Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of storage container technology, specifically to an intelligent storage device for biopsy samples used in hepatobiliary surgery. Background Technology
[0002] Hepatobiliary biopsy, as a core method for the precise diagnosis of hepatobiliary diseases, enables minimally invasive tissue sampling for pathological and molecular testing. This compensates for the limitations of imaging in identifying microscopic abnormalities and blood tests in localization, providing crucial evidence for disease diagnosis, treatment planning, and prognostic assessment. In my country's primary care and non-specialized hospitals, due to a lack of pathology equipment and qualified physicians, biopsy tissues must be sent to qualified institutions for testing.
[0003] Current methods for transporting liver and gallbladder samples involve placing ice or refrigeration equipment in storage boxes to maintain the temperature of the tissue specimens in the vials during transport. However, in actual transport, the bumps and vibrations from the vehicle can severely affect the integrity of the biopsy tissue, leading to two major problems.
[0004] First, the failure of tissue morphology testing can easily lead to misdiagnosis: because the bumps can cause the tissue to collide with the bottle wall, resulting in the tissue edges being broken or the intact tissue being fragmented. It is difficult to obtain complete pathological sections in the future, and doctors cannot accurately identify the subtle differences between cells, which can easily lead to misjudgment, resulting in overtreatment and irreversible damage to the patient's liver and gallbladder organs.
[0005] Secondly, vibrations during transport can damage cell structure, causing cell contents to leak out and resulting in nucleic acid degradation. This can lead to distorted results in molecular testing such as PCR and gene sequencing, especially in tumor mutation testing, where false positives or false negatives may occur. As a result, patients may miss valuable opportunities for targeted therapy or be given ineffective drugs, all of which can cause the patient's condition to continue to deteriorate, affecting their health and lifespan.
[0006] Therefore, in order to address the above-mentioned technical problems, it is necessary to provide an intelligent storage device for biopsy samples used in hepatobiliary surgery. Summary of the Invention

Detailed Implementation
[0022] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0023] like Figures 1 to 8 As shown in one embodiment of the present invention, an intelligent storage device for biopsy samples in hepatobiliary surgery includes a storage box 1, a lid 2 covering the storage box 1, an electronic lock seat 7 installed on the storage box 1, and a locking plate 701 matching the electronic lock seat 7 on the lid 2. When the lid 2 is closed on the storage box 1, the electronic lock seat 7 and the locking plate 701 cooperate to lock the lid 2 onto the storage box 1. A first partition 101 is welded to the storage box 1, dividing the storage box 1 into a sample storage area 102 and an equipment placement area 103. Multiple protective cups 13 are installed in the sample storage area 102, and the multiple protective cups 13 are respectively adhered to the upper plate of the first partition 101. The protective cups 13 are filled with water. A sealing block 11 matching the protective cup 13 is adhered to the lid 2. When the lid 2 is closed on the storage box 1, the sealing block 11 presses on the protective cup 13 to seal the protective cup 13 and prevent the water inside the protective cup 13 from leaking out. A specimen bottle 27 for holding hepatobiliary biopsy samples is placed inside a protective cup 13. The specimen bottle 27 is filled with formalin solution and has a cap 2701 threaded onto it. A refrigeration device 10 is detachably installed on the storage box 1. The refrigeration device 10 is welded with a first gas supply pipe 1001, the end of which passes through the storage box 1 and extends into it. During the transport of hepatobiliary biopsy samples, liquid nitrogen from the refrigeration device 10 enters the storage box 1 through the first gas supply pipe 1001, maintaining a low temperature inside the storage box 1 and preventing the hepatobiliary biopsy sample tissue from autolyzing or deteriorating. The intelligent storage device for hepatobiliary biopsy samples also includes a shock-absorbing mechanism and an intelligent control mechanism. During the transport of hepatobiliary biopsy samples, the shock-absorbing mechanism reduces the vibration experienced by the specimen bottle 27, thereby protecting the hepatobiliary biopsy sample inside. The intelligent control mechanism includes a controller 8, which is embedded in the cover 2. The controller 8 and multiple infusion pumps 17 are electrically connected.
