Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of biochemical testing equipment, specifically to a consumables storage operating mechanism and a consumables storage. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, many diseases in clinical practice rely on in vitro diagnostic equipment for diagnosis. In vitro diagnostics plays a crucial role in the entire process of disease prevention, diagnosis, monitoring, and guiding treatment, making it an indispensable tool for doctors. This necessitates automated consumable storage systems for storing, replacing, and inputting / outputting batches of samples to improve testing efficiency and ensure consumables are not contaminated. For example, during batch biochemical testing of blood samples, new racks containing cryopreservation tubes need to be removed from the consumable storage system for the extraction of PBMCs, plasma, and red blood cells, involving multiple testing steps such as sample separation, storage, recording, and management. Afterward, the old racks are returned to the consumable storage system.

[0003] In the prior art, to achieve automated processing of consumables in a consumables warehouse, patent application CN212711028U discloses a consumables feeding system, which includes: a storage rack, including a hopper, the hopper having multiple layers of racks stacked vertically, each rack for holding consumables; multiple hoppers; the storage rack also includes a turntable, multiple hoppers fixed on the turntable; a first rotating mechanism is provided on the side of the turntable away from the storage rack, the first rotating mechanism is used to control the rotation of the turntable so that different hoppers on the turntable are aligned with a robotic arm device. The robotic arm device grips the consumables located in the rack, places the consumables on a discharge tray, and removes them from the consumables feeding system. However, for example, the circular consumable tower in the above-mentioned prior art, in the process of sample storage and retrieval, it is necessary to rotate the consumable tower to the position of the robotic arm device used for loading and unloading samples, so that the robotic arm can remove consumables or samples from the consumable tower, or put consumables or samples back into the consumable tower. This results in several issues: existing circular consumable storage towers not only occupy a large volume but also have a limited capacity for storing consumables and samples. Furthermore, each replenishment and retrieval of consumables and samples requires controlling the rotation angle of the tower to process the consumables on the corresponding stack, leading to slow retrieval efficiency and time-consuming and labor-intensive replenishment processes. Therefore, those skilled in the art urgently need a new consumable storage mechanism that can effectively improve the efficiency of consumable and sample replacement, achieving high-efficiency, large-capacity, and automated storage and loading / unloading of consumables and samples.

[0062] 1. The consumables storage operating mechanism provided by this utility model features a stationary consumables storage rack, significantly different from the circular consumables towers in the prior art that rotate along their circumference. To facilitate the movement of materials at different positions on the consumables storage rack, this utility model employs a first conveying structure that drives lifting to adapt to consumables storage racks of varying heights. A second conveying structure drives a transport platform to extend and retract along the X' axis, thereby moving the material rack into or out of the consumables storage rack. A third conveying structure drives a transport platform to extend and retract along the Y' axis, thereby moving the material rack into or out of the rack's cavity. Through the coordinated first, second, and third conveying structures, the mechanism effectively ensures that materials at different positions on the consumables storage rack can be moved in or out of the rack while it remains stationary.

[0063] 2. The consumables warehouse operating mechanism provided by this utility model further includes a rotating structure. This rotating structure can drive the transport platform to rotate in the S-axis direction, thereby changing the orientation of the transport platform and thus enabling the transport of consumables warehouse racks at different positions.

[0064] 3. The consumables storage operating mechanism provided by this utility model slides the X'-axis support arm onto the Z-axis lifting slide on the lifting bracket, thereby enabling the entire second conveying structure to lift and lower, completing the movement of the transport platform in the X'-axis direction. Furthermore, the transport platform is configured as a sliding upper base and a lower base, allowing the upper base to slide along the Y'-axis direction via the third conveying structure, thus completing the movement of the transport platform in the Y'-axis direction. Moreover, the transport platform is slidably mounted on the X'-axis support arm via a sliding member, and a rotating structure drives the entire transport platform to rotate along the S-axis direction. By sliding the transport platform and the rotating structure that drives the transport platform to rotate along the S-axis direction onto the X'-axis support arm via the aforementioned sliding member, multi-directional and arbitrary angle movement of the transport platform can be achieved simply and reliably, offering the advantages of simple and reliable structure.

