DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS
[0017] In order to make the implementation means, creative features, achieved purposes and effects of the present utility model easy to understand, the present utility model will be further described below with reference to specific drawings. In the description of the present utility model, it should be noted that unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "installation", "connection", and "connection" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection or a mechanical connection, and it can also be an electrical connection; it can be directly connected, or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, and the internal communication of two components is possible.
[0018] Embodiment 1
[0019] As Figures 1 - 3A desktop oscillator shown includes a housing 1. An oscillation device 2 is installed at the bottom of the housing 1. The oscillation device 2 can adopt a multi-point vortex oscillator with an amplitude of 3 mm, which is suitable for Eppendorf tubes, small reagent bottles and similar containers with different diameters. The 3 mm amplitude and the speed control of 150 to 2000 rpm ensure the mixing effect and can handle samples containing solids. The top of the oscillation device 2 is connected to an oscillation column 7. An installation groove 14 is opened at the top of the housing 1. The area of the installation groove 14 is larger than the cross-sectional area of the oscillation column 7. The oscillation column 7 is installed in the installation groove 14. The installation groove 14 provides space for the oscillation of the oscillation column 7. The oscillation device 2 is installed at the bottom of the installation groove 14. A clamping mechanism for clamping and fixing test tubes is provided on the oscillation column 7. A control panel 3 is installed at the top of the housing 1. A knob 4, a counter 5 and a control button 6 are installed on the control panel 3. The power of the oscillator can be adjusted and various functions of the oscillator can be controlled through the knob 4 and the control button 6. The timer 5 can automatically terminate the vibration function. After the task is completed, a prompt sound will be emitted, which is convenient for controlling the oscillation time and has a high degree of automation.
[0020] In this embodiment, the clamping mechanism includes a lower clamping member 8 and an upper clamping member 9. Both the lower clamping member 8 and the upper clamping member 9 are detachably connected to the outer wall of the oscillation column 7. The setting of the separated lower clamping member 8 and upper clamping member 9 enables the clamping mechanism to be replaced without replacing the whole when it is damaged during use. The lower clamping member 8 or the upper clamping member 9 can be selected for replacement according to the damaged position, which can effectively reduce the use cost of the clamping mechanism. And the clamping mechanism is detachable, which is convenient for replacing the clamping mechanism and can replace clamping mechanisms of different sizes according to the requirements of different test tube sizes, improving the flexibility of the oscillator and enabling the oscillator to be applicable to test tubes of different sizes and capacities. Four ends of the inner sides of the lower clamping member 8 and the upper clamping member 9 are respectively connected with sliding columns 15. Four ends of the outer wall of the oscillation column 7 are respectively provided with sliding grooves 13. The sliding grooves 13 correspond to the sliding columns 15 one by one. Inserting the lower clamping member 8 and the upper clamping member 9 corresponding to the sliding grooves 13 can connect the lower clamping member 8 and the upper clamping member 9 with the oscillation column 7, and then the lower clamping member 8 and the upper clamping member 9 can oscillate along with the oscillation column 7. The lower clamping member 8 is installed below the upper clamping member 9. A plurality of clamping grooves 10 are opened on both the lower clamping member 8 and the upper clamping member 9. The clamping grooves 10 are U-shaped grooves with tapered ends. The tapered ends of the clamping grooves 10 are arranged close to the oscillation column 7. The inner walls of the clamping grooves 10 are made of elastic materials. Inserting the test tube into the U-shaped groove, the width of the clamping groove 10 is slightly smaller than the width of the test tube. After the test tube enters the U-shaped groove, it will be tightly clamped in the clamping groove 10 due to the rebound of the inner wall of the elastic material. There are multiple clamping grooves 10 that can clamp and oscillate multiple test tubes at the same time, greatly improving the oscillation efficiency of the test tubes and facilitating the oscillation of a large number of test tubes.
[0021] Embodiment 2
[0022] On the basis of Embodiment 1, the further improvement lies in that, as Figures 3 - 4A desktop oscillator shown, the limiting component includes a limiting cover 11 and a limiting column 12. Four ends of the top of the upper clamping piece 9 are all connected with the limiting column 12. Limiting holes 16 are opened at four ends of the limiting cover 11. The limiting columns 12 and the limiting holes 16 correspond to each other one by one. The cross-sectional area of the limiting cover 11 is larger than that of the oscillation column 7. The top end of the limiting column 12 is conical. The top of the limiting column 12 is made of an elastic material. The area of the widest part of the top end of the limiting column 12 is larger than the area of the limiting hole 16. Insert the limiting column 12 into the limiting hole 16 on the limiting cover 11. The end of the limiting column 12 made of an elastic material contracts due to the extrusion of the inner wall of the limiting hole 16 during insertion, so that it can pass through the limiting hole 16. When the end of the limiting column 12 passes through the limiting hole 16, the end of the limiting column 12 rebounds, and the end with a larger area can firmly hold the limiting column 12 in the limiting hole 16, thus fixing the position of the clamping mechanism and maintaining the stability of the clamping mechanism during oscillation.
[0023] The technological process and working principle of the present utility model are as follows: When oscillating a test tube, insert the limiting column 12 into the limiting hole 16 on the limiting cover 11. The end of the limiting column 12 made of an elastic material contracts due to the extrusion of the inner wall of the limiting hole 16 during insertion, so that it can pass through the limiting hole 16. When the end of the limiting column 12 passes through the limiting hole 16, the end of the limiting column 12 rebounds, and the end with a larger area can firmly hold the limiting column 12 in the limiting hole 16, thus fixing the position of the clamping mechanism and maintaining the stability of the clamping mechanism during oscillation. Then insert the test tube into the clamping groove 10 correspondingly. The width of the clamping groove 10 is slightly smaller than the width of the test tube. After the test tube enters the U-shaped groove, it will be tightly clamped in the clamping groove 10 due to the rebound of the inner wall of the elastic material. Then start the oscillation device 2 to make the oscillation column 7 oscillate, thereby driving the clamping mechanism to oscillate, and the oscillation of the test tube can be realized. The clamping mechanism is detachable, which is convenient for replacing the clamping mechanism, and different-sized clamping mechanisms can be replaced according to the requirements of different test tube sizes, which can improve the flexibility of the oscillator, so that the oscillator can be applicable to test tubes of different sizes and capacities. There are multiple clamping grooves 10 that can clamp and oscillate multiple test tubes at the same time, greatly improving the efficiency of test tube oscillation and facilitating the oscillation of a large number of test tubes.
[0024] Finally, it should be noted that the above are only the preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not used to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, for those skilled in the art, they can still modify the technical solutions recorded in the foregoing embodiments, or perform equivalent replacements for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present utility model shall be included in the protection scope of the present utility model.
