Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical testing equipment technology, specifically to a light source cooling system for a fully automated biochemical analyzer. Background Technology

[0002] The fully automated biochemical analyzer can perform immunological and biochemical analyses on serum, plasma, urine, gastric juice, cerebrospinal fluid, and pleural and peritoneal fluid, such as testing for clinical items like myocardial enzyme profiles, blood glucose, blood lipids, liver function, kidney function, and immunoglobulins. The fully automated biochemical analyzer consists of a user-friendly software operating system, an intelligent optical unit, a complex mechanical system, and precise fluid and electronic systems. The optical unit is a crucial device for ensuring the normal operation of the instrument and the accuracy of the data, and its light source cooling system is essential for ensuring stable operation and extending the lifespan of the light source lamp.

[0003] Currently, most instruments use halogen bulbs as their light source. To ensure light output and lifespan, cooling devices are necessary, often using fans. However, this method has several drawbacks: 1. Poor and uneven cooling, leading to unstable bulb temperatures that affect lifespan and measurement accuracy. 2. Requires space-consuming fan installation. 3. Increases instrument cost and maintenance expenses. Utility Model Content

[0004] This invention proposes a cooling system for the light source of a fully automated biochemical analyzer, which solves the problem of heat dissipation difficulties in the light source of instruments in related technologies.

[0005] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows:

[0006] A cooling system for the light source of a fully automated biochemical analyzer, comprising:

[0007] The base has mounting holes and a water passage cavity;

[0008] A light bulb is disposed within the mounting hole, and the water-passing cavity surrounds the light bulb.

[0009] Optionally, the base also has a light-transmitting hole that communicates with the mounting hole and is used to provide a light source.

[0010] Optionally, it also includes:

[0011] A water inlet pipe is installed on the base and communicates with the water passage cavity;

[0012] The water outlet pipe is installed on the base and communicates with the water passage cavity.

[0013] Optionally, it also includes:

[0014] The water tank has a first inlet and a first outlet;

[0015] The instrument water distributor has a second water inlet and a second water outlet, with the first water outlet connected to the second water inlet;

[0016] The driving component has a third water inlet and a third water outlet, the third water inlet being connected to the second water outlet, the third water outlet being connected to the water inlet pipe, and the water outlet pipe being connected to the first water inlet.

[0017] Optionally, the water passage cavity is a spiral cavity.

[0018] Optionally, the height of the inlet pipe is lower than the height of the outlet pipe.

[0019] Optionally, it also includes:

[0020] The first pipeline has one end connected to the inlet pipe and the other end connected to the third outlet. One end of the first pipeline and the inlet pipe form a first water storage chamber, which is used to store leaked water.

[0021] The second pipeline has one end connected to the outlet pipe and the other end connected to the first inlet. One end of the second pipeline and the outlet pipe form a second water storage chamber, which is used to store leaked water.

[0022] Optionally, it also includes:

[0023] The alarm device has two parts, which are respectively installed on the first pipeline or the second pipeline. When water is stored in the first water storage chamber or the second water storage chamber, the alarm device will sound an alarm.

[0024] Optionally, the alarm device includes:

[0025] A water tray is lifted and positioned within the first or second water storage chamber.

[0026] A switch is located at the bottom of the first water storage chamber or the second water storage chamber. The switch is triggered when the water receiving tray descends.

[0027] An alarm is installed on the first or second pipeline. When the switch is triggered, the alarm sounds.

[0028] Optionally, the water receiving tray has a hemispherical structure.

[0029] The working principle and beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0030] In this invention, mounting holes and a water passage cavity are machined into the base. The mounting hole is located at the center of the base so that the light emitted by the bulb can accurately illuminate the detection area of ​​the biochemical analyzer. The water passage cavity surrounds the mounting hole, forming a ring-shaped water channel. During the operation of the biochemical analyzer, the bulb temperature and the operating status of the cooling system are continuously monitored. A temperature sensor can be installed near the bulb to transmit temperature data to the control system. If the temperature exceeds a set threshold, the control system can issue an alarm or automatically adjust the power of the water pump to increase the flow rate of cold water and improve the cooling effect.

