Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of experimental automation technology, and particularly to the field of automated pipetting workstation technology, specifically referring to a microplate sealing machine that can be adapted to an automated pipetting workstation. Background Technology

[0002] An automated pipetting workstation is a scientific instrument that uses automation technology to perform high-precision liquid handling tasks. Its core functions include gradient dilution, continuous dispensing, and pipetting and mixing. It is widely used in drug development, clinical testing, life sciences and other fields, effectively reducing human error and improving experimental efficiency and data security.

[0003] In automated pipetting workstations, microplate consumables are used extensively during sample testing. Microplates are used to process samples in batches. During transportation and incubation, the microplates must be sealed to ensure the safety and meet experimental requirements.

[0004] The existing microporous plate sealing process involves manually placing the microporous plate on the corresponding sealing device (if it needs to be sealed with tin foil, it is placed on the tin foil sealing device; if it needs to be sealed with pressure-sensitive film, it is placed on the sealing device corresponding to the pressure-sensitive film). This process is cumbersome and can only perform sealing in one direction. It cannot guarantee whether the other two sides of the microporous plate are pressed tightly and sealed.

[0005] Therefore, it is desirable to provide a microplate sealing machine that can be adapted to automated pipetting workstations. This machine can load two different types of film rolls, seal microplates as needed to improve work efficiency, and perform bidirectional sealing to ensure tight and secure sealing, thereby improving work efficiency.

[0025] The main beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0026] This utility model relates to a microplate sealing machine adapted to automated pipetting workstations. Different materials of film can be fitted onto the left and right film placement rollers, enabling sealing with different materials in the left-right direction. Taking the left sealing unit as an example, during sealing, the microplate to be sealed is placed on the microplate placement tray. The microplate is raised and lowered by a lifting device and moved left and right by a tray drive device, raising it to the sealing height. Then it moves to the left until the right edge of the microplate is directly below the left pressure roller. The microplate is then raised again until it touches the foil film at the bottom of the left pressure roller. At this point, the microplate moves to the right while simultaneously winding the back film of the foil film, causing the left pressure roller to rotate counterclockwise in the front-back direction. The pressure roller seals the microperforated plate. After sealing, the left cutting blade is driven by the left cutting drive device to cut the film. After cutting, the microperforated plate is moved to the starting position and then raised to the secondary sealing height. The intermediate pressure roller is driven forward by the intermediate pressure roller drive device to directly above the rear edge of the microperforated plate. The microperforated plate is then raised until it touches the intermediate pressure roller. The intermediate pressure roller is driven forward by the intermediate pressure roller drive device to perform a longitudinal sealing action on the microperforated plate, completing the secondary sealing. Therefore, it can load two different types of film rolls, can seal the microperforated plate as needed, improve work efficiency, and can perform bidirectional sealing to ensure tight sealing, further improving work efficiency and making it suitable for large-scale application.

[0088] With the above configuration, when the connecting plate 504 needs to be moved back and forth by the intermediate pressure roller drive device 506, the transmission gear 508 is driven to rotate horizontally by the intermediate pressure roller drive component 509, so that the transmission rack 507 moves back and forth, thereby driving the connecting plate 504 to move back and forth.

[0089] The intermediate pressure roller drive component 509 can be any suitable drive component. In a specific embodiment of this utility model, the intermediate pressure roller drive component 509 is a drive motor.

The left fixing block 510 and the right fixing block 511 are both located between the left moving plate 502 and the right moving plate 503 and are vertically movably connected to the left moving plate 502 and the right moving plate 503, respectively. The left elastic element 512 and the right elastic element 513 are both vertically arranged. The left elastic element 512 is located between the left fixing block 510 and the connecting plate 504 and is connected to the left fixing block 510 and the connecting plate 504, respectively. The right elastic element 513 is located between the right fixing block 511 and the connecting plate 504 and is connected to the right fixing block 511 and the connecting plate 504, respectively.

