DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0060] As described in the background, cuvettes are widely used in in vitro diagnostic equipment as reaction carriers for blood sample testing. In related technologies, during routine use of cuvettes, mechanical grippers are required to facilitate the placement and handling of cuvettes. These grippers typically rely on motors or pneumatic drives to open and close. However, existing mechanical grippers for cuvettes are complex and expensive. Furthermore, the motor or pneumatic drive process is time-consuming, impacting the efficiency of cuvette placement.

[0061] It can be understood that the process of transporting the reaction cup includes grabbing the reaction cup with a gripper, transporting the reaction cup with added samples and reagents to the incubation and measurement module, grabbing the reaction cup after measurement and discarding it. The inventors have found that in the above processes, each time the reaction cup is transported, the gripper needs to be opened and closed once, and each action requires a motor or air circuit drive, which will increase the time for sample detection in the reaction cup, resulting in inefficient sample detection.

[0062] In response to the above technical problems, an embodiment of the present application provides a sample analysis device, in which a gripping device in the sample analysis device can efficiently take and place a reaction cup without being driven by a driving device, thereby improving the efficiency of sample detection in the reaction cup. That is, the guide structure is configured to open the two clamping parts when it abuts against the reaction cup, allowing the reaction cup to enter between the two clamping parts, thereby clamping the reaction cup. The two clamping parts are closed by the first elastic member to clamp the reaction cup.

[0063] In order to make the above-mentioned purposes, features and advantages of the embodiments of the present application more obvious and easy to understand, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0064] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2The sample analysis device provided in an embodiment of the present application includes a driving mechanism and a gripping device, wherein the gripping device is connected to the driving mechanism to transport a reaction cup through the gripping device, wherein the gripping device includes: a fixing seat 100, two clamping members 200 and a first elastic member 400; wherein the two clamping members 200 are both connected to the fixing seat 100, at least one of the two clamping members 200 can rotate relative to the fixing seat 100, and a guide structure 300 is provided on the clamping member 200, and the guide structure 300 is configured to open the two clamping members 200 when it abuts against the reaction cup 240, so that the reaction cup 240 enters between the two clamping members 200; the first elastic member 400 is connected between the two clamping members 200, and the first elastic member 400 is used to close the two clamping members 200.

[0065] In this way, the gripping device in the sample analysis equipment can efficiently take and place the reaction cup 240 without being driven by a driving device, thereby improving the efficiency of sample detection in the reaction cup 240. That is, the guide structure 300 is configured to open the two clamping members 200 when it is in contact with the reaction cup 240, so that the reaction cup 240 enters between the two clamping members 200, thereby clamping the reaction cup 240. The first elastic member 400 is used to close the two clamping members 200 to clamp the reaction cup 240.

[0066] Combine Figure 3 As shown, each clamping member 200 has a first side surface 210, a second side surface 260, and a third side surface 270. The first side surface 210 is located on the side of the clamping member 200 away from the fixing base 100, the second side surface 260 and the third side surface 270 are arranged opposite to each other, and the first side surface 210 is located between the second side surface 260 and the third side surface 270. It should be noted that the second side surface 260 of the clamping member 200 is the side facing away from the other clamping member 200, and the third side surface 270 of the clamping member 200 is the side facing the other clamping member 200. Figure 2 As shown, the clamping member 200 further has a first end surface 220 . The first end surface 220 is the upper surface of the clamping member 200 close to the first elastic member 400 and is connected between the second side surface 260 and the third side surface 270 .

[0067] Continue to refer Figure 2In some embodiments, the guide structure 300 is an open groove 310 provided on the first side surface 210 of the clamping member 200, and the open groove 310 extends to the third side surface 270. The inner wall of the open groove 310 has a guide slope 311, and the guide slope 311 extends to the opening of the open groove 310, that is, one end of the guide slope 311 extends to the first side surface 210 of the clamping member 200. Exemplarily, both clamping members 200 are provided with an open groove 310, and accordingly, the inner walls of the open grooves 310 of the two clamping members 200 have guide slopes 311. A flare is formed between the two guide slopes 311 to facilitate guiding the reaction cup 240 to enter between the two clamping members 200, thereby strengthening the guiding effect of the reaction cup 240 entering the open groove 310.

[0068] For example, two clamping members 200 are spaced apart from each other on the fixing base 100, and both clamping members 200 can rotate relative to the fixing base 100. When the guide inclined surface 311 abuts against the reaction cup 240, the two clamping members 200 rotate and open, allowing the reaction cup 240 to enter the opening groove 310. In this way, the guide structure 300 enables the clamping members 200 to clamp the reaction cup 240 more efficiently.

