[0031] Specifically, the shovel plate places the freezing box 8 with the freezing tube 9 on the stage 2, and the box pushing device 5 pushes the freezing box 8 to move on the stage 2 along the Y direction. The box pressing device 4 pushes the freezing box 8 to move on the stage 2 along the X direction while pressing the freezing box 8 downward to achieve the positioning of the freezing box 8 on the stage 2, and the positioning of the freezing box 8 on the stage 2 is carried out separately in the X direction and the Y direction, which can meet the positioning requirements of freezing boxes 8 of different specifications and sizes, and has a wider range of applications. Then, the tube jacking clamping device 3 moves to the coordinate position of the target freezing tube 9, takes out the target freezing tube 9 and places it in another empty freezing box 8, thereby completing the tube picking process.

[0032] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the top tube clamping device 3 includes: a fixing member 31, which is fixedly arranged on the base 1; a first driving component 32, a first transmission component 33, a first sliding component 34, a second sliding component 35, a first connecting member 36 and a tube clamping mechanism 37, wherein the first driving component 32 is fixedly arranged on the fixing member 31, the driving end of the first driving component 32 is connected to the first transmission component 33, the first transmission component 33 is fixedly arranged on the first sliding component 34, the first connecting member 36 is connected to the first sliding member 34, the tube clamping mechanism 37 is configured to be able to clamp the cryopreservation tube 9 in the cryopreservation box 8, the tube clamping mechanism 37 is fixedly arranged on the first connecting member 36 and is located above the stage 2, and the first connecting member 36 is slidably arranged on the second sliding member 35.

The first driving assembly 32 transmits power to the first rack 332 through the first gear 331, so as to drive the first sliding member 34 to move up and down relative to the fixing member 31 and the first connecting member 36 to move up and down relative to the second sliding member 35, thereby driving the tube clamping mechanism 37 to move up and down, so that the tube clamping mechanism 37 can clamp the cryopreservation tube 9 in the cryopreservation box 8.

[0034] Continue as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the tube clamping device 3 also includes: a tube clamping positioning mechanism 38, which is configured to fix the clamped cryotube 9, and the tube clamping positioning mechanism 38 is fixedly set on the second sliding member 35, and the tube clamping center of the tube clamping positioning mechanism 38 is concentric with the tube clamping center of the tube clamping mechanism 37 in the vertical direction.

[0035] Specifically, the vertical displacement of the tube clamping positioning mechanism 38 does not change.

Since the tube clamping mechanism 37 may cause the target cryogenic tube 9 to tilt and shake easily when clamping the target cryogenic tube 9, in order to ensure the tube clamping accuracy, at this time, the tube clamping positioning mechanism 38 clamps the end of the cryogenic tube 9 to correct the position of the cryogenic tube 9. After the tube clamping mechanism 37 releases the cryogenic tube 9, it continues to clamp it. The tube clamping positioning mechanism 38 plays a role in secondary positioning of the cryogenic tube 9, thereby improving the clamping accuracy of the cryogenic tube 9 and further improving the subsequent tube placement accuracy.

[0036] In some embodiments, illustratively, the tube clamping mechanism 37 and the tube clamping positioning mechanism 38 have the same structure and can be set to pneumatic clamps, servo electric clamps, etc. Those skilled in the art can make a choice based on actual conditions, and the present invention does not impose any limitations on this.

[0037] like Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, the tube-pushing and clamping device 3 further includes: a tube-pushing mechanism 39, which is disposed on the second sliding member 35 and is located below the stage 2, and is configured to push out the cryotube 9 in the cryobox 8. When the clamping mechanism 37 moves downward to the position of the target cryotube 9, the tube-pushing mechanism 39 pushes up the target cryotube 9 from its bottom, and the clamping mechanism 37 clamps the target cryotube 9 and moves upward to take out the target cryotube 9.

[0038] Specifically, the jacking mechanism 39 includes a third driving component 391, a third transmission component 392, a support member 393 and a jacking component 394. The third driving component 391 is fixedly arranged on the support member 393. The driving end of the third driving component 391 is connected to the third transmission component 392. The third transmission component 392 is fixedly arranged on the second sliding member 35. The support member 393 extends along the Y direction and a jacking component 394 is arranged on the support member 393.

