Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of biotechnology, and in particular to a cell storage, protection and extraction device. Background Technology

[0002] In the modern biomedical field, cell storage and extraction technology is a crucial foundation for cell therapy, biological sample preservation, and regenerative medicine research. During cell storage, environmental conditions, such as temperature and humidity, must be strictly controlled to ensure that cell viability and function are not impaired. Most existing cell storage and extraction devices use simple storage boxes. When retrieving cells, operators must manually open the container and locate the desired cells inside. This method is not only cumbersome but also prone to introducing external contamination, affecting cell viability. Therefore, this invention proposes a cell storage and extraction device. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to address the problem that most cell storage and extraction devices in the background technology use simple storage boxes for storage. When taking out or taking out cells, the operator needs to manually open the container and search for the cells to be taken out inside the box. This method is not only cumbersome to operate, but also easy to introduce external contamination and affect cell activity. Therefore, this invention proposes a cell storage and extraction device.

[0004] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows: A cell storage, protection, and extraction device, comprising: a storage cylinder for storing cells, a fixed base fixedly disposed on the upper surface of the storage cylinder, and a sealing plug rotatably sleeved on the outer wall of the fixed base; a first motor fixedly disposed on the bottom surface of the storage cylinder, the output end of the first motor penetrating the storage cylinder and extending to a base fixedly disposed inside; a plurality of guide components for limiting positioning fixedly disposed on the upper surface of the base, a sealing cover being disposed in communication with the outer wall of the storage cylinder, and a lifting component for pushing the guide components to move vertically up and down on the sealing cover.

[0005] Optionally, the guide assembly includes a fixing ring fixedly disposed on the upper surface of the chassis, a support rod fixedly disposed at the upper end of the fixing ring, a guide groove opened on one side of the support rod, a guide block slidably disposed in the guide groove, and a fixing cylinder fixedly disposed at one end of the guide block.

[0006] Optionally, the lifting assembly includes a second motor fixedly mounted on the bottom surface of the sealing cover. The output end of the second motor passes through the sealing cover and extends to be connected to a threaded rod. The upper end of the threaded rod is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the sealing cover. A threaded sleeve block is threadedly fitted onto the outer wall of the threaded rod. A lifting plate is fixedly mounted on one side of the threaded sleeve block.

[0007] Optionally, a base is fixedly provided on the bottom surface of the storage cylinder.

[0008] Optionally, a cooling plate is fixedly installed on the inner top surface of the storage cylinder.

[0009] Optionally, a torsion spring is fitted onto the mounting base.

[0010] Optionally, a set of guide rods is provided through the outer wall of the fixed cylinder. One end of the guide rod is fixedly connected to a limit plate, and the limit plate is located inside the fixed cylinder. The other end of the guide rod is fixedly connected to a limit block. A spring is sleeved on the outer wall of the limit plate. One end of the spring is fixedly connected to a fixed ring, and the other end of the spring is fixedly connected to the limit block.

[0011] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0012] This invention utilizes a linkage structure between a guiding component and a lifting component. The fixed cylinder in the guiding component can slide within the guiding groove, while the lifting component, driven by a second motor, rotates the threaded rod, causing the threaded sleeve block and the lifting plate to move up and down. This, in turn, propels the entire guiding component to move vertically. Without requiring operators to manually search within the storage cylinder, the fixed cylinder containing the corresponding cells can be precisely lifted to a position that facilitates retrieval and placement. This avoids collisions or contamination of cell containers caused by manual searching, significantly improving the efficiency and safety of cell extraction while reducing the workload of operators.

[0013] Furthermore, this utility model uses a combination structure of guide rod, limiting plate, limiting block and spring to place the cell container into the fixed cylinder. The cell container squeezes the limiting plate, and the spring resets and pushes the limiting plate to fit tightly against the outer wall of the cell container, thus achieving a stable clamping of the cell container. This ensures that the cells will not be damaged by shaking or collision during storage, and effectively avoids extraction difficulties and operational errors caused by the displacement of the cell container.

[0029] Example

[0030] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the present invention proposes a cell storage, protection, and extraction device, comprising: a storage cylinder 1 for storing cells, wherein the upper surface of the storage cylinder 1 is provided with a storage hole for easy placement and removal of cell containers; a base 9 is fixedly provided on the bottom surface of the storage cylinder 1 to stably support the storage cylinder 1; a cooling plate 10 is fixedly provided on the inner top surface of the storage cylinder 1 (the cooling plate 10 is prior art and will not be described in detail here); the cooling plate 10 has a temperature control module that can control the cooling temperature of the cooling plate 10 to store cells at a suitable temperature; a sealing cover 7 is provided on the outer wall of the storage cylinder 1 and is integrally formed with the storage cylinder 1; a fixing seat 2 is fixedly provided on the upper surface of the storage cylinder 1; a torsion spring 11 is sleeved on the fixing seat 2; a sealing plug 3 is rotatably sleeved on the outer wall of the fixing seat 2 and is inserted into the storage hole; the torsion spring 11 provides elastic force to seal and block the storage hole with the sealing plug 3.

