Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of magnetic bead separation equipment, in particular to a multi-purpose magnetic frame. Background Art

[0002] Magnetic bead separation technology is often used to process DNA samples in biochemical experiments and medical tests. The use of magnetic beads to separate and extract DNA has been widely used in genetic engineering, research on genetic diseases in medicine, detection of mutant genes, and other fields. The common practice is to add a reagent containing magnetic beads to the DNA sample that needs to be separated and extracted. When no external magnetic field is applied, the reagent in the test tube is fully mixed with the sample so that the magnetic beads adsorb the nucleic acid molecules in the sample. The test tube is then placed on a magnetic stand. The magnetic beads are aggregated by the magnetic system of the magnetic stand or by applying an external magnetic field, and the magnetic beads are separated from the sample solution. The magnetic beads are then washed to obtain the nucleic acid molecules that need to be extracted.

[0003] At present, most of the existing magnetic racks used for magnetic bead separation are designed for 1.5 / 2ml test tubes or centrifuge tubes, and cannot be used to test test tubes or centrifuge tubes of different sizes. However, the requirements for nucleic acid extraction of different samples are different, and a single size of centrifuge tube cannot meet the nucleic acid extraction requirements of various samples in the test, so the laboratory needs to purchase magnetic racks of other specifications separately. However, while purchasing magnetic racks of multiple specifications increases the cost of the experiment, multiple magnetic racks of different specifications are also inconvenient for laboratory management, and operating multiple magnetic racks reduces the efficiency of the experiment.

In addition, the terms "first", "second" and the like are only used for descriptive purposes, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of the indicated technical features.

[0019] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the utility model is a multi-purpose magnetic frame, including a horizontally arranged frame body 1 and a first side frame 2 and a second side frame 3 vertically arranged on both sides of the frame body 1. The frame body 1, the first side frame 2 and the second side frame 3 as a whole form an H-shaped structure. The frame body 1, the first side frame 2 and the second side frame 3 are provided with tube holes of various specifications, which can adapt to test tubes and centrifuge tubes of various specifications.

[0020] In a preferred embodiment, the frame 1 is provided with multiple rows of first tube holes 101 and second tube holes 102 with different apertures. In this embodiment, the first tube holes 101 and the second tube holes 102 are staggered in the same row, which can reduce the space occupied by the frame 1, so that the frame 1 can be provided with multiple tube holes of different specifications. The first side frame 2 and the second side frame 3 are respectively provided with multiple rows of third tube holes 201 and fourth tube holes 301 with different apertures. A magnetic system 4 is provided below the frame 1, and the third tube holes 201 and the fourth tube holes 301 are both arranged in the direction of the magnetic system 4, so that the centrifuge tube can be normally separated by magnetic beads.

[0021] The first side frame 2 and the second side frame 3 are respectively provided with four first suction cups 202 and four second suction cups 302 perpendicular to the horizontal plane. When the first tube hole 101 and the second tube hole 102 on the upper part of the frame body 1 are used, the first suction cup 202 and the four second suction cups 302 are suspended and not used. When the third tube hole 201 is used, the first side frame 2 faces upward, the second side frame 3 faces downward, and the second suction cups 302 are fixed to the experimental table. When the fourth tube hole 301 is used, the second side frame 3 faces upward, the first side frame 2 faces downward, and the first suction cup 202 is fixed to the experimental table.

[0022] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, in a preferred embodiment, an adjusting component 5 for adjusting a row of first tube holes 101 is provided on the upper surface of the frame 1. Of course, there may be multiple adjusting components 5 to adjust multiple rows of first tube holes 101. The adjusting component 5 is connected to a clamping member 6 located above the first tube holes 101. The adjusting component 5 adjusts the clamping member 6 to adapt to centrifuge tubes with different apertures. Of course, when the clamping member 6 is located above the first tube hole 101, the clamping member 6 can only clamp centrifuge tubes with apertures not larger than the first tube hole 101.

[0023] The adjusting component 5 includes two first fixing plates 501 fixed to the upper end of the second side frame 3, an adjusting screw 503 is rotatably connected between the two first fixing plates 501, and two second fixing plates 502 fixed to the upper end of the first side frame 2, a sliding rod 504 is fixedly connected between the two second fixing plates 502. The first transverse plate 506 and the second transverse plate 507 are respectively threadedly connected to the threads at both ends of the adjusting screw 503, and the ends of the first transverse plate 506 and the second transverse plate 507 away from the adjusting screw 503 are slidably connected to the sliding rod 504, and the first transverse plate 506 and the second transverse plate 507 are connected to the clamping member 6. A handle 505 is provided at one end of the adjusting screw 503. When the handle 505 is screwed, the first transverse plate 506 and the second transverse plate 507 are moved closer to or farther away from each other under the action of the adjusting screw 503, so as to adjust the clamping member 6 to adapt to centrifuge tubes of various specifications.

[0024] like Figure 1 and Figure 4As shown, in a preferred embodiment, the clamping member 6 includes a second half ring 602 fixedly connected to the first transverse plate 506 and a first half ring 601 fixedly connected to the second transverse plate 507 and corresponding to the second half ring 602. The first half ring 601 and the second half ring 602 can be two half rings arranged opposite to each other, and the first half ring 601 and the second half ring 602 can be made of elastic material, thereby reducing the rigid clamping of the centrifuge tube and reducing its damage. The first half ring 601 is provided with a groove portion 603, and the second half ring 602 is provided with a protrusion 604 matching the groove portion 603. When the first transverse plate 506 and the second transverse plate 507 are close to each other, the first half ring 601 and the second half ring 602 are close to each other, and the protrusion 604 can be inserted into the groove portion 603, thereby improving the clamping stability of the centrifuge tube.
