[0078] In conjunction with the accompanying drawings, some embodiments of the present application are described in detail below. In the absence of conflict, the following embodiments and features in the embodiments can be combined with each other.
[0079] The present application embodiment provides a container sealing device 100, see Figure 1 The container sealing device 100 includes a base 10 and a cover plate 20. The base 10 is provided with a limiting portion 13, and the limiting portion 13 is used to fix the container 50. The cover plate 20 is arranged opposite to the base 10. When the cover plate 20 is connected to the base 10, the cover plate 20 seals the container 50 and cooperates with the base 10 to fix the container 50.
[0080] One end of the container 50 has an opening, and the container 50 can be used to hold reagents. The types of the container 50 include, but are not limited to, test tubes and centrifuge tubes. Optionally, the bottom end of the container 50 is sealed and the top end has an opening. The base 10 is located at a side of the bottom end of the container 50 away from the top end, and is used to support and fix the container 50. The cover 20 is located at a side of the container 50 with the opening, and is used to seal the opening of the container 50.
[0081] See also Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4The container sealing device 100 further includes a sleeve assembly 40, which includes a sleeve 41, a fastener 42 and an elastic member 43, wherein the sleeve 41 is located on one side of the cover plate 20 and connected to the surface of the cover plate 20. When the cover plate 20 covers the base 10, the sleeve 41 is located on the side of the cover plate 20 facing away from the base 10. The sleeve 41 encloses a channel, and the fastener 42 and the elastic member 43 are both accommodated in the channel. Optionally, the sleeve 41 extends from the base 10 toward the cover plate 20; the end of the fastener 42 away from the base 10 is accommodated in the sleeve 41, and the end close to the base 10 is used for detachable connection with the base 10, so that the cover plate 20 and the base 10 are connected and fixed by the fastener 42; the elastic member 43 is accommodated in the sleeve 41 as a whole, and is sleeved on the outer periphery of the fastener 42, and is used to generate elastic force to match the disassembly and installation process of the fastener 42 and the base 10.
[0082] When the container sealing device 100 seals the container 50 , the cover plate 20 and the base 10 are placed opposite to each other, and the fastener 42 is controlled to be connected to the base 10 , so that the cover plate 20 is clamped with the base 10 under the action of the fastener 42 , thereby achieving the sealing of the container 50 by the cover plate 20 .
[0083] The fastener 42 is at least partially accommodated in the channel enclosed by the sleeve 41, and one end of the fastener 42 close to the base 10 passes through the cover 20 and is detachably connected to the base 10, so that the cover 20 and the base 10 are connected and fixed by the fastener 42; the other end of the fastener 42 away from the base 10 is accommodated in the channel enclosed by the sleeve 41 and has a butt portion 421, which protrudes from the outer peripheral surface of the fastener 42 body, that is, the orthographic projection area of the fastener 42 body on the butt portion 421 is smaller than the surface area of the butt portion 421, which is conducive to achieving a limiting effect.
[0084] The elastic member 43 is completely accommodated in the channel enclosed by the sleeve 41, and the elastic member 43 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the fastener 42. One end of the elastic member 43 abuts against the surface of the abutting portion 421 facing the base 10, and the other end abuts against the surface of the cover plate 20 facing the sleeve 41, so that the elastic member 43 is sandwiched between the abutting portion 421 and the cover plate 20. When the fastener 42 moves toward the direction close to the base 10, the abutting portion 421 moves toward the direction close to the base 10, the elastic member 43 is compressed, and pushes the cover plate 20 to move toward the direction close to the base 10, so that the cover plate 20 is clamped with the base 10 under the action of the fastener 42, thereby achieving the sealing of the container 50 by the cover plate 20.
[0085] At least part of the fastener 42 and all of the elastic member 43 are accommodated in the channel enclosed by the sleeve 41, so that the sleeve 41 can limit the fastener 42 and the elastic member 43, which is beneficial to improve the position stability of the fastener 42 and the elastic member 43 during use.
[0086] The fastener 42 is connected to the base 10 and can reciprocate in the channel enclosed by the sleeve 41 to change the tightness of the connection between the fastener 42 and the base 10, thereby changing the tightness of the connection between the cover plate 20 and the base 10. The fastener 42 can be moved manually or by an automated device.
