[0002] Radioactive medicine activity measurement refers to the process of quantitatively determining the number of times of decay of radionuclides in radioactive medicine per unit time (i.e., radioactivity). Radioactivity is a key quality parameter of radioactive medicine, directly related to the effectiveness and safety of the medicine in clinical diagnosis or treatment. The activity of radioactive medicine must be accurately controlled to ensure that sufficient radiation dose reaches the target tissue (such as tumor), thereby achieving therapeutic effect. Too high activity may result in excessive radiation received by the patient, increasing the risk of side effects; too low activity may not achieve the desired therapeutic or diagnostic effect.
[0003] The current activity detection method is usually that medical staff manually places the syringe into the activity meter, or first places it on an intermediate rack and then manually places the intermediate rack into the activity meter. This operation has the following defects: because the measurement port is generally small, manual placement can easily hit the activity meter or cause the syringe to shake or tilt, resulting in leakage of the medicine in the syringe, inaccurate injection volume, and long-term operation in the isolation room, which is harmful to medical staff and not conducive to subsequent development of automated batch packaging operations.

[0028] The technical solutions of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the embodiments of this utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.
[0029] Example:
[0030] like Figs. 1 to 6 As shown, a radiopharmaceutical activity measuring device includes a measuring host 1, an ionization chamber 2 and a base 3. The measuring host 1 and the ionization chamber 2 are both mounted on the base 3. A sample handling mechanism 5 for handling samples is provided on the base 3 on the left side of the ionization chamber 2. A measuring frame 6 is placed inside the ionization chamber 2.
[0031] The loading and unloading mechanism 5 includes a lifting connecting plate 51, a housing 52, a lifting support arm 53, a base plate 54, fixed columns 55, an electric push rod 56, and a support rod 514. The base plate 54 is fixed to the base 3 by four sets of fixed columns 55. An electric push rod 56 is fixed at the left edge of the base plate 54, and the lifting connecting plate 51 is fixed at the upper end of the electric push rod 56. A second bearing seat 513 is embedded in the base plate 54 on the right side of the electric push rod 56. A bushing 512 is installed inside the second bearing seat 513, and a support rod 514 that can slide up and down is inserted inside the bushing 512. The upper end of the support rod 514 is rotatably connected to the lifting connecting plate 51 through a first bearing seat 57. A driven synchronous pulley 511 is mounted on the annular surface of the support rod 514. The support rod 514 has a support on the upper side of the driven synchronous pulley 511. A lifting arm 53 is fitted onto the ring surface of rod 514. The lifting arm 53 is connected to the measuring frame 6 via a connecting plate 7. A servo motor 510 is installed on the base plate 54 behind the second shaft seat 513. An active synchronous pulley 58 is mounted on the upper output end of the servo motor 510. The active synchronous pulley 58 is connected to the driven synchronous pulley 511 via a synchronous toothed belt 59. This design solves the problem that existing activity meters mainly rely on manual operation to pick up and put down samples. Due to the small opening of the ionization chamber 2 measuring cavity, manual placement is not accurate enough. During the manual placement process, the sample or measuring frame 6 is prone to hitting the inner wall of the ionization chamber 2 measuring cavity, making it difficult to accurately and quickly place the sample into the ionization chamber 2 measuring cavity. This makes the operation inconvenient and affects the measurement efficiency.
[0032] When the lifting arm 53 moves up and down, the measuring frame 6 moves synchronously, thereby achieving precise loading and unloading of samples from the outside into the measuring chamber 2 of the ionization chamber. This eliminates the traditional manual sample loading and unloading method and automates the sample loading and unloading process. The operator only needs to issue a command through the measuring host 1, and the device can automatically complete the loading and unloading actions, greatly shortening the operation time and improving the measurement efficiency.
[0033] In this embodiment, the right end of the connecting plate 7 is fixedly connected to the measuring frame 6. The right end of the lifting arm 53 has a connecting groove 531 that matches the connecting plate 7. The left end of the connecting plate 7 is inserted into the connecting groove 531. Positioning holes 533 are provided inside both the lifting arm 53 and the connecting plate 7 at the connecting groove 531. Fastening bolts 532 for locking are provided inside the positioning holes 533. The connecting groove 531, in conjunction with the connecting plate 7, facilitates the quick assembly and disassembly of the measuring frame 6, making it convenient to install and replace the measuring frame 6. During installation, simply align the connecting plate 7 with the connecting groove 531 and insert it to complete the initial connection; during disassembly, simply pull the connecting plate 7 out of the connecting groove 531, making the operation convenient and quick. The fastening bolts 532 provide reliable connection strength, ensuring that the two will not separate during device operation.
