Fig. 1 is a specimen collection system axonmetric chart that assembles.Fig. 2 is a specimen collection system axonmetric chart of taking apart.This system comprises container 110, lid 115, piston shell 120, piston 125 and a detecting element, as test card 130 (test card 130 as shown in Figure 2).Describe each parts of system below in detail.
Container 110 in the specimen collection system is used to collect fluid sample, and separate cavities is used for isolating a part of sample from whole sample.Insert a detecting element by covering 115, open sealing member promotion piston 125 and be manoeuvred into container 110, can at an easy rate a part of fluid sample be separated from whole sample.Thereby make the part of fluid sample flow to separate cavities.
Testing element shown in the figure is a test card 130, but also can be any device that can be used for assay samples.The size and dimension of test card should guarantee can be inserted in the container 110, and detail is as described below.The size and dimension that it should be noted that test card 130 can change to some extent.
With reference to figure 1 and Fig. 2, container 110 general appearances are cup-shapeds, and an end opening upwards can the splendid attire fluid sample with Bedpan 110.An opening of the top edge 128 (as shown in Figure 2) on the container 110 is used to receive fluid.In addition, the top edge 128 on the container has the screw thread that is complementary with the screw thread of lid on 115, can make cover 115 and container 110 be bound up.The assembling mode of other kinds also can be used for connecting covers 115 and container 110, such as press insert type or bayonet type.
As can be seen from Figure 1, the ring flange 134 that lid 115 has a pedestal 132 and extends downwards, its shape is consistent with the edge 128 on the container 110, so that ring flange 134 can match with edge 128, such as insert ring flange 134 on edge 128.As shown in the figure, pedestal 132 has a ring-shaped depression base, can place another container 110 at lid 115 tops like this.What need prompting is that pedestal 132 also can be flat, will tell about in addition below.
The inner surface of ring flange 134 has screw thread to match with edge 128 on the container 110.To cover 115 by this spiral marking connection mode is bound up with container 110.Such as, will cover 115 during installation and be placed on the container 110 and swivelling cover 115, the screw thread of container 110 top edges 128 is bound up with covering the threaded engagement on 115.Between lid 115 and container 110, to place one at least and seal (as shown in Figure 2) such as O RunddichtringO 210.
Can see that from Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 test card slot 135 is passed and covered 115 pedestal 132.The size of test card slot 135 and test card 130 are complementary, and will at length introduce below.The shape and size of test card slot 135 are consistent with the shape and size of test card 130, so that in use can smoothly test card 130 be inserted in the test card slot 135.More particularly, the shape of test card 130 is level and smooth rectangles.Correspondingly, the shape of test card slot 135 is rectangular, and test card 130 is inserted smoothly.Test card slot 135 also can be other shape so that match with difform test card 130 in fact.
As shown in Figure 2, the centrage in hole 215 and lid 115 central lines, the degree of depth in hole will guarantee at least to pack into the part of piston shell 120.The top in hole 215 and bottom are openings, the chamber that extends out downwards of tegmentum 115 218 sealings all around.The shape of chamber 218 is consistent with the external shape of piston shell 120.In this way, after system was assembled, hole 215 can receive piston shell 120.In cited embodiment, piston shell 120 and chamber 218 are cylindraceous, can certainly be other shapes.Test card slot 135 is also passed chamber 218.
As depicted in figs. 1 and 2, intersect with test card slot 135 in hole 215, so that the space is positioned at the center of groove.Groove chamber 220 (as shown in Figure 2) is with test card slot 135 sealings.Extend downwards from covering pedestal 132 places groove chamber 220, and 218 stretch out from the chamber.
The top part of groove chamber 220 and piston shell 120 has formed inner fluid segregation chamber 225 (as shown in Figure 4) jointly, and this part will at length be told about below.Test card slot 135 communicates with fluid segregation chamber 225, provides a passage to make test card 130 can be inserted into fluid segregation chamber 225.As described below, in use, fluid segregation chamber 225 receiving unit fluid sample from container 110 when piston 125 moves down.
