Background technology
The beginning of the nineties in last century micro-total analysis system put forward, and can realize the chip system that miniature biochemical is analyzed.Micro-total analysis system has the distinguishing features such as detection speed is fast, style consumption is few, flux is high.Dimethyl silicone polymer (PDMS), as a kind of polymkeric substance having the fabulous transparency, low cytotoxicity, gas penetration potential, has been widely used in biochemical micro-total analysis system with the micro-fluidic chip that PDMS and slide are base material.In micro flow chip system, working fluid is main bearing medium, carries out actual flow velocity measurement, and regulate and control according to actual needs microfluid, has been one of biochemical analysis checkout procedure core parameter, is also one of micro-fluidic core technology.The flow velocity of microfluid is less, cannot accurately measure its flow velocity by the fluid velocity measuring method of routine.
Have at rate of flow of fluid measurement mechanism at present: ultrasound speed variator, as (patent CN201310001989), photoelectricity voltage fluctuation signal speed measuring device, as (patent CN200910103372), or spike particulate imaging speed measuring device, as devices such as (patents 201010163676) measures the flow velocity of microfluid.But mode brings many problems above, such as introduce other probe materials, cannot Measurement accuracy and processed complex etc.Common fluids fluid-velocity survey can solve contaminant problem by reducing precision, or introducing trace impurity improves precision.But, ensure that the microfluid fluid-velocity survey of precision and degree of purity is but controling parameters necessary in micro-total analysis chip system simultaneously.Meanwhile, introducing impurity is that major part experiment does not allow occurrence, introduces impurity or measuring error easily causes the failure of an experiment in degree of purity and the higher experiment of accuracy requirement.Therefore, microfluid fluid-velocity survey problem has become the long-term major obstacle hindering micro-total analysis system development.
Summary of the invention
The object of the invention is to overcome the defect that above-mentioned prior art exists, provide a kind of structure simply, the simple and easy microfluid flow rate measuring device of safety and sanitation again.
To achieve these goals, technical scheme of the present invention:
Simple and easy microfluid flow rate measuring device, described measurement mechanism to be tested the speed passage by rate of flow of fluid, gas inject passage, the micro flow chip that bubble formation passage is formed and bubble detected image harvester composition; Bubble formation passage end is closed, the other end and the rate of flow of fluid passage that tests the speed is interconnected, one end, bubble injection channel is closed, the blind end of bubble injection channel and the blind end of bubble formation passage positioned opposite, and be provided with breathing waterproof film between two blind ends, the external computing machine of bubble detected image harvester.
Described air permeable waterproof film thickness is 1 μm-1000 μm.
The described rate of flow of fluid passage that tests the speed adopts transparent watertight material.
Rate of flow of fluid tests the speed passage, and the width of gas inject passage and bubble formation passage is 10 μm-1000 μm.
Owing to have employed above technical scheme, microfluid flow rate measuring device provided by the invention possesses following beneficial effect:
1) the present invention only needs three passages just can complete fluid-velocity survey chip, and apparatus structure is simple.
2) in spike bubble injection process owing to adopting special breathing waterproof film to intercept gas inject raceway groove and bubble formation raceway groove, therefore there will not be liquid to flow back to the phenomenon of gas inject raceway groove.
3) because gas is not direct and fluid-velocity survey passage is come round, therefore can not form gas column on flow velocity tests the speed raceway groove affects fluid-velocity survey.
4) probe material of fluid-velocity survey adopts the gas do not reacted with fluid to be measured, and is discharged by breathing waterproof film after having tested the speed, therefore on the fluid in microchannel without impact, do not introduce any impurity, safety and sanitation.
5) rate of flow of fluid measurement has been come by spike bubble, and be therefore the direct measurement of the flow velocity of convection cell, measuring accuracy is high.
The present invention is reasonable in design, and structure is simple, high integration, and convection cell can not cause any pollution, and being applicable to needs nondestructive measurement microfluid fluid-velocity survey to test in micro-fluidic chip.
