[0064] This utility model relates to a urine analyzer 100, such as... Figure 1-4 As shown, the urine analyzer 100 includes a housing 1, a collector 4, a reagent kit 2 located within the housing 1, a rotary valve, a pump, and a detection mechanism. The rotary valve includes a microfluidic chip, a rotor 6, and a drive component 93. The reagent kit 2 holds various reagents. The collector 4 has a collection chamber including a sample collection chamber 411 and a water collection chamber 412. The sample collection chamber 411 is used to collect samples, while the water collection chamber 412 is used to store water. A flow channel plate 3 provides multiple channels for the convergence of reagents and samples. Figure 5 In this device, the detection mechanism includes a detector and a detection plate 5. The detection plate 5 has a detection chamber for receiving samples and reagents from the flow channel plate 3, and for detecting the samples within the detection chamber. A rotor 6 cooperates with the flow channel plate 3 to facilitate the collection of samples and reagents and to push them into the detection mechanism for testing. Figures 22-24 The drive unit 93 is connected to the rotor 6 and is used to drive the rotor 6 to rotate.

[0065] Specifically, such as Figure 1 As shown, the outer casing 1 includes a first casing 11 and a second casing 12. The rear side of the first casing 11 and the front side of the second casing 12 are detachably connected. The "front side" or "front end" of the urine analyzer 100 is the side of the first casing 11 away from the second casing 12, and the "rear side" or "rear end" is the side of the second casing 12 away from the first casing 11.

The drive unit 93 and rotor 6 are detachably connected. The drive unit 93 and pump inside the second casing 12 are durable components with a long service life. The first casing 11 and the reagent kit 2, rotor 6, and flow channel plate 3 inside the first casing 11 combine to form a detection device. This detection device is a consumable item. After a period of use, when the reagents in the reagent kit 2 are exhausted, the detection device can be replaced, ensuring that resources are used efficiently and reducing waste.

[0066] In a specific embodiment, such as Figure 4-5As shown, the first housing 11 includes a first front cover 111 and a first rear cover 112. The first front cover 111 and the first rear cover 112 are snapped together or fixedly connected by bolts to form an accommodating space. As shown, the first front cover 111 includes a first front connecting ring 1111 and a first front cover plate 1112 connected to the front end of the first front connecting ring 1111. The first rear cover 112 includes a first rear connecting ring 1121 and a first rear cover plate 1122 connected to the rear end of the first rear connecting ring 1121. The rear end of the first front connecting ring 1111 and the front end of the first rear connecting ring 1121 are opposite to each other and snapped together, and are also fixedly connected by bolts. The specific connection method is not limited.

[0067] like Figure 4 As shown, the second housing 12 includes a second front cover 121 and a second rear cover 122, which are fixedly connected and form another receiving space for accommodating the pump and drive unit 93.

[0068] The front end of the second front cover 121 is provided with a recessed mounting groove 1211, such as Figure 2 As shown, the mounting slot 1211 is used to receive the first rear cover 112.

[0069] In addition, such as Figure 8 As shown, the urine analyzer 100 also includes two locking members 13. The two locking members 13 are respectively connected to the first rear connecting ring 1121 and are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the first rear connecting ring 1121. The two locking members 13 can detachably connect the first rear cover 112 to the second front cover 121 of the second housing 12.

[0070] Specifically, such as Figure 6-9 As shown, the side wall of the mounting groove 1211 of the second front cover 121 is provided with two spaced locking grooves 1212. The two locking members 13 respectively include a locking tongue 131, a rotating member 132, and a handle 133. The rotating member 132 is rotatably connected to the first rear cover plate 1122 of the first rear cover 112 via a rotating shaft. The locking tongue 131 is connected to the rear end of the rotating member 132, and the handle 133 is also connected to the front end of the rotating member 132.

[0071] like Figure 7 As shown, the first front connecting ring 1111 has a handle clearance hole 1113. The handle 133 is plate-shaped, with its inner end connected to the front end of the rotating member 132, and its outer end extending to the outside of the first front connecting ring 1111 through the handle clearance hole 1113. Figure 2 , Figure 6 As shown, the first rear connecting ring 1121 is provided with a locking tongue relief hole 1123. The inner end of the locking tongue 131 is connected to the rotating part, and the outer end extends through the locking tongue relief hole 1123 into the locking groove 1212 and engages with the locking groove 1212.

[0072] like Figure 2 , Figure 6 As shown, when the first housing 11 needs to be disassembled, the handle 133 is pressed inward into the first housing 11, causing the rotating part 132 to rotate, which can move the locking tongue 131 out of the locking groove 1212. During installation, the handle 133 is rotated in the opposite direction to lock the locking tongue 131 into the locking groove 1212.

[0073] In addition, two limiting members 1124 are also provided on the first rear connecting ring 1121, such as... Figure 7 As shown, the two limiting members 1124 are located at both ends of the handle clearance hole 1113, and the inner end of the handle 133 is also provided with two protrusions 134. The two protrusions 134 are located inside the first rear connecting ring 1121 and are blocked by the two limiting members 1124 to prevent the handle 133 from disengaging from the first rear connecting ring 1121.

[0074] In other embodiments, an elastic element may be provided between the inner wall of the rotating member 132 and the first rear connecting ring 1121. This elastic element can pull the locking tongue 131 of the rotating member 132 toward the locking groove 1212 to prevent the locking tongue 131 from automatically disengaging from the locking groove 1212. Of course, in other embodiments, the locking tongue 131 and the locking groove 1212 are interference-fitted, which can also lock the locking tongue 131.

[0075] It should be understood that in other embodiments, the first housing 11 and the second housing 12 can also be snapped together, magnetically connected, or bolted together. This utility model does not limit the specific connection method of the first housing 11 and the second housing 12.

[0076] The reagent kit 2 is installed in the first housing 11 and has multiple reagent chambers 21, which are used to hold reagents. For example... Figure 10-11 As shown, the reagent kit 2 is a flat plate with multiple reagent chambers 21 and multiple flow channel holes 22. The multiple reagent chambers 21 extend vertically and are arranged along a first direction, which is the width direction of the urine analyzer 100. The reagent kit 2 is plate-shaped and stacked together with the flow channel plate 3. The outer periphery of the reagent kit 2 is basically in contact with the inner wall of the first shell 11. The multiple reagent chambers 21 basically fill the entire reagent kit 2, which can hold a large amount of reagents without taking up too much space.

[0077] like Figure 6 , Figure 10 As shown, the first front connecting ring 1111 and the first rear connecting ring 1121 of the first housing 11 are both annular, that is, the inner sidewall of the first housing 11 is arc-shaped, the bottom of the reagent kit 2 is also arc-shaped, and the bottom of the multiple reagent chambers 21 are arranged around a horizontal axis, basically on the same circumference. The bottom of the multiple reagent chambers 21 is close to the bottom of the reagent kit 2 to increase the utilization rate of the reagent chambers 21.

[0078] like Figure 10 As shown, the bottom wall of the reagent chamber 21 includes an inclined surface 23 and a vertical surface 24. The vertical surface 24 extends in the vertical direction, while the inclined surface 23 is an inclined surface that gradually decreases from back to front. The bottom end of the inclined surface 23 is connected to the top surface of the vertical surface 24.

[0079] The reagent chamber 21 has openings at the top and front, allowing reagents to be inserted from the top. A seal can be placed at the top of the reagent chamber 21, or an oil seal can be used. A sealing plate (not shown) is also installed at the front of the reagent kit 2, which is stacked on the front side of the kit 2 to seal the reagent chamber 21. Alternatively, if manufacturing is convenient, the sealing plate can be omitted, and the front of the sealed chamber can be designed as a sealed opening.

[0080] like Figure 10 and Figure 11 As shown, multiple flow channel holes 22 are also arranged at intervals around the horizontal axis and are recessed from the rear side of the reagent kit 2 toward the front end. The multiple flow channel holes 22 are recessed to the vertical surface 24 and communicate with multiple reagent chambers 21. The inclined surface 23 is designed to facilitate the slow flow of reagents into the bottom end and into the flow channel plate 3 from the flow channel holes 22.

[0081] like Figure 10 and Figure 11 As shown, the rear side of the reagent kit 2 is also provided with multiple sealing grooves 25. The multiple sealing grooves 25 are formed by the recesses on the rear side of the reagent kit 2, and the multiple flow channel holes 22 are formed by the recesses of the multiple sealing grooves 25 away from the inner wall of the second shell 12 to the vertical surface 24. The sealing grooves 25 can also be set in a conical shape, that is, the sealing grooves 25 gradually decrease from back to front, and the external opening is relatively large.

