Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of laboratory sample testing technology, and in particular to a structure for transferring test samples in a laboratory. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, when testing samples in the laboratory, the sample receiving point and the testing point of the sample are a certain distance apart. The samples are usually transported into the testing laboratory in batches by manual handling. However, this method is relatively troublesome, time-consuming and labor-intensive. When using a general conveyor belt mechanism for transmission, after multiple samples are placed onto the conveyor belt from the receiving point in sequence, due to the certain transmission distance, the risk of damage to the samples during the transmission process cannot be avoided. The samples may collide or deviate from the conveyor belt and fall off.

[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to simplify the entire sample transfer process and effectively avoid sample damage during transfer. Based on customer feedback regarding the shortcomings of existing devices, the inventors have made further improvements to overcome the aforementioned problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide an automated transport system that simplifies the sample transfer process, improves transfer efficiency, and prevents sample damage during transfer, thus enabling the transfer of test samples in the laboratory.

[0005] The objective of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: a transfer structure for testing samples in a laboratory, including a conveyor belt and transport components;

[0006] One end of the conveyor belt is positioned near the sample receiving window, and the other end is positioned near the detection point. Multiple transport components are adaptedly installed on the conveyor belt, spaced apart from each other. Each transport component includes a mounting block and a transport frame. Grooves adapted to the mounting blocks are provided on both sides of the conveyor belt. Multiple mounting blocks are inserted into and fixed in the grooves, and a transport frame is fixed to the upper part of each mounting block. The transport frame has an open top for easy sample insertion.

[0007] When the conveyor belt is started, the mounting blocks are inserted into the grooves on the left and right sides of the conveyor belt. Multiple transport components move along the length of the conveyor belt, inserting multiple samples one-to-one into multiple transport frames through the sample receiving window. The samples are then transported by the conveyor belt to the testing point and taken out.

[0008] As a preferred technical solution of this application, the conveyor belt is horizontally set on the ground after being supported by a bracket, and multiple transport components are fixed on the conveyor belt at intervals.

[0009] As a preferred technical solution of this application, it also includes a base, which consists of two long rectangular plates arranged opposite each other. Multiple supports are provided on the lower surface of the two long rectangular plates, and multiple rotating rollers are inserted between the bases. A conveyor belt is wound on the rotating rollers.

[0010] As a preferred technical solution of this application, the rotating roller is connected to a motor, and the rotating roller is driven to rotate by the motor, so that the conveyor belt moves back and forth from left to right.

[0011] As a preferred technical solution of this application, the mounting block is I-shaped, and the bottom end of the I-shaped mounting block is adapted to be inserted into the left and right grooves of the conveyor belt.

[0012] As a preferred technical solution of this application, the transport frame includes an outer frame and an inner frame; the inner frame is fitted inside the outer frame and a spring is provided between the outer surface of the inner frame and the inner surface of the outer frame, so as to support and buffer the sample placed in the inner frame.

[0013] This utility model has the following advantages:

[0014] (1) Automated transportation simplifies the sample transfer process and improves transfer efficiency;

[0015] Currently, samples are usually transported into the testing laboratory in batches by manual handling, but this method is cumbersome, time-consuming, and labor-intensive. This solution uses a conveyor belt and multiple transport components configured on the conveyor belt. These multiple transport components can transport a single sample individually, achieving automated transport while efficiently simplifying the entire transportation process and improving overall efficiency.

[0016] (2) To avoid damage to the sample during the transfer process;

[0017] During the transport process, multiple samples may collide with each other after being placed on the conveyor belt, or shift relative to the end point of the conveyor belt during transport, resulting in damage or falling of the samples during transport. Therefore, this solution is designed with transport components to place each sample independently in each transport component. At the same time, multiple buffer springs are set in the transport frame to further protect and support the samples. Attached Figure Description

[0025] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited to the following description.

[0026] It should be noted that the orientation or positional relationship indicated by terms such as "left" and "right" is based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, or the orientation or positional relationship that the product of this invention is usually placed in during use, or the orientation or positional relationship that is commonly understood by those skilled in the art. Such terms are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and are not intended to indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.

[0027] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features and technical solutions in the present invention can be combined with each other.

[0028] Therefore, based on the above issues, please refer to Figure 1 This invention proposes a transfer structure for testing samples in the laboratory to solve the problem.

[0029] See Figures 1-6 The present embodiment proposes a sample transfer structure in the laboratory, including a conveyor belt 1, a support 2, and transport components;

[0030] Conveyor belt 1 is positioned between the sample receiving window and the detection point, with the left and right ends of conveyor belt 1 located beside the sample receiving window and the detection point, respectively.

[0031] Among them, see Figure 1Multiple transport components are adapted to be installed in the conveyor belt 1, and the multiple transport components are equally spaced on the same conveyor belt 1; the transport components include a transport frame and a mounting block 6. The mounting block 6 is fixedly installed to both sides of the conveyor belt 1 and is fixed by insertion through the groove 5 on the side. At the same time, a transport frame is provided on the upper surface of the mounting block 6. The upper end of the transport frame is open, so that the sample can be fitted into it and transported by the conveyor belt 1 and the transport components.

