[0039] The in vitro diagnostic device according to a first aspect of the present invention will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. The in vitro diagnostic device is a device for testing human samples (such as blood, body fluids, tissues, etc.) to obtain clinical diagnostic information, thereby determining diseases or bodily functions. It should be noted that, for ease of description and understanding, in this specification, the left-right direction is designated as the first direction, the up-down direction as the second direction, and the front-back direction as the third direction.

[0040] This utility model embodiment provides an in vitro diagnostic device 100, see reference. Figures 1 to 4As shown, the in vitro diagnostic device 100 includes an incubation tray 110, a reagent tray 111, a temperature control device 120, and a conductive assembly 130. The incubation tray 110 and reagent tray 111 are used for sample testing. When the incubation tray 110 and reagent tray 111 are used for testing, the reagent tray 111 needs to be cooled and the incubation tray 110 needs to be heated to ensure the sample testing results. The reagent tray 111 and incubation tray 110 are separated. The temperature control device 120 includes a first component 121 and a second component 122, which are connected by the conductive assembly 130. Both the first component 121 and the second component 122 have a cooling surface 123 and a heating surface 124 arranged opposite to each other. The cooling surface 123 of the first component 121 is connected to the reagent tray 111 to cool it, and the heating surface 124 of the second component 122 is connected to the incubation tray 110 to heat it. The conductive component 130 has a first end 1311 and a second end 1321. The first end 1311 is a portion of the conductive component 130 connecting to the first component 121, and the second end 1321 is a portion of the conductive component 130 connecting to the second component 122. In this embodiment, the first end 1311 and the second end 1321 are the sidewalls at both ends of the conductive component 130. In other embodiments, the first end 1311 and the second end 1321 are the ends of the conductive component 130. The conductive component 130 has a hollow structure 133 inside, which conducts the first end 1311 and the second end 1321. The first end 1311 is connected to the heating surface 124 of the first component 121, and the second end 1321 is connected to the cooling surface 123 of the second component 122, so that the heat generated by the heating surface 124 of the first component 121 can be neutralized by the cooling energy generated by the cooling surface 123 of the second component 122 through the conductive component 130.

[0041] Specifically, in one example, the first component 121 and the second component 122 of the temperature control device 120 employ semiconductors for cooling and heating. Semiconductor cooling and heating utilizes direct current passing through an electric couple formed by two different semiconductor materials. The two ends of the electric couple absorb and release heat respectively, allowing the first component 121 and the second component 122 to simultaneously cool and heat during operation. When the first component 121 and the second component 122 begin operating, the cooling surface 123 of the first component 121 provides cooling to the reagent tray 111, while the heating surface 124 of the second component 122 provides heat to the incubation tray 110. Simultaneously, the heating surface 124 of the first component 121 generates heat, and the cooling surface 123 of the second component 122 generates cooling. At this time, the heating surface 124 of the first component 121 and the cooling surface 123 of the second component 122 are connected by the conductive component 130, so that the heat generated by the first component 121 and the cold generated by the second component 122 are discharged into the hollow structure 133 of the conductive component 130, so that the heat and cold are neutralized in the hollow structure 133, thereby effectively utilizing the energy generated by the temperature control device 120 and improving the temperature control efficiency of the incubation tray 110 and the reagent tray 111.

[0042] The in vitro diagnostic device 100 of this embodiment provides cooling to the reagent tray 111 via a first component 121 and heating to the incubation tray 110 via a second component 122, ensuring sample detection results. Simultaneously, a conductive component 130 connects the heating surface 124 of the first component 121 and the cooling surface 123 of the second component 122, allowing the heat generated by the first component 121 and the cold generated by the second component 122 to be neutralized. This ensures efficient utilization of the energy generated by the first and second components, preventing energy waste from being released into the atmosphere. Furthermore, it avoids the situation where releasing the heat from the first component 121 and the cold generated by the second component 122 into the atmosphere would cause the ambient temperature around the reagent tray 111 to rise, affecting its cooling, or cause the ambient temperature around the incubation tray 110 to drop, affecting its heating.

[0043] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown, the conductive component 130 includes a first connecting member 131 and a second connecting member 132, wherein the interiors of the first connecting member 131 and the second connecting member 132 are connected. The first connecting member 131 is connected to the heating surface 124 of the first component 121, and the second connecting member 132 is connected to the cooling surface 123 of the second component 122. A first end 1311 is disposed in the first connecting member 131, and a second end 1321 is disposed in the second connecting member 132. The energy generated by the first component 121 and the second connecting member 132 can be conducted through the first connecting member 131 and the second connecting member 132, so that the heat generated by the first component 121 and the cold generated by the second component 122 are conducted to the hollow structure 133 for neutralization. Meanwhile, the first connecting member 131 and the second connecting member 132 can realize the energy conduction between the first component 121 and the second component 122, avoiding energy loss. Furthermore, the first connecting member 131 and the second connecting member 132 can absorb some energy, reducing the impact of energy emission on the ambient temperature changes around the reagent tray 111 and the incubation tray 110, promoting energy conduction between the first component 121 and the second component 122, reducing heat emission from the temperature control device 120, and reducing the energy consumption of the temperature control device 120.

