[0002] In large-scale integrated detection equipment, when using technologies such as fluorescent immunoassay technology, it is necessary to use detection cards to obtain, incubate and detect samples. During this process, the detection card needs to pass through multiple sites in the equipment, including at least but not limited to card slots, sample loading stations, incubation stations and detection stations. A large number of modules have been integrated in the current integrated detection equipment. Setting up transfer mechanisms one by one between the aforementioned card slots, sample loading stations, incubation stations and detection stations will lead to a complex internal structure of the equipment, which is not conducive to later maintenance and will also affect the overall heat dissipation effect, which may ultimately affect the accuracy of the detection results of the detection card.

[0024] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the embodiments, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto.

[0025] The utility model relates to a detection card ferry device suitable for integrated detection equipment, the device comprising a ferry vehicle 2 arranged in conjunction with a detection card 1, and the ferry vehicle 2 is respectively provided with:

[0026] A one-way guide ejection mechanism 3 is used to push the test card 1 into and out of the shuttle bus 2 in one direction and avoid the test card 1 in the other direction;

[0027] The transfer pushing mechanism 4 is used to push the detection card 1 into the shuttle bus 2 in the other direction;

[0028] A controller is provided in conjunction with the one-way conducting pushing mechanism 3 and the transfer pushing mechanism 4.

[0029] In the present utility model, a ferry vehicle 2 is used to cooperate with the transfer and scheduling of the test card 1. It is agreed that Figure 1 as shown, from left to right is the reverse direction, and from right to left is the forward direction;

[0030] When the unidirectional conduction pushing mechanism 3 moves forward, the unidirectional conduction pushing mechanism 3 acts on the test card 1 without deformation, and pushes the test card 1 into the ferry vehicle 2 along the forward direction or pushes the test card 1 out of the ferry vehicle 2 to another working station; while when the unidirectional conduction pushing mechanism 3 moves in the reverse direction, the unidirectional conduction pushing mechanism 3 will produce a deformation for avoidance when acting on the test card 1, return to the preset working station after avoiding the test card 1, and when there is no test card 1, it will directly pass through the ferry vehicle 2;

[0031] When the transfer pushing mechanism 4 acts on the test card 1, it only moves in the reverse direction. It is mainly used to push the test card 1 into the ferry vehicle 2 in the reverse direction, and generally cooperates with the sample addition working station or the incubation working station for operation, facilitating the test card 1 to be pushed back into the ferry vehicle 2 after sample addition or incubation.

[0032] In the present utility model, a controller provided in cooperation with the unidirectional conduction pushing mechanism 3 and the transfer pushing mechanism 4 is used to control the unidirectional conduction pushing mechanism 3 and the transfer pushing mechanism 4 to perform corresponding operations based on the working rhythm. This is content that is easily understood by those skilled in the art, and those skilled in the art can set it according to requirements by themselves.

[0033] The ferry vehicle 2 includes a left card slot 21 and a right card slot 22. The distance between the bottoms of the left card slot 21 and the right card slot 22 is greater than or equal to the width of the test card 1. The widths of the left card slot 21 and the right card slot 22 are greater than or equal to the thickness of the test card 1. The distance between the opposite openings 23 of the left card slot 21 and the right card slot 22 is greater than 0; connectors 24 are provided on the left card slot 21 and the right card slot 22, and the connectors 24 are respectively arranged in cooperation with the unidirectional conduction pushing mechanism 3 and the transfer pushing mechanism 4.

[0034] In the present utility model, the ferry vehicle 2 limits the test card 1 with the structure of the left card slot 21 and the right card slot 22 in cooperation. Specifically, the left card slot 21 and the right card slot 22 are respectively in the shape of "匸" with opposite openings 23. The bottoms of the left card slot 21 and the right card slot 22 refer to the farthest distance between the two slots, and the distance therebetween is greater than or equal to the width of the test card 1. The widths of the left card slot 21 and the right card slot 22 refer to the width of the openings 23 of the two slots, and it is greater than or equal to the thickness of the test card 1, that is, the left card slot 21 and the right card slot 22 can accommodate the test card 1 to pass through; further, the distance between the opposite openings 23 of the left card slot 21 and the right card slot 22 is greater than 0, so as to meet the requirement that the unidirectional conduction pushing mechanism 3 and the transfer pushing mechanism 4 act on the test card 1 between the left card slot 21 and the right card slot 22.

