[0041] The overall structure, working principle and technical effects of the suction tip box provided by the present invention are described in detail below through embodiments and in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0042] Please refer to Figures 1 to 5 The present invention provides a pipette tip box 100 comprising a box body 110 and an encapsulating film layer 150. The box body 110 is provided with an inner chamber 111 for accommodating pipette tips 170. The box body 110 is provided with outwardly facing flanges 113 around its perimeter. The encapsulating film layer 150 is attached to the perimeter of the top of the flange 113 to seal the inner chamber 111. The flange 113 is provided with a notch 116, which allows a portion of the encapsulating film layer 150 to be exposed.

[0043] In this embodiment, the box body 110 is provided with a flange 113 and the opening of the box body 110 is sealed by attaching a sealing film layer to the flange 113. This improves the sealing effect of the box body 110 and eliminates the need for a lid or plastic sealing on the outside of the box, thereby reducing costs and packaging processes. Furthermore, a notch 116 is provided in the flange 113 to allow a portion of the packaging film layer 150 to be exposed, making it easier to remove the packaging film layer 150 during use.

[0044] In this embodiment, the packaging film layer 150 is a plastic film that can be connected to the flange 113 by hot melting, bonding, or the like.

[0045] Please refer to Figures 1 to 5In this embodiment, the notch 116 is provided at the corner of the flange 113 corresponding to the box body 110 .

[0046] Since the corners of the flange 113 correspond to the two sides of the box body 110 in the length direction and the width direction, this arrangement makes it easier to tear the packaging film layer 150.

[0047] In this embodiment, the notches 116 are provided at two corners of the flange 113 corresponding to one end of the box body 110 in the length direction.

[0048] The reason for providing two notches 116 is that when tearing the packaging film layer 150 , if the packaging film layer 150 corresponding to one notch 116 is torn off, the packaging film layer 150 corresponding to the other notch 116 can be torn off, which is more convenient to use.

[0049] Of course, in some other embodiments of the present application, a notch 116 may also be provided at each corner.

[0050] Please refer to Figures 1 to 5 In this embodiment, the tip box 100 further includes a tip holder 130. A supporting ring 115 is provided around the periphery of the inner chamber 111. The tip holder 130 is mounted within the inner chamber 111 and supported above the supporting ring 115. The tip holder 130 is provided with a socket 131 for receiving a tip 170.

[0051] In this embodiment, the pipette tip holder 130 is provided, and the pipette tips 170 can be neatly stacked on the top of the pipette tip holder 130, so as to be convenient for the pipette to take out.

[0052] In this embodiment, the suction head holder 130 is provided with ninety-six insertion holes 131. These holes are arranged in eight rows and twelve columns.

[0053] Please refer to Figures 1 to 5 In this embodiment, snap hooks 133 are provided at both ends of the lengthwise direction of the tip holder 130. When the tip holder 130 is installed in the box body 110, the snap hooks 133 at both ends respectively abut against the side walls of the box body 110, thereby stably securing the tip holder 130 in the box body 110.

[0054] Furthermore, the buckle 133 is sheet-like in shape. The two sides of the nozzle holder 130 along its length are concave to form a groove 135. The bottom of the buckle 133 is connected to the sidewalls of the groove 135. The buckle 133 first convexes outward and then convexes upward. This creates a gap between the upwardly convex portion and the sidewalls of the groove 135. The outer wall of the buckle 133 is provided with three locking protrusions 137, arranged in a triangular shape.

[0055] Furthermore, four supporting portions 139 are provided at the four corners of the nozzle holder 130 . The four supporting columns are used to support the nozzle holder 130 on the desktop when the nozzle holder 130 is taken out of the rear shell.

[0056] In this embodiment, the box body 110 is provided with avoidance grooves 117 on both sides of the suction head bracket 130 in the length direction.

[0057] In this embodiment, the avoidance groove 117 is provided. When a user takes out the suction head holder 130 , he or she can insert his or her fingers into the avoidance groove 117 to take out the suction head holder 130 .

[0058] Please refer to Figures 1 to 5 Furthermore, the avoidance groove 117 is provided corresponding to the card slot. When the user needs to take out the nozzle holder 130, the user extends the avoidance groove 117 into the side of the buckle 133 and applies force to deform the buckle 133, so that the nozzle holder 130 can be easily taken out.

[0059] Furthermore, the box body 110 includes a lower box body 119 and an upper box body 121. The support ring 115 is disposed on the top of the lower box body 119, and the inner periphery of the support ring 115 is connected to the top of the lower box body 119. The bottom of the upper box body 121 is hollowed out, and the bottom of the upper box body 121 is connected to the outer periphery of the support ring 115. The lower box body 119, the support ring 115, and the upper box body 121 enclose the inner chamber 111, and the flange 113 is disposed on the outer periphery of the top of the upper box body 121. This structural arrangement allows for better shaping of the box body 110.

[0060] In detail, the upper box body 121, the lower box body 119 and the supporting ring 115 are integrally formed, and form a structure of the inner chamber 111 that is larger at the top and smaller at the bottom, which facilitates the assembly of the suction head bracket 130.

[0061] In this embodiment, a plurality of support plates are provided below the carrying ring 115 and at intervals on the periphery of the carrying ring 115 , and the plurality of support plates are connected to the side walls of the lower box body 119 .

[0062] In this embodiment, a support sheet is provided to support the supporting ring platform 115 so as to prevent the box body 119 from being deformed under the influence of gravity.

[0063] In detail, the supporting piece is triangular in shape, which has good stability and is easy to manufacture.

[0064] Please refer to Figures 1 to 5 In this embodiment, the bottom wall of the box body 110 is provided with multiple rows of liquid suction grooves 123. The outer side of the box body 110 is provided with a scale 125.

[0065] In this embodiment, the bottom wall of the box body 110 is provided with multiple rows of liquid aspiration grooves 123. After the suction head 170 is used up, the box body 110 can be used as a vessel for the suction head 170 to aspirate liquid. A scale 125 is provided on the outside of the box body 110. After the suction head 170 is used up, the box body 110 can be used as a simple measuring cup.

[0066] Please refer to Figures 1 to 5 In this embodiment, the length direction of the liquid suction groove 123 is arranged along the width direction of the box body 110, and multiple liquid suction grooves 123 are arranged along the length direction of the box body 110. In this embodiment, multiple liquid suction grooves 123 are arranged to better meet the needs of more suction heads 170 to absorb liquid at the same time.

[0067] In detail, a support ring 127 is protruded from the outer peripheral edge of the bottom of the box body 110 , and the side wall of the liquid suction groove 123 is protruded toward the support ring 127 and enclosed on the inner side of the support ring 127 .

[0068] In this embodiment, a support ring 127 is provided to enclose the side wall of the outwardly protruding liquid suction groove 123 inside, so that the stacking of the suction tip box 100 can be facilitated.

[0069] In summary, this embodiment provides a flange 113 on the box body 110 and seals the opening of the box body 110 with a sealing film layer attached to the flange 113. This provides a better sealing effect for the box body 110, eliminates the need for a lid on the box body 110, and eliminates the need for plastic sealing on the outside of the box, thereby reducing costs and packaging processes. Furthermore, a notch 116 is provided in the flange 113 to allow a portion of the packaging film layer 150 to leak out, making it easier to remove the packaging film layer 150 during use.

[0070] The above is only a specific implementation method of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited to this. Any changes or replacements that can be easily thought of by any technician familiar with this technical field within the technical scope disclosed in the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
