Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of antibody storage, and in particular to a storable antibody incubation box. Background Technology

[0002] Antibody incubation is a common technique in biological and medical research, primarily used to detect specific antigens or analyze protein-protein interactions. After the antibody has completed the experiment in the antibody incubation chamber, it needs to be transferred back to a centrifuge tube. Traditional antibody incubation chambers, due to their poor sealing, cannot store antibodies effectively, leading to antibody loss and making direct antibody storage impossible. Furthermore, the process of transferring antibodies from the antibody incubation chamber to the centrifuge tube also has many shortcomings.

[0003] For example, during the process of transferring antibodies from the antibody incubation cassette to centrifuge tubes, some antibodies may be lost due to improper handling or other factors. Additionally, antibodies may be affected by temperature changes, light exposure, and other factors during transfer, leading to antibody degradation and reduced activity and stability. Finally, storing the antibodies back in centrifuge tubes requires additional time and handling, potentially increasing the time cost of the experiment.

[0004] Therefore, we need an antibody incubation box that can store antibodies so that after antibody incubation experiments, the antibodies do not need to be stored back into centrifuge tubes, but can be stored directly in the antibody incubation box. Utility Model Content

[0038] Reference Appendix Figure 1 To be continued Figure 4 As shown, a storable antibody incubation box according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention is illustrated. The storable antibody incubation box 1 can be directly used to store an antibody. After antibody incubation experiments, there is no need to re-store the antibody in a centrifuge tube, reducing the risk of antibody loss during transfer. Furthermore, the storable antibody incubation box 1 provides good sealing, which helps maintain stability.

[0039] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the overall structure of the storable antibody incubation box 1 according to a first preferred embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, the storable antibody incubation box 1 includes a bottom box assembly 10 and a cover assembly 20. The cover assembly 20 is disposed above the bottom box assembly 10, thereby the bottom box assembly 10 provides support and fixation for the cover assembly 20. The bottom box assembly 10 has a storage cavity 11, and the cover assembly 20 covers the bottom box assembly 10 to seal the storage cavity 11. The antibody is adapted to be stored in the storage cavity 11.

[0040] The cover assembly 20 includes a closed cover 21 and a movable cover 22. The closed cover 21 is integrally connected to the top of the base box assembly 10, and the movable cover 22 is openably disposed above the base box assembly 10 and fitted to the closed cover 21. In other words, the closed cover 21, through its integrated design, is firmly connected to the top of the base box assembly 10, forming a sealed environment that effectively protects the antibodies inside and prevents evaporation. This sealed structure maintains the stability of the antibodies, ensuring the accuracy of experimental results. When the movable cover 22 is closed, it effectively prevents the entry of external air and impurities, while it can be easily opened when needed, facilitating antibody sampling, reagent addition, or observation of the experimental process. This allows researchers to flexibly control the experimental environment during antibody incubation experiments, meeting experimental requirements and improving operational convenience.

[0041] In this embodiment, when the movable cover 22 is closed over the bottom box assembly 10, the movable cover 22 is in a closed state, that is, the storable antibody incubation box 1 is in a closed state; when the movable cover 22 is open over the bottom box assembly 10, the movable cover 22 is in a closed-open state, that is, the storable antibody incubation box 1 is in an open state.

[0042] Specifically, the sealing cover 21, the movable cover 22, and the bottom box assembly 10 are connected as a whole. The sealing cover 21 is integrally formed on the bottom box assembly 10 and covers the bottom box assembly 10 to form a sealing part 101. The movable cover 22 is openably disposed above the bottom box assembly 10 and fits against the sealing cover 21 to form an opening part 102. That is, the sealing cover 21 is disposed on the sealing part 101, and the movable cover 22 is disposed on the opening part 102. When the antibody is stored in the storage cavity 11, when the storable antibody incubation box 1 is placed, the storable antibody incubation box 1 is configured to be housed in a box shell 80 with the sealing part 101 facing downwards. The sealing cover 21 and the bottom box assembly 10 are in a completely sealed state, so that the antibody will not overflow from the storage cavity 11. The storable antibody incubation box 1 housed in the casing 80 can be manufactured according to actual needs, and the size of the casing 80 is also manufactured according to the actual size of the storable antibody incubation box 1 to meet different usage requirements.