[0082] like Figure 7 , Figure 12 As shown, the microfluidic chip includes a flow channel plate 3 and a capping plate 7 stacked on the front side of the flow channel plate 3. The capping plate 7 is located on the rear side of the reagent kit 2 and is a thin plate stacked on the rear side of the reagent kit 2 and the front side of the flow channel plate 3. The front side of the capping plate 7 has multiple tapered insertion posts 71, which are located in multiple sealing grooves 25. Multiple sealing rings are fitted around the multiple insertion posts 71, so that the multiple insertion posts 71 and the multiple sealing grooves 25 are sealed together.

[0083] like Figure 7 , Figure 12 As shown, the rear side of the cover plate 7 is also provided with multiple through holes 72. The multiple through holes 72 extend to the front end of multiple plugs and are respectively connected to multiple flow channel holes 22. The reagent in the reagent chamber 21 can flow into the flow channel plate 3 through the flow channel holes 22 and the through holes 72 of the plug 71.

[0084] The sealing plate 7 and the reagent kit 2 are snapped together or bonded together, or connected by thermoplastic means. This utility model does not limit the specific connection method of the sealing plate 7 and the reagent kit 2.

[0085] exist Figure 11-13 In the illustrated embodiment, the bottom end of the reagent kit 2 is provided with a slot 26, and the bottom end of the sealing plate 7 is provided with a protruding buckle 73, which can be snapped into the slot 26 of the reagent kit 2, thereby enabling the reagent kit 2 and the sealing plate 7 to be quickly assembled.

[0086] The flow channel plate 3 is stacked on the rear side of the sealing plate 7. The flow channel plate 3, the sealing plate 7, and the reagent kit 2 are fixedly connected to the first front cover plate 1112 or the first rear cover plate 1122 of the first housing 11 by the same bolt. Figure 4 and Figure 7 In the illustrated embodiment, the inner walls of the first front cover plate 1112 and the first rear cover plate 1122 of the first housing 11 are respectively provided with two mounting posts 14, and the mounting posts 14 of the first front cover plate 1112 and the first rear cover plate 1122 abut against each other and are both provided with threaded holes. The threaded holes of the mounting posts 14 of the first rear cover plate 1122 extend to the rear side of the first rear cover plate 1122, so that bolts can be screwed into the threaded holes of the mounting posts 14 of the first front cover plate 1112 from the rear side of the first rear cover plate 1122, thereby fixing the first rear cover plate 1122 and the first front cover plate 1112.

[0087] In addition, such as Figure 7 As shown, the reagent kit 2 has a countersunk hole 27, and the first rear cover plate 1122 also has an additional mounting post 14. The threaded hole of the mounting post 14 is opposite to the countersunk hole 27, and the inner end of the mounting post 14 is also provided with a flange. A portion of the flange can abut against the rear side of the flow channel plate 3. By screwing the bolt into the countersunk hole 27 from the rear side of the first rear cover plate 1122, the reagent kit 2, the capping plate 7, and the flow channel plate 3 can be fixed together on the first rear cover plate 1122, so that the reagent kit 2, the capping plate 7, and the flow channel plate 3 fit tightly together.

[0088] The front side of the flow channel plate 3 is provided with a central hole 31, multiple circumferential holes 32, a common flow channel 33, a sample flow channel, a clear water flow channel, an air flow channel 36, multiple reagent flow channels 37, and a detection flow channel 38, such as... Figure 14-16 As shown, the central hole 31 is located on the aforementioned horizontal axis, and the central hole 31 is a through hole 72 that passes through the front and rear of the flow channel plate 3. The multiple circumferential holes 32 are located on the circumference centered on the central hole 31 and are arranged at intervals, that is, the multiple circumferential holes 32 are on the same circumference.

[0089] The inner ends of the sample channel, the water channel, the air channel 36, the detection channel 38, and the reagent channels 37 extend to and communicate with the multiple circumferential holes 32, respectively. The outer ends of the sample channel, the water channel, the air channel 36, the detection channel 38, and the reagent channels 37 are dispersed away from the central hole 31 to other positions of the channel plate 3. The outer end of the detection channel 38 is connected to the detection chamber of the detection mechanism, which facilitates the flow of samples and reagents from the detection channel 38 into the detection chamber. The outer ends of the reagent channels 37 extend to another circumference and are aligned and connected with the multiple through holes 72 of the multiple cover plates 7.

[0090] In some embodiments, a clear water channel and a sample channel are respectively provided. The outer end of the clear water channel is connected to the clear water collection chamber 412 of the collection chamber through a pipe, so that water can enter the clear water channel from the clear water collection chamber 412. The sample channel is connected to the sample collection chamber 411 through a pipe, so that the sample can enter the sample channel from the sample collection chamber 411.

[0091] exist Figure 14 and 16 In the illustrated embodiment, two water channels and two sample channels are provided, and the inner ends of the two water channels and the two sample channels are connected to different circumferential holes 32. The usage of the two water channels and the two sample channels will be described in detail below.

[0092] To facilitate communication between the sample flow channel, detection flow channel 38, reagent flow channel 37 and air flow channel 36 and the sample collection chamber 411, detection chamber and reagent chamber 21, a first adapter 301 is also installed on the rear side of the flow channel plate 3. The first adapter 301 can be installed in the first housing 11 or in the second housing 12.

[0093] Specifically, such as Figure 18 and Figure 19 As shown, if the first adapter 301 is installed inside the first housing 11, the first adapter 301 can be snapped onto the rear side of the flow channel plate 3, fixedly connected by bolts, or welded, etc., without limiting the specific connection method between the first adapter 301 and the rear side of the flow channel plate 3.

[0094] The first adapter 301 is used to introduce samples and water into the microfluidic chip, and also to discharge waste liquid from the detection plate into the collector, and then from the collector into the toilet. Moreover, when the reagents are used up, the first adapter 301 and the tubing can be disassembled together, and all components in the new first housing can be directly replaced, reducing contamination and extending the service life of the urine analyzer.

[0095] like Figure 18 , Figure 26 , Figure 27As shown, the first adapter 301 is provided with seven adapter pipes. The seven adapter pipes are used to communicate with the sample collection chamber 411, the clean water collection chamber 412, the drain channel 416 of the detector, or the external air through multiple pipes. The adapter pipes are preferably located at the top of the first adapter 301 to facilitate the flow of samples or water from the sample collection chamber 411 or the clean water collection chamber 412 into the flow channel plate 3, and also to facilitate the flow of liquid in the detection chamber into the drain channel 416 of the collector from the connecting pipe and the pipe.

[0096] like Figure 18 , Figure 26 , Figure 27 As shown, of the seven connecting pipes, two are connected to the sample collection chamber 411 of the collector, and are defined as sample connecting pipes 3011. Two other connecting pipes are connected to the clean water collection chamber 412 of the collector, and are defined as clean water connecting pipes 3012. Another connecting pipe is connected to the air flow channel 36 of the flow channel plate 3, and is defined as air connecting pipe 3013. Another connecting pipe is connected to the sewage discharge channel 416 of the collector, and is defined as sewage discharge connecting pipe 3014. The last connecting pipe is connected to the drive pipe, and is defined as drive connecting pipe 3015.

[0097] like Figure 18 As shown, the front side of the first adapter 301 has seven first slots 3016, and the first adapter 301 has seven channels, which extend in the opposite direction and communicate with the seven adapter tubes. The bottom ends of the seven channels communicate with the multiple first slots 3016.

[0098] like Figure 14 , Figure 17 As shown, the rear side of the flow channel plate 3 is also provided with nine first adapter posts 3017. Each of the nine first adapter posts 3017 has a first adapter hole, which extends into the flow channel plate 3 and communicates with the water channel, detection channel 38, sample channel, or air channel 36 of the flow channel plate 3. Seven of the nine first adapter posts 3017 are inserted into the seven first slots 3016 of the first adapter, and the other two need to be inserted into the inlet and outlet of the detection plate. Among the seven first adapter posts, the first adapter holes of two of the first adapter posts 3017 communicate with the two sample channels of the flow channel plate 3, and the first adapter holes of these two first adapter posts 3017 also communicate with the two sample adapter pipes 3011. The first adapter holes of the other two first adapter posts 3017 communicate with the two water channels and also communicate with the two water adapter pipes 3012.

