Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of immunochromatographic cartridge technology, and relates to an immunochromatographic cartridge. Background Technology

[0002] Immunochromatographic cartridges are an application of immunochromatographic technology. They are mainly used for the rapid and convenient detection of specific antigens or antibodies in samples. Depending on the detection target and marker, immunochromatographic cartridges can be divided into various types, such as colloidal gold immunochromatographic kits and fluorescent immunochromatographic kits. These different types of cartridges may vary in terms of sensitivity, accuracy, and ease of operation, and are suitable for different detection scenarios and needs.

[0003] A search revealed an immunochromatographic reagent cartridge case with publication number CN219496396U. Specifically, the case comprises an upper cover and a lower cover that are fastened together. The upper cover has a circular protrusion on its inner side, opposite to the viewing window, with the protrusion at the sample application hole being higher than that at the viewing window. The lower cover has a strip-shaped protrusion forming a cartridge placement area, with a protrusion in the middle of the opposite side of each strip-shaped protrusion. This novel structural combination offers advantages such as higher stability in cartridge fixation and improved chromatography speed.

[0004] Existing immunochromatographic cartridges, due to their large sample application area, cannot concentrate the sample during dripping, making it easy for it to drip outside the cartridge. This requires operators to more precisely control the amount and position of the sample, increasing the difficulty and inconvenience of operation. Furthermore, the immunochromatographic cartridges in the aforementioned comparative case also lack the ability to concentrate sample application and stabilize the test strip. Over long-term use, the unstable position of the test strip within the cartridge can easily lead to movement or deformation during testing, thus affecting the accuracy of the test results.

[0024] The following detailed description, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, provides a further detailed explanation of the immunochromatographic cartridge proposed in this utility model. The advantages and features of this utility model will become clearer from the following description. It should be noted that the drawings are all in a very simplified form and use non-precise proportions, and are only used to facilitate and clarify the illustration of the embodiments of this utility model. The same or similar reference numerals in the drawings represent the same or similar parts.

[0025] This utility model provides, for example Figure 1-5 An immunochromatographic cartridge shown includes an immunochromatographic cartridge body 1, which is a main body for holding test strips;

[0026] The mounting buckle 2 is set on the outside of the immunochromatographic cartridge 1 for internal mounting tab 3. The upper end of the mounting tab 3 is fixedly mounted with the immunochromatographic cartridge cover 4. The upper part of the immunochromatographic cartridge cover 4 is provided with a sample loading area 7. The outer part of the sample loading area 7 is provided with an annular groove 8. The annular groove 8 is rotatably connected to an annular slider 9. The upper part of the annular slider 9 is fixedly mounted with a centralized sample loading leak 10. The outer part of the centralized sample loading leak 10 is fixedly mounted with a push block 11.

[0027] The first clamping frame 12 is located inside the immunochromatographic cartridge cover 4 and is used to clamp the test strip when the cover is closed. A second clamping frame 13 is fixedly installed on the right side of the first clamping frame 12. A test strip cavity 16 is fixedly installed inside the immunochromatographic cartridge body 1. A support groove 17 is opened inside the test strip cavity 16. An immunochromatographic test strip 18 is placed above the support groove 17. A stiffening rib 19 is fixedly installed on the outside of the test strip cavity 16. The immunochromatographic test strip 18 is first taken out and placed in the support groove 17 of the test strip cavity 16 of the immunochromatographic cartridge body 1. In this way, when the immunochromatographic cartridge cover 4 is closed, the first clamping frame 12 and the second clamping frame 13 at both ends firmly clamp the immunochromatographic test strip 18 from above, ensuring that the test strip is in a stable position in the cartridge and preventing the test strip from moving or deforming during the test, thereby affecting the test results.

