Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model specifically relates to the field of ovulation collection and preservation technology, and more specifically to an ovulation collection and preservation device for infertility treatment in reproductive medicine. Background Technology
[0002] The significance of oocyte preservation lies in the fact that it allows women to preserve their oocytes when they are at their healthiest for future use. This is an important guarantee for women who may be unable to conceive naturally in the future due to illness, age, or other reasons. Therefore, in the field of reproductive medicine, oocyte collection and preservation devices are generally used to preserve oocytes for infertility problems. Oocyte collection and preservation devices for infertility are professional medical devices used in assisted reproductive technology to accurately collect and safely store female oocytes.
[0003] Mature eggs are extracted from ovarian follicles using minimally invasive techniques, ensuring a fast and accurate collection process and minimizing damage to the ovaries. The eggs are then removed using a sampling dropper and stored in test tubes.
[0004] However, in practice, it has been noted that after the retrieved oocytes are injected into the test tubes, they still need to be sealed. This process requires the oocytes to be exposed to the air for a long time. During this time, bacteria in the air will remain in the test tubes. Even after sealing, a small number of bacteria will still exist inside the test tubes, which poses a safety hazard to the storage of oocytes. Furthermore, during transportation, the support holding the test tubes is prone to shifting in the storage box, which can damage the test tubes and affect the safety of the oocyte preservation process. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide an ovulation collection and preservation device for reproductive medicine to treat infertility. A ring-shaped array of sealing sliders on a transparent test tube can seal the top of the tube, and a sealing slider at the end can wipe the end of the ovulation collection dropper, reducing the chance of microorganisms entering the inside of the test tube. Simultaneously, a positioning slot on the rotating frame assembly engages with a positioning spring plate, improving the positioning effect of the test tube holder after rotation and preventing rotation during ovulation collection. This solves the technical problems mentioned in the background section.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0007] A reproductive medicine infertility ovulation collection and preservation device includes an insulated shell and a sealing cover. The connection between the insulated shell and the sealing cover is fixedly connected in a ring array with locking buckles. The side of the insulated shell is integrally provided with a liquid nitrogen maintenance component connection port.
[0008] The inner side of the heat-insulating shell is movably connected to a test tube fixing bracket, and the test tube fixing bracket is fitted with an egg cell storage test tube in a ring array. The egg cell storage test tube includes a transparent test tube, and a locking shell is fixedly connected to the top of the transparent test tube. The inner side of the locking shell is movably connected with a sealing slider in a ring array.
[0009] As a further technical solution of this utility model, each of the sealing sliders is symmetrically fixedly connected to a return spring on its side, and the other end of the return spring is fixedly connected to the inner side of the locking shell. The end of the sealing slider away from the return spring is fixedly connected to a disinfectant cotton, and a conical groove is provided above the disinfectant cotton in the sealing slider.
[0010] As a further technical solution of this utility model, the test tube fixing bracket includes a rotating chuck, on which a test tube positioning groove for placing a transparent test tube is provided, and at the end of the test tube positioning groove, a locking spring piece is symmetrically provided and fixedly connected to the rotating chuck.
[0011] As a further technical solution of this utility model, the transparent test tube is provided with a support base parallel to the positioning groove below, and the middle position of the support base is fixedly connected to the rotating chuck. Moreover, a positioning groove corresponding to the test tube positioning groove is opened on the side of the support base near the transparent test tube, and the bottom of the transparent test tube is placed in the positioning groove.
[0012] As a further technical solution of this utility model, a rotating frame assembly is fixedly connected above the rotating chuck, and the other end of the rotating frame assembly passes through the sealing cover plate.
[0013] The sealing cover includes an upper cover with a through hole, and the rotating frame assembly extends through the through hole to the top of the upper cover.
[0014] As a further technical solution of this utility model, the rotating frame assembly includes a connecting column, the top of which is integrally provided with a rotating knob, and a locking plate located below the upper cover is fixedly connected to the outside of the connecting column, and the locking plate is also provided with a positioning slot corresponding to the test tube positioning slot.

[0016] As a further technical solution of this utility model, the upper cover is provided with a collection hole, and an egg cell collection dropper is inserted into the collection hole. The end of the egg cell collection dropper extends through the collection hole and the locking shell into the transparent test tube.
