Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of drug delivery devices, in particular to a grating-type high-precision injection pump. Background Art

[0002] At present, for online water quality monitoring, a syringe pump is required for quantitative collection. However, traditional syringe pumps usually use stepper motors or precision servo motors for stroke measurement. However, simply using a stepper motor for drive measurement has low stroke accuracy, no feedback for lost steps, and relatively poor repeatability. The longer the stroke, the greater the cumulative error. The measurement accuracy is greatly affected by the assembly error. As a result, errors occur when collecting sample liquids, which easily affects the accuracy of the test data. Utility Model Content

[0003] The utility model provides a grating-type high-precision injection pump, aiming to improve the sampling accuracy of the injection pump.

[0004] The utility model is realized by the following technical solution: a grating-type high-precision syringe pump, comprising a base plate, a syringe fixing member connected to the base plate, a syringe mounted on the syringe fixing member, a connecting member and a controller, a grating ruler and a mounting platform arranged parallel to each other connected to the base plate, a slide connected to the grating ruler for horizontal sliding, a slide connected to the mounting platform for horizontal sliding, the connecting member connected to the slide and the slide, a driving member for driving the slide to slide is provided on the mounting platform; the tail end of the push rod of the syringe is fixed to the connecting member;

[0005] A photoelectric sensor switch is connected to the substrate, a sensor sheet is connected to one side of the connector, and the controller is electrically connected to the driving member and the photoelectric sensor switch. When the sensor sheet moves to the photoelectric sensor switch and triggers the photoelectric sensor switch, the controller controls the slide to stop sliding, and at this time the push rod of the syringe is pushed to the bottom of the syringe barrel.

[0006] Compared with the existing technology, this solution has the following advantages and beneficial effects:

[0007] In this solution, a driver drives the slide forward and backward, and the slide is connected to the slide plate via a connector. This allows the slide plate and the slide to operate synchronously, and also the syringe's plunger. As the slide moves, it drives a sensor plate on one side of the connector. When the slide reaches a designated position, the sensor plate triggers a photoelectric sensor switch, which in turn causes the controller to stop the slide and push the syringe's plunger to the bottom of the syringe barrel.

[0008] In this solution, the setting of the grating ruler can detect the distance moved by the syringe to collect samples in real time. In actual use, the grating ruler origin position can be set by cooperating with the sensor plate and the photoelectric sensor switch, and then the origin calibration is performed to find the error value between the set distance and the actual driving distance. Then, the actual metering stroke is obtained by adding the absolute value of the error value to the set grating ruler distance length. Finally, the volume of the injection pump can be calculated according to the diameter of the syringe, thereby improving the accuracy of the syringe to collect samples.

[0009] This syringe pump structure has low assembly requirements. By combining the grating scale and photoelectric sensor switches with the controller, stroke errors can be reduced. The slide, the slide on the grating scale, and the syringe push rod are fixed to achieve synchronous movement. Through control programming, high-precision syringe pump metering can be achieved, thereby improving measurement accuracy.

[0010] Furthermore, the driving member includes a motor and a screw rod, one end of the screw rod is connected to the motor, the other end of the screw rod is rotatably connected to one side of the mounting platform, and the slide is threadedly engaged with the screw rod.

[0011] Beneficial effects: The driving member in this solution can drive the slide to move by rotating the lead screw through the motor. The driving member has a simple structure and stable cooperation with the slide.

[0012] Furthermore, the motor is a stepping motor.

[0013] Beneficial effects: The motor of this solution adopts a stepper motor, which has a simple structure and low cost. In combination with the grating ruler, photoelectric sensor switch, controller, etc. in this utility model, it can overcome the error problem caused by motor step loss.

[0014] Furthermore, a slide rail parallel to the grating ruler is installed on the mounting platform, and the slide platform is in sliding cooperation with the slide rail.

[0015] Beneficial effect: The setting of the slide rail in this solution can guide the sliding of the slide, making the movement of the slide more precise.

