Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the following describes specific technical solutions of the present invention in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. The following examples are intended to illustrate the invention but are not intended to limit the scope of the invention.
For better understanding of the embodiments of the present invention, the flow of sample analysis in the related art will be described first.
Fig. 1A is a schematic flow chart of a sample analysis system for sample analysis in the related art, as shown in fig. 1A, the sample analysis system at least includes: the sample rack 101, the test tube 102, the loading platform 103, the sample analyzer 104 and the unloading platform 105, wherein the test tube 1, the test tube 2, … and the test tube n are placed in the sample rack 101, a user places the sample rack 101 with n test tubes 102 placed on the loading platform 103, the assembly line sequentially transfers the sample rack to the sample analyzer 104, as shown in fig. 1, the test tube 2 is sequentially transported from the sample analyzer 1 to the sample analyzer n, and finally unloaded on the unloading platform 105. The pipeline is considered to be a set of automated inspection equipment, and may include at least a loading station, a detection device, and an unloading station.
Fig. 1B is a schematic diagram of a structure of a sample analysis system used in the related art, and as shown in fig. 1B, the slide pushing machine 11 has not only a function of preparing a blood smear but also a function of a tube rack unloading station (i.e., a transportation function). The assembly line scheduling program 15 of the sample analysis system is deployed on the main control board 12 of the wafer pusher, and the unloading platform of the wafer pusher and the assembly line unloading platform 13 are connected with the main control board 12. If the production line is expected to work properly, the pusher 11 must be powered on so that the pusher 11 can transfer the sample rack to the other sample analyzers 14. This has the following disadvantages: the starting process of the sheet pusher can execute initialization of a large number of mechanisms and liquid paths related to sheet making, self-checking operation is carried out, the starting time is long, reagents need to be consumed, after the starting is completed, the sheet pusher can also execute advance and retreat dormant operation, the reagents are consumed, the starting and stopping speed is influenced, and the environment is not protected.
In order to solve the defects in the above processing flow, an embodiment of the present invention provides an energy saving method for a sample analyzer, which is applied to a sample analysis system (also referred to as a sample analysis pipeline) and includes at least two sample analyzers, and fig. 2 is a schematic diagram of an implementation flow of the energy saving method for a sample analyzer according to an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 2, the method includes the following steps:
step S201, determining whether the sample analyzer is in the energy saving mode.
Here, the sample analyzer has two modes of operation, an energy-saving mode of operation and a non-energy-saving mode of operation. The sample analyzer may be any blood analyzer or in vitro diagnostic product, such as a push slide, a C Reactive Protein (CRP) detector, a glycation analyzer, a blood analyzer, or a slide reader, and the like, and there may be one or more sample analyzers of each type in the flow line. When the sample is detected by the sample analysis system, part of detection items of the sample can be detected by part of the sample analyzers, and all the detection items of the sample can be detected by all the sample analyzers. If the sample analyzer is a slide pusher, it includes a slide making function. In the assembly line, the push jack still has test-tube rack unloading platform function (transmission function promptly), in assembly line normal operating moreover, can appear the user and do not use the condition of push jack film-making for a long time.
Step S202, if the sample analyzer is in the energy-saving mode, the sample analyzer only loads or starts the first function in the starting process.
Here, the sample analyzer activates the first function and does not activate the second function in the power-saving mode. The first function is a function related to pipeline sample scheduling, such as a sample scheduling or transmission function. That is, to ensure proper operation of the sample analysis pipeline, the sample analyzer loads only the transfer function (i.e., the first function) that must be used.
Step S203, if the sample analyzer is in a non-energy-saving mode, the sample analyzer loads a first function and a second function in the starting process.
Here, the frequency of use of the second function is less than the frequency of use of the first function. The second function is associated with sample analysis. That is, if the sample analyzer is started up in a non-power-saving mode, both the transfer function of the sample analyzer and the function related to sample analysis are turned on. Taking the film pushing machine as an example, after the first function and the second function are loaded and started, the pipeline sample scheduling function can be executed, and the sample film pushing and film making functions can also be executed.
In the energy-saving method for the sample analyzer provided by the embodiment, the function which is not used frequently in the sample analyzer is not initialized, so that the normal work of a production line can be ensured, the reagent can be saved, and the method is more economical and applicable.
An embodiment of the present invention provides a method for saving energy for a sample analyzer, and fig. 3A is a schematic flow chart of another implementation of the method for saving energy for a sample analyzer according to the embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 3A, the method includes the following steps:
step S301, if the sample analyzer is in the energy-saving mode, the sample analyzer loads a first function in the starting process.
Here, the sample analyzer does not activate the second function when the first function is activated. That is, when the sample analyzer is started, only the commonly used first function is loaded at the same time, and the second function which is not commonly used is not loaded temporarily; obviously, the second function may also be manually turned on by the user if the user wishes to turn on the second function. For example, in a sample analysis assembly line, the film production function of the film pusher may not be used by a user for a long time, but the film pusher further has a rack unloading stage function, so that the film pusher must be opened to ensure normal operation of the whole assembly line.
