[0023] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments:

[0024] like Figure 1-2 As shown, an automatic bead feeder with selective bead addition includes a bead storage chamber assembly 1, a quantitative control mechanism 2, a hand handle 3, and a bead dispensing tube 4.

[0025] The quantitative control mechanism 2 is connected to the bottom of the bead storage chamber, the hand handle 3 is connected to the end of the quantitative control mechanism 2 away from the bead storage chamber, and the bead outlet tube 4 is set on the end of the hand handle 3 away from the quantitative control mechanism 2.

[0026] The bead storage chamber assembly 1 includes a turntable base and bead storage chambers. The turntable base is provided with docking holes, which are connected to the quantitative control mechanism 2. There are several docking holes. Several bead storage chambers can be installed in the docking holes. The interior of the bead storage chambers can store homogenized beads. Homogenized beads of different specifications can be stored in different bead storage chambers. By rotating the turntable, the bead storage chamber containing homogenized beads of the required specifications is selected and connected to the quantitative control mechanism 2 through the docking holes, so that the homogenized beads of the required specifications fall into the quantitative control mechanism 3022.

[0027] The bottom of the bead storage compartment is equipped with sheet-like desiccant to prevent the stored homogenized beads from getting damp.

[0028] The quantitative control mechanism 2 is connected to the bottom of the turntable base, receives the homogenized beads falling from the bead storage assembly 1, and controls their quantity. The quantitative control mechanism 2 is equipped with a rotating quantitative disk 201, which has several quantitative grooves arranged on it. The quantitative grooves have different specifications such as 1-hole groove, 3-hole groove, 5-hole groove, and 10-hole groove. The rotating quantitative disk 201 can be rotated 60°-90°. The bottom of the quantitative control mechanism 3022 is equipped with a bead outlet channel, which is located directly below the rotating quantitative disk 201. When the rotating quantitative disk 201 rotates to align a certain group of grooves (such as a 5-hole groove) with the outlet of the bead storage assembly 1, the homogenized beads fall into these grooves. At the same time, the rotating quantitative disk 201 is rotated 60°-90° so that the group of grooves filled with homogenized beads is aligned with the bead outlet channel below, and the beads enter the hand handle 3 connected to the bottom of the quantitative control mechanism 2 through the bead outlet channel.

[0029] The top of the handle 3 is connected to the bottom of the quantitative control mechanism 2. The handle 3 has a bead passage 301 inside, which is connected to the bead outlet channel. The handle 3 has a control mechanism 302. The control mechanism 302 can control the rotating quantitative disk 201 of the quantitative control mechanism 2. Thus, the control mechanism 302 controls the rotating quantitative disk 201 to flip, and the homogenized beads fall into the bead outlet channel inside the handle 3, and then fall into the bead outlet tube 4 through the bead outlet channel.

[0030] The bead outlet tube 4 is connected to the handle 3 and the bead outlet channel. The outlet of the bead outlet tube 4 is an adjustable three-jaw outlet. An adjustment knob 303 is provided above the three-jaw outlet. The opening and closing of the three-jaw outlet can be adjusted by adjusting the knob. In this way, the opening and closing degree of the three-jaw outlet can be adjusted according to the corresponding work needs to match the corresponding specification of homogenized beads. At the same time, the adjustable three-jaw outlet can be adjusted to open and close according to different specifications of centrifuge tubes to ensure a tight fit and prevent homogenized beads from falling out and causing contamination.

[0031] The above descriptions are merely embodiments of the present invention, and common knowledge such as specific technical solutions and / or characteristics are not described in detail here. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the technical solutions of the present invention, and these should also be considered within the scope of protection of the present invention. These modifications and improvements will not affect the effectiveness of the implementation of the present invention or the practicality of the patent. The scope of protection claimed in this application should be determined by the content of its claims, and the specific embodiments described in the specification can be used to interpret the content of the claims.
