Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a movable, manually adjustable blood collection tube rack, belonging to the field of medical device technology. Background Technology
[0002] Medical devices refer to instruments, equipment, appliances, in vitro diagnostic reagents and calibrators, materials, and other similar or related articles that are used directly or indirectly on the human body, including the necessary computer software; their efficacy is mainly obtained through physical means, not through pharmacological, immunological, or metabolic means, or although these means are involved, they only play an auxiliary role; their purpose is the diagnosis, prevention, monitoring, treatment, or relief of disease; the diagnosis, monitoring, treatment, relief, or functional compensation of injury; the examination, replacement, regulation, or support of physiological structures or processes; life support or maintenance; pregnancy control; and providing information for medical or diagnostic purposes by examining samples from the human body.
[0003] In laboratories and medical institutions, test tube racks are essential for collecting and storing blood collection tubes and laboratory test tubes. Current blood collection tube racks, when test tubes are densely packed, similar in shape, and have barcodes affixed to the tube walls at a certain height, typically require manual removal from the top. Furthermore, multiple racks need to be densely packed, making accurate sampling difficult and time-consuming, thus reducing the efficiency of medical staff. While electrically controlled blood collection tube racks can achieve accurate sampling, they require excessive thickness at the bottom and require a power supply from the electrical system, significantly increasing overall weight and size. This makes them unsuitable for hospital laboratories, laboratory storage rooms, and other scenarios requiring multiple identical racks stacked. Each rack occupies too much space, resulting in low vertical space utilization. The cost of embedded circuitry is also high, making it unsuitable for frequent replacement as a consumable. The internal center of gravity is unstable, leading to instability when vertically stacking test tubes that are not fully filled, causing sample spillage. Therefore, we propose a movable, manually adjustable blood collection tube rack to solve these problems. Utility Model Content
[0004] To address the aforementioned problems, this utility model provides a movable, manually adjustable blood collection tube rack. The specific technical solution is as follows:
[0005] A movable, manually adjustable blood collection tube rack includes a main body. Equally spaced support plates are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the main body. Each support plate has equally spaced placement holes on its upper surface. Equally spaced transverse sliding tracks are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the main body. A slot is formed in the inner wall of the main body, and a female sliding module is engaged within the slot. A longitudinal sliding track is formed in the inner wall of the slot, and a sliding plate is slidably connected within the longitudinal sliding track. The right side of the sliding plate is fixedly connected to the left side of the female sliding module. A symmetrical sliding groove is formed in the inner wall of the female sliding module, and a slider is slidably connected within both grooves. A sub-sliding module is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the slider.
[0006] Preferably, the main body of the test tube rack is made of foam material, and the number of the horizontal sliding tracks is six.
[0007] Preferably, the diameter of the top end of the placement hole is larger than the diameter of the blood collection tube, and the diameter of the bottom end of the placement hole is smaller than the diameter of the blood collection tube.
[0008] Preferably, a symmetrical extension block is fixedly connected to the right side of the mother sliding module, and a symmetrical anti-slip pad is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the test tube rack body.
[0009] Preferably, the outer surface of the test tube rack body is fixedly connected with symmetrical buckle plates, and the upper surface of both buckle plates is provided with buckle grooves.
[0010] Preferably, the outer surfaces of both buckles are fitted with anti-slip sleeves, and a nameplate is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the test tube rack body.
[0011] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0012] This movable, manually adjustable blood collection tube / test tube rack utilizes a longitudinal sliding rail to allow the main sliding module to move horizontally on the left side, facilitating manual operation by medical staff. This allows the sub-sliding modules to reach each row of blood collection tubes and test tubes. A transverse sliding rail allows the sub-sliding modules to slide manually under each row of blood collection tubes and test tubes. The main sliding module facilitates manual movement and allows the sub-sliding modules to connect to the transverse sliding rail. Once the sub-sliding modules contact the bottom of the blood collection tubes and test tubes, they can be lifted upwards, allowing the rack to reach each precise test tube position on the transverse sliding rail and expose its information, improving the efficiency of medical staff. The rack has a rectangular shape with an embedded lifting module at the bottom that does not protrude from the rack base, allowing for the vertical stacking of multiple racks of the same shape. This maintains accurate sampling while keeping consumables cost-effective. The rack uses plastic blocks moving on foam tracks for manual lifting, avoiding the cost of equipping each consumable with a circuit motor. The internal sliding tracks are evenly distributed, ensuring a stable center of gravity and adaptability to various placement requirements. Attached Figure Description

[0018] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "joining" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.
