[0037] The following will describe in detail the implementation of this application with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments, so that the implementation process of how this application uses technical means to solve technical problems and achieve technical effects can be fully understood and implemented accordingly.
[0038] Please refer to Figures 1 to 5 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides an antibody screening microplate cleaning device, comprising: a cleaning platform 1, an abutment plate 2 for positioning the antibody screening microplate to be cleaned is installed on one side of the top of the cleaning platform 1, a clamping and positioning assembly 3 for cooperating with the abutment plate 2 is installed on the other side of the top of the cleaning platform 1, and a cleaning assembly 4 for cleaning the antibody screening microplate is also installed on the cleaning platform 1.
[0039] By adopting the above technical solution, the convenient positioning structure of the contact plate 2 and the movable clamping plate 3011 can quickly and stably fix the microporous plate, avoiding unevenness and damage caused by displacement during cleaning. The convenient positioning and efficient cleaning greatly shorten the operation time and improve work efficiency. With the help of the electric cylinder 402 to drive the brushing component 4012 and the rinsing component 4013 to move back and forth, combined with the electric push rod 40121, the brushing motor 40122 and the rinsing pump 40131, efficient and thorough rotational brushing and rinsing are achieved, effectively removing residues in the micropores, while ensuring the cleanliness of the microporous plate, avoiding residue interference with subsequent experiments, and ensuring the accuracy and reliability of the experiments.
[0040] In order to achieve initial positioning and support for the antibody screening microplate and provide a basic structure for subsequent clamping and adjustment, in this embodiment: the clamping and positioning component 3 includes a mounting base 301 fixedly connected to the top of the washing table 1, and an adjustable movable clamping plate 3011 is provided on the side of the mounting base 301.
[0041] To achieve precise adjustment of the movable clamping plate 3011 and thus stably clamp the antibody screening microplate, in this embodiment: a threaded seat 302 is fixedly connected to the mounting base 301, and a clamping bolt 3021 for adjusting the movable clamping plate 3011 is threaded onto the threaded seat 302. The end of the clamping bolt 3021 is rotatably connected to the side of the movable clamping plate 3011 via a bearing. By rotating the clamping bolt 3021, under the action of the thread on the threaded seat 302, the clamping bolt 3021 can push the movable clamping plate 3011 to move horizontally, realizing the clamping or loosening operation of the microplate. At the same time, the end of the clamping bolt 3021 is rotatably connected to the movable clamping plate 3011 via the bearing, ensuring that when the clamping bolt 3021 is rotated, the movable clamping plate 3011 will not rotate accordingly, but will only perform a linear movement in the horizontal direction, thus improving the stability and accuracy of clamping.
[0042] To ensure the stability of the movable clamping plate 3011 during movement and prevent it from shifting during movement, in this embodiment, two symmetrically arranged limiting telescopic rods 303 are fixedly connected to the side of the mounting base 301, and the other end of the limiting telescopic rod 303 is fixedly connected to the side of the movable clamping plate 3011. The limiting telescopic rod 303 plays a limiting and guiding role for the movable clamping plate 3011. When the clamping bolt 3021 pushes the movable clamping plate 3011 to move, the limiting telescopic rod 303 will extend and retract accordingly, ensuring that the movable clamping plate 3011 always moves along the predetermined direction, avoiding inaccurate clamping or damage to the micro-perforated plate caused by shifting.
[0043] In order to increase the friction between the movable clamping plate 3011 and the antibody screening microplate, improve the clamping firmness, and prevent scratching the microplate, in this embodiment, a clamping pad 304 is fixedly connected to the side of the movable clamping plate 3011.
[0044] To achieve thorough cleaning of the antibody screening microplate, a movable seat 4011 drives the brushing assembly 4012 and the rinsing assembly 4013 to reciprocate. In this embodiment, the cleaning assembly 4 includes a support base 401 fixedly connected to the top of the cleaning table 1. The side of the support base 401 is provided with a telescopically adjustable movable seat 4011. The brushing assembly 4012 and the rinsing assembly 4013 for cleaning the antibody screening microplate are sequentially installed on the movable seat 4011. An electric cylinder 402 for driving the movable seat 4011 is fixedly connected to the side of the support base 401, and the output end of the electric cylinder 402 is fixedly connected to the side of the movable seat 4011.
[0045] To achieve the washing function of the antibody screening microplate, in this embodiment: the washing assembly 4012 includes an electric push rod 40121 fixedly connected to the movable base 4011. A washing motor 40122 is fixedly connected to the output end of the electric push rod 40121. A cleaning brush 40123 is mounted on the output shaft of the washing motor 40122. The electric push rod 40121 can drive the washing motor 40122 and the cleaning brush 40123 to move up and down, thereby adjusting the distance between the cleaning brush 40123 and the microplate, ensuring that the cleaning brush 40123 can make close contact with the surface of the microplate. The washing motor 40122 drives the cleaning brush 40123 to rotate, washing the surface of the microplate and effectively removing residual substances in the micropores.
[0046] To achieve the rinsing function of the antibody screening microplate, a rinsing pump 40131 delivers cleaning water to a rinsing nozzle 40133 to rinse the microplate. In this embodiment, the rinsing assembly 4013 includes a rinsing pump 40131 fixedly connected to a movable base 4011. A connecting hose 40132 is installed at the bottom of the rinsing pump 40131, and a rinsing nozzle 40133 is installed at the bottom of the connecting hose 40132. The rinsing pump 40131 draws cleaning water from a water source and delivers it to the rinsing nozzle 40133 through the connecting hose 40132. The rinsing nozzle 40133 sprays the cleaning water onto the surface of the microplate at a certain pressure and angle to further remove residual dirt and impurities after brushing, thereby improving the cleaning effect.
[0047] To ensure the relative position between the rinsing nozzle 40133 and the brushing motor 40122 is stable, so that the rinsing and brushing operations can work together to improve cleaning efficiency and quality, in this embodiment: a positioning rod 40134 is fixedly connected to one end of the connecting hose 40132 near the rinsing nozzle 40133, and the side of the positioning rod 40134 is fixedly connected to the side of the brushing motor 40122.
[0048] The working principle of this invention is as follows: First, the antibody screening microplate to be cleaned is placed on the cleaning table 1, with one end abutting against the side of the abutment plate 2. Then, by rotating the clamping bolt 3021, under the action of the threaded seat 302, the clamping bolt 3021 pushes the movable clamping plate 3011 to move horizontally. At the same time, the limiting telescopic rod 303 ensures the stability of the movement of the movable clamping plate 3011, and the clamping pad 304 increases friction and prevents scratching the microplate, ultimately achieving stable clamping and positioning of the microplate. Subsequently, the electric cylinder 402 drives the moving seat 4011 to reciprocate on the side of the support seat 401, driving the brushing assembly 4012 and the rinsing assembly 4013 to move above the microplate. In the brushing assembly 4012, the electric push rod 40121 drives the brushing motor 40122 and the cleaning brush 40123 to move down to a suitable position. The brushing motor 40122 drives the cleaning brush 40123 to rotate and brush the microplate. In the rinsing assembly 4013, the rinsing pump 40131 delivers cleaning water to the rinsing nozzle 40133 through the connecting hose 40132. The rinsing nozzle 40133 rinses the microplate, and the positioning rod 40134 ensures that the rinsing nozzle 40133 and the brushing motor 40122 are relatively stable, realizing the coordinated operation of brushing and rinsing, thereby completing the comprehensive and efficient cleaning of the antibody screening microplate.
