[0002] Cell culture plates are commonly used experimental instruments in cell culture experiments. They can provide a stable and non-toxic growth environment for cells. During cell culture, vibrations in the external environment can have a significant impact on cell growth.

[0003] However, traditional cell culture plates have poor shock absorption and cushioning effects. Even minor external vibrations, such as those caused by personnel walking or the operation of equipment, can interfere with the cell growth environment, leading to changes in cell morphology and function, and affecting the accuracy and reliability of experimental data.

[0004] To address these issues, we offer cell culture plates. Utility Model Content

[0019] (iii) Beneficial effects:

[0020] Compared with existing technologies, this cell culture plate has the following advantages:

[0021] I. This cell culture plate, through the synergistic effect of flexible shock-absorbing column array, shock-absorbing airbags, and fluid damping shock-absorbing bags, can buffer and absorb vibrations from multiple dimensions. It can effectively cope with vibrations of different frequencies and intensities, improve the shock absorption and buffering capabilities of the cell culture plate, effectively reduce the interference of external vibrations on cells, ensure cell growth in a stable environment, and improve the accuracy and reliability of experimental data.

[0022] II. This cell culture plate, equipped with a cover plate and a sealing plate, ensures that when the first locking tooth engages with the side end of the extension plate, the sealing plate covers the upper end of the culture tube, preventing external dust from entering and thus preventing cell sample contamination (e.g., dust). Figure 4 Suitable for cell cultures where air circulation is not required. When the second locking tooth engages with the side of the extension plate, the sealing plate is located at the top of the culture tube, with a gap between them.

[0030] 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.

[0031] like Figures 1-5As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution: a cell culture plate, including a base plate 1, with multiple culture tubes 2 evenly distributed and connected to the upper end of the base plate 1. Cells are cultured in the culture tubes 2. The bottom of the culture tubes 2 is rounded to avoid hard-to-clean corners inside the culture tubes 2. There are gaps between adjacent culture tubes 2 to ensure that the culture tubes 2 are independent of each other. Identification scale lines are engraved on the upper edge of the base plate 1, and the identification scale lines correspond to the culture tubes 2. The side end of the base plate 1 is provided with a digital mark to facilitate the recording of each culture tube 2. Extension plates 7 are connected to both sides of the base plate 1, and handles 8 are connected to the side ends of the extension plates 7. The outer end of the handles 8 is provided with an anti-slip texture. The handles 8 make it easy for the staff to move the equipment, improving the convenience of operation.

[0032] A shock-absorbing and buffering mechanism is provided at the lower end of the base plate 1 to reduce the interference of external vibrations on the culture tube 2. The shock-absorbing and buffering mechanism includes: a flexible shock-absorbing column array 3, shock-absorbing airbags 4, a fluid damping shock-absorbing bag 5, and a shock-absorbing rubber pad 6. The flexible shock-absorbing column array 3 is composed of multiple columnar structures made of highly elastic silicone material, which are evenly distributed and connected to the lower end of the base plate 1. It has good elasticity and resilience. When subjected to vibration and impact, it can absorb and disperse energy through its own elastic deformation. Furthermore, due to the properties of silicone material, it is not prone to elastic fatigue during long-term use. The shock-absorbing airbag layer 4 is connected below the flexible shock-absorbing column array 3 and is composed of multiple interconnected elastic micro-airbags. The gas inside the airbags can flow to each other, and the gas can be compressed and expanded. It absorbs vibration energy, especially providing a good buffering effect for low-frequency vibrations. The fluid damping shock-absorbing bag 5 is connected to the lower end of the shock-absorbing airbag 4. Its internal cavity is filled with a viscous damping fluid. The damping fluid flows in the bag and generates damping force, which can consume vibration energy and effectively suppress the transmission of vibration. Especially for high-frequency vibrations, it can quickly attenuate the vibration amplitude. The lower surface of the fluid damping shock-absorbing bag 5 is provided with anti-slip grooves to increase friction with the tabletop, thereby effectively preventing the fluid damping shock-absorbing bag 5 from sliding. The shock-absorbing rubber pad 6 is connected to the upper end of the base plate 1. Each culture tube 2 is connected to a shock-absorbing rubber pad 6 at its lower end. The presence of the shock-absorbing rubber pad 6 makes the culture tube 2 and the base plate 1 flexibly connected, which can further reduce the impact of vibration on individual culture tubes 2.

[0033] The upper end of the culture tube 2 is provided with a cover plate 9. The cover plate 9 is made of the same material as the base plate 1 and the culture tube 2, which is transparent medical plastic, so as to facilitate observation inside the culture tube 2. The lower end of the cover plate 9 is connected to a sealing cap 10 corresponding to the culture tube 2. The sealing cap 10 can be fitted onto the upper end of the culture tube 2.

[0034] The cover plate 9 is connected to the two sides with locking strips 11. The locking strips 11 are elastic plastic sheets that can be bent manually and automatically return to their original shape. The side ends of the locking strips 11 are connected to a first locking tooth 12 and a second locking tooth 13. The first locking tooth 12 is located above the second locking tooth 13. Both can be locked onto the side ends of the extension plate 7, so that the cover plate 9 can be locked onto the base plate 1 by the locking strips 11.

[0035] Working principle: During use, the cover plate 9 is snapped onto the upper end of the base plate 1 via the locking strip 11. For cell culture experiments requiring air circulation, the second locking teeth 13 are snapped onto both sides of the extension plate 7. At this time, a gap is left between the sealing cover 10 and the culture tube 2. Figure 5 As shown), this effectively reduces the amount of external dust falling into the culture tube 2 while ensuring air circulation. For cell culture experiments that do not require air circulation, the first locking teeth 12 are engaged with both sides of the extension plate 7. At this time, the sealing cap 10 will cover the upper end of the culture tube 2, thus preventing dust from entering. Figure 4 As shown, this effectively prevents cell samples from being contaminated by dust. When the cell culture plate is vibrated, the damping fluid in the fluid damping bag 5 generates damping force, which consumes vibration energy and effectively suppresses the transmission of vibration. The gas in the airbag of the shock-absorbing airbag 4 can flow, and further absorb vibration energy through the compression and expansion of the gas. The flexible shock-absorbing column array 3 absorbs and disperses energy through the elastic deformation of the high-elasticity silicone columns, further buffering the vibration. The shock-absorbing rubber pad 6 can further reduce the impact of vibration on individual culture tubes 2, thereby effectively coping with vibrations of different frequencies and intensities, effectively reducing the interference of external vibrations on cells, ensuring cell growth in a stable environment, and improving the accuracy and reliability of experimental data.
