Description

A tray for storing experimental samples Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical device testing equipment technology, specifically a tray for storing experimental samples. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of medical device testing equipment, sample analyzers are used to test samples such as blood. A sample analyzer typically includes a sample storage rack, reagent processing device, and testing device. The sample storage rack is an indispensable component of the sample analyzer, and the sample tray is an indispensable component of the sample storage rack. To achieve automatic or semi-automatic operation of the sample analyzer, samples from the storage rack need to be delivered to the analyzer's gripping point. However, existing sample trays make it difficult to retrieve the required sample tubes when the test tube racks are densely packed. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a tray for experimental sample storage racks that facilitates the retrieval of test tubes. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to address the above-mentioned shortcomings by providing a tray for storing experimental samples that can both densely store test tube racks and facilitate the retrieval of the required test tube racks.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0005] A tray for storing experimental samples includes an annular plate, multiple partition blocks arranged radially on the annular plate with the axis of the annular plate as the center, multiple tube rack slots formed between adjacent partition blocks and the annular plate, the multiple tube rack slots being distributed radially outward with the axis of the annular plate as the center, and the two ends of the tube rack slots connecting the inner and outer arc surfaces of the annular plate.

[0006] Furthermore, the bottom of the partition block is vertically provided with multiple buckles, and the annular plate is provided with locking holes opposite the buckles. The partition block is detachably connected to the annular plate by engaging the buckles with the locking holes.

[0007] Furthermore, the buckle includes multiple arc-shaped clips fixedly connected to the top of the dividing block. The bottom end of the arc-shaped clips extends to the bottom of the clip hole and is provided with an arc-shaped clip block. The bottom surface of the arc-shaped clip block is provided with an arc-shaped abutment surface. The outer diameter of the arc-shaped clip block is larger than that of the arc-shaped clips, and the outer diameter of the arc-shaped abutment surface gradually decreases from top to bottom.

[0008] Furthermore, the outer diameter of the arc-shaped card block is larger than that of the arc-shaped card strip, and the outer diameter of the arc-shaped contact surface gradually decreases from top to bottom.

[0009] Furthermore, the width of the outer end of the tube rack groove is smaller than the width of the inner end.

[0010] Furthermore, the separator block is provided with multiple reagent tube holes.

[0011] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0012] In practical applications, multiple tube rack slots formed between adjacent partition blocks and the annular plate allow each tray to accommodate multiple test tube racks. By engaging the test tube racks through the tube rack slots, the robotic arm or shuttle of the sample storage rack can access any desired test tube rack from the inside of the annular plate, making access more convenient. This invention not only enables dense storage of test tube racks but also facilitates the removal of the required sample test tube racks. Attached Figure Description

[0018] As shown in Figures 1, 2, 3 and 4, a tray for storing experimental samples includes an annular plate 21, and multiple partition blocks 22 radially arranged on the annular plate 21 with the axis of the annular plate 21 as the center. Multiple tube rack slots 23 are formed between adjacent partition blocks 22 and the annular plate 21. The multiple tube rack slots 23 are distributed radially outward with the axis of the annular plate 21 as the center. The two ends of the tube rack slots 23 are connected to the inner arc surface and the outer arc surface of the annular plate 21.

[0019] In use, the multiple tube rack slots 23 formed between the adjacent partition blocks 22 and the annular plate 21 allow each tray to hold multiple test tube racks. The test tube racks are engaged by the tube rack slots 23, and the robotic arm or shuttle of the sample storage rack can access any required test tube rack from the inside of the annular plate 21, making access more convenient. This utility model can not only provide dense storage for test tube racks, but also facilitate the removal of the required sample test tube racks.

[0020] As shown in Figures 1, 2, 3, and 4, the bottom of the partition block 22 is vertically provided with multiple buckles 24, and the annular plate 21 is provided with locking holes 211 opposite to the buckles 24. The partition block 22 is detachably connected to the annular plate 21 by the buckles 24 engaging the locking holes 211. In this embodiment, the partition block 22 is detachably connected to the annular plate 21 by the buckles 24 engaging the locking holes 211.

[0021] As shown in Figures 1, 2, 3, and 4, the buckle 24 includes multiple arc-shaped clips 241 with their top ends fixedly connected to the divider block 22. The bottom ends of the arc-shaped clips 241 extend to below the clip hole 211 and are provided with arc-shaped clip blocks 242. The bottom surface of the arc-shaped clip blocks 242 is provided with an arc-shaped abutment surface 2421. The outer diameter of the arc-shaped clip blocks 242 is larger than that of the arc-shaped clips 241, and the outer diameter of the arc-shaped abutment surface 2421 gradually decreases from top to bottom. In this embodiment, when installing the divider block 22, the arc-shaped abutment surface 2421 at the bottom of the arc-shaped clip block 242 is first inserted into the clip hole 211, and the divider block 22 is pressed down until the arc-shaped clip block 242 is engaged below the clip hole 211.

[0022] As shown in Figures 1, 2, 3, and 4, the outer diameter of the arc-shaped locking block 242 is larger than that of the arc-shaped locking strip 241, and the outer diameter of the arc-shaped abutting surface 2421 gradually decreases from top to bottom. In this embodiment, when the outer diameter of the arc-shaped locking block 242 is larger than that of the arc-shaped locking strip 241, the partition block 22 is less likely to fall off after being locked. When the outer diameter of the arc-shaped abutting surface 2421 gradually decreases from top to bottom, the arc-shaped locking block 242 is easier to lock into the lower part of the locking hole 211.

[0023] As shown in Figures 1, 2, 3 and 4, the width of the outer end of the tube rack groove 23 is smaller than the width of the inner end. In this embodiment, when the width of the outer end of the tube rack groove 23 is smaller than the width of the inner end, when the robotic arm or shuttle of the sample storage rack pushes the test tube rack from the inside of the annular plate 21, the test tube rack is less likely to be pushed out from the outer edge of the annular plate 21.

[0024] As shown in Figures 1, 2, 3 and 4, the partition block 22 is provided with a plurality of reagent tube holes 221; in this embodiment, the reagent tube holes 221 enable the partition block 22 to hold reagent tubes, making the tray more adaptable.

[0025] The specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative examples of this utility model. Those skilled in the art to which this utility model pertains may make various modifications or additions to the described specific embodiments or use similar methods to replace them, without departing from the scope defined by this utility model.
