Specifically, the buffering assembly 31 includes four buffering members, the four buffering members are arranged in an array on the first mounting base 14, and each buffering member can be deformed to play a buffering role in a recoverable manner under the action of external force, so that noise generated by vibration in the working process of the centrifugal device 30 is reduced. It can be understood that the number and the arrangement mode of the buffer parts are not limited, and the buffer parts can be arranged as required to achieve an ideal buffering and damping effect.
The driving assembly 32 includes a driving support 321 and a driving member 323. Drive mount 321 is supported on cushioning assembly 31 and is fixedly coupled to cushioning assembly 31 by fasteners. The driving member 323 is accommodated in the driving support 321, and an output shaft of the driving member 323 extends out of an end of the driving support 321 away from the mounting base to be coupled with the rotating member 33. Specifically, in one embodiment, the driving member 323 is a stepper motor for outputting torque. It will be appreciated that the particular type of drive member 323 is not limited and may be configured as desired to meet different drive requirements.
The rotating member 33 is coupled to an output shaft of the driving member 323, and the rotating member 33 is rotated about a rotation axis by the driving member 323. Specifically, the rotating member 33 includes a middle connecting portion 332 and two catches 334, the middle connecting portion 332 is fixed to the output shaft of the driving assembly 32 by fastening bolts, so that the rotating member 33 can rotate around a rotating shaft under the driving of the driving assembly 32. When the rotation member 33 rotates to the initial angle, the intermediate connection portion 332 extends lengthwise in the first direction. The two retainers 334 are respectively disposed at two opposite ends of the middle connecting portion 332 in the first direction, each retainer 334 includes two retaining arms spaced apart in the second direction, and each retaining arm is penetrated by a mounting hole extending in the second direction to mount the centrifugal piece 34.
Further, in an embodiment, each of the retainers 334 includes a first retainer 3341 and a second retainer 3343, the first retainer 3341 is integrally formed with the middle connecting portion 332, and the second retainer 3343 is stacked on a side of the first retainer 3341 facing away from the mounting base 10. The surface of one side, facing the second clamping part 3343, of the first clamping part 3341 is provided with a first mounting groove with a semicircular cross section, the surface of one side, facing the first clamping part 3341, of the second clamping part 3343 is provided with a second mounting groove with a semicircular cross section, and the second mounting groove and the first mounting groove are correspondingly communicated to form a mounting hole together.
In order to ensure the balance of the rotating member 33 during the rotation, the centrifugal device 30 includes two centrifugal members 34, the two centrifugal members 34 are respectively retained in the two retaining portions 334, so as to be symmetrically installed on two opposite sides of the rotating member 33 with the rotation axis of the rotating member 33 as a symmetry axis, and the reaction tube 200 can be inserted into any one of the centrifugal members 34.
The centrifugal member 34 is a block structure and is provided with a mounting position for limiting the reaction tube 200, the centrifugal member 34 is rotatably coupled to the rotating member 33, and the rotation axis of the centrifugal member 34 intersects with the rotation axis of the rotating member 33. Thus, when the driving member 323 drives the rotating member 33 to rotate, the centrifugal member 34 also deflects at a certain angle, so that the liquid in the reaction tube 200 fills the detection chamber at the bottom of the reaction tube 200 under the action of centrifugal force.
Specifically, in some embodiments, the eccentric 34 includes a connecting end 341 and a free end 343 that are disposed opposite to each other. The connecting end 341 of the centrifugal member 34 is rotatably mounted on the rotating member 33, and the free end 343 is provided with a reaction tube mounting cavity with two open ends to form a mounting position for limiting the reaction tube. In this way, the reaction tube 200 can be inserted into the reaction tube installation cavity by the liquid-transferring device 40, and when the rotating member 33 is driven by the driving member 323 to rotate, the centrifugal member 34 rotates along with the rotating member 33, and the free end 343 deflects outwardly to drive the reaction tube 200 to deflect outwardly.
More specifically, the centrifugal device 30 further includes a deflecting member 35, and both ends of the deflecting member 35 are respectively coupled to the chucking arm and the centrifugal member 34, and the centrifugal member 34 can be deflected with respect to the rotating member 33 with the deflecting member 35 as a rotation center.

In this manner, the centrifugal member 34 is deflected with respect to the rotation member 33 by the deflection member 35 so that the sample can be concentrated on the bottom of the reaction tube 200.
In some embodiments, to control the rotation angle of the rotating member 33, the centrifugal device 30 further includes a positioning member 36 and a sensing assembly 37. The positioning member 36 is mounted to the rotating member 33 and rotates with the rotating member 33, and the sensing member 37 is spaced apart from one side of the driving member 32 to detect the position of the positioning member 36. When the sensing unit 37 detects that the positioning member 36 is located at the target position, it determines that the rotating member 33 is at the initial angle, and controls the driving unit 32 to stop operating so that the rotating member 33 stays at the initial angle, and the reaction tube 200 can be removed by the pipetting device 40.
The initial angle of the rotating member 33 is a position where the longitudinal direction of the rotating member 33 is parallel to the first direction, and when the rotating member 33 is at the initial angle, the two centrifugal members 34 are disposed at intervals in the first direction. It will be appreciated that the initial angle of the rotating member 33 can be adjusted by changing the mounting angle of the positioning member 36 relative to the rotating member 33 to meet different sampling requirements of the pipetting device 40.
Specifically, the positioning element 36 is a rod-shaped structure extending in a zigzag manner, one end of the positioning element 36 is mounted on one side of the middle connecting portion 332 of the rotating element 33, and the other end of the positioning element 36 is bent and extends in the second direction.

When the positioning element 36 is located at the target position, the positioning element 36 is located between the signal emitting unit 374 and the signal receiving unit 376, so as to block the signal emitted by the signal emitting unit 374, and the signal receiving unit 376 fails to receive the signal, so as to determine that the rotating element 33 is at the initial angle. Specifically, in an embodiment, the signal emitted by the signal emitting unit 374 is an optical signal, and the positioning element 36 can block the optical signal from reaching the signal receiving unit 376, so that the sensing element 37 can determine the rotation angle of the rotating member 33.
