Abstract
An agitator does not require the use of washing water and hence can reduce the cost of analyzing operation. The agitator of an automatic analyzer for automatically feeding a specimen and a reagent into a reaction container, stirring them in the container and carrying out an optical analysis of the specimen is characterized in that it comprises a stirring member staying in the reaction container until an analyzing operation is over.
Description
The present invention relates to a kind of stirrer of automatic analyzer, described automatic analyzer can automatically add sample and reagent in reaction vessel, and in container, stir, then sample is carried out optical analysis, the automatic analyzer that has stirrer of the present invention is applicable to occasions such as biochemical analysis, immunoassay and physicochemical analysis.
In the process of the water of chemical analysis blood, urine or environmental pollution, in order to sieve a large amount of samples, just must stir effectively sample and reagent by the multiple inspection project, their are fully mixed each other.
Japanese Utility Model No.1-31305 announced a kind of general mixer of automatic analyzer, and this stirrer contains a rotating stirring rod and an agitating plate that is fixed on this stirring rod front end.When each stirring operation, stirring rod is inserted in the reaction vessel, stir finish after, just stirring rod is taken out from container so that wash, preparation is used next time again.
Japanese Utility Model No.62-299961 and 63-14904 announced other the stirrer that has stirring rod, when using this class stirrer, also be that stirring rod is inserted in the reaction vessel that fills sample and reagent solution, and according to axial rotation, centrifugal rotation, vertical movement, intermittent exercise and other stirring modes stir.Operation is just taken out stirring rod, and is washed after stirring and finishing, in order to using next time again.
When adopting described any stirrer of above-mentioned Japanese Utility Model No.1-31305,62-29961 and 63-14904, stirring rod all will be washed, and will consume a large amount of slurries in each operation.This washings also must be highly purified, can only could obtain by distillation or double ion exchange process, and this has just improved the cost of analysis operation.
In addition, when washed stirring rod is inserted in the reaction vessel, some water can be brought in the container inevitably, this has just produced the problem of cross pollution, and, reduced the degree of accuracy of test findings owing to the volume that has changed reaction solution.
At last, above-mentioned any general mixer also must be equipped with and drive stirring rod and enter the pump device relevant with other with the mechanism of the mechanism that shifts out reaction vessel, wash agitation rod, sink, pumping washings, thereby the volume of stirrer is increased, and manufacturing cost increases.
Therefore, the problems referred to above and other problems at existing stirrer an object of the present invention is to provide a kind of stirrer that does not need to use washings, therefore can reduce the cost of analysis operation.
Another object of the present invention provides a kind of like this stirrer, promptly, its stirring parts need not to send into and shift out reaction vessel, therefore do not exist because stirring parts is brought the cross-contamination issue that washings produce to the container into, do not have the problem that reduces the degree of accuracy of test findings owing to change reaction solution volume yet.Therefore, the automatic analyzer that has a this stirrer all is highly reliable for any analysis.
A further object of the present invention provides a kind of like this stirrer, and promptly it need not to be equipped with and drives stirring rod and enter the pump device relevant with other with the mechanism of the mechanism that shifts out container, wash agitation rod, sink, pumping washings.Therefore, this stirrer is a compact conformation, and manufacturing cost is also low.
According to the present invention, reach above-mentioned projects by the stirrer that a kind of automatic analyzer is provided, described automatic analyzer can add sample and reagent automatically in reaction vessel, and in container, stir, then sample is carried out optical analysis, above-mentioned stirrer is characterised in that it has a stirring parts, and this stirring parts placed reaction vessel always before analysis operation is finished.
In a most preferred embodiment, stirring parts placed reaction vessel always before reaction vessel is scrapped processing.In another most preferred embodiment, reaction vessel can automatically infeed and scrap.In another most preferred embodiment, stirring parts has the agitating plate that a profile roughly is complementary with the level cross-sectionn of container.In another most preferred embodiment, the agitating plate of stirring parts is provided with the through hole that can allow flow of liquid cross.In yet another embodiment, stirring parts is connected with driving mechanism by an elongated rod member.Preferably, stirring parts is connected with driving mechanism by a plate that extends by the direction of reaction vessel along light beam.Preferably, the stirring parts vertical cross-section that allows to analyze the zone that light beam passes through in reaction vessel is greater than the fair vertical cross-section of analyzing the zone that light beam passes through.Stirring parts preferably has spiral helicine profile.Stirring parts is a vertically disposed flat board preferably, and the zone that this flat board makes the analysis light beam pass through in reaction vessel is provided with several through holes.Preferably, when entering reaction vessel, stirring parts controls its temperature.The stirring operation of stirring parts is preferably undertaken by ultrasonic vibration.Preferably, stirring parts can be controlled stirring operation automatically according to the test event in the analysis cycle.
According to another aspect of the present invention, the stirrer that a kind of automatic analyzer is used has been proposed, described automatic analyzer can add sample and reagent automatically in reaction vessel, and in container, stir, then sample is carried out optical analysis, above-mentioned stirrer is characterised in that it contains a kind of dismountable stirring parts.
The stirrer of automatic analyzer of the present invention, its stirring parts is not washed and reuse, but with after scrapped, so stirrer always is to use new stirring parts.