[0087] Optionally, when the fastener 42 moves from the cover 20 toward the base 10, the fitting connection between the fastener 42 and the base 10 is tightened, the elastic member 43 is squeezed, and the cover 20 moves toward the base 10 under the action of the fastener 42. The cover 20 is connected to the base 10 through the fastener 42, and the cover 20 seals the container 50; when the fastener 42 moves from the base 10 toward the cover 20, the fitting connection between the fastener 42 and the base 10 becomes loose, the elastic member 43 rebounds, and the elastic member 43 applies an elastic force from the base 10 toward the cover 20 to the fastener 42, thereby promoting the fastener 42 to quickly reset; when the fitting connection between the fastener 42 and the base 10 is released, the cover 20 can be removed from the base 10 and the seal on the container 50 is released.
[0088] The elastic member 43 is always accommodated in the channel enclosed by the sleeve 41 , and when the fastener 42 reciprocates in the channel enclosed by the sleeve 41 , both ends of the elastic member 43 always maintain an abutting relationship with the cover plate 20 and the abutting portion 421 .
[0089] See also Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 8 and Fig. 9 The container sealing device 100 further includes a sealing member 30, which is connected to the surface of the cover plate 20 facing away from the sleeve 41, that is, the sealing member 30 is arranged on the side of the cover plate 20 facing the base 10. When the container sealing device 100 seals the container 50, the cover plate 20 covers the base 10, and the cover plate 20 moves toward the base 10, and the sealing member 30 contacts the container 50, covers and seals the opening of the container 50.
[0090] The seal 30 is elastic and can be deformed when subjected to pressure to improve the sealing effect between the seal 30 and the opening of the container 50. The seal 30 can directly abut against the edge of the opening of the container 50, or when the seal 30 abuts against the end of the container 50 with the opening, the end of the container 50 with the opening partially sinks into the seal 30, so that the seal 30 contacts the outer peripheral surface of the end of the container 50 with the opening, thereby improving the sealing effect of the seal 30 on the container 50.
[0091] The cover plate 20 has a first mounting hole 21, and the sealing member 30 has a second mounting hole 31. The second mounting hole 31 is in communication with the first mounting hole 21, and the passage enclosed by the sleeve 41 is in communication with the first mounting hole 21, so that the passage enclosed by the sleeve 41, the first mounting hole 21, and the second mounting hole 31 are all in communication. When the fastener 42 moves from the cover plate 20 toward the base 10, the end of the fastener 42 close to the base 10 passes through the first mounting hole 21 and the second mounting hole 31, so that the end of the fastener 42 close to the base 10 protrudes from the sealing member 30 and is detachably connected to the base 10.
[0092] There is a spacing distance between the second mounting hole 31 and the opening of the container 50 to prevent the second mounting hole 31 from being connected to the container 50 , thereby preventing the sealing effect of the sealing member 30 on the container 50 from being affected.
[0093] The container sealing device 100 provided in the present application includes a cover plate 20 and a base 10, the cover plate 20 and the base 10 are detachably connected, the base 10 is provided with a limiting portion 13, the limiting portion 13 is used to fix the container 50, and the surface of the cover plate 20 facing the base 10 is connected with a sealing member 30, the sealing member 30 is used to seal the container 50, so as to improve the sealing effect of the container 50. The surface of the cover plate 20 facing away from the base 10 is connected with a sleeve assembly 40, the sleeve assembly 40 includes a sleeve 41, a fastener 42 and an elastic member 43, the sleeve 41 is used to accommodate the fastener 42 and the elastic member 43, realizes the position limitation of the fastener 42 and the elastic member 43, and ensures the stability of the position of the fastener 42 and the elastic member 43; at the same time, it avoids the fastener 42 from tilting during the connection process with the base 10, resulting in the need to adjust the moving direction of the fastener 42 for many times, and it is also easy to cause the cover plate 20 to tilt during the fastening process with the base 10, which is conducive to improving the sealing efficiency and sealing effect of the container sealing device 100 on the container 50.