[0016] Furthermore, the connecting member includes a first connecting member and a second connecting member, each of the first connecting member and the second connecting member includes two side plates and a bottom plate, and the two side plates are vertically connected to both sides of the bottom plate, the first connecting member covers the outside of the slide and the bottom plate of the first connecting member is connected to the slide, and the bottom plate of the second connecting member is connected to the slide; the two side plates of the first connecting member are respectively connected to the sensor plate and the second connecting member, and the tail end of the push rod of the syringe is fixed to the second connecting member.

[0017] Beneficial effect: The connecting parts in this scheme include a first connecting part and a second connecting part. The structures of the first connecting part and the second connecting part are similar, except that when installing, the installation positions and directions of the base plates of the two are opposite. The slide and the slide plate are connected as one through the first connecting part and the second connecting part, so that the syringe push rod, slide plate and slide plate can run synchronously, which is convenient for automatically driving the syringe for sampling.

[0018] Furthermore, a U-shaped notch is provided on a side of the second connecting member close to the syringe, and the push rod of the syringe is clamped on the U-shaped notch. The second connecting member is provided with a locking member for locking the tail end of the push rod of the syringe.

[0019] Beneficial effects: In this solution, a U-shaped notch is provided on one side of the second connecting member, which facilitates positioning and limiting the push rod, and the locking member can further fix the push rod of the syringe, making the placement position of the syringe more stable.

[0020] Furthermore, the locking member includes a screw, which is threadedly connected to a side surface of the second connecting member away from the syringe. Tightening the screw can compress the tail end of the push rod of the syringe.

[0021] Beneficial effect: The locking rod in this solution is threadedly engaged with a side surface of the second connecting piece through the screw, so that the screw can gradually press the tail end of the push rod of the syringe, thereby fixing the tail end of the push rod of the syringe.

[0022] Furthermore, one end of the screw rod close to the syringe is connected to a limit plate.

[0023] Beneficial effect: The setting of the limiting plate can increase the contact area between the limiting plate and the tail end of the push rod of the syringe, so that the push rod of the syringe is fixed more stably.

[0024] Furthermore, the syringe fixing part is provided with a socket for inserting the syringe barrel, and the socket is arranged horizontally. The side of the syringe fixing part is provided with a plurality of limiting holes communicating with the socket, and the limiting parts are connected to the limiting parts through threads in the limiting holes, and the syringe barrel is limited by tightening the limiting parts.

[0025] Beneficial effect: The socket on the syringe fixing part in this solution can play a role in preliminary positioning of the inserted syringe barrel, and the setting of the limiting hole can further limit and fix the syringe barrel by screwing the limiting part into the limiting hole to prevent the syringe barrel from sliding.

[0026] Furthermore, the mounting platform, grating ruler, syringe fixing part and photoelectric sensor switch are all detachably connected to the base plate.

[0027] Beneficial effect: This arrangement makes it easy to replace the component in time when it is damaged. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0036] The connecting member 6 is connected to the slide 401 and the slide 101, so that the slide 401 and the slide 101 can run synchronously. A driving member for driving the slide 101 to slide is provided on the mounting platform 1; the tail end of the push rod of the syringe 3 is fixed on the connecting member 6; the photoelectric sensor switch 2 is connected to the base plate 7, and the photoelectric sensor switch 2 is an existing slot-type photoelectric sensor switch. A sensing piece 603 is connected to one side of the connecting member 6. The controller is electrically connected to the driving member and the photoelectric sensor switch 2. When the sensing piece 603 moves to the photoelectric sensor switch 2 and triggers the photoelectric sensor switch 2, the controller controls the slide 101 to stop sliding, and at this time the push rod of the syringe 3 is pushed to the bottom of the syringe barrel of the syringe 3.

[0037] In this embodiment, the driving element includes a motor 102 and a screw 103. In this embodiment, the motor 102 is a stepper motor and is fixed to one side of the mounting platform 1 by bolts. One end of the screw 103 is connected to the motor, and the other end of the screw 103 is rotatably connected to the other side of the mounting platform 1.

The slide rail 104 is fixed to the mounting platform 1 by bolts, and the slide 101 is slidably engaged with the slide rail 104.

