[0039] See also Figures 1 to 8As shown, the small sampling port Dewar tank provided by the present invention comprises: a tank body 1, a first rotating mechanism 2, a sample tank 3, a plurality of sample racks 4, a cold source tank 5, a temperature control device 6, a tank cover 7, a sampling chamber 8 and a lifting device 9; the tank body 1 is provided with a first shell 11 and a plurality of first heat insulation layers 12 in sequence from the outside to the inside; the first rotating mechanism 2 is arranged at the bottom of the tank body 1, and a rotating platform 21 is provided at the output end of the first rotating mechanism 2; the sample tank 3 is arranged on the rotating platform 21, and a plurality of second heat insulation layers 22 are arranged between the sample tank 3 and the rotating platform 21, and a plurality of sample cavities 31 arranged in a circular array and a cold source cavity 32 arranged in the middle are arranged in the sample tank 3, and a third heat insulation layer 33 is arranged between the inner wall of the sample tank 3 and the outer wall of the sample cavity 31 and the outer wall of the cold source cavity 32; there are multiple sample racks 4, one sample rack 4 is correspondingly arranged in one sample cavity 31, a plurality of mutually parallel placement plates 41 are arranged in the sample rack 4, and a first cavity cover for sealing the sample cavity 31 is provided on the top of the sample rack 4 42; the cold source tank 5 is arranged in the cold source cavity 32 for storing the cold source, a cold source bin 53 is arranged below each sample cavity 31, and the cold source tank 5 is connected to the plurality of cold source bins 53 one by one through a plurality of liquid pipes 54; the temperature control device 6 comprises a controller 61, and a plurality of temperature regulating devices 62 respectively electrically connected to the controller 61, a temperature regulating device 62 is arranged at the bottom of a sample cavity 31, and a heat insulation structure 63 is arranged between the temperature regulating device 62 and the cold source bin 53; the tank cover 7 is used The tank body 1 is closed, and a sampling port 71 is formed on the tank cover 7; a sampling chamber 8 is arranged at the top of the tank cover 7 and is coaxially arranged with the sampling port 71; a lifting device 9 comprises a first lifting mechanism 91 arranged at the top of the sampling chamber 8 and a material taking claw 92 arranged at the output end of the first lifting mechanism 91, the material taking claw 92 is used to grab the first cavity cover 42, so that under the drive of the lifting device 9, the sample rack 4 located below the sampling port 71 can rise into the sampling chamber 8, and a cabinet door 81 is hinged on the sampling chamber 8.

[0040] In the above, the sample is stored in the sample cavity 31 through the sample rack 4. To ensure that the sample can be stored in a specific low temperature environment, the cold source tank 5 guides the cold source to each cold source bin 53 through the liquid pipe 54. The cold source bin 53 provides a low temperature environment for the sample bin 31, and controls the temperature regulating device 62 to keep the temperature of the sample cavity 31 within a preset temperature range. Since each sample cavity 31 is independent of each other, the temperature in each sample cavity 31 does not interfere with each other. Different sample cavities 31 can control different storage temperatures, which are suitable for storing different samples, thereby improving the wide use of the Dewar tank.

[0041] During sampling and placement, the first rotating mechanism 2 drives the rotating platform 21 to rotate an angle so that the sample chamber 31 is located directly below the sampling port 71. Then, the first lifting mechanism 91 drives the material claw 92 to move downward. After the material claw 92 grabs the first chamber cover 42, the first lifting mechanism 91 drives the material claw 92 to reset, so as to lift the sample rack 4 into the sampling chamber 8. Finally, the cabinet door 81 is opened to take out the corresponding sample, or the sample is placed on the storage plate 41. Compared with the prior art, during the sampling and placement process of a sample chamber 31, the remaining sample chambers 31 remain sealed under the action of the first chamber cover 42 to avoid the loss of the cold source. In addition, during sampling, the sample rack 4 in the sample chamber 31 is lifted to the sampling chamber 8 before sampling, thereby effectively reducing the loss of the cold source in the sample chamber 31.

[0042] It should be understood that the range of the first rotating mechanism 2 driving the rotating platform 21 is: forward and reverse rotation 180 degrees, so as to avoid the rotating platform 21 rotating in one direction and causing the wires and pipes led out of the sample tank 3 to become tangled or entangled.

[0043] In the above, the cold source in the cold source tank 5 can be liquid nitrogen, which can provide an ultra-low temperature of -196°C. The liquid nitrogen provides an ultra-low temperature condition for the corresponding sample cavity 31 in the cold source warehouse 53, so as to provide a low temperature environment suitable for storage for the sample. Wherein, the cold source tank 5 is connected with the cold source warehouse 53 through a liquid pipe 54, so as to continuously replenish the liquid nitrogen for the cold source warehouse 53, so as to ensure that the cold source warehouse 53 can continuously provide ultra-low temperature. In addition, by setting the insulation structure 63, the temperature at the bottom of the sample cavity 31 can be correspondingly increased to control the storage temperature of the entire sample cavity 31, wherein the insulation structure 63 can be a multi-layer insulation layer, and different layers of insulation layers are set to control the temperature provided by the cold source warehouse 53 for the sample warehouse 31. Since the tank body 1 is provided with a multi-layer first insulation layer 12, the rotating platform 21 is provided with a multi-layer second insulation layer 22, and the sample tank 3 is provided with a third insulation layer 33, so as to play a role of heat insulation and heat preservation for each sample cavity 31, the sample cavity 31 is in a sub-zero low temperature range.