[0094] When an automated device is used to act on the fastener 42 to achieve the sealing of the container sealing device 100, the structure in which the fastener 42 is contained in the sleeve 41 is conducive to simplifying the recognition of the action position by the automated device, and ensuring the stability of the position of the fastener 42 under the action of the automated device; at the same time, in the process of releasing the mating connection between the fastener 42 and the base 10, the elastic member 43 applies an elastic force from the base 10 toward the cover plate 20 to the fastener 42, assisting in releasing the mating connection between the fastener 42 and the base 10, which is conducive to improving the sealing and unsealing efficiency of the container 50 by the container sealing device 100. In addition, when the fastener 42 is released from the base 10, the fastener 42 is confined in the sleeve 41, and there is no need for additional storage, and there is no need to worry about losing it, which improves the sealing efficiency and is conducive to automated integration.
[0095] In one implementation, see Figure 8 , Fig. 9 and Fig.10The sleeve 41 and the cover plate 20 are detachably connected, which is beneficial to simplify the processing and forming of the sleeve 41 and the cover plate 20 and improve the processing yield of the sleeve 41 and the cover plate 20; at the same time, the number and position of the sleeve 41 can be appropriately adjusted according to actual needs to avoid the cover plate 20 from tilting during the process of fastening with the base 10, thereby improving the sealing efficiency and sealing effect of the cover plate 20 and the base 10 on the container 50.
[0096] The sleeve 41 includes a sleeve body 411 and a fixing portion 412, the fixing portion 412 is connected to the outer circumferential surface of the sleeve body 411, the sleeve body 411 encloses a channel for accommodating the fastener 42 and the elastic member 43, the fixing portion 412 protrudes from the outer circumferential surface of the sleeve body 411 and is detachably connected to the cover plate 20 to realize the detachable connection between the sleeve body 411 and the cover plate 20.
[0097] The fixing portion 412 and the sleeve body 411 may be an integral structure or different components connected to each other, and this application does not impose any limitation on this.
[0098] Optionally, the fixing portion 412 is connected to the end of the sleeve body 411 in the extension direction, so that one end of the sleeve body 411 is connected to the cover plate 20. In the extension direction of the sleeve body 411, the extension length of the fixing portion 412 can be equal to the extension length of the sleeve body 411, which is conducive to increasing the connection area between the fixing portion 412 and the sleeve body 411, thereby increasing the stability of the connection between the sleeve body 411 and the cover plate 20 through the fixing portion 412.
[0099] Optionally, the fixing portion 412 also encloses a channel, and a threaded structure is provided in the channel of the fixing portion 412. The fixing portion 412 and the cover plate 20 are connected by bolts. The bolts pass through the channel enclosed by the fixing portion 412 and cooperate with the threaded structure in the channel of the fixing portion 412.
[0100] The number of the fixing parts 412 can be multiple, and the multiple fixing parts 412 are evenly spaced on the outer circumference of the sleeve body 411 to improve the stability of the connection and fixation between the sleeve body 411 and the cover plate 20.
[0101] In one implementation, see Figure 8 , Fig. 9 and Fig.10 The cover plate 20 further includes a limit cover 44, which is connected to the end of the sleeve 41 facing away from the cover plate 20. The limit cover 44 is provided with an operation hole 441, which is connected to the passage enclosed by the sleeve 41, and the operation hole 441 is opposite to the fastener 42. When the fastener 42 is acted on to move it, the fastening device 200 passes through the operation hole 441 and extends into the sleeve 41 to contact the fastener 42.
[0102] The size of the operating hole 441 is smaller than that of the abutment portion 421, that is, the area of the positive projection of the operating hole 441 on the abutment portion 421 is smaller than the area of the abutment portion 421, so that the end of the fastener 42 facing away from the base 10 is always accommodated in the channel enclosed by the sleeve 41, avoiding the fastener 42 from being ejected when subjected to the elastic force of the elastic member 43, thereby ensuring the stability of the position of the fastener 42.
[0103] The limit cover 44 and the sleeve 41 are detachably connected. When assembling the sleeve assembly 40, the fastener 42 and the elastic member 43 are first installed in the sleeve 41, and then the limit cover 44 is connected to the end of the sleeve 41 facing away from the cover plate 20, so that the limit cover 44 limits the position of the fastener 42 and the elastic member 43.
