Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of cleaning and is a chemical experiment equipment storage device. Background Art

[0002] Test tubes are common reaction containers in chemical experiments, used to hold chemical reagents for small-dose chemical experiments. They are usually made of glass, which is easy to observe experimental reactions in real time because of its high transparency. At the same time, glass does not react with most reagents, thus ensuring the purity of the chemical experimental environment. After the experiment, the test tubes need to be cleaned so that they can be recycled without affecting subsequent experiments. After cleaning, the test tubes need to be properly stored to avoid damage and loss.

[0003] When a large number of test tubes need to be cleaned, cleaning equipment is often used to clean them to improve cleaning efficiency. However, the cleaned test tubes need to be taken out of the cleaning equipment one by one and placed on the storage rack one by one. This process is cumbersome and time-consuming, and requires careful operation to prevent the test tubes from being contaminated. Therefore, the existing technology has a cumbersome cleaning and storage process for test tubes after use, and it is urgent to design a chemical experiment equipment storage device that does not require the transfer of test tubes to simplify the treatment process of test tubes after use.
