The terms used in the specification of the present utility model are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not used to limit the present utility model.

[0030] The following will be combined with Figures 1 to 2 , and the automatic cover closing device of the centrifuge provided by the embodiments of the present application will be described in detail through specific embodiments.

[0031] Please refer to Figures 1 to 2 , Figure 1 It is a structural schematic view of the automatic cover closing device of the centrifuge provided by one embodiment of the present utility model; Figure 2It is an exploded schematic diagram of the automatic cover closing device of a centrifuge provided by one embodiment of the present utility model. The automatic cover closing device 100 of the centrifuge provided by one embodiment of the present utility model includes a cover body 10, a driving wheel 20, and a driving assembly 30. The cover body 10 is used to cover the centrifuge, and a lock core 11 is provided in the middle of the cover body 10; the driving wheel 20 is arranged on the cover body 10; the driving assembly 30 is connected to the driving wheel 20; wherein, the driving assembly 30 can drive the driving wheel 20 to rotate in the horizontal direction, and then the driving wheel 20 drives the cover body 10 to retract or extend.

[0032] When it is necessary to cover the centrifuge cover body 10, the driving assembly 30 drives the driving wheel 20 to rotate in the horizontal direction. Since the driving wheel 20 is connected to the cover body 10, the rotation of the driving wheel 20 will drive the cover body 10 to retract until the cover body 10 completely covers the centrifuge. During the retraction of the cover body 10, the lock core 11 will automatically insert into the lock hole on the centrifuge to achieve the locking of the cover body 10. When it is necessary to open the centrifuge cover body 10, the driving assembly 30 drives the driving wheel 20 to rotate in the reverse horizontal direction. Since the driving wheel 20 is connected to the cover body 10, the rotation of the driving wheel 20 will drive the cover body 10 to extend until the cover body 10 completely leaves the centrifuge. During the extension of the cover body 10, the lock core 11 will automatically pull out from the lock hole on the centrifuge to achieve the unlocking of the cover body 10. Through such a setting, the automatic opening and closing of the centrifuge cover body 10 can be realized, the automation degree of the centrifuge can be improved, manual operation can be reduced, and the work efficiency can be improved. At the same time, the automatic cover closing device can also improve the safety of the centrifuge and prevent the operator from accidentally touching the cover body 10 when the centrifuge is running, resulting in injury.

[0033] In some embodiments, a driving rod 12 is provided on the cover body 10, and a strip-shaped hole 21 is provided on the driving wheel 20, and the driving rod 12 passes through the strip-shaped hole 21.

[0034] When the driving assembly 30 drives the driving wheel 20 to rotate in the horizontal direction, the strip-shaped hole 21 on the driving wheel 20 will move along the direction of the driving rod 12. Since the driving rod 12 is fixed on the cover body 10, the rotation of the driving wheel 20 will drive the cover body 10 to retract or extend. At the same time, the setting of the strip-shaped hole 21 can also limit the rotation angle of the driving wheel 20, making the retraction and extension of the cover body 10 more accurate. Through such a setting, the rotation of the driving wheel 20 can be made more stable, and at the same time, the retraction and extension of the cover body 10 can also be made more stable.

[0035] In some embodiments, a plurality of strip-shaped holes 21 are provided, and the plurality of strip-shaped holes 21 are circumferentially distributed on the driving wheel 20; the number of driving rods 12 is equal to the number of strip-shaped holes 21, and the driving rods 12 are correspondingly arranged with the strip-shaped holes 21 corresponding thereto. By providing a plurality of strip-shaped holes 21 on the cover body 10 and circumferentially distributing the plurality of strip-shaped holes 21 on the driving wheel 20, the rotation of the driving wheel 20 will be more stable, so that the retraction and extension of the cover body 10 can be more stable.

[0036] In some embodiments, a plurality of limiting holes 22 are further formed on the driving wheel 20, and the plurality of limiting holes 22 are circumferentially distributed on the driving wheel 20; the driving wheel 20 includes a limiting rod 13, and the limiting rod 13 is inserted through the limiting holes 22.

[0037] When the driving wheel 20 rotates, the limiting holes 22 will synchronously rotate with the driving wheel 20, and when the driving wheel 20 rotates to a certain angle in the horizontal direction, the hole wall of the limiting hole 22 abuts against the rod wall of the limiting rod 13, thereby restricting the driving wheel 20 from continuing to rotate. Through such a setting, the continuous rotation of the driving wheel 20 can be restricted, so that the cover body 10 is locked or fully opened.

[0038] In some embodiments, an abutting portion 131 is provided at the end of the limiting rod 13, and the abutting portion 131 abuts against the surface of the limiting wheel. The abutting portion 131 abuts against the surface of the driving wheel 20, and can connect the driving wheel 20 and the cover body 10 to prevent the driving wheel 20 from falling off.

[0039] In some embodiments, the driving assembly 30 includes a driving member 31 and a connecting member 32; one end of the connecting member 32 is connected to the driving member 31, and the other end is connected to the driving wheel 20.

[0040] The driving member 31 is usually a motor, a cylinder or a hydraulic cylinder, etc., and it can generate a driving force. One end of the connecting member 32 is connected to the driving member 31, and the other end is connected to the driving wheel 20. The driving force is transmitted to the driving wheel 20 through the connecting member 32.

[0041] When the driving member 31 works, it drives the connecting member 32 to move, and the connecting member 32 then drives the driving wheel 20 to rotate. The rotation of the driving wheel 20 can cause the cover body 10 to retract or extend, so as to realize the automatic cover closing operation of the centrifuge. Through such a setting, the power transmission between the driving member 31 and the driving wheel 20 can be realized, and the position and angle of the driving wheel 20 can be adjusted as required.

[0042] In some embodiments, the driving member 31 includes a driving lead screw 311 and a driving motor 312; one end of the driving lead screw 311 is connected to the driving motor 312, and the other end is connected to the connecting member 32.

[0043] The driving motor 312 converts rotational motion into linear motion through the driving lead screw 311. The pitch of the driving lead screw 311 determines the moving distance of the connecting member 32, thereby enabling precise control of the stroke of the driving wheel 20. When the driving motor 312 rotates, the driving lead screw 311 rotates accordingly, and the connecting member 32 moves axially under the action of the driving lead screw 311. The movement of the connecting member 32 drives the driving wheel 20 to perform corresponding movements, realizing the opening and closing of the cover body 10. By using the combination of the driving lead screw 311 and the driving motor 312, precise position control and speed adjustment can be achieved, which is applicable to the automatic cover-closing device 100 of a centrifuge with high requirements for cover-closing accuracy and stability.

[0044] In some embodiments, the shape of the limiting hole 22 is arc-shaped, and the outer arc of the limiting hole 22 is the same as the outer arc of the driving wheel 20.

[0045] By setting the shape of the limiting hole 22 to be arc-shaped and the outer arc of the limiting hole 22 to be the same as the outer arc of the driving wheel 20, the driving wheel 20 can be limited while not affecting its rotation.

[0046] It should be particularly noted that the automatic cover-closing device 100 of the centrifuge provided in the embodiments of the present invention only shows the parts related to the technical problems to be solved in the embodiments of the present invention. It can be understood that the automatic cover-closing device 100 provided in the embodiments of the present invention further includes other structures for realizing the functions of the automatic cover-closing device 100 of the centrifuge, which will not be elaborated one by one here.

[0047] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit them; under the idea of the present invention, the technical features in the above embodiments or different embodiments can also be combined, and the steps can be implemented in any order, and there are many other variations in different aspects of the present invention as described above.
