[0032] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0033] The sample collection bucket 3 unlocking device according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a frame 1, a conveying component 2, a sample collection bucket 3, a horizontal moving component 4, an unlocking component 5, and a cover bracket 6. The conveying component 2 is disposed at the bottom of the frame 1 and is adapted to input or output the sample collection bucket 3.

[0034] The horizontal moving component 4 is located at the top of the frame 1. The cover bracket 6 and the conveying component 2 are spaced apart relative to each other in the width direction of the frame 1. The unlocking component 5 is located on the horizontal moving component 4. The horizontal moving component 4 drives the unlocking component 5 to move in the width direction of the frame 1 so that the unlocking component 5 moves above the conveying component 2 or the cover bracket 6.

[0035] Specifically, such as Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the horizontal moving component 4 drives the unlocking component 5 to move along the front-to-back direction on the horizontal plane. The horizontal moving component 4 can be a linear guide rail 5231, on which the unlocking component 5 is provided. The linear guide rail 5231 causes the unlocking component 5 to move in the front-to-back direction so that the unlocking component 5 moves above the cover holder 6 or the conveying component 2. When the unlocking component 5 is above the conveying component 2, the conveying component 2 transports the sample collection bucket 3 to below the unlocking component 5. The unlocking component 5 unlocks the sample collection bucket 3, that is, it lifts the bucket lid 32 of the sample collection bucket. Then the horizontal moving component moves the unlocking component 5 to the cover holder 6, and then the unlocking component 5 releases the bucket lid 32 so that the bucket lid 32 is placed on the cover holder 6, realizing unmanned unlocking.

[0036] The conveying component 2 can be a belt conveyor to input or output the sample collection bucket 3 to the frame 1. Alternatively, the conveying component 2 can be a belt conveyor and a bucket pushing component 22. The belt conveyor receives the input sample collection bucket 3, that is, it receives the sample collection bucket 3 from the previous process, and then conveys the sample collection bucket 3 to the position to be pushed. At this time, the bucket pushing component 22 pushes the sample collection bucket 3 on the input belt conveyor away, so as to push the sample collection bucket 3 to the output end of the conveying component 2, thereby activating the horizontal movement component 4 and unlocking the sampling.

[0037] The conveying assembly 2 and the cap removal frame are arranged at intervals in the front-to-back direction so that the horizontal moving assembly 4 can move the unlocking assembly 5 above the conveying assembly 2 or the cap removal frame in the front-to-back direction, thus avoiding interference between the bucket lid 32 and the unlocked bucket body 31.

[0038] The sample collection container 3 unlocking device of this utility model, by setting up an unlocking component 5, a conveying component 2, and a horizontal moving component 4, facilitates the opening of the sample collection container after unlocking, reduces labor intensity, and improves monitoring accuracy. Simultaneously, the conveying component 2 and the cap removal frame are arranged at intervals in the front-to-back direction to place the unlocked container cap 32 separately on the cap support 6, avoiding interference between the unlocked container cap 32 and the sample collection container 3. Furthermore, it eliminates the need for manual picking up or putting down of the container cap 32, preventing cross-contamination of samples due to manual operation and improving monitoring accuracy.

[0039] Furthermore, the unlocking component 5 includes a vertical moving part 51 and an unlocking part 52. The vertical moving part 51 is disposed on the horizontal moving part 4, and the unlocking part 52 is disposed on the vertical moving part 51. The vertical moving part moves in the height direction of the frame 1. The vertical moving part 51 and the unlocking part 52 are connected. The upper end of the vertical moving part 51 is disposed on the horizontal moving part 4, and the lower end of the vertical moving part 51 is provided with the unlocking part 52. The vertical moving part 51 moves in the vertical direction to drive the unlocking part 52 to move in the vertical direction, thereby grabbing or putting down the bucket lid 32, so as to place the unlocked bucket lid 32 on the tray.

[0040] In some embodiments, the unlocking component 52 includes a base plate 521, a drive member 522, and an unlocking claw 523. The base plate 521 is provided with the drive member 522, and the output end of the drive member 522 engages with the unlocking claw 523. There are two unlocking claws 523, which are arranged at intervals relative to each other in the circumferential direction of the base plate 521. The output end of the drive member 522 drives the two unlocking claws 523 to move closer to or further away from each other.

[0041] The upper end of the base plate 521 is provided with a driving component 522, which can be a stepper motor. The output end of the driving component 522 is provided with a gear 5221 to mesh with the unlocking claw 523. The output end of the driving component 522 rotates to drive the unlocking claws 523 on both sides of the base plate 521 to move closer or further apart to grip or release the bucket lid 32.

[0042] Furthermore, the unlocking claw 523 includes a guide rail 5231, a rack 5232, a slide bar 5233, and a sliding hook 5234. The rack 5232 is mounted on the guide rail 5231 and meshes with the output end of the drive unit 522. The rack 5232 is connected to one end of the slide bar 5233, and the other end of the slide bar 5233 is connected to the sliding hook 5234.

[0043] The guide rail 5231 is mounted on the upper end of the base plate 521, and the rack 5232 is mounted on the guide rail 5231. When the output end of the drive unit 522 rotates, the rack 5232 moves on the guide rail 5231, causing the sliding rods on both sides and the sliding hooks 5234 to move closer or further apart. The sliding hooks 5234 move closer or further apart to clamp or release the lid 32, thereby unlocking the lid 32. The shape of the sliding hooks 5234 can be matched with the lid 32 to facilitate clamping or releasing the lid 32.