[0019] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0020] Please see Figure 1-4 In this utility model, a movable, manually adjustable blood collection tube rack includes a rack body 1. Equally spaced support plates 2 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the rack body 1. Each support plate 2 has equally spaced placement holes 3 on its upper surface. Equally spaced transverse sliding rails 4 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the rack body 1. A slot 5 is formed on the inner wall of the rack body 1, and a female sliding module 6 is engaged inside the slot 5. A longitudinal sliding rail 10 is formed on the inner wall of the slot 5, and a sliding plate 11 is slidably connected inside the longitudinal sliding rail 10. The right side of the sliding plate 11 is fixedly connected to the left side of the female sliding module 6. A symmetrical sliding groove 7 is formed on the inner wall of the female sliding module 6. The two sliding grooves 7 are connected to a slider 8, and a sub-sliding module 9 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the slider 8. The longitudinal sliding rail 10 allows the mother sliding module 6 to move horizontally on the left side, which is convenient for medical staff to operate manually. The sub-sliding module 9 can reach each row of blood collection tubes and test tubes. The transverse sliding rail 4 allows the sub-sliding module 9 to slide manually under each row of blood collection tubes and test tubes. The mother sliding module 6 is easy to move manually and facilitates the docking of the sub-sliding module 9 with the transverse sliding rail 4. The sub-sliding module 9 can reach each precise test tube position on the transverse sliding rail 4 and lift it up to expose its information. It has strip-shaped protrusions on the left and right ends for easy manual movement.
[0021] The main body 1 of the test tube rack is made of foam. There are six horizontal sliding tracks 4. The diameter of the top of the placement hole 3 is larger than the diameter of the blood collection tube, and the diameter of the bottom of the placement hole 3 is smaller than the diameter of the blood collection tube. A symmetrical extension block 12 is fixedly connected to the right side of the mother sliding module 6. A symmetrical anti-slip pad 13 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the test tube rack main body 1. Blood collection tubes can be placed through the placement hole 3. The extension block 12 facilitates the sliding of the mother sliding module 6 by medical staff. The anti-slip pad 13 can stably place the device and prevent the device from sliding. The fact that the test tube rack main body 1 is made of foam can reduce the counterweight of the test tube rack main body 1 and reduce the volume of the test tube rack main body 1.
[0022] The outer surface of the test tube rack body 1 is fixedly connected with symmetrical buckle plates 15. Each buckle plate 15 has a buckle groove 16 on its upper surface and an anti-slip sleeve 17 on its outer surface. A label 14 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the test tube rack body 1. The combination of the buckle plates 15, buckle grooves 16, and anti-slip sleeves 17 facilitates the movement of the device by medical staff, preventing slippage during handling. The label 14 helps medical staff locate the corresponding test tube rack body 1.
[0023] The working principle of this utility model is as follows:
[0024] In use, first, place the test tube rack body 1 stably in a suitable position, then place the blood collection tube inside the placement hole 3, so that the bottom of the blood collection tube protrudes from the placement hole 3, which facilitates the lifting of the sub-sliding module 9. Then, the longitudinal sliding rail 10 allows the mother sliding module 6 to move horizontally on the left side, which is convenient for medical staff to operate manually, so that the sub-sliding module 9 can reach each row of blood collection tubes and test tubes. Then, the transverse sliding rail 4 allows the sub-sliding module 9 to slide manually under each row of blood collection tubes and test tubes in the transverse direction. The mother sliding module 6 facilitates manual movement and makes it easy for the sub-sliding module 9 to connect with the transverse sliding rail 4. Then, the sub-sliding module 9 can reach each precise test tube position on the transverse sliding rail 4 and lift it up to expose its information. It has strip-shaped protrusions on the left and right ends for easy manual movement.
