[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of experimental equipment, and in particular relates to a competent cell tube auxiliary device. Background Art

[0002] In biological research and experiments, competent cells are commonly used experimental materials in fields such as genetic engineering and molecular biology. Competent cell tubes, as containers for storing and transporting competent cells, play an important role in experiments.

[0003] Existing competent cell tubes have many inconveniences during use and storage. On the one hand, when using a single competent cell tube, since it needs to be packaged one by one, it is not only cumbersome but also time-consuming, reducing experimental efficiency. Single-row cell tubes can no longer meet the needs of large-scale experiments, and existing multi-tube integration methods often have problems such as loose fixation and complex operation. This further increases the workload and experimental costs of experimenters, lacks flexibility, and cannot meet the needs of different experimental scenarios. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a competent cell tube auxiliary device to address the problems existing in the prior art.

[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the utility model adopts the following technical solution: a competent cell tube auxiliary device, comprising a plurality of placement plates, a plurality of mounting holes respectively opened on the surfaces of the placement plates, a support block provided on the inner side wall of the mounting hole, a magnetic block installed on the surface of the support block; a fixing seat for use with the support block is installed on the periphery of the cell tube, a pair of plug blocks are provided on the placement plates, adjacent placement plates are provided with slots docking with the pair of plug blocks, and a locking piece is provided between the plug block and the slot.

[0006] By adopting the above technical solution, the competent cell tube auxiliary device provides a stable and easy-to-manage storage and transportation platform for cell tubes by designing several placement plates. This design allows experimenters to flexibly adjust the number of placement plates according to the needs of experiments of different scales, thereby improving the flexibility and efficiency of the experiments.

[0007] Optionally, a pair of vertical grooves are formed on the side walls of some of the mounting holes, and the pair of vertical grooves are symmetrically distributed with the center of the mounting hole as a base point.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, a pair of symmetrically distributed vertical grooves are opened on the side walls of the mounting hole to provide installation space for the support block. At the same time, the design of the vertical grooves also facilitates observation of the installation status of the cell tube and provides additional operating space when installing or removing the cell tube, thereby improving the convenience and intuitiveness of the operation.

[0009] Optionally, the supporting block is ring-shaped, and the supporting block and the lower groove surface of the vertical groove are on the same horizontal plane.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the ring-shaped support block design allows the cell tube to remain stable during installation, avoiding experimental errors caused by shaking or tilting. At the same time, the design of the support block and the lower groove surface of the vertical groove being on the same horizontal plane ensures the horizontality and stability of the cell tube during installation, further improving the accuracy of the experiment.

[0011] Optionally, the fixing seat is in a ring shape, and an iron sheet is installed on a side of the fixing seat close to the supporting block, and the iron sheet is magnetically attracted to the magnetic block.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the design of the fixing seat provides additional support and fixation for the cell tube, while the magnetic attraction between the iron sheet and the magnetic block enables the rapid connection and firm fixation of the cell tube. This connection method not only simplifies the preparation work before the experiment, but also improves the fixation effect of the cell tube and the convenience of experimental operation.

[0013] Optionally, a pair of limit blocks are installed on the outer side of the fixing seat, and the pair of limit blocks are located on the inner side of the vertical groove.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the limit block is located inside the vertical groove, which plays a further fixing and limiting role, preventing the cell tube from shaking or falling off during the installation process, and enhancing the stability and safety of the cell tube placement.

[0015] Optionally, the locking member includes a mounting slot provided on the surface of the plug block, a connecting spring is installed on the inner side of the mounting slot, a locking seat is installed on the other end of the connecting spring, and a locking hole is provided on the side wall of the slot for docking with the locking seat.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the design of the locking piece enables adjacent placement plates to be firmly connected. The locking seat is pushed into the locking hole by the connecting spring, thereby achieving a firm connection between the placement plates. This design not only saves experimental space, but also ensures the stability of the cell tube during transportation and storage.