[0104] Optionally, the limiting cover 44 is further provided with a fixing hole, the fixing hole is connected to the channel enclosed by the fixing portion 412, and the fixing hole and the bolts in the channel enclosed by the fixing portion 412 are opposite. When the bolt is used to connect or disassemble the fixing portion 412 with the cover plate 20, the fastening device 200 passes through the fixing hole and extends into the channel enclosed by the fixing portion 412 to contact the bolt.
[0105] In one implementation, see Figure 1 The number of sleeve assemblies 40 is multiple, and the multiple sleeve assemblies 40 are evenly distributed on the surface of the cover plate 20. Each sleeve assembly 40 has a fastener 42, so that the container sealing device 100 has multiple fasteners 42, the multiple fasteners 42 are evenly distributed, and the multiple fasteners 42 are detachably connected to the base 10, which is conducive to improving the stability of the connection between the cover plate 20 and the base 10, and preventing the cover plate 20 from tilting during the process of being fastened to the base 10.
[0106] Optionally, a plurality of sleeve assemblies 40 are arranged in an array on the surface of the cover plate 20 , such as a 3×2 array, a 3×3 array, a 3×4 array, and the like.
[0107] When multiple fasteners 42 are moved in the channel enclosed by the sleeve 41, multiple fastening devices 200 can be used to act on the multiple fasteners 42 at the same time, so that the multiple fasteners 42 move synchronously from the cover 20 toward the base 10 or the multiple fasteners 42 move synchronously from the base 10 toward the cover 20; or a single fastening device 200 can be used to act on the multiple fasteners 42 in sequence to realize the connection and disassembly of the multiple fasteners 42 and the base 10 in sequence.
[0108] In one implementation, see Figure 4 and Figure 7 The base 10 has a fastening fitting 14, and the fastening fitting 14 and the second mounting hole 31 are arranged oppositely, that is, the channel enclosed by the sleeve 41, the first mounting hole 21, the second mounting hole 31 and the fastening fitting 14 are all arranged oppositely.
[0109] One end of the fastener 42 close to the base 10 passes through the first mounting hole 21 and the second mounting hole 31 and is connected to the fastening fitting 14 so that the fastener 42 is detachably connected to the base 10, thereby realizing a detachable connection between the cover plate 20 and the base 10.
[0110] Optionally, the fastener 42 and the fastening fitting 14 are threadedly connected. The fastener 42 may be a screw, and the fastening fitting 14 may be a hole with a threaded structure on the inner wall; or the fastener 42 may have a hole with a threaded structure at one end close to the base 10, and the fastening fitting 14 may be a screw.
[0111] Optionally, the inner wall of the first mounting hole 21 has a threaded structure, and the fastener 42 is also cooperatively connected to the inner wall of the first mounting hole 21, so that the fastener 42 is detachably connected to the cover plate 20 and the base 10 at the same time.
[0112] On the surface of the base 10 facing the cover plate 20, the fastening fittings 14 and the limiting portion 13 are arranged at intervals to avoid interference between the fastener 42 and the accommodation. The number of the fastening fittings 14 can be multiple, the number of the fastening fittings 14 is equal to the number of the sleeve assemblies 40, and the fastening fittings 14 and the sleeve assemblies 40 are arranged one-to-one, so that the fastening fittings 14 are connected to the fastener 42 one-to-one, thereby improving the stability of the connection between the cover plate 20 and the base 10, and thereby improving the sealing performance of the container sealing device 100 on the container 50.
[0113] In one implementation, see Figure 1 , Figure 5 and Figure 8 The cover plate 20 has a first positioning member 22, which is located on the side of the cover plate 20 facing the base 10; the base 10 has a second positioning member 15, which is located on the side of the base 10 facing the cover plate 20, and the first positioning member 22 and the second positioning member 15 are detachably connected.
[0114] The first positioning member 22 and the second positioning member 15 are arranged opposite to each other, and the first positioning member 22 and the second positioning member 15 are used to realize the relative positioning of the cover plate 20 and the base 10, so that the relative position of the cover plate 20 and the base 10 is more accurate and stable. When the first positioning member 22 and the second positioning member 15 are connected, the cover plate 20 and the base 10 are in the correct relative position.
