Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of identification devices, in particular to an external identification device for a biological sample freezing tube. Background Art
[0002] Cryogenic tubes are a product used to preserve various biological samples such as fungi, genetic information, metabolites, etc. at low temperatures, and play a major role in the biological and medical fields.
[0003] The method of sticking identification labels on the surface of the cryotube often leads to problems, such as the writing being partially or completely damaged and unrecognizable due to moisture or chemicals such as alcohol, or the label being debonded and lost, which results in the inability to correctly identify the sample. Therefore, most people now use built-in identification devices to identify the samples.
[0004] A built-in identification device for a medical biological sample cryopreservation tube is proposed in the Chinese patent publication number: CN220745914U. In this patent, an identification plate is installed on an assembly plate, and the assembly plate is fixed inside a placement slot by a spring so that it is located between an outer cover and a sealing cover, thereby preventing the identification plate from being stained with liquid and preventing the label paper from being debonded and lost.
[0005] However, the device fixes the identification plate by a spring. When the biological samples in the cryotube are frequently replaced, the staff needs to frequently change the information on the identification plate. In this process, the spring is frequently stretched and compressed, which makes the spring prone to metal fatigue, thereby affecting the service life of the spring. The staff needs to replace it frequently, which is too troublesome and easily increases cost expenditure. Utility Model Content

The upper and lower sides of the annular plate 24 are fixedly mounted with semicircular slide plates 29 slidably arranged in the corresponding slide grooves.
[0030] When it is necessary to perform frozen storage of biological samples, the biological samples are placed in cryogenic tubes, and then the cryogenic tubes are placed inside the sleeve 1, thereby completing the storage of the cryogenic tubes. After the information of the biological samples is input into the computer, the printed labels are taken out and pasted into the placement slot 22. The annular plate 24 is moved by the protrusion 27 so that the iron sheet 25 on one side of the annular plate 24 can contact the magnet 26, so that the iron sheet 25 is adsorbed by the magnet 26, thereby completing the closure of the placement slot 22; when it is necessary to replace the label, it is only necessary to move the annular plate 24 by the protrusion 27 to complete the replacement of the label, and the annular plate 24 is fixed by adsorption between the magnet 26 and the iron sheet 25. Since the service life of the magnet 26 is long, the staff does not need to frequently replace the magnet 26, which saves the staff's workload and reduces unnecessary cost expenditure.
[0031] The cooperation between the slide plate 29 and the slide groove enables the annular plate 24 to slide stably inside the annular groove 23 .
[0032] Embodiment 2 of the present utility model is an external identification device for a biological sample freezing tube. Based on embodiment 1, an extraction groove 8 is opened on the inner wall of the placement groove 22.
