Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of cell culture, in particular to a triangular cell culture bottle cap. Background Art

[0002] A culture bottle is a consumable commonly used in cell biology experiments. A culture bottle consists of a bottle body and a bottle cap. The bottle body of the culture bottle is generally made of a transparent material, and the bottle cap is made of a non-transparent material. The culture bottle is generally placed in a cell culture incubator. The plastic culture bottle is convenient for directly observing the cell state and is convenient for controlling temperature, carbon dioxide, and humidity in the incubator.

[0003] In the existing cell culture, the bottle caps of plastic triangular cell culture bottles are generally integral, the bottle cap and the bottle body are separated, and the bottle cap and the bottle body are usually connected by threads. When performing operations on multiple culture bottles simultaneously, it is necessary to remove the bottle caps of the culture bottles before proceeding with the operations. In this way, the removed bottle caps of different culture bottles are easily confused. It is difficult to unscrew the bottle cap of the culture bottle with one hand during the process of unscrewing, and it needs to be rotated multiple times. If the bottle cap is rotated excessively or held unsteadily, the bottle cap may slip off.

[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need to provide a triangular cell culture bottle cap, which, compared with the prior art, can avoid the confusion of bottle caps, the difficulty of unscrewing the bottle caps, and the detachment of the bottle caps caused by excessive rotation during the unscrewing process.

[0022] The technical solution of the present utility model will be clearly described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are not all 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. It should be noted that the orientation or positional relationship indicated by the terms "center", "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", etc. is based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. It is only for the convenience of describing the present utility model and simplifying the description, and does not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation to the present utility model.

[0023] As Figure 1 shown, the present utility model provides a triangular cell culture bottle cap, which includes a bottle cap main body 1, an upper cover 2, a connecting member 3 and a clamping member. The bottle cap main body 1 is a hollow structure with openings at both the upper and lower ends. The upper end of the bottle cap main body 1 is hinged to the upper cover 2. The upper cover 2 covers the upper opening of the bottle cap main body 1 and is coaxially arranged when the upper cover 2 is buckled with the bottle cap main body 1. When the upper cover 2 is buckled with the bottle cap main body 1, the inner walls of the connecting member 3 are respectively attached to the outer wall of the upper cover 2 and the outer wall of the bottle cap main body 1, ensuring the stable connection between the upper cover 2 and the bottle cap main body 1. Figure 1 In

[0024] , there is a gap between the connecting member 3 and the upper cover 2 and the bottle cap main body 1 for the convenience of showing the connecting member 3. The outer diameter of the upper cover 2 is the same as that of the bottle cap main body 1. One end of the connecting member 3 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the bottle cap main body 1, and the other end of the connecting member 3 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the upper cover 2. The bottle cap main body 1 is hinged to the upper cover 2 through the connecting member 3. The connecting member 3 is made of soft plastic material. The bottle cap main body 1 and the upper cover 2 are clamped by a clamping member, and the clamping member is arranged opposite to the connecting member 3.

[0025] As Figure 2As shown in the figure, a sealing ring 6 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the upper cover 2. The sealing ring 6 is coaxially arranged with the upper cover 2. The sealing ring 6 is made of rubber and has elasticity. When buckling, the sealing ring 6 is in close contact with the bottle mouth of the culture bottle for sealing. The sealing ring 6 has a certain thickness. When the sealing ring 6 contacts the bottle mouth of the culture bottle, the bottle cap body 1 and the upper cover 2 will not be completely closed. It is necessary to press down the upper cover 2 to squeeze the sealing ring 6 so that the upper cover 2 and the bottle cap body 1 are pressed together. At the same time of pressing, the first clamping block 41 and the second clamping block 51 will be clamped to complete the buckling of the upper cover 2 and the bottle cap body 1.

[0026] A ventilation part 7 is provided at the center of the upper cover 2. The ventilation part 7 is a hydrophobic filter membrane, and the pore diameter of the hydrophobic filter membrane is 0.2 microns.

[0027] When performing simultaneous operations on multiple culture bottles, using the triangular cell culture bottle cap provided by the present utility model, one end of the bottle cap body 1 and the upper cover 2 is hinged and the other end is buckled through a clamping member. Just open the upper cover 2 to operate the cultured cells inside the bottle body, without separating the bottle cap from the bottle body, which can avoid the confusion of the bottle caps of different culture bottles, avoid the difficulty of unscrewing the bottle cap with one hand, and also avoid the slippage caused by excessive rotation of the bottle cap. It can realize the convenient and time-saving opening and closing of the bottle body and the bottle cap, facilitating experimental operations; a sealing ring 6 is also provided on the inner wall of the upper cover 2. The sealing ring 6 fits with the bottle mouth of the bottle body, ensuring aseptic gas exchange and reducing the probability of contamination of the cells in the culture bottle.