[0028] The mounting clip 2, which is externally fixed to the immunochromatographic cartridge body 1, engages with the mounting tongue 3, which is externally fixed to the immunochromatographic cartridge cover 4. The quick operation of the mounting clip 2 and mounting tongue 3 allows for rapid opening of the immunochromatographic cartridge body 1 and the immunochromatographic cartridge cover 4, eliminating the need for complicated steps or tools and improving ease of use. A handheld area 5 is located on the top of the immunochromatographic cartridge cover 4, and an observation window 6 is located on the right side of the handheld area 5. The anti-slip texture of the handheld area 5 helps the operator maintain stability when holding the immunochromatographic cartridge. The centralized sample dispensing leak 10 is slidably connected to the sample dispensing area 7. The internal dimensions of the annular groove 8 match the external dimensions of the annular slider 9. During sample dispensing, the centralized sample dispensing leak 10 in the sample dispensing area 7 causes the sample to flow towards the center of the test strip as it drips. Furthermore, manual rotation of the centralized sample dispensing leak 10 can further concentrate the dripping sample, reducing sample waste and uneven dispensing, thereby improving the accuracy of sample dispensing.

[0029] An immunochromatographic cartridge 1 has a positioning sleeve 14 fixedly installed inside, and a positioning post 15 is embedded inside the positioning sleeve 14. An immunochromatographic cartridge cover 4 is fixedly connected above the positioning post 15. The immunochromatographic cartridge cover 4 is movably connected to the immunochromatographic cartridge 1. The positioning sleeves 14 are evenly distributed on the immunochromatographic cartridge 1. When the immunochromatographic cartridge is used, the positioning sleeves 14 and positioning posts 15 are inside the immunochromatographic cartridge 1, which can prevent misalignment when closing the cover. Multiple stiffening ribs 19 are provided. The multiple stiffening ribs 19 are evenly distributed on both sides of the test strip cavity 16. The stiffening ribs 19 are located on both sides of the test strip cavity 16 and together with the test strip cavity 16, they enhance the stability of the immunochromatographic cartridge 1.

[0030] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: First, take out the immunochromatographic cartridge and place the immunochromatographic test strip 18 into the support groove 17 of the test strip cavity 16 of the immunochromatographic cartridge body 1. When the immunochromatographic cartridge lid 4 is closed, the first clamping bracket 12 and the second clamping bracket 13 at both ends firmly press the immunochromatographic test strip 18 from above, ensuring the stability of the test strip in the cartridge and preventing movement or deformation of the test strip during the testing process, which would affect the test results. Then, when closing the lid, the positioning sleeve 14 and the positioning post 15 are inside the immunochromatographic cartridge body 1. Align the positioning post 15 with the positioning sleeve 14, and engage the mounting tab 3 and the mounting buckle 2 to complete the closing. This not only prevents misalignment during closing but also allows for quick operation of the mounting buckle 2 and mounting tab 3, enabling rapid opening of the immunochromatographic cartridge body 1 and the immunochromatographic cartridge lid 4. Users can complete the operation without complicated steps or tools, improving ease of use. Subsequently, the operator... The sample can be added by holding the immunochromatographic cartridge through the handheld area 5. After the sample drips, the concentrated sample dripping leak 10 in the sample application area 7 will cause the sample to flow towards the center of the test strip. Then, the concentrated sample dripping leak 10 can be rotated by manually pushing the pusher block 11 through the annular groove 8 and the annular slider 9. This concentrated sample dripping leak 10 makes the sample dripping more concentrated, reducing sample waste and uneven dripping, thereby improving the accuracy of sample application. This gives the immunochromatographic cartridge the ability to concentrate sample application and stabilize the test strip. With long-term use, it reduces the user's worries and anxieties during the testing process and improves the overall user experience. Then, the operator can view the test strip test results through the observation window 6 to complete the use of the immunochromatographic cartridge. Finally, after completing all the installation and use of the immunochromatographic cartridge according to the above operations, routine maintenance of the device is required. This completes the use of the immunochromatographic cartridge.
