Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of medical centrifuges, and particularly relates to a centrifuge tube rack. Background Art
[0002] In medical examinations, centrifuges are often used as instruments for separating serum, plasma, precipitating proteins, or performing urine sediment examinations. By using a centrifuge, the suspended particles in a mixed solution can be quickly precipitated to separate various substances with different specific gravities. In related technologies, the centrifugation method often uses a centrifuge as a basic experimental instrument. An angle rotor that can rotate at a high speed is provided inside the centrifuge. A plurality of cylindrical placement grooves with axial directions facing the axis line of the angle rotor are provided inside the angle rotor. The placement grooves are circumferentially and arrayedly distributed inside the angle rotor. A replaceable test tube placement rack for placing test tubes is provided inside the placement grooves.
[0003] In the prior art, the patent number CN221208163U discloses a test tube fixing rack for a centrifuge, which relates to the technical field of medical centrifuges. The test tube fixing rack includes a fixing cylinder with one end open and the other end closed. A first annular inflation groove is opened at a position close to the opening inside the fixing cylinder, and a second annular inflation groove is opened at a position close to the bottom inside the fixing cylinder. Both the first annular inflation groove and the second annular inflation groove are arranged along the circumferential direction of the fixing cylinder. A diversion cavity communicating the first annular inflation groove and the second annular inflation groove is opened inside the fixing cylinder. A first elastic sealing sheet for sealing the opening is circumferentially arranged on the first annular inflation groove, and a second elastic sealing sheet for sealing the opening is circumferentially arranged on the second annular inflation groove. An air injection nozzle communicating with the first annular inflation groove is arranged on the opening side of the fixing cylinder. The utility model can be suitable for the stable centrifugation of test tubes with different tube diameters.
[0004] However, the patents in the prior art have the following several disadvantages:
[0005] (1) This kind of test tube fixing rack for a centrifuge does not have a component that can adjust the length. Since different lengths of test tubes will be clamped during centrifugation operations, and the height of the test tube fixing rack for a centrifuge cannot be adjusted, the clamping mechanism cannot evenly clamp and fix the test tubes. During centrifugation operations, the test tubes are prone to uneven stress and thus damaged. Summary of the Utility Model

When the following description refers to the drawings, unless otherwise indicated, the same numbers in different drawings represent the same or similar elements. The implementation manners described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all implementation manners consistent with the present disclosure. On the contrary, they are only examples of devices consistent with some aspects of the present disclosure as detailed in the appended claims.
[0024] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0025] Example 1:
[0026] As Figures 1 to 8 shown, a centrifuge tube rack includes: a fixed bottom plate 1, on which there are two positioning holes 2 for fixedly connecting with a centrifuge; a support frame 3 fixedly connected to the top of the fixed bottom plate 1; and a test tube base 4 fixedly connected to one side of the support frame 3; a height positioning component 5 disposed inside the support frame 3; and a clamping ring component 6 disposed on the same side as the support frame 3 and the connector 501.
[0027] The height positioning component 5 includes: a connector 501, a connecting rod 502, a limiting block 503, a positioning block 504, and a spring piece 505.
[0028] The connector 501 is disposed above the support frame 3. There is a limiting groove 506 inside the top of the support frame 3. The connecting rod 502 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the connector 501. The connecting rod 502 is slidably connected to the notch at the top of the limiting groove 506. The limiting block 503 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the connecting rod 502. The limiting block 503 is slidably connected to the limiting groove 506. There are several positioning holes 507 on one side of the limiting groove 506. There is a limiting hole 508 on one side of the limiting block 503. The positioning block 504 is slidably connected inside the limiting hole 508. The positioning block 504 can be inserted into the inside of the positioning hole 507. The spring piece 505 is disposed inside the limiting hole 508. The spring piece 505 is used to support the positioning block 504.
[0029] Press the positioning block 504 to take it out of the positioning hole 507 and retract it into the limiting hole 508. At this time, pulling the connector 501 can adjust the overall height, so that a centrifuge tube rack can clamp and fix test tubes of different lengths, and the applicable range is wider.
[0030] The clamping ring component 6 includes: a fixed ring 601, a limiting shaft 602, a clamping ring 603, a fixed shaft 604, a spring 605, an adjusting ring 606, and a push button 607.
[0031] The fixed ring 601 is fixedly connected to the same side of the support frame 3 and the connector 501. A first chute 608 is provided inside the fixed ring 601. The limit shaft 602 is fixedly connected to the end of the first chute 608. The clamping ring 603 is slidably connected to the inside of the first chute 608. A fixedly connected rubber anti-slip pad is provided on the side of the clamping ring 603 that is close to the test tube when clamping. A sliding hole 609 is provided at one end of the clamping ring 603. The sliding hole 609 is slidably connected to the limit shaft 602. The fixed shaft 604 is fixedly connected to the top and bottom of the clamping ring 603. Second chutes 610 are provided at the top and bottom of the first chute 608. The spring 605 is arranged outside the limit shaft 602. The spring 605 is equipped with a damper by itself. The two ends of the spring 605 are fixedly connected to the clamping ring 603 and the first chute 608 respectively. Rotation grooves 611 are provided at the top and bottom inside the fixed ring 601. The adjustment ring 606 is rotatably connected to the inside of the rotation grooves 611. A third chute 612 is provided on the adjustment ring 606. The third chute 612 is slidably connected to the fixed shaft 604. Push buttons 607 are fixedly connected to both sides of the adjustment ring 606.
[0032] Hold the push button 607 and rotate it to make the adjustment ring 606 rotate, driving the third chute 612 to operate. The third chute 612 pushes the fixed shaft 604 to slide in the second chute 610, causing the clamping ring 603 to squeeze the spring 605 and contract into the first chute 608. At this time, the clamping ring assembly 6 opens. Pass the test tube through the fixed ring 601 so that the bottom of the test tube is placed in the test tube base 4. Release the push button 607, and the spring 605 rebounds, causing the clamping ring 603 to clamp the test tube, completing the fixation of the test tube, which is convenient for subsequent centrifugation operations. Since the spring 605 is equipped with a damper by itself, the spring 605 cooperates with the damper to slow down the shaking of the clamping ring 603 during centrifugation operations and maintain stable clamping.
[0033] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, for those of ordinary skill in the art, it can be understood that various changes, modifications, substitutions, and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principle and spirit of the present invention.