[0065] 3. The consumables storage operating mechanism provided by this utility model, in which the third conveying structure realizes the movement of the upper base relative to the lower base through mutually cooperating guide teeth and rotating gears, not only can high-precision positional movement be achieved, but also the guide teeth and rotating gears can be respectively placed in the slotted holes of the upper base, effectively reducing the thickness of the conveying platform.

[0066] 4. The consumables warehouse operating mechanism provided by this utility model has mutually compatible positioning pins and positioning holes on the transport platform and the material rack respectively. During the process of the transport platform lifting or transferring the material rack, the positioning pins and positioning holes are connected by insertion to fix the material rack in position.

[0067] 5. The consumables storage unit provided by this utility model includes: a consumables storage unit operating mechanism. Therefore, it possesses all the advantages of the aforementioned consumables storage unit operating mechanism.

[0068] 6. The consumables warehouse provided by this utility model, by setting up front and rear shelves, allows for adjustment of the dimensions of the front and rear shelves according to space requirements, improving their adaptability to space and thus achieving the technical effect of improving space utilization. Simultaneously, by placing the consumables warehouse operating mechanism between the front and rear shelves, the mechanism can move material racks into or out of either shelf. Specifically, it can move racks to the desired location or move racks from the front shelf to the rear shelf, eliminating the need for manual labor and improving the reliability of material rack handling.

[0069] 7. The consumables storage unit provided by this utility model can indicate to the operator whether there are material racks in the rack cavity through status indicator lights. In addition, the category indicator lights can indicate to the operator the type of material rack in the rack cavity, specifically whether it is a new material rack or an old material rack.

[0070] 8. The consumables warehouse provided by this utility model further includes: a loading and unloading conveying mechanism. By setting the loading and unloading conveying mechanism on the work platform, new material racks transported by the consumables warehouse operating mechanism are received. Then, the material racks are transferred to different specific positions on the work platform via the transfer rails on the loading and unloading conveying mechanism. The above structure can effectively transfer material racks to different sample processing modules, thereby solving the problem of low work efficiency caused by the material racks in the prior art needing to pass through each sample processing module sequentially before reaching the corresponding sample processing station.

[0071] 9. The consumables warehouse provided by this utility model also includes: an information entry mechanism. The information entry mechanism can effectively record consumables and sample information on old and new material shelves.

[0072] 10. The consumables warehouse provided by this utility model has an extension end extending beyond the work platform in the transfer rail of the loading and unloading mechanism. By setting the information input platform of the information input mechanism below the extension end, the work platform can be prevented from obstructing the loading and unloading mechanism from completing the material rack transportation work.

If a power outage or other abnormality occurs during equipment operation, and the equipment restarts, the photoelectric switch sensor determines that there is a material rack 2 on the transport platform 1, then a system error can be reported or the material rack 2 can be returned to an idle position on the consumables warehouse rack 3, thereby avoiding collisions caused by the third transport structure 7 driving the upper base 13 to perform the operation of retrieving the material rack 2 when it is placed there.

[0111] Example 2

[0112] See Figure 9 , Figure 9 This illustration shows a schematic diagram of the relative positions of the consumables storage operating mechanism and the loading / unloading conveying mechanism on the work platform provided in this embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, the consumables storage includes: the consumables storage operating mechanism 24 described in Embodiment 1; and a consumables storage rack 3, wherein the consumables storage rack 3 is provided with multiple rack cavities, the rack cavities being used to accommodate racks 2 for placing test tubes and / or gun tips and / or cryopreservation tubes, etc.