[0091] With the above configuration, when the microperforated plate 9 abuts against the intermediate pressure roller 505, pressure is applied to the microperforated plate 9 by the left elastic member 512 and the right elastic member 513, and the microperforated plate 9 can be raised and lowered by the lifting device 402 to adjust the pressure film elasticity.

[0092] The left elastic element 512 and the right elastic element 513 can be any suitable elastic element; please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 17 As shown, in a specific embodiment of this utility model, both the left elastic member 512 and the right elastic member 513 are springs.

[0093] The number of left elastic members 512 and the number of right elastic members 513 can be determined as needed. More preferably, there are multiple left elastic members 512 and multiple right elastic members 513, and the multiple left elastic members 512 and multiple right elastic members 513 are arranged alternately. Please refer to [link to relevant documentation]. Figures 16-17 As shown, in a specific embodiment of this utility model, the number of left elastic members 512 and the number of right elastic members 513 are both two.

[0094] The intermediate pressing unit 5 may also include any other suitable configuration; please refer to [link / reference]. Figures 15-17 As shown, in a specific embodiment of this utility model, the intermediate pressing unit 5 further includes an intermediate guide rod 514. The intermediate guide rod 514 is arranged along the left-right direction and is respectively inserted into the left fixing block 510 and the right fixing block 511 along the left-right direction and is located above the intermediate pressing roller 505. The left end and the right end of the intermediate guide rod 514 are respectively vertically movably disposed in the left moving plate 502 and the right moving plate 503. With the above arrangement, the left fixing block 510 and the right fixing block 511 are guided to move vertically relative to the left moving plate 502 and the right moving plate 503 by the guiding action of the intermediate guide rod 514.

[0095] In this invention, the left film placement roller 202 and the right film placement roller 302 can be fitted with film of different materials, such as... Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 11 As shown, a foil film 6 and a pressure-sensitive film 7 are respectively fitted onto the left film placement roller 202 and the right film placement roller 302. A waste cylinder 8 is fitted onto both the left back film collecting roller 203 and the right back film collecting roller 303. The waste cylinder 8 is used to collect the back film after the film roll is sealed. The free end of the foil film 6 is inclined downwards and to the right from the left film placement roller 202, passing through the left frame 201. Then, it is wound from left to right around the bottom of the left pressure roller 205, with the front facing down. Next, the back film of the free end of the foil film 6 is passed upwards through the left frame 201 and wound onto the left back film collecting roller. On the waste cylinder 8 on 203, the free end of the pressure-sensitive film 7 is inclined downwards and to the right from the right to the left from the right film placement roller 302, and passed into the right frame 301. Then, it is wound from the right side of the right pressure roller 305 from left to right, passing over the bottom of the right pressure roller 305 with the front facing down. Next, the back film of the free end of the pressure-sensitive film 7 is passed through the right frame 301 with the back film facing up and wound onto the waste cylinder 8 on the right back film collection roller 303. Thus, the left sealing unit 2 can seal the foil film 6, and the right sealing unit 3 can seal the pressure-sensitive film 7. The sealing processes of the two are similar. The following describes the working process of this utility model using the sealing of the left sealing unit 2 as an example.

[0096] When sealing the foil film 6, the microperforated plate 9 to be sealed, such as a 96-hole plate, is manually or mechanically placed in the microperforated plate clamping position on the top surface of the microperforated plate placement tray 403. The movable frame 401 is raised by the lifting device 402, which drives the microperforated plate placement tray 403 to rise until the microperforated plate 9 reaches the sealing height (the sealing height is slightly lower than the bottom of the left pressure roller 205) and then stops.

