Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of cell culture equipment, and more specifically, to an adjustable cell culture device. Background Art

[0002] Cell culture refers to a method of simulating the in vivo environment (sterility, suitable temperature, pH and certain nutritional conditions, etc.) in vitro to enable cells to survive, grow, reproduce and maintain their main structures and functions. Cell culture is also called cell cloning technology. The formal term in biology is cell culture technology. During the cell culture process, a culture device is required.

[0003] Based on the above, the inventors discovered that existing culture devices lack the ability to regulate the cell culture fluid. Because the culture fluid is a mixture, static sedimentation may occur during the cell culture process, causing the nutrients in the culture fluid to accumulate at the bottom of the culture bottle, resulting in uneven distribution of the nutrient solution and affecting the culture effect. Therefore, in view of this, the inventors have studied and improved the existing structure to provide an adjustable cell culture device in order to achieve a more practical purpose. Utility Model Content

[0004] In response to the problems existing in the prior art, the purpose of the present invention is to provide an adjustable cell culture device. This solution is equipped with an adjustment component, which can make the vessel shake back and forth during the culture process, so that the nutrient solution is evenly distributed, thereby improving the cell culture effect. In addition, an anti-fall-off component is provided to ensure the installation stability of the vessel, avoid it from falling off during subsequent shaking, and ensure the smooth progress of the culture work.

[0005] In order to solve the above problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions.

[0006] , The cam is fixedly provided with a toothed plate, and the toothed plate is fixedly provided with a toothed plate, and the toothed plate is fixedly provided with a toothed plate.

[0007] The anti-slip mechanism includes a group of sliding blocks arranged in a ring array, the two ends of the sliding blocks are respectively fixedly connected with a clamping spring and a clamping block, and the top of the clamping block is provided with a pressure surface.

[0008] Furthermore, the outer end of the adjusting rod is sleeved on the outer side of the top end of the lifting plate, and the adjusting rod is movably connected to the top end of the lifting plate.

[0009] Furthermore, the two lifting plates are symmetrically arranged, and the lifting plates are slidably connected to the support base.

[0010] Furthermore, the gear rod is located in the center of the support seat, and the gear rod is movably connected to the support seat, and the gear rod is meshed with both sets of racks.

[0011] Furthermore, the sliding block is located inside the support plate, and the sliding block is slidably connected to the support plate.

[0012] Furthermore, one end of the clamping spring away from the sliding block is fixedly connected to the inner surface of the support plate.

[0013] Furthermore, the outer end of the clamping block passes through the support plate and fits against the outer surface of the culture dish, and the pressure surface is arranged in an inclined shape.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of the present invention are:

[0015] (1) This solution rotates the gear rod and meshes with the connected rack to make the two lifting plates move synchronously in opposite directions. During the vertical movement of the lifting plate, the adjusting rod pulls the support plate to rotate with the top of the support rod as the axis. At the same time, the adjusting rod automatically adjusts the extension and contraction. Compared with the existing technology, the setting of the adjustment component can make the vessel rock back and forth during the culture process, so that the nutrient solution is evenly distributed, thereby improving the effect of cell culture.

[0016] (2) By setting up an anti-slip mechanism, the culture dish squeezes the pressure surface, and the clamping block and the sliding block slide inward. When the sliding block slides inward, the clamping spring is compressed. After the culture dish is clamped with the support plate, the reset force of the clamping spring causes the sliding block to push the clamping block to clamp and fix the culture dish. Compared with the existing technology, the anti-slip component is set to ensure the installation stability of the vessel, avoid the problem of it falling off during the subsequent shaking process, and ensure the smooth progress of the culture work.

[0024] The anti-slip mechanism 9 includes a group of sliding blocks 12 arranged in a ring array, and the two ends of the sliding block 12 are fixedly connected to a clamping spring 13 and a clamping block 14 respectively. A pressure surface 15 is provided on the top of the clamping block 14. In order to ensure the stability of the culture dish 5 during the shaking process, an anti-slip mechanism 9 is provided.

[0025] See Figure 2 The outer end of the adjusting rod 8 is sleeved on the outer side of the top of the lifting plate 7, and the adjusting rod 8 is movably connected to the top of the lifting plate 7. During the vertical movement of the lifting plate 7, the adjusting rod 8 pulls the support plate 4 to rotate with the top of the support rod 2 as the axis. At the same time, the adjusting rod 8 automatically retracts and adjusts, so that the nutrient solution is evenly distributed inside the culture dish 5.

[0026] See Figure 3 The two lifting plates 7 are symmetrically arranged, and the lifting plates 7 are slidably connected to the support base 3, and the two lifting plates 7 move synchronously in opposite directions.

[0027] See Figure 3The gear rod 10 is located in the center of the support base 3, and the gear rod 10 is movably connected to the support base 3. The gear rod 10 is meshed with the two sets of racks 11. The drive motor 6 is started to drive the gear rod 10 to rotate, and the meshed racks 11 are matched to move the lifting plate 7.

[0028] See Figure 4 The sliding block 12 is located inside the support plate 4 and is slidably connected to the support plate 4 , and the movement stability of the clamping block 14 is ensured by the sliding block 12 .

[0029] See Figure 4 The end of the clamping spring 13 away from the sliding block 12 is fixedly connected to the inner surface of the support plate 4. When the sliding block 12 slides inward, the clamping spring 13 is compressed. After the culture dish 5 is engaged with the support plate 4, the restoring force of the clamping spring 13 causes the sliding block 12 to push the clamping block 14 to clamp and fix the culture dish 5.

[0030] See Figure 4 The outer end of the clamping block 14 passes through the support plate 4 and fits the outer surface of the culture dish 5. The pressure surface 15 is set in an inclined shape, and the culture dish 5 is clamped with the support plate 4.

[0031] During use: the culture dish 5 is clamped with the support plate 4. During the movement of the culture dish 5, the pressure surface 15 is squeezed, so that the clamping block 14 and the sliding block 12 slide inward. When the sliding block 12 slides inward, the clamping spring 13 is compressed. After the culture dish 5 is clamped with the support plate 4, the reset force of the clamping spring 13 causes the sliding block 12 to push the clamping block 14 to clamp and fix the culture dish 5, and then cell culture work can be carried out. During the culture process, the drive motor 6 is started to drive the gear rod 10 to rotate, and the meshing rack 11 is matched to make the two lifting plates 7 move synchronously in opposite directions. During the vertical movement of the lifting plate 7, the support plate 4 is pulled by the adjusting rod 8 to rotate with the top of the support rod 2 as the axis. At the same time, the adjusting rod 8 is automatically telescopically adjusted, so that the nutrient solution is evenly distributed inside the culture dish 5, thereby improving the effect of cell culture.
