Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cell culture technology, specifically a cell culture dish storage rack for molecular biology. Background Technology

[0002] Cell culture dishes in molecular biology are essential tools for culturing and studying living cells in vitro. These dishes provide a controlled environment for cells, allowing scientists to observe, manipulate, and analyze cell behavior under laboratory conditions.

[0003] After the cultured cells are loaded onto the cell culture dish, they need to be stored using a storage rack. The culture dish and the storage rack are then placed in a sterile environment and the environment is kept under appropriate environmental control for incubation. However, existing storage racks usually stack the culture dishes from top to bottom, which makes it inconvenient to pick up and put down the corresponding culture dishes, and therefore inconvenient to observe them. To address this, we propose a molecular biology cell culture dish storage rack. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a molecular biology cell culture dish storage rack to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a molecular biology cell culture dish storage rack, including a base, a bottom fixing frame fixedly installed on the top of the base, a first clearance groove opened on the bottom fixing frame, a rotating mechanism fixedly installed on one side of the top of the base, a plurality of supporting mechanisms for supporting the culture dishes rotatably connected to the rotating mechanism, a positioning mechanism for positioning the supporting mechanisms provided on the other side of the top of the base, and a lifting handle fixedly installed on the top of the rotating mechanism and the positioning mechanism.

[0006] Furthermore, the rotating mechanism includes a fixed base, a fixed shaft, a rotating base, and a mounting base. The fixed shaft is fixedly mounted on the top of the base via the fixed base. Multiple sets of rotating bases are rotatably connected to the outside of the fixed shaft. A mounting base is fixedly mounted on the outside of the rotating base. A load-bearing mechanism is fixedly mounted on one side of the mounting base.

[0007] Furthermore, the bearing mechanism includes a bearing base, a limiting ring, and a second clearance groove. The limiting ring is fixedly installed on the top of the bearing base, and one side of the limiting ring is fixedly connected to the mounting base. The second clearance groove is provided on both the bearing base and the limiting ring.

[0008] Furthermore, the positioning mechanism includes a fixed plate, a positioning piece, a rotating shaft, and a locking piece. A positioning piece is fixedly installed on one side of the limiting ring. A through groove is provided on the positioning piece. A fixed plate is fixedly installed on the top of the base. A rotating shaft is fixedly installed on the fixed plate. One end of the rotating shaft passes through the through groove on the surface of the positioning piece and extends to one side of the positioning piece. A locking piece that fits against one side of the positioning piece is rotatably connected to one end of the rotating shaft.

[0009] Furthermore, the size of the locking piece is smaller than the size of the through groove opened on the surface of the positioning piece.

[0010] Furthermore, the inner wall of the bottom fixing frame, the top of the bearing base, and the inner wall of the limiting ring are all provided with buffer pads made of rubber material.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages: The bottom fixing frame and the supporting mechanism set in the present invention can support and place the cell culture dish to be cultured. When it is necessary to remove the corresponding supporting mechanism for observation, it can be rotated along the rotating mechanism to be taken out, which makes it convenient for the operator to observe the culture dish.

Detailed Implementation

[0017] 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.

[0018] Please see Figures 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution: a molecular biology cell culture dish storage rack, including a base 1, a bottom fixing frame 2 fixedly installed on the top of the base 1, a first clearance groove 3 opened on the bottom fixing frame 2, a rotating mechanism 4 fixedly installed on one side of the top of the base 1, a plurality of supporting mechanisms 5 for supporting the culture dishes rotatably connected to the rotating mechanism 4, a positioning mechanism 6 for positioning the supporting mechanisms 5 is provided on the other side of the top of the base 1, and a lifting handle 7 is fixedly installed on the top of the rotating mechanism 4 and the positioning mechanism 6.

[0019] The bottom fixing frame 2 and the supporting mechanism 5 can support and place the cell culture dish to be cultured. When it is necessary to remove the corresponding supporting mechanism 5 for observation, it can be rotated along the rotating mechanism 4 to be taken out, which makes it convenient for the operator to observe the culture dish. The positioning mechanism 6 can limit the position during the culture placement to prevent the culture dish from shaking and moving out when the entire device is lifted by the lifting handle 7.

