Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cell culture device technology, specifically a cell culture flask rack. Background Technology
[0002] In cell culture laboratories, it is often necessary to culture multiple different types of cells simultaneously, which involves a large number of cell culture flasks. Without dedicated racks, these flasks may be placed haphazardly, leading to a cluttered laboratory environment. This not only makes it difficult to quickly locate the required flasks but also increases the risk of them being knocked over or damaged.
[0003] Existing cell culture flask racks typically have slots corresponding to the flasks. When placing a cell culture flask, it is simply snapped into the slot. However, this snapping method is not stable enough. On the one hand, the cell culture flask is prone to shaking, which may cause internal nutrients to move during the culture process, affecting the process. On the other hand, there is also a risk of the cell culture flask falling due to collisions, which could even lead to injury. To address the shortcomings of existing technology, this invention provides a cell culture flask rack to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation
[0028] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this utility model are described clearly and completely. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.
[0029] This application provides a cell culture flask rack that solves the problem that the existing cell culture flask racks are not stable enough. On the one hand, the cell culture flasks are prone to shaking, which may cause the internal nutrients to move during the culture process and affect the culture process. On the other hand, the cell culture flasks are also at risk of falling off due to collisions, which may even cause injury to people.
[0030] To better understand the above technical solutions, the following will provide a detailed explanation of the technical solutions in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.
[0031] Example 1:
[0032] This utility model discloses a cell culture flask rack, according to the attached... Figure 1-4 As shown, it includes a placement rack base 1, a support platform 2, a clamping unit 3, a limiting block 4, a snap-fit block 5, and a locking unit 6;
[0033] The base 1 of the placement rack serves as the basic support structure for the entire placement rack, providing an installation platform for other components. It contains an inner cavity 11 and a sliding groove 12 to limit the movement of the adjustment platform 31, ensuring its stable sliding within its interior. In use, the base 1 is simply placed stably in a suitable position.
[0034] The support platform 2 is slidably connected above the base 1 of the placement rack to support the limiting block 4, thereby facilitating the clamping and limiting of the cell culture flask. The support platform 2 has a slot 21 that mates with the locking block 5, facilitating the installation and positioning of the locking block 5, and thus positioning the limiting block 4. When adjusting the position of the support platform 2, the clamping unit 3 drives the support platform 2 to move.
[0035] The clamping unit 3 is used to adjust the position of the support platform 2. The clamping unit 3 includes an adjusting platform 31 and a bidirectional screw 32. The adjusting platform 31 is slidably connected to the placement rack base 1 and fixedly connected to the support platform 2. The bidirectional screw 32 is rotatably connected to the placement rack base 1 and threadedly connected to the adjusting platform 31. The bidirectional screw 32 is provided with a rotating handle 321. In use, by rotating the rotating handle 321, the bidirectional screw 32 is driven to rotate. Since the adjusting platform 31 is threadedly connected to the bidirectional screw 32 and is limited within the placement rack base 1, the adjusting platform 31 will move along the axial direction of the bidirectional screw 32, thereby driving the support platform 2 to move, realizing the adjustment of the position of the support platform 2. The support platform 2 then drives the clamping block 5 and the limiting block 4 to move, and the limiting block 4 is used to clamp and limit the cell culture flask.
[0036] The limiting block 4 is movably engaged with the support platform 2 to secure the cell culture flask. It has an internal fitting groove 41 corresponding to the cell culture flask, allowing the flask to be inserted into the groove for fixation and protection. During use, the engaging design of the locking block 5 and the support platform 2 makes it easy to replace the models of the limiting block 4 and the fitting groove 41, thus ensuring a good securing effect on the cell culture flask.
[0037] The snap-fit block 5 is set on the limiting block 4 and is movably snapped into the support platform 2. It has a locking hole 51 for cooperating with the locking unit 6 to fix the limiting block 4.
[0038] The locking unit 6 is mounted on the support platform 2 and is used to lock the snap-fit block 5. It includes a sleeve 61, a locking pin 62, a movable block 63, and a spring 64.
[0039] Sleeve 61 is mounted on support platform 2. Locking pin 62 is movably engaged in sleeve 61 and movably inserted into lock hole 51. Movable block 63 is fixedly connected to locking pin 62 and slidably connected in sleeve 61. Spring 64 is fixedly connected between movable block 63 and sleeve 61.
[0040] In use, pull the locking pin 62 outward. The locking pin 62 drives the movable block 63 to move and compress the spring 64. At this time, select the appropriate model of the limiting block 4 according to the cell culture flask, put the snap-fit block 5 into the slot 21 of the support platform 2, release the locking pin 62, the spring 64 returns to its deformation, pushes the movable block 63 to move, and the movable block 63 drives the locking pin 62 to insert into the lock hole 51, thereby fixing the limiting block 4.
[0041] Example 2:
[0042] This utility model discloses a cell culture flask rack, according to the attached... Figure 1-4 As shown, it includes a placement rack base 1, a support platform 2, a clamping unit 3, a limiting block 4, a snap-fit block 5, and a locking unit 6;
[0043] The support platform 2 is slidably connected above the base 1 of the placement rack;
[0044] The clamping unit 3 is located inside the base 1 of the placement rack and is used to adjust the position of the support platform 2. The clamping unit 3 includes an adjusting platform 31 and a bidirectional screw 32. The adjusting platform 31 is slidably connected to the base 1 of the placement rack and is fixedly connected to the support platform 2. The bidirectional screw 32 is rotatably connected to the base 1 of the placement rack and is threadedly connected to the adjusting platform 31.
[0045] The limiting block 4 is movable and engaged with the support platform 2 and is used to engage the cell culture flask;
[0046] The snap-fit block 5 is set on the limit block 4 and is movably snap-fitted inside the support platform 2;
[0047] The locking unit 6 is mounted on the support platform 2 and is used to lock the snap-fit block 5.
[0048] The bottom of the base 1 of the placement rack is equipped with rubber feet 13. The rubber feet 13 can increase the friction between the placement rack and the placement surface, play a role in preventing slipping, and also cushion vibration and protect the cell culture flasks placed on it.
[0049] The limiting block 4 has an internal fitting groove 41 corresponding to the cell culture flask. The fitting groove 41 can be designed in shape according to various models of cell culture flasks to meet the clamping requirements of different cell culture flasks and ensure good clamping effect on the cell culture flasks.
