The development of Inspection Machine for a blood virus infection

바이러스 감염 판별용 혈액 검사기 개발

This paper deals with the design and analysis of automatic virus infection machine, which can be used in blood testing at veterinary hospital. It consists of the mechanical positioning parts and electrical control parts. Two of driving motor and ball screws are used to move the liquid container into the test position and mix the blood on litmus paper. In addition, a thermal controller is installed to keep the container temperature on constant level. The user interface using with a LCD and some keys are supplied with a 8-bit single chip controller. All of the designs issue related with the mechanism and controllers are discussed in detail. Finally the proposed machine is tested in real experiment with the formal processing to judge the virus infection, and also the usefulness of designed algorithm is verified through the experiments.