[0024] Specifically, such as Figures 3 to 10As shown, the shock absorption mechanism includes a battery 4, a spray box 15, a mounting box 16, and multiple infusion pumps 17. A first mounting bracket 3, matching the battery 4, is welded onto the storage box 1, and the battery 4 is inserted into the first mounting bracket 3. A plug 5 is electrically connected to the battery 4. A socket 6, matching the plug 5, is fixedly installed on the storage box 1 by bolts. Multiple infusion pumps 17 are electrically connected to socket 6, and the plug 5 is plugged into socket 6. The controller 8 can control the start or stop of multiple infusion pumps 17 individually. The spray box 15 is snapped onto the bottom wall of the protective cup 13. A second spray hole 1502 is opened on the spray box 15, and a second infusion pipe 1501, connected to the outlet of the infusion pump 17, is integrally formed on the spray box 15. The fixing box 16 is integrally formed on the protective cup 13. The protective cup 13 has a first drain hole 1301. The fixing box 16 has a second drain hole 1601 that matches the first drain hole 1301. A third infusion tube 1602 is welded on the fixing box 16. The end of the third infusion tube 1602 away from the fixing box 16 is connected to the inlet of the infusion pump 17.
[0025] Specifically, when transporting hepatobiliary biopsy samples, the samples are placed in specimen bottle 27 and cap 2701 is screwed on. The samples will sink within the bottle 27 until they reach the bottom of the cup. The specimen bottle 27 containing the samples is then placed into protective cup 13 and the lid 2 is closed. The bottle 27 gradually sinks to the bottom of protective cup 13. The infusion pump 17 is then activated, drawing water from protective cup 13 through the third infusion tube 1602 and spraying it from the second spray hole 1502. As water sprays from the second spray hole 1502, the water flow pushes the specimen bottle 27 upwards. During this upward movement within protective cup 13, the thrust exerted by the water flow from the second spray hole 1502 on the specimen bottle 27 gradually decreases, eventually causing the bottle 27 to float stably in the middle of protective cup 13. During transportation, even if the protective cup 13 is subjected to bumps and vibrations, the protective cup 13 and the specimen bottle 27 do not come into contact. With the buffering effect of water, the vibration experienced by the specimen bottle 27 will be greatly reduced, which can effectively protect the integrity of the liver and gallbladder biopsy sample inside the specimen bottle 27.
[0026] It should be noted that the specimen bottle 27 containing the liver and gallbladder biopsy sample has a weight of G, a buoyant force of F in the water, and a thrust of T from the water flow. Since F + T > G, the water jet at the second spray hole 1502 allows the specimen bottle 27 to float in the protective cup 13. As the specimen bottle 27 floats, the thrust from the water flow gradually decreases. When the specimen bottle 27 is located in the middle of the protective cup 13, the thrust from the water flow on the specimen bottle 27 is L, and F + L = G, thus allowing the specimen bottle 27 to float in the middle of the protective cup 13.
[0027] Preferably, specimen bottle 27 is a polypropylene bottle, whose density is slightly less than that of water. When specimen bottle 27 is filled with formalin solution and liver and gallbladder biopsy samples, its density will be slightly greater than that of water. Thus, when infusion pump 17 is started, the second spray hole 1502 does not need to spray excessively high water pressure to push specimen bottle 27 to float. The water in protective cup 13 is physiological saline, which is simple in composition, sterile, and suitable for medical use.
[0028] Furthermore, a liquid distribution plate 1503 is integrally formed inside the spray box 15. The liquid distribution plate 1503 has multiple pressure equalization holes. The pressure equalization holes can stabilize the water pressure inside the spray box 15 and ensure that the water pressure sprayed from the multiple second spray holes 1502 is consistent.