Step S302, dispatching the sample racks which are tested by other sample analyzers in the sample analysis production line to the unloading platform of the sample analyzer.
Here, the step S302 may also be to schedule the sample racks in the sample analysis pipeline according to a preset scheduling policy. The sample analyzer does not start an unusual second function, but in order to ensure that the second function can be normally used when the second function needs to be used, a user needs to be reminded of performing liquid path maintenance on the second function at intervals; for example, the sample analyzer is a wafer pusher, only the function of the tube rack unloading platform of the wafer pusher is started, but if the wafer pusher does not perform the liquid path packaging operation before entering the energy-saving mode and the wafer pusher works in the energy-saving mode for a long time, the sample analyzer can automatically perform or prompt a user to perform the liquid path maintenance operation, so that the liquid path crystallization is avoided, and the performance of the instrument switched to the common working mode is not affected.
Step S303, if the sample analyzer does not perform liquid path packaging and the time of the sample analyzer in the energy-saving state is greater than a first time threshold, the sample analyzer sends out first prompt information.
In the embodiment of the invention, if the sample analyzer is in the energy-saving mode for a long time, the second function of the sample analyzer is in the unused state for a long time, and the liquid path initialization or liquid path cleaning cannot be performed every time the sample analyzer is turned on or turned off or goes forward and backward to sleep, so that the performance of the sample analyzer may be affected, for example, the liquid path of the sample analyzer is not crystallized due to the fact that the liquid path is not cleaned for a long time, and when the sample analyzer is recovered to the normal working mode (non-energy-saving mode), the sample analyzer cannot be cleaned even if the liquid path initialization or liquid path cleaning is performed again, so that the performance of the sample analyzer is reduced or the sample analyzer fails to be cleaned, therefore, no liquid path initialization or liquid path cleaning is.
In addition, if the liquid path is packed before the sample analyzer enters the energy-saving mode, and the liquid path is in an emptying and cleaning state, the liquid path initialization or liquid path cleaning can be omitted. If the sample analyzer is identified to be packaged in the liquid path, prompt information does not need to be sent, and the sample analyzer is continuously kept in the energy-saving state.
And step S304, the sample analyzer receives the input maintenance instruction and performs liquid path maintenance on the sample analyzer.
Here, the start instruction is an instruction in response to the input of the first prompt information. When the sample analyzer detects that the time of the second function which is not started is greater than the first time threshold value, a prompt message is sent to a user to prompt the user that the second function is not initialized for a long time and liquid path maintenance needs to be carried out once, and then the user manually starts the second function to carry out the liquid path maintenance.
The steps S303 and S304 may also be implemented by:
and when the time for detecting that the sample analyzer is in the energy-saving state is greater than a first time threshold value, performing liquid path maintenance on the sample analyzer.
When the sample analyzer detects that the time of the second function which is not started is greater than the first time threshold value, the second function is automatically initialized so as to maintain the liquid path, and the liquid path is prevented from crystallizing to influence the normal use of the second function. However, in general, in order to ensure that the user knows the right of the operation of the device and to avoid the normal use of the device, the user is notified first when the liquid path needs to be maintained.
Step S305 provides an option to turn off the backlight.
Step S306, if the backlight lamp is selected to be turned off and the time that the sample analyzer does not receive the operation instruction is greater than a second time threshold, turning off the display screen of the sample analyzer.
Here, as shown in fig. 3B, if the user selects to set the sample analyzer to the power saving mode (i.e., the operation mode in which only a portion of the functions are turned on), a "backlight off" option 33 is provided, and if the user clicks on the "backlight off" option 33, after the apparatus is turned on, if there is no operation within a second time threshold, i.e., the display screen brightness is reduced or the display screen is turned off (e.g., there is no operation within 30 seconds, i.e., the backlight is turned off), so as to save energy.
Step S307, when the input first operation is received, the display screen is opened.
Here, the first operation may be that the user clicks a screen or clicks a specific button, etc., for example, in a case where the backlight is turned off, the user clicks the screen, and the screen is lit up. When the display screen of the sample analyzer is opened, the operation instruction of instrument maintenance or fault elimination can be responded or executed.
In the energy-saving method for the sample analyzer, in order to ensure that the unusual functions can still be used normally, when the second function is detected not to be started for a long time, the second function is initialized, and necessary liquid path maintenance is performed, so that the influence of liquid path crystallization on the normal use of the second function is avoided.
In other embodiments, energy-saving mode and non-energy-saving mode options are provided for a user on a display interface of the sample analyzer for the user to select a desired operating mode, the method may comprise the steps of:
in a first step, an option is provided to turn on or off the energy saving mode.
And secondly, starting or closing an energy-saving mode of the sample analyzer according to the received selection instruction.
Or the like, or, alternatively,
when the time that the second function is detected to be in the unused state is larger than a second time threshold value, sending out second prompt information; and the second prompt message is used for prompting the user to select whether to enter the energy-saving mode.
