Description

[0001] This application claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 2024231976211, filed on December 24, 2024, entitled “Sample Detection Post-processing Device”. Technical Field

[0002] This application relates to the field of medical testing technology, and in particular to a sample post-processing device. Background Technology

[0003] Biological samples need to be sealed and stored for a period of time after testing so that they can be reused for subsequent verification. For example, after a blood sample is tested in a test tube, the test tube is sealed and stored. If there are any doubts about the test results later, the relevant test tube can be removed for verification. In order to ensure the integrity of the samples, prevent contamination, and facilitate tracking and management, test tubes are usually sealed with a membrane and a barcode or QR code label is attached to the test tube for scanning registration and identification.

[0004] In related technologies, a sealing machine is usually used to seal the test tubes after testing. After sealing, the test tubes are manually removed, and then the labels on each test tube are scanned by a barcode scanner. This process involves multiple operational steps that require manual intervention, thereby increasing labor costs and the risk of operational errors. Utility Model Content

[0043] Embodiments of this application will now be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. While embodiments of this application are shown in the drawings, it should be understood that this application may be implemented in various forms and should not be limited to the embodiments set forth herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided to make this application more thorough and complete, and to fully convey the scope of this application to those skilled in the art.

[0044] It should be understood that although the terms "first," "second," "third," etc., may be used in this application to describe various information, this information should not be limited to these terms. These terms are only used to distinguish information of the same type from one another. For example, without departing from the scope of this application, first information may also be referred to as second information, and similarly, second information may also be referred to as first information. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of this application, "multiple" means two or more, unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0045] In the description of this application, it should be understood that the terms "length", "width", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing this application and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this application.

[0046] Unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," "linking," and "fixing," etc., should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this application according to the specific circumstances.

[0047] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown in the figure, this application provides a sample post-processing device, including a base frame 1, a sealing device 2, a barcode scanning device 3, and a transmission device 4, all of which are mounted on the base frame 1. The base frame 1 in the figure is a plate-like structure.

[0048] The transmission device 4 includes a drive component 41, a loading station 42, a sealing station 43, a barcode scanning station 44, and a unloading station 45. The sealing device 2 is positioned opposite the sealing station 43, and the barcode scanning device 3 is positioned opposite the barcode scanning station 44. The drive component 41 drives the test tube carrier 9 from the loading station 42 through the sealing station 43, the barcode scanning station 44, and the unloading station 45 in sequence. The sealing device 2 and the barcode scanning device 3 are located above the transmission device 4. The sealing device 2 is above the sealing station 43, and the barcode scanning device 3 is above the barcode scanning station 44. After sample testing, the test tubes are placed on the test tube carrier 9. The operator can first place the test tube carrier 9 at the loading station 42, and the drive component 41 drives the test tube carrier 9 to move sequentially through the loading station 42, the sealing station 43, the barcode scanning station 44, and the unloading station 45.

[0049] By placing the test tube carrier 9 carrying the tested test tubes at the loading station 42 of the transmission device 4, the driving component 41 of the transmission device 4 moves the test tube carrier 9 from the loading station 42 to the sealing station 43. The sealing device 2 seals the test tubes. After sealing, the driving component 41 moves the test tube carrier 9 from the sealing station 43 to the barcode scanning station 44. The barcode scanning device 3 scans each test tube and enters it into the system. After scanning, the driving component 41 moves the test tube carrier 9 to the unloading station 45 for removal and storage. Therefore, the above-mentioned sample post-processing equipment can complete the sealing and scanning operations of the tested test tubes, reducing manual operation steps and improving the degree of automation.

[0050] During scanning, the scanning device 3 scans the QR code or barcode label attached to the test tube. This label corresponds to the detection information in the detection system, such as the identity information of the examinee corresponding to the test sample. After scanning, the scanning device 3 can match each test tube with its corresponding test tube carrier 9 and its position information on the test tube carrier 9, such as the number of the test tube carrier 9 and the number of the hole on the test tube carrier 9. This correspondence can be entered into the sample storage management system so that the corresponding test tube can be found during subsequent verification. This allows for the rapid identification and retrieval of samples that need to be retested from a large number of samples based on the barcode or QR code on the sample tube, realizing the functions of sample retesting and traceability.