[0031] Light bulbs generate a significant amount of heat during operation. If this heat is not dissipated promptly, the bulb's temperature will rise, accelerating aging and damage. By incorporating a water-cooling chamber in the base and circulating cold water to cool the bulb, the operating temperature can be effectively reduced, minimizing heat damage and extending the bulb's lifespan. Using a cold water cooling system quickly removes the heat generated by the bulb, maintaining a stable temperature and enhancing system stability, thus reducing the probability of malfunctions. Compared to traditional air cooling, water cooling is more efficient, achieving better heat dissipation with lower energy consumption. This not only reduces energy consumption and waste but also lowers operating noise, improving the comfort of the working environment. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0038] To more clearly illustrate the technical solutions in the embodiments of this utility model or the prior art, the specific implementation methods of this utility model will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the accompanying drawings described below are merely some embodiments of this utility model. For those skilled in the art, they can be understood as further technical solutions without creative effort. In some drawings, components with the same structure or function are only schematically illustrated, or only one is marked. In this document, "a" not only means "only one," but can also mean "more than one," and "several" includes "two" and "more than two."

[0039] In this document, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "linking" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to fixed connections, detachable connections, or integral connections; they can refer to mechanical connections or electrical connections; they can refer to direct connections or indirect connections through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0040] Furthermore, in the description of this application, the terms "first," "second," etc., are used only to distinguish descriptions and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0041] Reference Figures 1-4 The first embodiment of this utility model proposes a fully automated biochemical analyzer light source cooling system, including: a base 1 having a mounting hole 11 and a water passage cavity 12; a bulb 2 disposed in the mounting hole 11, with the water passage cavity 12 surrounding the bulb 2.

[0042] In this embodiment, mounting holes 11 and water passage chambers 12 are machined on the base 1. The mounting holes 11 are located at the center of the base 1 so that the light emitted by the bulb 2 can accurately illuminate the detection area of ​​the biochemical analyzer. The water passage chamber 12 surrounds the mounting holes 11, forming an annular water channel. During the operation of the biochemical analyzer, the temperature of the bulb 2 and the operating status of the cooling system are continuously monitored. A temperature sensor can be installed near the bulb 2 to transmit temperature data to the control system. If the temperature exceeds a set threshold, the control system can issue an alarm or automatically adjust the power of the water pump to increase the flow rate of cold water and improve the cooling effect.

[0043] The bulb 2 generates a significant amount of heat during operation. If this heat is not dissipated promptly, the bulb 2's temperature will rise, accelerating its aging and damage. By incorporating a water chamber 12 on the base 1 and circulating cold water to cool the bulb 2, the operating temperature of the bulb 2 can be effectively reduced, minimizing heat damage and extending its lifespan. Using a cold water cooling system quickly removes the heat generated by the bulb 2, maintaining a stable temperature and enhancing system stability, thus reducing the probability of malfunctions. Compared to traditional air cooling, water cooling is more efficient, achieving better heat dissipation with lower energy consumption. This not only reduces energy consumption and waste but also lowers operating noise, improving the comfort of the working environment.

[0044] Furthermore, the base 1 also has a light-transmitting hole 13, which is connected to the mounting hole 11 and is used to provide a light source.

[0045] In this embodiment, the light-transmitting hole 13 is connected to the mounting hole 11 to ensure that the light emitted by the bulb 2 can be efficiently emitted through the light-transmitting hole 13. After installing the bulb 2 in the mounting hole 11 of the base 1, adjust the position of the bulb 2 so that its light-emitting center is aligned with the center of the light-transmitting hole 13 to ensure the accuracy and stability of the illumination. After installation, the system is debugged. Turn on the bulb 2 and observe the light intensity and uniformity at the light-transmitting hole 13. If uneven illumination or insufficient intensity is found, it can be improved by adjusting the position of the bulb 2, replacing the bulb 2, or optimizing the design of the light-transmitting hole 13.

[0046] The design of the light-transmitting hole 13 being connected to the mounting hole 11 ensures that the light emitted by the bulb 2 can directly and accurately illuminate the area requiring a light source through the light-transmitting hole 13, providing stable and reliable illumination for the fully automated biochemical analyzer.

[0047] Furthermore, it also includes: an inlet pipe 4, mounted on the base 1 and connected to the water passage chamber 12; and an outlet pipe 5, mounted on the base 1 and connected to the water passage chamber 12. It also includes: a water tank 6, having a first inlet and a first outlet; an instrument water distributor 7, having a second inlet and a second outlet, with the first outlet connected to the second inlet; and a drive unit 8, having a third inlet and a third outlet, with the third inlet connected to the second outlet, the third outlet connected to the inlet pipe 4, and the outlet pipe 5 connected to the first inlet.