[0032] During operation, when the drive conveyor belt 1 moves, multiple transport components move along the length of the conveyor belt 1, inserting multiple samples one-to-one into multiple transport frames through the sample receiving window, and then transporting them to the detection point by the conveyor belt 1 before taking them out.

[0033] Currently, due to considerations of sample safety and contamination prevention, the testing laboratory and the sample receiving location are often some distance apart. Therefore, transporting samples from the receiving point to the testing point is often inconvenient and time-consuming, necessitating the design of a transport mechanism. However, current transport mechanisms cannot eliminate the risk of sample damage during transport; samples may collide or deviate from the conveyor belt 1 and fall off. Therefore, this solution designs a transport structure that uses the conveyor belt 1 and transport components designed on it to independently place each sample in each transport component, which is then transported by the conveyor belt 1. This simplifies the sample transport process, automates the entire transport, and effectively prevents sample damage during transport.

[0034] In this embodiment, see Figure 1 and Figure 3 Regarding the design of conveyor belt 1: Conveyor belt 1 is supported by multiple brackets 2 and is horizontally set on the ground. A base is also set on the upper side of the brackets 2. The base consists of two rectangular plates 3 arranged opposite each other. Multiple brackets 2 are set below the rectangular plates 3 to support the device set on the ground. Multiple rotatable rollers 10 are inserted between the opposite rectangular plates 3. A conveyor belt 1 is wound around the rollers 10. The conveyor belt 1 moves back and forth along the base direction to transport samples. For conveyor belt 1, the conveyor belt 1 is installed in the base by multiple rollers 10. When the rollers 10 are driven to rotate, the conveyor belt 1 moves along the base direction, transporting multiple transport components placed on the conveyor belt 1 from left to right. Multiple equally spaced transport components are set on the surface of the conveyor belt 1. The transport components can be fitted into the grooves 5 of the conveyor belt 1 to avoid the samples from tilting or shaking during transportation, thereby improving the efficiency of transportation.

[0035] Furthermore, the rotating roller 10 is connected to the motor 4, and the motor 4 drives the rotating roller 10 to rotate, so that the conveyor belt 1 moves back and forth from left to right.

[0036] In this embodiment, see Figures 4-6 For the transport components; multiple transport components are installed at equal intervals on the outside of the conveyor belt 1 and fixed to the conveyor belt 1, moving with the movement of the conveyor belt 1. The transport components include mounting blocks 6 and transport frames; the mounting blocks 6 are I-shaped, with their lower cross arms longer than their upper cross arms. The left and right sides of the lower cross arms are adapted to be inserted into the grooves 5 on the left and right sides of the conveyor belt 1. The grooves 5 on the left and right sides of the conveyor belt 1 are long straight grooves, adapted to be opened on the left and right sides of the conveyor belt 1; a transport frame is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the upper cross arm of the mounting block 6. The transport frame is divided into an outer frame 7 and a transport frame 8. The inner frame 8, outer frame 7, and inner frame 8 are all rectangular frames. The inner frame 8 is inserted inside the outer frame 7. The outer frame 7 and the inner frame 8 are connected by multiple springs 9. Specifically, a spring 9 is installed on the front, back, left, right, and bottom inner surfaces of the outer frame 7, and on the front, back, left, right, and bottom inner surfaces of the inner frame 8. The springs 9 support and buffer the sample. When the sample is placed in the inner frame 8, the conveyor belt 1 starts and moves the transport component toward the detection point. At this time, the springs 9 can fully play a buffering role to prevent the sample from shaking or shifting, so that it can be transported smoothly and the stability of the whole process can be improved.

[0037] During operation, when the motor 4 is started and the conveyor belt 1 is driven to move, multiple transport components move from left to right along the length of the conveyor belt 1. At the same time, multiple samples are inserted one-to-one into multiple transport frames through the sample receiving window. After being transported to the detection point by the conveyor belt 1, the samples are taken out for testing.

[0038] It should be noted that the speed of the conveyor belt 1 can be controlled by controlling the motor 4, thereby controlling the speed of multiple transport components. This avoids the transport components moving too fast due to excessive speed, which would prevent the samples from being inserted into the transport frame in time.

[0039] Currently, due to considerations of sample safety and contamination prevention, the testing laboratory and the sample receiving location are often some distance apart. Therefore, transporting samples from the receiving point to the testing point is inconvenient and time-consuming, often requiring manual handling to move samples in batches into the testing laboratory. Thus, a conveyor mechanism is needed. However, current conveyor mechanisms cannot completely eliminate the risk of sample damage during transport; samples may collide or slip off the conveyor belt 1 and fall off. Therefore, this solution uses a conveyor belt 1 and transport components designed on it, working together to independently place each sample in a transport component, which is then transported by the conveyor belt 1. The mounting part of the transport component is I-shaped, fitting snugly into the groove 5, and will not fall off when the transport component rotates to the lower side of the conveyor belt 1. This device design simplifies the sample transfer process, automates the entire transport, and effectively prevents sample damage during transport.

[0040] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
