Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cell culture technology, and in particular to a cell culture flask holder. Background Technology

[0002] Cell culture flasks provide a growth environment similar to that in vivo for cells cultured in vitro. They not only provide the necessary culture medium containers for cells, but also ensure that cells grow in a relatively stable and controllable temperature, humidity and gas environment.

[0003] Existing cell culture flask racks are all in a fixed state during use, resulting in a limited number of cell culture flasks that can be stored. They lack manual retraction and sealing mechanisms. On the one hand, the fixed racks cannot be adjusted according to the culture flasks, leading to insufficient space utilization and an inability to maximize the storage capacity. On the other hand, the lack of sealing mechanisms makes it impossible to effectively control the culture environment, increasing the risk of contamination and affecting cell growth conditions and the reproducibility of experiments.

[0004] To address the above issues, we have developed a cell culture flask holder. Utility Model Content

[0005] This utility model discloses a cell culture flask holder, which aims to solve the technical problem of lacking a manual telescopic mechanism and a sealing mechanism.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] A cell culture flask rack includes an incubator, five storage slots, a manual telescopic mechanism, and a sealing mechanism. The five storage slots are all located inside the incubator. The manual telescopic mechanism is located inside the incubator to allow for the efficient arrangement and placement of more culture flasks within a limited laboratory space. The sealing mechanism is located on one side of the incubator to prevent external contaminants from entering the rack and the inside of the culture flasks, thus maintaining a sterile environment.

[0008] The incubator provides a complete storage structure, ensuring environmental controllability. The multiple storage compartments facilitate the classification and management of multiple culture flasks. The manual telescopic mechanism allows for flexible adjustment of the rack position within a compact space, achieving higher space utilization efficiency. The sealing mechanism effectively isolates external contamination, maintaining the sterile environment necessary for cell culture and improving the accuracy and reliability of experiments.

[0009] In a preferred embodiment, the manual telescopic mechanism includes a sliding groove, a threaded rod, a sliding block, a support frame, two bracket bodies, and a hand crank. The sliding groove is formed at the bottom of the inner wall of the storage slot. The threaded rod is rotatably connected to the inside of the sliding groove. The sliding block is threadedly connected to the outside of the threaded rod and slidably connected to the sliding groove. The support frame is fixedly connected to the top of the sliding block and slidably connected to the inner wall of the storage slot. The two bracket bodies are respectively fixedly connected to the two sides of the top of the support frame. One end of the threaded rod extends to the outside of the storage slot and is fixedly connected to the hand crank.

[0010] By setting up a linkage between the threaded rod and the sliding block, the support frame and the bracket body can be smoothly expanded and contracted. Manual adjustment is simple and accurate, which improves the flexibility and ease of use of the bracket body and allows experimental personnel to adjust the layout as needed.

[0011] In a preferred embodiment, the sealing mechanism includes two side grooves, two connecting rods, two connecting blocks, a sealing door, a rack, a motor, and a gear. The two side grooves are respectively formed at the top and bottom of one side of the incubator. The two connecting rods are respectively fixedly connected to the inside of the corresponding side grooves. The two connecting blocks are respectively slidably connected to the outside of the corresponding connecting rods. The sealing door is fixedly connected between one side of the two connecting blocks. The rack is fixedly connected to the top of one side of the sealing door. The motor is fixedly connected to the top of the incubator. The gear is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the motor, and the gear meshes with the rack.

[0012] This mechanism controls the opening and closing of the sealed door by using a combination of gears and racks driven by a motor, achieving automated and tight sealing. It has good operability and protection, ensuring a sterile experimental environment and reducing the risk of contamination caused by human factors.

[0013] In a preferred embodiment, a temperature detector is fixedly connected to the top of the inner wall of the incubator, and a temperature controller is fixedly connected to one side of the incubator, with the output end of the temperature controller extending into the interior of the storage tank.

[0014] By setting a temperature detector to monitor the culture environment temperature in real time, and a temperature controller to regulate and maintain the temperature, the culture process is kept within the optimal temperature control range, ensuring the normal growth of cells and improving the success rate and reproducibility of experiments.

[0015] In a preferred embodiment, a control panel is fixedly connected to the outside of the sealed door, and the motor, temperature detector, and temperature controller are all electrically connected to the control panel.

[0016] The control panel integrates the operation of motors and temperature control equipment, providing a simple and intuitive control interface that allows users to operate and manage the entire system precisely, thereby improving work efficiency.

[0017] In a preferred embodiment, T-shaped limiting strips are fixedly connected to the bottom of the inner wall of the storage groove and to both sides of the sliding groove, and the support frame is slidably connected to the corresponding limiting strip.

[0018] By setting limit strips on both sides of the sliding groove, the support frame is guided to slide correctly, ensuring stability and safety, preventing misalignment and shaking, and maintaining the reliability and stability of the bracket operation.

[0019] In a preferred embodiment, an anti-slip pad is fixedly connected to the top of each bracket body.

[0020] The anti-slip pads on the top of the rack body provide effective friction, preventing culture flasks from sliding or tipping over during rack operation, protecting experimental materials and reducing accidental losses.

[0021] The cell culture flask holder provided by this utility model has the following advantages:

[0022] In this invention, the cell culture flask holder utilizes a manual telescopic mechanism and a sealing mechanism during use. On the one hand, the manual telescopic mechanism can be adjusted according to the size of the culture flask, thereby maximizing the use of space, accommodating more culture flasks, and reducing the risk of tipping and sliding during operation or movement. On the other hand, the sealing mechanism helps maintain a stable temperature in the culture environment, creating more ideal cell growth conditions and reducing the risk of contamination. Compared with traditional devices, this invention greatly improves the quality of operation and efficiency of use. Attached Figure Description
