Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical device technology, specifically a biomedical sample storage device with a protective structure. Background Technology

[0002] Biomedical samples refer to various samples collected in biological and medical research. These samples originate from organisms and contain rich biological information, which is of great significance for understanding life processes, disease mechanisms, drug development, and genetic research. In the process of collecting samples for medical testing, test tubes are commonly used for collection. The test tubes containing the samples are then placed in test tube racks for storage, and the collected samples are then subjected to medical testing.

[0003] The existing patent publication number CN222642055U discloses a sample storage device for medical testing. By setting the traditional test tube placement position into an elastic placement position with a frustum structure that is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom, it is possible to place test tubes of different sizes with good fastening effect. By setting a center of gravity component at the bottom of the test tube, the test tube has a self-righting structure, which can effectively prevent it from tipping over and has good protection.

[0004] In the aforementioned patent, the size of the socket is fixed. When the diameter of the test tube is small, it cannot be restrained within the socket, causing the test tube to tilt when placed, making it unstable. Furthermore, the test tube is usually made of glass, making it difficult to modify the bottom of the test tube. At the same time, its protective effect is poor, and if the storage device is dropped on the ground, it is very easy for the inner test tube to break, resulting in loss. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a biomedical sample storage device with a protective structure to solve the problems mentioned in the background art, such as the inability to limit the position of the test tube when the diameter of the test tube is small, resulting in the test tube tilting and instability when placed, and the fact that the test tube is usually made of glass, making it difficult to modify the bottom of the test tube, and the poor protective effect, which makes it very easy for the inner test tube to break and cause loss if the storage device is dropped on the ground.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a biomedical sample storage device with a protective structure, comprising a support frame, with placement openings equidistantly spaced at the top of the support frame, a limiting component movably installed inside the placement openings, a protective component fixedly installed on the inner side of the support frame, and a top cover movably installed on the top of the support frame; the limiting component includes a retaining ring, a limiting piece fixedly connected to the inner side of the retaining ring, and a protective sleeve covering the outer side of the limiting piece; the protective component includes a side baffle fixedly installed inside the support frame, the side baffle being positioned directly below the placement openings, a supporting sleeve fixedly connected to the bottom of the inner side of the side baffle, a protective airbag fixedly connected to the inner side of the side baffle, an air tube fixedly installed inside the support frame, a branch pipe connected to the air tube fixedly connected to the bottom of the protective airbag, an inflatable bladder fixedly connected to the end of the air tube, and an air valve fixedly installed at the end of the air tube.

[0007] Preferably, the limiting piece and the retaining ring are integrally formed, and multiple limiting pieces are arranged in a ring at equal intervals inside the retaining ring, with the multiple limiting pieces arranged obliquely.

[0008] Preferably, the protective sleeve is made of nylon and is adhesively attached to the outside of the limiting piece.

[0009] Preferably, the diameter of the side baffle is larger than that of the placement opening, and the support sleeve is located directly below the placement opening.

[0010] Preferably, the protective airbag is adhesively disposed on the inner side of the side baffle.

[0011] Preferably, the top cover includes a cover plate, which is movably hinged to the top of the support frame. A sponge pad is provided inside the cover plate, and a groove is provided at the bottom of the sponge pad. A buckle is fixedly connected to the front side of the cover plate.

[0012] Preferably, the groove corresponds to the placement opening, and the buckle is engaged with the outside of the support frame.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0014] 1. Insert the test tube above the placement opening, making contact with the protective sleeve. This pushes the limiting plate to bend, creating an elastic force to clamp the test tube and restrict its position. Compress the air bladder, inflating it through the air tube and branch tube. The test tube extends inside the side baffle, with its bottom positioned above the support sleeve. The protective air bladder encloses the test tube, ensuring stable storage.

[0015] 2. In the event of a drop, the protective airbag provides a certain elastic clamping force when the test tube is inserted, enhancing the stability of the test tube. The deformation of the protective airbag, combined with the deformation of the limiting plate, can provide cushioning, thereby improving the protective effect on the test tube.

Detailed Implementation

[0022] 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.

[0023] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5This utility model provides a technical solution: a biomedical sample storage device with a protective structure, including a support frame 1, with placement openings 2 equidistantly spaced on the top of the support frame 1, a limiting component 3 movably installed inside the placement openings 2, a protective component 4 fixedly installed on the inner side of the support frame 1, and a top cover 5 movably installed on the top of the support frame 1; the limiting component 3 includes a retaining ring 31, a limiting piece 32 fixedly connected to the inner side of the retaining ring 31, and a protective sleeve 33 covering the outer side of the limiting piece 32; the protective component 4 includes a side baffle 41 fixedly installed on the inner side of the support frame 1, the side baffle 41 being positioned directly below the placement openings 2, a supporting sleeve 42 fixedly connected to the bottom of the inner side of the side baffle 41, and a protective airbag 43 fixedly connected to the inner side of the side baffle 41. An air tube 44 is fixedly installed inside the support frame 1. A branch pipe 45 connected to the air tube 44 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the protective airbag 43. An inflatable bladder 46 is fixedly connected to the end of the air tube 44. An air valve 47 is fixedly installed at the end of the air tube 44. When the test tube is inserted into the upper part of the placement port 2, its wall surface contacts the protective sleeve 33, pushing the limiting plate 32 to bend outward and deform. The elastic force generated by the deformation of the limiting plate 32 clamps the test tube from the outside, restricting its position in the placement port 2. By compressing the inflatable bladder 46, air is inflated into the protective airbag 43 through the air tube 44 and the branch pipe 45. The test tube extends into the inside of the side baffle 41, with its bottom located above the support sleeve 42. The protective airbag 43 wraps around the test tube from the outside, ensuring its storage stability.

