[0037] The existing test tube support cannot effectively clamp the sample test tube when clamping the sample test tube, resulting in poor stability of the sample test tube.

[0038] The utility model provides a test tube support.

[0039] Please refer to Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 4 In an embodiment of the utility model, the test tube support comprises: a mounting seat 100 and a clamping assembly 200. Further, the mounting seat 100 is provided with a mounting end 110, the mounting end 110 is provided with a receiving part 111, and the receiving part 111 is used for placing the sample test tube 300, that is, the sample test tube 300 is placed on the receiving part 111 of the test tube support.

[0040] The clamping assembly 200 comprises a plurality of first elastic clamping jaws 210 and second elastic clamping jaws 220, each of the first elastic clamping jaws 210 and the second elastic clamping jaws 220 is provided with a first end 230 and a second end 240 opposite to each other, the first end 230 is provided with a clamping portion 250, and the second end 240 is fixedly arranged on the mounting end 110. The first elastic clamping jaws 210 and the second elastic clamping jaws 220 are arranged around the periphery of the receiving portion 111, and the clamping portion 250 is inclined towards the central axis of the receiving portion 111. The clamping portion 250 of the first elastic clamping jaw 210 is located above the clamping portion 250 of the second elastic clamping jaw 220. The first elastic clamping jaws 210 and the second elastic clamping jaws 220 can clamp the sample test tube 300 placed on the receiving portion 111 through the clamping portion 250. It should be noted that the clamping portion 250 of the first elastic clamping jaw 210 and the second elastic clamping jaw 220 is arranged to be inclined towards the central axis of the receiving portion 111, so that the first elastic clamping jaws 210 can form a space structure with a small upper part and a large lower part, and the second elastic clamping jaws 220 can also form a space structure with a small upper part and a large lower part. At this time, the upper part of the space structure with a small upper part and a large lower part can clamp the sample test tube 300. Since the clamping portion 250 of the first elastic clamping jaw 210 is located above the clamping portion 250 of the second elastic clamping jaw 220, the clamping assembly 200 can clamp the sample test tube 300 from two layers of positions, so as to clamp the sample test tube 300 more stably and solve the technical problems in the prior art. Meanwhile, the double-layer distribution of the clamping positions is more stable than the single-layer distribution of the clamping positions, and can clamp the sample test tube 300 more stably. In an embodiment, the first elastic clamping jaw 210 and the second elastic clamping jaw 220 can be provided with two, that is, the clamping assembly 200 comprises a total of four elastic clamping jaws, and the four elastic clamping jaws are arranged around the receiving portion 111. In this embodiment, the first elastic clamping jaw 210 and the second elastic clamping jaw 220 are arranged alternately and spaced apart by 90 degrees.

[0041] In an embodiment, referring to Figure 4 , the clamping portion 250 is tapered towards the second end 240, so that the structure of the first elastic clamping jaw 210 and the second elastic clamping jaw 220 close to the receiving portion 111 is relatively narrow and easy to deform elastically, facilitating the insertion and extraction of the sample test tube 300.

[0042] In an embodiment, referring to Figure 4, the top of the clamping part 250 is provided with a guide surface 260, which is inclinedly arranged towards a position away from the receiving part 111. In this way, when the sample test tube 300 is inserted into the test tube support, the outer side of the sample test tube 300 first contacts the guide surface 260 on the first elastic clamping jaw 210. At this time, the clamping part 250 on the first elastic clamping jaw 210 is pushed by the guide surface 260 on the first elastic clamping jaw 210, the first elastic clamping jaw 210 deforms so that the clamping part 250 on the first elastic clamping jaw 210 is away from the receiving part 111, and at the same time the elastic force of the first elastic clamping jaw 210 can act on the outer side of the sample test tube 300 through the clamping part 250 on the first elastic clamping jaw 210, so as to achieve the purpose of clamping the sample test tube 300. With further insertion of the sample test tube 300, the outer side of the sample test tube 300 contacts the guide surface 260 on the second elastic clamping jaw 220. At this time, the clamping part 250 on the second elastic clamping jaw 220 is pushed by the guide surface 260 on the second elastic clamping jaw 220, the second elastic clamping jaw deforms so that the clamping part 250 on the second elastic clamping jaw 220 is away from the receiving part 111, and at the same time the elastic force of the second elastic clamping jaw 220 can act on the outer side of the sample test tube 300 through the clamping part 250 on the second elastic clamping jaw 220, so as to achieve the purpose of clamping the sample test tube 300. Until the bottom of the sample test tube 300 abuts against the receiving part 111, the action of inserting the sample test tube 300 into the sample support is completed. Further, the clamping part 250 is taperedly arranged towards the first end 230 to form the guide surface 260, that is, the guide surface 260 is arranged between the first end 230 and the clamping part 250. In this way, during the insertion process, the sample test tube 300 can quickly contact the guide surface 260 after passing through the first end 230.

