Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical equipment technology, and in particular to a temporary storage device for virus sampling tubes. Background Technology

[0002] A virus sampling tube storage device is a piece of equipment used for the temporary storage of virus sampling tubes. It is mainly used in scenarios such as nucleic acid testing, disease screening, and clinical sampling. During the sampling process, to ensure sample safety and sampling efficiency, sampling tubes often need to be placed and temporarily stored in an orderly manner after collection to avoid sample confusion, contamination, or leakage. This device typically features stable structure, ease of operation, and easy disinfection, meeting the temporary storage needs of sampled samples in various environments, improving the standardization of the sampling process and the work efficiency of operators.

[0003] An investigation revealed that a Chinese utility model patent (publication number: CN217663465U) discloses a virus sampling tube temporary storage device. Although the patent includes an adjustment device, allowing small-sized virus sampling tubes to be placed in the device, the size of the space formed by the left and right arc rods can be adjusted by rotating the nut to prevent shaking, it cannot achieve dynamic management of sample layers. When the upper test tube rack is full, the full rack of test tubes must be manually moved to the lower layer or other areas. The shaking during the handling process may cause the test tubes to shake and the samples to leak, reducing the continuity of sample storage and operational efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0004] Given that the existing methods cannot achieve dynamic management of samples in a stratified manner, and that when the upper test tube rack is full, the full rack of test tubes needs to be manually moved to the lower rack or other areas, the test tubes may shake and the samples may leak due to the bumps during the transportation process, which reduces the continuity of sample storage and the efficiency of operation, this utility model is proposed.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a virus sampling tube temporary storage device, including a temporary storage structure, a test tube rack structure, and an installation structure. The test tube rack structure is installed inside the temporary storage structure, and the installation structure is installed on the test tube rack structure. The test tube rack structure includes a turntable, a motor, and a test tube rack. The turntable is rotatably installed on both sides of the inner wall of the housing. The motor shaft of the motor is fixedly connected to the turntable. A connecting shaft is rotatably installed on the side of the motor away from the turntable. The test tube rack is connected to the connecting shaft through the installation structure. Counterweights are symmetrically fixedly installed on both sides of the bottom end of the test tube rack, and a slot is provided at the top end of the test tube rack.

[0006] As a preferred embodiment of the virus sampling tube temporary storage device of this utility model, the temporary storage structure includes a box body, a box cover and a cooler. The box cover is snapped onto the top of the box body, and a handle is fixedly installed on the top of the box cover. The cooler is fixedly installed on the side wall of the box body.

[0007] In a preferred embodiment of the virus sampling tube temporary storage device of this utility model, the motor is fixedly installed on the outside of the box, the motor shaft of the motor passes through the side wall of the box, and the motor shaft of the motor and the side wall of the box are rotatably connected.

[0008] In a preferred embodiment of the virus sampling tube temporary storage device of this utility model, a rubber pad is attached to the inner wall of the slot.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment of the virus sampling tube temporary storage device of this utility model, the installation structure includes a fixed plate, a movable plate, a spring and a limiting hole. The fixed plate is rotatably installed at the end of the connecting shaft. The movable plate is located on the side of the fixed plate near the connecting shaft. A through groove is provided on the movable plate. The connecting shaft extends through the through groove to the other side of the movable plate. A pull rod is fixedly installed at the top of the movable plate.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment of the virus sampling tube temporary storage device of this utility model, wherein: the movable plate is fixedly installed with a plug rod at one end near the fixed plate, the spring is sleeved on the plug rod, one end of the spring is fixedly connected to the movable plate, and the other end is fixedly connected to the fixed plate, the limiting hole is provided on both sides of the test tube rack, and the limiting hole is adapted to the plug rod.

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

[0012] 1. Through the set test tube rack structure, the linkage of motor, turntable and connecting shaft realizes the flexible switching between test tube rack full of test tubes and unused test tube rack. With the help of counterweight, it can ensure that the top surface of the test tube rack is always facing upward during the rotation, effectively avoiding the risk of test tube tilting and sample spillage. Operators do not need to bend over or reach into the bottom of the box to pick up and put in test tubes. In low temperature environment, it reduces the frequency of arm reaching in, reduces the difficulty of operation, and improves the continuity and efficiency of sample temporary storage.

