[0026] A movable mounting plate 27 is provided on the outside of the tank body 1. A water tank 17 is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the movable mounting plate 27.

The indicator panel 24 and the temperature sensor 23 are connected by a signal.
[0027] Specifically, a movable mounting plate 27 is fixedly installed on the outer side of the tank body 1. A water pump 18 is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the movable mounting plate 27. A first delivery pipe 20 is provided inside the water pump 18. One end of the first delivery pipe 20 is connected to the inside of the water tank 17, and the other end is connected to the inside of the tank body 1. A return pump 19 is fixedly installed on the lower surface of the movable mounting plate 27. A second delivery pipe 21 is provided inside the return pump 19. One end of the second delivery pipe 21 is connected to the inside of the water tank 17, and the other end is connected to the inside of the tank body 1. A temperature sensor 23 is movably installed on the upper end of the water tank 17. An indicator panel 24, a first control button 25, and a second control button 26 are sequentially installed on one side of the water tank 17. The water tank 17 has multiple heating tubes 22 installed inside. The temperature sensor 23 is connected to the indicator panel 24. The first control button 25 controls the heating tubes 22. A motor 2 is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the tank 1. The output shaft of the motor 2 is fixedly connected to a rotating shaft 3. A sleeve block 5 is sleeved at the bottom end of the rotating shaft 3. Multiple fan blades 6 are movably installed on the outside of the sleeve block 5. A connecting plate 41 is installed at the upper end of the multiple fan blades 6. The connecting plate 41 is fixedly installed on the outside of the rotating shaft 3. One end of multiple springs 42 is fixedly connected inside the connecting plate 41. The other end of the multiple springs 42 is fixedly connected to a mounting plate 28. Multiple clamping plates 8 are fixedly installed on the upper surface of the mounting plate 28. Guide posts 10 are slidably connected inside each of the multiple clamping plates 8. One end of each guide post 10 is fixedly equipped with a clamping block 13, and the other end of each guide post 10 is fixedly connected to an adjusting handle 16. The clamping block 13 is made of flexible material. One end of each clamping block 13 contacts the cryopreservation tube body 7, and the other end of each clamping block 13 slides in contact with a fixing plate 15. One end of each fixing plate 15 is fixedly connected to a spring 42, and the other end of each spring 42 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the clamping plate 8. A spring 11 is provided on the outer side of the guide post 10, and a sliding groove 9 is provided inside the clamping plate 8. The spring 11 is located inside the sliding groove 9 at the beginning of the clamping plate 8. One end of each spring 11 is fixedly connected to one end of a disc 12, and the other end of each spring 11 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the sliding groove 9. The disc 12 is sleeved on the guide post 10. On the outside, the operator first places the cells to be thawed into the cryovial body 7. The operator then pulls the adjusting handle 16, which causes the guide column 10 to reciprocate horizontally within the clamping plate 8. The guide column 10 moves the disc 12, which in turn moves the spring 11. The spring 11 deforms under tension, causing the guide column 10 to move the clamping block 13, which is fixed at one end, to reciprocate horizontally. During this movement, the clamping block 13 slides into contact with the fixing plate 15. The fixing plate 15 is compressed, causing the spring 14 to deform under pressure. This allows the fixing plate 15 to limit the position of the clamping block 13. After placing the cryovial body 7 on one side of the clamping block 13, the operator pushes back the guide column 10.The elastic force generated by the tension of spring 11 drives the guide post 10 and clamping block 13 through the disc 12 to quickly and smoothly clamp the outside of the cryopreservation tube body 7. The multiple clamping devices effectively increase the number of cryopreservation tube bodies 7 that can be thawed at once, enabling simultaneous thawing of multiple cryopreservation tube bodies 7, making operation convenient and facilitating batch thawing of cells. The heating tube 22 inside the water tank 17 heats the sterile water inside. The first control button 25 controls the heating tube 22. The temperature sensor 23 detects the temperature of the sterile water inside the water tank 17 and transmits the signal to the indicator panel 24. When the sterile water reaches the appropriate temperature, the operator starts the water pump 18 and the return pump 19 respectively. The water pump 18 and the return pump 19 are existing devices; reference can be made to the R300-1000PC water pump 18 and the CY-DCY-12YL return pump 19. The working principle of pump 19 is existing technology and will not be elaborated here. Pump 18 and pump 19 circulate sterile water into the interior of tank 1 through delivery pipe 20 and delivery pipe 21, respectively. Simultaneously, they work with heating pipe 22 to keep the sterile water in motion, ensuring uniform water temperature distribution, improving the consistency of resuscitation temperature, and enhancing cell activity. Next, the operator starts motor 2. Motor 2 is an existing device; refer to Y-series motor 2. The working principle of Y-series motor 2 is existing technology and will not be elaborated here. The output of motor 2 drives shaft 3 to rotate, which in turn drives socket 41 to rotate. Socket 41, through spring 42, causes multiple clamping devices to sway. Simultaneously, shaft 3 drives bottom sleeve 5 to rotate, which in turn drives fan blades 6 in a circular motion. Fan blades 6 stir the sterile water inside tank 1, causing it to float up and down, thus mixing the frozen cells inside cryopreservation tube 7 and accelerating cell resuscitation efficiency.
