Probe assembly with a light hood and a detecting instrument equipped with the same

摘要

A probe assembly used in testing instrument for determining optical signal within a test cell, comprising a top plate ( 5;205 ) with a through-hole ( 52;250 ) therein; a cylindrical light hood ( 2;202 ) having a central channel ( 21;221 ); the lower end of the optical pickup ( 1 ) is inserted into said channel ( 21;221 ) and surrounded by said light hood, and said light hood can slide down and up within a small distance isolating said one test cell of the sample being detected from its adjacent cells and surroundings when the lower end of said light hood is in said protruding position, so that the light interference from the adjacent test cells and surroundings with (to) the determination of the sampling being detected can be avoided. Also, the present invention further relates to the light hood included in the probe assembly and the instruments including the probe assembly.
