Description

Technical Field

[0001] The embodiments of this utility model relate to the field of microbial detection device technology, and more specifically, this utility model relates to a storage structure and a microbial detection device. Background Technology

[0002] Microbial detection devices are used to detect, count, and identify the quantity and type of microorganisms. These high-tech products combine Raman spectroscopy with biology to achieve rapid detection of various airborne viruses. They are widely used in hospitals, schools, airports, conference centers, hotels, research laboratories, public transportation, and other locations for online virus monitoring. The system's advantages include high sensitivity, rapid detection, low cost, low energy consumption, and portability. It can detect a variety of viruses and pathogenic microorganisms.

[0003] This microbial detection device mainly consists of a microbial detection main unit and a housing. The microbial detection main unit primarily comprises a gas sample collection module, a Raman analysis module, and an intelligent control system. The housing is equipped with a storage structure. Under the control of the intelligent control system, the microbial detection device first captures airborne virus or bacteria (microorganism) samples through the gas sample collection module. These samples are then introduced into the Raman analysis module for detection of virus particles. The storage structure stores various reagents, including but not limited to cleaning solution for rinsing the sample tank of the Raman analysis module, and absorption solution to aid the collection module in capturing viruses or bacteria.

[0004] Existing storage structures mainly include compartments, compartment doors, and container assemblies. Container assemblies typically consist of a first container and a second container that are attached to each other and locked together within the compartment. The first and second containers are fixedly installed within the compartment using latches (similar to a knife-switch mechanism). However, this latching method is complex to operate and prone to loosening, resulting in low efficiency in replacing the first and second containers. Furthermore, loosening of either container can easily lead to tilting and leakage. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address one or more of the technical problems mentioned above, this utility model provides a storage structure and a microbial detection device, which not only ensures higher replacement efficiency between the first and second containers, but also prevents the first and second containers from becoming loose and effectively prevents them from tilting and leaking, thus greatly improving the stability and safety of reagents within the storage structure.

[0006] The first aspect of this utility model provides a storage structure for a microbial detection device, comprising:

[0007] The compartment is embedded in the housing of the microbial detection device and opens outward;

[0008] A compartment door is slidably mounted on the housing and used to close the compartment.

[0009] A magnetic attraction assembly, comprising a first magnetic attraction component and a second magnetic attraction component disposed on the bottom wall of the compartment; and

[0010] The container assembly is capable of being placed inside the compartment and includes a first container and a second container that fit together, wherein the first container and the second container have a first magnetic bottom that attracts the first magnetic member and a second magnetic bottom that attracts the second magnetic member.

[0011] Furthermore, both the first magnetic attraction component and the second magnetic attraction component are magnets, magnets, or electromagnets, and both the first magnetic attraction bottom and the second magnetic attraction bottom include magnets, magnets, electromagnets, or structures made of magnetizable materials.

[0012] Furthermore, the container assembly has a rectangular cross-section after the first container and the second container are joined together, and a rectangular groove is provided on the bottom wall of the compartment to accommodate the container assembly. The first magnetic suction member and the second magnetic suction member are located in the bottom of the rectangular groove.

[0013] Furthermore, the first magnetic attraction component and the second magnetic attraction component are embedded in the bottom of the rectangular groove and are configured not to be higher than the bottom of the rectangular groove.

[0014] Furthermore, the storage structure also includes a third container placed inside the compartment, with a first abutment block and a second abutment block provided on the side wall of the compartment. The first abutment block and the second abutment block can clamp the third container when the compartment door is closed.

[0015] Furthermore, the cross-section of the body of the third container is rectangular, the surface of the first abutment block that is used to match and contact the third container is flat, and the surface of the second abutment block that is used to match and contact the third container is also flat.

[0016] Furthermore, the cross-section of the body of the third container is circular, the surface of the first abutment block that is used to match and contact the third container is an arc surface, and the surface of the second abutment block that is used to match and contact the third container is also an arc surface.

[0017] Furthermore, the side wall or bottom wall of the chamber is provided with at least one through hole, through which the first guide pipe, the second guide pipe and the third guide pipe of the microbial detection device pass, so that the first guide pipe, the second guide pipe and the third guide pipe sequentially connect the first container, the second container and the third container to the microbial detection host of the microbial detection device.

[0018] Furthermore, the compartment door is rotatably mounted on the housing via a pivot, and the compartment door is provided with a latch or lock for temporarily locking it in a closed state.

[0019] A second aspect of this invention provides a microbial detection device, which includes the storage structure described above.

[0020] The aforementioned storage structure and its included microbial detection device cleverly incorporate magnetic technology. Through first and second magnetic components located on the bottom wall of the compartment, a stable adsorption is achieved on the bottoms of the first and second containers (correspondingly equipped with first and second magnetic bottoms). This ensures that once the first and second containers are placed in the compartment, they are immediately and continuously locked firmly in a preset position, maintaining a tight fit. Compared to traditional locking mechanisms, magnetic fixation ensures higher replacement efficiency for the first and second containers, prevents them from loosening, and effectively prevents tilting and leakage, significantly improving the stability and safety of reagents within the storage structure.

[0031] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this disclosure will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this disclosure. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this disclosure without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this disclosure.

