The injection needle 3 is transferred to the guide sleeve 441 so that the guide sleeve 441 moves relative to the needle holder 45 against the elastic force of the spring 442. In this way, the requirement that the mounting arm 43 continues to move downwards after the sample injection needle 3 abuts against the bottle cap of the sample bottle can be met, so that the sample injection needle 3 is prevented from bending.

Specifically, the lower end of the spring 442 abuts against the burring 4411, and the upper end of the spring 442 abuts against the needle holder 45, so that the spring 442 can be compressed during the upward movement of the guide sleeve 441. And, in the case that the sample bottle is placed in a correct posture, the sample needle 3 can be inserted into the sample bottle against the film on the bottle cap of the sample bottle by using the elastic force provided by the spring 442 to the guide sleeve 441.

Further, a second baffle 464 is disposed at the upper end of the support rod 461, and a second photoelectric sensor 436 is disposed on the mounting arm 43, where the second photoelectric sensor 436 forms a second detection area for detecting the second baffle.

Specifically, during actual use, when the mounting arm 43 moves downward, the guide frame 462 in the guide assembly 46 will abut against the sample bottle, so that the second baffle plate moves relative to the mounting arm 43, and the second baffle plate 464 will be separated from the second detection area formed by the second photoelectric sensor 436, which indicates that the sample bottle is placed in the jack 21 corresponding to the turntable, so that normal sample injection can be performed.

Since there is a possibility that some of the receptacles 21 on the turntable will not receive a sample bottle, and when the receptacles 21 are moved to the sample introduction station below the sample introduction needle 3, the guide 462 will continue to move downward along with the mounting arm 43, the second shutter 464 will also be located all the way into the detection zone two formed by the second photosensor 436. If the descending distance of the mounting arm 43 reaches the set value and the second baffle 464 is always located in the second detection area formed by the second photoelectric sensor 436, it is determined that the sample bottle is not placed in the jack 21, at this time, an alarm can be given, or the turntable is triggered to rotate to switch the other jack 21 to move to the sample feeding station.

Wherein, the top of the cleaning seat 6 is provided with a groove 61, the bottom of the groove 61 is provided with a blind hole 62 and a liquid discharging hole 63, and the blind hole 62 is configured for the insertion of the sample injection needle 3. The sample injection needle 3 is connected with a peristaltic pump 34 through a sample injection valve 32, and the peristaltic pump 34 is selectively connected with a waste liquid container 36 and a pure water container 37 through a reversing valve 35. In addition, the pure water in the pure water container 37 is discharged from the sample injection needle 3 into the blind hole 62 via the peristaltic pump 34, and the overflowed water from the blind hole 62 flows into the waste liquid container 36 via the drain hole 63.

In the actual use process, in the sample injection process of the sample injection needle, the peristaltic pump 34 rotates forward to perform sample injection, the reversing valve 35 switches the peristaltic pump 34 to communicate with the waste liquid container 36, and the specific sample injection process can refer to the description of the third embodiment, which is not repeated herein.

When the sample injection needle needs to be cleaned, the peristaltic pump 34 rotates reversely, and meanwhile, the reversing valve 35 switches the peristaltic pump 34 to be communicated with the pure water container 37. At the same time, the sample injection needle is driven to move and insert into the blind hole 62 by the movement mounting mechanism 4. The water in the pure water container 37 is sucked out and finally discharged from the sample injection needle into the blind hole 62, the liquid level in the blind hole 62 gradually rises along with the increase of the cleaning time, so that the outer wall of the sample injection needle can be cleaned, and excessive water overflows from the blind hole 62 and is discharged from the liquid discharge hole 63 to be conveyed into the waste liquid container 36. In the course of the water in the pure water container 37 being transported in the liquid flow path, the sample injection needle 3, the sample injection valve 32, the dosing ring 33, the peristaltic pump 34, and the reversing valve 35 are cleaned.

Because the aperture of the blind hole 62 is smaller, a smaller amount of water can fill the blind hole 62 to clean the outer wall of the sample injection needle. Also, during the cleaning process, the water in the pure water container 37 is not contaminated by any influence.

Further, in order to avoid splashing of the water output from the sample injection needle into the blind hole 62 during the cleaning process, a cover plate 64 may be further disposed on the upper portion of the cleaning seat 6, a through hole 65 is disposed on the cover plate 64, the cover plate 64 covers the groove 61, and the through hole 65 is disposed opposite to the blind hole 62.

Specifically, the cover plate 64 covers the upper portion of the groove 61 provided on the cleaning seat 6, during the cleaning process, the injection needle is inserted into the blind hole 62 through the through hole 65, and the water sprayed into the blind hole 62 by the injection needle can be blocked by the cover plate 64 at the top, so as to reduce the water splashing.

Still further, a waste liquid container 36 is arranged below the washing seat 6; the drain hole 63 is disposed opposite to the inlet of the waste liquid container 36, or the drain hole 63 communicates with the inlet of the waste liquid container 36.

Specifically, in order to facilitate the discharge of the waste liquid, the waste liquid container 36 may be disposed under the washing base 6, and the waste liquid discharged from the drain hole 63 of the washing base 6 flows into the waste liquid container 36 by gravity. In the case where the inlet size of the waste liquid container 36 is large, the drain hole 63 may be arranged directly above the inlet of the waste liquid container 36, or in the case where the inlet size of the waste liquid container 36 is small, communication may be performed between the drain hole 63 and the inlet of the waste liquid container 36 through a water pipe.

Further, for convenience of assembly, the waste liquid container 36 may be built in the base 1, the base 1 is provided with the socket 16, and the drain pipe of the waste liquid container 36 is inserted in the socket 16.

Specifically, the waste liquid container 36 is built in the base 1, and the drain pipe of the waste liquid container 36 is inserted in the socket 16, so that the user can conveniently drain the waste liquid by externally connecting a water pipe on the drain pipe.

The cleaning seat is configured to assist in cleaning the sample injection needle, the blind hole is formed in the cleaning seat and is used for the sample injection needle to be inserted into the blind hole when the sample injection needle is cleaned, the peristaltic pump sucks the pure water container and outputs the pure water from the sample injection needle so as to realize cleaning of an internal flow path of the sample injection needle, and pure water output from the sample injection needle is discharged into the blind hole so that the water level in the blind hole is quickly increased to submerge the sample injection needle, and further the outer wall of the sample injection needle is cleaned; in addition, in the cleaning process, pure water in the pure water container always keeps a clean state, and the volume of the blind hole is smaller, so that the use amount of pure water is greatly reduced in the cleaning process, the cleaning effect on the inside and outside of the sample injection needle is improved, the use amount of cleaning liquid is reduced, and the use cost is reduced.
