Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.
Fig. 1 is an external view of the test kit 1 in use, and fig. 2 is an external view of the test kit 1 when the lid is closed. Fig. 3 is an exploded view of the test kit 1, and fig. 4 is a longitudinal sectional view of the test kit 1 when the test kit 1 is cut off with a vertical plane including the center axis C. In the present specification, the bottom side (lower side in fig. 1 and 2) of the test set 1 (container body 10) is referred to as "lower side" and the top side (upper side in fig. 1 and 2) of the test set 1 is referred to as "upper side" based on the posture of the test set 1 in which the container body 10 and the lid 12 are erected as shown in fig. 1 and 2.
As shown in fig. 1 to 4, the test kit 1 includes a container body 10 capable of storing saliva as a sample, a straw member 11 provided in the container body 10, a lid 12 capable of sealing the container body 10, a display 13, and a pressing member 14.
The container body 10 has a cylindrical shape with an open top and a closed bottom. The container body 10 has a mouth 20 at the top. As shown in fig. 4, the bottom surface of the container body 10 is recessed toward the bottom so that the center thereof is the lowest, for example. As shown in fig. 1 and 4, a screw portion 21 to be described later, into which a screw portion 172 of the lid 12 is screwed, is formed on the outer peripheral surface of the mouth portion 20 of the container body 10. As shown in fig. 4 and 7, a recess 72 and a step 71 for locking the locking portion 41 of the straw member 11 described later are formed in the inner peripheral surface 70 of the upper portion of the container body 10.
The straw member 11 is provided inside the container body 10 in the vicinity of the mouth 20. Fig. 5 is a perspective view of the straw member 11, and fig. 6 is a plan view of the straw member 11 as viewed from above. As shown in fig. 5 and 6, the straw member 11 includes a straw portion 30 for flowing saliva from the mouth of the subject into the container body 10, and a ventilation portion 31 for discharging the gas flowing from the straw portion 30 into the container body 10.
The suction pipe portion 30 has an elongated cylindrical shape extending in the up-down direction. The ventilation portion 31 is formed around the straw portion 30 so that the inside of the container body 10 located at the lower side of the straw member 11 and the outside of the container body 10 located at the upper side of the straw member 11 communicate in the up-down direction.
The straw member 11 is inserted into the container body 10 and is locked to the inner peripheral surface of the container body 10. The straw member 11 includes, for example, a ring portion 40, a locking portion 41, a linking portion 42, a held portion 43, and an arm portion 44.
The annular portion 40 and the suction pipe portion 30 are concentric with the central axis C and are located on the outer periphery of the suction pipe portion 30. The ring portion 40 is connected to the suction pipe portion 30 by a plurality (e.g., three) of arm portions 44. As shown in fig. 6, the arm portions 44 extend radially from the suction pipe portion 30 toward the annular portion 40. The arm portions 44 are provided at equal intervals in the circumferential direction around the central axis C of the suction pipe portion 30. The suction pipe portion 30, the annular portion 40, and the arm portion 44 may have a gap therebetween, and may be the ventilation portion 31. The ventilation portions 31 are formed, for example, at three places around the central axis C.
The locking portions 41 are provided at a plurality of positions (for example, three positions) of the annular portion 40 at equal intervals. The locking portion 41 is provided at a position of the connecting arm portion 44 in the annular portion 40 (a position where an extension line of the arm portion 44 intersects the annular portion 40). As shown in fig. 5, for example, the locking portion 41 extends in a prismatic shape above the annular portion 40. The locking portion 41 is formed by protruding a part of the outer peripheral surface 41a outward. As shown in fig. 7, the outer peripheral surface 41a of the locking portion 41 has a tapered shape that gradually protrudes outward from bottom to top. A stepped portion 71 serving as a stopper on which the bottom surface of the annular portion 40 of the straw member 11 is placed and a recess 72 serving as a portion to be engaged with the engaging portion 41 of the straw member 11 placed on the stepped portion 71 are formed on the inner peripheral surface 70 of the container body 10. With the above configuration, when the straw member 11 is inserted into the container body 10 from the mouth portion 20 of the container body 10, the straw member 11 is placed on the stepped portion 71, the locking portion 41 is locked with the recess 72, and the straw member 11 is fixed to the inner peripheral surface 70 of the container body 10.
