AI Technical Summary
When transporting tumor blood samples over long distances, blood collection tubes are prone to breakage and leakage due to vibration or tipping, causing blood samples to leak out and contaminate other items in the storage box. Existing technology is not effective in preventing this phenomenon.
Design a storage box for tumor blood transport, with multiple independent foam boxes inside for storing blood collection tubes. The box body and lid are sealed with an impermeable layer and have shock-absorbing and cushioning properties during transportation. Ice packs are separated from the storage boxes to avoid collisions, and ventilation holes or screens ensure the circulation of cold air.
It effectively reduces the probability of blood sample leakage causing contamination of items inside the storage box. The individual foam boxes can be replaced separately, saving costs and ensuring stability and safety during transportation.

[0026] A storage box for transporting tumor blood, such as Figures 3 to 5As shown, it consists of a box body 1, a box lid 2, multiple storage boxes 3, a partition frame 5, ice packs 6, a surrounding frame 7, and corner pads 10. The multiple storage boxes 3, partition frames 5, ice packs 6, surrounding frame 7, and corner pads 10 can all be disassembled and installed inside the box body 1. During cleaning and disinfection, each part can be taken out for separate cleaning and disinfection.
[0027] like Figures 3 to 6 As shown, the lid 2 is hinged to the top of the box body 1 and can be flipped open and closed.
[0028] A latch (not shown in the figure) is also provided between the lid 2 and the body 1. When the lid 2 is closed to transport blood samples, closing the latch can prevent the lid 2 from being opened during transportation. The latch is existing technology and has been widely used in existing storage boxes.
[0029] A U-shaped handle 9 is provided on the outside of the box 1. The two ends of the U-shaped handle 9 are respectively hinged to the left and right outer walls of the box 1. The box 1 can be carried by using the U-shaped handle 9.
[0030] In addition, both the box body 1 and the box cover 2 are made of double-layer vacuum material or double-layer plastic and internal insulation material, which gives them good insulation performance. This is existing technology and has been widely used in existing storage boxes.
[0031] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the storage box 3 is used to store blood collection tubes 8. Each storage box 3 is an independent unit. Individual storage boxes 3 can be replaced if damaged or contaminated, while other storage boxes 3 can be reused, which helps to save costs. Each storage box 3 consists of a box body 3.1 and a box cover 3.2. Both the box body 3.1 and the box cover 3.2 are made of foam or sponge material, which has shock absorption and cushioning properties during transportation. The top of the box body 3.1 has a square groove 3.4, and the bottom of the square groove 3.4 has an insertion hole 3.5 for inserting the blood collection tubes 8. The box cover 3.2 has a T-shaped structure, and its bottom is inserted into the square groove 3.4 at the top of the box body 3.1. The square groove 3.4 and the box body 3.1 are press-fitted to form a seal. The outer surfaces of the box body 3.1 and the box cover 3.2 are provided with a seepage-proof layer 3.3, which can prevent the blood sample inside the box body 3.1 from wetting the box body 3.1 or the box cover 3.2 and seeping out.
[0032] The waterproof layer 3.3 is made by spraying or brushing waterproof material, or by covering the outside of the box body 3.1 and the box cover 3.2 with a plastic film to form the waterproof layer 3.3.
[0033] like Figure 1 , Figures 3 to 5As shown, the partition frame 5 is placed inside the box 1. There is no fixed connection between the partition frame 5 and the box 1, and the partition frame 5 can be directly lifted upwards. The partition frame 5 divides the interior of the box 1 into multiple chambers.
[0034] The first chamber for installing multiple storage boxes 3 is formed in the center of the box body 1. The frame 7 is placed in the first chamber and is made of foam or sponge material. Multiple storage boxes 3 are inserted into the inner side of the frame 7, and there is a gap between two adjacent storage boxes 3. The frame 7 is located between the storage boxes 3 and the partition frame 5. During transportation, the frame 7 has shock absorption and cushioning properties, which can reduce the shaking of the storage boxes 3.
[0035] Four second chambers are formed around the square chamber, and ice packs 6 are placed in each second chamber, so that the four ice packs 6 surround the outside of each storage box 3 to form a cold chain transportation.
[0036] Four third chambers are formed at the four corners inside the box 1. Each third chamber is equipped with a corner pad 10. The corner pad 10 is made of foam or sponge material and has shock absorption and cushioning properties during transportation.
[0037] The above structure enables cold chain transportation of blood samples, and separates the ice pack 6 from the storage box 3, thus preventing the ice pack 6 from colliding with the storage box 3 during transportation.
[0038] Preferably, in this embodiment, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the depth of the insertion hole 3.5 is not less than half the length of the blood collection tube 8. When the blood collection tube 8 is installed in the box 3.1, at least half the length of the blood collection tube 8 is inserted into the insertion hole 3.5, which can ensure the stability of the blood collection tube 8 in the box 3.1 during transportation.
[0039] Preferably, in this embodiment, the partition frame 5 is made of welded screen plate, which can facilitate the circulation of cold air inside the box 1;
[0040] In addition, the partition frame 5 can also be a structure with several ventilation holes, which is also conducive to the circulation of cold air inside the box 1.
[0041] The divider frame 5 is made of plastic or aluminum alloy and is lightweight.
[0042] Preferably, in this embodiment, such as Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the height of the inner frame 7 of the box body 1 is lower than the height of the box body 3.1, which makes it easier to pull the box body 3.1 out from the inside of the frame 7;
[0043] Each of the lids 3.2 is provided with a T-shaped handle 11 at its top. Holding the T-shaped handle 11 makes it easy to insert and remove the lid 3.2 from the top of the box body 3.1.
[0044] Preferably, in this embodiment, such as Figures 3 to 6 As shown, a digital thermometer 4 is installed on the box cover 2, and the temperature inside the box 1 can be seen intuitively from the display screen of the digital thermometer 4.
[0045] Specifically, the digital thermometer 4 can be of the MT-132 or FY5140S models, both of which are existing products.
[0046] The working principle and technical effects of this utility model storage box are as follows:
[0047] This storage box can be used for cold chain transportation of blood samples for cell-free DNA (cfDNA) testing. Each blood collection tube 8 containing the blood sample can be inserted into the box body 3.1, and the top of the box body 3.1 is sealed with a lid 3.2. Based on the impermeable layer 3.3 on the outer surface of the box body 3.1 and the lid 3.2, even if the blood collection tube is damaged and leaks due to vibration or tipping during transportation, the blood sample is unlikely to wet the box body 3.1 and the lid 3.2 and seep out, which can reduce the probability of blood sample leakage and contamination of the contents of the storage box.
[0048] The storage box has an assembly structure. During cleaning and disinfection, multiple storage boxes 3, partition frames 5, ice packs 6, surrounding frames 7, and corner pads 10 can be disassembled and removed to facilitate separate cleaning and disinfection, and also to facilitate the replacement of each component.
[0049] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and not to limit it. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some or all of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model, and they should all be covered within the scope of the claims and specification of this utility model.