[0044] Further, see Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, both the interior of the first connecting member 131 and the interior of the second connecting member 132 define a conductive cavity 134, which is part of the hollow structure 133. The conductive cavity 134, along a first direction, connects to the side of the first connecting member 131 opposite to the second connecting member 132, forming a first opening 1312, and connects to the side of the second connecting member 132 opposite to the first connecting member 131, forming a second opening 1322. That is, one end of the first connecting member 131 is connected to one end of the second connecting member 132, making the conductive cavities 134 of the first connecting member 131 and the second connecting member 132 interconnected. The other ends of the first connecting member 131 and the second connecting member 132 are connected by the conductive cavity 134, forming openings. The in vitro diagnostic device 100 also includes a fan 140, with the first opening 1312 and the second opening 1322 respectively connected to the fan 140. The fan 140 is used to blow air into the interior of the conductive cavity 134 through the first opening 1312 and the second opening 1322. When the heat generated by the first component 121 and the cold generated by the second component 122 are conducted to the hollow structure 133 of the conductive component 130, the fan 140 can accelerate the air flow inside the hollow structure 133, thereby promoting the combination of heat and cold and improving the working efficiency of the first component 121 and the second component 122.

[0045] Further, see Figures 1 to 4As shown, the conductive component 130 also includes an air duct 135, the interior of which defines a channel for conducting gas. In this embodiment, the interiors of the first connecting member 131 and the second connecting member 132 define a conductive cavity 134, which is connected to the channel of the air duct 135. The hollow structure 133 includes the conductive cavity 134 and the channel. When the heat from the first component 121 enters the conductive cavity 134 of the first connecting member 131 and the cold energy from the second component 122 enters the conductive cavity 134 of the second connecting member 132, the heat and cold energy will flow into the channel of the air duct 135 for neutralization. Since the heights of the incubation tray 110 and the reagent tray 111 are not exactly equal when using the in vitro diagnostic device 100, the air duct 135 is a deformable structure, such as a corrugated pipe. By using the air duct 135, even when the height positions of the incubation tray 110 and the reagent tray 111 are different, the conductive cavity 134 of the first connecting member 131 and the conductive cavity 134 of the second connecting member 132 can still be connected, so that the incubation tray 110 and the reagent tray 111 can be tested normally, thus improving the universality of the in vitro diagnostic equipment 100.

[0046] Further, see Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the in vitro diagnostic device 100 also includes a fixing member 150, wherein the first connecting member 131 and the second connecting member 132 are connected by an air duct 135. The fixing member 150 is provided at the connection points of the air duct 135 and the first connecting member 131, and at the connection points of the air duct 135 and the second connecting member 132. The fixing member 150 has a through hole 151, which penetrates the fixing member 150 and connects to the conductive cavity 134. When the air duct 135 is connected to the conductive cavity 134, at least a portion of the air duct 135 is accommodated in the through hole 151 and fixed thereto, thereby connecting to the hollow structure 133 of the conductive assembly 130. When the in vitro diagnostic device 100 is working, gas flows through the air duct 135 to promote the cooling and cooling of the first component 121 and the second component 122. The fastener 150 clamps and secures the first component 121 and the air duct 135, as well as the second component 122 and the air duct 135, preventing the air duct 135 from detaching from the first component 121 or the second component 122 due to gas flow. In this embodiment, the fastener 150 secures the air duct 135, the first component 121, and the second component 122 via a threaded connection. In other embodiments, the fastener 150 can also secure the air duct 135, the first component 121, and the second component 122 via a snap-fit ​​connection, a pin connection, or an adhesive connection.

[0047] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 and Figure 4As shown, in the second direction, the height of the first end 1311 is less than the height of the second end 1321. Specifically, there is a height difference between the first end 1311 and the second end 1321 in the second direction, with the first end 1311 positioned lower than the second end 1321. Since the first end 1311 is the heating surface 124 connecting the first component 121, the energy to be conducted by the first end 1311 is heat, and the second end 1321 is the cooling surface 123 connecting the second component 122, the energy to be conducted by the second end 1321 is cold. Under standard atmospheric pressure, the density of cold is greater than that of heat; cold sinks, and heat rises. Therefore, by making the height of the first end 1311 less than the height of the second end 1321, the flow of cold and heat can be accelerated, promoting the neutralization of cold and heat, and improving the temperature control efficiency of the temperature control device 120.

