Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of biomedical engineering and laboratory equipment, in particular to a multi-layer cold storage rack for cell storage. Background Art

[0002] Multilayer refrigerated racks for cell storage are used to safely and efficiently store biological samples, such as cells, tissues, and other temperature-sensitive biological materials in a controlled low-temperature environment. This type of refrigerated rack usually has a multi-layer structure, and each layer can hold multiple storage containers or drawers, thereby greatly increasing the storage capacity per unit area. It provides laboratories, hospitals, and research institutions with an optimized space utilization solution and ensures that cell samples maintain their integrity and activity throughout the storage period.

[0003] However, the existing single-sided multi-layer refrigerated racks usually occupy a large space after installation due to the large number of containers. Although the double-sided multi-layer refrigerated racks can save space to a certain extent, since the shelves are set on both sides, it is necessary to walk around the shelves when taking materials, which is inconvenient to find and take materials, and it is easy to affect the efficiency of taking goods to a certain extent when using them. Summary of the invention

[0004] In view of the deficiencies of the prior art, the present invention provides a multi-layer refrigerated rack for cell storage, which solves the problems of occupying a large space and being difficult to retrieve materials.
