[0002] NK cells, namely natural killer cells, are an important cell type in the human immune system. They belong to a type of lymphocytes and mainly exist in blood, lymphoid tissues and certain organs. The main function of NK cells is to identify and kill virus-infected cells and certain cancer cells. Different from T cells that need to identify specific antigens in advance, NK cells can directly identify and attack abnormal cells, so they are called "natural" killers.
[0003] During the research process of NK cells, it is usually necessary to cryopreserve them to ensure their activity. At present, when cryopreserving NK cells, they are usually placed in a test tube and then placed in a cryopreservation box.
[0004] When the existing cryopreservation equipment is performing cryopreservation work, it is difficult to firmly fix the test tube. When shaken, the test tube is easy to shake and collide, resulting in a broken phenomenon. Therefore, an NK cell cryopreservation device is provided to solve the above problems. Content of the Utility Model

Detailed Description of the Preferred Embodiments
[0020] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0021] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 , in the embodiments proposed in this application: A NK cell cryopreservation device includes a cryopreservation box 1 and a test tube 2. A plurality of placement plates 3 are horizontally slidably arranged in the cryopreservation box 1 from top to bottom. Corresponding to the plurality of placement plates 3, sliding grooves 11 are horizontally and longitudinally arranged on the left and right side walls of the cryopreservation box 1. Corresponding to the sliding grooves 11, limit slide rails 35 are arranged on the left and right sides of the placement plate 3. A handle 36 is fixedly arranged on the front side of the placement plate 3. A plurality of placement grooves 31 for placing the test tube 2 are evenly opened on the placement plate 3. Arc-shaped clamping blocks 4 are arranged on the left and right sides corresponding to the test tube 2 in the placement grooves 31. Support blocks 5 are further arranged at the bottoms of the plurality of placement grooves 31. A support structure 6 is movably arranged in the placement plate 3 corresponding to the plurality of support blocks 5. The support structure 6 is fixedly connected to the support block 5, and the support structure 6 is drivingly connected to the arc-shaped clamping block 4;
[0022] The support structure 6 drives the support block 5 and the arc-shaped clamping block 4 simultaneously. During placement, the support block 5 is lifted, and at the same time, the two arc-shaped clamping blocks 4 are released, facilitating the placement of the test tube 2. After placement, the support block 5 is lowered, and at the same time, the two arc-shaped clamping blocks 4 are driven to move closer to each other to clamp the test tube 2. The overall structure is simple, which can not only stably clamp the test tube 2, but also is convenient to operate and has high practicality.
[0023] In another embodiment, please refer to Figures 1 to 3 , the support structure 6 includes a plurality of support rods 61, which are respectively vertically arranged on the lower side of the support block 5 and fixedly connected to the lower side of the support block 5. The plurality of support rods 61 are slidably connected to the placement plate 3. Corresponding to the bottoms of the plurality of support rods 61, the placement plate 3 is provided with movable cavities 32. Horizontally arranged in the movable cavities 32 is a movable plate 62, which is slidably connected to the movable cavities 32. The upper side of the movable plate 62 is fixedly connected to the bottoms of the plurality of support rods 61. Corresponding to the position of the movable plate 62 on the lower side of the placement plate 3, a threaded rod 63 is vertically arranged. The threaded rod 63 passes through the bottom of the placement plate 3 and extends into the movable plate 62, and is rotatably connected thereto. At the end of the threaded rod 63 located inside the movable plate 62, there is an annular limit block 64. Corresponding to the annular limit block 64 in the movable plate 62, there is an annular limit groove 65. The annular limit block 64 is rotatably connected to the annular limit groove 65. The threaded rod 63 is threadedly connected to the placement plate 3;
[0024] Since the threaded rod 63 is threadedly connected to the placement plate 3 and rotatably connected to the movable plate 62, when the threaded rod 63 is rotated, the threaded rod 63 drives the movable plate 62 to move up and down, so that the support rods 61 on the movable plate 62 and the support block 5 move up and down, raising or lowering the test tube 2, facilitating the taking and placing of the test tube 2.
[0025] In another embodiment, please refer to Figures 1 to 3 , on the opposite sides of the two arc-shaped clamping blocks 4, there are respectively abutting blocks 41. Corresponding to the two abutting blocks 41 in the placement plate 3, there are respectively first movable grooves 33. On the opposite sides of the two abutting blocks 41, there are respectively horizontally fixed springs 42. The other ends of the springs 42 abut against the side walls of the first movable grooves 33. Corresponding to the position of the support block 5 on the upper side of the placement plate 3, there is a second movable groove 34. The lower ends of the two abutting blocks 41 respectively abut against the left and right ends of the upper side of the support block 5. The abutting blocks 41 and the support block 5 are respectively provided with inclined surfaces 7 that slope outward from top to bottom;
[0026] Since the left and right ends of the upper side of the support block 5 are in contact with the two abutting blocks 41, and the contact part is provided with an inclined surface 7, when the support block 5 rises, due to the setting of the inclined surface 7, the support block 5 drives the two abutting blocks 41 outwards, so that the arc-shaped clamping block 4 connected thereto loosens the test tube 2, and cooperates with the rise of the support block 5, so as to facilitate the staff to take it. On the contrary, when the support block 5 descends, it cooperates with the reset of the spring 42 to squeeze the two arc-shaped clamping blocks 4 towards each other, so as to clamp the test tube 2. At the same time, an arc-shaped positioning groove 51 is opened on the upper side of the support block 5 corresponding to the bottom of the test tube 2, which is convenient for accurate positioning when the test tube 2 is placed and clamped.