[0044] The sample collection bucket 3 unlocking device of this utility model is provided with a guide rail 5231 and a rack 5232. The rack 5232 is used to mesh with the output end of the drive member 522. The output end of the drive member 522 rotates and drives the rack 5232 to move back and forth on the guide rail 5231, thereby moving the sliding rods 5233 and sliding hooks 5234 on both sides closer or further apart, so as to clamp or release the bucket lid 32 without the need for manual picking up or putting down the bucket lid 32, thus avoiding cross-contamination of samples caused by manual operation.

[0045] Furthermore, the sliding hook 5234 includes a connecting plate 52341 and a bending plate 52342. The connecting plate 52341 is connected to the bending plate 52342. The sample collection bucket 3 includes a bucket body 31 and a bucket lid 32. The bucket lid 32 is detachably placed on the top of the bucket body 31. The bucket lid 32 is provided with a bending part 321 corresponding to the bending plate 52342.

[0046] The connecting plate 52341 extends vertically, and the bending plate 52342 extends horizontally. The bending plate 52342 can be an arc-shaped plate, and the openings of the two arc-shaped plates are opposite to each other so as to clamp the bucket lid 32 when they come close to each other.

[0047] Meanwhile, the lid 32 is provided with a bending part 321 corresponding to the bending plate 52342, which makes it easy for the bending plate 52342 to clamp or release the bending part 321 when it moves with the connecting plate 52341, thereby clamping or releasing the lid 32.

[0048] In some embodiments, a limiting block and a guide block are also provided on the top of the base plate 521, and one end of the slide rod 5233 passes through the guide block and is connected to the sliding hook 5234.

[0049] The bottom of the rack 5232 is provided with a limiting part corresponding to the limiting block to prevent the unlocking claw 523 from disengaging from the base plate 521.

[0050] The rack 5232 has a protruding limiting part at the bottom and a limiting block on the base plate 521, thereby preventing the rack 5232 from detaching from the base plate 521 due to inertia when it moves, thus improving the stability of the rack 5232 in use.

[0051] In some embodiments, the unlocking component 52 further includes a magnetic component 7 and a micro switch 8 disposed at the bottom of the base plate 521, wherein the monitoring end of the micro switch 8 faces away from the base plate 521.

[0052] Specifically, such as Figures 1 to 6As shown, when clamping the lid 32, the magnetic suction component 7 generates magnetic force to magnetically attract the lid 32. A microswitch 8 is located at the bottom of the base plate 521, with its monitoring end facing away from the base plate 521. The microswitch 8 determines whether the unlocking claw 523 has gripped the lid 32, preventing unlocking failure and improving unlocking stability and security. Simultaneously, the magnetic force generated by the magnetic suction component 7 can unlock the lid 32 independently if the unlocking claw 523 fails, further improving unlocking stability.

[0053] In some embodiments, the sample collection bucket 3 unlocking device further includes a first induction switch 9 and a second induction switch 10 disposed on the frame 1. The position of the first induction switch 9 on the frame 1 corresponds to the position of the input end of the conveying component 2 on the frame 1, and the position of the second induction switch 10 on the frame 1 corresponds to the position of the output end of the conveying component 2 on the frame 1.

[0054] Specifically, such as Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the first sensor switch 9 is located on the upper frame 1 at the left end of the conveying assembly 2, and the second sensor switch 10 is located on the upper frame 1 at the right end of the conveying assembly 2. When the sample collection bucket 3 is at the left end (input end) of the conveying assembly 2, the first sensor switch 9 detects the input of the sample collection bucket 3 and starts the conveying assembly 2, that is, starts the conveying component 21 and the pusher assembly, conveying the sample collection bucket 3 to the output end of the conveying assembly 2. Then, the second micro switch 8 detects that the sample collection bucket 3 is located at the output end of the conveying assembly 2. At this time, the unlocking component 5 is activated to unlock the sample collection bucket 3 for subsequent sampling.

[0055] In some embodiments, the sample collection container 3 unlocking device further includes a controller and a wireless transmission module. The controller is connected to the unlocking component 5, the horizontal movement component 4, the first inductive switch 9, and the second inductive switch 10, respectively. For example, the controller is connected to the unlocking component 5 and the second inductive switch 10. When the second inductive switch 10 detects that the sample collection container 3 is located at the output end of the conveying component 2, it activates the unlocking component 5 to unlock the sample collection container 3. Simultaneously, the controller is also connected to a micro switch 8 to determine whether the unlocking claw 523 unlocks the sample collection container 3. The controller controls the unlocking component 5 to move after unlocking to move the container lid 32 onto the lid holder 6. The controller receives data from the first inductive switch 9 to determine whether to activate the conveying component 2. For example, when the sample collection container 3 is conveyed to the input end of the conveying component 2, the first inductive switch 9 detects the input of the sample collection container 3, and the controller controls the conveying component 2 to start, moving the sample collection container 3 to the output end of the conveying component 2 for unlocking. The controller is connected to the wireless transmission module, which can wirelessly connect to the unlocking component 5, the horizontal movement component 4, the first inductive switch 9, and the second inductive switch 10, respectively.