[0017] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0018] 1. In this utility model, when the end of the egg cell collection dropper moves downward above the egg cell storage test tube, after the conical groove at the end of the sealing slider contacts the egg cell collection dropper, part of the downward pressure is converted into a force that pushes the sealing slider to move inside the locking shell. This causes the sealing slider to move to the inside of the locking shell, and the sterile cotton at the end of the sealing slider contacts the surface of the egg cell collection dropper, thereby wiping the end of the egg cell collection dropper. This reduces the risk of bacteria on the surface of the egg cell collection dropper entering the inside of the transparent test tube, thus providing safety during storage.
[0019] 2. In this utility model, the operator rotates the rotating knob to make the connecting column drive the test tube fixing bracket to rotate. When any egg cell storage test tube on the test tube fixing bracket rotates to below the egg cell collection dropper, the positioning spring plate will lock into the positioning slot corresponding to the egg cell storage test tube, thereby positioning the test tube fixing bracket and preventing the test tube fixing bracket from shifting during the insertion of the egg cell collection dropper into the egg cell storage test tube, which would affect normal collection.
[0020] 3. In this utility model, the rotating chuck has test tube positioning slots arranged in a ring array. Then, the transparent test tube is placed into the corresponding test tube positioning slot. The positioning groove of the supporting base positions the bottom of the transparent test tube, and the locking springs symmetrically arranged at the end of the test tube positioning slot lock the transparent test tube, thereby fixing the top of the transparent test tube, thus fixing the egg cell storage test tube to the inside of the test tube fixing bracket.

Detailed Implementation
[0033] 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.
[0034] Please see Figure 1-10 This utility model provides a reproductive medicine infertility ovulation collection and preservation device, including an insulated shell 1 and a sealing cover 3. The connection between the insulated shell 1 and the sealing cover 3 is fixedly connected in a ring array with locking buckles 6. The side of the insulated shell 1 is integrally provided with a liquid nitrogen maintenance component connection port 2.
[0035] The inner side of the heat preservation shell 1 is movably connected to the test tube fixing bracket 5, and the test tube fixing bracket 5 is fitted with an egg cell storage test tube 7 in a ring array. The egg cell storage test tube 7 includes a transparent test tube 71, and a locking shell 72 is fixedly connected to the top of the transparent test tube 71. The inner side of the locking shell 72 is movably connected with a sealing slider 73 in a ring array.
[0036] Furthermore, each of the sealing sliders 73 is symmetrically fixedly connected to a return spring 76 on its side, and the other end of the return spring 76 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the locking housing 72. The end of the sealing slider 73 away from the return spring 76 is fixedly connected to a disinfectant cotton 75, and a conical groove 74 is provided above the disinfectant cotton 75 in the sealing slider 73.
[0037] By adopting the above technical solution, when the end of the oocyte collection dropper 4 moves downward above the oocyte storage test tube 7, after the conical groove 74 at the end of the sealing slider 73 contacts the oocyte collection dropper 4, part of the downward pressure will be converted into a force that pushes the sealing slider 73 to move inward toward the locking shell 72. This will cause the sealing slider 73 to move to the inside of the locking shell 72, and the sterile cotton 75 at the end of the sealing slider 73 will contact the surface of the oocyte collection dropper 4, thereby wiping the end of the oocyte collection dropper 4, thereby reducing the risk of bacteria on the surface of the oocyte collection dropper 4 entering the inside of the transparent test tube 71, and thus providing safety during storage.
[0038] Furthermore, the test tube fixing bracket 5 includes a rotating chuck 55, on which a test tube positioning groove 56 for placing a transparent test tube 71 is provided, and the end of the test tube positioning groove 56 is symmetrically provided with locking spring pieces 57 that are fixedly connected to the rotating chuck 55.
[0039] More specifically, the transparent test tube 71 is provided with a support base 51 arranged parallel to the positioning groove 54 below it, and the middle position of the support base 51 is fixedly connected to the rotating chuck 55. Moreover, the support base 51 has a positioning groove 54 corresponding to the test tube positioning groove 56 on the side near the transparent test tube 71, and the bottom of the transparent test tube 71 is placed in the positioning groove 54.
[0040] By adopting the above technical solution, the rotating chuck 55 is provided with test tube positioning grooves 56 in a ring array. Then, the transparent test tube 71 is placed into the corresponding test tube positioning groove 56. The positioning groove 54 of the supporting base 51 positions the bottom of the transparent test tube 71, and the locking springs 57 symmetrically arranged at the end of the test tube positioning groove 56 lock the transparent test tube 71, thereby fixing the top of the transparent test tube 71, thus fixing the egg cell storage test tube 7 to the inside of the test tube fixing bracket 5.