[0113] See Figure 10 The diagram shows the X', Y', and Z' axis directions of the front and rear shelves of the consumables storage area. The consumables storage shelf 3 includes:

[0114] The consumables storage front shelf 25 is located on one side of the consumables storage operating mechanism 24 in the Y' axis direction; the consumables storage front shelf 25 is provided with a plurality of shelf cavities along the X' axis and Z' axis directions of the consumables storage shelf 3;

[0115] The consumables storage rear rack 26 is located on the other side of the consumables storage operating mechanism 24 in the Y' axis direction; the consumables storage operating mechanism 24 is located between the consumables storage front rack 25 and the consumables storage rear rack 26; the consumables storage rear rack 26 is provided with a plurality of rack cavities along the X' axis and Z' axis directions of the consumables storage rack 3;

[0116] Specifically, see Figure 5 The diagram shows the position of the transport platform of the consumables warehouse operating mechanism facing the front shelf of the consumables warehouse. See also... Figure 8 The diagram shows the position where the transport platform of the consumables warehouse operating mechanism extends towards the rear shelf of the consumables warehouse. (See attached diagram.) Figure 7 The diagram shows a three-dimensional structural representation of the transport platform of the consumables storage operating mechanism in its initial position. The rotating structure 8 includes a drive shaft 19 and a fourth drive source 20. The transport platform 1 has a first rotational position towards the front shelf 25 of the consumables storage. This first rotational position is achieved by rotating the transport platform 1 90 degrees clockwise along the S-axis towards the front shelf 25 of the consumables storage, driven by the drive shaft 19. (See attached diagram). Figure 2 The conveying platform 1 shown is along Figure 2 The S-axis is rotated 90 degrees clockwise, so that the material rack 2 on the handling platform 1 faces the direction of the material rack 2. Figure 10 The front shelf 25 of the consumables storage unit is shown. Furthermore, the transport platform 1 also has a second rotational position toward the rear shelf 26 of the consumables storage unit. This second rotational position is achieved by rotating the transport platform 1 90 degrees counterclockwise in the S-axis direction toward the rear shelf 26 of the consumables storage unit, driven by the drive shaft 19. See [reference needed]. Figure 2 The conveying platform 1 shown is along Figure 2 The S-axis is rotated 90 degrees counterclockwise, so that the material rack 2 on the handling platform 1 faces the direction of the material rack 2. Figure 10 The consumables warehouse rear shelf 26 is shown. Furthermore, the initial position described above is such that the length direction of the transport platform 1 is in the same direction as the X' axis.

[0117] In a variable embodiment, three or more consumable storage racks may be provided, arranged in an arc shape. The rotating structure 8 can be rotated to different specific angles as needed to face different consumable storage racks, and then the upper base 13 is driven to extend and retract relative to the lower base 14 by the third conveying structure 7 to complete the transfer of the material rack 2.

[0118] Material handling mechanism 32, see reference Figure 12 and Figure 13 As shown, Figure 12 The diagram shows a three-dimensional structural schematic of a material handling mechanism carrying a material rack. Figure 13 The diagram shows a three-dimensional structure of the loading and unloading conveying mechanism. The loading and unloading conveying mechanism 32 is configured in conjunction with the consumables storage operating mechanism 24. The transfer slide rail 34 of the loading and unloading conveying mechanism 32 is arranged along the X' axis on the working platform 33. The working platform 33 is used for processing samples. The loading and unloading conveying mechanism 32 is used to receive new material racks 30 transported by the consumables storage operating mechanism 24 and transfer them to different areas of the working platform 33, or the loading and unloading conveying mechanism 32 is used to transfer old material racks 31 from different areas of the working platform 33 to the consumables storage operating mechanism 24.

[0119] Specifically, the loading and unloading conveying mechanism 32 includes: a transfer slide rail 34, a timing belt 35, and a loading and unloading fixing frame 36 slidably disposed on the transfer slide rail 34; the loading and unloading fixing frame 36 is connected to the timing belt 35 for transmission, and the timing belt 35 drives the loading and unloading fixing frame 36 to reciprocate on the transfer slide rail 34 under the drive of the driving source.