[0020] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The rotating mechanism 4 includes a fixed base 8, a fixed shaft 9, a rotating base 10, and a mounting base 11. The fixed shaft 9 is fixedly installed on the top of the base 1 via the fixed base 8. Multiple sets of rotating bases 10 are rotatably connected to the outside of the fixed shaft 9. The mounting base 11 is fixedly installed on the outside of the rotating base 10. A bearing mechanism 5 is fixedly installed on one side of the mounting base 11.

[0021] When it is necessary to rotate and remove the culture dish, the support mechanism 5, the mounting base 11 and the rotating base 10 are pushed to rotate along the fixed axis 9, so that the support mechanism 5 can be easily rotated out, which makes it convenient for the operator to quickly observe the corresponding culture dish.

[0022] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The bearing mechanism 5 includes a bearing base 12, a limiting ring 13, and a second clearance groove 14. The limiting ring 13 is fixedly installed on the top of the bearing base 12. One side of the limiting ring 13 is fixedly connected to the mounting base 11. The second clearance groove 14 is provided on both the bearing base 12 and the limiting ring 13.

[0023] The limiting ring 13 is fixedly connected to the mounting base 11, which makes it easy to unscrew the support base 12 and the limiting ring 13 for observation. The support base 12 and the limiting ring 13 are convenient for supporting the culture dish, while the second clearance groove 14 can be used to easily remove the culture dish from the support base 12 and the limiting ring 13.

[0024] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 The positioning mechanism 6 includes a fixed plate 15, a positioning piece 16, a rotating shaft 17, and a locking piece 18. The positioning piece 16 is fixedly installed on one side of the limiting ring 13. A through groove is provided on the positioning piece 16. The fixed plate 15 is fixedly installed on the top of the base 1. The rotating shaft 17 is fixedly installed on the fixed plate 15. One end of the rotating shaft 17 passes through the through groove on the surface of the positioning piece 16 and extends to one side of the positioning piece 16. One end of the rotating shaft 17 is rotatably connected to a locking piece 18 that fits against one side of the positioning piece 16.

[0025] When the bearing mechanism 5 is rotated and reset, the positioning piece 16 on one side of the limiting ring 13 contacts the fixing plate 15. At this time, the locking piece 18 and the rotating shaft 17 pass through the through groove on the positioning piece 16. Then, the locking piece 18 is rotated to make it rotate along the rotating shaft 17. In this way, the positioning piece 16 and the bearing mechanism 5 can be fixed and limited by the locking piece 18.

[0026] Please see Figure 4 The size of the locking piece 18 is smaller than the size of the through groove on the surface of the positioning piece 16. The size of the locking piece 18 is smaller than the size of the through groove, so that the locking piece 18 can pass through the through groove when the bearing mechanism 5 rotates.

[0027] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 The inner wall of the bottom fixing frame 2, the top of the bearing base 12, and the inner wall of the limiting ring 13 are all provided with buffer pads made of rubber material. The buffer pads can prevent the petri dish from being damaged by collision with the components during transportation.

[0028] In use, the bottom fixing frame 2 and the supporting mechanism 5 firstly support and place the cell culture dish to be cultured. When it is necessary to remove the supporting mechanism 5 for observation, it can be rotated along the rotating mechanism 4 for easy removal by the operator. The positioning mechanism 6 limits the movement of the culture dish during placement to prevent it from shaking and falling out when the entire device is moved by lifting the handle 7. When it is necessary to rotate and remove the culture dish, the supporting mechanism 5, the mounting base 11, and the rotating base 10 are pushed to rotate along the fixed axis 9, which makes it easy to unscrew the supporting mechanism 5. This facilitates the operator's observation of the culture dish. For rapid observation of the corresponding culture dish, the limiting ring 13 is fixedly connected to the mounting base 11, which facilitates the unscrewing of the support base 12 and the limiting ring 13 for observation. The support base 12 and the limiting ring 13 facilitate the support of the culture dish, while the second clearance groove 14 allows the culture dish to be easily removed from the support base 12 and the limiting ring 13. After the support mechanism 5 is rotated and reset, the positioning piece 16 on one side of the limiting ring 13 contacts the fixing plate 15. At this time, the locking piece 18 and the rotating shaft 17 pass through the through groove on the positioning piece 16. Then, the locking piece 18 is rotated to make it rotate along the rotating shaft 17. In this way, the locking piece 18 can be used to fix and limit the positioning piece 16 and the support mechanism 5.

[0029] 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.