[0069] In some embodiments, combined Figure 3 The inner wall of the opening groove 310 is further provided with a clamping groove 312, which extends to the first side surface 210 of the clamping member 200. The clamping groove 312 is configured to be clamped with the end flange of the reaction cup 240. In this way, the stability of the clamping member 200 in clamping the reaction cup 240 is improved by the provision of the clamping groove 312.

[0070] In some embodiments, the shape of the slot 312 matches the outer contour of the end flange of the reaction cup 240 .

[0071] Exemplarily, the slot 312 is an arc-shaped slot 312, and the reaction cup 240 has an arc-shaped end flange. In this way, the shape of the slot 312 is designed to match the shape of the outer end flange of the reaction cup 240, thereby improving the contact stability between the inner wall of the slot 312 and the end face of the reaction cup 240 and reducing the friction and wear between the two.

[0072] In some embodiments, as Figure 3 As shown, the inner wall of the opening groove 310 also has a positioning arc surface 313. The positioning arc surface 313 is located on the inner wall of the opening groove 310 away from the opening. The positioning arc surface 313 is configured to abut against the side wall of the cup body of the reaction cup 240. In this way, the stability of the grasping device in grasping the reaction cup 240 is further improved.

[0073] In some embodiments, reference Figure 2The gripping device also includes a positioning member 500, which is protruded from the first end surface 220 of the clamping member 200; one end of the first elastic member 400 is connected to the positioning member 500 of one of the clamping members 200, and the other end of the first elastic member 400 is connected to the positioning member 500 of the other clamping member 200.

[0074] Exemplarily, the positioning member 500 is a positioning pin, the first end face 220 of the clamping member 200 is the upper surface of the clamping member 200, the positioning pin is fixed to the upper surface of the clamping member 200, and the first elastic member 400 is a spring, which is elastically connected between the positioning pins on the two clamping members 200. This arrangement provides a connection position for the first elastic member 400, and the structural design is simple.

[0075] In some embodiments, combined Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the grasping device also includes a second elastic member 410, which is fixedly connected to the fixing base 100. The second elastic member 410 has an abutment portion 411 extending toward a side away from the fixing base 100. The abutment portion 411 is used to abut against the top of the reaction cup 240 to limit the axial movement of the reaction cup.

[0076] Exemplarily, the second elastic member 410 is a spring structure, and the second elastic member 410 is roughly L-shaped. One end of the second elastic member 410 is fixedly connected to the fixing seat 100, and the other end extends in a direction roughly parallel to the first end face 220 to form an abutment portion 411, and the abutment portion 411 is located above the reaction cup 240. In this way, the reaction cup 240 located in the opening groove 310 can be axially limited to prevent the reaction cup 240 from moving along its axial direction when the grasping device moves the reaction cup 240. In addition, the static friction between the second elastic member 410 and the upper end of the reaction cup 240 further reduces the radial shaking of the reaction cup 240.

[0077] For example, Figure 3 As shown, the contact portion 411 is further provided with an avoidance slope 4111 , which can prevent the reaction cup 240 from interfering with the second elastic member 410 , so that the reaction cup 240 can smoothly enter between the two clamping members 200 .

[0078] In some embodiments, as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the gripping device further includes a handle 230, which is fixedly connected to the second side surface 260 of the clamping member 200. The second side surface 260 of one clamping member 200 is the side surface facing away from the other clamping member 200. The handle 230 is used to receive force to drive the clamping members 200 to rotate, so that the two clamping members 200 move away from each other.

[0079] Illustratively, the handle 230 is cylindrical, and the surface of the clamping member 200 facing away from the opening slot 310 has a connecting hole, and one end of the cylindrical handle is inserted into the connecting hole. In this way, the setting of the handle 230 facilitates manual force to separate the two clamping members 200, or, through an additional cup-dropping mechanism that abuts against the handle 230, the handle 230 drives the clamping member 200 to rotate outward to release the reaction cup 240.

[0080] In some embodiments, reference Figure 4 and Figure 5 The sample analysis device also includes a cup dropping device 700, which includes a base 710 and a baffle 720. The baffle 720 is arranged on the base 710, and a cup dropping channel 711 is provided on the base 710. The baffle 720 cooperates with the handle 230, that is, when the transmission arm of the driving mechanism drives the grasping device to move above the cup dropping channel 711, the baffle 720 abuts against the handle 230, and the handle 230 is driven by force to drive the two clamping members 200 to move away from each other, so that the reaction cup 240 falls into the cup dropping channel 711.

[0081] In this way, without manual operation, the physical contact between the baffle 720 of the cup dropping device 700 and the clamping member 200 can prompt the clamping clamp to rotate and release the reaction cup 240, thereby completing the automatic cup dropping process and improving the cup dropping efficiency.