[0041] Furthermore, a rotating frame assembly 8 is fixedly connected above the rotating chuck 55, and the other end of the rotating frame assembly 8 passes through the sealing cover plate 3;
[0042] The sealing cover 3 includes an upper cover 31, on which a through hole 32 is provided, and the rotating frame assembly 8 extends through the through hole 32 to the top of the upper cover 31.
[0043] Furthermore, the rotating frame assembly 8 includes a connecting column 81, with a rotating knob 82 integrally provided at the top of the connecting column 81. A locking plate 83 located below the upper cover 31 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the connecting column 81, and the locking plate 83 is also provided with a positioning slot 84 corresponding to the test tube positioning slot 56.
[0044] More specifically, both ends of the locking disc 83 are provided with limiting baffles 33 that are fixedly connected to the upper cover 31, and a positioning spring plate 34 is fixedly connected to the side of the limiting baffle 33 near the locking disc 83, and the side of the positioning spring plate 34 is engaged with the positioning slot 84.
[0045] By adopting the above technical solution, the staff can rotate the rotating knob 82 to make the connecting column 81 drive the test tube fixing bracket 5 to rotate. When any oocyte storage test tube 7 on the test tube fixing bracket 5 rotates to below the oocyte collection dropper 4, the positioning spring plate 34 will be locked into the positioning slot 84 corresponding to the oocyte storage test tube 7, thereby positioning the test tube fixing bracket 5 and preventing the test tube fixing bracket 5 from shifting during the insertion of the oocyte collection dropper 4 into the oocyte storage test tube 7, which would affect normal collection.
[0046] Furthermore, the upper cover 31 is provided with a collection hole, and an egg cell collection dropper 4 is inserted into the collection hole. The end of the egg cell collection dropper 4 extends through the collection hole and the locking shell 72 into the transparent test tube 71.
[0047] The bottom of the supporting chassis 51 is integrally provided with a bottom support column 52, and the other end of the bottom support column 52 is interference-fitted with a support bearing 53. The bottom of the inner side of the insulation shell 1 is integrally provided with a positioning ring, and the outer ring of the support bearing 53 is inserted into the positioning ring, so that the test tube fixing bracket 5 can rotate inside the insulation shell 1.
[0048] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: In use, firstly, the egg cell storage tube 7 is placed on the test tube fixing bracket 5, and the bottom of the transparent test tube 71 is placed in the positioning groove 54 on the supporting base 51. Simultaneously, the top of the transparent test tube 71 is pushed into the test tube positioning groove 56 on the rotating chuck 55. The locking spring piece 57 at the end of the test tube positioning groove 56 locks the transparent test tube 71. Then, the upper cover 31 is fastened to the top of the insulation shell 1, and the upper cover 31 is fixed to the insulation shell 1 using the locking buckle 6. Above the shell 1, the egg cells are collected using an egg cell collection dropper 4. The dropper 4 is inserted through the top cover 31 and into the egg cell storage test tube 7 on the test tube fixing bracket 5. As the end of the egg cell collection dropper 4 moves downwards above the egg cell storage test tube 7, the conical groove 74 at the end of the sealing slider 73 contacts the egg cell collection dropper 4. Part of the downward pressure is converted into a force that pushes the sealing slider 73 towards the inside of the locking shell 72, causing the sealing slider 73 to move to the moving position. The inner side of the locking shell 72 and the sterile cotton 75 at the end of the sealing slider 73 will contact the surface of the egg cell collection dropper 4, thereby wiping the end of the egg cell collection dropper 4 and reducing the risk of bacteria on the surface of the egg cell collection dropper 4 entering the inside of the transparent test tube 71. Then, the egg cell collection dropper 4 is taken out, and the connecting column 81 is rotated by the rotating knob 82 to rotate the test tube fixing bracket 5. When any egg cell storage test tube 7 on the test tube fixing bracket 5 is rotated to below the egg cell collection dropper 4, the positioning spring plate 34 will be locked into the positioning slot 84 corresponding to the egg cell storage test tube 7, thereby positioning the test tube fixing bracket 5 and preventing the test tube fixing bracket 5 from shifting during the insertion of the egg cell collection dropper 4 into the egg cell storage test tube 7. Finally, the liquid nitrogen storage bottle is connected to the liquid nitrogen maintenance component connection port 2 through the pipe, and the cold air of liquid nitrogen is used to preserve the egg cells stored inside the transparent test tube 71 at low temperature. The structure is simple, the operation is very convenient, and it effectively reduces the intensity of manual labor.