[0034] In this embodiment, positioning stops 61 for guiding and positioning are fixed on both the front and rear sides of the upper end of the measuring frame 6. A positioning baffle 62 perpendicular to the positioning stops 61 is fixed to the upper end of each positioning stop 61 for positioning. The positioning stops 61 guide the measuring frame 6 to move precisely up and down along the inner wall of the ionization chamber 2, achieving positioning and guidance of the measuring frame 6 and preventing it from shaking and colliding with the chamber wall. Simultaneously, the positioning baffle 62 supports and limits the measuring frame 6 from above. When the measuring frame 6 reaches the measurement position, the positioning baffle 62 contacts the upper surface of the ionization chamber 2, achieving precise positioning.
[0035] In this embodiment, a cover 52 is provided on the upper side of the base plate 54. The upper surface of the cover 52 is located below the lifting arm 53. The cover 52 has matching slots at the corresponding positions of the electric push rod 56 and the support rod 514. The cover 52 isolates the electric push rod 56, servo motor 510 and other components on the base plate 54 from the external environment, preventing damage or malfunction caused by accidental collisions with external objects, thus extending the service life of the device. At the same time, during the operation of the device, the cover 52 can prevent the operator from contacting the moving parts, avoiding pinching injuries and ensuring the operator's safety.
[0036] In this embodiment, a limiting baffle 521 parallel to the lifting arm 53 is fixed on the upper surface of the housing 52, and the limiting baffle 521 is located at the rear side of the lifting arm 53. The limiting baffle 521 limits the rotation of the lifting arm 53, preventing the lifting arm 53 from shifting due to inertia during rotation, thus ensuring the stability and positional accuracy of the lifting arm 53 and the measuring frame 6 during movement.
[0037] In this embodiment, the support rod 514 has a keyway 515 on its annular surface, and the inner surface of the bushing 512 has a spline 516 that matches the keyway 515. The keyway 515 and the spline 516 are used to drive the bushing 512 to rotate horizontally. When the support rod 514 is inserted into the bushing 512, the spline 516 can accurately fit into the keyway 515, achieving a tight fit between the two, thereby driving the bushing 512 to rotate, while not affecting the vertical movement of the support rod 514.
[0038] In this embodiment, a limiting piece 5141 is fixed at the bottom of the support rod 514. The diameter of the limiting piece 5141 is larger than the inner diameter of the bottom of the bushing 512. The limiting piece 5141 plays a limiting role in the movement of the support rod 514, which can prevent the support rod 514 from moving excessively and effectively limit the lifting and lowering position of the support rod 514.
[0039] In this embodiment, the bottom of the base 3 is provided with four sets of foot pads 4, which play a role in stabilizing support and preventing slippage.
[0040] It should be noted that the ionization chamber 2, the electric push rod 56, and the servo motor 510 are all electrically connected to the measuring host 1 via wires and are controlled by the measuring host 1.
[0041] The working principle of this radiopharmaceutical activity measuring device:
[0042] Initially, the measuring frame 6 is located inside the ionization chamber 2. When sample testing is required, the operator issues a sample pick-up / placement command through the measuring host 1. The measuring host 1 then activates the electric push rod 56, which extends upward. The electric push rod 56, via the lifting connecting plate 51, moves the lifting support arm 53 upward, thereby moving the measuring frame 6 upward and detaching it from the ionization chamber 2. After the measuring frame 6 is completely detached from the ionization chamber 2, the servo motor 510 starts, driving the active synchronous pulley 58 to rotate 90 degrees clockwise. The active synchronous pulley 58, via the synchronous toothed belt 59, drives the driven synchronous pulley 511 to rotate 90 degrees clockwise, thereby driving the support rod 514 to rotate 90 degrees clockwise. The support rod 514 then drives the measuring frame 6 to rotate 90 degrees clockwise, moving it from above the ionization chamber 2 to directly in front of the housing 52. The sample is then placed on the measuring frame 6. Next, the servo motor 510 is controlled to rotate 90 degrees in reverse, causing the support rod 514 to rotate in reverse, which in turn causes the measuring frame 6 to rotate 90 degrees in reverse, positioning it directly above the ionization chamber 2. Then, the electric push rod 56 is controlled to retract, causing the support rod 514 to move downwards, allowing the measuring frame 6 to descend into the ionization chamber 2. Finally, the sample in the ionization chamber 2 is tested using the measuring host 1.
[0043] Obviously, the above embodiments of this utility model are merely examples for clearly illustrating this utility model, and are not intended to limit the implementation of this utility model. For those skilled in the art, other variations or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is impossible to exhaustively list all the implementation methods here. Any obvious variations or modifications derived from the technical solutions of this utility model are still within the protection scope of this utility model.
