Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of test tube mixer modules, in particular to a constant temperature mixer module supporting horizontally placed test tubes. Background Art

[0002] Test tube mixing is a laboratory technique used to mix multiple samples evenly. This usually involves placing the sample in a test tube and then mixing it using rotation or oscillation. The test tube needs to be fixed and limited using a constant temperature mixer module before mixing, such as the TS100 & TCS10 constant temperature mixer proposed by Ling'an Bio Co., Ltd. The above device supports vertical placement of test tubes, but the mixing shear force generated is too large, which is not suitable for mixing certain samples, thereby reducing the overall adaptability of the device. At the same time, the tube needs to be manually fixed and limited by the staff through additional mechanisms when it is placed inside the device, and the test tube needs to be released before it can be taken out normally, which reduces the speed of the test tube mixing process.

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.

[0021] The utility model provides a technical solution, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 A constant temperature mixer module supporting horizontally placed test tubes includes: a box body 1 and a accommodating chamber 2, the box body 1 can be assembled into the interior of the mixer, the accommodating chamber 2 can limit the sample test tube 6, the interior of the accommodating chamber 2 is also embedded with a rubber pad, and the sample test tube 6 can be placed in the interior of the accommodating chamber 2, and the sample test tube 6 is limited and fixed by the rubber pad arranged inside the accommodating chamber 2.

[0022] Limiting nuts 11 are embedded at both ends of the top of the box body 1, and limiting slot blocks 12 are evenly spaced on the outside of the box body 1. The limiting nuts 11 cooperate with the limiting slot blocks 12 to assemble the box body 1 to the inside of the mixer. The accommodating chambers 2 are evenly spaced on the top of the box body 1, and a transverse groove 3 is provided on the top of the box body 1. The transverse groove 3 facilitates the staff's fingers to insert into the interior of the box body 1 and buckle the sample test tube 6 out of the inside of the box body 1.

[0023] See also Figure 3 and Figure 4 The front of the box body 1 is evenly spaced with limiting mechanisms 5, which include L-shaped arms 51. The L-shaped arms 51 can be driven by the fingers of the staff. The back of the L-shaped arm 51 is designed as an inclined surface, and the back of the L-shaped arm 51 is inserted into the inside of the horizontal groove 3. The inclined surface design of the L-shaped arm 51 makes it convenient for the fingers of the staff to enter the inside of the horizontal groove 3 to drive the L-shaped arm 51 to move.

[0024] The bottom of the L-shaped arm 51 is fixedly connected to a sliding block 52, and the outside of the sliding block 52 is slidably connected to a slotted block 53, which is inserted into the interior of the box body 1. A first spring 54 is connected between the sliding block 52 and the slotted block 53. The slotted block 53 cooperates with the sliding block 52 to guide the L-shaped arm 51 so that the L-shaped arm 51 moves in a straight line. The first spring 54 can drive the L-shaped arm 51 to return to its original position after the movement is completed.

[0025] A hollow column 55 is fixedly connected to the top of the L-shaped arm 51, and a trapezoidal slider 57 is slidably connected inside the hollow column 55. The second spring 56 and the trapezoidal slider 57 can limit the sample tube 6. The second spring 56 can drive the trapezoidal slider 57 to return after being driven by the sample tube 6. A second spring 56 is connected between the trapezoidal slider 57 and the hollow column 55. C-shaped grooves 4 are evenly spaced at the top of the box body 1, and the C-shaped grooves 4 are arc-shaped curved grooves. The C-shaped grooves 4 can fix and limit the mouth cover of the sample tube 6.

[0026] The top right side of the trapezoidal slider 57 is designed as an inclined surface, and a rubber pad is embedded in the bottom of the trapezoidal slider 57. The inclined surface design of the trapezoidal slider 57 makes it convenient for the sample test tube 6 to be lowered into the interior of the accommodating chamber 2, thereby driving the trapezoidal slider 57 to retract. The accommodating chamber 2 includes a groove, and a constant temperature heater is embedded in the interior of the groove. The accommodating chamber 2 can limit the sample test tube 6 through the groove, and the test tube can be heated at a constant temperature by the internal constant temperature heater.

[0027] In this solution, the sample test tube 6 is first placed horizontally into the accommodating chamber 2, and the cover end of the sample test tube 6 is inserted into the C-shaped groove 4. When the sample test tube 6 is inserted, the trapezoidal slider 57 is driven to retract into the hollow column 55. When the cover end of the sample test tube 6 is completely inserted into the C-shaped groove 4, the trapezoidal slider 57 is returned by the second spring 56, and then the sample test tube 6 is restricted in the C-shaped groove 4 and the accommodating chamber 2. The box body 1 is assembled to the interior of the constant temperature mixer through the limiting nut 11 and the limiting groove block 12 to mix the sample inside the test tube;

[0028] When the sample mixing process is completed, the staff member buckles his finger into the inside of the horizontal groove 3, and the finger first squeezes the L-shaped arm 51 to move forward, so that the trapezoidal slider 57 is separated from the mouth cover end of the sample test tube 6, and the restriction on the sample test tube 6 is released, and then the sample test tube 6 is buckled out from the inside of the accommodating cavity 2 and the C-shaped groove 4, and then the disassembly of the sample test tube 6 is completed;

[0029] When the sample tube 6 is placed in the box body 1, the additional limiting mechanism 5 can be used to quickly fix and limit the sample tube 6 to prevent the sample tube 6 from falling during the mixing process. At the same time, the sample tube 6 can be fixed by the additional accommodating cavity 2 and the C-shaped groove 4 to prevent the sample tube 6 from being subjected to excessive mixing shear force when fixed by a traditional device, which is not suitable for mixing certain samples and thus reduces the overall adaptability of the device. At the same time, through the additional transverse groove 3, the sample tube 6 can be quickly disassembled by the staff's finger after the mixing process is completed, thereby improving the mixing speed of the sample.
