Figure 1 It is a schematic diagram of the biological sample storage device 10 in a first state (the cryopreservation rack 112 is not extracted) according to some embodiments of the present application. Figure 2 It is a schematic diagram of the biological sample storage device 10 in a second state (the cryopreservation rack 112 is extracted) according to some embodiments of the present application.

[0022] The biological sample storage device 10 includes a cavity 100, a support column 200, a connecting member 300, and a guiding member 400. The cavity 100 defines a receiving cavity 110 with a top opening 111. A cryopreservation rack 112 is disposed in the receiving cavity 110, and the cryopreservation rack 112 is used for placing biological samples. The support column 200 is disposed outside the receiving cavity 110. The support column 200 extends in the vertical direction, and the lower end of the support column 200 is connected to the cavity 100. The connecting member 300 is connected to the upper end of the support column 200, and the connecting member 300 extends horizontally. The guiding member 400 extends in the horizontal direction. The guiding member 400 is mounted on the connecting member 300. The guiding member 400 is provided with a lifting rack assembly 500. The lifting rack assembly 500 is slidably disposed on the guiding member 400 horizontally, and the lifting rack assembly 500 is used for extracting the cryopreservation rack 112 through the top opening 111.

Correspondingly, the biological sample storage device 10 may be a refrigerator, a freezer, a cold storage, and a storage device including a liquid nitrogen tank, etc. The biological sample storage device 10 may have a refrigeration system, and the refrigeration system is used to provide cold energy to the receiving cavity 110. The cryopreservation rack 112 may place biological samples through a cryopreservation box (a cryopreservation tube or a cryopreservation bag is placed in the cryopreservation box, and a biological sample is disposed in the cryopreservation tube or the cryopreservation bag), so as to improve the preservation effect of the biological samples. The support column 200 may be fixed to the top of the cavity 100, and the connecting member 300 may be rotatably connected to the upper end of the support column 200.

[0024] The provision of the lifting rack assembly 500 of the biological sample storage device 10 provided in this embodiment can improve the automation level of the biological sample storage device 10, and the guiding member 400 is not directly connected to the support column 200, thus facilitating the disassembly of the guiding member 400 and facilitating the replacement and maintenance of the guiding member 400 and the lifting rack assembly 500 (the support column 200 will prevent the disassembly of the guiding member 400 and is not convenient for disassembling the guiding member 400 from below the guiding member 400).

[0025] In some embodiments, a first mounting plate 600 is rotatably connected to the upper end of the support column 200, and the connecting member 300 is fixed to the upper end of the first mounting plate 600. The connecting member 300 is connected to the upper end of the support column 200 through the first mounting plate 600.

[0026] For example, a rotating shaft is provided at the lower end of the first mounting plate 600, a slotted opening is provided at the upper end of the support column 200, and the rotating shaft is arranged in the slotted opening, so as to realize the rotational connection between the support column 200 and the first mounting plate 600. The connecting member 300 can be fixedly connected to the first mounting plate 600 by means of a threaded connection. The arrangement of the first mounting plate 600 improves the convenience of installation.

[0027] In some embodiments, the connecting member 300 includes a connecting column, one end of the connecting column is connected to the upper end of the support column 200, and the guiding member 400 is fixed to the side of the connecting column. Fixing the guiding member 400 to the side of the connecting column can prevent the overall height of the biological sample storage device 10 from being too high.

[0028] In some embodiments, the side of the guiding member 400 is threadedly connected to the side of the connecting member 300. Thereby improving the connection stability and facilitating disassembly.

The arrangement of the second mounting plate 700 improves the convenience of installation.

[0030] In some embodiments, the second mounting plate 700 connects the lower end of the connecting member 300 and the lower end of the guiding member 400. Thereby facilitating the installation and disassembly of the connecting member 300 (the connecting member 300, the guiding member 400 and the whole lifting frame assembly 500) (the overall height of the biological sample storage device 10 is relatively high, and the lower ends of the connecting member 300 and the guiding member 400 are convenient for operation).

[0031] In some embodiments, the lifting frame assembly 500 includes a mounting frame, a driving member mounted on the mounting frame, and a lifting member. The driving member is used to drive the lifting member to move in the vertical direction, and the lifting member is used to be detachably connected to the freezing rack 112. The driving member can include a motor, and the lifting member can include a hook, etc., and the detachable connection with the freezing rack 112 can be realized manually.

[0032] In some embodiments, the guiding member 400 is provided with a guiding groove, the mounting frame is connected with a guide rail, and the guide rail is movably arranged in the guiding groove. The arrangement of the guiding groove and the guide rail improves the smoothness of movement.

[0033] In some embodiments, the driving member is connected with a roller. The driving member is used to drive the roller to rotate. The lifting member is connected to the roller through a rope. The rotation of the roller drives the contraction of the rope, thereby realizing the vertical movement of the lifting member.

[0034] In some embodiments, the driving member and the roller are connected through a coupling.

[0035] For the embodiments of the present application, it should also be noted that, without conflict, the embodiments of the present application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other to obtain new embodiments.

[0036] The above is only the specific implementation manner of the present application, but the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. The protection scope of the present application shall be subject to the protection scope of the claims.