[0048] In some embodiments, see Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, Figure 5 The diagram shows one of the connecting members in the conductive assembly 130. This connecting member can be either the first connecting member 131 or the second connecting member 132. The conductive assembly 130 has connecting holes 136 along a second direction, located on the side of the conductive assembly 130 facing the first component 121 and the second component 122. The number of connecting holes 136 matches the number of the first component 121 and the second component 122; that is, in this embodiment, both the first connecting member 131 and the second connecting member 132 have connecting holes 136, with the number of connecting holes 136 on the first connecting member 131 matching the number of the first component 121, and the number of connecting holes 136 on the second connecting member 132 matching the number of the second component 122. The connecting holes 136 connect to the hollow structure 133 of the conductive assembly 130. When the first end 1311 is connected to the heating surface 124 of the first component 121 and the second end 1321 is connected to the cooling surface 123 of the second component 122, the heating surface 124 of the first component 121 and the cooling surface 123 of the second component 122 will be accommodated in the connection hole 136 to conduct energy to the hollow structure 133.

[0049] In another embodiment, the conductive component 130 does not have a connection hole 136. The conductive component 130 is made of a thermally conductive material. When the first end 1311 is connected to the heating surface 124 of the first component 121 and the second end 1321 is connected to the cooling surface 123 of the second component 122, the heating surface 124 of the first component 121 and the cooling surface 123 of the second component 122 abut against the outer wall of the conductive component 130, and the first component 121 and the second component 122 conduct energy through the conductive component 130.

[0050] Furthermore, the conductive component 130 includes an extension 137 disposed within the hollow structure 133. Specifically, in one example, see [reference needed]. Figure 5 As shown, the extension 137 is formed by the inner wall of the hollow structure 133 of the conductive component 130 extending upward in a third direction, that is, the front and rear side walls of the conductive component 130 extend into the hollow structure 133 to form the extension 137. Simultaneously, the extension 137 extends to the first end 1311 and the second end 1321 in a first direction. Furthermore, there are multiple extensions 137, which are spaced apart along a second direction. The extensions 137 can increase the heat transfer area of ​​the conductive component 130, improve the heat exchange effect of the conductive component 130, thereby increasing the energy conduction rate in the hollow structure 133 and improving the heat neutralization effect of the first component 121 and the second component 122.

[0051] In some embodiments, see Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, both the incubation tray 110 and the reagent tray 111 have a detection cavity 115 defined inside. The detection cavity 115 is used to hold the test sample so that the incubation tray 110 and the reagent tray 111 can test the sample. The bottom of the incubation tray 110 and the reagent tray 111 are recessed in the second direction towards the detection cavity 115 to form a groove 116. When the reagent tray 111 is connected to the first component 121 and the incubation tray 110 is connected to the second component 122, the first component 121 will be accommodated in the groove 116 of the reagent tray 111, and the second component 122 will be accommodated in the groove 116 of the incubation tray 110. The groove 116 can form a circumferential positioning for the installation and fixation of the first component 121 and the second component 122, preventing the first component 121 and the second component 122 from moving. Meanwhile, the recessed direction of the groove 116 is towards the detection cavity 115, which can reduce the wall thickness between the first component 121 and the detection cavity 115 of the reagent tray 111, and reduce the wall thickness between the second component 122 and the detection cavity 115 of the incubation tray 110, thereby improving the energy conduction rate of the first component 121 and the second component 122, promoting the cooling effect of the first component 121 on the reagent tray 111, and the heating effect of the second component 122 on the incubation tray 110, and improving the temperature control efficiency of the first component 121 and the second component 122.

[0052] In some embodiments, see Figure 3 As shown, Figure 3 The diagram shown illustrates the connection between the conductive layer 160 and the temperature control device 120. Figure 3The components shown can be either the first component 121 or the second component 122. The in vitro diagnostic device 100 also includes a conductive layer 160, which facilitates energy conduction. The conductive layer 160 is disposed between the cooling surface 123 of the first component 121 and the reagent tray 111, and between the heating surface 124 of the second component 122 and the incubation tray 110. During connection, the bottom walls of the cooling surface 123 and the reagent tray 111 are tightly fitted with the conductive layer 160, and similarly, the bottom walls of the heating surface 124 and the incubation tray 110 are tightly fitted with the conductive layer 160, thereby increasing energy conduction efficiency, improving the cooling effect of the first component 121 on the reagent tray 111, and the heating effect of the second component 122 on the incubation tray 110, thus improving the detection efficiency of the in vitro diagnostic device 100.

[0053] In another embodiment, a conductive layer 160 is disposed between the first end 1311 and the heating surface 124 of the first component 121, and between the second end 1321 and the cooling surface 123 of the second component 122.