[0082] Combine Figure 1 In some embodiments, the gripping device further includes a limiting member 110, which is fixedly connected to the fixing seat 100, and the limiting member 110 has a limiting portion 111; the limiting portion 111 is located on the rotation path of the clamping member 200, and is constructed to limit the rotation angle of the clamping member 200 when it abuts against the clamping member 200.

[0083] Exemplarily, the limiting member 110 is a plate-like structure, with two first limiting connection holes spaced apart on the limiting member, and two second limiting connection holes spaced apart on the fixing seat 100 corresponding to the limiting connection holes. The limiting member is fixedly connected to the fixing seat 100 by limiting screws passing through the first limiting connection hole and the second limiting connection hole. The limiting plate has a limiting portion 111, and part of the limiting portion 111 covers the top surface of the clamping member 200. The limiting portion 111 has an extension section 1111, which extends from the top of the clamping member 200 to the opening groove 310. When the clamping member 200 rotates a certain angle toward the inside of the opening groove 310, the extension section 1111 abuts against the inner wall of the opening groove 310, thereby better limiting the rotation angle of the clamping member 200 toward the inside to avoid excessive closure of the clamping member 200 and causing structural damage to the reaction cup 240.

[0084] On the basis of the above embodiment, it can be improved that one of the clamping members 200 is provided with a limiting groove 250 on one side relative to the other clamping member 200, the limiting groove 250 is located on the third side 270, the handle 230 is protruded from the second side 260, and the limiting portion 111 extends into the limiting groove 250 to limit the rotation angle of the clamping member 200 when it is closed, thereby further improving the limiting effect of the limiting member 110 on the clamping member 200.

[0085] In some embodiments, combined Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the fixing seat 100 has a positioning boss 120, which protrudes toward the side away from the clamping member 200. The driving mechanism includes a transmission arm 130, and the transmission arm 130 has a positioning side wall. The positioning boss 120 is used to cooperate with the positioning side wall to limit the position, so as to facilitate the installation of the fixing seat 100 to the transmission arm 130.

[0086] Illustratively, two first mounting holes are provided on the fixing base 100 at intervals, and a second mounting hole is provided on the transmission arm 130 corresponding to the first mounting hole. The fixing base 100 is fixed to the moving mechanism by mounting bolts passing through the first mounting holes and the second mounting holes. When the positioning boss 120 abuts against the positioning side wall of the transmission arm, the first mounting hole and the second mounting hole are aligned to fix the fixing base 100 to the transmission arm 130, thereby enhancing the connection stability between the fixing base 100 and the transmission arm, thereby ensuring the movement stability when the driving mechanism moves the reaction cup 240 to grasp the device.

[0087] In some embodiments, as Figure 3 As shown, the gripping device also includes a rotating shaft 600, the clamping member 200 has an axial hole, the fixing seat 100 has a connecting hole, and the rotating shaft 600 is passed through the axial hole and the connecting hole. For example, there are two rotating shafts 600, and both clamping members 200 have an axial hole. The fixing seat 100 is provided with two connecting holes at intervals, and the two connecting holes are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence with the two axial holes. The two rotating shafts 600 are passed through the axial hole and the connecting hole, so that the clamping member 200 can be efficiently rotated and connected to the fixing seat 100, which is beneficial to the opening and closing of the two clamping members 200.

[0088] In some embodiments, combined Figure 6 and Figure 7 The sample analysis equipment also includes a measuring device 800 and a mixing device 900. The measuring device 800 is located on one side of the cup dropping device 700. The measuring device 800 is provided with multiple detection units 810. Each detection unit 810 has a receiving cavity for accommodating a reaction cup. The detection unit 810 can incubate and measure the sample to ensure the accuracy and stability of the reaction, and can control and monitor the temperature and time in the reaction cup; the mixing device is used to mix the materials in the reaction cup.

[0089] Furthermore, the measuring device 800 is stacked with upper cover insulation cotton and upper cover plate 830. The measuring device 800 is an arc-shaped seat, and inner insulation cotton 840 is provided on the inner side of the arc-shaped seat. Furthermore, it also includes a support frame 820. The measuring device 800 is set on the support frame 820, and bottom insulation cotton 850 is provided between the support frame 820 and the measuring device 800. Furthermore, the support frame 820 is connected to the side away from the measuring device 800 with a support column 821. In this way, the setting of multiple insulation cottons ensures the temperature of the reaction cup in the cup slot is stable, which is beneficial to the stability of the biochemical reaction of the sample in the reaction cup, so as to ensure the detection accuracy.
