Detailed Description of the Invention
[0023] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the present utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the specific embodiments and corresponding drawings of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of the present utility model.
[0024] The technical solutions provided by each embodiment of the present utility model will be described in detail below in conjunction with the drawings.
[0025] An embodiment of the present utility model provides a multifunctional test tube rack, which includes a rack body base 1, a tube body placement rack 3 for placing the test tube rack, an adjustment mechanism 2 for adjusting the position of the tube body placement rack 3, and a blocking mechanism 4 for limiting the position of the tube body placement rack 3. The tube body placement rack 3 includes a placement mechanism 31 and a drying mechanism 32. A plurality of the placement mechanisms 31 are provided, and the plurality of placement mechanisms 31 are arranged at equal intervals around the adjustment mechanism 2. A plurality of the drying mechanisms 32 are provided, and the plurality of drying mechanisms 32 are respectively arranged on the corresponding placement mechanisms 31. The rack body base 1 is horizontally arranged, and the blocking mechanism 4 is arranged on the rack body base 1 and is in blocking contact with the corresponding placement mechanism 31. The adjustment mechanism 2 is rotatably connected to the center of the upper end of the base.
[0026] The fact that this device can adapt to test tubes of different sizes means that the test tube rack can be flexibly adjusted according to actual needs, and it can ensure the stability of the test tubes on the rack. At the same time, the test tubes can be placed in partitions so that different types of test tubes can be clearly classified, stored, and taken. Moreover, the test tube rack with a drying function can directly place the washed test tubes for drying without having to find another place for drying, saving time.
[0027] In a further preferred embodiment of the present utility model, the adjustment mechanism 2 includes an adjustment column 21 and an adjustment handle 22. The adjustment column 21 is rotatably arranged at the center of the upper end of the rack body base 1. The adjustment handle 22 is arranged at the upper end of the adjustment column 21. The adjustment handle 22 includes a plurality of identification blocks 23. The plurality of identification blocks 23 are all made of transparent materials. A plurality of identification card placement slots 24 are provided on the plurality of identification blocks 23. The plurality of identification card placement slots 24 and the corresponding placement mechanisms 31 are arranged in a vertically corresponding position.
[0028] When the device performs partition operations, it first classifies according to the types of test tubes and different test items required, names the items to make identification cards, and then places the made identification cards in the corresponding identification card placement slots 24. Through a number of identification blocks 23 made of transparent materials, the internal identification cards can be clearly viewed to understand the placement areas of the required test tube racks, thus realizing partition placement so that different types of test tubes can be clearly classified and stored, and provided for personnel to view;
[0029] Each partition can be marked by making an identification card named after the item, indicating information such as the use of the test tubes stored, the test items or the names of reagents. This not only facilitates the management of test tubes by laboratory personnel but also enables the rapid identification of the required test tubes in case of emergency. For example, in a medical testing laboratory, test tubes for different detection items are placed in partitions and marked, which helps medical staff quickly and accurately select the correct test tubes for sample collection and testing during busy work. Clear partitions can effectively reduce the risk of incorrect test results caused by mis-taking test tubes. In complex chemical experiments or medical tests, using the wrong test tube may introduce impurities or affect the reaction of reagents, and partition placement can avoid this situation to the greatest extent.
[0030] For teaching laboratories, the teacher can place test tubes corresponding to different reagents required for students' experiments in partitions, which is convenient for students to access and reduces the time wasted in searching for test tubes, making the experimental teaching more orderly.
[0031] In a further preferred embodiment of the present utility model, a number of the placement mechanisms 31 each include a placement base 311, a tube 312, a tube body holder 313, and a tube body cap 314. The placement base 311 is disposed on the adjustment column 21. The placement base 311 is L-shaped. A number of the tubes 312 are provided, and a number of the tubes 312 are arranged at equal intervals in sequence on the placement base 311. A number of the tube body holders 313 are provided, and a number of the tube body holders 313 are arranged at equal intervals in sequence on the placement base 311 and correspond to the positions of a number of the tubes 312. A number of the tube body holders 313 are each in a state of being slidably and rotationally connected to the placement base 311 in the up-and-down direction. A number of the tube body caps 314 are provided, and a number of the tube body caps 314 are respectively disposed on the corresponding tube body holders 313. The lower diameters of a number of the tube body caps 314 are smaller than the internal diameter of a traditional test tube rack, while the upper diameters are larger than the external diameter of a traditional test tube rack. The shapes of a number of the tubes 312 conform to the shapes of traditional test tubes;
[0032] When performing the placement operation on the required test tube rack, the corresponding test tube rack 313 is stretched upward through the tube body cap 314, and the test tube is placed into the corresponding test tube rack. Then, the tube body cap 314 is loosened and covered on the opening of the test tube to protect the specimen inside the test tube, thus realizing the placement operation of the test tube. The sizes of the test tubes are in a state where several of the test tube racks 313 are in a vertically sliding and rotationally connected state with the placement base 311, and the ability to accommodate test tubes of different sizes means that the test tube rack can be flexibly adjusted according to actual needs. Placing test tubes according to size can make various test tubes clearly visible, enabling personnel to quickly select the appropriate test tubes according to the experiment. At the same time, when storing test tubes, they can also be arranged more neatly and orderly, avoiding the chaotic stacking of test tubes of different sizes and facilitating the search and retrieval during the next use.
