Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of centrifuge tube cleaning technology, specifically to a disinfection and cleaning device based on centrifuge tubes. Background Technology
[0002] Centrifuge tubes are tubular sample containers used in laboratory and industrial applications, primarily for separating and analyzing particles or components in liquid suspensions. They separate particles or components in a sample using centrifugal force. Centrifuge tubes can be classified by material, including plastic, glass, and stainless steel. Plastic centrifuge tubes are the most commonly used material due to their high transparency and durability.
[0003] After centrifuge tubes are used, their inner cavity needs to be disinfected and cleaned with disinfectant. Currently, the inner cavity of the tubes is mostly disinfected and cleaned manually, which is inefficient and also causes the operator to expend a lot of physical energy. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a disinfection and cleaning device based on centrifuge tubes, which solves the problem of low efficiency in cleaning tubes manually in the prior art.
[0005] This utility model provides the following technical solution: a disinfection and cleaning device based on centrifuge tubes, including a workbench and a centrifuge tube body. The top of the workbench is provided with a tube positioning mechanism for clamping the centrifuge tube body, and the top of the workbench is provided with a self-drying cleaning mechanism for cleaning the centrifuge tube body.
[0006] The tube positioning mechanism includes a support leg, which is fixedly installed on the top of the workbench. A support bar is fixedly installed on the front of the support leg, an elastic element is fixedly installed on the top of the support bar, a receiving rod is fixedly installed on the top of the elastic element, a vibration motor is fixedly installed on the top of the receiving rod, and a plastic bracket is fixedly installed on the front of the receiving rod.

A connecting pipe is fixedly connected to the top of the top limiting member, and a through hole is opened on the top of the top limiting member. A suction cup body is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the top limiting member.
[0008] As a preferred embodiment of the above technical solution, a central pipe is fixedly connected to the end of the connecting pipe away from the top limiting member. The central pipe is fixedly installed on the back of the receiving bar. A flexible hose is fixedly connected to the back of the central pipe. The end of the flexible hose away from the central pipe is fixedly connected to the suction end of the exhaust pump.
[0009] As a preferred embodiment of the above technical solution, the self-drying and cleaning mechanism includes an electric telescopic rod, which is fixedly installed on the top of the workbench, and a sewage temporary storage chamber is fixedly installed at the telescopic end of the electric telescopic rod.
[0010] As a preferred embodiment of the above technical solution, a strip pipe is fixedly installed at the bottom of the inner wall of the sewage storage tank, a high-pressure nozzle is fixedly connected to the top of the strip pipe, and a pump is fixedly installed on the side of the sewage storage tank.

Through the design of a flexible hose, a central hose, a connecting hose, and a through-hole, the working end of the exhaust pump is connected to the inner cavity of the suction cup body. The operation of the exhaust pump generates negative pressure within the inner cavity of the suction cup body, adsorbing and fixing the centrifuge tube body to its bottom, thus completing the inverted fixing process. Furthermore, the self-drying and cleaning mechanism allows for the output of disinfectant from the high-pressure nozzle and hot air from the spray head, thereby achieving the function of cleaning and drying the inner cavity of the centrifuge tube body. This improves the efficiency of centrifuge tube body cleaning and significantly reduces the operator's workload. Attached Figure Description

