[0002] In fields such as biological experiments, chemical analysis, and medical testing, test tube racks, as tools for carrying and securing test tubes, are crucial for the accuracy of experimental results and operational efficiency due to their stability and convenience. Currently, there are a variety of foldable test tube racks on the market. These designs, to a certain extent, address the issue of limited storage space by allowing the test tube racks to be folded up when not in use, reducing space usage. However, in actual use, these foldable test tube racks still have some significant shortcomings:

[0003] When multiple test tube racks need to be connected side by side for use, due to the lack of an effective fixing and guiding mechanism, it is often difficult to accurately align the test tube racks. When the test tube racks are frequently moved or subjected to external forces, the unstable connection structure may cause the test tube racks to easily shift in position during operation, affecting the precise positioning of the equipment. Therefore, a folding test tube rack with a walking guide structure is proposed to address the above situation. Utility Model Content

The number of the test tube rack main bodies is at least two, and sliding grooves are provided on both sides of the test tube rack main body. The sliding grooves are semicircular, and the number of the guide rail assemblies is the same as that of the test tube rack main body. The guide rail assembly comprises a bottom plate, a slot is provided on one side of the bottom plate, a protrusion is provided on the side of the guide rail assembly away from the slot, and a pair of guide rods are provided on the top of the bottom plate. When the guide rail assembly is used in conjunction with the test tube rack main body, the sliding grooves are slidably engaged with the guide rods. When two connected guide rail assemblies are used in conjunction, the slots are plug-engaged with the protrusions on the adjacent bottom plates.

[0007] Furthermore, a magnet is provided on the inner wall of the slot, the protrusion is made of metal material, and the magnet and the protrusion are magnetically engaged.

[0008] Furthermore, two pairs of mounting seats are provided on the top of the base plate, and each pair of mounting seats is fixedly connected to a guide rod.

[0011] Furthermore, the test tube rack body has a plurality of accommodating cavities equidistantly arranged along its length.

[0012] The utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0013] The utility model realizes the precise positioning and fixation of multiple test tube rack bodies when connected for use through the structural design of the sliding groove, the bottom plate, the mounting seat and the guide rod, and effectively solves the problem that the existing foldable test tube rack is difficult to effectively keep in a straight line after being unfolded and is prone to displacement, thereby ensuring that the test tubes can be accurately positioned during operation.

[0014] The utility model can effectively prevent the test tube rack body from relative displacement or tilting due to the design of the guide rail assembly when the test tube rack body moves or is subjected to external force, thereby reducing the risk of test tube damage and ensuring the continuity and safety of experimental operations.

[0015] In the present invention, two adjacent guide rail assemblies can be spliced and used, so that the user can select a corresponding number of guide rail assemblies according to the number of test tube rack bodies used in the experiment, thereby achieving wide adaptability to different experimental scenarios and improving the practicality and flexibility of the device.