[0017] Optionally, the locking member includes an elastic locking tongue mounted on the surface of the insert block. When the insert block is fully inserted into the slot, the elastic locking tongue will be pushed by the inclined surface in the slot and bounce into a locked position. A release button is provided on the slot.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, the design of the elastic lock tongue and the release button enables the locking piece to easily realize locking and unlocking operations. This design not only reduces the difficulty and cost of operation, but also ensures a stable connection between adjacent placement plates, thereby improving the accuracy and reliability of the experiment. At the same time, the setting of the release button also enables the experimenter to quickly separate the placement plates when needed, facilitating the management and operation of the experiment.

[0019] Optionally, a pair of threaded grooves are provided on the placement plates, threaded columns are installed on the inner sides of the pair of threaded grooves, and support legs are installed on the other ends of the threaded columns.

[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, the support legs can be disassembled and assembled through the cooperation between the thread groove and the thread column. At the same time, the design of the support legs can provide stable support for the placement plate.

[0021] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0022] 1. The magnetic attraction between the magnetic block and the iron sheet allows each competent cell tube to be easily and securely connected together to form a linked tube. This connection method is both fast and secure, greatly simplifying pre-experimental preparations.

This integration not only helps save experimental space but also ensures the stability of the tubes during transportation and storage. Therefore, experimenters can easily split or reassemble the tubes according to the specific needs of the experiment, maximizing resource utilization.

[0023] 2. The threaded grooves and threaded columns on the placement plate allow the support legs to be disassembled and adjusted in height, providing stable support for the placement plate.

They are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific direction, be constructed and operated in a specific direction. Therefore, they cannot be understood as limitations on the present invention.

[0033] like Figure 1 As shown in FIG. 5 , the specific scheme of the embodiment is as follows: a competent cell tube auxiliary device includes a plurality of placement plates 1. The placement plates 1 serve as the basis of the entire auxiliary device and provide a platform for mounting and supporting the cell tubes 9. The number of placement plates 1 can be flexibly adjusted according to experimental requirements to meet experiments of different scales. By designing the placement plates 1 with reasonable size and strength, the placement plates 1 ensure the stability and safety of the cell tubes 9 during transportation and storage, while facilitating operation and management by experimental personnel.

[0034] Several mounting holes 2 are respectively provided on the surfaces of the placement plates 1. The diameter of the mounting holes 2 is larger than the diameter of the cell tube 9. The mounting holes 2 are used to install and fix the cell tube 9. The diameter of the mounting holes 2 is larger than the diameter of the cell tube 9 to ensure that the cell tube 9 can be easily placed and fixed in the hole. The design of the mounting holes 2 not only facilitates the installation and disassembly of the cell tube 9, but also further enhances the fixation effect of the cell tube 9 through the optimization of its internal structure, thereby improving the accuracy and reliability of the experiment.

[0035] A pair of vertical grooves 201 are provided on the side walls of some of the mounting holes 2. The pair of vertical grooves 201 are symmetrically distributed with the center of the mounting hole 2 as the base point. By providing a pair of symmetrically distributed vertical grooves 201 on the side walls of the mounting hole 2, installation space is provided for the support block 3. At the same time, the design of the vertical grooves 201 also facilitates observation of the installation status of the cell tube 9 and provides additional operating space when installing or removing the cell tube 9, thereby improving the convenience and intuitiveness of the operation.

[0036] A support block 3 is provided on the inner wall of the mounting hole 2, which provides support and positioning for the cell tube 9. The support block 3 is ring-shaped and is on the same horizontal plane as the lower groove surface of the vertical groove 201. The design of the support block 3 enables the cell tube 9 to remain stable during installation, avoiding experimental errors caused by shaking or tilting. At the same time, the combination of the support block 3 and the magnetic block 4 further improves the fixation effect of the cell tube 9 and the convenience of experimental operation.

[0037] A magnetic block 4 is mounted on the surface of the support block 3. The magnetic block 4 is used to quickly connect and firmly fix the cell tubes 9. The magnetic attraction between the magnetic block 4 and the iron sheet 501 not only allows the cell tubes 9 to be easily and firmly connected together to form a row of cell tubes 9, but also greatly simplifies the preparation work before the experiment. At the same time, this connection method also makes it easy for the experimenter to quickly split or reassemble the cell tubes 9 when needed, thereby improving the experimental efficiency.