With reference to figure 2, the shape of piston shell 120 be one extended cylindrical.Piston shell 120 has a ring-type lining 121.Plunger shaft 230 vertically extends through piston shell 120.Plunger shaft 230 forms a space at the top of piston shell 120, and this spatial size matches with piston 125.Plunger shaft 230 is sealed (as shown in Figure 3) in its bottom by the bottom 122 of piston shell 120.Low side in piston shell 120 has a fluid inflow entrance 240 of being made up of a hole or opening at least.
A pair of relative test card slot 235 is passed through the top of piston shell 120.Test card slot 235 and the test card slot 135 on lid 115 are point-blank after assembling.As shown in Figure 1, the test card slot 135 in lid 115 and single cavity of the 235 common formation of the test card slot in piston shell 120 are so that test card 130 can be passed.
With reference to figure 2, piston 125 comprises an elongated piston arm 250.Fluid flow cavity 252 vertically extends through piston arm 250, thereby fluid flow cavity 252 has formed the opening that passes piston arm 250 tops and bottom.Fluid can enter into fluid segregation chamber 225 from container 110 by fluid flow cavity.
Still with reference to figure 2, director element 255 is spaced apart along piston arm 250 length.Director element 255 is made up of the projection that extends outward from piston arm 250.Have at least the shape and size of a director element 255 and the shape and size in the inner carrier chamber 230 on the piston shell 120 to be consistent.In this way, piston 125 can no big displacement swingingly slide up and down the adjustment that realizes the position under the guiding of director element 255 in plunger shaft 230.Director element 255 can be combined closely with the inwall of plunger shaft 230, thereby prevents that fluid from flowing between the inwall of plunger shaft 230 and director element 255.In cited embodiment, piston 125 comprises and is positioned at piston arm 250 vertical director element 255a, is positioned at the director element 255b at piston arm 250 middle parts and is positioned at the director element 255c of piston arm 250 bottoms.Certainly, piston 125 can comprise more or less director element 255, and director element 255 can and be distributed on the piston arm 250 with different positions.
The specimen collection system that assembles can be by being explained in more detail with reference to figure 3 and Fig. 4.Fig. 3 is the cutaway view that the system under this assembled state cuts open along the 3-3 line in Fig. 1, and Fig. 4 is the system's cutaway view that 4-4 along the line cuts open in Fig. 1 under this assembled state.According to Fig. 3, under assembled state, lid 115 is bound up with container 110 tops.The front was mentioned, and lid 115 and container 110 all have screw thread, can make cover 115 and container 110 connect by screw thread.Adding one or more O type circles between lid 115 and container 110 seals.Lid 115 and container 110 can use other bind modes to connect.
With reference to figure 3, after system assembles was got up, piston shell 120 was total to centrage with chamber 218, can make chamber 218 at least around a part of piston shell 120 like this.The upper end of piston shell 120 is supported by lid 115, and piston shell 120 remaining parts extend downwardly into container 110.In this regard, there is a flange 310 on the top of piston shell 120, is positioned at the sagging pedestal 315 that covers on 115, so that smooth installation cover 115 and piston shell 120.We can say that piston shell 120 and lid 115 form an integral body.Can be assembled into the different assemblies of fluid collection system according to design and manufacturer's standard by one or more composite members.
In one embodiment, the size of piston shell 120 must design the bottom that is positioned at container 110 with assurance fluid intake 240 when piston shell 120 is positioned at hole 215.Such design has improved the probability that fluid sample in container 110 flow into fluid intake 240.Certainly, the position of fluid intake 240 can change to some extent.
With reference to figure 3, slide in the plunger shaft 230 of piston 125 in piston shell 120.Mentioned above, the shape and size of director element 255 will be consistent with the size and dimension of plunger shaft 230 in the piston shell 120.In this way, piston 125 can be implemented in slip and firm location in the plunger shaft 230 by combining closely of director element 255 outward flanges and plunger shaft 230 inwalls.Locate in this way, piston arm 255 axle center overlap with the vertical axis 317 of plunger shaft 230.
As shown in Figure 4, the length L of piston 125 is shorter than the length L 1 of plunger shaft 230.Correspondingly, relative length provides corresponding space in plunger shaft 230, guarantees can move up and down in the plunger shaft 230 of piston 125 in piston shell 120.