The interlocking part 42 is interlocked with the locking part 41. The interlocking parts 42 are provided at the respective arm parts 44 as shown in fig. 5 and 6, and are provided at three positions in total. The interlocking portion 42 is disposed close to the inner side (center axis C side) of the locking portion 41. As shown in fig. 5, the interlocking portion 42 extends above the arm portion 44 in a prismatic shape. The interlocking portion 42 protrudes upward from the locking portion 41. A tapered surface 42a lower on the outside than the inside is formed on the upper surface of the interlocking portion 42. When the tapered surface 42a is pressed by a release portion 140 of the lid 12, which will be described later, the interlocking portion 42 is inclined inward (toward the center axis C), and the locking portion 41 is also inclined inward in conjunction with the interlocking portion. Thereby, the locking portion 41 is released from the locking with respect to the container body 10.
The held portion 43 is held by a holding portion 141 of the lid 12, which will be described later. As shown in fig. 5 and 6, the held portions 43 are provided at a plurality of positions (for example, three positions) of the annular portion 40 at equal intervals. The held portion 43 is formed in an arc shape around the central axis C of the suction pipe portion 30, for example. The held portion 43 is formed in a plate shape having an arc surface on the annular portion 40. The held portion 43 has a claw portion 43a protruding inward at its upper end portion. The claw portion 43a extends in an arc shape around the central axis C of the suction pipe portion 30. The holding portion 141 is held by the holding portion 43 by the claw portion 43a being engaged with a holding portion 141 of the lid 12, which will be described later, and the straw member 11 is held by the lid 12.
As shown in fig. 3 and 4, the lid 12 has a double structure, and includes an inner case portion 100 and an outer case portion 101 that is fixedly housed in the inner case portion 100. The inner housing part 100 is assembled with the outer housing part 101. As shown in fig. 8, the inner shell portion 100 has a cylindrical shape with an open bottom and an open top, for example. The inner housing portion 100 has a storage portion 110 for storing a storage liquid as a use liquid at an upper portion of the interior, an internal flow path 111 for allowing the storage liquid to flow downward at a lower portion of the interior, and an opening portion 112 at a bottom portion of the storage portion 110 between the storage portion 110 and the internal flow path 111. The inner case 100 includes, from top to bottom, a first peripheral side wall 100a, a second peripheral side wall 100b, and a third peripheral side wall 100c, a reservoir 110 is formed in the first peripheral side wall 100a, an internal flow passage 111 is formed in the third peripheral side wall 100c, and an opening 112 is disposed in the second peripheral side wall 100 b.
The reservoir 110 and the internal flow path 111 are formed as a cylindrical space. The top surface of the reservoir 110 and the bottom surface of the internal flow channel 111 are open. A small space 113 having a relatively small inner diameter is formed between the reservoir 110 and the internal flow path 111, and an opening 112 is provided in the small space 113. The opening 112 can block the passage of liquid between the reservoir 110 and the internal flow path 111.
The opening 112 is detachable from the inner housing part 100. For example, the opening 112 is detachable from the narrow space 113. The opening 112 has, for example, a substantially disk shape. As shown in fig. 9, the opening 112 includes, for example, a circular top plate 120 and a cylindrical peripheral plate 121. The peripheral plate 121 gradually increases in diameter as it goes downward. A cross-shaped rib 122 is provided on the top plate 120 of the opening 112. As shown in fig. 8, the opening 112 is inserted from above into the constricted portion 130 of the second peripheral wall 100b forming the narrow space 113. At this time, the top plate 120 is engaged with the upper end 130a of the constricted portion 130, and the peripheral plate 121 is closely contacted with the inner peripheral surface 130b of the constricted portion 130.
The inner housing portion 100 has an outer peripheral surface 135 that is in close contact with the inner peripheral surface of the mouth portion 20 of the container body 10 when the lid 12 is inserted into the container body 10, in a lower portion of the third peripheral wall 100c corresponding to the internal flow path 111.
As shown in fig. 8 and 10, the lower end portion of the inner case portion 100 is formed in a substantially cylindrical shape, and a releasing portion 140 for releasing the locking of the straw member 11 to the inner peripheral surface 70 of the container body 10 and a holding portion 141 for holding the released straw member 11 are provided at the lower end portion of the inner case portion 100.