[0031] Furthermore, a first motor 4 is fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the storage cylinder 1, and the first motor 4 has a control module. The output end of the first motor 4 passes through the storage cylinder 1 and extends to the inside where a base 5 is fixedly installed. The first motor 4 can drive the base 5 to rotate stably by controlling the motor, thereby moving the guide component 6 to directly below the storage hole.

[0032] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, multiple sets of guide components 6 for limiting the position are fixedly installed on the upper surface of the chassis 5. The guide component 6 includes a fixing ring 61 fixedly installed on the upper surface of the chassis 5. A support rod 62 is fixedly installed at the upper end of the fixing ring 61. A guide groove 63 is opened on one side of the support rod 62. A guide block 64 is slidably installed in the guide groove 63, which enables the guide block 64 to move stably with the direction of the guide groove 63. A fixing cylinder 65 is fixedly installed at one end of the guide block 64, which can guide the fixing cylinder 65 and make it move stably.

[0033] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the sealing cover 7 is provided with a lifting component 8 for pushing the guide component 6 to move vertically up and down. The lifting component 8 includes a second motor 81 fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the sealing cover 7. The output end of the second motor 81 passes through the sealing cover 7 and extends to be connected to a threaded rod 82. The upper end of the threaded rod 82 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the sealing cover 7. The second motor 81 can drive the threaded rod 82 to rotate stably inside the sealing cover 7. A threaded sleeve block 83 is threadedly sleeved on the outer wall of the threaded rod 82. Since the threaded sleeve block 83 is threadedly engaged with the threaded rod 82, the threaded rod 82 can drive the threaded sleeve block 83 to move vertically up and down when rotating. A lifting plate 84 is fixedly installed on one side of the threaded sleeve block 83. The threaded sleeve block 83 drives the lifting plate 84 to push the fixed cylinder 65 to move vertically upward. The cell container inside the fixed cylinder 65 also moves accordingly.

[0034] Furthermore, a set of guide rods 12 are provided through the outer wall of the fixed cylinder 65, and the guide rods 12 are symmetrically arranged. One end of the guide rod 12 is fixedly connected to a limiting plate 13, and the upper part of the limiting plate 13 is bent. The limiting plate 13 is located inside the fixed cylinder 65. The other end of the guide rod 12 is fixedly connected to a limiting block 14. A spring 15 is sleeved on the outer wall of the limiting plate 13. One end of the spring 15 is fixedly connected to the fixed ring 61, and the other end of the spring 15 is fixedly connected to the limiting block 14. Through the elastic force of the spring 15, pressure can be provided to the limiting plate 13, thereby making the cell container more stable.

[0035] In this embodiment, when cells need to be stored, the operator places the cell container into the fixed cylinder 65 of the guide assembly 6. Upon placement, the limiting plate 13 is squeezed, causing it to compress the spring 15 along with the guide rod 12. Once the cell container is fully inserted, the spring 15 returns to its original position, pushing the limiting plate 13 to tightly adhere to the outer wall of the cell container, achieving stable clamping and preventing damage or displacement of the cells during storage due to shaking or collision.

[0036] If cells need to be extracted, the first motor 4 is started. The output of the first motor 4 drives the chassis 5 to rotate. The chassis 5 drives multiple sets of guide components 6 to rotate, so that the cells to be extracted can be easily rotated to the direct under the sealing plug 3.

[0037] Then, the second motor 81 in the lifting assembly 8 is started. The output end of the second motor 81 drives the threaded rod 82 to rotate. The threaded sleeve block 83, which is threadedly connected to the threaded rod 82, moves vertically up and down along the threaded rod 82 during the rotation. The lifting plate 84 fixed on one side of the threaded sleeve block 83 moves accordingly.

[0038] The lifting plate 84 drives the fixing ring 61 to move vertically upward. The fixing ring 61 is limited by the guide groove 63 and the guide block 64, making the vertical upward movement of the fixing ring 61 more stable. The fixing ring 61 drives the internally limited cell container to move vertically upward, so that the upper end of the container pushes the sealing plug 3 on the fixing seat 2 to break free from the elastic force of the torsion spring 11 and open, pushing the cell container out of the storage cylinder 1. The cell container can then be removed without the need for the operator to manually search inside the storage cylinder 1, avoiding collisions or contamination of the cell container caused by manual searching, greatly improving the efficiency and safety of cell extraction, while reducing the workload of the operator.

[0039] The above specific embodiments are merely several optional embodiments of this utility model. Based on the technical solution of this utility model and the relevant teachings of the above embodiments, those skilled in the art can make various alternative improvements and combinations to the above specific embodiments.