[0043] In an embodiment, referring to Figure 3 , the receiving part 111 is configured as a groove structure. Under the action of the groove structure, when the bottom of the sample test tube 300 is inserted into the groove structure, the groove structure can limit the bottom of the sample test tube 300, and the double-layer distribution of the clamping points can make the test tube support in this embodiment clamp the sample test tube 300 more stably.

[0044] In an embodiment, referring to Figure 3 , the groove structure is configured as a hemispherical structure or a conical structure. It should be noted that the center line of the conical structure is vertically arranged. In this way, when the bottom of the sample test tube 300 is placed in the groove of the hemispherical structure or the conical structure, the groove structure can guide the sample test tube 300 to keep vertical.

[0045] In an embodiment, referring to Figure 1The mounting seat 100 is configured as a columnar structure, and it is to be noted that the mounting end 110 is one end of the columnar structure, and the clamping assembly 200 and the receiving portion 111 are arranged at the mounting end 110, and the clamping portions 250 on the first elastic clamping jaw 210 and the second elastic clamping jaw 220 are arranged obliquely towards the receiving portion 111, so that the test tube support is in a structure of small at the top and large at the bottom, and the test tube support is more stable when moving on the guide rail 400 of the flow line (see Figure 4 ).

[0047] In an embodiment, reference is made to Figure 3 , the seat body 120 is provided with a mounting cavity 121, and the seat cover 130 is arranged in the mounting cavity 121, and it is to be noted that since the seat cover 130 is arranged in the mounting cavity 121, the mounting end 110 is also arranged in the mounting cavity 121, and at this time, the second end 240 of the first elastic clamping jaw 210 and the second elastic clamping jaw 220 is farther away from the outside of the seat body 120. In this embodiment, in order to better support the seat cover 130, the mounting cavity 121 is provided with a supporting portion 122, the supporting portion 122 receives the seat cover 130, and the seat cover 130 is fixedly arranged on the supporting portion 122 by fasteners, wherein the seat cover 130 is fixedly arranged on the supporting portion 122 by screw locking.

[0049] In an embodiment, reference is made to Figure 1 , Figure 4The second elastic clamping jaw 220 can clamp the lower half of the sample test tube 300, and it should be noted that the identification code of the sample test tube 300 is usually attached to the middle part of the sample test tube 300, so that the second elastic clamping jaw 220 can shield the identification code on the sample test tube 300 as much as possible, and further, the avoidance space 270 is formed between the two adjacent first elastic clamping jaws 210, and the avoidance space 270 is used for avoiding the identification code on the sample test tube 300, so that through the avoidance space 270, the test tube support is convenient for other equipment to identify the identification code on the sample test tube 300 when transporting the sample test tube 300 on the guide rail 400 of the flow line, and the information of the sample test tube 300 is convenient for reading.

[0050] In an embodiment, referring to Figure 3 The first elastic clamping jaw 210 and the second elastic clamping jaw 220 are arranged along the same circumference, when the receiving part 111 is configured as a groove structure, and the groove structure is configured as a hemispherical structure or a conical structure, the first elastic clamping jaw 210 and the second elastic clamping jaw 220 are arranged along the circumference of the groove structure, so that the vertical center line of the large-small space structure formed by the first elastic clamping jaw 210 and the second elastic clamping jaw 220 can be concentric with the vertical center line of the groove structure, and when the sample test tube 300 is inserted into the groove structure, the vertical center line of the sample test tube 300 can also be concentric with the vertical center line of the groove structure under the guidance of the groove structure.
