Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to a circular experimental sample storage box Background Art
[0002] A novel circular experimental sample storage box, with its unique form and application, has become an indispensable part of the laboratory. Taking infrared spectroscopy films as an example, it is an important tool for studying molecular structures. This spectroscopic analysis technique is widely used in the identification and analysis of organic compounds, polymers, inorganic compounds, and composite materials. However, there are certain limitations in the traditional methods for preparing infrared spectroscopy samples. Solid samples usually need to be pressed into thin slices through a tablet press mold for easy detection by an infrared spectrometer. However, the thickness of these tablets is usually below 0.5 mm, very fragile, and prone to damage during removal, transfer, or storage. Once damaged, it will not only lead to inaccurate experimental data but also may waste precious sample materials. To solve this problem, the utility model proposes an innovative solution - a circular experimental sample storage box. The design of this storage box aims to provide a safe and stable storage environment for circular samples, reducing the risk of damage during transfer and storage.
[0003] First of all, the size design of the storage box should closely match the size of the sample to ensure that each sample can obtain appropriate space. This not only avoids mutual extrusion and friction between samples but also effectively prevents damage to the samples when they move inside the storage box.
[0004] In terms of material selection, the storage box should be made of materials with high impact resistance and chemical corrosion resistance, such as ABS plastic or polycarbonate. These materials can not only withstand accidental impacts but also resist common chemical reagents in the laboratory, protecting the samples from contamination.
[0005] The sealing performance is another key element in the design of the storage box. The base (1), the lid (6), and the support pillar (4) can all be tightly connected to ensure the airtightness of the whole device, preventing the samples from being exposed to the air and reducing the effects of oxidation and moisture, thus maintaining the stability of the samples.
[0006] In addition, adding desiccants to the built-in desiccant box (5) can further maintain the stability of the storage environment and ensure that the samples are not affected by humidity changes. Storing desiccants in the desiccant box (5) can absorb moisture in the surrounding environment, thereby reducing the relative humidity of the environment. When substances are exposed to high-humidity environments, they may absorb moisture, leading to changes in their chemical or physical properties. In terms of chemical stability, desiccants can prevent certain chemical substances in the samples from reacting due to moisture absorption. For example, some organic compounds may undergo hydrolysis or polymerization reactions under humid conditions, affecting their purity and potency. By absorbing the moisture required for these reactions, desiccants help maintain the chemical stability of substances. Microbial growth generally requires moisture. By reducing the environmental humidity, desiccants can inhibit the growth of microorganisms. This is particularly important for storage because microbial contamination may cause the samples to deteriorate or produce harmful substances. Desiccants can also prevent corrosion, especially for samples that are vulnerable to corrosion. In a high-humidity environment, a water film may form on the surface of the samples, accelerating the corrosion process. By absorbing moisture, desiccants reduce the formation of the water film, thereby slowing down corrosion. Some samples may expand or deform in a humid environment, affecting their performance. Desiccants help maintain the original physical state of substances. Desiccants can also extend the shelf life of stored substances. Some desiccants have the property of color change, which can serve as an intuitive indicator of humidity changes. For example, blue silica gel desiccants turn pink after absorbing moisture. This color change can help monitor the humidity state of the storage environment and remind users to replace the desiccants. Desiccants can also prevent oxidation reactions. In some cases, the presence of moisture may promote oxidation reactions, resulting in the degradation of the sample substances. By absorbing moisture, desiccants help reduce the occurrence of oxidation reactions. Thus, protecting the internal disc-shaped experimental samples. In summary, in this utility model, the role of the built-in desiccant box is multifaceted. The desiccants in it provide a dry and stable environment for the samples by absorbing moisture, thereby protecting the substances from the damage of moisture and extending their storage life. The correct selection and use of desiccants are crucial for ensuring the quality and safety of the disc-shaped experimental samples.
[0007] Operational convenience is also an important factor to consider in the design of the storage box. The lid design should be easy to operate with one hand, facilitating quick access to the samples. Adding a transparent small sliding window allows the sample status to be viewed without opening the lid, further improving the operational convenience. Shockproof and buffer designs are the key to ensuring that the samples are not damaged during transportation and operation.
[0008] In addition, cleaning and maintenance are also aspects that cannot be ignored in the design of the storage box. The lining material is easy to disassemble and clean, maintaining the hygiene of the storage environment. The surface of the box body is easy to clean and corrosion-resistant, reducing the maintenance cost. The modular design allows modules to be added or reduced as needed to accommodate different numbers of samples.
[0009] Finally, safety and compliance are the foundation of the storage box design. Ensure that the storage box design complies with laboratory safety standards and industry norms, providing a safe operating environment for researchers. The disc-shaped experimental sample storage box can provide a comprehensive, efficient, and safe sample management solution, meeting the high standards of modern laboratory sample management requirements. Summary of the Invention
[0010] To achieve the purpose of protecting the newly made disc-shaped experimental samples similar to infrared spectroscopy films from being damaged after production and providing a more convenient storage environment for them, the technical solution adopted by the present utility model is as follows:
[0011] 1. A new type of disc-shaped experimental sample storage box for experiments, comprising a base (1), a groove (2), small round grooves (3), struts (4), a desiccant box (5), a box cover (6), a long strip groove (7), a card slot (8), and a small sliding piece (9). The base (1) is a cylindrical structure with a plurality of small round grooves (3) evenly distributed. There is a groove (2) on the front of the lower cylinder for connecting the box cover (6) and the base (1) and fixing them to prevent slipping. There are many small round grooves (3) on the upper cylinder. The small round grooves (3) are used to store disc-shaped experimental samples of the same size as the small round grooves (3), preventing the disc-shaped experimental samples from being damaged due to collision. The struts (4) fit the circular vacancy in the middle of the box cover (6), making the box cover (6) and the base (1) fit tightly to prevent the samples stored in the small round grooves (3) from being damaged due to mutual collision between the box cover (6) and the base (1). The desiccant box (5) can be pulled out upward and pushed back downward. It stores desiccants inside to prevent the disc-shaped experimental samples from getting damp, which can further maintain the stability of the storage environment and ensure that the samples are not affected by humidity changes. The desiccants stored in the desiccant box (5) can absorb the moisture in the surrounding environment, thereby reducing the relative humidity of the environment and making the storage space of the samples drier. The long strip groove (7) has a card slot (8) for fixing the small sliding piece (9) in the long strip groove (7) through a track, and the position of the long strip groove (7) can be controlled by rotating the box cover (6). The small sliding piece (9) can slide along the card slot (8), which is convenient for taking disc-shaped experimental samples from the small round grooves (3) for experimental operations during experiments.