[0115] The first positioning member 22 and the second positioning member 15 are detachably connected, which is also conducive to the detachable connection between the fastener 42 and the base 10, so as to realize the detachable connection between the cover plate 20 and the base 10. The first positioning member 22 and the second positioning member 15 can also jointly support the cover plate 20, so that the cover plate 20 can move parallel to the base 10, and avoid the cover plate 20 from tilting during the movement, which is conducive to improving the stability of the cover plate 20 during the fastening process to the base 10, thereby improving the sealing performance of the container sealing device 100 on the container 50.
[0116] When the container sealing device 100 seals the container 50 , the cover plate 20 moves toward the base 10 , the distance between the cover plate 20 and the base 10 decreases, and the connection between the first positioning member 22 and the second positioning member 15 becomes tighter.
[0117] The number of the first positioning members 22 can be multiple, and the multiple first positioning members 22 are evenly spaced on the surface of the cover plate 20 facing the base 10. The first positioning member 22 is spaced from the first mounting hole 21 and the second mounting hole 31 to avoid interference between the first positioning member 22 and the fastener 42. Optionally, the sealing member 30 is located in the central area of the cover plate 20, the first positioning member 22 is located at the edges of the cover plate 20, the first positioning member 22 is spaced from the sealing member 30, and the multiple first positioning members 22 are evenly spaced around the edges of the cover plate 20 around the sealing member 30.
[0118] The number of the second positioning members 15 can be multiple, and the multiple second positioning members 15 are evenly spaced on the surface of the base 10 facing the cover plate 20. The second positioning members 15 are spaced from the limiting portion 13 and the fastening fitting 14 to avoid interference between the second positioning members 15 and the fastening member 42. It can be understood that the number of the second positioning members 15 is the same as the number of the first positioning members 22, and the second positioning members 15 and the first positioning members 22 are arranged one by one.
[0119] The first positioning member 22 may be a latch, and the second positioning member 15 may be a socket; or the first positioning member 22 may be a socket, and the second positioning member 15 may be a latch.
[0120] Optionally, at least one of the first positioning member 22 and the second positioning member 15 is provided with a positioning portion, which is used to limit the degree of fit between the first positioning member 22 and the second positioning member 15, so that there is always a spacing distance between the cover 20 and the base 10, and to adjust the extrusion pressure of the cover 20 on the container 50 to avoid the spacing distance between the cover 20 and the base 10 being too small, the extrusion pressure of the cover 20 on the container 50 being too large, and causing damage to the container 50.
[0121] Optionally, the positioning portion may be located between the first positioning member 22 and the second positioning member 15 , and the positioning portion is used to increase the friction force at the contact position of the first positioning member 22 and the second positioning member 15 , thereby limiting the degree of fit between the first positioning member 22 and the second positioning member 15 .
[0122] In one implementation, see Figure 1 , Figure 5 and Figure 7 The base 10 also includes a support member 16, one end of which is connected to one of the cover plate 20 and the base 10. When the cover plate 20 and the base 10 are connected, the other end of the support member 16 abuts against the other of the cover plate 20 and the base 10 so that the support member 16 is located between the cover plate 20 and the base 10.
[0123] Optionally, one end of the support member 16 is detachably connected to the surface of the base 10 facing the cover plate 20 , and the other end abuts against the surface of the cover plate 20 facing the base 10 .
[0124] During the process of sealing the container 50 by the container sealing device 100, the cover plate 20 moves toward the direction close to the base 10, and the cover plate 20 may tilt during the movement, resulting in excessive friction at the contact position of part of the first positioning member 22 and the second positioning member 15, causing the cover plate 20 to get stuck during the movement toward the base 10, affecting the sealing efficiency and sealing performance of the container sealing device 100. By arranging a support member 16 between the base 10 and the cover plate 20, the support member 16 assists in supporting the cover plate 20 during the movement of the cover plate 20 toward the base 10, which is conducive to preventing the cover plate 20 from tilting too much during the movement. At the same time, the support member 16 has a certain size, which is also conducive to ensuring that there is always a spacing distance between the cover plate 20 and the base 10, avoiding that the spacing distance between the cover plate 20 and the base 10 is too small, and the pressure of the cover plate 20 on the container 50 is too large, resulting in damage to the container 50.