[0099] like Figure 14 , Figure 17 , Figure 18As shown, the first adapter hole of one of the first adapter posts 3017 is connected to the air flow channel 36 and the air adapter pipe 3013. The first adapter hole of another first adapter post 3017 is connected to the drive pipe and the drive adapter pipe 3015. There are also three first adapter holes of the first adapter posts 3017, one of which is used to connect to the sewage adapter pipe 3014, and the other two are used to connect to the detection chamber respectively. These will be described in detail below.

[0100] In summary, the seven first adapter posts 3017 are respectively inserted into the seven first slots 3016 of the first adapter, thereby connecting the outer end of the sample flow channel of the flow channel plate 3 to the sample adapter pipe 3011, the outer end of the clean water flow channel to the clean water adapter pipe 3012, the outer end of the air flow channel 36 to the air adapter pipe 3013, and the outer end of the detection flow channel 38 to the sewage adapter pipe 3014.

[0101] In another embodiment, the first adapter 301 is installed inside the second housing 12 or in the mounting slot. Since the second housing 12 and the first housing 11 are detachably connected, regardless of whether the first adapter 301 is connected inside or outside the second housing 12, the plurality of first slots 3016 of the first adapter 301 need to be exposed in the mounting slot 1211 of the second housing 12.

[0102] like Figure 17 As shown, the rear side of the flow channel plate 3 is also provided with multiple first adapter posts 3017, and the first rear cover plate 1122 of the first housing 11 also needs to be provided with avoidance holes to avoid multiple first adapter posts 3017, so that the first adapter posts 3017 can be inserted into the first slot 3016 of the first adapter 301 as the first housing 11 and the second housing 12 are assembled.

[0103] like Figure 6 , Figure 17 , Figure 18 As shown, when the first housing 11 and the second housing 12 are assembled, when the locking tongue 131 of the locking member 13 is inserted into the locking groove 1212, it can simultaneously squeeze multiple first adapter pins 3017 into multiple first slots 3016.

[0104] Of course, in order to increase the sealing performance of the first adapter 301 and the flow channel plate 3, a sealing ring fitted around the first adapter post 3017 is also required in the first slot 3016.

[0105] like Figure 18 , Figure 19 As shown, the detection plate 5 can be installed inside the first housing 11 and fixedly connected or snapped to the first adapter 301, or fixedly connected to the rear side of the flow channel plate 3. Of course, in other embodiments, the detection plate 5 can also be disposed inside the second housing 12 and configured to be snapped and detached from the first adapter 301.

[0106] Figure 14 , 19 As shown, if installed inside the first housing 11, the detection plate 5 can be directly fixedly connected to the rear side of the flow channel plate 3. One end of the detection chamber is connected to the detection flow channel 38, and the other end is connected to the sewage transfer pipe 3014 of the first adapter 301. The sewage transfer pipe 3014 is connected to the sewage channel 416 of the collector through a pipe. The liquid in the detection flow channel 38 flows into the detection chamber for detection. After the detection is completed, the liquid in the detection chamber can flow from the sewage transfer pipe 3014 into the sewage channel 416 and be discharged into the toilet from the sewage channel 416.

[0107] Specifically, such as Figure 5 , Figure 19 , Figure 21 As shown, the detection plate 5 is a plate-shaped structure extending along the front and back of the urine analyzer 100. The detection cavity is roughly U-shaped and has an inlet 51 and an outlet 52, which are located at the front end of the detection plate 5. Figure 17 In the middle, the three first transition posts 3017 on the rear side of the flow channel plate 3, two of which are inserted into the inlet 51 and the outlet 52 respectively. The first transition post 3017 inserted into the inlet 51 connects the detection channel 38 of the flow channel plate 3 and the inlet 51. The sample and liquid in the detection channel 38 can flow into the detection chamber from the inlet 51 in sequence for detection. That is to say, one end of the detection chamber is connected to the detection channel, and the other end is connected to the drain pipe.

[0108] like Figure 14 , Figure 17 , Figure 18 As shown, the flow channel plate 3 is also provided with a sewage discharge channel 302. Both ends of the sewage discharge channel 302 are respectively connected to two other first adapter posts 3017 on the rear side of the flow channel plate 3. One of the two first adapter posts 3017 is inserted into the outlet 52 of the detection chamber, and the first adapter hole of the first adapter post 3017 is connected to the outlet 52. The other first adapter post 3017 is inserted into the first slot 3016 at the front end of the first adapter 301 and is connected to the sewage transfer pipe 3014 located at the top of the first adapter 301.

[0109] In other words, the mixture of sample and reagent in the detection channel 38 flows into the detection chamber from the first adapter hole of one of the first adapter posts 3017 and the inlet 51 of the detection chamber. After the detection is completed, the mixture flows into the drain channel 302 of the channel plate 3 from the outlet 52, and then into the drain adapter 3014 from the drain channel 302. From the drain adapter 3014 and the pipe, it flows into the drain channel 416 of the collection chamber, and then into the toilet from the drain channel 416.

[0110] The drain channel 302 functions as a transfer channel, with one end connected to the outlet 52 of the detection chamber and the other end connected to the drain transfer pipe 3014. The mixed liquid in the detection chamber flows through the drain channel 302 and then into the drain channel 416 through the drain transfer pipe 3014. This design reduces the volume of the first adapter 301 and makes full use of the internal space of the channel plate 3 and the first adapter 301.

[0111] If the detection plate 5 is installed inside the first housing 11, it can be removed along with the first housing 11 when the reagents inside the first housing 11 are exhausted. When replacing with a new detection device, a new detection plate 5 is also installed inside it.

[0112] The detector of this invention includes a light source and a photosensitive sensor, which are respectively disposed at corresponding positions on the detection plate 5. The detection plate 5 is made of transparent material. The light source is an LED light source used to illuminate the mixed liquid in the detection chamber, while the photosensitive sensor is used to sense the light emitted by the light source after illuminating the mixed liquid, in order to detect the sample components. However, the detector installation is relatively complex. Therefore, for ease of assembly by the customer, the detector needs to be installed inside the second housing 12, that is, the detector and the detection plate 5 are assembled separately. Since the detector needs to be close to the detection plate 5 to detect the mixed liquid in the detection chamber, the rear end of the detection plate 5 needs to extend into the second housing 12.

[0113] Specifically, such as Figure 20 As shown, the first rear cover plate 1122 of the first housing 11 and the mounting groove 1211 of the second housing 12 need to be provided with clearance holes. These clearance holes are detection plate clearance holes 15. The front end of the detection plate 5 is connected to the flow channel plate 3 and the first adapter 301, and the rear end extends from the two detection plate clearance holes 15 of the first housing 11 and the second housing 12 into the second housing 12. The detector is installed at the top or bottom of the detection plate clearance hole 15 of the second housing 12 and can detect the liquid in the detection chamber.

[0114] In another embodiment, the detection plate 5 can also be directly installed in the second housing 12. The front end of the detection plate 5 extends to the inner wall of the mounting groove 1211. Among the three first adapter posts 3017 at the rear end of the flow channel plate 3, the first adapter holes of two of the first adapter posts 3017 are respectively connected to both ends of the sewage flow channel 302. The first adapter hole of one of the two first adapter posts 3017 is connected to the sewage adapter pipe 3014, and the other is connected to the outlet 52 of the detection chamber.

[0115] Of the three first adapter posts 3017, the first adapter hole of another first adapter post 3017 is connected to the inlet 51 of the detection cavity.

[0116] The two first adapter posts 3017, which are connected to the inlet 51 and outlet 52 of the detection chamber, need to extend to the rear side of the first rear cover plate 1122 of the first housing 11. When the first housing 11 and the second housing 12 are assembled, the rear ends of the two first adapter posts 301 can be inserted into the two inlets 51 and outlet 52 at the front end of the detection plate 5, which can also achieve quick disassembly and assembly.

[0117] It should be understood that multiple adapter pipes and multiple first adapter posts 3017, or the first adapter post and the outlet 52 and the inlet 51, all require sealed connections. The sealing method can be a sealing ring or other methods.

[0118] The common flow channel 33 is a curved flow channel, with its inner end extending to the central hole 31 and communicating with the central hole 31. Its outer end circles the central hole 31 once within the circle formed by multiple circumferential holes 32 and then bends and extends to the outside of the flow channel plate 3. The common flow channel 33 and the multiple circumferential holes 32 are staggered and are not directly connected to each other.

[0119] In one embodiment, the outer end of the common flow channel 33 is used to communicate with a drive pipe, which is located inside the second housing and connected to a pump that can extract air from the drive pipe and the common flow channel 33. Of course, in some embodiments, two pumps can be connected in series via pipes, with one pump connected to the drive pipe.