[0120] In a preferred embodiment, see [reference] Figure 11 The diagram shows an enlarged view of the cavity structure located on the consumables warehouse rack. The rack cavity is also equipped with a guide groove 27 for guiding the material rack 2, supported by the transport platform 1, to slide into or out of the rack cavity. The guide groove 27 effectively guides the material rack 2 to a designated position and limits and fixes it in place.

[0121] In a preferred embodiment, see [reference] Figure 11The diagram shows an enlarged view of the cavity structure located on the consumables shelf. A second position detector 28 is also provided within the shelf cavity to detect whether the material rack 2 is contained within it. A status indicator light 29 is also provided on the outer frame of the shelf cavity to indicate whether the material rack 2 is contained within it. A category indicator light is also provided on the outer frame of the shelf cavity to indicate the type of material rack 2 within it. The material rack 2 includes: a new material rack 30 and an old material rack 31. Of course, in this embodiment, the type of indicator light on the outer frame of the shelf cavity is not specifically limited. In other embodiments, the outer frame of the shelf cavity only has a status indicator light 29 to indicate whether the material rack 2 is contained within it. Alternatively, the outer frame of the shelf cavity only has a category indicator light to indicate the type of material rack 2 within it.

[0122] Specifically, each rack cavity is equipped with a photoelectric switch and its status light. The photoelectric switch detects whether each rack cavity is carrying a material rack and sends feedback to the control system. The status light can display one or more light colors, such as red and / or off and / or yellow and / or green. For example, a red and / or off status light indicates that the rack station is missing a material rack. A yellow status light indicates that the rack station has an old material rack or a material rack carrying products. A green status light indicates that the rack station has a new material rack and contains new consumables or new samples.

[0123] In a preferred embodiment, such as Figure 14 and Figure 15 The diagram shows a three-dimensional structure of a consumables warehouse with an information entry mechanism. The consumables warehouse also includes an information entry mechanism 37, which records information about consumables and samples transported by the loading / unloading conveying mechanism 32 on the material rack 2. The consumables warehouse operating mechanism 24 moves a new material rack 30 transported from the consumables warehouse material rack 3 to the information entry mechanism 37 for information recording, or the consumables warehouse operating mechanism 24 moves an old material rack 31 transferred by the loading / unloading conveying mechanism 32 to the information entry mechanism 37 for information recording.

[0124] Specifically, the transfer slide rail 34 of the loading and unloading conveying mechanism 32 faces the consumable storage rack 3 and has an extension end extending beyond the work platform 33. By setting the information input table 38 of the information input mechanism 37 below this extension end, the work platform 33 can be prevented from obstructing the loading and unloading conveying mechanism 32 from completing the material rack 2 transport operation. The information input mechanism 37 includes: an information input table 38 located below or above the extension end, and a barcode scanner located below the information input table 38, which inputs information for consumables and samples.

[0125] Of course, this embodiment does not specifically limit the location of the barcode scanner. In other embodiments, the barcode scanner may also be located above and / or to the side of the information entry station 38.

[0126] Specifically, the consumables library also includes a consumables library control panel 41, which is used to query the status of consumables, samples and material racks in the consumables library rack 3, and display the quantity information of consumables and samples; and information can also be updated through the consumables library control panel 41.

[0127] In a preferred embodiment, see [reference] Figure 16 The diagram shows the installation position of the outer casing of the consumables storage unit. The consumables storage unit also includes an outer casing 39 for accommodating the consumables storage unit operating mechanism 24 and the consumables storage unit rack 3; the outer casing 39 has an opening on the side facing the loading and unloading conveying mechanism 32 for the material rack 2 to be moved out.