[0043] In the embodiments of this application, the closed portion 101 and the open portion 102 are connected as a whole to form the storable antibody incubation box 1. Preferably, the closed portion 101 and the open portion 102 each occupy half of the storable antibody incubation box 1, that is, the closed cover 21 and the movable cover 22 have the same area. Based on this, the amount of antibody stored in the storage cavity 11 is not greater than half the volume of the storage cavity 11, so that when the storable antibody incubation box 1 is set to be stored in the housing 80 with the closed portion 101 facing down, the antibody is completely stored in the closed portion 101, avoiding excessive antibody overflow into the open portion 102.

[0044] It is worth mentioning that the storable antibody incubation box 1 is configured with a preset shape. According to an embodiment of the present invention, the storable antibody incubation box 1 is configured as a cuboid. It is also worth noting that, according to other possible embodiments of the present invention, the storable antibody incubation box 1 can also be other shapes, which is not a limitation of the present invention. Preferably, in the embodiment of this application, the outer dimensions of the storable antibody incubation box 1 are set to 90mm × 60mm × 35mm. In other words, the length of the long side of the bottom box assembly 10 is set to 90mm, the length of the short side of the bottom box assembly 10 is set to 60mm, and the total height of the bottom box assembly 10 and the cover assembly 20 is set to 35mm. In other possible embodiments, the length of the long side of the bottom box assembly 10 can also be set to 80mm to 100mm, the length of the short side of the bottom box assembly 10 can also be set to 50mm to 70mm, and the total height of the bottom box assembly 10 and the cover assembly 20 can also be set to 25mm to 45mm. This is not a limitation of the present invention.

[0045] In the embodiments of this application, the storable antibody incubation box 1 is implemented as a transparent box, and the material of the storable antibody incubation box 1 is preferably made of plastic.

[0046] The sealing cover 21 includes an extension 213, three sealing edges 211, and a fitting edge 212. The sealing edges 211 are integrally connected to the upper end of the bottom box assembly 10 to fix the sealing cover 21 to the bottom box assembly 21. The fitting edge 212 is fitted to the movable cover 22. In other words, when the movable cover 22 is in the closed state, the sealing cover 21 and the movable cover 22 are fitted together to seal the storage cavity 11, so that the storage cavity 11 has good stability and airtightness, effectively protecting the antibody from leakage or evaporation. The extension 213 extends outward from the fitting edge 212. When the movable cover 22 is in the closed state, the side of the movable cover 22 near the fitting edge 212 is adapted to cover the extension 213, so that the gap between the closed cover 21 and the movable cover 22 is sealed by the extension 213, thereby ensuring that the antibody will not be lost and enhancing the sealing performance of the storable antibody incubation box 1. Specifically, the upper surface of the extension 213 is flush with the upper end of the bottom box assembly 10, so that when the side of the movable cover 22 near the fitting edge 212 covers the extension 213, the closed cover 21 and the movable cover 22 fit together without any height difference.

[0047] The movable cover 22 includes a cover portion 221 and an extension portion 222. The extension portion 222 is connected to the cover portion 221. Specifically, the extension portion 222 bends outward from the cover portion 221 to connect to the bottom box assembly 10, thereby stabilizing the movable cover 22 when it is in the closed state. The extension portion 222 has an inner surface 2221, which is adapted to fit against the outer surface of the bottom box assembly 10.

[0048] Specifically, the movable cover 22 further includes a first fixing component 223 and a second fixing component 224. The first fixing component 223 is disposed on the inner surface 2221 of the extension 222, and the second fixing component 224 is disposed on the outer surface of the base box assembly 10. The first fixing component 223 and the second fixing component 224 are adapted to be connected and fixed to each other, thereby fixing the movable cover 22 and the base box assembly 10 and ensuring the stability of the movable cover 22 when it is in the closed state. In the embodiments of this application, the first fixing component 223 and the second fixing component 224 are both configured as a snap-fit, so that the first fixing component 223 can be snapped onto the second fixing component 224. In other possible embodiments, the first fixing component 223 and the second fixing component 224 can be configured as two magnets for magnetic attraction, etc., which is not a limitation of this utility model.

