TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to specimen processing technical field, concretely is a test tube transfer device. BACKGROUND
[0002] The test tube is a kind of commonly used experimental equipment, usually cylindrical, made of glass or plastic material, with an opening and a closed bottom, for holding or reacting a small amount of substance, such as chemical reagents, biological samples, etc., so as to carry out various experimental operations and observation.
[0003] When performing specimen pre-treatment cup feeding, empty test tubes need to be loaded into test tube boxes, and the test tube boxes are placed on the cup feeding equipment, and the test tubes fall out from the bottom slot of the test tube box by gravity, which requires that the test tubes be uniformly oriented and not mixed up.
[0004] However, the current practice is to invert the test tube packaging box into the test tube box, and then pull out the packaging box to make the test tubes fall into the test tube box, but the packaging box rubs against the test tubes during the pulling-out process, which can easily cause the test tubes to be tilted and mixed up, and during the process of carrying the test tube box, the test tubes are still likely to be tilted due to vibration, which can cause the test tubes to not fall normally from the slot and affect subsequent cup feeding. SUMMARY
[0005] The utility model aims to provide a test tube transfer device to solve the problems raised in the background.
[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the technical scheme of the utility model is as follows.
[0007] A test tube transfer device includes a test tube box, which is composed of a U-shaped base and a top cover. A slot is formed in the bottom of the U-shaped base.

An installation plate is arranged inside the through slot. A first bolt is threaded through the side surface of the top cover. The end of the first bolt is rotatably connected to the installation plate. An insertion slot is formed in the inside of the installation plate. A movable clamping plate is inserted into the insertion slot.
[0008] Therefore, by inserting the fixed clamping plate and the movable clamping plate into the two sides of the test tube packaging box, then rotating the first bolt to move the movable clamping plate, the fixed clamping plate and the movable clamping plate can be clamped on the two sides of the test tube, respectively. Then the test tube can be directly taken out from the packaging box, and then the top cover and the U-shaped base are combined together, achieving the purpose of quickly and neatly loading the test tubes into the test tube box. During the process of carrying the test tube box, the test tubes can also be prevented from being tilted, thereby providing convenience for subsequent cup feeding.

[0011] Further, the upper surface of the top cover is provided with a handle.
[0012] Further, the opposite surfaces of the fixed clamping plate and the movable clamping plate are provided with rubber pads.
[0013] Further, the two sides of the length direction of the through groove are provided with limiting grooves, and the two ends of the length direction of the mounting plate are provided with limiting blocks arranged in the limiting grooves.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the utility model has the advantages as follows.
[0015] The fixed clamping plate and the movable clamping plate are inserted into the two sides of the test tube packaging box, then the first bolt is screwed to drive the movable clamping plate to move, so that the fixed clamping plate and the movable clamping plate are clamped on the two sides of the test tube, then the test tube can be directly taken out from the packaging box, then the top cover and the U-shaped base are combined together, so that the test tube is quickly and neatly packed into the test tube box, and the test tube can be prevented from being horizontally arranged during carrying the test tube box, so that the subsequent cup distribution is facilitated.