[0048] In this embodiment, the entire light source system is installed at a specific test location on the instrument. The cooling circulating water uses water from the instrument's built-in water tank 6. The inlet pipe 4 and outlet pipe 5 are securely installed on the base 1, ensuring a good seal and no leakage at the connection with the water passage chamber 12. A first inlet and a first outlet are provided on the water tank 6, ensuring the connection is airtight. The water tank 6 is placed in a suitable location near the biochemical analyzer for connection with other components. The first outlet and the second inlet are connected via suitable pipes. The third inlet is connected to the second outlet, the third outlet is connected to the inlet pipe 4, and the outlet pipe 5 is connected to the first inlet, forming a complete cooling water circulation system. After installation, the cooling system is tested. First, check for leaks at all connections to ensure the system's airtightness. Then, turn on the drive unit 8 and observe the water flow. Adjust the power or flow control device of the drive unit 8 to achieve a moderate water flow rate that meets cooling requirements without placing excessive pressure on the system. The cooling system, consisting of inlet pipe 4, outlet pipe 5, water tank 6, instrument water distributor 7, and drive unit 8, can achieve continuous cold water circulation and effectively remove the heat generated by bulb 2.

[0049] Furthermore, the water passage cavity 12 is a spiral cavity. The height of the water inlet pipe 4 is lower than the height of the water outlet pipe 5.

[0050] In this embodiment, the height of the inlet pipe 4 is lower than the height of the outlet pipe 5 to ensure that cold water can flow fully through the entire water passage chamber 12, achieving a good cooling effect. The spiral-shaped water passage chamber 12 increases the contact area between the water flow and the bulb 2, prolonging the residence time of the water flow within the water passage chamber 12, thereby improving the cooling effect. The spiral chamber design makes the water flow more stable, reducing turbulence and vortex phenomena. This helps improve the reliability and stability of the cooling system, reducing the decrease in cooling effect or system failure caused by unstable water flow.

[0051] Furthermore, it also includes: a first pipe 9, one end connected to the inlet pipe 4, and the other end connected to the third outlet. One end of the first pipe 9 and the inlet pipe 4 form a first water storage chamber 91, which is used to store leaked water; a second pipe 10, one end connected to the outlet pipe 5, and the other end connected to the first inlet. One end of the second pipe 10 and the outlet pipe 5 form a second water storage chamber, which is used to store leaked water. It also includes: two alarm devices 111, respectively installed on the first pipe 9 or the second pipe 10. When water is stored in the first water storage chamber 91 or the second water storage chamber, the alarm device 111 will sound an alarm. The alarm component 111 includes: a water tray 112, which is raised and lowered within the first water storage chamber 91 or the second water storage chamber; a switch 113, located at the bottom of the first water storage chamber 91 or the second water storage chamber, which is triggered when the water tray 112 descends; and an alarm 114, located on the first pipe 9 or the second pipe 10, which sounds an alarm when the switch 113 is triggered. The water tray 112 has a hemispherical structure.

[0052] In this embodiment, one end of the first pipe 9 is connected to the inlet pipe 4 to form a first water storage chamber 91; one end of the second pipe 10 is connected to the outlet pipe 5 to form a second water storage chamber. The water receiving tray 112 adopts a hemispherical structure design to ensure that it can accurately store leaked water, and utilizes the gravity of the leaked water to descend, positioning the switch 113 at the bottom of either the first or second water storage chamber. When the water receiving tray 112 descends to a certain level, it can trigger the switch 113. After the switch 113 is triggered, the alarm 114 can emit an alarm signal.

[0053] By setting up a first water storage chamber 91 and a second water storage chamber, along with a corresponding alarm device 111, water leakage problems in the cooling system can be detected promptly. Once a leak occurs, the water collection tray 112 will descend as the water level increases, triggering switch 113 and causing alarm 114 to emit an alarm signal, alerting staff to handle the situation promptly and preventing equipment damage or impact on test results due to the leak. The alarm device 111 improves the reliability of the cooling system. It can promptly issue an alarm when a leak occurs and temporarily prevent further leakage. Simultaneously, the hemispherical water collection tray 112 better adapts to the shape of the water storage chamber, improving water retention and ensuring alarm accuracy. The design of the alarm device 111 makes the maintenance and management of the cooling system more convenient. Staff can quickly locate the leak through the alarm signal from alarm 114 and carry out timely repairs and handling. Furthermore, the water storage chambers collect leaked water, preventing it from affecting the surrounding environment.

Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solution of this utility model without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of this utility model, and all such modifications or substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