[0125] Optionally, the support member 16 includes a rigid portion 161 and an elastic portion 162 connected to each other, one of the base 10 and the cover plate 20 is connected to the rigid portion 161, and the other is in contact with the elastic portion 162; illustratively, the rigid portion 161 is connected to the base 10, and one end of the elastic portion 162 away from the rigid portion 161 is in contact with the cover plate 20. The elastic portion 162 can be deformed when subjected to pressure, and the elastic portion 162 is squeezed during the movement of the cover plate 20 toward the base 10, so that the elastic portion 162 is compressed, thereby ensuring that the cover plate 20 moves smoothly toward the base 10; at the same time, the elastic portion 162 can also convert part of the squeezing force of the support member 16 on the cover plate 20 into elastic force, so as to avoid excessive squeezing force of the support member 16 on the cover plate 20, resulting in damage to the cover plate 20.
[0126] Optionally, the elastic portion 162 is truncated cone-shaped, and the area of the surface of the elastic portion 162 away from the rigid portion 161 is smaller than the area of the surface of the elastic portion 162 connected to the rigid portion 161. Exemplarily, when the elastic portion 162 abuts against the cover plate 20, the orthographic projection area of the surface of the elastic portion 162 in contact with the cover plate 20 on the base 10 is smaller than the orthographic projection area of the surface of the elastic portion 162 connected to the rigid portion 161 on the base 10.
[0127] The surface area of the elastic part 162 in contact with the cover plate 20 is small, which can avoid the surface area of the elastic part 162 in contact with the cover plate 20 being too large, resulting in irregular deformation of the surface of the elastic part 162 in contact with the cover plate 20, which is conducive to improving the stability of the support member 16 abutting against the cover plate 20; at the same time, the outer peripheral surface of the elastic part 162 is an inclined surface, which is conducive to reducing the volume of the elastic part 162, avoiding the elastic part 162 being too hard, making the elastic part 162 more likely to deform. Among them, the elastic part 162 can be made of silicone.
[0128] The number of the support members 16 can be multiple, and the multiple support members 16 are evenly spaced on the surface of the base 10 facing the cover plate 20, so that the multiple support members 16 evenly assist in supporting the cover plate 20 and improve the stability of the cover plate 20 during the process of fastening to the base 10.
[0129] The support member 16 is spaced apart from the limiting portion 13, the fastening member 14, and the second positioning member 15 to avoid interference between the support member 16 and the fastener 42 and the second positioning member 15. Optionally, a plurality of support members 16 are evenly spaced apart around the edges of the base 10, and a plurality of support members 16 and a plurality of second positioning members 15 are alternately spaced apart to achieve uniform support of the support members 16 and the second positioning members 15 on the cover plate 20, thereby improving the stability of the cover plate 20.
[0130] In one implementation, see Figure 8 The cover plate 20 is provided with a first pressure relief hole 23 , and the first pressure relief hole 23 passes through the cover plate 20 . Optionally, the first pressure relief hole 23 passes through the cover plate 20 from the cover plate 20 toward the base 10 .
[0131] The first pressure relief hole 23 is opposite to the sealing member 30, and the distribution area of the first pressure relief hole 23 at least partially overlaps with the orthographic projection area of the sealing member 30 on the cover plate 20. That is, the orthographic projection of the first pressure relief hole 23 on the base 10 is at least partially located within the range of the orthographic projection of the sealing member 30 on the base 10, and the sealing member 30 at least partially closes the first pressure relief hole 23 on the side of the cover plate 20 close to the base 10.
[0132] When the container 50 of the container sealing device 100 is sealed, one end of the opening of the container 50 abuts against the sealing member 30, and the container 50 presses the sealing member 30 from the base 10 toward the cover plate 20. The sealing member 30 is deformed after being squeezed, and the first pressure relief hole 23 connects the gap space between the sealing member 30 and the cover plate 20 and the external space, and is used to discharge the air in the gap space between the sealing member 30 and the cover plate 20 when the sealing member 30 is deformed, and relieve the pressure in the gap space between the sealing member 30 and the cover plate 20, which is beneficial to ensure the overall flatness of the sealing member 30 after being squeezed, and avoid the partial area of the sealing member 30 from warping up, which affects the sealing performance of the sealing member 30 to the opening of the container 50.
[0133] The first pressure relief hole 23 and the sleeve assembly 40 are arranged at intervals to prevent the sleeve assembly 40 from closing the first pressure relief hole 23 and affecting the pressure relief performance of the first pressure relief hole 23 .