[0039] In some embodiments, illustratively, the third transmission assembly 392 includes a third gear 3921 and a third rack 3922 that are meshed and connected, the driving end of the third driving assembly 391 is connected to the third gear 3921, and the third rack 3922 is fixed on the second sliding member 35. The third driving assembly 391 transmits power to the third rack 3922 through the third gear 3921 to drive the support member 393 and the third driving assembly 391 itself fixed on the support member 393 to move up and down relative to the second sliding member 35, thereby driving the ejecting tube member 394 to eject the cryopreservation tube 9 in the cryopreservation box 8.

[0040] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the pipe jacking clamping device 3 also includes: a second driving component 310, a second transmission component 311 and a second connecting member 312. The second driving component 310 is fixedly arranged on the first connecting member 36. The driving end of the second driving component 310 is connected to the second transmission component 311. The second transmission component 311 is fixedly arranged on the second connecting member 312. The second connecting member 312 is connected to the first sliding member 34. The first connecting member 36 is slidably arranged on the second connecting member 312. The pipe jacking mechanism 39 is arranged on the second sliding member 35. The second sliding member 35 is slidably arranged on the fixing member 31.

[0041] In some embodiments, illustratively, the second transmission assembly 311 includes a second gear 3111 and a second rack 3112 that are meshed and connected, the driving end of the second driving assembly 310 is connected to the second gear 3111, and the second rack 3112 is fixed on the second connecting member 312. The second driving assembly 310 transmits power to the second rack 3112 through the second gear 3111, so that the first connecting member 36 moves relative to the second connecting member 312 along the Y direction, thereby driving the second sliding member 35, the first connecting member 36, and the second driving assembly 310 itself fixed on the first connecting member 36 to move along the Y direction, thereby driving the tube clamping mechanism 37, the tube jacking mechanism 39, and the tube clamping positioning mechanism 38 to move along the Y direction.

[0042] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5As shown, the freezing box tube picking device also includes: a sixth driving assembly 6 and a sixth transmission assembly 7. The sixth driving assembly 6 is fixedly arranged on the base 1. The driving end of the sixth driving assembly 6 is connected to the sixth transmission assembly 7. The sixth transmission assembly 7 is arranged on the stage 2.

[0043] In some embodiments, illustratively, the sixth transmission assembly 7 includes a sixth gear 71 and a sixth rack 72 that are meshed and connected, the driving end of the sixth drive assembly 6 is connected to the sixth gear 71, and the sixth rack 72 is fixed to the bottom of the stage 2. The sixth drive assembly 6 transmits power to the sixth rack 72 through the sixth gear 71 to drive the stage 2 to move relative to the base 1 along the X direction.

[0044] Specifically, based on the above structure, the stage 2 can drive the cryogenic box 8 to achieve changes in displacement in the X direction, the tube clamping mechanism 37, the tube pushing mechanism 39 and the tube clamping positioning mechanism 38 can achieve changes in displacement in the Y direction, and the tube clamping mechanism 37 can achieve changes in vertical displacement, thereby being able to move to the coordinate position of the target cryogenic tube 9 to achieve the purpose of clamping the target cryogenic tube 9.

[0045] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the box pressing device 4 includes: a fourth driving component 41, a fourth transmission component 42 and a box pressing plate 43. The fourth driving component 41 is fixedly arranged on the stage 2. The driving end of the fourth driving component 41 is connected to the fourth transmission component 42. The box pressing plate 43 is fixed on the fourth transmission component 42. A second hollow portion 431 is arranged on the box pressing plate 43. The second hollow portion 431 corresponds to and penetrates one of the first hollow portions 21. The surface of the box pressing plate 43 in contact with the freezing box 8 is arranged as an inclined surface 432. The inclined surface 432 is arranged at the front end and the rear end of the bottom of the box pressing plate 43. The inclined surface 432 is gradually inclined from bottom to top, so that the box pressing plate 43 can press the freezing box 8 downward while moving the freezing box 8 along the inclined surface 432 in the X direction. The box pressing plate 43 is a frame structure with a hollow center, which can accommodate a freezing box 8. When the box pressing plate 43 moves downward, it can press two freezing boxes 8 at the same time and push the two freezing boxes 8 to move along the X direction. The box pressing plate 43 is evenly stressed and is not easily deformed. In addition, the box pressing plate 43 presses the freezing box 8 downward to avoid the freezing box 8 being lifted up when picking up the tube, thereby ensuring the smooth picking of the tube.