[0033] In a further preferred embodiment of the present utility model, liquid storage grooves 315 are provided on several of the placement bases 311. A plurality of through holes 316 are provided at the bottom inside several of the tubes 312, and the plurality of through holes 316 are in a communicating setting with the corresponding liquid storage grooves 315. Drying grooves 317 are provided at the side ends of several of the tubes 312. Several of the drying mechanisms 32 each include a liquid collection box 321 and drying rods 322. The liquid collection box 321 is arranged in a drawer type within the corresponding liquid storage groove 315. A plurality of drying rods 322 are provided. The plurality of drying rods 322 are respectively arranged at equal intervals at the side end of the corresponding placement base 311 and are all in a left-right sliding fit setting. One end of each of the plurality of drying rods 322 faces the corresponding drying groove 317.
[0034] Refer to Figure 5As shown, after the test tube is used and cleaned, there will be water stains remaining inside the test tube. At this time, the corresponding drying rod 322 can be pushed, so that the corresponding drying rod 322 is pushed from the corresponding drying groove 317 into the corresponding tube 312. At this time, there is no test tube placed inside the tube 312. After the position of the drying rod 322 is moved, the cleaned test tube is placed upside down in the tube 312. The body of the test tube will be limited by the tube 312, and the opening of the test tube will be located on the drying rod 322 and supported by the drying rod 322. The water stains inside the cleaned test tube will flow out due to gravity and flow into the tube 312, and then flow into the liquid storage tank 315 on the corresponding placement base 311 through the through hole 316 inside the tube 312, and finally be collected by the corresponding liquid collection box 321. In addition, the drying effect on the water stains can also be achieved through the drying groove 317. Therefore, the test tube rack with the drying function of this device can directly dry the test tube after cleaning without having to find another place to dry, saving time. Especially in a laboratory where test tubes are frequently used, this function can greatly speed up the progress of the experiment. For example, when conducting multiple groups of experiments continuously, the cleaned test tubes can be immediately placed on the test tube rack to dry and be prepared for the next use without having to wait for a dedicated drying device;
[0035] In the drying process of this device, the test tube can be naturally air-dried, avoiding secondary pollution that may be caused by wiping with tools such as rags. This can ensure that the test tube remains clean when used next time, reducing the impact on the experimental results due to residual moisture or impurities. At the same time, natural air-drying also helps to protect the surface of the test tube and extend its service life;
[0036] Compared with using a dedicated drying device, using the drying function of the test tube rack can save energy and reduce costs. In some laboratories or small enterprises with high requirements for cost control, this function has practical economic significance. In addition, the drying function does not require additional power or energy supply and is more environmentally friendly.
[0037] In a further preferred embodiment of the present utility model, the blocking mechanism 4 includes a spring piece 41, a blocking block 42 and a pull rod 43. A blocking groove 11 is provided on the rack base 1. The spring piece 41 is located in the blocking groove 11. The lower end of the blocking block 42 is connected to the side end of the spring piece 41 and the upper end is in contact with the side of the corresponding placement base 311. The pull rod 43 is arranged outside the blocking block 42;
[0038] The blocking block 42 can prevent the adjustment mechanism 2 from driving the corresponding tube rack 3 to rotate due to inertia. When the tube rack 3 needs to be rotated, only by pulling the pull rod 43 can the blocking block 42 be disengaged from the contact state beside the placement base 311. The rotatable design enables the experimenter to adjust the test tube rack to the most convenient angle according to their own operating habits and actual needs. For example, during complex experimental operations, the test tube rack can be rotated to a position convenient for observation and operation, improving the accuracy and convenience of the experiment. For experiments that require multi-person cooperation, the test tube rack can also be rotated so that each experimenter can easily access the test tubes.
[0039] The above are only embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. For those skilled in the art, various modifications and changes can be made to the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included within the scope of the claims of the present invention.
