Description

Pipette tip
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of pipette tip.
Background technology
Together with pipette and other metering device, pipette tip is used for metering liquid.Hereinafter, pipette and metering device are generically and collectively referred to as " pipette device ".Pipette tip has elongate tubular body, and described main body has at the pipette opening of lower end with for the grafting opening on the annex that is plugged into the pipette device.Standardized cone shape annex with standard geometrical shapes is known, its as one man used by many manufacturers and for each pipette tip by the average diameter of conical attachment than and the cone angle ratio be feature.
The pipette device comprises gas discharge element, and described gas is discharged element and normally had axially movable therein cylindrical piston.Gas is discharged the access opening that element is connected to annex.Be pressed into by the annex with pipette in the upper shed of pipette tip, pipette tip is clamped to annex hermetically.
Move air column so that for being positioned at the pipette tip pumping liquid on annex or releasing liquid from it by means of gas discharge element.When air column moved away from pipette tip, a certain amount of liquid was drawn in pipette tip by under shed.By moving air column towards pipette tip, a certain amount of liquid is discharged to outside pipette tip by under shed.
The pipette device has pushing piece usually, and described pushing piece acts on the upper limb of pipette tip to push it open from annex.By like this, avoided the user must contact contaminated pipette tip in order to it is broken away from from annex.
The pipette device can be that the user can be with the hand-held pipette of a grasped and operation.The pipette device can be also measuring station or be incorporated in work station.In all cases, gas discharge element can be manually or by motor operated.The grafting of pipette tip or release also can manually or by motor be undertaken.
For fear of the pipette action of mistake, pipette tip must be fixed on annex hermetically.In addition, being used for pipette tip pegs graft and the power released must be not too high from annex.In conventional pipette tip, the contact area between pipette tip and conical attachment is similar to frustum of a cone.When the grafting pipette tip, pipette tip is flexibly expanded by annex at its circumference.Spring performance is uprushed, and makes to use high mating force.After pegging graft, corresponding high static friction acts between annex and pipette tip.Must overcome this static friction when releasing pipette tip.The user is subject to perplexing for the large active force of grafting and release pipette tip.As long as peg graft and release by motor driver, these must be correspondingly powerful and they have high energy consumption.
Document US6,197,259B1 has described a kind of less axial grafting and the release power annex that easily and securely is installed to pipette or the pipette tip of releasing from described standardized cone shape annex that can be by applying six pounds and three pounds (being respectively 26.7N and 13.3N).This pipette tip has tubulose pipette part, and described tubulose pipette partly has conical upper end, and the internal diameter that has in the top is greater than will the peg graft diameter of annex of pipette thereon of pipette tip.In addition, pipette tip has the annular seal zones of hollow central part and the junction between upper end and middle body.The internal diameter that annular seal zones has is less than value " x " and be designed such that it engages with the lower end of the band of annex, thereby expand towards outer radial ground when inserting annex, produce thus the impenetrable liquid sealing between the sealing area of the band of annex and pipette tip.In addition, pipette tip has the lateral stabilizer near place, the inboard of sealing area, and described lateral stabilizer engages with the outer surface of annex in order to stablize pipette tip on annex.These lateral stabilizers have isolated at least three contacts in a circumferential direction, and described contact extends from the interior face of pipette tip is inner.The size of the diametral distance of contact is determined to be and makes them easily engage and make the lower end of annex to slide and the described sidewall that do not expand along the sidewall of contact pipette tip disposed thereon with the free end of annex.When the side direction External Force Acting during in pipette tip, for example when liquid on wall during landing, contact is realized the lateral support of the pipette tip on annex, in order to prevent that pipette tip from moving to the side.When the lower end of the band of annex engaged the sealing area of pipette tip, pipette tip expanded at sealing area with in being close to its zone.At guiding pipette tip on annex and when stably and safely aiming at it on annex, the sidewall of the supporting contact of pipette tip is to internal strain and do not expand when contact, thus in insertion only small power put on annex.
Document US7,339,373B1 have described a kind of ergonomic designs pipette tip, and it can be plugged on the axle of pipette safely, peg graft simultaneously and release axial force used obviously to reduce.This ergonomics pipette tip is included in the thin expansion clearance of making in injection moulding, described thin expansion clearance is joined by thicker wall section and/or the second elastomeric material side, when introducing in the sealing area of pipette tip with convenient pipette axle according to flexural spring principle reduce the to expand necessary power of upper limb of pipette tip.And pipette tip has one or several projections of side within it, and described projection is intended to limit the pipette axle and enters insertion depth as the pipette tip of disabler.
It is most advanced and sophisticated that document EP1520624B1 has described a kind of plastic suction pipet with elongate tubular body, and described tubular body has at the opening of lower end and is used for being plugged into grafting opening on the fixed axis of pipette device in the upper end.Pipette tip has tie near upper end, described tie along closed curve around and have a different distance from the lower end at different circumferential positions.Have contact area in the inboard around tie, described contact area on Plane of rotation around.Other tie is from farthest the position around tie begins to extend to the upper end from the lower end always.Use is around the contact area on the inboard of tie, and pipette tip contacts with the annex sealing of pipette device.When releasing, the pushing piece of pipette device presses against the other tie of the upper end of pipette tip.By other tie, release power is delivered to from the lower end position around tie farthest.These positions around tie are extruded towards the lower end thus a little.With respect to the directed plane that meets at right angles of the tubular body with pipette tip, be squeezed into more flat a little around tie.Tie forms rigid region in addition, and described rigid region only is subject to than small deformation in the transmission of power.Due to directed across around tie and other tie, therefore can relatively easily be out of shape it by the power of introducing on the direction of other tie.Therefore, expand a little around tie, and correspondingly reduce respectively around the inboard of tie or the static friction between contact area and annex.Therefore, being used for making pipette tip to break away from necessary power from fixed axis reduces.And pipette tip is flexible larger in the zone around tie, makes for the power that it is plugged on annex even to reduce, and helps to be plugged on the fixed axis with different size.
In the pipette tip of above document, the change in size of pipette tip and annex is by the elastic expansion compensation of pipette tip.When the internal diameter of the pipette tip in the holder zone during well below standard size, perhaps when the external diameter of annex during considerably beyond standard size, will produce and be used for the more high-tensile strength of pegging graft and releasing.
