Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of biotechnology and new medicine, and in particular relates to a vibration device for a carbon dioxide incubator. Background Technology

[0002] A carbon dioxide incubator is a device used in cell / tissue culture. The incubator simulates the growth environment of cells / tissues within a living organism. It requires a stable temperature of 37°C, a stable CO2 level, and a constant pH level, making it suitable for culturing various cells, tissues, and bacteria. It is a crucial piece of equipment essential for immunology, oncology, genetics, and bioengineering. Currently, common requirements for carbon dioxide incubator structures include ease of cleaning, sterilization capabilities, minimal temperature fluctuations, alarm systems, microbial filtration, and automatic calibration. However, most cell culture laboratories use static carbon dioxide incubators. Some suspension cells require constantly agitated or shaken liquid culture media to proliferate and grow, necessitating the presence of agitation. If laboratory equipment is limited and a vibrating carbon dioxide incubator is unavailable, such cell suspension cultures cannot be performed, leading to poor cell growth and experimental failure.

[0003] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a portable carbon dioxide culture shaker that generates oscillation through electromagnetic effects to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model proposes a vibration device for a carbon dioxide incubator.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides a vibration device for a carbon dioxide incubator, including a support assembly. An electromagnetic coil is disposed inside the support assembly and is electrically connected to a power source. A metal rod is fixedly connected to the support assembly. A culture bottle placement plate is rotatably connected to the support assembly via a rotating assembly. A magnet is embedded in the bottom of the culture bottle placement plate and is disposed corresponding to the electromagnetic coil. An elastic band is detachably connected to the support assembly.

[0006] Preferably, the rotating assembly includes swing rods rotatably connected to both ends of the metal rod, and the ends of the two swing rods away from the metal rod are fixed to the culture bottle placement plate.

[0007] Preferably, the support assembly includes a base, the electromagnetic coil is embedded inside the base, a battery mounting port is provided inside the base, and the electromagnetic coil is electrically connected to the battery.

[0008] Preferably, a USB charging port is provided on one side of the base, the electromagnetic coil is electrically connected to the USB charging port, and a cover is hinged to the USB charging port.

[0009] Preferably, a number of anti-slip pads are fixed to the bottom end of the base.

[0010] Preferably, the support assembly further includes symmetrically arranged brackets fixed above the base, with the metal rod fixed between the two brackets.

[0011] Preferably, a limiting plate is fixedly connected to the bracket, and a slot is provided in the limiting plate, which is detachably connected to the elastic band sleeve.

[0012] Preferably, the culture flask placement plate has several culture flask slots.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages and technical effects:

[0014] When vibration of the CO2 incubator is required, simply place the cell culture flask on the culture flask placement plate, secure the incubator to the metal rod with elastic bands, and turn on the power switch. This generates an electromagnetic effect, causing the magnet and the electromagnetic coil to repel each other, thus vibrating the cell culture flask. Firstly, this device is portable. When suspension cell culture is needed, sterilize the device and place it in the CO2 incubator, without occupying excessive space in the laboratory or incubator. This allows for simultaneous static cell culture and dynamic vibration culture. Secondly, this device is multifunctional; besides being used for suspension cell culture in a CO2 incubator, it can also be used as a simple shaker to assist in other biological experiments. This invention is simple, convenient, and inexpensive. Attached Figure Description
