[0002] EP tubes are commonly used experimental apparatus in biological laboratories. Especially in genetic molecular biology laboratories, because of large specimen quantities and numerous projects, it is often necessary to clearly mark specimen numbers on the covers of EP tubes used in experiments and mark special letters before the number segments in order to distinguish various projects (such as A1, A2, A3, B1, B2, A3, and the like). Current operations generally use a marker pen (a marker) to manually label numbers on the covers of the tubes, which leads to problems such as missed labeling, mislabeled, or repeated labeling, especially in the case of numerous projects and large specimen quantities, and is time-consuming and laborious, with very low efficiency. If the number segment marking is unclear, the EP tubes of other experimental projects can be easily taken by mistake, resulting in errors in experimental results. Therefore, it is particularly important to invent a device convenient for labeling and clear number display.

[0003] In addition, the device commonly used for placing EP tubes at present is a 48-well plate or a 96-well plate, and the EP tubes need to be placed in rows before the experiment, and then the number segments are manually marked one by one using a marker pen, and then the sample is added. The disadvantage of this method is that the 48-well plate or the 96-well plate is relatively light in texture, and the plate is not stable enough when the EP tubes are placed, and the collision during the sample addition operation can easily cause the plate to move, and even cause the EP tubes to scatter, thereby causing experimental failure and environmental pollution.

[0029] As Figure 1 The utility model provides a kind of EP pipe rack for facilitating labeling, including base 1, the base 1 is equipped with pipe plate placing groove 2 and label component, the label component is located in the side of pipe plate placing groove 2. To facilitate the placement and take pipe plate 5, further, the both ends of pipe plate placing groove 2 are formed with ear groove 21, and the effect after pipe plate 5 is placed in pipe plate placing groove 2 is as shown in Figure 2 .

[0030] The label assembly comprises a support 3 and EP tube stickers 4, which are wound into a roll and rotate on the support 3. The EP tube stickers 4 are laminated stickers, wherein the first layer is a base paper 41, the middle layer is a label sticker 42, and the third layer is a protective film 43, as shown in Figure 3 . The protective film 43 can be a transparent plastic film, for example. The label sticker 42 is sized to match the size of the EP tube cap. The base paper 41 is located at the outermost side of the roll. In order to facilitate tearing of the used base paper, the base paper 41 is provided with a plurality of tear lines 44, as shown in Figure 4 . The tear lines 44 can tear a section of the base paper 41.

[0031] The support comprises two vertical rods 31, two horizontal rods, and a knob 32. The upper first horizontal rod 33 is fixedly installed between the two vertical rods 31 and is used to accommodate the roll. Specifically, one end of the first horizontal rod 33 is sleeved on the vertical rod 31, and the other end is inserted into the insertion hole of the other vertical rod. When installing the roll, the vertical rod 31 with the insertion hole is slightly bent outward, and the first horizontal rod 33 is pulled out of the insertion hole. Then, the first horizontal rod 33 is rotated to a suitable position to accommodate the roll, and then the first horizontal rod 33 is rotated back, while the vertical rod 31 is slightly bent, and the end of the first horizontal rod 33 is inserted back into the insertion hole, thereby completing the installation of the roll. In order to prevent the first horizontal rod 33 from moving downward, in addition to being inserted into the insertion hole of the vertical rod, the other end of the first horizontal rod 33 is sleeved on the vertical rod 31 and can be fixed by a fixed knob or a limiting step.

[0032] The second horizontal rod 34 located below is rotationally connected between the two vertical rods 31 and is used for fixing the protective film 43 of the end of the paper roll; the specific connection structure thereof can be, for example, that the two ends of the second horizontal rod 34 are connected to the vertical rods through sleeves with bearings. The sleeves are longitudinally sleeved on the vertical rods (the position can be limited by fixed knobs or steps, and the limiting step of the second horizontal rod 34 has an outer diameter larger than that of the first horizontal rod 33, that is, the inner diameter of the second horizontal rod 34 is larger than that of the first horizontal rod 33, so that the first horizontal rod 33 and the second horizontal rod 34 can be sequentially taken off), and the bearings are transversely connected to the second horizontal rod 34. The second horizontal rod 34 can include two sections which are detachably connected to each other, for example, are screw-connected, so as to facilitate taking off the protective film roll after winding. In addition, the second horizontal rod 34 is connected to the knob 32, and the rotation of the knob 32 can control the rotation of the second horizontal rod 34. For example, the vertical rod can be provided with a through hole, and the knob 32 can be connected to the end of the second horizontal rod 34 through the sleeve and the vertical rod (for example, screw connection). Now the protective film 43 is fixed on the second horizontal rod 34, then the knob 32 is rotated, and the bottom paper 41 with the circular adhesive dot paper 42 is pulled, so that the protective film 43 is separated from the bottom paper 41 and the circular adhesive dot paper 42, and the protective film 43 is wound on the second horizontal rod 34. Further, the protective film 43 is fixed by the fixing clamp. Specifically, the fixing clamp can be realized in the form of an existing clamp, and the utility model does not make specific limitation. In order to be more fitted to the second horizontal rod 34, the clamping plate thereof can be arc-shaped.

[0033] The EP tube frame provided by the utility model is convenient for labeling. When in use, first, the tube plate 5 is clamped in the tube plate placing groove 2 to avoid the tube plate 5 from moving, then the EP tube is inserted into the tube plate 5 in sequence, sample adding and other operations are carried out, and finally the EP tube cover is covered; the EP tube paper 4 is installed in the form of a paper roll on the first horizontal rod 33 above the support, and the paper roll can rotate freely on the first horizontal rod 33; then the protective film 43 at the end of the EP tube paper 4 is removed, the removed protective film is wound on the second horizontal rod 34 below the support and clamped by the fixing clamp, the bottom paper 41 (with the circular adhesive dot paper 42) after the protective film 43 is removed is held by hand, the bottom paper 41 with the circular adhesive dot paper 42 is pulled from one end of the tube plate to the other end, and the knob 32 is rotated, the protective film 43 is tightened and continues to be wound on the first horizontal rod 33; the protective film 43 continues to be separated from the bottom paper 41 with the circular adhesive dot paper 42 until the length is sufficient, the bottom paper 41 with the circular adhesive dot paper 42 is contacted with the EP tube cover downwards, the circular adhesive dot paper 42 with the label is pasted on the EP tube cover, the bottom paper 41 is lifted upwards, the circular adhesive dot paper 42 is separated from the bottom paper 41, and the labeling operation is completed. In order to avoid the bottom paper 41 being too long, the bottom paper 41 after use can be torn along the tear line 44 and discarded.

[0034] In addition, the protective film 43 wound on the second crossbar 34 can also be removed and recycled after the entire paper roll is used up. When removing, first, the first crossbar 33 is removed (as described above, one end of the first crossbar 33 is pulled out of one vertical rod insertion hole, and then rotated to the appropriate position, and the other end of the first crossbar is removed from the other vertical rod insertion hole); then, the second crossbar is fixed, the selection knob 32 is rotated off the end of the second crossbar, and the sleeves at both ends of the second crossbar are removed upward from the vertical rod; then, the second crossbar is gripped at both ends and rotated, one section of the second crossbar is pulled out of the wound protective film roll, and part of the protective film roll is exposed, the fixing clamp is opened, and the exposed part of the protective film roll is gently pulled, so that the complete protective film roll is pulled out.

[0035] The EP pipe rack convenient for labeling has the label assembly arranged on the base, avoids the problems of missing coding, repeated labeling and the like caused by manual labeling, improves the speed and accuracy of EP pipe labeling, and greatly improves the efficiency of experiments.
