Abstract

An analysis cartridge comprising a cartridge body, a first cover, a liquid storage box and a sealing film is disclosed. The cartridge body has an accommodation portion and a first side and a second side opposite to the first side. The first cover covers the first side or the second side of the cartridge body and has a first through hole. The liquid storage box is disposed in the accommodation portion and has a liquid through hole. The sealing film seals the liquid through hole of the said liquid storage box and passes through the first through hole of the first cover, wherein the liquid through hole is exposed by removing the sealing film.

Claims (26)

1. An analysis cartridge, comprising:

a cartridge body having an accommodation portion and a first side and a second side opposite to the first side;

a first cover covering the first side or the second side of the cartridge body and having a first through hole;

a liquid storage box disposed within the accommodation portion and having a liquid through hole;

a sealing film used for sealing the liquid through hole of the said liquid storage box and passing through the first through hole of the first cover, wherein the liquid through hole is exposed by removing the sealing film.

2. The analysis cartridge according to claim 1 , wherein the first cover covers the first side of the cartridge body, and the analysis cartridge further comprises:

a second cover covering the second side of the cartridge body.

3. The analysis cartridge according to claim 1 , wherein the liquid storage box comprises:

a box body having a terminal surface, a liquid storage tank and a tank bottom, wherein the liquid storage tank extends to the tank bottom from the terminal surface, and the liquid through hole penetrates the tank bottom; and

a tank cover covering an opening of the liquid storage tank which is formed on the terminal surface of the box body.

4. The analysis cartridge according to claim 1 , wherein the sealing film comprises:

a bonding layer sealing the liquid through hole;

a metal layer; and

an adhesive layer formed between the bonding layer and the metal layer.

5. The analysis cartridge according to claim 1 , wherein a terminal of the sealing film is bended after sealing the liquid through hole, such that another terminal of the sealing film passes through the first through hole of the first cover.

6. The analysis cartridge according to claim 1 , wherein the cartridge body has a liquid channel and a reaction chamber, and the liquid channel interconnects with the reaction chamber and the accommodation portion of the said cartridge body.

7. The analysis cartridge according to claim 6 , wherein the liquid channel has a liquid accumulation tank, a first distribution channel and a second distribution channel, the first distribution channel and the second distribution channel are connected to the liquid accumulation tank, and a distance between the first distribution channel and an axis of a center of the analysis cartridge is larger than that between the second distribution channel and the axis.

8. The analysis cartridge according to claim 1 , wherein the cartridge body further has a second through hole, the sealing film passes through the second through hole of the cartridge body and the first through hole of the first cover.

9. The analysis cartridge according to claim 1 , wherein the first cover covers the second side of the analysis cartridge, the cartridge body further has a second through hole, the liquid storage box has a third through hole, the sealing film passes through the third through hole, the second through hole and the first through hole.

10. The analysis cartridge according to claim 1 , wherein the sealing film is a strip-shaped sealing film.

11. An analysis cartridge, comprising:

a cartridge body having an accommodation portion and a first side and a second side opposite to the first side;

a liquid storage box disposed within the accommodation portion and having a liquid through hole, wherein the liquid storage box comprises a liquid storage tank having an opening and a tank cover covering the opening of the liquid storage tank, and the liquid through hole is formed on the bottom of the liquid storage tank;

a sealing film used for sealing the liquid through hole, wherein the liquid through hole is exposed by removing the sealing film; and

a cover, wherein the cover covers the first side or the second side of the cartridge body and has a cover through hole, and the sealing film passes through said cover through hole.

12. The analysis cartridge according to claim 11 , wherein the liquid through hole of the liquid storage box faces the first side of the cartridge body.
