track and a rear end track are spaced apart on the base body, and the front end track and the rear end track serve as the sample output position and the sample input position respectively;

[0025] The rear end track includes a second bottom plate fixed to the base body and a first rear side plate and a second rear side plate spaced apart on the second bottom plate, and a sample input space for the sample rack is formed between the first rear side plate and the second rear side plate.

[0026] By providing the sample input space, the trajectory of the sample rack can be limited when the sample rack is conveyed, so that it can smoothly enter the limit space when conveyed along the conveying path, and the sample output space can ensure the orderly output of the sample rack.

[0027] In one embodiment, a rear pressing plate is disposed at one end of the second rear side plate opposite to the first positioning main body, an abutting surface is disposed on one end surface of the first positioning main body facing the rear pressing plate, the abutting surface is an inclined surface or a curved surface, and when the rear pressing plate abuts against the abutting surface, the first positioning member can be forced to rotate and make way;

[0028] One end of the second positioning portion facing away from the second positioning main body is inclined, and one end of the second front side plate faces the inclined surface. When one end of the second front side plate abuts against the inclined surface, the second positioning member can be forced to rotate and make way.

[0029] Through the above arrangement, when the carrier moves, through the action of the rear pressure plate and the second front side plate, the first positioning portion and the second positioning portion can automatically give way without manually moving the first positioning portion and the second positioning portion, so as to set the end opening corresponding to the limit space, which makes it more convenient for the sample rack to enter or exit the limit space.

[0048] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by those of ordinary skill in the technical field to which the present utility model belongs. The terms used in the description of the present utility model herein are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the present utility model. The term "and / or" used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more of the related listed items.

[0049] On the one hand, the present utility model provides a sample rack 5 conveying device for transporting the sample rack 5 to realize sampling of the samples on the sample rack 5. In one embodiment, please refer to Figures 1 to 3 , the sample rack 5 conveying device includes a base body 1, a first transmission assembly 2, a second transmission assembly 3 and a positioning assembly 4. Among them, the base body 1 is the overall structure of the sample rack 5 conveying device. It can not only provide an installation environment for the components, but also serve as the support frame of the entire conveying device. The base body 1 has a sample loading position and a sample unloading position arranged at intervals. The sample loading position is the starting point for transporting the sample rack 5, and the sample unloading position is the end point for transporting the sample rack 5.

[0050] The first transmission assembly 2 can drive the sample rack 5 to move along the direction from the sample loading position to the sample unloading position. The sample rack 5 is initially located at the sample loading position, and the first transmission member can drive the sample rack 5 to move towards the sample unloading position and can move to the sample unloading position.

[0051] The second transmission assembly 3 includes a carrier 31 that can move back and forth between the sample loading position and the sample unloading position. The carrier 31 is located on the moving path of the sample rack 5. A limiting space for restricting the sample rack 5 can be formed on the carrier 31. The sample rack 5 moved by the first transmission assembly 2 can move into this limiting space to restrict the position of the sample rack 5.

[0052] Specifically, the positioning assembly 4 includes a first positioning member 41 and a second positioning member 42 which are spaced apart on the carrier 31 along the moving direction of the sample rack. The first positioning member 41 and the second positioning member 42 are elastically rotatably connected to the carrier 31. In a free state, a limiting space which is located in the moving direction of the sample rack 5 and can limit the position of the sample rack 5 can be enclosed between the first positioning member 41, the second positioning member 42 and the carrier 31.

[0053] When the carrier 31 moves to the sample feeding position, part of the structure of the sample feeding position can squeeze the first positioning member 41 to rotate, so that the first transmission component 2 drives the sample rack 5 to enter the limited space to make way, and the first transmission component 2 can drive the sample rack 5 to move into the limited space. When the carrier 31 moves toward the sample output position and the first transmission component synchronously drives the sample rack 5 to move toward the sample output position, the first positioning member 41 can return to its original position under the action of elastic force. At this time, the first positioning member 41 can cooperate with the second positioning member 42 to clamp the sample rack 5 in the limited space to limit the position of the sample rack 5. When the carrier 31 moves to the sample output position, part of the structure of the sample output position can squeeze the second positioning member 42 to rotate, so that the first transmission component 2 drives the sample rack 5 to leave the limited space to make way, and at this time, the first transmission component 2 can drive the sample rack 5 to leave the limited space and move to the sample output position. It should be noted that when the carrier 31 moves, the sample rack 5 located in the limited space can move synchronously.

[0054] By setting the carrier 31, the carrier 31 is set on the moving path of the sample rack 5, and by setting the first positioning member 41 and the second positioning member 42, a limited space is formed between the two positioning members and the carrier 31. The limited space is located on the moving path of the sample rack 5, so that the sample rack 5 can enter the limited space during the movement. The first positioning member 41 and the second positioning member 42 can limit the position of the sample rack 5 in the moving direction, which can avoid the sample rack 5 from shifting in position during the movement, and further avoid the problem of inaccurate sampling caused by the position shift.