[0134] There may be a plurality of first pressure relief holes 23 , which are distributed in an array on the cover plate 20 , and the shapes and sizes of the plurality of first pressure relief holes 23 may be completely the same.
[0135] Optionally, the sealing member 30 may be directly connected to the cover plate 20 by gluing, or the sealing member 30 may be detachably connected to the cover plate 20, which is not limited herein.
[0136] In one implementation, see Fig. 9 and Fig.10 The container sealing device 100 also includes a first fitting member and a second fitting member. The first fitting member is arranged on the side of the cover plate 20 facing the sealing member 30, and the second fitting member is connected to the side of the sealing member 30 facing the cover plate 20. The first fitting member and the second fitting member are detachably connected so that the sealing member 30 and the cover plate 20 are detachably connected to facilitate the replacement of the sealing member 30.
[0137] Optionally, when the cover 20 is covered on the base 10, the orthographic projection of the second mating part on the cover 20 coincides with the orthographic projection of the first mating part on the cover 20. At this time, the seal 30 is located at the correct set position relative to the cover 20, which is beneficial to improve the accuracy of the position of the seal 30 during the installation process and avoid misalignment of the seal 30 after installation, which reduces the sealing performance of the seal 30 on the container 50.
[0138] Optionally, the first matching piece is a magnet, and the second matching piece is a magnetic attraction piece, and magnetic force can be generated between the magnet and the magnetic attraction piece to connect the seal 30 and the cover plate 20; preferably, the second matching piece can be an iron sheet, such as a stainless iron sheet. Alternatively, the first matching piece is a hook-and-belt adhesive, and the second matching piece is a loop-and-belt adhesive, and a large friction force can be generated between the hook-and-belt adhesive and the loop-and-belt adhesive to connect the seal 30 and the cover plate 20, and facilitate the disassembly of the seal 30 relative to the cover plate 20.
[0139] In one implementation, see Fig. 9 and Fig.10 The seal 30 includes a high-viscosity portion and a low-viscosity portion that are connected, and the high-viscosity portion and the low-viscosity portion are stacked. The high-viscosity portion is connected to the cover plate 20, and the low-viscosity portion is used to seal the opening of the container 50 when the cover plate 20 is covered on the base 10. The viscosity of the low-viscosity portion is lower than that of the high-viscosity portion, so that the portion of the seal 30 that contacts the container 50 has a lower viscosity, thereby avoiding a large adhesive force between the seal 30 and the container 50 when the container 50 is unsealed, thereby affecting the normal unsealing of the container 50 or lifting the container 50.
[0140] Optionally, both the high-viscosity portion and the low-viscosity portion are layered structures, and in the direction from the cover plate 20 to the seal 30, the thickness of the high-viscosity portion is greater than the thickness of the low-viscosity portion. The thickness of the low-viscosity portion can be 0.05mm-0.2mm, for example, 0.05mm, 0.08mm, 0.1mm, 0.12mm, 0.15mm, 0.18mm, 0.2mm or other values, to ensure that the low-viscosity portion has a certain flexibility, and will not be severely deformed due to being too thin or too thick to cause the sealing effect to deteriorate. The thickness of the high-viscosity portion can be 3-8mm, for example, 3mm, 4mm, 4.5mm, 5mm, 6mm, 7mm, 8mm or other values. The high-viscosity portion has good elasticity, so that the seal 30 is deformed when the cover plate 20 covers the base 10, thereby improving the sealing performance of the seal 30 to the container 50.
[0141] Optionally, the high-viscosity portion can be made of silicone material, and the low-viscosity portion can be made of polyfluoroalkoxy (PFA) material, which has a low friction coefficient and non-stick properties and is resistant to high temperatures. It is understood that the low-viscosity portion can also be a film such as PTFE, FEP, or PE.
[0142] In one implementation, see Fig.11 The surface of the cover plate 20 facing away from the seal 30 is provided with ribs 24, and the sleeve assembly 40 is connected to the area of the cover plate 20 where the ribs 24 are provided. The orthographic projection area of the ribs 24 on the cover plate 20 is greater than or equal to the orthographic projection area of the sleeve body 411 on the cover plate 20, so as to increase the structural strength of the connection between the cover plate 20 and the sleeve assembly 40.