[0038] Combine Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the connecting member 6 includes a first connecting member 601 and a second connecting member 602, and the first connecting member 601 and the second connecting member 602 each include two side plates and a bottom plate, and the two side plates are vertically connected to the two sides of the bottom plate, the slide 101 is a rectangular parallelepiped, the first connecting member 601 covers the outside of the slide 101 and the bottom plate of the first connecting member 601 is connected to the slide 101 by bolts, and the bottom plate of the second connecting member 602 is connected to the slide plate 401 by bolts; the two side plates of the first connecting member 601 are respectively connected to the sensing plate 603 and the second connecting member 602, and the sensing plate 603 is a metal sensing plate. In this embodiment, the sensing plate 603 and the side plate of the first connecting member 601 are integrally formed or welded or screwed, and the other side plate of the first connecting member 601 is integrally formed or welded with the side plate of the second connecting member 602, and the tail end of the push rod of the syringe 3 is fixed on the second connecting member 602.

[0039] Specific: such as Figure 1 As shown, a U-shaped notch 6022 is provided on a side of the second connecting member 602 close to the syringe 3, and the push rod of the syringe 3 is stuck in the U-shaped notch 6022.

[0043] The mounting platform 1, grating ruler 4, syringe fixing part 5 and photoelectric sensor switch 2 are all detachably connected to the base plate 7. Specifically, they can be detachably fixed to the base plate 7 by bolts or screws, which makes it easy to replace them in time when damaged, with low replacement cost and more convenient installation.

[0044] The specific implementation process is as follows:

[0045] The utility model fixes the slide 101, the slide plate 401 on the grating ruler 4 and the tail end of the push rod of the syringe 3 through the connecting piece 6 to achieve synchronous movement of the three. Through control program design, high-precision syringe pump measurement is achieved.

[0046] 1. Set the syringe origin: fix the syringe push rod 3 to the second connecting piece 602, tighten the screw 8 to press the tail end of the syringe push rod 3 tightly, push the syringe push rod to the bottom of the syringe, and tighten the limiter to lock the syringe.

[0047] 2. Set the origin: Start the motor through the control program to drive the slide 101 to move. The slide 101 drives the slide plate 401 and the sensor plate 603 to move synchronously through the connecting piece 6. When the sensor plate 603 reaches the slot-shaped photoelectric sensor switch 2 and triggers the photoelectric sensor switch 2, the controller controls the slide 101 to stop and sets this point as the reference origin (0 point) of the grating ruler 4.

[0048] 3. Origin calibration: Control the slide 101 to slide beyond the certain stroke limit of the slot-type photoelectric sensor switch 2 (so that the push rod of the syringe is completely pushed to the bottom of the syringe to prevent the push rod from not being completely pushed to the bottom of the syringe due to stroke error). Then retract the grating ruler 4 to set the distance, and then return to the origin. After such a back-and-forth movement, compare the difference between the set distance and the actual number of steps driven by the motor to find the inertial collision error value (± value) to avoid errors caused by step loss of the stepper motor 102.

[0049] 4. Start measuring: According to the required measuring stroke, set the distance length of the grating scale, and add the absolute value of the inertial collision error to get the actual measuring stroke. Finally, the syringe volume can be calculated according to the syringe diameter, so as to accurately obtain the sampling volume of the syringe, thereby realizing accurate detection and measurement, and improving the accuracy of the detection data.

[0050] The structure of the present invention has the integrated effect of multiple functions and features: the high-precision absolute value of the grating ruler 4 is used to achieve no cumulative error over a long stroke, overcoming the problem of increasing cumulative error as the stroke of the traditional injection pump increases, thereby achieving smaller absolute volume error values even for large-capacity measurement; at the same time, the error value of the grating ruler 4 is ±1um, which is a significant improvement over the ±5um accuracy of the traditional stepping motor 102 or servo motor.

[0051] Moreover, through this structural design combined with program verification and origin setting control procedures, assembly errors and component errors can be relaxed, greatly reducing component processing requirements and precision assembly requirements, effectively achieving low cost compatibility with high precision, and batch consistency can be better controlled; overcoming a major drawback of traditional injection pumps that are heavily dependent on high-precision machined parts and precision assembly.

[0052] In addition, compared with the servo motor injection pump, the controller of this structural design is low-cost and easy to control; compared with the ordinary stepper motor 102 injection pump, it can overcome the problem of error caused by lost steps, and has better accuracy and consistency.
