[0028] Reference Figures 1 to 4 The present invention provides a glove box for convenient access to and storage of items, as illustrated in the following embodiment:

[0029] A glove box for easy access to items includes a box body 100 and a storage assembly 200. A transparent window 110 is provided on the front of the box body 100 for observing the position of materials inside the glove box. Two operating holes 120 are provided on the front of the box body 100, each connected to a glove body, allowing the user to perform experimental operations on the items inside. A sealing door 140 is provided on the back of the box body 100 for replenishing materials inside. The two edges of the sealing door 140 are inserted into the box body 100, and a sealing gasket is provided between the edges of the sealing door 140 and the box body 100 to improve the sealing effect. Items are placed into the box body 100 through the sealing door 140. After the box body 100 is treated with a low-oxygen, oxygen-free, high-purity inert gas, the items inside the box body 100 are then handled through the glove body. It should be noted that this application omits the device for treating the gas in the glove box 100, and details are not provided.

[0030] The storage assembly 200 includes a mounting shaft 210, a lifting drive unit 230, and a rotary drive unit 240. The mounting shaft 210 has a positioning screw section and a guide section. The upper end of the positioning screw section is threadedly connected to the upper side wall of the housing 100. The feeding tray 220 is rotatably sleeved on the guide section, and the lower end of the guide section is connected to the lower side wall of the housing 100. The mounting shaft 210 rotatably sleeves two feeding trays 220, which are arranged vertically at intervals. The outer peripheral wall of the feeding tray 220 is provided with a driven gear 221. The lifting drive unit 230 is located at the top of the housing 100. The rotary drive unit 240 is connected to the rotary drive unit 230 and can drive the rotary drive unit 230 to move up and down. This causes the drive gear 241 at the output end of the rotary drive unit 240 to mesh with the driven gears 221 of different feeding trays 220.

[0031] Items are placed into the box 100 through the sealed door 140. The box 100 is treated with low-oxygen, oxygen-free, and high-purity inert gas before the items are handled through gloves. Items can be placed more compactly on the feeding tray 220. The feeding tray 220 is then rotated by the control rotary drive unit 240 to move the required items closer to the gloves for easier handling. Furthermore, a lifting drive unit 230 is designed, which controls the engagement of the drive gear 241 of the rotary drive unit 240 with the driven gears 221 of different feeding trays, thereby driving the different feeding trays 220 to rotate. The rotation angle can be adjusted by the gear engagement, allowing for a specified angular position. The adjustment is fast and smooth while maintaining stability. Compared to manual rotation, the angle adjustment of the entire feeding tray 220 is more stable. After adjustment to the specified angle, there will be no deviation or shaking, demonstrating high stability, adjustability, and adaptability. In this embodiment, the rotary drive unit is a motor, and the lifting drive unit 230 is a cylinder.

[0032] Specifically, when placing items inside the box 100, the sealing door 140 on the back of the box 100 is opened vertically to install the material tray 220 and place the material on the surface of the material tray 220. The sealing door 140 is only opened when installing, disassembling and replacing internal equipment and replenishing materials.

[0033] The front of the housing 100 is also equipped with a controller for controlling the starting, stopping, forward and reverse rotation of the motor and the extension and retraction of the cylinder.

[0034] When the feeding tray 220 rotates, it is mainly driven by a motor. The output shaft of the motor is connected to the drive gear 241, and the movable end of the cylinder is connected to the surface of the motor. By extending and retracting the movable end of the cylinder, the drive gear 241 is driven to adjust its position up and down. When the feeding tray 220 needs to rotate, the controller controls the extension and retraction of the movable end of the cylinder, so that the movable end of the cylinder extends and retracts, driving the drive gear 241 to mesh with the driven gear on the side of the target feeding tray 220. Then the output shaft of the motor rotates, driving the drive gear 241 to rotate. Through meshing, the feeding tray 220 is driven to rotate, so that the items at different positions on the surface of the feeding tray 220 correspond to the operation holes 120 on the front of the glove box, which facilitates the retrieval of items at different positions. The rotation angle can be adjusted by the gear meshing, and the position can be adjusted at a specified angle. The adjustment is fast and smooth while also taking into account stability. Compared with the manual rotation method, the angle adjustment of the entire feeding tray 220 is more stable. After adjusting to the specified position angle, there will be no deviation or shaking. It has high stability, strong adjustability and adaptability.

[0035] Items are placed on the surface of the feeding tray 220. The tray is equipped with baffles 222 of gradually increasing height to block materials of different heights and prevent them from falling. The surface of the feeding tray 220 is provided with baffles 222 of gradually increasing height and metal clips with torsion spring shafts. The baffles 222 are used to block materials of different heights and prevent them from falling.