[0020] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention.
[0021] like Figures 1-4 As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution: a disinfection and cleaning device based on centrifuge tubes, including a workbench 1 and a centrifuge tube body 11. A tube positioning mechanism 2 for clamping the centrifuge tube body 11 is provided on the top of the workbench 1. A self-drying cleaning mechanism 3 for cleaning the centrifuge tube body 11 is also provided on the top of the workbench 1. The tube positioning mechanism 2 includes a support leg 21, which is fixedly installed on the top of the workbench 1. A support bar 22 is fixedly installed on the front of the support leg 21. An elastic element 23 is fixedly installed on the top of the support bar 22. A receiving bar 24 is fixedly installed on the top of the elastic element 23. A vibration motor 25 is fixedly installed on the top of the receiving bar 24. A vibration motor 25 is fixedly installed on the front of the receiving bar 24. The centrifuge tube body 11 is movably connected to the inner wall of the plastic card holder 26. A top limiting member 27 is fixedly installed on the top of the plastic card holder 26. The plastic card holder 26 is made of plastic and can produce a certain elastic deformation, which makes it easy for the user to insert the centrifuge tube body 11 into the inner wall of the plastic card holder 26 to temporarily limit the centrifuge tube body 11 and control the operation of the vibration motor 25. The centrifuge tube body 11 can be driven to vibrate through the transmission of the supporting bar 24 and the plastic card holder 26, which can improve the cleaning effect of the centrifuge tube body 11. Through the design of the elastic member 23, the supporting bar 24 and the support bar 22 are flexibly connected, which improves the effect of the vibration motor 25 driving the centrifuge tube body 11 to vibrate.
[0022] As one implementation method in this embodiment, such as Figure 2 , Figure 3As shown, the pipe positioning mechanism 2 also includes an exhaust pump 274, which is fixedly installed on the top of the workbench 1. A connecting pipe 271 is fixedly connected to the top of the top limiting member 27. A through hole 2711 is opened on the top of the top limiting member 27. A suction cup body 2712 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the top limiting member 27. A central pipe 272 is fixedly connected to the end of the connecting pipe 271 away from the top limiting member 27. The central pipe 272 is fixedly installed on the back of the receiving bar 24. A flexible hose 273 is fixedly connected to the back of the central pipe 272. The end of the flexible hose 273 away from the central pipe 272 is fixedly connected to the suction end of the exhaust pump 274. The centrifuge tube body 11 inside the plastic card holder 26 is pushed upward, causing the top of the centrifuge tube body 11 to fit against the bottom of the suction cup body 2712. Through the design of the hose 273, the central tube 272, the connecting tube 271, and the through hole 2711, the working end of the exhaust pump 274 is connected to the inner cavity of the suction cup body 2712. Then, the exhaust pump 274 is controlled to work and draw gas, so that the inner cavity of the suction cup body 2712 generates negative pressure, which can then adsorb and fix the centrifuge tube body 11 at the bottom of the top limiting member 27, increasing the stability of the centrifuge tube body 11 and avoiding the problem of the centrifuge tube body 11 falling off during the cleaning process.
[0023] As one implementation method in this embodiment, such as Figure 4As shown, the self-drying and cleaning mechanism 3 includes an electric telescopic rod 31, which is fixedly installed on the top of the workbench 1. A sewage storage tank 32 is fixedly installed at the telescopic end of the electric telescopic rod 31. A strip tube 34 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the inner wall of the sewage storage tank 32. A high-pressure nozzle 35 is fixedly connected to the top of the strip tube 34. A pump 36 is fixedly installed on the side of the sewage storage tank 32. The output pipe of the pump 36 is fixedly connected to the top of the strip tube 34. A sewage discharge pipe 33 is fixedly connected to the side of the sewage storage tank 32. An L-shaped pipe 37 is fixedly installed on the back of the sewage storage tank 32. A nozzle 38 is fixedly connected to the top of the L-shaped pipe 37. A hot air blower 39 is fixedly connected to the top of the L-shaped pipe 37. The input pipe of the pump 36 is connected to an external disinfectant storage tank. Controlling the operation of the pump 36 allows it to absorb disinfectant and then transport it. Disinfectant is then output from the top of the high-pressure nozzle 35 into the inner cavity of the centrifuge tube body 11, thus disinfecting and cleaning the inner cavity of the centrifuge tube body 11. The resulting wastewater falls into the inner cavity of the wastewater storage chamber 32 and is discharged by the drain pipe 33. The user can place an external container at the bottom of the drain pipe 33 to collect the wastewater for subsequent treatment. After disinfection and cleaning, the electric telescopic rod 31 is extended, causing the nozzle 38 to move to the bottom of the centrifuge tube body 11. Then, the hot air blower 39 is activated to absorb and heat the air. The hot air then enters the inner cavity of the L-shaped pipe 37 and is then sprayed into the inner cavity of the centrifuge tube body 11 from the top of the nozzle 38, thus drying the inner cavity of the centrifuge tube body 11 for timely use.
[0024] Working principle: In use, the centrifuge tube body 11 is inverted and inserted into the inner wall of the plastic holder 26. Then, the centrifuge tube body 11 inside the plastic holder 26 is pushed upward, causing the top of the centrifuge tube body 11 to adhere to the bottom of the suction cup body 2712. Next, the exhaust pump 274 is controlled to work and draw in gas, creating a negative pressure in the inner cavity of the suction cup body 2712. This allows the centrifuge tube body 11 to be adsorbed and fixed at the bottom of the top limiting member 27. Subsequently, the pump 36 is controlled to work and absorb the disinfectant solution, which is then delivered to the strip tube 3. In the inner cavity of 4, the disinfectant is output from the top of the high-pressure nozzle 35 and sprays into the inner cavity of the centrifuge tube body 11, thereby disinfecting and cleaning the inner cavity of the centrifuge tube body 11. After disinfection and cleaning, the electric telescopic rod 31 is extended, causing the nozzle 38 to move to the bottom of the centrifuge tube body 11. Then, the hot air blower 39 is operated to absorb air and heat it. The hot air will be sprayed into the inner cavity of the centrifuge tube body 11 from the top of the nozzle 38, thereby drying the inner cavity of the centrifuge tube body 11.
[0025] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it.