[0128] In a preferred embodiment, such as Figure 12 and Figure 13 The diagram shows a three-dimensional structure of the loading and unloading conveying mechanism 32. The loading and unloading conveying mechanism 32 further includes a third position detector 40; the third position detector 40 is disposed on the transfer slide rail 34, near the side of the loading and unloading conveying mechanism 32, and is used to detect whether the loading and unloading fixing frame 36, which carries the material rack 2, has moved to a preset position. Furthermore, the loading and unloading fixing frame 36 is also provided with a fourth position detector 42 for detecting whether a material rack 2 is placed on the loading and unloading fixing frame 36. In a preferred embodiment, a fourth position detector 42 is respectively provided on the loading and unloading fixing frame 36 at the workstations for accommodating the old material rack 31 and the new material rack 30. This fourth position detector 42 is a photoelectric position sensor.

[0129] A method of using a consumables warehouse includes: a process of replacing consumables and samples in the consumables warehouse rack 3; a process of transferring a new material rack 30 in the consumables warehouse rack 3 to a loading and unloading conveying mechanism 32; and a process of transferring an old material rack 31 from the loading and unloading conveying mechanism 32 to the consumables warehouse rack 3.

[0130] 1. The process for replacing consumables and samples in consumables shelf 3 includes the following steps:

[0131] Open the consumables warehouse door of the consumables warehouse rack 3 and place the new material rack 30 containing replenished consumables and samples into the rack cavity of the consumables warehouse rack 3; and / or, remove the old material rack 31 containing products and old consumables from the rack cavity of the consumables warehouse rack 3.

[0132] The consumables warehouse operating mechanism 24 is driven to automatically move the new material rack 30 and / or the old material rack 31 in the consumables warehouse rack 3 into the designated rack cavity;

[0133] 2. The process of transferring the new material rack 30 in the consumables warehouse rack 3 to the loading and unloading conveying mechanism 32 includes the following steps:

[0134] If the first position detector 23 detects that no material rack 2 is placed on the transport platform 1, the transport platform 1 is driven to rotate to the initial position by the rotating structure 8; the initial position is when the length direction of the transport platform 1 is in the same direction as the X' axis; if the first position detector 23 detects that a material rack 2 is placed on the transport platform 1, the material rack 2 is transported first.

[0135] The transport platform 1 on the consumables warehouse operating mechanism 24 moves to the designated position along the lifting bracket 4 under the drive of the first transport structure 5;

[0136] The transport platform 1 on the consumables warehouse operating mechanism 24, driven by the second transport structure 6, moves along the X' axis support arm 11 to the consumables warehouse rack 3, corresponding to the position of the new material rack 30 that needs to be transported;

[0137] The transport platform 1 on the consumables warehouse operating mechanism 24 is driven by the rotating structure 8 to rotate to face the new material rack 30;

[0138] Driven by the third conveying structure 7, the upper base 13 of the transport platform 1 on the consumables warehouse operating mechanism 24 slides along the Y' axis to a position below the new material rack 30; the first motion structure 5 drives the transport platform 1 to slowly rise a certain distance, and the upper base 13 engages with the new material rack 30 during the rising process; specifically including: see reference Figure 6 The transport platform 1 on the consumables warehouse operating mechanism 24, driven by the third transport structure 7, slides along the Y' axis into the rack cavity of the rear rack 26 of the consumables warehouse. (See reference...) Figure 5The transport platform 1 on the consumables warehouse operating mechanism 24, driven by the third transport structure 7, slides its upper base 13 along the Y' axis into the shelf cavity of the front shelf 25 of the consumables warehouse. Then, as... Figure 6 As shown, the conveying platform 1, driven by the third conveying structure 7, removes the new material rack 30 from the rack cavity; and, referring to... Figure 7 The diagram shows a three-dimensional view of the transport platform of the consumables storage operating mechanism in its initial position. The transport platform 1 rotates along the S-axis to the initial position under the drive of the consumables storage transport mechanism 24.

