[0027] Example

[0028] Reference Figures 1 to 4The present embodiment provides a highly practical cryopreservation tube storage rack, including a storage mechanism 100 and a positioning mechanism 200, wherein the storage mechanism 100 is composed of a base 101, a support plate 102, a top plate 103 and a storage slot 101a. The base 101 is used to bear the weight of the entire storage rack, the support plate 102 is installed symmetrically on the top of the base 101, and the top plate 103 is fixed on the top of the support plate 102 to ensure the stability of the overall structure. At the same time, a plurality of storage slots 101a are provided on the upper surface of the base 101 for placing cryopreservation tubes, and a limiting hole 103a is provided inside the top plate 103 to prevent the cryopreservation tubes from tipping over during storage and movement.

[0029] Specifically, the positioning mechanism 200 includes a fixed plate 201 fixedly installed in the middle between the two support plates 102. The function of the fixed plate 201 is to provide stable support to ensure the normal operation of the splint 202. The splint 202 is located at the front end of the fixed plate. Its function is to tightly clamp the cryopreservation tube to prevent it from slipping during storage and movement. The rear sides of the left and right ends of the splint 202 are symmetrically provided with tension springs 203. The function of these springs is to provide elastic restoring force for the splint so that it can be conveniently used when taking out the cryopreservation tube. Opening and closing, at the same time, the left and right ends of the splint 202 are fixed in the two support plates 102 by the plug-in component 204, ensuring the stable position of the splint during use and avoiding displacement caused by external force, thereby improving the safety and convenience of the cryopreservation tube storage rack. At the same time, after the plug-in component 204 releases the limit fixation of the splint 202, under the elastic force of the tension spring 203, the splint 202 can be pulled backward, so that the splint 202 is in contact with the fixed plate 201, thereby realizing the limit fixation of the middle part of the cryopreservation tube.

[0030] It should be noted that Figure 3 and Figure 4 The middle tension spring 203 is in a tensioned state. Therefore, after the plug-in component 204 releases the limiting fixation of the splint 202, the elastic force of the tension spring 203 can pull the splint 202 backward, so that the splint 202 and the fixed plate 201 form a closure, thereby realizing the clamping and fixing function of the cryopreservation tube.

[0031] The purpose of this design is to release the clamping plate 202 from its position when the rack needs to be moved, allowing it to effectively hold the cryotubes and thus ensuring stability during movement. After moving to the designated location, the staff can separate the clamping plate 202 from the fixed plate 201 and secure it away from the fixed plate 201 using the plug-in assembly 204. This design not only improves the safety of the rack but also greatly facilitates subsequent access to the cryotubes by the staff, ensuring efficient and convenient operation.

[0032] More specifically, movable grooves 102a are provided on the opposite surfaces of the two support plates 102, and the left and right ends of the splint 202 are respectively slidably connected in the two movable grooves 102a. The function of these movable grooves is to provide a sliding path for the splint 202, so that it can move flexibly to adapt to different storage needs, and ensure that it can remain stable when clamping the frozen tubes. The rear ends of the two tension springs 203 are respectively fixedly connected to the rear walls of the movable grooves 102a. These springs provide elastic force so that the splint can return to its original position after the limit is released, thereby ensuring the reliability of clamping.

[0033] Furthermore, the plug-in assembly 204 includes a pull ring 204a arranged on the outside of the support plate 102, whose function is to facilitate operation by the staff. The pull ring 204a is fixedly connected to the end close to the support plate 102 with an insertion rod 204b, and the other end of the insertion rod 204b passes through the outer wall of the support plate 102 and extends into the movable groove 102a. A slot 202a is provided at one end of the splint 202 in the movable groove 102a, and the plug-in end of the insertion rod 204b is plugged into the slot 202a to achieve the fixing and unlocking of the splint.

[0034] It should be noted that the outer surface of the insertion rod 204b is sleeved with a telescopic spring 204c. This design provides additional elasticity and cushioning for the insertion rod, preventing damage to the storage rack caused by impact forces during operation. One end of the telescopic spring 204c is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the pull ring 204a, ensuring the stability and reliability of the pull ring during operation. The other end is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the support plate 102, further enhancing the stability of the overall structure. This structure not only enhances the flexibility of the clamping plate but also ensures smooth operation, thereby improving the safety and convenience of the cryotube storage rack.

[0035] Furthermore, multiple storage slots 101a and limiting holes 103a are provided. This design allows the storage rack to accommodate multiple cryopreservation tubes, making it easier to organize and manage biological samples. The corresponding arrangement of multiple storage slots 101a and limiting holes 103a ensures that each limiting hole 103a is located exactly above the corresponding storage slot 101a, forming a one-to-one correspondence. This structure not only provides stable support, but also effectively prevents the cryopreservation tubes from sliding or falling during storage and movement, thereby improving the safety of the storage rack and the convenience of operation. Through this design, staff can quickly find and access the required samples, improving work efficiency.

[0036] Preferably, the opposite surfaces of the fixed plate 201 and the clamping plate 202 are symmetrically provided with arcuate grooves 205, and sponge pads 206 are fixedly installed in the arcuate grooves 205. Through the provision of the arcuate grooves 205, after the clamping plate 202 and the fixed plate 201 are closed, a circular through groove can be formed in the middle of the two, ensuring that the fixed plate 201 clamps the cryopreservation tube in cooperation with the clamping plate 202, and the role of the sponge pad 206 is to provide buffer protection to prevent the cryopreservation tube from being damaged during clamping, while enhancing the stability of the clamping. A handle 207 is fixedly installed at the front end of the clamping plate 202, and the provided handle 207 can facilitate the staff to pull the clamping plate 202 forward.

[0037] The working principle is as follows: when storing the cryopreservation tube, the staff only needs to put the bottom of the cryopreservation tube vertically through the limiting hole 103a on the top plate 103, and the bottom of the cryopreservation tube can fall into the storage slot 101a. When taking it out, just pick it up directly. When it is necessary to carry the storage rack as a whole and move it, the staff pulls the pull rings 204a on both sides at the same time. The pull rings 204a can drive the two plug rods 204b to move toward the outside of the support plate 102. When the plug-in ends of the two plug rods 204b move out of the slots 202a, the limiting fixation of the splint 202 can be released. At this time, under the elastic force of the tension spring 203, the splint 202 can be pulled to move backward, and the splint 202 cooperates with the fixing plate 201 at the rear end to be able to After multiple cryopreservation tubes are clamped and fixed, the staff can now carry the storage rack and move it. After moving it to the designated location, one staff member pulls out the pull rings 204a on both sides, so that the plug-in ends of the two insertion rods 204b are moved out to the outside of the movable groove 102a. Another staff member pulls the handle 207 to drive the splint 202 to the front end of the movable groove 102a. At this time, another staff member releases the pull ring 204a, and under the action of the rebound force of the telescopic spring 204c, the two insertion rods 204b can be rebounded to the initial position, and the two insertion rods 204b can be reinserted into the slot 202a to limit and fix the splint 202, so that subsequent staff can use the cryopreservation tubes very conveniently.