[0032] Figure 1 The storage structure and architectural diagram of the microbial detection device provided in this embodiment are shown. Figure 2 The storage structure and cross-sectional view of the microbial detection device provided in this embodiment are shown. Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, this embodiment provides a storage structure for a microbial detection device, which includes a compartment 1, a door 2, a magnetic assembly 3, and a container assembly 4. The compartment 1 is embedded in the housing of the microbial detection device and opens outward, i.e., the compartment 1 is formed by the housing and the opening faces outward. The door 2 is slidably disposed on the housing and used to close the compartment 1. As an example, the door 2 can be disposed on the housing by means of snap-fit ​​or latch connection, so that it can be opened and closed freely. The magnetic assembly 3 includes a first magnetic member 31 and a second magnetic member 32 disposed on the bottom wall of the compartment 1. The container assembly 4 can be inserted into the compartment 1 and includes a first container 41 and a second container 42 that fit together, and the first container 41 and the second container 42 have a first magnetic bottom 411 that attracts the first magnetic member 31 and a second magnetic bottom 421 that attracts the second magnetic member 32, respectively.

[0033] The aforementioned storage structure and its included microbial detection device cleverly incorporate magnetic attraction technology. Through the first magnetic attraction component 31 and the second magnetic attraction component 32 located on the bottom wall of the chamber 1, a stable adsorption is achieved on the bottoms of the first container 41 and the second container 42 (correspondingly equipped with a first magnetic attraction bottom 411 and a second magnetic attraction bottom 421). This ensures that after the first container 41 and the second container 42 are placed into the chamber 1, they are immediately and continuously locked firmly in a preset position, maintaining a tight fit between them. Compared with traditional locking mechanisms, magnetic attraction ensures higher replacement efficiency for the first container 41 and the second container 42, prevents them from loosening, and effectively prevents them from tilting and leaking, greatly improving the stability and safety of reagents within the storage structure.

[0034] In this embodiment, the first container 41 and the second container 42 are roughly constructed in the shape of triangular prisms, that is, the cross-sections of the first container 41 and the second container 42 are both right-angled triangles, and the side slope of the first container 41 (i.e. the surface where the hypotenuse of the aforementioned right-angled triangle is located) and the side slope of the second container 42 are in a state of mutual contact.

[0035] In this embodiment, both the first magnetic suction component 31 and the second magnetic suction component 32 are magnets, magnets, or electromagnets, and both the first magnetic suction bottom 411 and the second magnetic suction bottom 421 include magnets, magnets, electromagnets, or structures made of magnetizable materials (such as iron, cobalt, or nickel). In this way, the first container 41 and the second container 42 can be quickly and stably fixed in the compartment 1 by magnetic attraction, greatly improving operational efficiency and convenience.

[0036] Figure 3 This diagram illustrates the architecture of the microbial detection device without the door 2 provided in this embodiment. Figure 4 This diagram illustrates the architecture of a microbial detection device provided in this embodiment, without the door 2, first container 41, second container 42, and third container 43. Figure 3 and Figure 4 and combined Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the container assembly 4 has a rectangular cross-section after the first container 41 and the second container 42 are assembled together. A rectangular groove 11 is provided on the bottom wall of the compartment 1 to accommodate the container assembly 4. The first magnetic suction member 31 and the second magnetic suction member 32 are located in the bottom of the rectangular groove 11. The rectangular groove 11 can position the first container 41 and the second container 42 when they are placed, so that they are placed in the compartment 1 in a close fit. On the other hand, the rectangular groove 11 can also limit the first container 41 and the second container 42, thereby cooperating with the first magnetic suction member 31 and the second magnetic suction member 32 to improve the stability of the first container 41 and the second container 42 when they are confined in the compartment 1.

[0037] Furthermore, the first magnetic suction component 31 and the second magnetic suction component 32 are embedded in the bottom of the rectangular groove 11 and are set not higher than the bottom of the rectangular groove 11, so as to ensure that the rectangular groove 11 can play the role of positioning and limiting the first container 41 and the second container 42.

[0038] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 and combined Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the storage structure also includes a third container 43 inserted into the compartment 1 to hold more types of reagents. A first abutment block 12 is provided on the inner wall of the door 2, and a second abutment block 13 is provided on the side wall of the compartment 1. The first abutment block 12 and the second abutment block 13 can clamp the third container 43 when the door 2 is closed, so that the third container 43 can be stably confined in the compartment 1.

[0039] As a preferred example, the volume of the third container 43 is greater than the sum of the volumes of the first container 41 and the second container 42, and the user can select the appropriate container according to the number of reagent types.

[0040] The cross-section of the body of the third container 43 provided in this embodiment can be rectangular. The first abutment block 12 is used to match the surface of the third container 43, which is a plane. The second abutment block 13 is also used to match the surface of the third container 43, which is also a plane, so as to achieve the purpose of clamping the third container 43.

[0041] The cross-section of the body of the third container 43 provided in this embodiment can also be circular. The surface of the first abutment block 12 that is used to match and contact the third container 43 is an arc surface, and the surface of the second abutment block 13 that is used to match and contact the third container 43 is also an arc surface. Compared with the method of clamping the third container 43 by contacting in a planar manner, the arc-shaped contact can not only achieve the purpose of clamping the third container 43, but also restrict the third container 43 from sliding in any horizontal direction.

[0042] Preferably, at least one through hole is provided on the side wall or bottom wall of the chamber 1, through which the first guide tube, the second guide tube and the third guide tube of the microbial detection device pass, so that the first guide tube, the second guide tube and the third guide tube sequentially connect the first container 41, the second container 42 and the third container 43 to the microbial detection host of the microbial detection device, thereby allowing the reagents in the first container 41, the second container 42 and the third container 43 to flow smoothly into the microbial detection host, so as to ensure the normal operation of the microbial detection host.

[0043] Preferably, the door 2 is rotatably mounted on the housing via a pivot, and the door 2 is provided with a buckle or latch for temporarily locking it in a closed state, so that it can be opened and closed on the housing and can seal the compartment 1. The door 2 being rotatably mounted on the housing via a pivot can also avoid the cumbersome disassembly and assembly process of the disassembly door 2.

[0044] This embodiment also provides a microbial detection device, which includes the storage structure described above.