[0051] In some embodiments, such as Figure 3 As shown, the barcode scanning device 3 includes a clamping mechanism 31 for holding the test tube, a moving mechanism 32 for driving the clamping mechanism 31 to move, and a first barcode scanner 33 for scanning the test tube.

[0052] Specifically, the clamping mechanism 31 has grippers that hold corresponding test tubes. The moving mechanism 32 drives the clamping mechanism 31 to move, thereby moving the clamped test tubes to a position where the first barcode scanner 33 can scan. After scanning, the test tubes are returned to the test tube carrier 9. The clamping mechanism 31 clamps and picks up each test tube in sequence, thereby completing the scanning of each test tube on the test tube carrier 9. The clamping mechanism 31 may have grippers and power components such as cylinders or motors that drive the grippers to open and close. The clamping mechanism 31 may also have power components that drive the grippers to rotate, so that the test tubes can be rotated when clamping them, so that the labels on the test tubes are turned toward the first barcode scanner 33 for easy scanning. For example, the clamping mechanism 31 includes cylinder grippers, a motor and a rotating shaft, with the motor driving the cylinder grippers to rotate through the rotating shaft.

[0053] like Figure 3 As shown, the scanning device 3 also includes a support rod 34, which is vertically mounted on the base frame 1. The upper end of the support rod 34 is fixedly connected to the moving mechanism 32. The moving mechanism 32 includes an X-axis moving component 321, a Y-axis moving component 322, and a Z-axis moving component 323. The Y-axis moving component 322 is mounted on the X-axis moving component 321, and the X-axis moving component 321 can drive the Y-axis moving component 322 to move along the X-axis direction. The Z-axis moving component 323 is mounted on the Y-axis moving component 322, and the Y-axis moving component 322 can drive the Z-axis moving component 323 to move along the Y-axis direction. The clamping mechanism 31 is mounted on the Z-axis moving component 323, and the Z-axis moving component 323 can drive the clamping mechanism 31 to move along the Z-axis direction. The Z-axis is vertical, while the X-axis and Y-axis are both horizontal and perpendicular. As a three-axis moving mechanism, the moving mechanism 32 can drive the clamping mechanism 31 to move in three-dimensional space. Of course, the mobile mechanism 32 can also be of other types, such as a robotic arm.

[0054] like Figure 4 As shown, the sealing device 2 is equipped with an unwinding roller 102 and a take-up roller 103 above it. The aluminum film 101 passes downward through the sealing device 2 via the unwinding roller 102. After the sealing device 2 seals the aluminum film 101 onto the test tube, the waste film is taken up by the take-up roller 103. The sealing device 2 presses the aluminum film 101 downward to the openings of multiple test tubes. By heating and pressurizing, the aluminum film 101 is sealed to the openings of the test tubes. Then, a circular cutter separates the aluminum film 101 at the openings of the test tubes from the entire aluminum film 101. The separated waste film is taken up by the take-up roller 103. The specific structure and working principle of the sealing device 2 can adopt existing sealing devices for sealing test tube openings.

[0055] In some embodiments, such as Figure 5As shown, the transmission device 4 includes a limiting groove 46 extending along the moving path of the test tube carrier 9, and the test tube carrier 9 can move along the limiting groove 46. Specifically, the limiting groove 46 can limit the test tube carrier 9 when it moves, and the cross-section of the limiting groove 46 can be rectangular. The limiting groove 46 is provided on the upper surface of the base frame 1.

