Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of pipette tip detection, in particular to a detection device for pipette tips. Background Technique

[0002] Pipette tips are tools for liquid transfer in laboratories. They are usually made of plastic, and there are tips with different capacities and shapes suitable for different operation requirements. Pipette tips are connected to a pipettor through a pipette or an electronic pipette, and are used to accurately aspirate and release liquids. For example, they are commonly used to dispense solutions, samples or reagents in fields such as molecular biology, biochemistry, and clinical diagnosis.

[0003] Pipette tips play a crucial role in laboratory pipetting operations. If their specifications are incorrect, or there are defects such as leakage holes or surface burrs, it may seriously affect the accuracy and repeatability of experimental results. At present, many manufacturers will conduct manual inspections one by one before leaving the factory to ensure that the quality of the tips meets the standards. However, the one-by-one inspection has low detection efficiency, and even under such strict inspections, due to careless operation or improper protection, there is still a risk of contamination of the pipette tips, and bacteria or other contaminants may adhere to their surfaces.

[0010] Furthermore, on the side of the support plate close to the gear and symmetrically connected on both sides of the gear are support rods, and below the support rods and connected on both sides of the rack are limit posts.

[0011] Based on the above characteristics, the limit posts can limit the position of the gear, thereby ensuring its stable meshing with the rack, and thus realizing the stable movement of the carrier plate.

[0012] Furthermore, the bracket is connected to the base through a number of support legs fixedly provided below it.

[0013] Based on the above characteristics, the support legs can hold up the bracket, providing sufficient space for the movement of the pipette tips.

[0014] Furthermore, the laser detector and the high-definition industrial camera located on the main board are provided directly above the central axis of the porous pipette tip box, and the laser detector and the high-definition industrial camera are electrically connected to the display screen.

[0015] Based on the above characteristics, the detection and shooting results of the laser detector and the high-definition industrial camera will be directly displayed on the display screen, facilitating the intuitive viewing of the detection results.

[0016] The advantages of the present utility model compared with the prior art are as follows: The setting of the porous pipette tip box can place more pipette tips for detection at the same time, and through the shooting and laser detection by the laser detector and the high-definition industrial camera, the detection of multiple pipette tips can be realized simultaneously, with high detection efficiency; The pipette tip box drives multiple pipette tips to move under the action of the motor, the gear and the rack, and through the detection of the laser detector and the high-definition industrial camera, automatic movement detection can be realized, avoiding contamination caused by manual detection touching the pipette tips, which is safe and reliable.