[0035] In the present invention, since the left card slot 21 and the right card slot 22 are separately provided, a connector 24 is used to connect the left card slot 21 and the right card slot 22 , and the connector 24 is used to integrate the unidirectional push-out mechanism 3 and the transfer push-in mechanism 4 .

[0036] The one-way conduction and ejection mechanism 3 includes a first motor 31, a first driving wheel 32 is provided at the output end of the first motor 31, a first driven wheel 33 is provided to cooperate with the first driving wheel 32, a first synchronous belt 34 is provided outside the first driving wheel 32 and the first driven wheel 33, a first shift block 35 is provided on the first synchronous belt 34, the first synchronous belt 34 is arranged under the shuttle bus 2, and the first shift block 35 is arranged upward to cooperate with the opposite openings 23 of the left card slot 21 and the right card slot 22.

[0037] The one-way conducting ejection mechanism 3 includes a first mounting plate 36 , a first synchronous belt 34 is provided on one side of the first mounting plate 36 , and a first slide rail 37 is provided on one side of the first mounting plate 36 to cooperate with the first shift block 35 ; the lower part of the connecting member 24 is connected to the other side of the first mounting plate 36 .

[0038] A slider 38 is provided to cooperate with the first slide rail 37. The slider 38 has a through slot 39. The first shift block 35 is hinged in the through slot 39. A stopper 40 is provided at the lower part of the through slot 39 facing the transfer pushing mechanism 4 to cooperate with the first shift block 35.

[0039] The position sensor 30 is provided on the first mounting plate 36 .

[0040] In the present invention, the first motor 31 drives the first driving wheel 32, the first driven wheel 33 and the first synchronous belt 34 outside thereof to move, thereby driving the first shift block 35 on the first synchronous belt 34 to move along the relative openings 23 of the left card slot 21 and the right card slot 22, thereby realizing the position transfer of the detection card 1; during the implementation process, considering the avoidance effect, the first synchronous belt 34 and the first shift block 35 are located below the shuttle bus 2; during the implementation process, the stroke of the first shift block 35 on the first synchronous belt 34 covers both ends of the shuttle bus 2 and a workstation of the back transfer pushing mechanism 4, and the first synchronous belt 34 is set corresponding to this stroke.

[0041] In the present invention, taking into account the installation, the first mounting plate 36 is used to integrate the first motor 31, the first driving wheel 32, the first driven wheel 33 and the first synchronous belt 34. Obviously, the first driving wheel 32, the first driven wheel 33 and the first synchronous belt 34 are arranged on one side of the first mounting plate 36, and the first motor 31 is arranged on the other side. At the same time, in order to ensure the working stability of the first shift block 35, a corresponding first slide rail 37 is configured for it, which corresponds to the first slide rail 37 through the slider 38 to limit its working height. Further, considering the unidirectional conductivity of the unidirectional push-out mechanism 3, a through groove 39 for hingedly mounting the first shift block 35 is provided in conjunction with the slider 38. When the first shift block 35 faces the side of the transfer push-in mechanism 4 and acts on the detection card 1, the first The shift block 35 has a reverse rotation tendency, but the lower part of the first shift block 35 is blocked by the stop block 40 at the lower part of the through slot 39, and thus cannot rotate. The first shift block 35 pushes the detection card 1 forward (or pushes it into the shuttle bus 2). When the first shift block 35 runs to the end of the shuttle bus 2 close to the transfer and pushing mechanism 4 and needs to return in the reverse direction, the upper part of the first shift block 35 acts on the detection card 1 and has a forward rotation tendency, so it rotates a certain angle and returns from the bottom of the shuttle bus 2 to the end of the shuttle bus 2 away from the transfer and pushing mechanism 4; in order to better achieve the above effect, the side of the first shift block 35 close to the transfer and pushing mechanism 4 is a vertical plane structure, and the upper part of the side of the first shift block 35 away from the transfer and pushing mechanism 4 is set to an inclined structure to facilitate its rotation under force.

