DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0037] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0038] A NK cell culture box, comprising a box body 10 and a box door 11, wherein the box body 10 and the box door 11 represent the structure of an existing NK cell culture box, wherein how to control the temperature and how to control the CO 2 The concentration can be adjusted using existing methods, which will not be elaborated in this application.

[0039] In the examples of this application, please refer to Figure 1 , 2 3. A sealing gasket 20 is provided between the box body 10 and the box door 11. A plurality of placement plates 30 are provided inside the box body 10. A plurality of through holes are provided in the middle of the placement plates 30. First guide grooves 40 are provided on both the front and rear sides of the placement plates 30. A plurality of guide posts 50 are fixed on both the front and rear sides of the inner wall of the box body 10. The guide posts 50 extend into the first guide grooves 40. Specifically, the first guide grooves 40 include guide grooves 41 transversely provided on the side of the placement plates 30. The guide posts 50 slide inside the guide grooves 41.

[0040] The user can first pull out the placement plate 30, then place the culture plate on the placement plate 30, and then slowly slide the placement plate 30 in. The operation is simple and no longer requires the user to put both hands in. Therefore, the user can better control the stability of both hands when taking and placing, and the culture solution is not easily spilled, which brings convenience to the user.

[0041] For further information, see Figure 1 , 2and 3. A plurality of second guide grooves 60 are provided on the front and rear sides of the inner wall of the box body 10, and a roller structure 70 extending into the second guide groove 60 is provided on the front and rear sides of the placement plate 30, and the roller structure 70 is located on the side of the placement plate 30 away from the box door 11, wherein the second guide groove 60 includes a transverse groove 61 provided on the inner wall of the box body 10, and the roller structure 70 slides in the transverse groove 61. In the process of the placement plate 30 sliding in and out, the roller structure 70 slides in the transverse groove 61, and the guide column 50 slides inside the guide groove 41, and they cooperate with each other to stabilize the sliding of the placement plate 30.

[0042] Meanwhile, a handle 31 is fixed to the bottom of the placement plate 30 , and the handle 31 is close to the box door 11 , so that the user can pull the placement plate 30 .

[0043] For further examples, see Figure 1 , 2 And 3, in order to facilitate the adjustment of the position of the placement plate 30, the first guide groove 40 also includes a through groove 42 vertically opened on the side of the placement plate 30, the through groove 42 is connected to the side of the guide groove 41 away from the box door 11, and the second guide groove 60 also includes a vertical groove 62 opened on the inner wall of the box body 10, and the vertical groove 62 is connected to the end of the horizontal groove 61 close to the box door 11. When the position needs to be changed, the placement plate 30 is pulled out to the maximum stroke, and then the placement plate 30 is moved up or down, so that the corresponding guide column 50 is drawn through the through groove 42, and then the new guide column 50 slides in, and at the same time, the roller structure 70 slides into the new horizontal groove 61 through the vertical groove 62, and then the placement plate 30 is pushed in to complete the position adjustment.

[0044] In order to avoid directly extending the placement plate 30 to its maximum stroke during normal use, a first limit block 43 is fixed inside the guide groove 41, and the first limit block 43 is away from the box door 11. A second limit block 63 is fixed inside the transverse groove 61, and the second limit block 63 is close to the box door 11. When the placement plate 30 is pulled out, the guide column 50 and the roller structure 70 will be blocked by the first limit block 43 and the second limit block 63, and thus cannot be pulled further, thereby avoiding accidentally pulling the placement plate 30 over the position. When the position needs to be changed, the placement plate 30 is moved so that the guide column 50 and the roller structure 70 bypass the first limit block 43 and the second limit block 63, and then the above-mentioned position change operation is continued.

[0045] In a further embodiment, the roller structure 70 includes a fixed shaft 71 fixed to the side of the placement plate 30, and the outside of the fixed shaft 71 is rotatably connected to a rotating wheel 72 through a bearing 73. The rotating wheel 72 is located inside the transverse groove 61. During the sliding of the placement plate 30, the sliding can be facilitated by the rolling of the rotating wheel 72.

[0046] It should be noted that, in this article, relational terms such as first and second, etc. are only used to distinguish one entity or operation from another entity or operation, and do not necessarily require or imply any such actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Moreover, the terms "include", "comprise" or any other variants thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, so that a process, method, article or device including a series of elements includes not only those elements, but also other elements not explicitly listed, or also includes elements inherent to such process, method, article or device. In the absence of further restrictions, the elements defined by the sentence "comprise a ..." do not exclude the existence of other identical elements in the process, method, article or device including the elements.

[0047] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and that the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
