Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of biological sample collection technology, specifically a biological sample collection device with a storage function. Background Technology
[0002] Biological sample collection devices are equipment used to collect, preserve, and transport biological samples. They are suitable for the classification, temporary storage, and transfer of biological samples in environments such as laboratories, fields, or medical sites.
[0003] For example, Chinese patent CN221341829U discloses a biological sample collection device with a storage function, relating to the field of biological sample collection technology. It includes a storage mechanism with an adjustment mechanism on one side and a housing. The utility model, through the cooperation between the storage mechanism and the adjustment mechanism, allows for the placement of objects according to their needs without affecting the use of biological sample components. This is achieved through the cooperation between the housing, pins, inserts, and isolation plates in the storage mechanism. The objects can be positioned using pins after adjustment via positioning holes on the housing and inserts, allowing for adjustable placement based on different specifications of biological sample components. Furthermore, the cooperation between the limiting springs and isolation plates in the setting mechanism, and the adjusting springs, moving plates, and moving slots in the adjustment mechanism, allows for adjustable placement based on object height, thus improving the stability and applicability of the mechanism to a certain extent.
[0004] While the aforementioned patent improves the stability and applicability of the mechanism to some extent, when the biological samples collected by the biological sample collection device are temporarily stored and transported, the lack of a cooling structure inside the box makes it easy for the biological samples to deteriorate inside the collection device due to temperature fluctuations.