[0028] like Figure 5 As shown, a spring 11 is provided on the outer side of the guide post 10, and a groove 9 is provided inside the clamping disk 8. The spring 11 is located inside the groove 9. One end of the spring 11 is fixedly connected to one end of the disk 12, and the other end of the spring 11 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the groove 9.
[0029] Specifically, the operator pulls the adjustment handle 16, which causes the guide column 10 to reciprocate horizontally inside the clamping plate 8. The guide column 10 drives the disc 12 to move, and the disc 12 drives the spring 11 to move. The spring 11 deforms under tension, and the guide column 10 drives the clamping block 13, which is fixed at one end, to reciprocate horizontally. When the clamping block 13 moves, it slides into contact with the fixing plate 15. The fixing plate 15 is compressed, which drives the spring 14. The spring 14 deforms under the compression force, so the position of the clamping block 13 can be limited by the fixing plate 15. After the operator places the cryopreservation tube body 7 on one side of the clamping block 13, he pushes the guide column 10 back. The elastic force generated by the tension of the spring 11 drives the guide column 10 and the clamping block 13 through the disc 12 to quickly and smoothly clamp the outside of the cryopreservation tube body 7.
[0030] like Figures 1 to 2 As shown, one end of the first conveying pipe 20 and the second conveying pipe 21 are respectively connected to a water tank 17, and the other end of the first conveying pipe 20 and the second conveying pipe 21 are respectively connected to a barrel body 1.
[0031] Specifically, the pump 18 and the return pump 19 circulate sterile water into the interior of the tank 1 through the first delivery pipe 20 and the second delivery pipe 21, respectively. At the same time, they work in conjunction with the heating pipe 22 to keep the sterile water in motion, so that the overall water temperature is evenly distributed, improving the consistency of the resuscitation temperature and enhancing cell activity.
[0032] like Figure 3 As shown, a temperature sensor 23 is installed at the upper end of the water tank 17, and an indicator panel 24 is installed on one side of the water tank 17. A first control button 25 and a second control button 26 are respectively installed on one side of the indicator panel 24. The indicator panel 24 and the temperature sensor 23 are connected by a signal.
[0033] Specifically, the heating element 22 inside the water tank 17 heats the sterile water inside, the first control button 25 controls the heating element 22, and the temperature sensor 23 detects the temperature of the sterile water inside the water tank 17 and transmits the signal to the indicator panel 24. Thus, the temperature of the sterile water can be controlled through the indicator panel 24 and the first control button 25.
[0034] Working principle: First, the operator places the cells to be thawed into the cryovial body 7. The operator then pulls the adjustment handle 16, which causes the guide column 10 to reciprocate horizontally within the clamping plate 8. The guide column 10 moves the disc 12, which in turn moves the spring 11. The spring 11 deforms under tension, causing the clamping block 13, which is fixed at one end, to reciprocate horizontally. During this movement, the clamping block 13 slides against the fixing plate 15, causing the fixing plate 15 to be compressed and thus driving the spring 14 to deform under pressure. This allows the fixing plate 15 to limit the position of the clamping block 13. After the operator places the cryopreservation tube body 7 on one side of the clamping block 13, they push back the guide post 10. The elastic force generated by the tension of the spring 11 drives the guide post 10 and the clamping block 13 through the disc 12 to quickly and smoothly clamp the outside of the cryopreservation tube body 7. The multiple clamping devices effectively increase the number of cryopreservation tube bodies 7 that can be thawed at one time, thus enabling the simultaneous thawing of multiple cryopreservation tube bodies 7, making the operation more convenient and facilitating batch thawing of cells. The heating tube 22 inside the water tank 17 heats the sterile water inside. The first control button 25 controls the heating tube 22. The temperature sensor 23 detects the temperature of the sterile water inside the water tank 17 and transmits the signal. On the indicator panel 24, after the sterile water is heated to a suitable temperature, the operator starts the water pump 18 and the return pump 19 respectively. The water pump 18 and the return pump 19 are existing devices, and can be referenced to the R300-1000PC water pump 18 and the CY-DCY-12YL return pump 19. The working principles of the R300-1000PC water pump 18 and the CY-DCY-12YL return pump 19 are existing technologies and will not be elaborated upon here. The water pump 18 and the return pump 19 circulate the sterile water into the interior of the tank 1 through the first delivery pipe 20 and the second delivery pipe 21 respectively. Simultaneously, they work in conjunction with the heating pipe 22, thus keeping the sterile water in a state of motion, ensuring the entire system... The uniform distribution of body water temperature improves the consistency of resuscitation temperature and enhances cell activity. Next, the operator starts motor 2. Motor 2 is an existing device; refer to Y-series motor 2. The working principle of Y-series motor 2 is existing technology and will not be elaborated here. The output end of motor 2 drives the rotating shaft 3 to rotate, which in turn drives the connecting plate 41 to rotate. The connecting plate 41, through spring 42, drives multiple sets of clamping devices to sway. Simultaneously, the rotating shaft 3 drives the bottom sleeve block 5 to rotate, which in turn drives the fan blade 6 to perform circular motion. The fan blade 6 stirs the sterile water inside the tank 1, thus achieving up-and-down floating, stirring and mixing the frozen cells inside the cryopreservation tube body 7, accelerating cell resuscitation efficiency.