[0055] In addition, the first positioning member 41 and the second positioning member 42 are both elastically arranged on the carrier 31, and the limiting space is in a closed state in the free state. The carrier 31 can drive the two positioning members to move during the movement between the sample inlet position and the sample outlet position. When moving to the sample inlet position, the first positioning member 41 can give way, so that the sample rack 5 can smoothly enter the limiting space. During the movement of the carrier 31 from the sample inlet position to the sample outlet position, the first positioning member 41 can return to its original position under the action of elastic force, and cooperate with the second positioning member 42 to limit the sample rack 5 in the limiting space. When the carrier 31 moves to the sample outlet position, the second positioning member 42 can be driven to rotate and give way, so that the sample rack 5 can smoothly leave the limiting space. Such a setting can realize that the limiting space can be automatically opened or closed during the movement of the carrier 31, which is more convenient to limit the position of the sample rack 5.

[0056] In one embodiment, please refer to Figures 1 to 4 , the carrier 31 includes a fixing portion 311, the first positioning member 41 includes a first positioning main body 411, one end of the first positioning main body 411 is connected with a first connecting portion 412, and the other end is provided with a first positioning portion 413. The first connecting portion 412 is rotatably connected to the fixing portion 311 through a rotating shaft, and the first connecting portion 412 is elastically connected to the fixing portion 311 by a torsion spring.

[0057] The second positioning member 42 includes a second positioning main body 421, one end of the second positioning main body 421 is connected with a second connecting portion 422, and the other end is provided with a second positioning portion 423. The second connecting portion 422 is rotatably connected to the fixing portion 311 through a rotating shaft, and the second connecting portion 422 is elastically connected to the fixing portion 311 by a torsion spring.

[0058] In the free state, under the action of the torsion spring, both the first positioning portion 413 and the second positioning portion 423 are located on the moving path of the sample rack 5. When the sample rack 5 is located in the limiting space, the first positioning portion 413 and the second positioning portion 423 respectively abut against opposite ends of the sample rack 5.

[0059] The positions of the first positioning portion 413 and the second positioning portion 423 can be restricted by the torsion spring, so that the positioning portions block the moving path of the sample rack 5. To rotate the first positioning portion 413 and the second positioning portion 423, a certain force needs to be applied to overcome the elastic force of the torsion spring.

[0060] In a specific embodiment, limiting portions 51 are provided at the positions where the sample rack 5 abuts against the first positioning portion 413 and the second positioning portion 423. The limiting portions 51 are of groove structures, and the groove structures can be formed by a plurality of spaced convex strips protruding on the sample rack 5, or can be directly grooves opened on the sample rack 5. Two inclined surfaces are provided at the ends of the first positioning portion 413 and the second positioning portion 423 for abutting against the limiting portions 51. The ends of the two inclined surfaces are connected, and there is a certain included angle between the two inclined surfaces, which is determined according to the actual situation. In this way, both the first positioning portion 413 and the second positioning portion 423 are arranged in a conical shape. When the first positioning portion 413 and the second positioning portion 423 abut against the sample rack 5, the abutting portions on the first positioning portion 413 and the second positioning portion 423 are located in the grooves, and the two inclined surfaces can respectively abut against the side walls of the grooves.

[0061] In addition, the ends of the first positioning portion 413 and the second positioning portion 423 can not only be arranged in a conical shape, but also be arranged in a curved surface, for example, can be arranged in a hemispherical shape.

[0062] By setting the first positioning portion 413 and the second positioning portion 423 to be conical, when the sample rack 5 is abutted, the sample rack 5 can be extruded towards the carrier 31, so that the position of the sample rack 5 is more stable.

[0063] In a specific embodiment, the carrier 31 further includes a pallet 312 fixedly connected to the fixing portion 311, and a sample injection right side plate 313 and a sample injection left side plate 314 spacedly connected to the pallet 312. The pallet 312 is located on the moving path of the sample rack 5. The sample injection right side plate 313 and the sample injection left side plate 314 are arranged in parallel, and the gap between the two forms a channel for the sample rack 5 to pass through. The channel is arranged opposite to the transmission path of the sample rack 5, so that the sample rack 5 located at the sample injection position can enter the channel. It should be noted that the width of the channel is preferably adapted to the thickness of the sample rack 5 to prevent the sample rack 5 from shifting.

[0064] Wherein, the sample injection right side plate 313 is arranged away from the fixing portion 311. A limiting space is formed by enclosing between the sample injection right side plate 313 and the first positioning member 41 and the second positioning member 42. The sample rack 5 is located in the limiting space, and the first positioning portion 413 and the second positioning portion 423 respectively abut against the limiting portion 51 on the sample rack 5. When the first positioning portion 413 and the second positioning portion 423 respectively abut against the corresponding limiting portion 51, there is a tendency to extrude the sample rack 5 to move towards the sample injection right side plate 313, thereby realizing the clamping of the sample rack 5.