[0120] exist Figure 14 In the embodiment shown, the middle part of the common flow channel 33 has at least one bend, which increases the volume of the common flow channel 33 on the one hand, and helps to prevent reagents or samples in the common flow channel 33 from flowing back into the drive pipe on the other hand.

[0121] The common flow channel 33 needs to be connected to the drive pipe, and the pump is connected to the drive pipe. After the pump starts, it can vent the air in the common flow channel 33 and form a negative pressure.

[0122] The pump and drive pipe are located inside the second housing 12. Therefore, in order to allow for quick disassembly and reassembly of the drive pipe and the common flow channel 33, a second adapter 306 needs to be installed. The second adapter 306 will be described below.

[0123] As a preferred embodiment, to achieve more accurate quantitative extraction of reagents and samples, two pumps can be used, each connected to a common flow channel via two separate drive pipes: a peristaltic pump 91 and a plunger pump 92. The two pumps are respectively installed within the second housing 12 and connected to the two drive pipes. These two drive pipes are defined as the first drive pipe and the second drive pipe, respectively.

[0124] The second drive pipe is connected to the plunger pump, and the first drive pipe is connected to the peristaltic pump 91. The first drive pipe includes two sections, the two ends of which are respectively connected to the two ends of the hose of the peristaltic pump, and the other two sections are respectively connected to the two peristaltic pump adapters 3041 described below.

[0125] The front side of the flow channel plate 3 also has a drive flow channel 303, which extends vertically and its top end is connected to a first adapter hole of one of the first adapter posts 3017, which is connected to the drive adapter pipe 3015.

[0126] The rear side of the flow channel plate 3 is also provided with three second adapter posts, each of which is provided with a second adapter hole. Among the three second adapter posts, two are peristaltic pump adapter posts 3041 and the other is plunger pump adapter post 3042.

[0127] like Figure 14 , Figure 17 As shown, the second adapter hole of one of the two peristaltic pump adapter pins 3041 is connected to the bottom end of the drive flow channel 303, and the second adapter hole of the other peristaltic pump adapter pin 3041 is connected to the common flow channel 33.

[0128] The plunger pump adapter 3042 is located between the two peristaltic pump adapters 3041, and its second adapter hole is also connected to the common flow channel 33.

[0129] Figure 17 , Figure 18 As shown, the second adapter 306 is connected to the inner wall of the mounting groove 1211 of the second housing 12, and is provided with three second slots 3061. Among the three second slots 3061, two of the second slots 3061 respectively accommodate two peristaltic pump adapter columns 3041. That is, the common flow channel 33 is connected to one end of a section of the first drive pipe through one peristaltic pump adapter column 3041, and one end of the other section of the first drive pipe is connected to the bottom end of the drive flow channel 303 through another peristaltic pump adapter column 3041. The top end of the drive flow channel 303 is connected to the drive adapter pipe 3015 through the first connecting column. The drive adapter pipe 3015 can also be connected to the collector. In other words, one end of each section of the first drive pipe is connected to both ends of the peristaltic pump hose, and the other end is connected to the common flow channel and the drive adapter pipe 3015 respectively. After the peristaltic pump is started, it can draw the fluid in the common flow channel from the first drive pipe and the drive adapter pipe to the collector, and then discharge it from the collector into the toilet.

[0130] Of the three second slots 3061, another second slot 3061 is connected to one end of the second drive pipe, and this second slot 3061 accommodates the plunger pump adapter 3042.

[0131] The peristaltic pump 91 is used to drive the air out of the common flow channel 33, or to drive the sample and water in the sample collection chamber into the sample flow channel and the clean water flow channel. That is to say, a large air flow is required. Therefore, a drive flow channel 303 is provided on the flow channel plate 3, and a drive adapter pipe 3015 is provided on the first adapter 301. If the design is bent, a large air flow can be provided. The plunger pump 92 only needs to quantitatively extract the sample and reagent from the sample flow channel and the reagent flow channel 37 into the common flow channel. The required flow is smaller. Therefore, one end of the second drive pipe is connected to the common flow channel 33, and the other end is located near the plunger pump 92.

[0132] like Figure 5 As shown, the detection channel 38 is connected to the detection chamber, and a mixing chamber 39 is also provided along the path of the detection channel 38. The mixing chamber 39 is connected to the detection channel 38, and the width of the mixing chamber 39 is larger than the diameter of the detection channel 38. When the sample and reagent flow in the detection channel 38, they pass through the mixing chamber 39. Due to the larger width of the mixing chamber 39, the sample and reagent will be accelerated when flowing from the detection channel 38 into the mixing chamber 39, and thus be mixed within the mixing chamber 39.

[0133] As a preferred embodiment, the mixing cavity 39 includes a mixing bend 392 and at least one mixing chamber 391 that are connected to each other. The mixing bend 392 is an S-shaped bend, and the mixing chamber 391 and the mixing bend 392 are connected. The width of the mixing cavity 39 is greater than the diameter of the mixing bend 392 and the detection channel 38.

[0134] exist Figure 14-16 In the illustrated embodiment, the mixing chamber 39 includes three mixing bends 392 and three mixing chambers 391. The three mixing chambers 391 and the three mixing bends 392 are arranged alternately and are interconnected. The inlet of the mixing chamber 39 is at the bottom and the outlet is at the top. That is, the three mixing bends 392 and the mixing chamber 39 extend upward in a curved manner.

[0135] The mixing bend 392 includes at least two horizontal flow channels and at least one turning flow channel 394, with any one of the turning flow channels 394 located at both ends of the two horizontal flow channels;

[0136] The mixing bend 392 is an S-shaped bend and includes at least two horizontal flow channels and at least one turning flow channel 394. The horizontal flow channels are flow channels that extend in the horizontal direction, while the turning flow channel 394 is located between any two horizontal flow channels, that is, at the corner of the mixing bend 392.

[0137] like Figure 16 As shown, the turning channel 394 includes a curved inner arc 395 and an outer arc 396. Both the inner arc 395 and the outer arc 396 are arc-shaped, and the inner diameter of the inner arc 395 is smaller than the inner diameter of the outer arc 396.

[0138] The mixing chamber 39 of this invention is designed with an S-shaped mixing bend 392 and a mixing chamber 39 in combination. The outer diameter of the mixing bend 392 is enlarged at the turning point. By utilizing the bend with a change in diameter, the flow velocity at the outer arc 396 is greater than that at the inner arc 395, forming a local Dean flow effect, which improves the mixing effect of the sample and reagent liquid in the flow channel.

[0139] like Figure 15 As shown, the mixing chamber 391 has a roughly circular cross-section along the vertical direction, and the two side walls of the mixing chamber 391 are also arc surfaces. The two arc surfaces are a first arc surface 397 and a second arc surface 398 opposite to the first arc surface 397. Both the first arc surface 397 and the second arc surface 398 are arc surfaces that protrude outward.

[0140] As a preferred option, such as Figure 15 As shown, the first arc surface 397 and the second arc surface 398 are circular arc surfaces with the same diameter and the same arc length, and the tangents at both ends of the first arc surface 397 and the second arc surface 398 are parallel to each other. In the embodiment shown in the figure, the arc length of the first arc surface 397 is equal to 1 / 4 of the circumference, and the tangents at both ends are perpendicular to each other, with one tangent extending in the vertical direction and the other extending in the horizontal direction.

[0141] Because the entire mixing chamber 39 bends and extends in the vertical direction, such as Figure 16 As shown, each mixing chamber 391 is located between two mixing bends 392. Each mixing chamber 39 needs to be connected to the horizontal flow channels of the two mixing bends 392. The two horizontal flow channels are respectively arranged in a mirror symmetric manner, one of which is located at the top of the mixing chamber 391 and the other is located at the bottom of the mixing chamber 391.

[0142] Of the two horizontal channels connected to the mixing chamber 391, one is defined as the inlet horizontal channel 3931, and the other as the outlet horizontal channel 3932. The inlet horizontal channel 3931 is connected to the top of the mixing chamber 391, while the outlet horizontal channel 3932 is connected to the bottom of the mixing chamber 391. Samples or reagents flow into the mixing chamber 391 from the inlet horizontal channel 3931 and then out from the outlet horizontal channel 3932. That is, the inlet horizontal channel 3931 is located upstream of the outlet horizontal channel 3932. Samples and reagents flow into the detection channel 38 from the common channel 33, and after passing through, for example, the mixing chamber 39, enter the mixing chamber 391 through the inlet horizontal channel 3931 of a mixing bend 392, and then flow into the horizontal channel of the other mixing bend 392.

