Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of chemiluminescence detection technology, specifically to a reagent kit for a chemiluminescence immunoassay analyzer. Background Technology
[0002] Chemiluminescent immunoassay (CLIA) combines chemiluminescent substances with an immunological reaction, using light to represent the concentration of the measured immunological component. In other words, it combines highly sensitive light reactions with specific immunological responses. During the use of the analyzer, reagent strips are required. In existing technologies, the reagent strips are placed in a simple box and manually loaded, which makes them prone to falling off or tipping over during transportation. Utility Model Content
[0003] Therefore, this utility model provides a reagent kit for a chemiluminescence immunoassay analyzer to achieve reliable storage of the reagent kit and prevent the reagent strips from tipping over or falling during transportation or installation.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0021] The following specific embodiments illustrate the implementation of this utility model. Those skilled in the art can easily understand other advantages and effects of this utility model from the content disclosed in this specification. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this utility model. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.
[0022] In one specific implementation, such as Figures 1-3 As shown, this utility model provides a reagent kit for a chemiluminescence immunoassay analyzer. The reagent kit includes a chamber 1, a lid 2, and a flap 3. The chamber 1 has a accommodating cavity for accommodating reagent strips 4, the accommodating cavity having a top opening 5 and a side opening, and a discharge port 6 on the side wall of the chamber. The chamber 1 is the main supporting and accommodating part of the reagent kit, used to accommodate the reagent strips. The chamber 1 can be made of a sturdy material, such as plastic or metal, to protect the internal reagent strips from external environmental influences, such as humidity, temperature changes, or contamination. The top of the chamber 1 is designed as an opening so that users can easily place or remove the reagent strips 4. The accommodating cavity is the space inside the chamber, and the accommodating cavity is the space where the reagent strips 4 are stored. The discharge port 6 is provided on the side wall of the chamber 1, and the discharge port 6 is the channel for removing the reagent strips from inside the chamber. The design of the discharge port 6 needs to take into account the size and shape of the reagent strips to ensure that they can pass through the discharge port 6 smoothly without damage.
[0023] The lid 2 is closable and can be installed on the chamber 1 to open or close the top opening and side opening of the accommodating cavity. The lid 2 is a cover that closes the top opening and side opening. It can be closable and installed on the chamber 1. The function of the lid 2 is to protect the reagent strip 4 from the influence of the external environment and to ensure the airtightness of the reagent kit.
[0024] The flap 3 is rotatably mounted on the discharge port 6, and a reset component is provided between the flap 3 and the chamber 1. The flap 3 is a plate mounted on the discharge port 6, and the flap 3 can be flipped in the vertical plane relative to the chamber 1 to open or close. The reset component is a component provided between the opening cover and the chamber. Its function is to restore the opening cover to its original position after it is closed. The reset component can be a spring, a buckle or other structure to ensure that the opening cover can fit tightly against the chamber after it is closed, preventing leakage or contamination of the reagent strip.
[0025] During use, when inserting the test strip, push the lid 2 upwards to open the top opening of the receiving cavity. Place the test strip 4 into the receiving cavity through the top opening, ensuring the test strips are correctly positioned and do not overlap or block the outlet. After all test strips are placed, press the lid down to close the top opening of the receiving cavity. To remove the test strip, rotate the flap on the side wall to open the outlet. The test strip is then removed from the receiving cavity through the outlet. After the test strip leaves the outlet, the flap 3 returns to its initial position under the action of the reset component and closes the outlet. In this way, the reagent kit acts as an external fixing frame for the test strips, providing support, preventing the test strips from tipping over, and preventing them from falling out. The test strips can be easily loaded and unloaded, achieving reliable storage of the reagent kit and preventing the test strips from tipping over or falling out during transportation or installation.
[0026] Furthermore, the inner wall of the accommodating cavity is provided with a guide structure, and the reagent strip is loaded into the accommodating cavity along the guide structure. The guide structure is arranged along the installation direction of the reagent strip to ensure the directionality of the reagent strip during installation. This guide structure can be a guide rail or a guide groove, etc.
[0027] To adapt to the structure of the reagent strip, the guiding structure is a guide strip disposed on the inner sidewall of the accommodating cavity, and the guide strip is correspondingly disposed with the grooves on both sides of the reagent strip. There can be two guide strips, which are disposed on both sides of the accommodating cavity, and the two guide strips are respectively disposed with the grooves on both sides of the reagent strip to improve the guiding ability.
[0028] In some embodiments, the rotating end of the flap 3 is rotatably connected to the chamber via a rotating shaft 7 to close or open the discharge port. The reset element is a torsion spring 8, one end of which is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft, and the other end is connected to the flap 3. When the reagent strip is removed, the reagent strip pushes the flap 3 to open, at which point the torsion spring is in a compressed state. When the reagent strip leaves the discharge port, the pushing force on the flap 3 disappears, and the flap resets under the elastic force of the torsion spring 8.
[0029] Furthermore, the cabin body is provided with a guide groove, and the box cover is slidably installed on the cabin body along the guide groove to close or open the opening of the accommodating cavity.
[0030] The working process of the reagent kit provided by this utility model will be briefly described below using the above specific embodiments as examples.
[0031] In its normal initial state, the reagent kit's compartment and lid are assembled together, and the torsion spring is not compressed. Insert the rotating shaft into the mounting holes of the compartment, the flap, and the torsion spring. Manually open the flap, and it will automatically spring back to its initial position when released.
[0032] When loading the reagent strips, the reagent strips are inserted into the chamber. The misaligned slots at both ends of the reagent strips cooperate with the guide strips, and the guide strips correspond to the slots of the reagent strips until the chamber is full. Then, the lid is inserted into the guide groove and pushed in from top to bottom until it is fully inserted, which completes the loading process.
[0033] When removing the test strip, slightly pull up the lid and apply a push to the test strip at the bottom. The test strip contacts the flap, the flap flips outward, and the torsion spring generates torque. When the test strip is pushed out and moves out of the flap's range, it returns to its initial state. Due to gravity at the top, the test strip inside the chamber sinks to the bottom of the receiving cavity, completing one test strip removal.
[0034] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the grooves on both sides of the reagent strip are asymmetrical to ensure that the direction is consistent after insertion, and the injection molding dimensions of the chamber and the lid are consistent, so that it is vertically inserted into the groove to ensure that the injection molding technical parameters are met; the flip plate of the reagent kit flips outward to ensure that it can spring back after being disengaged under the action of thrust. This reagent kit is the main part of the reagent strip packaging and is applicable to various types of reagent strips.
[0035] The above specific embodiments further illustrate the purpose, technical solution, and beneficial effects of this utility model. It should be understood that the above are only specific embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made on the basis of the technical solution of this utility model should be included within the scope of protection of this utility model.
