Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of culture racks, in particular to a culture rack with adjustable angles. Background Art
[0002] A culture rack is a rack used to hang or place culture containers in laboratory environments such as plant tissue culture, laboratory cell culture, and microbial culture. It provides an orderly and easy-to-manage work platform for culture work, while ensuring the consistency and repeatability of culture conditions. Most of the existing culture racks are fixed in one direction for use, but different types of cells may require different lighting, temperature, and gas exchange conditions during the culture process, and culture racks that are inconvenient to adjust will affect work efficiency; so we proposed a culture rack with adjustable angle to solve the above problems.

[0005] Preferably, the test tube vessel is first placed on the circular base through the circular notch, and then the telescopic push rod drives the arc clamping plate to move through the driving of the telescopic driver, so that the second arc rubber pad is close to the middle part of the test tube vessel for fixing and clamping it, and then the square slider drives the arc telescopic sleeve to slide along the rectangular groove and connect with the circular base through the driving of the driver, so that the arc telescopic plate contracts along the arc telescopic sleeve, driving the first arc rubber pad close to the bottom of the test tube vessel for limiting and fixing it, so as to avoid the test tube vessel from slipping when the placement plate is rotated. When the test tube vessel is fixed, according to the required culture height, the first telescopic sleeve drives the test tube vessel to move upward to a suitable height along the first telescopic column through the driving of the cylinder. In this process, through the adjustment of the latch, the second telescopic sleeve drives the circular base to move upward to a suitable height along the second telescopic column, and then the latch passes through the second telescopic sleeve and is positioned and connected with the second telescopic column through the circular hole, so that the test tube vessel reaches a suitable height for convenient culture.
[0006] Preferably, the load-bearing component includes a load-bearing platform, on which are transversely provided a plurality of slide grooves for sliding of the fixed component. The load-bearing platform provides stable support for the placed test tubes and vessels, and the slide grooves facilitate sliding of the rectangular slider.

When the test tube vessel starts to adjust the height, the second telescopic sleeve drives the circular base to move upward to a suitable height along the second telescopic column through the adjustment of the pin. Then the pin passes through the second telescopic sleeve and is positioned and connected to the second telescopic column through the circular hole. When the test tube vessel starts to adjust the angle, according to the rotation angle of the placement plate, the rotating shaft drives the circular base to rotate to a suitable angle along the first rotating ring sleeve through the drive of the driver. At the same time, through the drive of the driver, the rectangular slider drives the second telescopic column to move to a suitable position along the slide groove, thereby completing the angle adjustment of the test tube vessel, thereby improving the culture efficiency.

A circular groove for the test tube container to pass through is opened on the placement plate and the circular base. A driver is installed inside the connecting shaft. The test tube container is positioned and connected to the placement plate through the circular groove. When the angle of the test tube container needs to be adjusted, the connecting shaft drives the placement plate to rotate along the second rotating ring sleeve to a suitable angle through the drive of the driver. In this process, the angle sensor can be used to detect in real time whether the suitable angle is reached.

[0012] Beneficial effects of the utility model:
[0013] 1. In the past, most culture racks were fixed in one direction for use. However, different types of cells may require different lighting, temperature and gas exchange conditions during the culture process, and the inconveniently adjusted culture rack will affect the work efficiency. The difference is that the test tube vessel is first placed on the round base through the circular notch, and then the telescopic push rod drives the arc clamping plate to move through the drive of the telescopic driver, so that the second arc-shaped rubber cushion is close to the middle of the test tube vessel to fix it. Then, through the drive of the driver, the square slider drives the arc-shaped telescopic sleeve to slide along the rectangular groove and connect with the round base, so that the arc-shaped telescopic plate moves along the arc. The telescopic sleeve contracts, driving the first arc-shaped rubber pad to fit closely to the bottom of the test tube container, and fixes it in a limited position to prevent the test tube container from slipping when the placement plate is rotated. After the test tube container is fixed, according to the required culture height, the first telescopic sleeve drives the test tube container to move upward to a suitable height along the first telescopic column through the drive of the cylinder. In this process, the second telescopic sleeve drives the circular base to move upward to a suitable height along the second telescopic column through the adjustment of the pin, and then the pin passes through the second telescopic sleeve and is positioned and connected with the second telescopic column through the circular hole, so that the test tube container reaches a suitable height for convenient culture.
[0014] 2. When the angle of the test tube vessel needs to be adjusted, the driver drives the connecting shaft to drive the placement plate to rotate along the second rotating ring sleeve to a suitable angle. In this process, the angle sensor can detect in real time whether the appropriate angle has been reached. At the same time, according to the rotation angle of the placement plate, the driver drives the rotating shaft to drive the circular base to rotate along the first rotating ring sleeve to a suitable angle. Then, the driver drives the rectangular slider to move the second telescopic column along the slide groove to a suitable position, thereby completing the angle adjustment of the test tube vessel and improving the culture efficiency.

[0024] When working, the test tube vessel is first placed on the circular base 307 through the circular notch 405, and then the telescopic push rod 502 drives the arc clamping plate 503 to move through the drive of the telescopic driver 501, so that the second arc rubber pad 504 is close to the middle of the test tube vessel and fixedly clamped, and then the square slider 309 drives the arc telescopic sleeve 310 to slide along the rectangular groove 308 and the circular base 307 through the drive of the driver, so that the arc telescopic plate 311 shrinks along the arc telescopic sleeve 310, driving the first arc rubber pad 312 to approach the bottom of the test tube vessel and limit and fix it, so as to prevent the test tube vessel from slipping when the placement plate 401 rotates.