The releasing portion 140 and the holding portion 141 extend downward from the third peripheral side wall 100 c. The release portion 140 and the holding portion 141 are separated by a plurality of cutouts 142, for example, in the circumferential direction about the center axis C. Thus, the releasing portion 140 and the holding portion 141 are constituted by a plurality of arc-shaped portions intermittently formed in the circumferential direction around the central axis C.
The release portion 140 and the holding portion 141 have claw portions 160 protruding outward at lower end portions thereof. The claw 160 extends in an arc shape around the central axis C. When the lid 12 is attached to the container body 10, the release portion 140 presses the interlocking portion 42 of the straw member 11 at the tip thereof, and the interlocking portion 42 and the locking portion 41 incline inward to release the locking of the locking portion 41. The holding portion 141 is engaged with the claw portion 43a of the held portion 43 by the claw portion 160 to hold the held portion 43. In the present embodiment, the release portion 140 and the holding portion 141 of the lower end portion of the inner case portion 100 are not distinguished, and the same portion of the lower end portion of the inner case portion 100 becomes the release portion 140 or the holding portion 141 by the fitting angle of the inner case portion 100 and the straw member 11 in the circumferential direction when the lid 12 is attached to the container body 10.
As shown in fig. 8 and 10, a groove 150 serving as a locking portion for locking a projection 174 described later of the housing portion 100 is provided on the outer peripheral surface of the first peripheral wall 100A.
As shown in fig. 11, the housing portion 101 has a cylindrical shape with an open bottom and a closed top. A cylindrical insertion portion 171 is formed in the top 170 of the inside of the outer case 101 and is inserted into the upper portion of the first peripheral side wall 100a of the inner case 100. When the inner case part 100 is inserted into the outer case part 101 as shown in fig. 12, the top surface of the inner case part 100 is closed by the top 170. As shown in fig. 11 and 12, a screw portion 172 that is screwed with the screw portion 21 of the mouth portion 20 of the container body 10 is formed on the inner peripheral surface of the lower portion of the housing portion 101. An outer peripheral surface of the housing portion 101 is formed with irregularities 173 serving as slip-resistant members as shown in fig. 1.
As shown in fig. 11, a plurality of protruding portions 174 serving as engaged portions engaged with the grooves 150 are provided on the inner peripheral surface of the housing 101. This makes it possible to fix the inner case 100 and the outer case 101 by locking them together.
As shown in fig. 1 to 4, the display 13 displays the temperature state of the container body 10. The display 13 includes a material that changes color to a predetermined color when the temperature is within a predetermined temperature range (for example, 80 ℃ or higher) and maintains the color even when the temperature is not within the predetermined temperature range thereafter. The display 13 changes to a predetermined color when, for example, the temperature at which the virus is inactivated, and thus, it can be confirmed that the virus in saliva in the container body 10 is in an inactivated state (the inactivation treatment is performed). The display 13 may display the current temperature of the container body 10, or may display that the container body 10 has reached a certain temperature range.
The display 13 is a ring member of a groove 190 attached to the outer peripheral surface of the container body 10. The display 13 is provided near the lower portion of the container body 10 where saliva is stored (the position where saliva is collected).
The pressing member 14 has a cylindrical shape with a closed bottom. The pressing member 14 is attached to the lower portion of the container body 10, and presses the display body 13 from below so that the display body 13 does not separate from the container body 10. In the present embodiment, the gap between the upper end of the pressing member 14 and the container body 10 is a groove 190.
Next, a method of using the detection kit 1 configured as described above will be described.
First, a process of preparing the detection kit 1 is performed. First, as shown in fig. 3, the opening 112 is attached to the inner case portion 100 from a state in which the inner case portion 100 and the outer case portion 101 of the lid 12 are separated. At this time, the opening 112 enters from the top surface of the inner case 100, and is fitted into the constricted portion 130 of the narrow space 113 as shown in fig. 8. Thereby, the bottom of the reservoir 110 is closed.
Next, the storage liquid is stored in the storage unit 110 of the inner housing part 100. Next, as shown in fig. 12, the inner housing part 100 is inserted into the outer housing part 101 and fixed. At this time, the upper portion of the first peripheral sidewall 100a of the inner case part 100 is inserted into the insertion portion 171 of the outer case part 101, and the top surface of the storage part 110 is closed by the top 170 of the outer case part 101. Further, the protrusion 174 of the housing portion 101 is fitted into the groove 150 of the housing portion 100, and the housing portion 100 is fixed to the housing portion 101.