[0065] In a specific embodiment, the second transmission assembly can drive the carrier 31 to move. Specifically, the second transmission assembly includes a transmission frame 36 movably arranged on the base 1. The fixing portion 311 is fixedly connected to the transmission frame 36. The second transmission assembly further includes a second driving member 32 arranged on the base 1. A second driving wheel 34 is arranged on the output shaft of the second driving member 32. A second driven wheel parallel to the rotating shaft of the second driving wheel 34 is rotatably arranged on the base 1. A second transmission belt 33 is connected between the second driving wheel 34 and the second driven wheel. The transmission frame 36 is fixedly connected to the second transmission belt 33. The transmission direction of the second transmission belt 33 is the same as the transmission direction of the sample rack 5.

[0066] It should be noted that a slide rail 15 is further arranged on the base 1 along the moving direction of the carrier 31, and a slider 16 for connecting with the slide rail 15 is arranged on the transmission frame 36. Through the cooperation of the slider 16 and the slide rail 15, the moving direction of the carrier 31 can be restricted to prevent the carrier 31 from shifting during the moving process. In addition to the slider 16 and slide rail 15 structure, a linear motion structure such as a linear bearing can also be used, which is not limited herein.

[0067] In one embodiment, please also combine Figure 5 and Figure 6, on the base body 1, a front track 13 and a rear track 14 are arranged at intervals. The front track 13 and the rear track 14 serve as the sample output position and the sample input position respectively, and spaces for accommodating the sample rack 5 are formed on both the front track 13 and the rear track 14.

[0068] Specifically, the front track 13 includes a first bottom plate 133 fixed on the base body 1, and a first front side plate 131 and a second front side plate 132 arranged at intervals on the first bottom plate 133. A sample output space for the sample rack 5 is formed between the first front side plate 131 and the second front side plate 132. The first front side plate 131 and the second front side plate 132 are arranged in parallel, and the width of the sample output space is preferably adapted to the thickness of the sample rack 5 (the thickness of the sample rack 5 is the dimension in the direction perpendicular to its moving direction).

[0069] The rear track 14 includes a second bottom plate 143 fixed on the base body 1, and a first rear side plate 141 and a second rear side plate 142 arranged at intervals on the second bottom plate 143. A sample input space for the sample rack 5 is formed between the first rear side plate 141 and the second rear side plate 142. The first rear side plate 141 and the second rear side plate 142 are arranged in parallel, and the width of the sample input space is preferably adapted to the thickness of the sample rack 5.

[0070] By arranging the front track 13 and the rear track 14, the running direction of the sample rack 5 can be restricted, and the running path of the sample rack 5 can be ensured.

[0071] It should be noted that the carrier 31 can move between the front track 13 and the rear track 14. At one end of the second rear side plate 142 facing the first positioning body 411, a rear pressure plate 144 is provided. On one end face of the first positioning body 411 facing the rear pressure plate 144, a contact surface 4111 is provided, and the contact surface 4111 is an inclined surface or a curved surface. In the free state of the first positioning member 41, the contact surface 4111 faces the rear pressure plate 144. When the carrier 31 moves towards the rear track 14, the rear pressure plate 144 can abut against the contact surface 4111. As the carrier 31 continues to move, the rear pressure plate 144 can force the first positioning member 41 to rotate and make way in a direction away from the sample input right side plate 313. When the carrier 31 moves to the position where the limit space is docked with the sample input space, the first positioning member 41 completely makes way, so that the sample rack 5 can smoothly move from the sample input space into the limit space.

[0072] In addition, one end of the second positioning portion 423 away from the end for abutting against the sample rack 5 is connected to one end of the second positioning main body 421 away from the second connecting portion 422, and the end face of the second positioning portion 423 facing away from the second positioning main body 421 is provided with an inclined surface, and the inclined surface gradually inclines towards the second positioning main body 421 along the transportation path of the sample rack 5. One end of the second front side plate 132 facing the second positioning member 42 is disposed opposite to the inclined surface. When the carrier 31 moves towards the front end track 13, one end of the second front side plate 132 facing the second positioning member can abut against the inclined surface. During the continuous movement of the carrier 31, the end of the second front side plate 132 moves along the inclined surface, which can force the second positioning member 42 to rotate and give way in a direction away from the sample injection right side plate 313, so as to facilitate the first transmission assembly 2 to drive the sample rack 5 out of the limiting space.

[0073] In one embodiment, please also refer to Figure 7 , a first frame body 11 and a second frame body 12 are further spaced apart on the base body 1. The first frame body 11 and the second frame body 12 are respectively located at both ends of the base body 1 in the transmission direction of the sample rack 5.