[0049] More specifically, the cover portion 221 has a first side edge 2211, a second side edge 2212, an extension edge 2213, and a fixed edge 2214, wherein the fixed edge 2214 is integrally connected to the top of the bottom box assembly 10 to fix one side of the movable cover 22 to the bottom box assembly 10, and the extension edge 2213 is disposed between the cover portion 221 and the extension portion 222 to connect the cover portion 221 and the extension portion 222. The first side edge 2211 and the second side edge 2212 are the two sides of the cover portion 221, wherein the first side edge 2211 is adapted to fit against the fitting edge 212 of the closed cover 21, and the second side edge 2212 is adapted to fit against the top of the bottom box assembly 10. Thus, when the movable cover 22 is in the closed state, the closed cover 21 can seal the closed portion 101, and the movable cover 22 can seal the opening portion 102, so that the storage cavity 11 is in a sealed state to facilitate the storage of the antibody.

[0050] In summary, the storable antibody incubation box 1 can be directly used to store the antibody. After antibody incubation experiments, there is no need to re-store the antibody in centrifuge tubes, reducing the risk of antibody loss during transfer. In other words, the storable antibody incubation box 1 is equipped with a sealing cap 21 and a movable cap 22. The sealing portion 101 of the sealing cap 21 provides good sealing, which helps maintain the stability of the antibody and reduces the evaporation and spillage of the antibody. The opening portion 102 of the movable cap 22 can effectively prevent the entry of external air and impurities when closed, while it can be easily opened when needed, facilitating antibody sampling, reagent addition, or observation of the experimental process. This allows researchers to flexibly control the experimental environment during antibody incubation experiments, meeting experimental requirements and improving operational convenience.

[0051] As attached Figure 5 and Figure 6 This paper describes a storable antibody incubation box 1A provided in a second preferred embodiment of the present invention. The storable antibody incubation box 1A in this preferred embodiment is a variation of the first preferred embodiment described above.

[0052] Similarly, in this embodiment, the storable antibody incubation box 1 includes a base assembly 10 and a cover assembly 20. The cover assembly 20 is disposed above the base assembly 10, thereby providing support and fixation for the cover assembly 20. The base assembly 10 has a storage cavity 11, and the cover assembly 20 covers the base assembly 10 to seal the storage cavity 11. The antibody is suitable for storage within the storage cavity 11. The cover assembly 20 includes a closed cover 21 and a movable cover 22. The closed cover 21 is integrally formed on the base assembly 10 and covers the base assembly 10 to form a closed portion 101. The movable cover 22 is openably disposed above the base assembly 10 and fits against the closed cover 21 to form an open portion 102. When the storable antibody incubation box 1 is placed, the storable antibody incubation box 1 is arranged to be stored in a box shell 80 with the closed part 101 facing downwards, and the closed cover 21 and the bottom box assembly 10 are in a completely closed state, so that the antibody will not overflow from the storage cavity 11.

[0053] The closed cover 21 has three closed edges 211 and one fitting edge 212. The movable cover 22 includes a cover portion 221 and an extension portion 222. The extension portion 222 is connected to the cover portion 221. The cover portion 221 has a first side edge 2211, a second side edge 2212, an extended edge 2213, and a fixed edge 2214. The fixed edge 2214 is integrally connected to the top of the bottom box assembly 10 to fix one side of the movable cover 22 to the bottom box assembly 10. The extended edge 2213 is disposed between the cover portion 221 and the extension portion 222 to connect the cover portion 221 and the extension portion 222. The first side edge 2211 is adapted to fit against the fitting edge 212 of the closed cover 21, and the second side edge 2212 is adapted to fit against the top of the bottom box assembly 10.

[0054] In particular, in this embodiment, the storable antibody incubation box 1 further includes a sealing member 30, which is disposed on the movable cover 22. Specifically, the sealing member 30 is disposed on the inner surface of the movable cover 22 and surrounds the first side edge 2211, the second side edge 2212 and the extended edge 2213, which helps to improve the sealing performance of the storable antibody incubation box 1 and prevent antibody loss. In other words, when the movable cover 22 is in the closed state, the sealing member 30 is attached to the bottom box assembly 10. The sealing member 30 surrounds the first side edge 2211, the second side edge 2212 and the extended edge 2213, so that the gap between the first side edge 2211, the second side edge 2212 and the extended edge 2213 and the bottom box assembly 10 is completely sealed by the sealing member 30. Thus, when the antibody is stored in the storage cavity 11, it is in a completely sealed state, ensuring the airtightness of the storable antibody incubation box 1 and preventing antibody loss.