[0143] like Figure 15As shown, the mixing chamber 391 has an inlet 3911 and an outlet 3912. The inlet 3911 is connected to the inlet horizontal flow channel of one of the mixing bends, and the outlet 3912 is connected to the outlet horizontal flow channel 3932 of another mixing bend. Samples and reagents can flow into the mixing chamber from the inlet horizontal flow channel of one of the mixing bends and the inlet 3911, and then flow into another mixing bend from the outlet 3912 and the outlet horizontal flow channel, continuously flowing within several mixing chambers and several mixing bends.

[0144] Using the line connecting the inlet horizontal flow channel 3931 and the outlet horizontal flow channel 3932 as the dividing line, as follows: Figure 15 The dotted line shown is a dividing line. This dividing line divides the mixing chamber 391 into two parts. The area formed by the dividing line and the first arc surface 397 below is the slow zone 3934, and the area between the dividing line and the second arc surface 398 is the fast zone 3933. The flow from the horizontal inlet channel 3931 into the mixing chamber 391 in the fast zone 3933 and the slow zone 3934 has a certain speed difference. The mixed liquid of sample and reagent forms a vortex around the center point in the circular mixing chamber 391, which increases the contact area between the liquids and improves the mixing effect.

[0145] As the horizontal flow channel 3932 narrows, the velocity of the sample and reagent mixture increases sharply when it flows out of the horizontal flow channel 3932. The sample and reagent mixture is relatively compressed, further increasing the mixing intensity. Through the series connection of the above-mentioned multiple diameter-changing mixing bends 392 with the circular mixing chamber 391, the mixing intensity is gradually increased until the detection chamber, where the sample and reagent are essentially completely mixed.

[0146] The mixing chamber 39 of this invention is commonly used in the fields of microfluidic chip technology, such as biology and chemistry. When samples or reagents or samples and reagents need to be mixed, this structure can greatly improve the mixing efficiency while avoiding some residue and bubble problems.

[0147] Inside the mixing chamber 39, the inlet horizontal flow channel 3931, which is connected to each mixing chamber 391, is set higher than the outlet horizontal flow channel 3932. In special application scenarios, such as when it needs to be used vertically, when the liquid flows from bottom to top, there is no need to consider the influence of gravity, so there will be no residue problem in the mixing chamber 391.

[0148] When samples or reagents flow in relatively rough flow channels, air bubbles are easily generated, which affects the mixing effect and may even be carried into the detection chamber, causing analytical errors. In this application, multiple mixing chambers 39 are connected in series with mixing bends 392. The corners of each mixing bend 392 are treated with smooth rounded transitions, which can avoid and eliminate air bubbles in the mixing chamber 391 to a certain extent.

[0149] The inlet of the mixing chamber 39 is located below the outlet, and the mixing chamber 39 is located above the common flow channel 33. The inlet of the mixing chamber 39 is connected to the common flow channel 33, and the outlet is connected to the detection chamber. The sample and reagent in the common flow channel 33 flow into the mixing chamber 39 from the bottom inlet and then flow into the detection chamber from the outlet.

[0150] like Figure 14 , Figure 22 As shown, the rotor 6 is rotatably mounted inside the first housing 11 and located on the rear side of the flow channel plate 3. The rotor 6 has a transfer channel inside, with its inner end 61 and outer end opening towards the front side of the rotor 6. The transfer channel is roughly U-shaped, with its inner end 61 aligned with the central hole 31. The inner end is recessed from the front side of the rotor 6 into the interior of the rotor 6. The outer end 62 of the transfer channel also opens towards the front side of the rotor 6, and the distance from the outer end 62 to the inner end 61 is the same as the distance between the central hole 31 and the plurality of circumferential holes 32.

[0151] like Figure 14 , Figure 22 As shown, the inner end 61 of the transfer channel is aligned with and connected to the central hole 31, and the outer end 62 rotates with the rotor 6 and can be aligned with and connected to any one of the circumferential holes 32 as the rotor 6 rotates.

[0152] When a sample needs to be extracted, the rotor 6 rotates, aligning the outer end 62 of the transfer channel with the circumferential hole 32 that connects to the inner end of the sample flow channel. At this time, both ends of the transfer channel are connected to the sample flow channel and the common flow channel 33, respectively. The peristaltic pump 91 can extract the air from the common flow channel 33, the transfer channel, the sample flow channel, and the external sample transfer pipe or the pipe connected to the transfer pipe, forming a negative pressure, and drawing the sample in the sample collection chamber 411 to the common flow channel 33.

[0153] When reagents need to be extracted, the same operation is performed: the rotor 6 is rotated so that the outer end 62 of the transfer channel is aligned with the circumferential hole 32 that is connected to the reagent flow channel 37, so that the common flow channel 33 is connected to the reagent channel. The peristaltic pump 91 discharges the air in the common flow channel 33 and the reagent channel, forming a negative pressure, and draws the reagent in the reagent chamber 21 into the common flow channel 33.

[0154] The same procedure applies when it is necessary to extract clean water from the clean water collection chamber 412, and will not be described in detail here.

[0155] After the sample and reagent are drawn into the common flow channel 33, the rotor 6 continues to rotate, so that the outer end 62 of the transfer channel is aligned with the circumferential hole 32 that is connected to the inner end of the detection flow channel 38. The peristaltic pump 91 drives the sample and reagent in the common flow channel 33 to flow from the common flow channel 33 into the detection flow channel 38, and then from the detection flow channel 38 into the detection chamber.

[0156] In the embodiment where the mixing chamber 39 is provided, the peristaltic pump 91 can push the sample and reagent from the detection inlet into the mixing chamber 39, pushing the sample and reagent from the bottom inlet to the top outlet of the mixing chamber 39. To improve the mixing effect, the peristaltic pump 91 can also be used to repeatedly backflow the sample and reagent through the mixing chamber 391 and the mixing bends 392. After passing through the mixing chamber 391 and multiple mixing bends 392, the sample and reagent are repeatedly mixed to form a mixed liquid until the mixing effect is achieved. Finally, the mixed liquid flows into the detection chamber from the inlet 51 of the detection chamber.

[0157] As described above, the flow channel plate 3 is also provided with a sewage discharge channel 302. Both ends of the sewage discharge channel 302 are respectively connected to the first adapter holes of two other first adapter posts 3017 on the rear side of the flow channel plate 3. One of the two first adapter posts 3017 is inserted into the outlet 52 of the detection chamber, and the first adapter hole of this first adapter post 3017 is connected to the outlet hole. The other first adapter post 3017 is inserted into the first slot 3016 at the front end of the first adapter 301 and is connected to the sewage discharge adapter pipe 3014 located at the top of the first adapter 301.

[0158] After the test is completed, the pump drives air into the test channel 38 and the test chamber, and the mixed liquid flows from the outlet 52 of the test chamber into the sewage channel 302, and then from the sewage channel 302 into the sewage transfer pipe 3014. From the sewage transfer pipe 3014 and the pipe, it flows into the sewage channel 416 of the collector, and then into the toilet.

[0159] The rotor 6 is rotatably connected to the rear side of the flow channel plate 3. In a specific embodiment, the rear side of the flow channel plate 3 is also provided with a connector 85. The connector 85 is a ring extending around the outside of multiple circumferential holes 32 and is located on the radial outer side of the rotor 6.

[0160] The rotor 6 is also covered by a protective cover 81, such as Figure 22 and 23 As shown, the protective cover 81 covers the connector 85 and is also snapped into the connector 85, and the rotor 6 rotates on the protective cover 81.

[0161] In addition, such as Figure 22 , Figure 23 As shown, in order to drive the rotor 6 against the rear side of the flow channel plate 3 and prevent liquid from overflowing from the circumferential hole 32, a compression spring 82 is also provided inside the protective cover 81. A convex ring 83 is also provided on the rear side of the rotor 6. The compression spring 82 is sleeved around the convex ring 83, and its front and rear ends abut against the rear side of the rotor 6 and the rear wall of the protective cover 81, thereby ensuring a tight fit between the rotor 6 and the flow channel plate 3. Of course, the compression spring 82 can also be replaced with other biasing components, such as magnets attracting each other on the rotor 6 and the flow channel plate 3.

