[0002] Liquid nitrogen grinding also has certain applications in biomaterial processing. In the field of biomaterials, liquid nitrogen grinding is often used to prepare samples, especially for those biological samples that need to be processed at low temperatures. Liquid nitrogen grinding is a common and effective method; the extremely low temperature of liquid nitrogen can quickly freeze biological samples, thereby solidifying the cell structure and preventing changes in the biomolecules in the sample. This is very important for maintaining the original structure and characteristics of the sample, especially in molecular biology, biochemistry and medical research. At the same time, liquid nitrogen grinding can also be used to break cell walls and release biomolecules in the cell, such as proteins, nucleic acids, etc., for subsequent analysis and experimental operations.

[0003] However, during the liquid nitrogen grinding operation, liquid nitrogen is easily splashed when added to the sample grinding cup, which not only causes frostbite, but also the sample may overflow with the liquid nitrogen, causing the loss of grinding materials and affecting subsequent experimental research.

[0025] The catheter assembly 5 includes a first straight tube 51, a curved tube 52 and a second straight tube 53 which are fixedly connected end to end in sequence. The first straight tube 51 is connected to the funnel 6, and the curved tube 52 is a U-shaped structure and is arranged transversely.

[0026] The invention also comprises a cup sleeve 9 which is sleeved on the outside of the grinding cup 1 and is used for heat insulation and is convenient for hand holding.

[0027] A cover 2 is added to the grinding cup 1. The cover 2 is made of a transparent acrylic material, which helps to observe the liquid nitrogen capacity and the degree of sample grinding in the grinding cup 1. The setting of the cover 2 helps to prevent liquid nitrogen from splashing out of the grinding cup 1 when adding liquid nitrogen.
