Description

样品检测仪
技术领域
本发明涉及用于检测样品(比如装在如试管等容器中的血液)的样品检测仪。
背景技术
Jpn.Pat.Appln.KOKAI公开No.2002-323479揭露了如上所述的样品检测仪。在该仪器中，传感线圈被安装到装有血清和凝块的试管上，血清和凝块被硅分离机构相互分开。当传感线圈提供具有给定频率的测量信号时，传感线圈与试管彼此相对移动。根据测量信号大小的变化，探测到血清和凝块的分离表面。
上述仪器设计用于通过安装传感线圈到试管上对试管中的样品进行磁性检测。因此它并不适合于当带式运送机运送容器时对装在容器中的样品进行检测。
发明内容
本发明的目的就是提供具有如下优点的样品检测仪。
1)即使带式运送机运送容器时也能够容易并准确地对装在容器中的样品进行检测。
2)即使用条形码在容器外表面给容器贴标签时也能对装在容器中的样品进行检测。
为了实现上述目的，根据本发明的样品检测仪具有如下特有结构。其它特有结构将在具体实施方式中阐明。
根据本发明样式的样品检测仪，包括样品容器，该容器由筒架型容器固定器垂直定位并由带式运送机进行运送；设置成获取样品容器红外图像的红外CCD照相机；将由红外CCD照相机获取的红外图像转换成可视图像的可视图像转换器；将红外图像或可视图像之一处理并转换成适合于测量样品数量的图像信号处理单元；以及响应图像信号处理单元处理后的信号对样品容器中样品数量进行测量的样品数量测量单元。
附图说明
图1是显示根据本发明具体实施方式的样品检测仪的框图。
图2是显示根据本发明具体实施方式的样品检测仪工作的平面示意图。
具体实施方式
图1说明根据本发明具体实施方式的样品检测仪。仪器按如下进行结构。当样品容器(试管)6存入时，例如，存储器或者存储盘(两者均未示出)，红外CCD照相机10获得容器6的图片以检测样品是否按给定数量装在容器6中。将在下面对仪器的结构进行更详细地描述。
用条形码6a在样品容器的外表面给样品容器贴上标签并垂直地把持在称为筒架的容器固定器7上。以这种状态，通过带式运送机8，容器6被运送到存储器或者存储位置。带式运送机8包括导轨8a和运送环带8b。容器6装有样品S，如由离心过滤获得的血液。
红外CCD照相机10位于带式运送机8的旁边，而且其高度主要由位置控制单元20控制。位置控制单元20包括向前和向后转动的马达21，对马达21的旋转进行减速的减速齿轮机构22a和22b，垂直安装在装备基础1上通过减速齿轮机构22a和22b以低速旋转的导螺杆23，与导螺杆23的旋转一致进行上下移动的滑块24，以及将红外CCD照相机10固定到滑块24的固定组件25。
可视图像转换器31与红外CCD照相机10的输出端相连。转换器31将由照相机10获取的红外图像转换成可视图像。图像信号处理单元32将红外图像或可视图像处理并转换成适合于测量样品数量的信号。样品数量测量单元33响应由图像信号处理单元32处理后的信号测量样品的数量。由LCD制成的图像显示器34可以显示可视图像。
样品数量测量单元33通过输出端40将测量信号输出到主计算机(未示出)。测量信号还作为返回指令信号供给到控制器50。控制器50彼此相互关联地控制红外照相机10和位置控制单元20。
这种结构的样品检测仪按如下进行操作。样品容器6由带式运送机8运送，由停止机构(未示出)停止在照相机设定位置并通过光学传感器2进行检测。响应光学传感器2的检测信号，控制器50工作将控制信号C1供给到位置控制单元20的马达21并将控制信号C2供给到红外CCD照相机10。这样，当马达21向前旋转时，导螺杆23也向前旋转而且滑块24向上移动。因此，红外CCD照相机10在向上移动时对容器6进行照像。
当容器6被照像时，粘贴到容器6外表面的条形码6a以各种方向取向。例如，在图2中，从照相机10看它位于标记A所指的容器6的后面，以标记B所指的水平取向，以及以标记C所指的与照相机10相反。既然如此，然而，照相机10是红外照相机，它可以没有任何问题透过容器6对样品S照像，不管条形码6a如何取向。
可视图像转换器31把由照相机10照的样品S的红外图像转换成可视图像。由于可视图像显示在图像显示器34上，因此它可以被适时地监控。图像信号处理单元32把可视图像转换成适合于测量样品数量的信号。响应该信号，样品数量测量单元33测量出样品S的数量(或检测容器6中是否装有样品)。换句话说，单元33检测样品S比如血液是否以给定数量装入容器6中并将结果的测量信号指示发送到主计算机等等。
上述测量信号作为返回指令信号被供给到控制器50。因此控制器50启动执行复位控制操作，结果红外CCD照相机10被位置控制单元20降低并回到初始位置，并且照相机停止操作。这样照相机10为下一个样品容器6准备。
重复上述操作，由带式运送机8运送的每个样品容器6中的样品数量能被非常有效率地检测。
(具体实施方式的特点)
[1]根据本发明具体实施方式的样品检测仪，包括：
由筒架型容器固定器7垂直定位并由带式运送机8运送的样品容器6；
被构造成获取样品容器6的红外图像的红外CCD照相机10；
把由红外CCD照相机10获取的红外图像转换成可视图像的可视图像转换器31；
将红外图像或者可视图像之一处理并转换成适合于测量样品数量的信号的图像信号处理单元32；以及
响应由图像信号处理单元32处理后的信号对测量装在样品容器6中样品数量的样品数量测量单元33。
在如上所述的样品检测仪中，红外CCD照相机对装在样品容器6中的样品照像并进行检测。因此样品能够被容易和准确地检测，甚至在带式运送机8正在运送样品容器6的时候。也可以没有任何问题对样品进行检测，即使其周围黑暗或者容器6的外表面被贴上条形码。
[2]根据以上条款[1]的样品检测仪，还包括用于当样品容器6来到照相机10前面时启动操作红外CCD照相机10和当样品数量测量单元33发送测量信号时停止操作照相机10的控制方法。
(修改)
供给本发明的具体实施方式的样品检测仪具有以下的修改：
当红外CCD照相机10降低时，它获取样品容器6的照片。
