Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of animal quarantine, and more specifically, it relates to a new type of animal quarantine sample collection box. Background Art

[0002] In the existing technology, in animal quarantine work, the safe collection and transportation of samples are key links to ensure the accuracy of test results. There are many deficiencies in the existing sample collection devices, which are difficult to meet the increasingly strict quarantine requirements. In the current technical solutions, the installation of sample containers often lacks regularity and systematicness, resulting in low efficiency when quarantine personnel handle a large number of samples, and it is easy to cause confusion or omission. In addition, the existing devices usually neglect the protection of the bottom of the sample containers, and it is easy to damage the bottom of the containers due to vibration or collision during transportation, increasing the risk of sample leakage and contamination.

[0003] During the long-distance transportation or sample transfer process in a complex environment, the deficiencies of the existing technology are more prominent. Due to the lack of effective fixing and protection mechanisms, the sample containers are prone to move, tilt or even turn over during transportation, which not only increases the risk of sample damage, but also may cause cross-contamination, seriously affecting the reliability of test results. Especially when dealing with fragile, volatile or biohazardous samples, these problems may lead to more serious consequences, such as sample failure, environmental pollution, and even endangering the safety of operators.

When it is necessary to fix the sample container, first place the container into the mounting tube 6, and then put the fixing sleeve 7 on the mounting tube 6. The top end of the mounting tube 6 pushes the top plate 12, and through the top plate 12, the push block 21 at the top end of multiple arc-shaped rods 10 is pushed. The arc-shaped rods 10 move inwards through the sliding holes 9, and the clamping blocks 11 at the bottom end are engaged with the card slots 8 on the outer wall of the mounting tube 6 to achieve preliminary fixation. The top plate 12 can move inside the fixing sleeve 7, and the top plate 12 is pushed by multiple top springs 23 to press the top end of the sample container, further pressing the sample container to ensure its stability. The compression spring 22 between the push block 21 at the top end of the arc-shaped rod 10 and the inner wall of the fixing sleeve 7 provides appropriate pressure, which can push the top end of the arc-shaped rod 10 to reset when unlocking and disassembling is required.

[0038] Please refer to Figures 3-5 As an implementation manner of the lock sleeve: A lock sleeve 13 is slidably arranged on the outer wall of the fixing sleeve 7. A lock block 14 is installed on the top surface of the lock sleeve 13. There are multiple groups of lock blocks 14.

[0039] More specifically, when the sample container is fixed, the operator slides the lock sleeve 13 upwards, and multiple lock blocks 14 on the top surface of the lock sleeve 13 are engaged with the lock slots 15 on the arc-shaped rods 10 to form additional locking. This design significantly improves the reliability of fixation, preventing the sample container from accidentally loosening or falling off during transportation. The convex plate 24 on the outer wall of the fixing sleeve 7 and the push spring 25 between the lock sleeve 13 ensure the stability of the locked state.

[0040] In summary, when the overall device is in use or operation: during use, the mounting plate 2 is fixed inside the bottom box 1, providing a stable mounting platform. The bottom pad 3 is arranged on the inner bottom surface of the bottom box 1, playing a role in buffering and protecting the sample. Multiple groups of mounting holes 5 are provided on the mounting plate 2, and these holes are used to install the fixing mechanism, providing fixing points for sample containers of different sizes and types. Open the top cover 4, insert the mounting tube 6 into the mounting hole 5, and the fixing sleeve 7 is arranged at the top of the mounting tube 6. When it is necessary to fix the sample container, first place the container into the mounting tube 6, and then put the fixing sleeve 7 on the mounting tube 6. The top of the mounting tube 6 pushes the top plate 12, and through the top plate 12, the push block 21 at the top of multiple arc-shaped rods 10 is pushed. The arc-shaped rods 10 move inward through the sliding holes 9, and the clamping blocks 11 at the bottom are engaged with the card slots 8 on the outer wall of the mounting tube 6 to achieve preliminary fixation. The top plate 12 can move within the fixing sleeve 7, and the top plate 12 is pushed by multiple top springs 23 to press the top of the sample container, further pressing the sample container to ensure its stability.
