[0034] The suspension preparation instrument 1 is the core part of the whole device, and the preparation bin 2 provided in the inside provides a closed working environment for the preparation of cell suspension, and ensures the sterile condition in the operation process

[0035] The inner end of the preparation bin 2 is provided with a centrifugal rotating plate, the upper end of the centrifugal rotating plate is fixedly connected with the suspension cylinder 4, and the embedded ring groove 5 is embedded and installed at the inner end of the suspension cylinder 4.

[0036] The embedded ring groove 5 is slidably connected with the centrifugal counterweight cylinder 6, the lower end of the centrifugal counterweight cylinder 6 is fixedly connected with the upper end of the positioning spring 7, and the lower end inner surface of the embedded ring groove 5 is fixedly connected with the lower end of the positioning spring 7.

[0037] The contact surface of the centrifugal rotating plate and the suspension cylinder 4 is through connection, the embedded groove is embedded and installed on the inner surface of the suspension cylinder 4, and the positioning shaft 8 is fixedly connected with the embedded groove.

[0038] The outer end of the positioning shaft 8 is movably connected with the positioning rod 9, the upper end of the positioning rod 9 is fixedly connected with the hook plate 10, and the lower end of the hook plate 10 is in contact with the outer surface of the upper end of the centrifugal counterweight cylinder 6.

[0039] The outer end of the hook plate 10 is connected through the outer ring groove 11, and the outer ring groove 11 is embedded in the inner end of the suspension cylinder 4, and the outer ring groove 11 is movably connected with the silica gel ring 12.

[0040] Preparation of the structure of the bin 2:

[0041] Suspension cylinder 4: as the main container for directly bearing the suspension, the inner embedded ring groove 5 is used to accommodate the centrifugal counterweight cylinder 6, which ensures the safety and stability of the suspension tube 3 during the centrifugal process;

[0042] Centrifugal counterweight cylinder 6: by being connected with the positioning spring 7, it can automatically adjust the position with or without the suspension tube 3, maintain the balance state, and avoid the instability of centrifugation caused by uneven weight distribution;

[0043] Positioning spring 7: connected to the bottom of the inner embedded ring groove 5 and the lower end of the centrifugal counterweight cylinder 6, it provides elastic support and adjusts the position change of the centrifugal counterweight cylinder 6 to adapt to the mass balance requirements under different conditions;

[0044] Positioning shaft 8 and positioning rod 9: constitute part of the positioning system, wherein the positioning shaft 8 is fixed in the inner embedded groove, and the positioning rod 9 is movably connected with the positioning shaft 8 to realize the function of moving up and down, further controlling the position of the hook plate 10;

[0045] Hook plate 10: located at the upper end of the positioning rod 9, used to limit the highest position of the centrifugal counterweight cylinder 6 to prevent excessive movement; at the same time, cooperated with the silica gel ring 12 in the outer ring groove 11, it forms the outer protective layer of the suspension tube 3, enhancing the sealing performance;

[0046] Outer ring groove 11 and silica gel ring 12: under the joint action, the silica gel ring 12 can not only tightly cover the suspension tube 3, but also can freely stretch and contract in the outer ring groove 11, adapting to the putting in or taking out of the suspension tube 3, ensuring the sealing while not affecting the operation convenience;

[0047] Centrifugal rotating plate: fixed at the top of the suspension cylinder 4, it is the key component for driving the rotation of the suspension cylinder 4, and the through connection between it and the suspension cylinder 4 ensures the smooth transmission of the rotating action.

[0048] When the suspension tube 3 is placed in the suspension cylinder 4, as the centrifugal rotating plate starts, if the suspension cylinder 4 is not filled with the suspension tube 3, the centrifugal counterweight cylinder 6 is lowered to the lowest point due to gravity, and through the action of the positioning rod 9, the positioning shaft 8 and other components, the cylinder and other suspension cylinders 4 filled with the suspension tube 3 can still maintain the same center of gravity position in the centrifugal state, so as to achieve the dynamic balance of the overall system. This design effectively solves the problem of low centrifugal efficiency and poor effect caused by uneven weight distribution in the traditional method. In particular, the setting of the silica gel ring 12 not only enhances the stability of the suspension tube 3, but also improves the sealing performance of the overall device, which is crucial for biological sample processing and helps to improve the quality and purity of the cell suspension.

[0049] In use, when the suspension tube 3 is centrifuged, some suspension cylinders 4 in the preparation bin 2 may not be placed with the suspension tube 3, which will cause the centrifugal motion process, the inertia forces of the empty suspension cylinder 4 and the suspension cylinder 4 placed with the suspension tube 3 are inconsistent, which will affect the centrifugal effect. In this process, the inner end of the suspension cylinder 4 is connected to the centrifugal counterweight cylinder 6 through the positioning spring 7 and the embedded ring groove 5, and the moving height of the centrifugal counterweight cylinder 6 is limited by the hook plate 10 at the upper end of the centrifugal counterweight cylinder 6. After the suspension tube 3 is placed in the suspension cylinder 4, the centrifugal counterweight cylinder 6 moves downward, driving the positioning rod 9 connected to the hook plate 10 to recover to the center. The power source for the central recovery comes from the silica gel ring 12 wrapped in the outer ring groove 11. Through the setting of the silica gel ring 12, the outer surface of the suspension tube 3 can be stably wrapped, and the surface of the silica gel ring 12 can stably adhere to the surface of the suspension tube 3, ensuring the stability of the centrifugation of the suspension tube 3. In addition, during the centrifugal motion, the empty suspension cylinder 4 is positioned by the upward moving centrifugal counterweight cylinder 6, which can ensure the stability and uniformity of the overall centrifugation.

[0050] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions described in the present application and are not limited to the technical solutions described in the present application. Although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the above embodiments, the present application is not limited to the above specific embodiments. Therefore, any modification or equivalent replacement of the present application; and all technical solutions and improvements within the spirit and scope of the present application are covered by the claims of the present application.