Here, the sample analyzer is used in two modes of operation, namely an energy-saving mode and a non-energy-saving mode; when the energy-saving sample analyzer is used by a user, an energy-saving mode option and a non-energy-saving mode option are provided for the user on an interface of the sample analyzer, and the energy-saving mode is entered through manual selection; or if the second function is detected to be unused for a long time, the user is reminded to select whether to enter the energy-saving mode. For example, the sample analyzer is a wafer pusher, if the wafer pushing function of the wafer pusher is not used for a long time, the user is reminded to select to enter the energy-saving mode, and when the wafer pusher is started, only the scheduling function of the wafer pusher is loaded, and the wafer pushing function of the wafer pusher is not loaded, so that resources are saved, and the startup and shutdown speed is increased. As shown in fig. 3B, if the sample analyzer is a chip pusher, the user is provided with an option 31 to turn on the energy saving mode and an option 32 to turn off the energy saving mode on the display interface of the chip pusher; if the user selects the option 31 of starting the energy-saving mode, the wafer pusher starts the energy-saving mode and does not consume reagents; if the user selects the option 32 for closing the energy-saving mode, the sheet pusher is in a non-energy-saving mode, and can perform functions such as sample sheet pushing and the like, and reagents need to be consumed; in this embodiment, when it is detected that the user does not use the push function of the push tablet machine for a long time, a prompt message is sent to the user to prompt the user to select the option 31 for starting the energy saving mode.
An embodiment of the present invention provides an energy saving method for a sample analyzer, fig. 4 is a schematic diagram of a work flow of a chip pusher in a related art, and as shown in fig. 4, the work flow includes the following steps:
and step S401, the user starts the wafer pushing machine and opens the air source.
Step S402, initializing the mechanism and the liquid path related to the film making function of the film pusher and the mechanism related to the function of the test tube rack unloading platform by the film pusher.
And step S403, the user enters an operation interface of the push chip machine.
And S404, responding to the film making function of the film pusher by the film pusher, and responding to user operations such as test tube rack recovery, interface browsing, fault elimination and the like.
And S405, the slide pushing machine reports the detected slide making function fault and the test tube rack unloading platform function fault.
In step S406, the film pusher determines whether the user has a request.
Here, if the user has an on-device request, the process proceeds to step S407; if the user has no shutdown request, the process returns to step S404.
In step S407, the ejector resets both the mechanism related to the ejector function and the mechanism related to the unloader function.
And step S408, cleaning a liquid path by the sheet pushing machine.
And step S409, the user closes the air source, and then closes the wafer pushing machine.
Fig. 5 is a schematic diagram of a work flow of a sheet pushing machine adopting an energy saving method of a sample analyzer according to an embodiment of the present invention, and as shown in fig. 5, the work flow includes the following steps:
step S501, a user starts the wafer pushing machine and opens the air source.
And step S502, initializing the mechanism related to the function of the unloading platform of the test tube rack of the sheet pusher by the sheet pusher.
And step S503, the user enters an operation interface of the push chip machine.
And step S504, responding to the test tube rack unloading stage function of the sheet pusher by the sheet pusher, and responding to user operations such as test tube rack recovery, interface browsing, fault elimination and the like.
Here, as shown in fig. 3B, if the user has selected the power-on mode option 31 of the pusher and the user has selected the "turn off backlight" option 33, after the instrument is powered on, if there is no operation within 30S, i.e., the display screen is turned off, energy is saved. With the backlight off, the user clicks on the screen and the screen lights up.
And step S505, the sheet pushing machine reports the detected faults of the functions of the unloading platform of the test tube rack.
In step S506, the film pushing machine determines whether the user has a request for the machine.
Here, if the user has a machine-related request, the flow proceeds to step S507; if the user has no shutdown request, return to step S504.
And step S507, the user closes the air source, and then closes the sheet pushing machine.
In this embodiment, in order to adapt to a scenario in which a client does not use a film pusher for a long time, an energy saving method for a sample analyzer is provided, where a film pusher is set to an energy saving mode, that is, only a running-down scheduling function is turned on, if a user selects the energy saving mode, an unnecessary liquid path and mechanism initialization operation is not performed when the film pusher is turned on, an unrelated state is not polled, and a failure unrelated to a function supported in the energy saving mode is not reported, so that fast turning on and off is achieved, and reagents are not consumed.
In this embodiment, if it is recognized that the user does not use the film production and blood analysis functions of the film pusher for a long time, the user may be actively prompted to set the energy saving mode and provide operation guidance, and it is not necessarily required that the user actively set whether to select the energy saving mode. And if the liquid path packaging operation is not executed before the sheet pusher enters the energy-saving mode, and the sheet pusher works for a long time in the energy-saving mode, the liquid path maintenance operation can be automatically executed or prompted to be executed by a user (the time needs to be confirmed by a liquid path engineer according to the actual condition of equipment), so that the liquid path crystallization is avoided, and the instrument performance after the sheet pusher is switched to the common working mode is influenced. Therefore, the quick startup and shutdown are realized, and no reagent is consumed in the startup and shutdown process and the standby process; in the starting mode, the screen can be closed when no operation exceeds a certain time, and the touch screen is clicked to light the screen, so that energy is saved.