[0044] To achieve the function of temperature control in the sample cavity 31 , at least one temperature control device 62 is provided in each sample cavity 31 . The temperature of the temperature control device 62 is directly transferred to the wall of the sample cavity 31 to achieve heat exchange with the sample cavity 31 .

[0045] Optionally, the sample cavity 31 is made of a material with high thermal conductivity, which further facilitates heat transfer.

[0046] Specifically, the temperature control device 62 can be a heating device (such as a heating plate, a resistance wire), or a cooling device (such as a semiconductor refrigerator), or a combination of a heating device and a cooling device. According to actual storage requirements, the heating device and the cooling device are controlled separately by the controller 61 to increase or decrease the temperature in the sample chamber 31.

[0047] More specifically, the temperature control device 6 further includes a plurality of temperature sensors 64, which are electrically connected to the controller 61, and each temperature sensor 64 is disposed between the sample holder 4 and the bottom of the sample cavity 31 to detect the temperature in the sample cavity 31. The temperature sensor 64 cooperates with the temperature control device 62 to maintain the temperature in the sample cavity 31 within a preset temperature range.

[0048] In a preferred embodiment, the cold source tank 5 is connected to the upper parts of the plurality of sample chambers one by one through a plurality of release tubes 51. The cold source is released into the sample chamber 31 through the release tubes 51, providing a low temperature storage condition for the upper part of the sample chamber 31, so that the temperature of the upper part and the lower part of the sample chamber 31 are close.

[0049] In a preferred embodiment, see Figure 5 The sample rack 4 further includes a top plate 43, a bottom plate 44 and a plurality of connecting posts 45 for connecting the top plate 43 and the bottom plate 44. Each connecting post 45 is provided with a plurality of grooves 451 arranged in a vertical direction, and the edge of the placement plate 41 is inserted into the groove 451. In this embodiment, the sample chamber 31 is a cylindrical structure, and accordingly, the sample rack 4 is a cylindrical structure. The three connecting posts 45 connect the top plate 43 and the bottom plate 44. When the placement plates 41 are inserted into different grooves 451, the distance between the two placement plates 41 can be adjusted to be suitable for storing samples of different heights.

[0050] In other embodiments, the sample chamber 31 and the sample rack 4 are polygonal column structures, the top plate 43 and the bottom plate 44 are connected by a vertical plate, and the groove 451 is provided on the inner side of the vertical plate.

[0051] A fourth heat insulating layer 46 is disposed between the top plate 43 and the first cavity cover 42 to prevent heat exchange between the sample cavity 31 and the first cavity cover 42, thereby preventing the temperature in the sample cavity 31 from increasing. Figure 4 The top of the sample chamber 31 is provided with a second mounting step 311, and the first chamber cover 42 is placed on the second mounting step 311 to fix its position. Since the sample rack 4 is fixed on the first chamber cover 42, the sample rack 4 can be suspended in the sample chamber 31, avoiding direct contact between the bottom of the sample rack 4 and the bottom of the sample chamber 31 to exchange heat, which would cause a large deviation between the temperature at the bottom of the sample rack 4 and the temperature at other positions.

[0052] Furthermore, the placement plate 41 is a perforated plate, which can reduce the weight of the sample rack 4 on the one hand, and on the other hand, since the gap between the sample rack 4 and the inner wall of the sample cavity 31 is small, the provision of multiple holes is conducive to the cold source quickly filling the entire sample cavity 31.

[0053] In a preferred embodiment, see Figure 2 , 3 The first rotating mechanism 2 includes a first base 23, a rotating shaft 24 rotatably connected to the first base 23, a worm wheel 25 sleeved on the rotating shaft 24, a worm 26 rotatably connected to the first base 23, and a first driving motor 27 arranged on the first base 23, the output end of the first driving motor 27 is connected to the worm 26, and the worm 26 is meshed with the worm wheel 25; a first through hole 241 is opened in the middle of the rotating shaft 24 for easy threading. The first driving motor 27 drives the worm 26 to rotate, and the worm 26 is meshed with the worm wheel 25 to drive the rotating shaft 24 to rotate forward or reverse, thereby driving the rotating platform 21 to rotate, so as to realize the rotation of any sample chamber 31 to be directly below the sampling port 71.

[0054] Specifically, a second through hole 34 corresponding to the first through hole 241 is opened on the sample tank 3 and the rotating platform 21, and the second through hole 34 is connected to the cold source cavity 32. The wires led out of the temperature control device 62 and the temperature sensor 64 in each sample cavity 31 pass through the second insulation layer 22, enter the cold source cavity 32 and merge, and then are led out from the second through hole 34 and the first through hole 241 to the outside of the tank body 1 in turn.