[0013] 2. Through the designed installation structure, the movable plate can be moved by pulling the pull rod, allowing the insertion rod to disengage from the limiting hole, thus easily removing the test tube rack. Conversely, the spring force can be used to quickly install and fix the rack, facilitating individual cleaning, disinfection, or replacement of the test tube rack. This avoids the risk of cross-contamination caused by the inconvenience of overall cleaning and reduces the maintenance cost of the equipment. Attached Figure Description

[0024] Example

[0025] Refer to attached figure Figure 1 - Appendix Figure 6This invention provides a virus sampling tube temporary storage device, comprising a temporary storage structure 1, a test tube rack structure 2, and an installation structure 3. The test tube rack structure 2 is installed inside the temporary storage structure 1, and the installation structure 3 is installed on the test tube rack structure 2. The temporary storage structure 1 includes a box body 11, a box cover 12, and a cooler 13. The box cover 12 is snapped onto the top of the box body 11, and a handle is fixedly installed on the top of the box cover 12. The cooler 13 is fixedly installed on the side wall of the box body 11. The cooler 13 is a prior art device. By pulling the handle, the box cover 12 can be removed from the box body 11. By setting the cooler 13, a low-temperature environment is formed inside the cavity of the box body 11.

[0026] The test tube rack structure 2 includes a turntable 21, a motor 22, and test tube racks 24. The turntable 21 is rotatably mounted on both sides of the inner wall of the housing 11. The motor 22 is fixedly mounted on the outer side of the housing 11. The motor shaft of the motor 22 passes through the side wall of the housing 11 and is fixedly connected to the turntable 21. The motor shaft of the motor 22 is rotatably connected to the side wall of the housing 11. A connecting shaft 23 is rotatably mounted on the side of the motor 22 away from the turntable 21. Two test tube racks 24 are provided. Counterweights 25 are symmetrically fixedly mounted on both sides of the bottom end of the test tube rack 24. A slot 26 is provided at the top of the test tube rack 24. A rubber pad is attached to the inner wall of the slot 26.

[0027] The mounting structure 3 includes a fixed plate 31, a movable plate 32, a spring 36, and a limiting hole 37. The fixed plate 31 is rotatably mounted on the end of the connecting shaft 23. The movable plate 32 is located on the side of the fixed plate 31 near the connecting shaft 23. A through groove 33 is provided on the movable plate 32. The connecting shaft 23 extends through the through groove 33 to the other side of the movable plate 32. A pull rod 34 is fixedly mounted on the top of the movable plate 32. Insert rods 35 are fixedly mounted on the end of the movable plate 32 near the fixed plate 31. The spring 36 is sleeved on the insert rods 35. One end of the spring 36 is fixedly connected to the movable plate 32, and the other end is fixedly connected to the fixed plate 31. The limiting hole 37 is located on both sides of the test tube rack 24 and is compatible with the insert rods 35.

[0028] During use, when virus test tubes need to be temporarily stored, pull the handle to remove the lid 12 from the box body 11, and then insert the test tubes into the slots 26. The test tubes have caps. Because the inner wall of the slots 26 is fitted with rubber pads, the test tubes will squeeze the rubber pads, thereby increasing the friction of the test tubes and improving their stability. By setting up the cooler 13, a low-temperature environment is formed inside the cavity of the box body 11. When the test tube rack 24 is full, the motor 22 is started. The motor shaft of the motor 22 drives the turntable 21 to rotate. The turntable 21 drives the connecting shaft 23 to rotate with the turntable 21. The connecting shaft 23 drives the test tube rack 24 to rotate through the mounting structure 3. Because the bottom of the test tube rack 24 is symmetrically fixed with counterweights 25, when the test tube rack 24 rotates with the connecting shaft 23, the top surface of the test tube rack 24 always faces upward, so that the test tube rack 24 filled with test tubes rotates to the bottom of the box body 11, and the unused test tube rack 24 rotates to the top.

[0029] When the test tube rack 24 needs to be disassembled, simply pull the pull rod 34. The pull rod 34 moves the movable plate 32, which in turn moves the insertion rod 35 out of the limiting hole 37. At the same time, the spring 36 is stretched, thereby removing the test tube rack 24. During installation, simply align the limiting hole 37 and the insertion rod 35, release the pull rod 34, and under the elastic force of the spring 36, it will automatically reset, allowing the insertion rod 35 to extend into the limiting hole 37, thereby limiting and fixing the test tube rack 24.

[0030] It should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solution of this utility model without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of this utility model, and all such modifications or substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