[0162] The drive unit 93 is located within the second housing 12 and is detachably connected to the rotor 6, such as Figure 24 As shown, the drive component 93 can be a motor, or other drive methods can be selected. The motor shaft extends into the mounting slot 1211 of the second housing 12. After the second housing 12 and the first housing 11 are assembled, the motor shaft and rotor 6 can be automatically assembled.

[0163] Specifically, the first rear cover plate 1122 of the first housing 11 has a clearance hole for the protective cover 81, and the inner wall of the mounting groove 1211 of the second housing 12 also has a clearance hole for the motor shaft. The rear side of the protective cover 81 is located within the clearance hole of the first rear cover plate 1122 and also has a through hole, while the shaft of the drive component 93 extends from the clearance hole in the inner wall of the mounting groove 1211 into the protective cover 81. Furthermore, the rear side of the convex ring 83 has a recessed spline groove 84, such as... Figure 23 and 24 As shown, the front end of the motor shaft is provided with a spline 931 located in the spline groove 84. When the first housing 11 and the second housing 12 are assembled, the spline 931 of the shaft is inserted into the spline groove 84 to complete the assembly.

[0164] The collector is located outside the first housing 11 and the second housing 12, and is connected to the adapter pipe of the first adapter 301 through multiple pipes.

[0165] exist Figure 25-27 In the illustrated embodiment, the collector includes a collection plate 41, an outer cover plate 43, an inner cover plate 42, and a clean water collection component. The collection plate 41 is disc-shaped and has an outer side and an inner side. The outer side is the side away from the toilet, while the inner side is the side closer to the toilet. A sample collection chamber 411 is provided on the outer side of the collection plate 41, and a clean water collection chamber 412 is provided on the rear side.

[0166] The sample collection chamber 411 is located at the top of the collection plate 41 and its width gradually increases from the bottom to the top, opening towards the top of the collection plate 41 for collecting samples. The water collection chamber 412 is located at the bottom of the collection plate 41 and is offset from the sample collection chamber 411.

[0167] The top of the collection plate 41 is also provided with a water inlet channel 413, a water outlet channel 414, and a sample outlet channel 415. The water inlet channel 413 and the water outlet channel 414 are respectively connected to the clean water collection chamber 412. The water inlet channel 413 and the water outlet channel 414 are both located on the rear side of the collection plate 41 and are recessed from the top of the collection plate 41 into the clean water collection chamber 412.

[0168] The sample collection cavity 411 is located on the front side of the collection plate 41, and is formed by the recess in the front side of the collection plate 41. The sample collection cavity 411 is formed by connecting and assembling the collection plate 41 and the outer cover plate 43. The top of the front cover plate is provided with a filter part 44, which is a grid spaced at the top of the front cover plate. A filter screen or other filter can also be added to filter foreign objects.

[0169] The inner walls on both sides of the sample collection cavity 411 are curved surfaces that protrude towards each other, causing the width of the sample collection cavity 411 to gradually increase from the bottom to the top. In addition, the curved inner walls can increase the opening of the sample collection cavity 411 and facilitate the flow of the sample from the top to the bottom.

[0170] The inner wall of the sample collection cavity 411 is also provided with two recessed drainage grooves 4111. The two drainage grooves 4111 are formed by recesses from the top of the collection plate 41 downwards and are spaced apart. A baffle post 402 is formed between the two drainage grooves 4111. The baffle post 402 is basically located in the middle of the sample collection cavity 4111, and the two drainage grooves 4111 are also basically the same in shape. The bottom wall of the two drainage grooves 4111 is also a downward-facing concave arc surface.

[0171] The drainage channel 4111 facilitates the reception of more samples and also facilitates the flow of samples along the inner wall of the drainage channel 4111. It provides a larger flow channel arc surface, which facilitates the slow flow of samples into the bottom of the sample collection cavity 411 and reduces the generation of air bubbles.

[0172] It should be understood that if the sample collection cavity 411 has sufficient space, multiple drainage channels 4111 can be provided. The multiple drainage channels 4111 can be arranged at intervals along the width direction of the collector. The inner wall and bottom wall of the multiple drainage channels 4111 are preferably smooth arc surfaces for sampling.

[0173] The bottom of the sample collection chamber 411 is also provided with a drain port 417. The drain port 417 is open towards the bottom of the collection chamber and has a very small diameter. During the sample collection process, the drain port 417 is always open. Because of its small diameter, it will not affect the sample collection.

[0174] The sample collection chamber 411 is also equipped with a liquid level sensor, which is located below and adjacent to the two drainage channels 4111, and is used to sense the liquid level of the sample collection.

[0175] Furthermore, the sample outlet channel 415 is formed by a recess on the rear side of the collection plate 41, with its bottom end extending into the sample collection chamber 411 and located above the drain outlet 417. Its top end is located at the top of the collection plate 41, and the top end of the sample outlet channel 415 is connected to the sample transfer tube 3011 via a pipe. Samples within the sample collection chamber 411 can flow into the sample flow channel from the sample outlet channel 415 and the sample transfer tube 3011.

[0176] The clean water collection chamber 412 is formed by the recess on the rear side of the collection plate 41. After the inner cover plate 42 is connected to the rear side of the collection plate 41, the inner cover plate 42 covers the clean water collection chamber 412 to form a closed cavity.

[0177] The water collection chamber 412 includes a first chamber 4121 and a second chamber 4122. The first chamber 4121 and the second chamber 4122 are located on both sides of the sample collection chamber 411 and are connected at the bottom. The first chamber 4121 and the second chamber 4122 are symmetrically arranged, and exhaust holes 418 are respectively provided at the top.

[0178] The water inlet channel 413 and the water outlet channel 414 are respectively formed by the recess on the rear side of the collection plate 41, and the bottom end of the sample outlet channel 415 is connected to the bottom end of the sample collection cavity 411.

[0179] The top of the water inlet channel 413 is also connected to an external clean water collection device. This clean water collection device can be a pipe connected to a clean water tank or water switch, or it can be a pipe directly attached to the inner wall of the toilet and located above the collector for collecting clean water. This utility model does not limit the specific implementation of the clean water collection device.

[0180] The diameter of the water outlet channel 414 is much smaller than that of the water inlet channel 413, and the top of the water outlet channel 414 can be connected to the clean water transfer pipe 3012 through a pipe.

[0181] In other words, the water collected by the water collection device flows into the water collection chamber 412 from the water inlet channel 413. The water collection chamber 412 is similar to a water storage tank. The water in the water collection chamber 412 then enters the water flow channel of the flow channel plate 3 through the water outlet channel 414 and the water transfer pipe 3012.

[0182] When water enters the clean water collection chamber 412, air bubbles will be generated and float to the surface. The water outlet channel 414 is located at the bottom of the clean water collection chamber 412 and is relatively narrow, so air bubbles will not enter the water outlet channel 414. After flowing into the clean water transfer pipe 3012 from the water outlet channel 414, no air bubbles will be generated in the clean water flowing into the clean water channel.

[0183] A liquid level sensor is also installed inside the clean water collection chamber 412 to sense the liquid level of the clean water.

[0184] The rear side of the collection plate 41 is also provided with a sewage discharge channel 416, which extends to the top of the collection plate 41 and is connected to the sewage transfer pipe 3014 through a pipe. The sewage transfer pipe 3014 is connected to the detection chamber, and the inner cover plate 42 is also provided with a liquid outlet 421 connected to the sewage discharge channel 416. After the detection is completed, the mixed liquid in the detection chamber can flow into the sewage discharge channel 416 from the sewage discharge channel 302 of the flow channel plate 3 and the sewage transfer pipe 3014 in sequence, and then flow into the toilet from the sewage discharge channel 416 and the liquid outlet 421.

[0185] exist Figures 28-30 In another embodiment, the collector also includes a collection plate 41, an outer cover plate 43, an inner cover plate 42, and a clean water collection component. Similarly, the collection plate 41 is also disc-shaped and is also provided with a clean water collection chamber 412 and a sample collection chamber 411. The top surface of the collection plate 41 is also provided with a water inlet channel 413, a water outlet channel 414, and a sample outlet channel 415.

[0186] The difference is that the sample collection chamber 411 and the water collection chamber 412 are formed by assembling the collection plate 41, the inner cover plate 42 and the outer cover plate 43. The sample collection chamber 411 and the water collection chamber 412 are through slots provided on the collection plate 41. After the front cover plate and the rear cover plate are closed on the front and rear sides of the collection plate 41, the front and rear sides of the sample collection chamber 411 and the water collection chamber 412 are sealed, thus forming the sample collection chamber 411 and the water collection chamber 412.