[0143] The number of the ribs 24 can be multiple, and the multiple ribs 24 are arranged at intervals on the surface of the cover plate 20, and the multiple ribs 24 are evenly distributed on the surface of the cover plate 20 to evenly improve the structural strength of the cover plate 20. Optionally, the shape of the cover plate 20 is rectangular, and the multiple ribs 24 all extend linearly along the length direction of the cover plate 20. The container sealing device 100 has multiple sleeve assemblies 40, and the multiple sleeve assemblies 40 are distributed in an array on the cover plate 20. A single rib 24 has multiple sleeve assemblies 40, and the multiple sleeve assemblies 40 are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the cover plate 20.
[0144] The surface of the cover plate 20 facing away from the sealing member 30 is provided with ribs 24 to improve the overall strength of the cover plate 20, and can adaptively reduce the thickness of the cover plate 20, making the cover plate 20 lighter and thinner as a whole, while ensuring a certain structural strength, and reducing the overall volume and weight of the container sealing device 100. When the moving plate 301 of the pressing device 300 presses the cover plate 20 and the base 10, the contact position of the moving plate 301 and the cover plate 20 can be located at the ribs 24, so as to increase the structural strength of the area where the moving plate 301 acts on the cover plate 20.
[0145] In one implementation, see Figure 5 and Figure 6 The base 10 includes a shell 11 and a limiting plate 12. The limiting plate 12 is located on a side of the shell 11 close to the cover plate 20. The limiting plate 12 and the shell 11 are detachably connected. The limiting plate 12 has a limiting portion 13. The limiting portion 13 is a limiting hole for interlacing and fixing with the container 50, and the opening of the container 50 protrudes from the limiting portion 13.
[0146] Optionally, the base 10 includes a buffer 17, which is located between the shell 11 and the limit plate 12, and the buffer 17 is used to support the container 50. The container 50 is sandwiched between the seal 30 and the buffer 17, and the seal 30 and the buffer 17 are both elastic and can be deformed after being subjected to pressure. The hardness of the seal 30 is greater than or equal to the hardness of the buffer 17, so that in the process of sealing the container 50 at the container sealing device 100, the container 50 presses the buffer 17 from the cover plate 20 toward the base 10, and the buffer 17 is deformed to different degrees at the corresponding positions of different containers 50, so that the heights of multiple containers 50 protruding from the top surface of the base 10 are the same, ensuring the sealing consistency of all containers 50 and improving the sealing effect of multiple containers 50. In addition, the buffer 17 also plays a role in protecting the container 50 to prevent the container 50 from being damaged due to excessive squeezing force.
[0147] Optionally, the material of the buffer component 17 and the material of the sealing component 30 may be the same or similar, and the structure of the buffer component 17 and the composition structure of the sealing component 30 may be the same or similar.
[0148] Optionally, there are multiple limiting portions 13, which are distributed in an array on the limiting plate 12, and each limiting portion 13 corresponds to a fixed container 50, so that the limiting portion 13 and the container 50 correspond one to one, and each container 50 abuts against the buffer 17, so that the buffer 17 deforms to different degrees when supporting different containers 50, so that the heights of the multiple containers 50 protruding from the top surface of the base 10 are the same, thereby ensuring the sealing consistency of all containers 50.
[0149] Optionally, the surface of the shell 11 facing the limit plate 12 has a groove, and the groove is used to accommodate the buffer 17. The bottom wall of the groove has a second pressure relief hole, and the distribution area of the second pressure relief hole at least partially overlaps with the positive projection area of the buffer 17 on the bottom wall of the groove. When the container sealing device 100 seals the container 50, the end of the container 50 facing away from the opening abuts against the buffer 17, and the container 50 presses the buffer 17 from the cover plate 20 toward the base 10. The buffer 17 is deformed after being squeezed. The second pressure relief hole connects the groove and the external space, and is used to discharge the air in the groove when the buffer 17 is deformed and provide a deformation space for the deformation of the buffer 17. The second pressure relief hole relieves pressure on the groove, which is conducive to ensuring the overall flatness of the buffer 17 after being squeezed, and avoiding the partial area of the buffer 17 from warping, which affects the support of the buffer 17 to the container 50.