[0024] The limiting piece 32 and the retaining ring 31 are integrally formed. Multiple limiting pieces 32 are arranged in a ring and are equidistantly located inside the retaining ring 31. The multiple limiting pieces 32 are arranged at an angle. When the test tube is inserted, the limiting piece 32 can effectively contact the test tube wall and gradually bend and deform outward as the test tube is inserted, which increases the contact area between the test tube and the limiting piece 32, improves the stability of clamping, and makes the insertion and removal of the test tube smoother, reducing friction and resistance. In addition, the angled arrangement of the limiting piece 32 can also play a guiding role to a certain extent, guiding the test tube to be correctly aligned with the placement port 2.

[0025] The protective sleeve 33 is made of nylon and is bonded to the outside of the limiting piece 32. The choice of nylon material gives the protective sleeve 33 good wear resistance and corrosion resistance, which can effectively resist the wear and chemical corrosion that may be encountered in daily use, and extend the service life of the entire storage device. The nylon material also has a certain degree of elasticity, which allows the protective sleeve 33 to better conform to the deformation of the limiting piece 32 when the test tube is inserted and removed, further enhancing the stability of clamping and the protection of the test tube.

[0026] The side baffle 41 has a diameter larger than the placement opening 2, and the support sleeve 42 is located directly below the placement opening 2. The side baffle 41 can effectively prevent the test tube from moving laterally in the storage device, ensuring the stability of the test tube during storage. The support sleeve 42 provides support for the bottom of the test tube. The support sleeve 42 is preferably made of an elastic material, such as silicone or rubber, which can provide good support and buffer external impacts to a certain extent, further protecting the sample inside the test tube from damage. The support sleeve 42 is located directly below the placement opening 2, ensuring that the test tube can be accurately placed in the predetermined position when inserted, improving the convenience and accuracy of operation.

[0027] The protective airbag 43 is bonded to the inside of the side baffle 41. The protective airbag 43 is made of a soft and elastic material, which can quickly absorb and disperse the impact force when the test tube is subjected to external impact, effectively reducing the risk of damage to the test tube and the sample inside. The setting of the protective airbag 43 also makes the test tube easier to insert and remove, reducing friction and resistance, and improving the convenience of operation.

[0028] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 5 The top cover 5 includes a cover plate 51, which is movably hinged to the top of the support frame 1. A sponge pad 52 is provided inside the cover plate 51, and a groove 53 is provided at the bottom of the sponge pad 52. A buckle 54 is fixedly connected to the front side of the cover plate 51. By rotating the cover plate 51, the buckle 54 is fixed to the outside of the support frame 1. The sponge pad 52 inside the cover plate 51 is placed on the test tube cap, and the test tube cap is placed in the groove 53. The elasticity of the sponge pad 52 positions the test tube from above, improving the protective effect.

[0029] The groove 53 corresponds to the position of the placement opening 2, and the buckle 54 is locked on the outside of the support frame 1. When the cover 51 is closed, the buckle 54 can securely lock the cover 51 on the support frame 1 to prevent the cover 51 from opening accidentally. The groove 53 facilitates the placement of the test tube cap and ensures that the test tube cap will not slip or shift during storage.

[0030] Working principle: By inserting the test tube from above the placement port 2, the test tube wall contacts the protective sleeve 33, causing the limiting piece 32 to deform from the inside out. The restoring force generated by the deformation of the limiting piece 32 clamps the test tube inside the placement port 2 from the outside. By squeezing the inflation bladder 46, air is injected into the protective air bladder 43 through the air tube 44 and branch tube 45, causing the protective air bladder 43 to expand. The test tube extends into the inside of the side baffle 41, with its bottom positioned above the support sleeve 42. The protective air bladder 43 then expands from the outside. The test tubes are wrapped from the outside to ensure storage stability. When full, the hinged cover 51 can be rotated along the top of the support frame 1 to engage the buckle 54 on the outside of the support frame 1. The sponge pad 52 inside the cover 51 is positioned above the test tube cap, which is located in the groove 53. The elasticity of the sponge pad 52 limits the test tube from the top. In the event of a drop, the deformation of the protective airbag 43 and the deformation of the limiting piece 32 provide cushioning, thereby improving the protection of the test tubes.

[0031] The above is the entire working process of the device, and all contents not described in detail in this specification are existing technologies known to those skilled in the art.

[0032] 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.