[0097] The micro-perforated plate placement tray 403 is driven to move to the left by the tray drive device 404, which in turn moves the micro-perforated plate 9 to the left until the right edge of the micro-perforated plate 9 is directly below the left pressure roller 205. At this point, there is still a small vertical gap between the micro-perforated plate 9 and the left pressure roller 205. The movable frame 401 is then raised again by the lifting device 402, which in turn raises the micro-perforated plate placement tray 403 until the micro-perforated plate 9 touches the foil film 6 at the bottom of the left pressure roller 205. At this point, the micro-perforated plate placement tray 403 is driven to move to the right by the tray drive device 404, which in turn moves the micro-perforated plate 9 to the right. The left roller drive device 204 synchronously drives the left back film collecting roller 203 to rotate in the front-back direction, which in turn drives the waste material cylinder 8 on it to rotate in the front-back direction, winding the back film of the foil film 6, driving the free end of the foil film 6 to rotate in the front-back direction, driving the left pressure roller 205 to rotate counterclockwise (from the front-back perspective), and sealing the microperforated plate 9 through the left pressure roller 205. After the sealing is completed (i.e., the left edge of the microperforated plate 9 moves directly below the left pressure roller 205), the left film cutting drive device 207 drives the left film cutting blade 206 to move forward and cut the foil film 6.

[0098] After the film cutting is completed, the movable frame 401 is lowered by the lifting device 402, which drives the micro-perforated plate placement tray 403 to descend. Then, the tray driving device 404 drives the micro-perforated plate placement tray 403 to move to the right to the starting position. At this time, the movable frame 401 is raised by the lifting device 402, which drives the micro-perforated plate placement tray 403 to rise until the micro-perforated plate 9 reaches the secondary sealing height (the secondary sealing height is slightly lower than the bottom of the intermediate pressure roller 505) and stops.

[0099] At this time, the connecting plate 504 is driven forward by the intermediate pressure roller drive device 506, and the intermediate pressure roller 505 is driven forward by the left moving plate 502 and the right moving plate 503 until the intermediate pressure roller 505 moves directly above the rear edge of the micro-perforated plate 9 and stops. At this time, there is still a small gap between the micro-perforated plate 9 and the intermediate pressure roller 505 in the vertical direction. The movable frame 401 is raised again by the lifting device 402, which drives the micro-perforated plate placement tray 403 to rise again until the micro-perforated plate 9 touches the intermediate pressure roller 505. The connecting plate 504 is driven forward by the intermediate pressure roller drive device 506, and the intermediate pressure roller 505 is driven forward by the left moving plate 502 and the right moving plate 503 to perform a longitudinal sealing action on the micro-perforated plate 9, completing the secondary pressing.

[0100] Then, the connecting plate 504 is driven to move backward by the intermediate pressure roller drive device 506, and the intermediate pressure roller 505 is driven to move backward by the left moving plate 502 and the right moving plate 503. The movable frame 401 is lowered by the lifting device 402, and the microporous plate placement tray 403 is lowered to the starting position. The sealed microporous plate 9 is taken out manually or by a robot.

[0101] Therefore, by adopting this utility model, two rolls of film of different materials can be placed simultaneously through the left sealing unit and the right sealing unit. The left sealing unit and the right sealing unit can achieve sealing of different materials in the left and right directions. The middle pressing unit can perform secondary pressing on the microporous plate that has been sealed with tin foil film (or pressure-sensitive film) in the front and back directions to achieve a better and tighter sealing state.

[0102] Therefore, this utility model can simultaneously place two different types of film rolls. According to experimental needs, the microplate can be sealed with film rolls of the corresponding materials. Furthermore, the sealing action can be performed in both the long and short sides of the microplate, ensuring that the microplate is completely compacted around its perimeter. This ensures that the sealing process is safe and reliable, without generating unnecessary volatilization or affecting experimental results, thus improving work efficiency.

[0103] In summary, the microplate sealing machine of this utility model, which is compatible with automated pipetting workstations, can load two different types of film rolls, and can seal microplates as needed, improving work efficiency. Moreover, it can perform bidirectional sealing to ensure tight and secure sealing, further enhancing work efficiency, and is suitable for large-scale promotion and application.

[0104] Therefore, it is evident that the objective of this utility model has been fully and effectively achieved. The function and structural principles of this utility model have been demonstrated and explained in the embodiments. Without departing from the stated principles, any modifications can be made to the implementation methods. Therefore, this utility model includes all modified embodiments based on the spirit and scope of the claims.
