The number of the clamping jaws 111 is two, and the guide component is a cam 113 with unequal length and width. The cam 113 is located between the two clamping jaws 111, and the driving assembly drives the cam 113 to rotate so as to change the outer contour of the contact between the cam 113 and the two clamping jaws 111, and the two clamping jaws 111 are ejected or the two clamping jaws 111 are loosened under the action of the pushing force of the resetting member, so that the sliders 116 connected with the two opposite clamping jaws 111 move along the guide rails 115, thereby changing the distance between the two clamping jaws 111 and further changing the size of the clamping area 1111. The widest part of the cam 113 is larger than the narrowest part of the reaction cup 200, so that the clamping area 1111 of the widest part of the cam 113 after the two clamping jaws 111 are jacked open can release the clamping of the reaction cup 200; the narrowest part of the cam 113 is smaller than the widest part of the reaction cup 200, so that the narrowest part of the cam 113 can clamp the reaction cup 200 or a clamping area when the narrowest part of the cam 113 does not contact with the two clamping jaws 111, namely, the two clamping jaws 111 can be jacked open or loosened along with the rotation of the cam 113.

The clamping jaws 111 are provided with a protrusion (not shown), a clamping area 1111 is formed between the protrusions of the two clamping jaws 111, and the surface of the protrusion for clamping the reaction cup 200 is provided with a plurality of ribs 1111a for increasing the clamping force. In one embodiment, the clamping jaw 111 and the protrusion on the clamping jaw 111 form an "L" shape, the two clamping jaws 111 are aligned to form a "U" shape, and the clamping area 1111 is disposed at the bottom of the "U" shape. The clamping region 1111 is formed by a semicircular space formed by the grooves on the projections of the two clamping jaws 111, the size of the semicircular space is determined according to the size relation of the clamped part of the reaction cup 200 to be clamped, when the two clamping jaws 111 are close to each other, the formed clamping region 1111 can wrap the reaction cup 200 and has opposite acting force on the reaction cup 200, so that the reaction cup 200 is not easy to fall off; when the two clamping jaws 111 are far away from each other, the formed clamping area 1111 can easily separate the reaction cup 200. In one embodiment, when the two clamping jaws 111 abut against each other, the clamping area 1111 is formed to just clamp the reaction cup 200, and the semicircular space formed between the protrusions of the two clamping jaws 111 can better protect the reaction cup 200.

The clamping area 1111 is matched with the outer contour shape of the reaction cup 200, for example, the reaction cup 200 is a cylinder, and the cross section of the clamping area 1111 is circular when the two clamping jaws are abutted; the reaction cup is a cuboid, the cross section of the clamping area 1111 is rectangular when the two clamping jaws 111 are abutted, so that the clamping area 1111 and the reaction cup 200 can be attached and clamped conveniently, and the reaction cup 200 can be clamped quickly.

The driving component is a motor 112, and the driving end of the motor 112 is connected with the cam 113 to drive the cam 113 to rotate.

The guide rail device further comprises a first fixing part 155, and the guide rail 115 is arranged on the first fixing part 155. The first fixing member 155 is provided with a through hole (not shown) through which the driving end of the motor 112 rotates.

When the cam 111 rotates to enable the distance between the clamping jaws 111 on the two sides of the cam 111 to be larger than the clamped position of the reaction cup 200, the two clamping jaws 111 respectively outwards prop against the springs 1141 on the corresponding outer sides of the two clamping jaws, and the springs 1141 are compressed and deformed, namely the two clamping jaws 1131 are propped open by the cam 1131, so that the manipulator body 110 loosens the reaction cup; when the clamping area 1111 has no force applied thereto by the cuvette 200, the two jaws approach each other under the force applied when the corresponding springs 1141 are deformed and restored, until the two jaws 111 abut against each other or clamp the cuvette 200.

In an embodiment, when the cuvette 200 is clamped by the clamping area 1111, the cam 113 is not in contact with the outer walls of the two clamping jaws 111 at the two sides, and the springs 1141 at the outer sides of the two clamping jaws 111 can respectively apply a force to the corresponding clamping jaws 111, so that the two clamping jaws 111 move relatively, thereby improving the clamping strength of the cuvette 200 and the clamping firmness.

It will be appreciated that the force of the spring 1141 outside the two jaws 111 on the jaws 111 to move the two jaws 111 closer together is greater than the opposing force of the reaction cup 200 on the jaws 111, so that the jaws 111 are effectively clamped by the guide bar return spring 141.

In one embodiment, the shape and size of the protruding ridge 1111a match the shape and size of the outer contour of the portion of the reaction cup 200 to be clamped. For example, if the clamped portion of the cuvette 200 has a ring-shaped protrusion, the clamping area 1111 is provided with a rib 1111a at the upper and lower sides corresponding to the position of the ring-shaped protrusion, so that the ring-shaped protrusion on the cuvette is clamped into the space formed between the ribs 1111a at the upper and lower sides of the clamping area 1111, thereby improving the clamping firmness. For example, the clamped portion of the reaction cup 200 is provided with a plurality of vertical bar concave-convex patterns, and the clamping area 1111 is provided with a plurality of vertical bar convex ridges 1111a matched with the vertical bar concave-convex patterns on the reaction cup 200 in shape, size and position, so as to increase the clamping friction.

The motor 112 is located in the containing cavity, a first through hole 1561 is formed in a side wall of the second fixing member 156 opposite to the first fixing member 155, and a shaft 161 of the transfer mechanism is connected to the first through hole 1561. The second fixing member 156 is further provided with two second through holes 1562, the second through holes 1562 are connected to the first through holes 1561 through the outer wall of the second fixing member, and the shaft 161 of the transfer mechanism is fixed to the inner wall of the first through hole 1561 by passing a screw through the second through hole 1562.

Since the optical coupler 1842 has a certain length, a through hole (not shown in the figure) through which the optical coupler 1842 passes is formed in the first fixing member 155. When the two clamping jaws 111 abut against each other, namely the two clamping jaws are in an unclamped state and are in an initial position, namely a zero position, when the blocking piece 1841 moves along with the movement of the clamping jaws 111, the light blocking effect of the blocking piece 1841 on the light coupler 1842 is changed, and the rotation condition of the cam 113 is detected. In addition, the abrasion condition of the cam 1131 of the cam 113 can be detected, and when the cam 1131 is abraded seriously, the distance of the cam 1131 for ejecting the two clamping jaws 111 is not enough, and the light blocking effect of the blocking piece 1841 on the light coupler 1842 is weakened.