[0055] In a preferred embodiment, see Figure 3 , 4 A first mounting step 321 is provided on the top of the cold source cavity 32, and the cold source tank 5 is provided on the first mounting step 321, so that there is a gap between the bottom of the cold source tank 5 and the bottom of the cold source cavity 32, so as to provide enough space for arranging wires and pipelines.

[0056] Preferably, the cold source cavity 32 is provided with a second cavity cover 35 for sealing the cold source cavity 32, and a fifth heat insulation layer 36 is provided on the top of the second cavity cover 35 to prevent excessive cold source from being released from the sample cavity 31 into the cold source cavity 32 during the sampling and placing process, thereby increasing the loss of the cold source.

[0057] In order to add new cold source to the cold source tank 5, the cold source tank 5 is connected with a replenishing pipe 52, which is led out of the tank body 1 through the second through hole 34 and the first through hole 241 to replenish the cold source of the cold source tank 5 from the outside.

[0058] Optionally, the replenishing tube 52 is disposed in the third insulation layer 33, the upper end of the replenishing tube 33 is connected to the cold source tank 5, and the lower end thereof extends to the bottom of the sample tank 3 and is led out from the second through hole 34 and the first through hole 341. The releasing tube 51 is disposed in the third insulation layer 33, one end of the releasing tube 51 is connected to the cold source tank 5, and the other end thereof is connected to the sample cavity 31.

[0059] In a preferred embodiment, see Figure 3 , 7 The plurality of cabinet doors 81 are arranged in parallel along the vertical direction, and each cabinet door 81 is provided with an observation window 811. During sampling, the position of the sample to be taken out can be observed through the observation window 811, and then the corresponding cabinet door 81 can be opened, which can effectively reduce the leakage of cold sources during sampling and placing.

[0060] Preferably, the sampling chamber 8 is provided with a third outer shell 82 and a plurality of seventh heat insulation layers 83 in sequence from the outside to the inside, so as to avoid heat exchange between the inside of the sampling chamber 8 and the external environment, so as to reduce the loss of the cold source.

[0061] Similarly, an eighth heat insulation layer is provided on the inner wall of the cabinet door 81 .

[0062] In a preferred embodiment, see Figure 7 The material taking claw 92 includes a pneumatic clamp 921, a proximity switch 922 arranged on the pneumatic clamp 921, and two clamping blocks 923. The pneumatic clamp 921 drives the two clamping blocks 923 to move toward or away from each other synchronously. The first chamber cover 42 is provided with two clamping slots 421 cooperating with the clamping blocks 923. The proximity switch 922 is electrically connected to the controller 61, and the first lifting mechanism 91 drives the pneumatic clamp 921 to move downward. When the proximity switch 922 detects the first chamber cover 42, the pneumatic clamp 921 drives the two clamping blocks 923 to move toward each other synchronously. The two clamping blocks 923 are respectively clamped into the clamping slots 421 to clamp the first chamber cover 42. Then, the first lifting mechanism 91 drives the pneumatic clamp 921 to move upward, and the first chamber cover 42 moves upward accordingly, thereby lifting the sample rack 4 to the sampling chamber 8.

[0063] Specifically, the outer wall of the clamping block 923 is provided with a first guiding inclined surface, and the inner wall of the clamping slot 421 is provided with a second guiding inclined surface matching the first guiding inclined surface, so as to ensure that the clamping block 923 is smoothly inserted into the clamping slot 421 .

[0064] In a preferred embodiment, see Figure 3 The tank cover 7 includes a second outer shell 72 and a plurality of sixth heat insulation layers 73 arranged in sequence from top to bottom. The second outer shell 72 is fitted with the top of the first outer shell 11 to form a sealed space between the tank body 1 and the tank body 1, and multiple layers of the first heat insulation layer 12 and the sixth heat insulation layer 73 are arranged to effectively prevent heat exchange between the inside of the tank body 1 and the external environment.

[0065] In a preferred embodiment, see Figure 1 , 2 , further comprising a second rotating mechanism 10 and a second lifting mechanism 20, the second lifting mechanism 20 being arranged at the output end of the second rotating mechanism 10, and the output end of the second lifting mechanism 20 being connected to the tank cover 7. When maintenance is required, the second lifting mechanism 20 drives the tank cover 7 to move upward, and after the tank cover 7 is away from the tank body 1 for a certain distance, the second rotating mechanism 10 drives the second lifting mechanism 20 to rotate, so that the tank cover 7 is away from the top of the tank body 1, so that the operator can perform maintenance work from the top of the tank body 1.

[0066] In the above description, the first lifting mechanism 91 and the second lifting mechanism 20 are both cylinder-driven lifting mechanisms, which respectively drive the material-taking claw 92 to perform lifting motion and drive the tank cover 7 to perform lifting motion.

When in use, the second driving motor drives the driving wheel 103 to rotate, and the driving wheel 103 meshes with the driven wheel 102 to drive the second lifting mechanism 20 to rotate, thereby driving the tank cover 7 away from the top of the tank body 1.