[0029] It is worth noting that during transportation, the specimen bottle 27 floating inside the protective cup 13 may collide with the cup wall of the protective cup 13. Furthermore, the shock absorption mechanism also includes a homogenizer 14, which is inserted into the protective cup 13. The homogenizer 14 has a connected cavity 1401 and a first spray hole 1402. Multiple connecting pipes 1404 are integrally formed on the homogenizer 14. An annular pipe 1403 is welded to the end of the multiple connecting pipes 1404 away from the homogenizer 14. A first infusion pipe 1408 is welded to the annular pipe 1403. The end of the first infusion pipe 1408 away from the annular pipe 1403 is welded to another outlet of the infusion pump 17. When the infusion pump 17 is started, it not only delivers water to the protective cup 13 through the second infusion tube 1501, but also delivers water to the homogenizer 14 through the first infusion tube 1408. The water entering the homogenizer 14 flows through the cavity 1401 and is sprayed out from the first spray hole 1402, which generates a thrust on the specimen bottle 27 in the protective cup 13, causing the specimen bottle 27 to float in the center of the protective cup 13. This prevents the specimen bottle 27 from moving laterally in the protective cup 13 and causing a collision, thus improving the protection of the liver and gallbladder biopsy samples in the specimen bottle 27.
[0030] A clamp 1407 is integrally formed on the liquid distributor 14. The distance between the clamp 1407 and the liquid distributor 14 matches the wall thickness of the protective cup 13. The liquid distributor 14 is fastened to the protective cup 13 by the clamp 1407. When the liquid distributor 14 is fastened to the protective cup 13, the lower part of the liquid distributor 14 can also abut against the spray box 15 at the bottom of the protective cup 13.
[0031] Furthermore, the liquid equalizer 14 is provided with a liquid permeation section 1406 that matches the first drain hole 1301. Water in the protective cup 13 can flow into the fixed box 16 through the liquid permeation section 1406, realizing water circulation in the protective cup 13. During the entire transportation process, the water in the protective cup 13 will not decrease or increase.
[0032] It is worth noting that during transportation, in addition to the vehicle's ability to withstand road bumps, the vehicle's acceleration or braking can also disrupt the stability of the water inside the protective cup 13. Especially when the vehicle brakes suddenly, the water inside the protective cup 13 tends to maintain its original state due to inertia, causing the water inside the protective cup 13 to move in the direction of the vehicle's movement. The specimen bottle 27 inside the protective cup 13 will also undergo the same movement, and the water flow sprayed from the first spray hole 1402 may not be able to prevent the collision between the specimen bottle 27 and the homogenizer 14.
[0033] Furthermore, such as Figures 2 to 11 As shown, a liquid level sensor 12, matching the liquid permeation section 1406, is welded onto the sealing block 11. When the cover 2 is closed on the storage tank 1, the liquid level sensor 12 is inserted into the liquid permeation section 1406. Multiple partition blocks 1409 are integrally formed on the liquid equalizer 14, dividing the liquid equalizer 14 into multiple spray sections that match the connecting pipe 1404. Cavities 1401 are evenly distributed on the multiple spray sections, and a second solenoid valve 1405 matching the spray section is fixedly connected to the connecting pipe 1404.
[0034] Specifically, when the vehicle brakes suddenly, the water in the protective cup 13 moves in the direction of vehicle travel. At this time, the water in the protective cup 13 will submerge the liquid level sensor 12 in the direction of vehicle travel. The liquid level sensor 12 sends a signal to the second solenoid valve 1405, which will automatically adjust its opening size to control the water flow from the connecting pipe 1404 into the spray section, increasing the water flow in the spray section corresponding to the direction of vehicle travel. This increases the thrust on the specimen bottle 27, preventing the specimen bottle 27 from colliding with the equalizer 14. Specifically, when the opening angle of one of the second solenoid valves 1405 increases, the opening angle of the other corresponding second solenoid valve 1405 decreases. When the thrust on one side of the specimen bottle 27 increases, the thrust on the other side decreases. This not only makes it easier to counteract the inertial force on the specimen bottle 27, but also maintains a stable flow of water from the annular pipe 1403.
[0035] It should be noted that there are at least four injection units, and even when the vehicle turns during driving, the four injection units can correspond to the four directions of east, west, south, and north respectively.