[0187] The volume of the water collection chamber 412 is larger than that of the sample collection chamber 411. The water collection chamber 412 and the sample collection chamber 411 are respectively located on both sides of the collection plate 41, and an isolation section is provided in the middle.

[0188] The top surface of the acquisition plate 41 is provided with a sample collection groove 401, which is formed by a recess in the top surface of the acquisition plate 41.

[0189] The bottom wall of the sample collection tank 401 is also provided with a sampling channel, which is formed by the indentation of the bottom wall of the sample collection tank 401 into the sample collection cavity 411.

[0190] The sample outlet channel 415 is also formed by the recess of the bottom wall of the sample collection groove 401 into the bottom of the sample collection cavity 411. The sample outlet channel 415 is located on the isolation section, and the top of the sample outlet channel 415 is a vertically extending straight channel, while the middle area is a curved flow channel, and the bottom is a horizontally extending channel that extends to the bottom of the sample collection cavity. This curved design of the sample outlet channel 415 also allows the sample to fit against the inner wall of the sample outlet channel 415, and mixes during the flow process to reduce air bubbles.

[0191] The bottom of the sample collection chamber 411 is also provided with a drain outlet 417, which is open towards the bottom of the collection plate 41, and excess samples can flow into the toilet from the drain channel 302.

[0192] The water inlet channel 413 is also formed by the bottom wall of the sample collection tank 401 recessed into the clean water collection chamber 412, and the water inlet channel 413 is also located on the front side of the collection plate 41. A pipe can be inserted into the top of the water inlet channel 413, and the pipe communicates with the clean water collection device. Similar to the previous embodiment, it will not be described again.

[0193] The water outlet channel 414 is formed by bending upward from the bottom of the clear water collection chamber 412 to the bottom wall of the sample collection tank 401. The water outlet channel 414 is formed by the recess of the rear side of the collection plate 41 and is also located on the isolation part. The water outlet channel 414 also has a bent shape. In the process of collecting clear water, it can also reduce the number of air bubbles in the clear water entering the clear water channel of the flow channel plate 3.

[0194] The rear side of the isolation section is also provided with a sewage discharge channel 416. The top of the sewage discharge channel 416 extends to the bottom wall of the sample collection tank 401 and is connected to the sewage transfer pipe 3014 through a pipe. The bottom end of the sewage discharge channel 416 is connected to the liquid outlet 421 of the inner cover plate 42. The inner cover plate 42 covers the rear side of the collection plate 41 and is used to adhere to the inner wall of the toilet. The liquid in the detection chamber can flow into the sewage discharge channel 416 sequentially from the sewage discharge channel 302 and the sewage transfer pipe 3014, and then flow into the toilet from the liquid outlet 421.

[0195] The collector also includes two liquid level sensors, which are installed in the clean water collection chamber 412 and the sample collection chamber 411 respectively, to sense the liquid level of the clean water and the sample.

[0196] One sample flow channel can be provided on the flow channel plate 3, which can be directly connected to the sample collection cavity 411 through the sample adapter 3011. In another embodiment, two sample flow channels can also be provided on the flow channel plate 3, with the inner ends of the two sample flow channels respectively connected to two circumferential holes 32, and the outer ends respectively connected to two pipes through two sample adapters 3011.

[0197] Two sample channels are defined as the upper sample channel 341 and the lower sample channel 342, and the pipes connected to the two sample channels are the upper sample pipe 344 and the lower sample pipe 345, respectively. The upper sample channel 341 is connected to the upper sample pipe 344 through a sample transfer pipe 3011, and the lower sample channel 342 is connected to the lower sample pipe 345 through a sample transfer pipe 3011.

[0198] One end of the lower sample conduit is connected to the lower sample flow channel 342, and the other end is connected to the sample outlet channel 415 of the sample collection chamber 411. A burette is installed in the middle of the lower sample conduit, which is defined as the sample burette 343. One end of the upper sample conduit is connected to the upper sample flow channel 341, and the other end is connected to the top of the sample burette 343. When a sample needs to be extracted, the rotor 6 is first aligned with the circumferential hole 32 connected to the upper sample flow channel 341 to extract the air from the upper sample flow channel 341, the upper sample conduit, and the sample burette 343, creating a negative pressure in the sample burette 343. The sample can then drip from the sample collection chamber 411 into the sample burette 343. Then, the rotor 6 is rotated so that the transfer channel is aligned with the circumferential hole 32 of the lower sample flow channel 342, extracting the air from the lower sample flow channel 342 and the lower sample conduit, and allowing the liquid in the sample burette 343 to flow from the lower sample conduit into the lower sample flow channel 342. This setup ensures that the sample is slowly dripped into the lower sample channel 342 without generating air bubbles.

[0199] Of course, in another embodiment, an exhaust port 418 is provided in the sample collection chamber 411, the upper sample flow channel 341 can communicate with the exhaust port 418, and the lower sample flow channel 342 can communicate with the sample outlet channel 415 of the sample collection chamber 411. In this case, the sample collection chamber 411 is similar to the sample burette described above, and the operation method is the same as above, so it will not be described again.

[0200] A clear water channel can also be provided in the flow channel plate 3, which is directly connected to the clear water collection chamber 412.

[0201] Of course, the flow channel plate 3 is equipped with two clear water channels, operating on the same principle as the two sample flow channels mentioned above. The two clear water channels are the upper clear water channel 351 and the lower clear water channel 352. The outer ends of the two clear water channels are respectively connected to two circumferential holes 32. Similarly, the outer end of the lower clear water channel is connected to the clear water transfer pipe 3012, which is connected to the clear water collection chamber 412 via the upper clear water pipe 354. The lower clear water pipe 355 is also equipped with a clear water burette 353. The upper clear water pipe 354 is connected to the clear water burette 353 of the lower clear water pipe 355.

[0202] The upper clear water flow channel 351 is connected to the clear water transfer pipe 3012, which is connected to the upper end of the clear water burette 353 through the upper clear water pipe 354.

[0203] When a sample needs to be extracted, the rotor 6 must first be aligned with the circumferential hole 32 connected to the upper clear water channel 351. This extracts air from the upper clear water channel 351, the sample loading clear water pipe, and the clear water burette 353, creating a negative pressure inside the clear water burette. Clear water can then drip from the clear water collection chamber 412 into the clear water burette 353. Next, the rotor 6 is rotated so that the transfer channel is aligned with the circumferential hole 32 of the lower clear water channel 352. This extracts air from the lower clear water channel 352 and the lower clear water pipe, allowing the liquid in the clear water burette 353 to flow from the lower clear water pipe into the lower clear water channel 352. This setup ensures that water drips slowly into the lower clear water channel 352 without generating air bubbles.

[0204] This utility model also relates to a control method for a urine analyzer 100, which includes a reagent kit 2, a collector, a rotary valve, and the aforementioned detection mechanism. The reagent kit 2 is identical to the one described above, having multiple reagent chambers 21, each containing reagents. The collector also has the aforementioned sample collection chamber 411 and water collection chamber 412. The rotary valve, as described above, includes a microfluidic chip and a rotor 6. The microfluidic chip also has a common flow channel 33, a lower sample flow channel 342, an upper sample flow channel 341, an upper water flow channel 351, a lower water flow channel 352, multiple reagent flow channels 37, a detection flow channel 38, an air flow channel 36, and a transfer channel. The outer end of the lower sample flow channel 342 is connected to the sample collection chamber 411 via a lower sample conduit 345, which has a sample burette 343. The outer end of the upper sample flow channel 341 is connected to the top of the sample burette 343. The outer ends of multiple reagent channels 37 are respectively connected to multiple reagent chambers 21. The outer end of the lower clear water channel 352 is connected to the clear water collection chamber 412. The rotor 6 is provided with a transfer channel. When the rotor 6 rotates, it can drive the transfer channel to rotate. The inner end 61 of the transfer channel is located at the center of the rotor 6 and is connected to the inner end of the common channel 33. The outer end rotates with the rotor 6 and is connected to the inner end of the lower sample channel 342, the upper sample channel, the upper clear water channel 351, the lower clear water channel 352, the multiple reagent channels 37, the detection channel 38, and the air channel 36. In other words, each time the rotary valve switches to the lower sample channel 342, upper sample channel, upper clear water channel 351, lower clear water channel 352, multiple reagent channels 37, detection channel 38, or air channel 36, the transfer channel is connected to the lower sample channel 342, upper sample channel, upper clear water channel 351, lower clear water channel 352, multiple reagent channels 37, detection channel 38, or air channel 36.

