In the description of the present invention, unless there is an explicit limitation, the words such as setting, installation, connection, etc. should be understood in a broad sense, and those skilled in the art can reasonably determine the specific meanings of the above words in combination with the specific contents of the technical solution.
It can be known that the lower end of the existing magnetic rod sleeve is conical, the outer surface of the lower end of the magnetic rod sleeve is an outer conical wall, an inner cavity for the magnetic rod to extend into is arranged on the magnetic rod sleeve, the lower end of the inner cavity is also conical, the inner surface of the lower end of the inner cavity is an inner conical wall, and the outer cylindrical surface of the magnetic rod sleeve is an outer side wall. The lower extreme of current bar magnet is cylindricly, and the lower extreme of bar magnet can make the magnetic bead adsorb in the region between outer conical wall and the lateral wall.
Referring to fig. 1 and 2, the present invention discloses a magnetic head assembly, which comprises a magnetic frame 100 and a plurality of magnetic rods 200, wherein the magnetic frame 100 is used for connecting with a body of a nucleic acid extractor. All the magnetic rods 200 are arranged on the magnetic frame 100, the lower end heads 210 of the magnetic rods 200 are in an inverted round table shape or a conical shape, the lower ends of the magnetic rods 200 can be inserted into the magnetic rod sleeves, and the outer surfaces of the lower end heads 210 can be attached to the inner conical walls on the lower ends of the magnetic rod sleeves.
When the nucleic acid extractor needs to extract transferred nucleic acid, the lower end of the magnetic rod 200 is inserted into the magnetic rod sleeve, so that the outer surface of the lower end head 210 is close to the inner conical wall of the lower end of the inner cavity, and then the magnetic head assembly and the magnetic rod sleeve move downwards together, so that the lower end of the magnetic rod sleeve extends into a sample solution of a sample test tube. Because the lower end head 210 is in an inverted round table shape or a conical shape, the air magnetic resistance at each position of the outer surface of the lower end head 210 is similar to that of the outer conical wall of the magnetic rod sleeve, that is, the magnetic force at each position of the outer conical wall of the magnetic rod sleeve is similar, and the phenomenon that the area between the outer conical wall and the outer side wall is the maximum magnetic force area is avoided, at the moment, the magnetic rod 200 can enable magnetic beads in a sample solution to carry nucleic acid to be attached to the outer conical wall at the lower end of the magnetic rod sleeve, and the magnetic beads are prevented from being attached to the area between the outer conical wall and the outer side wall and/or the outer side wall.
The magnetic beads carry nucleic acid to be attached to the outer conical wall at the lower end of the magnetic rod sleeve, so that the magnetic beads cannot fall off from the magnetic rod sleeve even if the outer side wall of the magnetic rod sleeve slightly collides and interferes with a sample test tube or a reaction tube or other parts when the magnetic head assembly and the magnetic rod sleeve are synchronously transferred; when the magnetic rod 200 is drawn out from the magnetic rod sleeve, the magnetic pulling phenomenon is avoided, so that the magnetic beads are prevented from being firmly attached to the outer side wall of the magnetic rod sleeve. The magnetic head assembly finally enables the number of the magnetic beads on the magnetic rod sleeve to fall into a reaction tube or other containers, reduces the loss of the magnetic beads and nucleic acid when the magnetic beads are transferred, improves the bead rate, further enables the concentration of the nucleic acid to be higher, and is beneficial to the detection of the nucleic acid.
In another description of the angle, the outer circular sidewall of the lower end head 210 is formed with an inclined surface, any straight line parallel to the inclined surface and the center line of the magnetic rod 200 are in the same plane, and the straight line and the center line form an included angle, which is 30 ° to 71 °. Too small an angle may result in too sharp lower tip 210, and too large an angle may result in too blunt lower tip 210, so too small and too large an angle is not desirable.
It can be understood that, when the taper of the lower end head 210 is the same as the taper of the lower end of the magnetic rod sleeve, that is, when the distances between the outer surface of the lower end head 210 and the inner conical wall/outer conical wall of the magnetic rod sleeve are the same, the magnetic force at each position of the outer conical wall of the magnetic rod sleeve is uniform, which is beneficial for the magnetic beads to be adsorbed on the outer conical wall of the magnetic rod sleeve, and prevents the magnetic beads from being adsorbed on the region between the outer conical wall and the inner conical wall of the magnetic rod sleeve and/or the outer side wall of the magnetic rod sleeve.
In this embodiment, the taper of the lower end head 210 of the magnetic rod 200 is 1:1-3:1, and the taper range conforms to the existing magnetic rod sleeves with various specifications. Certainly, the taper of the lower end head 210 cannot be too large or too small, the outer wall of the magnetic rod 200 is firstly abutted against the inner side wall of the magnetic rod sleeve when the taper is too large, and the outer surface of the lower end head 210 is not close to the inner conical wall of the magnetic rod sleeve; an understeer tends to result in a central region of the outer surface of the lower tip 210 abutting a central region of the inner taper wall of the sleeve, while a non-central region of the outer surface of the lower tip 210 is not yet proximate the inner taper wall of the sleeve.
It can be understood that the magnetic poles of the lower ends 210 of two adjacent magnetic rods 200 are opposite, that is, a magnetic field loop can be formed between the lower ends 210 of two adjacent magnetic rods 200, so that the magnetic force of the lower ends 210 is greater, and the ability of the lower ends 210 to adsorb magnetic beads is stronger.
It is understood that the number of the magnetic rods 200 is any one of 48, 56, 64, 72, 80, 88, 96 and 102, and the number of the magnetic rods 200 can be set according to actual situations.

When the magnetic rod 200 and the mounting plate 110 are connected in a threaded connection mode, the upper end of the magnetic rod 200 is provided with an external thread, the mounting hole 112 is a threaded hole, and the external thread is matched with the internal thread of the threaded hole. When the magnetic rod 200 is connected with the mounting plate 110 by using the adhesive, the upper end of the magnetic rod 200 is inserted into the mounting hole 112, and then the adhesive is filled between the upper end of the magnetic rod 200 and the inner wall of the mounting hole 112.