At initial position as shown in Figure 3, the top of piston 125 be positioned at piston shell 120 near.Mentioned above, the length L of piston 125 is smaller than the length L 1 of plunger shaft 230.When piston 125 is in original state, the bottom of piston 125 is positioned at the top of fluid intake 240 on the piston shell 120.In addition, length L and L1 have guaranteed to form an apotheca 318 in plunger shaft 230 lower ends.The director element 255c of piston 120 lower ends has constituted the upper end of apotheca 318.The inwall of piston shell 120 has constituted the wall all around of apotheca 318, and the interior bottom wall 122 of piston shell 120 has constituted the lower end of apotheca 318.
Fluid flow cavity 252 has formed first opening on piston 125 upper ends, and this first opening communicates with fluid segregation chamber 225 when this piston moves down.Fluid flow cavity 252 communicates with apotheca 318 by second opening that is positioned at piston 125 bottoms.This second opening provides a passage for fluid flows to fluid flow cavity 252 from apotheca 318.In order to make fluid incoming fluid flow cavity 252, promote piston 125 it is moved down along apotheca 318, detail is as described below.
As shown in Figure 3, sealing member 320 is positioned at the top of piston 125.The upper end open that sealing member 320 covers fluid flow cavity 252 is fully sentenced and is prevented that fluid from flowing into separate cavities 225 from fluid flow cavity.In one embodiment, sealing member 320 is made the band shape by cohesive material, and its size and dimension must guarantee the opening of fluid flow cavity 252 upper ends is covered fully.The material of sealing member 320 will guarantee having under the enough big pressure and can be opened.
According to discussed above, cover a part of 115 at least and form fluid segregation chamber 225 and communicate with test card slot 135.From Fig. 4, can see this point in more detail.Fluid segregation chamber 225 is cells that are included in groove chamber 220 and the piston shell 120.As described below, the part of test card 130 can be inserted in the influent stream body separate cavities 225 by groove 135 and the groove in the piston shell 120 235 that covers in 115 at least.Bottom design in test card 130 has a kind of structure, can open sealing member when test card 130 is inserted in the groove.Embodiment shown in Figure 2, test chart 130 comprise a sting device of being made up of sharp thrust 155, and this device is used to wear out sealing member 320.
Use as for this specimen collection system can be described with reference to figure 5-10 at this.The first step, a fluid sample is first collected in the container 110.Give an example, provide biological sample jointly by design containers 110 and separable lid 115.This object is collected fluid sample in the container 110 by the mode that slowly flows into then.Can certainly provide sample by alternate manner.Lid 115 can be used with container 110, can perhaps can use other some frame for movements such as the mode by spiral lid 115 and container 110 secure fit together.Therefore, by the container 110 of screwing hermetic, just as shown in Figure 5, can be used for containing fluid sample 510.Sample 510 is contained in the primary tank 512 that is arranged in container 110, and wherein, the separate cavities 225 in primary tank 512 and the container 110 is (as shown in Figure 7) of separating.Have at least the sample 510 of a part 240 to flow in the apotheca 318, shown in arrow among Fig. 5 514 by entering the mouth.
In this process, the fluid sample in apotheca 318 can not flow into fluid flow cavity 252, because this fluid flow cavity 252 comprises air, and uses sealing member 320 with its sealing or be closed in its upper end.In addition, formed a hermetically-sealed construction at the inwall of the director element 255c of bottom and piston shell 120 and prevented that any fluid from flowing between the inwall of director element 255c and piston shell 120.Therefore, this bottom guide member 255c can stop sample upwards to flow to bottom guide member 255c through piston shell 120.Even some fluid samples should incoming fluid flow cavity 252,, sealing member 320 stoped sample 510 to flow in the separate cavities 225 thereby having covered the top of sample 510.
With reference to figure 6 and Fig. 7, test chart 130 is in turn inserted in the test card slot of covering in 115.Test chart 130 moves down, and the ledge 155 that is positioned at test chart 130 bottoms is worn out sealing member 320, like this just passes a hole on sealing member 320.This sealing member that is the worse for wear 320 can provide the space of an opening between the upper end of fluid flow cavity 252 and separate cavities 225 so.Can well find out that from Fig. 7 the bottom of test chart 130 puts in the separate cavities 225 via test card slot.In this operational phase, separate cavities 225 is empty.That is to say that do not hold any sample 510 in the separate cavities this moment.