[0042] In the present invention, feedback of the position information of the first shift block 35 is obtained through one or more position sensors 30, so that the controller can better control the realization of various actions.

[0043] The transfer and pushing mechanism 4 includes a second motor 41, a second driving wheel 42 is provided at the output end of the second motor 41, a second driven wheel 43 is provided at the output end of the second driving wheel 42, a second synchronous belt 44 is provided outside the second driving wheel 42 and the second driven wheel 43, a second shift block 45 is provided on the second synchronous belt 44, and the second shift block 45 is downwardly arranged to cooperate with the other end of the opposite opening 23 of the left card slot 21 and the right card slot 22.

[0044] The transfer pushing mechanism 4 includes a second mounting plate 46 , a second synchronous belt 44 is arranged above the second mounting plate 46 , and a second slide rail 47 is provided on the second mounting plate 46 to cooperate with the second shift block 45 ; the second mounting plate 46 is fixed to the upper part of the connecting member 24 .

[0045] The second mounting plate 46 is provided with an in-position sensor (not shown in the figure).

[0046] In the present invention, similarly, the second motor 41 drives the second driving wheel 42, the second driven wheel 43 and the second synchronous belt 44 outside thereof to move. Here, it is considered that the transfer pushing mechanism 4 realizes the reverse pushing of the detection card 1 toward the shuttle bus 2, so in fact, the stroke of the second shift block 45 on the second synchronous belt 44 is to push the detection card 1 in the opposite direction toward the relative openings 23 of the left card slot 21 and the right card slot 22 until it is in the shuttle bus 2. Generally, it passes one workstation to the shuttle bus 2, and the second synchronous belt 44 is set corresponding to this stroke; here, the coordination of different workstations and the avoidance between components are taken into consideration, so the position of the second shift block 45 is in the space above the shuttle bus 2.

[0047] In the present invention, taking installation into consideration, the second mounting plate 46 is used to integrate the second motor 41, the second driving wheel 42, the second driven wheel 43 and the second synchronous belt 44. Obviously, the second driving wheel 42, the second driven wheel 43 and the second synchronous belt 44 are arranged above the second mounting plate 46, and the second motor 41 is arranged under the second mounting plate 46; at the same time, in order to ensure the stable operation of the second shift block 45, a corresponding second slide rail 47 is configured for it. The second shift block 45 corresponds to the second slide rail 47 and obviously has a slider 38 structure, which limits the second shift block 45 to move in a straight line; in order to ensure the accuracy of the working position of the second shift block 45, one or more in-position sensors are set on the second mounting plate 46 to obtain feedback on the position information of the second shift block 45, so that the controller can better control the realization of each action.

[0048] In this embodiment, the connecting member 24 is an inverted L-shaped member, the lower portion of which is connected to the side of the first mounting plate 36 where the first motor 31 is provided, and the upper portion of which is used to integrate the second mounting plate 46 .

[0049] In conjunction with the one-way conducting and pushing mechanism 3 , a moving mechanism is provided, whose moving direction is perpendicular to the one-way conducting and pushing mechanism 3 and the transfer pushing mechanism 4 .

[0050] In the present invention, further, another moving mechanism perpendicular to the aforementioned "forward" and "reverse" is provided in conjunction with the one-way conducting and ejecting mechanism 3 to realize the transfer and ferrying of the detection card 1 between various stations on the horizontal plane. In this embodiment, it is embodied in the form of a cable cover 5, which plays a role in protecting the cable in the moving mechanism; the setting of the moving mechanism here is content that can be easily understood by those skilled in the art, and those skilled in the art can set it by themselves according to their needs.

[0051] The above is only a preferred specific implementation method of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited to this. Any technician familiar with the technical field within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention can make equivalent replacements or changes based on the technical solution and utility model concept of the present invention, which should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