[0056] In some embodiments, such as Figure 5 As shown, the movement path of the test tube carrier 9 is U-shaped, that is, the limiting groove 46 extends along the U-shape. Please refer to the following: Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the loading station 42 and the unloading station 45 are located on the same side of the sample post-processing equipment. Specifically, both the loading station 42 and the unloading station 45 are located on the front side of the sample post-processing equipment, which facilitates the loading and unloading of the test tube carrier 9 into and out of the sample post-processing equipment. Of course, in some other embodiments, the movement path of the test tube carrier 9 can be in other shapes, such as a straight line or an L-shape, while using a U-shape facilitates the loading and unloading of materials and makes the equipment compact, resulting in a small equipment size. Figure 5 In the middle, the loading station 42 and the unloading station 45 are located at the two ends of the U-shaped limiting groove 46, and the sealing station 43 and the barcode scanning station 44 are located at the two bends of the U-shaped limiting groove 46.

[0057] In some embodiments, such as Figure 5 As shown, the driving component 41 includes a first driving unit 411, a second driving unit 412, and a third driving unit 413. The first driving unit 411 drives the test tube carrier 9 from the loading station 42 to the sealing station 43. The second driving unit 412 drives the test tube carrier 9 from the sealing station 43 to the barcode scanning station 44. The third driving unit 413 drives the test tube carrier 9 from the barcode scanning station 44 to the unloading station 45. Specifically, the three driving units correspond to the three positions of the U-shaped limiting groove 46, respectively, and drive the test tube carrier 9 to move at the three positions.

[0058] In some embodiments, such as Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the first drive unit 411 includes a first moving member 411a and a first drive member 411b connected to the first moving member 411a. The first drive member 411b is used to drive the first moving member 411a to move back and forth between the loading station 42 and the sealing station 43. Specifically, the first moving member 411a pushes one side of the test tube carrier 9 to move it to the sealing station 43. During sealing, the edge of the first moving member 411a and the limiting groove 46 can clamp the test tube carrier 9, thereby positioning the test tube carrier 9. The first drive member 411b can be a motor. The first drive member 411b can drive the first moving member 411a to move back and forth via a synchronous belt 411c. The first moving member 411a can be slidably connected to the base frame 1.

[0059] Please refer to the following: Figure 7 The second driving unit 412 includes a second moving part 412a and a second driving part 412b connected to the second moving part 412a. The second driving part 412b is used to drive the second moving part 412a to move back and forth between the sealing station 43 and the barcode scanning station 44. The sealing device 2 is limited by the width of the aluminum film 101, so the number of test tubes it can seal at one time is limited. When the number of test tubes arranged in each row of the test tube carrier 9 is large, the test tubes on one test tube carrier 9 can be sealed in two stages. For example, when the test tube carrier 9 moves from the loading station 42 to the sealing station 43, the sealing device 2 seals half of the test tubes. Then, the second moving part 412a pushes the test tube carrier 9 a certain distance, and the sealing device 2 seals the other half of the test tubes. After sealing, the second moving part 412a pushes the test tube carrier 9 to the barcode scanning station 44. During the sealing operation, the first moving part 411a presses the test tube carrier 9 to position it, and when the second moving part 412a pushes the test tube carrier 9, the first moving part 411a releases the test tube carrier 9. The second driving part 412b can be a motor, and can drive the second moving part 412a back and forth via a synchronous belt 412c. The second moving part 412a can be slidably connected to the base frame 1.

[0060] Please refer to the following: Figure 8 The third drive unit 413 includes a third moving component 413a and a third drive component 413b connected to the third moving component 413a. The third drive component 413b is used to drive the third moving component 413a to move back and forth between the scanning station 44 and the unloading station 45. Specifically, during scanning, the third moving component 413a clamps and limits the test tube carrier 9 from both sides. After scanning, the third moving component 413a can drive the test tube carrier 9 from the scanning station 44 to the unloading station 45. The third drive component 413b can be a motor. The third drive component 413b can drive the third moving component 413a to move back and forth via a synchronous belt 413c. The third moving component 413a can be slidably connected to the base frame 1.