Then, the straw member 11 is attached to the container body 10. At this time, as shown in fig. 7, the straw member 11 is inserted from the mouth portion 20 of the container body 10, the straw member 11 is placed on the stepped portion 71 of the inner peripheral surface 70 of the container body 10, the locking portion 41 is locked with the recess 72, and the straw member 11 is fixed to the container body 10. As a result, the test kit 1 is in a state of two members, i.e., the lid 12 and the container body 10 with the straw member 11, as shown in fig. 1. The suction pipe member 11 may be attached to the container body 10 before the storage of the storage liquid. The display 13 and the pressing member 14 may be attached to the container body 10 in advance, or may be attached to the container body 10 at any point in the preparation process of the detection kit 1.
Next, a step of collecting saliva of the subject is performed. The subject includes a straw portion 30 of the straw member 11, and saliva is blown from the straw portion 30 into the container body 10. As a result, as shown in fig. 13, saliva a is stored in the container body 10, and the inflowing breath is discharged to the outside through the ventilation portion 31.
Next, the lid 12 is attached to the container body 10. At this time, first, as shown in fig. 14, the mouth portion 20 of the container body 10 is inserted between the inner case portion 100 and the outer case portion 101 of the lid body 12. The inner peripheral surface of the mouth portion 20 of the lid 12 is in contact with the outer peripheral surface 135 of the inner case portion 100 without any gap, and air tightness is ensured therebetween. The cap 12 is rotated about the central axis C with respect to the container body 10, and the screw portion 172 of the cap 12 is screwed with the screw portion 21 of the mouth portion 20 of the container body 10.
When the mouth 20 of the container body 10 is further inserted into the lid 12, as shown in fig. 15, the straw portion 30 of the straw member 11 abuts against the opening portion 112, and pushes up the opening portion 112 to open the bottom of the storage portion 110. Thereby, the preserving fluid B in the storage portion 110 flows into the container body 10 through the internal flow path 111, and is stored in the bottom of the container body 10 through the ventilation portion 31 of the straw member 11. Thus, saliva A and preservative fluid B are mixed.
When the mouth portion 20 of the container body 10 is inserted into the lid 12, the release portion 140 of the lid 12 presses the interlocking portion 42 of the straw member 11, and the interlocking portion 42 and the locking portion 41 incline inward, releasing the locking of the locking portion 41 with respect to the inner peripheral surface 70 of the container body 10.
At this time, the claw 160 of the holding portion 141 of the cover 12 is engaged with the claw 43a of the held portion 43, and the held portion 43 is held by the holding portion 141.
Then, when the screw portion 172 of the cap 12 is firmly fastened to the screw portion 21 of the mouth portion 20 of the container body 10, the container body 10 is sealed by the cap 12 as shown in fig. 2.
Next, a process of transporting the test kit 1 to a test site or the like is performed. At this time, for example, the display 13 confirms that the virus in saliva held in the container body 10 is in a predetermined temperature range in which the virus is inactivated.
Next, a step of detecting saliva is performed. The cover 12 is removed from the container body 10. At this time, since the inner case portion 100 of the lid 12 holds the straw member 11, both the lid 12 and the straw member 11 are removed from the container body 10 as shown in fig. 16. After that, saliva a in the container body 10 is detected.
According to the present embodiment, the straw member 11 is provided in the mouth portion 20 of the container body 10, and the straw member 11 includes the straw portion 30 and the ventilation portion 31. Thus, the subject can contain the straw portion 30, blow saliva into the straw portion 30, and store saliva in the container body 10 through the straw portion 30. Further, the air blown into the container body 10 can be discharged through the air vent portion 31. As a result, saliva of the subject smoothly flows into the container body 10 without leakage, and an appropriate amount of saliva can be collected in a short time simply and reliably.
The straw member 11 is configured to be inserted into the container body 10 and to be locked to the inner peripheral surface 70 of the container body 10. Thereby, the straw member 11 can be easily attached to the container body 10.
The lid 12 includes a releasing portion 140 for releasing the locking of the straw member 11 to the inner peripheral surface 70 of the container body 10 when the lid 12 is attached to the container body 10, and a holding portion 141 for holding the straw member 11 from which the locking is released when the lid 12 is attached to the container body 10. Thus, when the lid 12 is removed from the container body 10, the lid 12 holds the straw member 11 and is removed together with the straw member 11. Thus, the inspector can take out saliva in the container body 10 without touching the straw member 11, which is sanitary.