[0036] like Figure 3 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 , Figure 12 and Figure 13As shown, the end of the first gas supply pipe 1001 away from the refrigeration unit 10 is located in the equipment placement area 103. The equipment placement area 103 is equipped with a temperature control component for adjusting the water temperature in the protective cup 13. The temperature control component includes a heat exchange tank 18 matched with the infusion pump 17, a gas distribution valve 1002, and a temperature sensor 28. The heat exchange tank 18 is welded to the infusion pump 17, and the third infusion pipe 1602 passes through the heat exchange tank 18. The gas distribution valve 1002 is welded to the first gas supply pipe 1001, and multiple second gas supply pipes 1003 are welded to the gas distribution valve 1002. The end of each second gas supply pipe 1003 away from the gas distribution valve 1002 is welded to the heat exchange tank 18, and a first solenoid valve 1004 is welded to each second gas supply pipe 1003. The refrigeration unit 10 discharges cold air, which is then diverted through the gas distribution valve 1002 and flows into each heat exchange tank 18 via the second gas supply pipe 1003. Since part of the third liquid supply pipe 1602 is also located within the heat exchange tank 18, the cold air in the heat exchange tank 18 and the water flowing in the third liquid supply pipe 1602 cool each other, thus lowering the water temperature. The cooled water flows into the protective cup 13, maintaining a lower temperature within the cup and thus cooling the specimen bottle 27. This allows for cryogenic preservation of liver and gallbladder biopsy samples during transport. Furthermore, because the specimen bottle 27 is submerged in water, the cooling effect is more uniform, which is beneficial for the storage of liver and gallbladder biopsy samples.
[0037] Furthermore, the temperature sensor 28 is welded to the first infusion tube 1408. When the cooled water flows from the first infusion tube 1408 into the protective cup 13, the temperature sensor 28 identifies the temperature of the water and controls the opening size of the first solenoid valve 1004 according to the temperature of the water flowing in the first infusion tube 1408, so that the water in each protective cup 13 can maintain a certain temperature, thereby ensuring that the biopsy sample in the specimen bottle 27 can be stored at a relatively stable temperature.
[0038] Preferably, the water temperature flowing into the protective cup 13 is 3.5°C, and after being conducted through the specimen bottle 27, the formalin temperature in the specimen bottle 27 is maintained at 4°C, which is the optimal temperature for protecting liver and gallbladder biopsy samples.
[0039] Furthermore, to enhance the heat exchange effect on the water, a second partition 19, a third partition 20, and a fourth partition 21 are integrally formed on the heat exchange tank 18. A liquid passage chamber 1801 is formed between the second partition 19 and the heat exchange tank 18, a cooling chamber 1802 is formed between the second partition 19 and the third partition 20, and a liquid collection chamber 1803 is formed between the third partition 20 and the fourth partition 21. The second gas supply pipe 1003 is connected to the cooling chamber 1802, and the third liquid supply pipe 1602 is connected to the liquid passage chamber 1801. Multiple distribution pipes 22 capable of connecting the liquid passage chamber 1801 and the liquid collection chamber 1803 are welded onto the second partition 19 and the third partition 20. A fourth liquid supply pipe 25 connected to the liquid collection chamber 1803 is welded onto the heat exchange tank 18, and the end of the fourth liquid supply pipe 25 away from the heat exchange tank 18 is welded to the inlet of the liquid pump 17. Water in the protective cup 13 flows from the third infusion tube 1602 into the liquid passage chamber 1801, and after being diverted by multiple distribution tubes 22, flows into the liquid collection chamber 1803, and then flows into the infusion pump 17 from the fourth infusion tube 25. Because the water in the third infusion tube 1602 is diverted by multiple distribution tubes 22, and the heat exchange area of the cold air in the cooling chamber 1802 is increased, a better heat exchange effect can be achieved.
[0040] Preferably, the liquid separator 22 is a copper tube, and multiple fins are welded on the liquid separator 22 to further improve the heat exchange effect.
[0041] A third air supply pipe 23 for connecting the cooling chamber 1802 and the air collection chamber 1804 is welded on the third partition 20 and the fourth partition 21. A fourth air supply pipe 24 connected to the first solenoid valve 1004 is welded on the heat exchange tank 18. The cold air entering the cooling chamber 1802 can be discharged from the fourth air supply pipe 24, so that the cooling chamber 1802 can continuously receive cold air and ensure the heat exchange effect.