[0205] The testing mechanism is the same as the one described above, and is equipped with a detector and a testing chamber. The testing chamber is connected to the testing flow channel 38, and the detector is used to test the sample in the testing chamber.

[0206] like Figure 31 As shown, the control method of the urine analyzer 100 includes the following steps:

[0207] S1. The rotary valve switches to the upper sample flow channel 341, and the transfer channel is connected to the upper sample flow channel 341. Air in the sample burette 343 is drawn into the transfer channel and the common flow channel 33, creating a negative pressure in the sample burette 343. The sample in the sample collection chamber 411 then enters the sample burette 343. The rotary valve switches to the upper sample flow channel, and the common flow channel is connected to the upper sample flow channel, allowing air in the sample burette 343 to be drawn into the common flow channel 33, creating a negative pressure in the sample burette 343. After entering the sample burette 343, the sample flows into the bottom of the sample burette 343 under the influence of gravity.

[0208] S2. The rotary valve switches to the lower sample flow channel 342, and the transfer channel is connected to the lower sample flow channel 342, drawing the sample in the sample burette 343 into the common flow channel 33 or the transfer channel. At this time, part of the sample enters the transfer channel, while most of it remains in the lower sample flow channel 342, facilitating subsequent quantitative extraction.

[0209] S3. The rotary valve switches to the lower clear water channel 352. The transfer channel is connected to the lower clear water channel 352, drawing water from the clear water collection chamber 412 into the common channel 33 or the transfer channel. Because the transfer channel and the common channel 33 are connected, if the sample and water volume entering the transfer channel are large, some may enter the common channel 33. The water entering the common channel 33 or the transfer channel mixes with the sample.

[0210] S4. Discharge the sample and water from the outer end of the common flow channel 33. The sample and water can flow out from the outer end of the common flow channel 33 or from the detection chamber; the specific method of discharge is not limited.

[0211] S5. The rotary valve switches to the lower sample flow channel 342. The transfer channel is connected to the lower sample flow channel 342, and the sample in the lower sample flow channel 342 is quantitatively extracted and enters the common flow channel 33 or the transfer channel. In step S2, the sample is drawn into the lower sample flow channel 342. The sample in the lower sample flow channel 342 basically flows to the inner end of the lower sample flow channel 342, so the sample can be quantitatively extracted according to the extraction time.

[0212] S6. The rotary valve switches to the reagent flow channel 37, and the transfer channel is connected to the reagent flow channel 37, quantitatively extracting the reagent in the reagent chamber 21 into the common flow channel 33 or the transfer channel. The reagent flow channel 37 is always connected to the reagent chamber 21, so a portion of the reagent in the reagent chamber 21 is located in the reagent flow channel 37 and can be directly quantitatively extracted.

[0213] S7. The rotary valve switches to the detection channel 38, and the transfer channel is connected to the detection channel 38, pushing the sample and reagent from the common channel 33 or the transfer channel into the detection chamber.

[0214] S8. The detector detects the sample in the detection chamber.

[0215] The outer end of the rotor's transfer channel connects to different flow channels as the rotary valve switches. For example, when the rotary valve switches to the reagent flow channel, the outer end of the transfer channel connects to that reagent flow channel. The same applies when the rotary valve switches to other flow channels, which will not be elaborated further.

[0216] Furthermore, the urine analyzer 100 includes a first pump and a second pump. The first pump is the peristaltic pump 91 mentioned above, and the second pump is a plunger pump 92. The first pump is connected to a first drive pipe, which is connected to the outer end of a common flow channel 33. The second pump is connected to a second drive pipe, which is connected to the outer end of the common flow channel 33.

[0217] In the above steps, in step S1, the first pump rotates forward to extract the air from the sample burette 343.

[0218] In step S2, the first pump rotates forward to draw the sample in the sample burette 343 into the common flow channel 33.

[0219] In step S3, the first pump rotates forward to draw water from the clean water collection chamber 412 into the common flow channel 33.

[0220] In step S4, the first pump rotates forward to discharge the sample and water from the common flow channel 33 through the outer end of the first drive pipe.

[0221] In step S5, the second pump rotates forward and quantitatively extracts the sample from the lower sample channel 342 into the common channel 33.

[0222] In step S6, the second pump rotates forward and quantitatively draws the reagent from the reagent chamber 21 into the common flow channel 33.

[0223] In step S7, the second pump reverses, pushing the sample and reagents in the common flow channel 33 into the detection chamber.

[0224] In other words, the first pump has a long stroke and can extract large amounts of water or samples, while the second pump is mainly responsible for quantitatively extracting samples and reagents.

[0225] Optionally, the lower clear water channel 352 is connected to the clear water collection chamber 412 via the lower clear water pipe 355, and the lower clear water pipe 355 is provided with a clear water burette 353;

[0226] The rotary valve is provided with upper clear water flow, and the upper clear water flow channel 351 is connected to the clear water burette 353;

[0227] In step S3, the rotary valve switches to the upper clear water channel 351, the transfer channel is connected to the upper clear water channel 351, the first pump rotates forward and extracts the air from the clear water burette 353, the clear water burette 353 forms a negative pressure, and the clear water in the clear water collection chamber 412 enters the clear water burette 353. Then, the rotary valve switches to the lower clear water channel 352, and the first pump rotates forward to pump the water in the clear water burette 353 into the lower clear water channel 352.

[0228] Optionally, before step S6, it is determined whether multiple reagents need to be extracted. If only one reagent is needed, step S6 is performed; if multiple reagents are needed, step S6 is repeated. Then, the rotary valve is switched to the detection channel, and the reagents and samples in the transfer channel are pushed into the detection channel. Then, the rotary valve is switched to different reagent channels, and different reagents are extracted into the transfer channel. The extracted reagents are then pushed into the detection channel again.

[0229] In other words, each time the rotary valve is switched to a different reagent channel, the reagent is drawn into the transfer channel, and then the rotary valve is switched to the detection channel, pushing the reagent from the transfer channel into the detection channel to react with the sample. After waiting for a few seconds or a preset time, the rotary valve is switched to a different reagent channel again, drawing different reagents into the detection channel to react with the sample. The reaction time or waiting time can be set as needed. In some embodiments, the waiting time may not be set.

[0230] Some tests can be completed with just one reagent, while others require two or more reagents. When a test requires multiple reagents, step S6 needs to be repeated multiple times, with different reagents drawn each time.

[0231] It should be understood that whether the test item needs to be diluted, the amount of diluted sample required for the test, and the type and amount of reagents required are all set in the control module. Therefore, after the test is started, the control module will determine the process to be carried out based on the test item.

[0232] Optionally, in step S5, after the second pump draws the sample from the lower sample channel 342 into the common channel 33, the process further includes: the rotary valve switches to the lower clear water channel 352, and the second pump quantitatively extracts water from the lower clear water channel 352 into the common channel 33 and mixes it with the sample in the common channel 33 to dilute the sample. Some testing items require mixing the sample with clear water to dilute the sample, so a quantitative amount of clear water needs to be extracted after the sample is extracted.

[0233] In step S6, after the second pump rotates forward to push the reagent in the reagent chamber 21 into the common flow channel 33, the step further includes: the rotary valve switches to the air flow channel 36, and the second pump rotates forward to absorb air into the transfer channel.

[0234] Optionally, in step S5, the second pump quantitatively extracts water from the lower clear water channel 352 into the common channel 33 and mixes it with the sample in the common channel 33, then dilutes the sample for 8-12 seconds. The dilution time is preferably 10 seconds.

[0235] As a preferred embodiment, the rotary valve is further provided with a mixing chamber 39, which is located on the path of the detection channel 38 and communicates with the detection channel 38.

[0236] In step S6, after the second pump quantitatively draws the reagent from the reagent chamber 21 into the common flow channel 33, the process further includes the following step: the rotary valve switches to the air flow channel 36, and the second pump rotates forward to quantitatively draw air into the common flow channel 33. Again, due to stroke limitations, some air needs to be drawn.

[0237] In step S7, the rotary valve switches to the detection channel 38, and the second pump reverses to push the sample and reagents from the common channel 33 into the mixing chamber 39.

[0238] The first pump rotates forward for a preset time, then reverses for a preset time, continuously flowing the reagent and sample within the mixing chamber 39 to form a mixed liquid. The peristaltic pump 91 continuously flows and mixes the reagent and sample within the mixing chamber 39.

[0239] Then the second pump rotates forward, pushing the mixed liquid in the mixing chamber 39 into the detection chamber.
