Description
本發明是有關於一種檢體檢測的設備,特別是指一種用於檢體檢測的處理設備及識別方法。 The present invention relates to a sample detection device, in particular to a processing device and an identification method for sample detection.
眾所皆知,不論是生化實驗或是基因實驗,都需先行採集檢體做為進一步檢測之用。舉例而言,醫療院所或研究機構對於受測者的檢測,必須先行抽血取得檢體,將血液檢體置於反應管,依據不同的檢測專案加入試劑反應後而取得檢測結果。 As we all know, whether it is biochemical experiments or genetic experiments, samples must be collected for further testing. For example, medical institutions or research institutions must first draw blood to obtain a sample, put the blood sample in a reaction tube, and add reagents according to different testing projects to obtain the test results.
現今的檢測方法主要是利用人工配合檢測實驗設備達成。具體而言,在檢體加入試劑反應前,檢體和試劑必須先進行身分辨識,其中用於存放檢體的試管是直接用筆等書寫記號標記或採用條碼(例如,一維條碼)黏貼的方式作為試管的身分辨識。藉由肉眼判別或掃描條碼獲取該試管的相關資料,其包括待檢測項目及受測者的識別資料等。檢體取得後存放於相對應的試管,並將該試管容置在試管架上。然而,為配合高通量或自動化的檢驗,試管必須按照預定位置容置在試管架上。由於試管是經由人工放置於試管架,且必須謹慎的按照預定位置對應放置,其所需過程不僅花費時間,大幅降低檢測效率,更容易因為人工作業而增加位置錯放的風險。一旦試管在試管架的位置不正確,會造成儀器無法識別或識別錯誤而導致系統將停止運作,最終產生無效的實驗結果,增 加檢測或實驗成本。此外,傳統檢測過程是逐一針對每一試管進行辨識,在需要對大量檢體的檢測更是耗費時間。 Today's detection methods are mainly achieved by manual cooperation with detection experimental equipment. Specifically, before the sample is added to the reagent for reaction, the sample and the reagent must be identified first, wherein the test tube used to store the sample is directly marked with a pen or other writing marks or pasted with a barcode (for example, a one-dimensional barcode). way as the identity of the test tube. The relevant information of the test tube is obtained by identifying the test tube with the naked eye or scanning the barcode, including the item to be tested and the identification data of the test subject. After the specimen is obtained, it is stored in the corresponding test tube, and the test tube is accommodated on the test tube rack. However, to accommodate high-throughput or automated testing, the test tubes must be accommodated in a test tube rack in a predetermined position. Since the test tubes are manually placed in the test tube rack and must be placed in the predetermined positions carefully, the required process not only takes time, but also greatly reduces the detection efficiency, and is more likely to increase the risk of misplacement due to manual operations. Once the position of the test tube in the test tube rack is incorrect, it will cause the instrument to fail to recognize or recognize the error, which will cause the system to stop working, and eventually produce invalid experimental results. plus testing or experimental costs. In addition, the traditional detection process is to identify each test tube one by one, which is time-consuming when the detection of a large number of specimens is required.

本實施例使用時,該連接桿22b先移動至試管架4的上方,並取出一整排試管3。之後,該連接桿22b依據一預設移動方向移動於該作業區11上方至一預定位置,其靠近於該作業平台1另一側的該多個讀取探頭21,其中該信息傳遞路徑P1位於該預定位置與該多個讀取探頭21之間。該被提取的試管3分別靠近所對應的讀取探頭21,並通過該信息傳遞路徑P1與試管3的電子標籤5電磁耦合,進而利用讀取探頭21對電子標籤5進行識別,其達到的功效與第一實施例及第二實施例相同。
When using this embodiment, the connecting
本發明另外提供一種用於檢體檢測的處理方法。圖13為使用本發明之用於檢體檢測的處理方法之一實施例的方法流程圖。本發明的處理方法包括如下步驟:步驟S10:在試管上設置一電子標籤,並將該試管容置於試管架的容置孔,其中該電子標籤儲存有關該檢體檢測的基本資料;步驟S20:提供一處理設備,其包括一作業平台及一標籤辨讀裝置,其中該作業平台包括一用於放置該試管架的作業區,且該試管架的上方定義有信息傳遞路徑,該標籤辨讀裝置設於該作業平台上,並包括分別朝向該作業區設置的多個讀取探頭;步驟S30:將容置有該試管的試管架朝該標籤辨讀裝置的方向移動,或將該標籤辨讀裝置朝該試管架的方向移動,使該信息傳遞路徑接近該多個讀取探頭的周圍;及步驟S40:任一該多個讀取探頭通過該信息傳遞路徑與該試管的電子標籤電磁耦合。 The present invention further provides a processing method for specimen detection. FIG. 13 is a method flow diagram of one embodiment of a processing method for specimen detection using the present invention. The processing method of the present invention includes the following steps: Step S10: setting an electronic label on the test tube, and accommodating the test tube in the accommodating hole of the test tube rack, wherein the electronic label stores basic information about the detection of the specimen; Step S20 : Provide a processing equipment, which includes a working platform and a label reading device, wherein the working platform includes a working area for placing the test tube rack, and an information transmission path is defined above the test tube rack, and the label is read. The device is set on the working platform, and includes a plurality of reading probes respectively set towards the working area; Step S30: Move the test tube rack containing the test tube toward the direction of the label reading device, or the label is identified. The reading device is moved toward the direction of the test tube rack, so that the information transmission path is close to the surroundings of the plurality of reading probes; and Step S40: any of the plurality of reading probes is electromagnetically coupled to the electronic label of the test tube through the information transmission path .
通過上述本發明用於檢體檢測的處理方法,可快速且準確地針對試管的身分識別,不僅大幅減少試管識別所需的時間,更有效解決傳統人為操作辨識試管容易造成誤辨的問題。 The above-mentioned processing method for specimen detection of the present invention can quickly and accurately identify the identity of the test tube, which not only greatly reduces the time required for test tube identification, but also effectively solves the problem that the traditional manual operation and identification of the test tube easily cause misidentification.