The straw member 11 has a locking portion 41 which is locked to the inner peripheral surface 70 of the container body 10 and can be released by the releasing portion 140, and a held portion 43 which is held by the holding portion 141 of the lid 12. Thereby, the straw member 11 is properly transferred from the container body 10 to the lid 12.
The pipette member 11 has a linking portion 42 linked to the locking portion 41, and the linking portion 42 is pressed by the releasing portion 140 to release the locking of the locking portion 41. Thereby, the locking of the locking portion 41 is appropriately released. Further, since the straw member 11 is prevented from being removed unintentionally, erroneous drinking of the straw member 11 can be prevented.
The straw member 11 has an annular portion 40 located on the outer periphery of the straw portion 30 and concentric with the straw portion 30, and the locking portion 41 and the held portion 43 are provided in the annular portion 40. With the above configuration, the locking portion 41 or the held portion 43 can be easily formed, and the straw member 11 can be made compact.
The pipette component 11 has a plurality of arm portions 44 connecting the annular portion 40 and the pipette portion 30, the locking portion 41 is provided at a position of the arm portion 44 in the connecting annular portion 40, and the interlocking portion 42 is provided at the arm portion 44. Thus, the interlocking portion 42 is disposed inside the locking portion 41, and the interlocking portion 42 appropriately moves the locking portion 41 inward, so that the locking of the locking portion 41 can be appropriately released.
The lid 12 includes a storage portion 110 for storing the liquid B and an open portion 112 configured to open the storage portion 110 and allow the liquid B in the storage portion 110 to flow into the container body 10 in the lid 12. This also enables detection using the preservation solution B to be suitably performed.
The lid 12 includes a cylindrical inner case portion 100 and an outer case portion 101 which is fixedly housed in the inner case portion 100, and the inner case portion 100 includes a storage portion 110 and an opening portion 112 which are opened at the top surface in the inner case portion 100, and the outer case portion 101 is configured so that the top surface of the storage portion 110 is closed when the inner case portion 100 is fixed in the outer case portion 101. With the above configuration, the storage operation of the storage liquid B in the lid 12 can be performed appropriately.
Since the opening portion 112 is detachable from the inner housing portion 100, the storage portion 110 can be opened and closed appropriately.
The lid 12 is configured to be opened by pressing the opening portion 112 by the straw portion 30 of the straw member 11 when the lid 12 is attached to the container body 10. With the above configuration, it is unnecessary to provide a separate member for opening, for example, the opening portion 112, and the detection kit 1 is miniaturized and simplified in structure.
Since the detection kit 1 includes the display 13 for displaying the temperature state of the container body 10, it is possible to confirm whether the saliva a stored in the container body 10 or the container body 10 itself is in an appropriate temperature range.
Since the display 13 is a ring member attached to the outer peripheral surface of the container body 10, the display 13 can be easily attached. The display 13 may be a sealing member of an irreversible temperature indicating material which changes color at a specific temperature and does not return to its original color once changed.
The detection kit 1 further includes a pressing member 14 that presses the display body 13 so that the display body 13 does not come off the container body 10. This prevents the display 13 from falling off during transportation of the test kit 1.
The preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described above with reference to the drawings, but the present invention is not limited to the examples. It is apparent to those skilled in the art that various changes and modifications can be made within the scope of the idea described in the claims, and it is needless to say that these modifications are also within the technical scope of the present invention.
For example, in the above embodiment, the shape or structure of the container body 10, the straw member 11, the lid 12, and the like is not limited thereto. For example, the storage portion 110 of the cover 12 may be omitted. The opening 112 may be removable from the cover 12 or may be integrally formed with the cover 12. The straw member 11 may have no locking portion 41, no interlocking portion 42, and no held portion 43, or may have a structure integral with the container body 10. The engaging portion 41, the interlocking portion 42, or the held portion 43 of the straw member 11 may have other structures. The lid 12 may not be divided into the inner case 100 and the outer case 101. The releasing portion 140 or the holding portion 141 of the cover 12 may have other structures. The detection kit 1 may not include the display 13 or the pressing member 14.
The detection kit 1 of the present invention may be applied to DNA detection or PCR detection, or may be applied to other detection.
