Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of urine sample storage technology, specifically to a urine sample storage device for diabetes. Background Technology

[0002] Urine samples from diabetic patients and their storage are of great significance in medical testing and research. Urine is the excretion pathway for metabolic products in the body. Due to insufficient insulin secretion or poor insulin action in diabetic patients, blood sugar control is poor, leading to significant changes in the composition of their urine. These changes can provide valuable information for clinicians, aiding in disease diagnosis, treatment monitoring, and the early detection of complications.

[0003] The storage conditions of urine samples are crucial to the accuracy of test results. The urine of diabetic patients may contain components susceptible to environmental factors, such as sugars, ketones, and proteins. If urine samples are exposed to air for extended periods or not stored at appropriate temperatures, the components in the sample may change, leading to inaccurate analytical results. Therefore, urine samples should be tested as soon as possible after collection, or stored at 2°C–8°C to prevent component degradation or bacterial growth.

[0004] The current method for storing urine samples involves placing test tubes containing urine into a storage box. The storage box is either placed in a refrigerator beforehand or has ice packs inside to maintain the temperature storage conditions for the urine samples. However, since the urine samples need to be stored at the required temperature, the storage box is opened completely to remove individual test tubes. This process causes a significant loss of internal temperature and heat exchange, resulting in the loss of cold air from the box and thus affecting the storage conditions of the urine samples still inside. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of this, the purpose of this utility model is to propose a urine sample storage device for diabetes, so as to solve the technical problem that when the storage box is opened by opening the entire lid to take out a single test tube, a large amount of internal temperature is lost and heat exchange occurs, resulting in the loss of cold air inside the box, which affects the storage conditions of the urine sample still in the box.

[0006] Based on the above objectives, this utility model provides a urine sample storage device for diabetes, used to store test tubes containing urine samples. The storage device includes a box and a guide frame disposed inside the box, wherein the guide frame forms an elliptical racetrack structure to arrange the test tubes.

[0007] The storage device also includes a rotating mechanism installed in the box, on which a support frame for carrying test tubes is provided. The rotating mechanism is used to drive the support frame to move along the elliptical track of the guide frame.

[0008] Preferably, the box body includes a bottom box frame and a box cover that is snapped onto the top opening of the bottom box frame, and the box cover has an inlet and outlet opening;

[0009] The outer wall of the bottom frame is equipped with a handle.

[0010] Preferably, a cover is hinged to the box lid, the cover is located above the inlet / outlet, and a rubber ring is provided on the lower surface of the cover.

[0011] Preferably, the guide frame includes a support panel, the support panel having an elliptical hollow center and being disposed inside the base frame;

[0012] A cover plate is fixedly installed on the guide frame, and a guide channel is opened between the guide frame and the cover plate, the guide channel forming an elliptical racetrack shape.

[0013] Preferably, the rotary mechanism includes a fixed frame disposed inside the base frame, on which a first synchronous pulley and a second synchronous pulley are rotatably disposed, and the first synchronous pulley and the second synchronous pulley are connected by a synchronous belt drive, and the support frame is arranged on the synchronous belt;

[0014] The slewing mechanism also includes a drive rod, the bottom end of which passes through the box cover and is connected to the first synchronous wheel for transmission.

[0015] Preferably, the support frame is U-shaped, and the open end of the support frame is provided with ball bearings, and the open end of the support frame is located in the guide channel and slidably connected thereto.

[0016] Preferably, the storage device further includes a rocker arm, which is disposed inside the base frame and is angled with the angle rotatably connected to the base frame.

[0017] The rocker frame has two ends: a force-bearing end and a pushing end. A top plate is provided above the pushing end of the rocker frame, and the top plate is located below the inlet / outlet. The top plate is slidably connected to the bottom box frame.

[0018] The bottom end of the drive rod passes through the first synchronous pulley and is splined to it. The bottom end of the drive rod is above the force-bearing end of the rocker frame. A spring is provided below the force-bearing end of the rocker frame to make it rock.

[0019] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0020] This invention drives the first synchronous wheel to rotate by manually turning the drive rod, which in turn controls the synchronous belt to rotate. The synchronous belt drives the support frame to move along the guide channel formed by the guide frame in an elliptical trajectory, so that the test tube containing urine is below the inlet and outlet and is finally taken out through the inlet and outlet of the box cover. This reduces the problem of excessively fast heat exchange caused by the large-area connection between the inside and outside of the box. Attached Figure Description

[0034] The outer wall of the bottom box frame 11 is provided with a handle 111.

[0035] A cover 13 is hinged to the box cover 12. The cover 13 is located above the inlet / outlet opening, and a rubber ring is provided on the lower surface of the cover 13.

[0036] The guide frame 2 includes a support panel 21, the support panel 21 has an elliptical hollow in the middle and is located inside the base frame 11;

[0037] A cover plate 23 is fixedly installed on the guide frame 2, and a guide channel 22 is opened between the guide frame 2 and the cover plate 23, the guide channel 22 forming an elliptical racetrack shape.

[0038] The rotary mechanism 3 includes a fixed frame 31 disposed inside the base frame 11. A first synchronous pulley 32 and a second synchronous pulley 33 are rotatably disposed on the fixed frame 31. The first synchronous pulley 32 and the second synchronous pulley 33 are connected by a synchronous belt drive. The support frame 4 is arranged on the synchronous belt.

[0039] The rotary mechanism 3 also includes a drive rod 34, the bottom end of which passes through the cover 12 and is connected to the first synchronous wheel 32 for transmission.

[0040] The support frame 4 is U-shaped, and the open end of the support frame 4 is provided with ball bearings. The open end of the support frame 4 is located in the guide channel 22 and is slidably connected to it.
