[0014] The foregoing and other objects, features, and advantages of this utility model will become apparent from the following detailed description taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Wherein:

[0015] Figure 1 This diagram shows a structural schematic of a QR code-based intelligent storage rack for bottled reagents according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0018] Figure 4 Showing Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the base of the intelligent reagent storage rack. Detailed Implementation

[0019] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this utility model. In the description of this utility model, the terms "first," "second," etc., are used only to distinguish the described objects and have no sequential or technical meaning. Therefore, objects defined with "first," "second," etc., can explicitly or implicitly include one or more of those objects. Furthermore, the words "a" or "one," etc., do not indicate a quantity limitation, but rather indicate the existence of at least one, while "multiple" indicates not less than two.

[0020] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The diagram shows a schematic of a QR code-based intelligent storage rack for bottled reagents according to an embodiment of the present invention. The intelligent storage rack includes a base 20 and a reagent rack 10 placed on the base 20. The reagent rack 10 has a hollow box structure with multiple holes 12 for inserting reagent bottles on its top surface. The bottom of the reagent bottles has a QR code containing reagent information. The bottom of the reagent rack 10 is a transparent base plate. The base 20 has a box structure with a circuit board 21 in the center of the bottom surface inside the box. A QR code reading module 22 is provided on the circuit board. Illumination boards 23 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the circuit board. The box of the base 20 has a cable interface 25, which is electrically connected to the circuit board 21. Power is supplied to the circuit board 21 and the illumination boards 23 and data is transmitted through an external cable. The reagent rack 10 and the base 20 have mutually cooperating positioning structures to place the reagent rack 10 on the base 20. The transparent base plate of the reagent rack 10 is placed on the top surface of the base 20.

[0021] In a preferred embodiment, see Figure 2 As shown, the symmetrically arranged lighting plate 23 has multiple LEDs evenly spaced on the circuit board, and the outer end of the lighting plate 23 is tilted upward at a certain angle, so that the lighting light can be projected onto the top viewing window. In practical applications, the tilting angle can be adjusted appropriately according to the size of the top viewing window and the height of the base 20 box. In a more preferred embodiment, a light-diffusing plate (not shown) is provided above the lighting plate, so as to provide sufficient and uniform lighting light to the top of the base 20 box, which facilitates the barcode reading module 22 to read the barcode on the bottom of the reagent bottle above.

[0022] In another preferred embodiment, the base 20 is made of an opaque material such as black plastic, and its top is designed with an open window so that the barcodes on the bottom of the reagent bottles on the reagent rack 10 above can be fully exposed within the open window; in this way, the ambient light can be avoided from interfering with the barcode reading of the barcode reading module 22.

[0023] In another preferred embodiment, see Figure 3 and Figure 4 The reagent rack 10 has grooves 14 on both sides of its bottom, and correspondingly, protrusions 24 on both sides of its top. The reagent rack 10 can be placed on top of the base 20 by the cooperation of the grooves 14 and the protrusions 24. More preferably, a baffle 26 is provided on the inner side of the top of the base 20, which can further limit the placement position of the reagent rack 10 on the base 20, making the placement position of the reagent rack 10 on the base 20 more precise. Furthermore, its bottom and the base 20 form a sealed space, facilitating the barcode reading module 22 to read the barcode on the bottom of the reagent bottle on the reagent rack 10. Further details can be found in the following sections. Figure 3 To prevent external light from affecting the illumination of the base 20 from the reagent rack 10, preferably, the transparent base plate 16 of the reagent rack 10 can be detachably connected to the reagent rack 10. Except for the base plate 16, which is made of a transparent material such as glass, the rest is made of an opaque material. This design also has the advantage that the transparent base plate 16 can be removed and cleaned periodically to prevent stains on the base plate from affecting the reading of the barcode on the bottom of the bottle.

[0024] This utility model discloses a smart storage rack for bottled reagents based on QR codes. The base of the rack contains a barcode reading module. When a full rack is placed on the base, the barcode reading module reads the information of all reagent bottles and transmits the data to a management terminal, such as a personal computer, server, PDA, or smartphone, via wired or wireless means. Once a reagent bottle is used, i.e., the barcode on the bottom of the bottle disappears from the barcode reading module's window, the module instantly transmits the data change information to the management terminal. This allows for real-time management of reagent usage order and consumption, especially for valuable or important reagents, ensuring safe storage and controlling costs and safety risks.

[0025] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this utility model. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solutions of this utility model without departing from the essence and scope of the technical solutions of this utility model.