[0042] It is worth noting that when multiple infusion pumps 17 work together, the heat generated by each infusion pump 17 is relatively large, which will cause the temperature inside the storage tank 1 to rise. Furthermore, a heat sink 26 is welded onto the fourth gas pipe 24, and a jet hole 2601 is opened on the heat sink 26. The cold air flowing out of the cooling chamber 1802 is sprayed onto the infusion pump 17 through the jet hole 2601 to cool down the infusion pump 17 and prevent the temperature of the infusion pump 17 from rising when it is working, which would cause the temperature of the entire storage tank 1 to become too high.
[0043] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 12 As shown, the storage box 1 has an air vent 104 that is connected to the equipment placement area 103. The gas in the equipment placement area 103 will flow out from the air vent 104, carrying away the heat in the equipment placement area 103.
[0044] like Figures 1 to 3As shown, a first fixing frame 3 is integrally formed on the storage box 1, and the battery 4 is plugged into the first fixing frame 3. During the transportation of liver and gallbladder biopsy samples, if the battery 4 runs out of power, the plug 5 on the socket 6 can be unplugged and a new battery 4 can be replaced to ensure the continuous operation of the infusion pump 17. Of course, the infusion pump 17 can also be operated by connecting the power supply of the transport vehicle through the socket 6.
[0045] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 5 and Figure 14 As shown, a second mounting bracket 9 is welded onto the storage box 1, and a refrigeration device 10 is inserted into the second mounting bracket 9. A switch 1005 matching the first gas supply pipe 1001 is fixedly installed on the refrigeration device 10, and a quick connector 1006 is welded onto the second mounting bracket 9. Preferably, the refrigeration device 10 can be a self-pressurized liquid nitrogen tank. Self-pressurized liquid nitrogen tanks have low operating costs and excellent cooling effect. When transporting liver and gallbladder biopsy samples, the switch 1005 is turned on, and the liquid nitrogen in the refrigeration device 10 is discharged into the cooling chamber 1802 to cool the dispensing pipe 22. After the liquid nitrogen in the refrigeration device 10 is consumed, the first gas supply pipe 1001 can be pulled out through the quick connector 1006, a new refrigeration device 10 can be replaced, and then the switch 1005 on the new refrigeration device 10 can be turned on.
[0046] It should be noted that after the liver and gallbladder biopsy sample is transported to the testing site and the specimen bottle 27 is taken out, the water in multiple protective cups 13 is poured out by flipping the storage box 1, and then disinfectant is injected into the protective cups 13 and each infusion pump 17 is started to circulate the disinfectant, thereby disinfecting the protective cups 13, the homogenizer 14, the spray box 15 and the fixing box 16. The disinfectant can also improve the disinfection effect after multiple cycles.
[0047] When using, such as Figures 1 to 8As shown, first, the specimen bottle 27 containing the liver and gallbladder biopsy sample is placed into the protective cup 13. Then, the box lid 2 is closed and the infusion pump 17 is started through the controller 8. After the infusion pump 17 is started, it draws water from the protective cup 13 and sprays it out from the first spray hole 1402 and the second spray hole 1502. The water flow from the second spray hole 1502 pushes the specimen bottle 27 upward, so that the specimen bottle 27 is suspended in the middle of the protective cup 13. The water flow from the first spray hole 1402 pushes the specimen bottle 27 to prevent the specimen bottle 27 from colliding with the homogenizer 14. During transport of hepatobiliary biopsy samples, even when the vehicle is traveling on bumpy roads, the specimen bottle 27 does not come into direct contact with other objects, which significantly reduces the vibration experienced by the hepatobiliary biopsy samples inside the specimen bottle 27. This not only ensures the integrity of the hepatobiliary biopsy sample tissue but also prevents damage to the cellular structure of the hepatobiliary biopsy sample, thus ensuring the accuracy of subsequent pathological analysis and molecular testing results. In turn, it improves the accuracy and safety of clinical diagnosis, ensuring that patients receive correct diagnosis and effective treatment.