[0046] In some embodiments, illustratively, the fourth transmission assembly 42 includes a fourth gear 421 and a fourth rack 422 that are meshed and connected, the driving end of the fourth driving assembly 41 is connected to the fourth gear 421, and the fourth rack 422 is fixedly connected to the box pressing plate 43. The fourth driving assembly 41 transmits power to the fourth rack 422 through the fourth gear 421 to drive the box pressing plate 43 to move downward relative to the stage 2, and the inclined surface 432 on the box pressing plate 43 can push the freezing box 8 to move along the X direction while pressing the freezing box 8 downward.

[0047] It should be noted that the inclined surface 432 mentioned above can be a structure integrated with the pressing box plate 43, or a detachable pressing box block can be provided at the bottom of the pressing box plate 43, and the surface of the pressing box block in contact with the freezing box 8 is set as the inclined surface 432. Those skilled in the art can make a choice according to actual conditions, and the present invention does not impose any restrictions on this.

[0048] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the box pushing device 5 includes a fifth driving component 51, a fifth transmission component 52 and a pushing rod 53. The fifth driving component 51 is fixedly arranged on the stage 2, and the driving end of the fifth driving component 51 is connected to the fifth transmission component 52. The pushing rod 53 penetrates the stage 2 along the X direction and is rotatably arranged on the stage 2. The pushing rod 53 is connected to the fifth transmission component 52, and a pushing block 54 is obliquely arranged on the pushing rod 53.

[0049] In some embodiments, illustratively, the fifth transmission assembly 52 includes two meshingly connected fifth gears, the fifth driving assembly 51 is connected to one of the fifth gears, and the other fifth gear is connected to the push rod 53. The fifth driving assembly 51 transmits power to the two fifth gears in sequence to drive the push rod 53 to rotate, so that the push block 54 on the push rod 53 rotates toward the direction of the freezing box 8. Since the push block 54 is tilted, the freezing box 8 is pushed to move along the Y direction by the push block 54 while the push block 54 rotates. Among them, the size of the fifth gear connected to the fifth driving assembly 51 is smaller than the size of the fifth gear connected to the push rod 53, so that the fifth driving assembly 51 can drive the push rod 53 to rotate with a smaller force output.

[0050] It should be noted that the push block 54 can be integrally formed on the push rod 53, or can be detachably fixedly connected. The number and inclination angle of the push block 54 on the push rod 53 are set by technical personnel in this field according to actual needs, and the present invention does not impose any limitation on this.

[0051] In some embodiments, illustratively, the first drive assembly 32 to the sixth drive assembly 6 can be configured as a stepper motor, a servo motor, and the like.

[0052] It should be noted that the specific structural forms of the above-mentioned first transmission assembly 33 to the fourth transmission assembly 42 and the sixth transmission assembly 7 are not limited to the above-mentioned "gear + rack" structural form. For example, the transmission assembly can also be set to a "screw rod + nut" structural form, and the specific structural form of the above-mentioned fifth transmission assembly 52 is not limited to the above-mentioned "gear + gear" structural form. For example, the transmission assembly can also be set to a "conveyor belt + transmission wheel" structural form. Such adjustments and changes to the specific structural forms of the transmission assembly do not deviate from the principles and scope of the present invention, and should be limited within the protection of the present invention. Of course, it is preferred to set the transmission assembly to the "gear + rack" and "gear + gear" structural forms introduced above, which have simple structure, low maintenance cost, stable operation and high operation accuracy. In addition, the gear rack has good structural strength and is not easily deformed in a low-temperature working environment, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the transmission device.