[0061] In some embodiments, such as Figure 5 As shown, a ramp 47 is provided between the barcode scanning station 44 and the unloading station 45 so that the test tube carrier 9 can move upward from the barcode scanning station 44 along the ramp 47 to the unloading station 45. In this way, the test tube carrier 9 is raised too high at the unloading station 45, making it easy to pick up.

[0062] In some embodiments, such as Figure 5 As shown, a second barcode scanner 5 is provided on one side of the loading station 42 on the base frame 1. The second barcode scanner 5 is used to scan the label on the test tube carrier 9 to enter the information of the corresponding test tube carrier 9 into the system for easy retrieval during verification.

[0063] In some embodiments, a first empty space sensor 6 and a test tube identification sensor are provided on one side of the base frame 1 at the loading station 42. The first empty space sensor 6 is used to identify whether there is material placed at the loading station 42, and the test tube identification sensor is used to identify the model of the test tube. Different models of test tubes have different lengths, and therefore different operating parameters during sealing. By identifying the model of the test tube by the test tube identification sensor, the sealing device 2 can perform the sealing operation according to the identified model. Both the first empty space sensor 6 and the test tube identification sensor are photoelectric sensors, which can determine whether the light is blocked by detecting whether the light is blocked.

[0064] In some embodiments, a second empty space sensor 7 is provided on one side of the unloading station 45 on the base frame 1. The second empty space sensor 7 is used to identify whether there is material at the unloading station 45, thereby reminding the operator to remove the material.

[0065] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 As shown, the sample post-processing equipment also includes a housing 8 located on the base frame 1, and the sealing device 2, the barcode scanning device 3 and the transmission device 4 are all located inside the housing 8.

[0066] The housing 8 is provided with a feed inlet 81 opposite to the loading station 42, a discharge outlet 82 opposite to the unloading station 45, and a human-machine interaction device 83. The test tube carrier 9 enters the housing 8 through the feed inlet 81 and is taken out through the discharge outlet 82. The human-machine interaction device 83 can be a touch screen.

[0067] In some embodiments, the sample post-processing equipment further includes a controller, which is communicatively connected to the sealing device 2, the barcode scanner 3, and the drive component 41. The controller may be housed within the housing 8 and may be an industrial computer, etc. The controller is used to control the sealing device 2, the barcode scanner 3, and the drive component 41 to perform relevant actions. The controller can also function as a storage device to store relevant information about the sample tubes, such as the detection information and location information of the sample tubes obtained through the barcode scanner 3. This allows for direct querying of the corresponding sample tubes via the human-machine interface 83 on the sample post-processing equipment during subsequent reviews. In this way, the sample post-processing equipment does not need to communicate with the medical institution's sample storage management system and can be used as an independent device. Medical institutions may also not need to set up a laboratory management system (LIS), thereby reducing costs. This is more suitable for small medical institutions that require low-cost expenditures and have a small number of patients to be tested.

[0068] This application embodiment also provides another sample post-processing device, including a base frame, a sealing device, a barcode scanning device, and a transmission device, all of which are located on the base frame.

[0069] The transmission device includes a drive unit, a loading station, a barcode scanning station, a sealing station, and a unloading station. The sealing device is set opposite to the sealing station, and the barcode scanning device is set opposite to the barcode scanning station. The drive unit is used to drive the test tube carrier from the loading station through the barcode scanning station, the sealing station, and the unloading station in sequence.

[0070] Specifically, during operation, an empty test tube rack is placed at the loading station. The barcode scanning device scans the tested test tubes sequentially and places them on the test tube rack. Then, the test tube rack is moved to the sealing station for sealing. After sealing, the tubes are unloaded and stored. This sample post-processing equipment can be used in conjunction with an automated sample testing line. The barcode scanning device scans the barcodes of the test tubes sent out after testing by the automated sample testing line and clamps and places them onto the test tube rack, thereby automatically performing sealing and barcode scanning operations on the sample test tubes, improving automation and reducing labor costs and error rates.