As can be seen from Figure 7, the upper end of the bottom of test chart 130 and piston 125 is adjacent.More particularly, although test chart 130 can be adjacent with the other parts of piston 125, the bottom of test chart 130 and top director element 255a also are adjacent.When test chart 130 was in as shown in the figure position with respect to piston 125, test chart 130 can be used to promote piston 125 along piston shell 120 downward directions.
With reference to 8, one users of figure along downward direction push to test card 130.Because test chart 130 is adjacent with the upper end of piston 125, so when test chart 130 moves down, test chart 130 will promote piston 125 and move downwards.Therefore the director element 255c of the bottom of piston 125 is also to the slide inside of apotheca 318, and reduced the capacity of apotheca 318.Because it is to the apotheca slide inside, so in apotheca 318, the director element 255c of bottom has occupied some fluidic spaces.
When above-mentioned action took place, the director element 255c of bottom moved down from fluid intake 240, as shown in Figure 8.As last said, the bonding part between the director element 255c of bottom and the inwall of plunger shaft 230 seals, and flow into 240 li of fluid intakes so director element 255c can prevent sample 510.Therefore, the fluid sample 510 in the apotheca 318 just can not flow out from apotheca 318 through fluid intake 240.Because moving downward of piston 125 so the capacity of apotheca 318 descends, causes fluid sample 510 upwards to flow in the fluid flow cavity 252 via the hole of piston 125 bottoms, shown in the arrow among Fig. 8 810.Said as the front, sealing member 320 has been the worse for wear, and causes the upper end of fluid flow cavity 252 open, therefore when fluid sample flow into fluid flow cavity 252, can exclude the air in the fluid flow cavity 252.
As Fig. 9 and shown in Figure 10,, cause the part 910 in the fluid sample 510 that is stored in the apotheca 318 to continue upwards to flow by fluid flow cavity 252 because piston 125 moves downward.Finally, the part 910 of fluid sample 510 flow in the separate cavities 225 via fluid flow cavity 252 open upper ends.Therefore, the part 910 of fluid sample 510 can be full of the segment space of separate cavities 225 at least, as Fig. 9 and shown in Figure 10.If the said generation in front, test chart 130 has moved down, so test chart 130 has at least a part also to extend in the separate cavities 225.If so, test chart 130 will directly touch the fluid sample that is contained in the separate cavities 225.
Second embodiment of this specimen collection system described now.Unless other mark is arranged, the same parts of same digitized representation.With reference to Figure 11 and Figure 12, second embodiment comprises container 110 and lid 115.Groove 135 directly is installed in and covers on 115.
Can well find out that from Figure 12 therefore sealing strip 1210 can sealing cover groove 135 well covering running fix on 115.Sealing strip 1210 can use flexible well material manufacture.Bottom gasket 1205 directly is fixed on groove 135 following covering.
Still with reference to Figure 12, piston shell 1210 comprises a cap interface 1211, this interface have one can with lid 115 bottoms intermeshing structure.In said embodiment, cap interface 1211 has the parts of the disc shape of a circle, and these parts meet the shape of covering 115 bottoms, therefore can make this cap interface and lid 115 engagement very smoothly.Certainly, we agree that also cap interface 1211 can make other shape.
In addition, piston shell 1210 also comprises a container holder 1217, and this container holder can encase internal segregation chamber 225 at least partially or entirely, and test chart 130 can be inserted in this separate cavities 225 via groove 135.Here, being used for the groove 1218 of correspondence of acceptance test card 130 is fixed on 1211 li of cap interface.
In addition, piston shell 1210 also comprises cylindrical member 1212, and these parts extend downwards from cap interface 1211.Embodiment as the front is said, and this cylindrical member 1212 comprises the plunger shaft 230 of an inside, and piston 125 can slide at this intracavity.On cylindrical member 1212, be provided with a fluid intake 240 at least, can provide a fluid that communicates with plunger shaft 230 to flow into point like this.