[0139] The transport platform 1 carrying the new material rack 30 moves the new material rack 30 out of the consumables warehouse rack 3 by the first transport structure 5 and the second transport structure 6; after the consumables warehouse operating mechanism 24 moves the new material rack 30 out of the rack cavity, the status indicator light 29 on the outer frame of the rack cavity indicates that there is no material rack 2 in the rack cavity.

[0140] The consumables warehouse operating mechanism 24 moves the new material rack 30 sequentially to the information entry mechanism 37 and the loading / unloading conveying mechanism 32; or, the consumables warehouse operating mechanism 24 directly transfers the new material rack 30 to the loading / unloading conveying mechanism 32.

[0141] The loading and unloading conveying mechanism 32 is driven to move the new material rack 30 to a designated position on the working platform 33, thereby completing the conveying work of the new material rack 30;

[0142] 3. The process of transferring the old material rack 31 from the loading and unloading conveying mechanism 32 to the consumables warehouse rack 3 includes the following steps:

[0143] The loading and unloading conveying mechanism 32 is driven to move the old material rack 31 to a position close to the consumables warehouse operating mechanism 24;

[0144] Driven by the third conveying structure 7, the upper base 13 of the consumables warehouse operating mechanism 24 slides along the Y' axis to a position below the old material rack 31; the first motion structure 5 drives the conveying platform 1 to slowly rise a certain distance, and the upper base 13 engages with the new material rack 30 during the rising process.

[0145] The consumables storage operating mechanism 24 moves the old material rack 31 sequentially to the information entry mechanism 37 and the consumables storage rack 3; or, the consumables storage operating mechanism 24 directly transfers the old material rack 31 to the consumables storage rack 3. The transfer of the old material rack 31 to the consumables storage rack 3 by the consumables storage operating mechanism 24 includes the following specific steps: If the first position detector 23 detects that no material rack 2 is placed on the transport platform 1, the transport platform 1 is driven to rotate to its initial position by the rotating structure 8; then, under the drive of the first transport structure 5 and the second transport structure 6, the transport platform 1 on the consumables storage operating mechanism 24 moves along the Z' axis and X' axis to the corresponding empty material rack cavity inlet position; if the first position detector 23 detects that a material rack 2 is placed on the transport platform 1, the material rack 2 is transported first.

[0146] When the first position detector 23 detects that no material rack 2 is placed on the transport platform 1, the transport platform 1 is driven to rotate toward the inlet direction of the material rack cavity by the rotating structure 8;

[0147] Driven by the third conveying structure 7, the transport platform 1 on the consumables warehouse operating mechanism 24 carries the used material rack 31 on its upper base 13, which is then moved into the rack cavity. The first motion structure 5 drives the transport platform 1 to slowly descend a certain distance, during which the used material rack 31 engages within the rack cavity. Subsequently, the transport platform 1 is driven to move out of the rack cavity, completing the transport of the used material rack 31. After the consumables warehouse operating mechanism 24 moves the used material rack 31 into the designated rack cavity, the status indicator light 29 on the outer frame of the rack cavity indicates that the rack 2 is present in the rack cavity; the category indicator light on the outer frame of the rack cavity indicates that the type of rack 2 in the rack cavity is the used material rack 31. Of course, in this embodiment, the type of indicator light on the outer frame of the material rack cavity is not specifically limited. In other embodiments, the outer frame of the material rack cavity is provided with only one of the status indicator light 29 and the category indicator light, or the outer frame is not provided with either the status indicator light 29 or the category indicator light.

[0148] Specifically, during the use of the aforementioned consumables warehouse, after the consumables warehouse operating mechanism 24 moves the new material rack 30 or the old material rack 31 into the information entry mechanism 37, the barcode scanners around the information entry station 38 of the information entry mechanism 37 enter information on the consumables and samples.

[0149] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely illustrative examples for clear explanation and are not intended to limit the implementation. Those skilled in the art will recognize that other variations or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively list all possible implementations here. However, obvious variations or modifications derived therefrom are still within the protection scope of this invention.