[0036] Meanwhile, an elastic clip 223 is provided on the surface of the baffle 222 to grip items. The elastic clip 223 includes a first clip, a second clip, and a torsion spring, with the torsion spring located between the first and second clips. The first and second clips form a circular gripping space. The elastic clip 223 is made of metal clips. For items with curved bottoms or that cannot stand upright on their own, such as test tubes and reagents, the metal clips can be used to grip them, preventing them from tipping over or shaking. Different sizes of metal clips are available to grip items, increasing adaptability.

[0037] The entire feeding tray 220 is movably connected to the surface of the mounting shaft 210 at its center position. Ball bearings or rollers are installed between the feeding tray 220 and the mounting shaft 210 to reduce the friction between the feeding tray 220 and the mounting shaft 210, making it easier to rotate and adjust the angle. This connection and friction treatment technology plays a core supporting role in the smooth rotation of the feeding tray 220.

[0038] The bottom surface of the feeding tray 220 is provided with a guide rail 224, and a hook 225 is bolted inside the guide rail 224. The upper end of the hook 225 is provided with a sliding block, which can slide within the guide rail 224. The sliding block has damping in the guide rail 224 and requires external force to slide. The distance between the two hooks 225 can be adjusted. The hooks 225 are used to hang items, increasing the versatility of item storage positions. The hanging hooks 225 rotate with the feeding tray 220, making it easy to retrieve items from different positions on the surface of the hanging hooks 225. The feeding tray 220 has a guide rail 224 on its bottom surface and is bolted with hanging hooks 225. This structure not only realizes the guiding function when the feeding tray 220 rotates, but also provides a way to hang items, increasing storage versatility and retrieval convenience. It is an important design point for expanding the function of the feeding tray 220.

[0039] A support block 226 is provided at the bottom end of the mounting shaft 210, and the feeding tray 220 is slidably mounted on the support block 226. A flat ball bearing is provided between the feeding tray 220 and the support block 226. The support block 226 is used to support the feeding tray 220, and the support block 226 at the bottom end of the mounting shaft 210 is used to support the feeding tray 220. Adjacent mounting shafts 210 are connected by bearings, which ensures the relative stability of multiple feeding trays 220 during installation and use and that they do not interfere with each other. At the same time, it facilitates quick installation and disassembly, which is a key technical link to ensure the structural stability and flexible use of the entire device.

[0040] The motor output shaft is connected to the drive gear 241, and the cylinder's movable end is connected to the motor. The cylinder's extension and retraction drive the drive gear 241 to adjust its position up and down and mesh with the driven teeth on the side of the feeding disc 220. The motor then drives the drive gear 241 to rotate, thereby driving the feeding disc 220 to rotate. This drive method, which involves the coordinated operation of the motor and cylinder and the adjustment of the feeding disc 220's angle through gear meshing, achieves precise, stable, and flexible adjustment of the feeding disc 220's angle.

[0041] This utility model has the following advantages:

[0042] 1. Categorization and Stable Placement: The surface of the material tray 220 features baffles 222 of gradually increasing height, effectively blocking materials of different heights and preventing them from falling. Simultaneously, the baffles 222 have metal clips with torsion spring shafts, which can effectively hold items with curved bottoms or those that cannot stand upright, such as test tubes and reagents, preventing them from tipping over or shaking. The use of metal clips of different sizes increases adaptability to various items, making material placement more orderly and stable, and facilitating the categorized storage of multiple types of items.

[0043] 2. Diverse storage: The bottom surface of the feeding tray 220 is equipped with a guide rail 224, and the inside of the rail is connected to a hanging hook 225, which provides a way to hang items, increasing the diversity of item storage locations. In addition, the hanging hook 225 can rotate with the feeding tray 220, making it convenient to retrieve items on the hanging hook 225 in different positions, making full use of space and enriching the choices for material placement.

[0044] 3. Precise and Convenient Driving: A controller is located on the front of the glove box, which can easily control the start and stop of the motor, forward and reverse rotation, and the extension and retraction of the cylinder to drive the rotation of the feeding tray 220. The extension and retraction of the moving end of the cylinder drives the drive gear 241 to mesh with the driven gear on the side of the feeding tray 220. Then, the rotation of the motor output shaft drives the drive gear 241 to rotate, thereby driving the feeding tray 220 to rotate. This allows items at different positions on the surface of the feeding tray 220 to correspond to the operating holes 120 on the front of the glove box. The operation is simple and precise, enabling convenient picking and placing of items in different positions.

[0045] 4. Stable and reliable adjustment: The angle of the feeding disc 220 is adjusted by using a combination of motor and cylinder drive and gear meshing. Compared with manual rotation, it can not only be quickly and smoothly adjusted to the specified angle position, but also ensures that the feeding disc 220 will not shift or shake after adjustment. It has high stability, strong adjustability and adaptability, and provides a reliable and precise angle adjustment guarantee for material picking and placing.
