Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sample collection box technology, specifically a portable microbial sample collection box. Background Technology
[0002] Microorganisms are a collective term for a class of organisms, including bacteria, viruses, fungi, etc., encompassing a wide range of beneficial and harmful species. They are so tiny that their appearance can only be seen with a microscope. They are widely involved in many fields such as food, medicine, industry, agriculture, environmental protection, and sports, and are closely related to humans. Besides being cultured in laboratories, microorganisms can also be extracted from nature. However, outdoor collection of microorganisms requires carrying various items, such as sterile sampling swabs and sampling solutions.
[0003] A search revealed patent application CN202222792295.3, which discloses a disposable portable microbial sampling kit, belonging to the field of microbial sampling technology. The kit includes a sampling box lid and a sampling box body. The lid and body are connected by snap-fit connections on both sides. The lid has multiple evenly spaced holes, each into which a sterile sampling swab is inserted. The handle of the swab is located outside the lid, while the sampling part is inside. The box body contains multiple sampling tubes for holding sterile sampling fluid, each pre-filled with the same amount of sampling fluid as the number of sterile sampling swabs. This invention integrates sterile sampling swabs and sampling fluid, and allows for simultaneous sampling of multiple samples. This is more convenient and faster, solving the problem of carrying multiple sampling tools during field sampling and improving sampling efficiency.
[0004] However, this patent has its shortcomings. In this type of microbial sampling box, multiple sampling tubes are inserted into the inside of the sampling box. Due to the small space inside the sampling box, it is inconvenient for users to take out the sampling tubes. In addition, the multiple sampling tubes lack marking structures, making it difficult for staff to distinguish them during subsequent sampling. It is easy to take the wrong sampled tube, which affects the normal use of sampling.
[0005] To address this, we propose a portable microbial sample collection kit. Utility Model Content
[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide a portable microbial sample collection box to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a portable microbial sample collection box, comprising a box body, a threaded tube rotatably connected inside the box body, a tray threadedly fitted on the outer side of the threaded tube, a plurality of sockets fixedly installed on the top of the tray outside the threaded tube, sampling tubes inserted into each of the plurality of sockets, threaded caps threadedly connected to the top of each of the plurality of sampling tubes, a retainer fixedly installed on the top of each of the threaded caps, sampling swabs inserted into each of the plurality of retainers, stickers affixed to the top of each of the plurality of threaded caps, the bottom of the threaded tube extending out of the bottom of the box body, and a screwdriver fixedly installed on the bottom of the threaded tube, an injection hole provided at the top of the threaded tube, and a sealing plug snapped into the injection hole.
[0008] Optionally, the top of the box is connected to a flap via a hinge, which can seal the inside of the box.
[0009] Optionally, the front end of the flip cover is provided with a folding part, and the front end of the box body is fixedly installed with a locking post. This design is beneficial to the use of this device.
[0010] Optionally, a slot is provided on the folding part corresponding to the locking post, and the locking post is damped and engaged in the slot, so that the folding part can be limited by the locking post.
[0011] Optionally, multiple anti-slip strips are fixedly installed on the outer side of the wrench. The anti-slip strips can increase the friction between the wrench and the hand, making it easier for the user to turn the wrench.
[0012] Optionally, the tray is hexagonal, which prevents the tray from rotating synchronously with the threaded pipe.
[0013] Optionally, a limiting ring is fixedly sleeved on the outer side of the threaded tube at the lower part of the support plate. The limiting ring is rotatably connected to the box body and can limit the threaded tube.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0015] Through the coordinated use of tray, socket, threaded tube, sticker, limit ring, folding part, locking post, sampling tube, threaded cap, card sleeve and sampling swab, multiple sampling tubes can extend out of the box when needed, making it convenient for staff to take out the sampling tubes for sampling. At the same time, the use of peeling off the sticker can distinguish the used sampling tubes, avoiding the problem of taking the wrong sampling tube during subsequent sampling.

[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0021] Please see Figures 1 to 3 This utility model provides a portable microbial sample collection box, including a box body 2. A threaded tube 7 is rotatably connected inside the box body 2. A tray 6 is threadedly fitted on the outside of the threaded tube 7. Multiple sockets 5 are fixedly installed on the top of the tray 6 outside the threaded tube 7. Sampling tubes 8 are inserted into each of the multiple sockets 5. Threaded caps 9 are threadedly connected to the top of each of the multiple sampling tubes 8. A retainer 12 is fixedly installed on the top of each of the multiple retainers 12. Sampling swabs 13 are inserted into each of the multiple retainers 12. Stickers 18 are attached to the top of each of the multiple threaded caps 9. The bottom of the threaded tube 7 extends out of the bottom of the box body 2, and a screw pan 1 is fixedly installed on the bottom of the threaded tube 7. An injection hole 10 is provided at the top of the threaded tube 7, and a sealing plug 11 is snapped into the injection hole 10.
[0022] The top of the box 2 is connected to a flip cover 3 via a hinge. The flip cover 3 can seal the inside of the box 2. The front end of the flip cover 3 is provided with a folding part 16. A locking post 14 is fixedly installed at the front end of the box 2. This design facilitates the use of the device. A locking groove 15 is provided on the folding part 16 corresponding to the locking post 14. The locking post 14 is damped and locked in the locking groove 15. The locking post 14 can limit the folding part 16. Multiple anti-slip strips 4 are fixedly installed on the outside of the screw pan 1. The anti-slip strips 4 can increase the friction between the screw pan 1 and the hand when in contact, making it easier for the user to turn the screw pan 1. The tray 6 is hexagonal. This design can prevent the tray 6 from rotating synchronously with the threaded tube 7. A limiting ring 17 is fixedly sleeved on the outside of the threaded tube 7 at the bottom of the tray 6. The limiting ring 17 is rotatably connected inside the box 2. The limiting ring 17 can limit the threaded tube 7.
[0023] Working principle: In use, coolant can be added to the threaded tube 7 through the injection hole 10. Then, the sealing plug 11 is inserted into the injection hole 10 for sealing. After freezing in the freezer, it is taken out. Sterile saline or neutralizing agent is added to multiple sampling tubes 8 in advance. Then, the threaded cap 9 is threaded onto the sampling tube 8. The sampling tube 8 is then inserted into the socket 5 in the box body 2. The flip cover 3 is flipped forward to seal the box body 2. Then, the folding part 16 is folded over so that the locking post 14 extends out of the locking groove 15, which can fix and limit the flip cover 3. When sampling is required, the flip cover 3 can be opened using the above principle. Then, the screw pan 1 is used to drive the threaded tube 7 to rotate. Since the support plate 6 is provided with threads corresponding to the threaded tube 7, the support plate 6 drives the multiple sockets 5 and sampling tubes 8 to rise. Extending out of the box body 2, the sampling tube 8 can be easily accessed by staff. After removing the threaded cap 9, staff can use the sampling swab 13 on the threaded cap 9 to perform sampling. After sampling, the sampling swab 13 is inserted into the sampling tube 8, and the threaded cap 9 is threaded onto the sampling tube 8. Finally, the sticker 18 is peeled off to help staff distinguish the used sampling tubes 8 and avoid the problem of picking the wrong sampling tube 8 when sampling is needed next time. This portable microbial sample sampling box is easy to use. With the above components, multiple sampling tubes 8 can extend out of the box body 2 when needed, making it convenient for staff to access the sampling tubes 8 for sampling. At the same time, the use of the sticker 18 can distinguish the used sampling tubes 8 and avoid the problem of picking the wrong sampling tube 8 when sampling later.
[0024] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