[0038] The periphery of the cell tube 9 is equipped with a fixing seat 5 used in conjunction with the support block. The fixing seat 5 provides additional support and fixation for the cell tube 9. The fixing seat 5 is ring-shaped. An iron sheet 501 is installed on the side of the fixing seat 5 close to the support block 3. The iron sheet 501 is magnetically attracted to the magnetic block 4. A pair of limit blocks 502 are installed on the outside of the fixing seat 5. When the iron sheet 501 is magnetically attracted to the magnetic block 4, the pair of limit blocks 502 are located on the inner side of the vertical groove 201. The limit blocks 502 are installed on the outer side of the fixing seat 5 and used in conjunction with the vertical groove 201. The design of the fixing seat 5 and the limit blocks 502 further enhances the fixing effect of the cell tube 9, ensuring the stability and accuracy of the cell tube 9 during the experiment. At the same time, this design also facilitates the experimenter to manage and operate the cell tube 9.

[0039] The placement plate 1 is provided with a pair of plug blocks 6, and adjacent placement plates 1 are provided with slots 7 that dock with a pair of the plug blocks 6. The cooperation between the plug blocks 6 and the slots 7 is used to realize the connection between multiple placement plates 1. A locking piece 8 is provided between the plug blocks 6 and the slots 7. The locking piece 8 is installed between the plug blocks 6 and the slots 7 to lock the plug blocks 6 and the slots 7 to ensure a stable connection between multiple placement plates 1. The locking piece 8 includes a mounting groove 81 opened on the surface of the plug block 6, and a connecting spring 82 is installed on the inner side of the mounting groove 81. The other end of the connecting spring 82 is installed with a locking seat 83. The side wall of the slot 7 is provided with a locking hole 84 docking with the locking seat 83. The connecting spring 82 is installed in the mounting groove 81 on the surface of the plug block 6, and the other end is connected to the locking seat 83 to realize the pop-up and locking of the locking seat 83;

[0040] The coordinated design of the insert 6, the slot 7 and the locking piece 8 enables multiple linked cell tubes 9 to be further integrated into a whole group of cell tubes 9, which not only saves experimental space but also ensures the stability of the cell tubes 9 during transportation and storage. At the same time, the design of the locking piece 8 also makes the connection between adjacent placement plates 1 more firm and reliable, reducing the difficulty and cost of operation.

[0041] In some embodiments, the locking member 8 includes an elastic locking tongue installed on the surface of the plug block 6. When the plug block 6 is fully inserted into the slot 7, the elastic locking tongue will be pushed by the inclined surface in the slot 7 and bounce into the locked position. A release button is provided on the slot 7. The release button is set on the slot 7 for unlocking the elastic locking tongue. The design of the connecting spring 82 and the locking seat 83, the elastic locking tongue and the release button enables the locking member 8 to easily realize locking and unlocking operations, reducing the difficulty and cost of operation. At the same time, this design also ensures a firm connection between adjacent placement plates 1, thereby improving the accuracy and reliability of the experiment.

[0042] The working principle of the above embodiment is:

[0043] Gently place the cell tube 9 with the fixing seat 5 into the mounting hole 2 of the placement plate 1. When placing it, make sure that the limit seat on the fixing seat 5 is docked with the vertical groove 201, and the iron sheet 501 is attracted to the magnetic block 4. Assemble the support legs 102 according to the experimental requirements.

[0044] Align the insert 6 of one placement board 1 with the slot 7 of the adjacent placement board 1 and gently insert it until the insert 6 is completely inserted into the slot 7;

[0045] According to the design of the locking member 8, if it is a connecting spring 82 and a locking seat 83, then wait for the connecting spring 82 to push the locking seat 83 into the locking hole 84 on the side wall of the slot 7; if it is an elastic lock tongue, then after the insert block 6 is fully inserted, the elastic lock tongue will be pushed by the inclined surface in the slot 7 and spring into the locked position;

[0046] For the design of connecting spring 82 and locking seat 83, ensure that the locking seat 83 has fully entered the locking hole 84 to achieve a stable connection; for the design of elastic locking tongue, gently press the release button to confirm that the elastic locking tongue is locked in the slot 7;

[0047] After the assembly is completed, check whether each cell tube 9 is firmly fixed on the placement plate 1 and whether adjacent placement plates 1 are firmly connected.
