Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of laboratory tube rack technology, specifically a multifunctional laboratory tube rack for storing laboratory equipment. Background Technology
[0002] Pipette racks are specialized support devices used in laboratories to fix and store pipettes. Existing pipette racks have limited functionality, only suitable for a small number of instruments such as pipettes and graduated pipettes, and cannot accommodate commonly used experimental equipment such as beakers and test tubes, thus lacking versatility. They also have low space utilization; traditional horizontal stacked designs occupy a lot of table space, but the actual storage density is low, which does not meet the compact requirements of modern laboratories. Furthermore, they are inefficient to operate, with equipment mixed together and lacking classified management, leading to inconvenience in accessing equipment during experiments and affecting the smoothness of the workflow. Therefore, it is necessary to design a multifunctional experimental pipette rack for storing experimental equipment. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation
[0020] In the following description, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a more thorough understanding of the invention. However, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the invention can be practiced without one or more of these details. In other instances, certain technical features well-known in the art have not been described in order to avoid obscuring the invention.
[0021] Please see Figure 1-5 This utility model provides a technical solution: a multifunctional experimental tube rack for storing experimental instruments, including two vertically placed side plates 1 with trapezoidal vertical cross sections, and a horizontal plate 2, a horizontal plate 3 and a horizontal plate 4 arranged sequentially from top to bottom between the two side plates 1;
[0022] The horizontal plate 2 has several pipette insertion holes 9 for easy placement of pipettes. On one side of the pipette insertion holes 9, the horizontal plate 2 has several dropper holding slots 10 for easy placement of droppers. On one side of the dropper holding slots 10, the horizontal plate 2 has several syringe hooks 11, which can be set with different sizes to hold different types of syringes. On one side of the syringe hooks 11, the horizontal plate 2 has several funnel supports 12 for easy placement of funnels. The funnel supports 12 are spaced apart to ensure that the filtration of the funnels placed on the funnel supports 12 is not affected during the experiment. At the same time, the height between the horizontal plate 2 and the horizontal plate 3 is greater than the height of the syringes and droppers after suspension and the height of the filtration combination of the funnel and beaker.
[0023] The horizontal plate 2 3 has a pipette array perforation 14, which facilitates the placement of pipettes. A beaker positioning groove is set on one side of the pipette array perforation 14 on the horizontal plate 2 3. A beaker is placed in the beaker positioning groove to receive the liquid filtered by the funnel. Since the horizontal plate 2 3 is a planar structure, the placement of the beaker is flexible and does not need to be strictly fixed. The position can be adjusted appropriately according to the rotation of the funnel.
[0024] Several mortar fixing grooves 16 are provided on the horizontal plate 3 4, which facilitate the placement of the mortar.
[0025] The top of the side plate 1 has several pipette slots 17 for easy placement of pipettes. Several horizontal pipette rests 18 are provided on the upper and lower parts of one of the waist sections of the side plate 1. The vertical cross-section of the side plate 1 is trapezoidal, and the horizontal pipette rests 18 are located on the surface corresponding to one of the waist sections of the trapezoid, facilitating the horizontal placement of pipettes. To ensure overall stability, the vertical cross-section of the side plate 1 can be a right-angled trapezoid, with the horizontal pipette rests 18 located on the surface corresponding to the sloping waist of the trapezoid. A certain vertical spacing is maintained between adjacent horizontal pipette rests 18, ensuring the pipettes can be placed horizontally. To prevent interference between the placed pipettes, the system utilizes horizontal plates 1-2, 2-3, 3-4, and side plate 1 to facilitate the centralized storage of pipettes, pipettes, funnels, droppers, syringes, and mortars. It also conveniently stores beakers and dishes. This system organically integrates the advantages of specialized equipment such as pipette racks, iron stands, and pipette holders, achieving integrated storage of experimental instruments. The vertical composite structure formed by horizontal plates 1-2, 2-3, 3-4, and two side plates 1 reduces table space usage. The differentiated functional layout of horizontal plates 1-2, 2-3, and 3-4 significantly improves the practicality and operational efficiency of the device, enabling the scientific classification and storage of experimental equipment.
[0026] In a further embodiment, the side plate 1 is provided with a first slot 5, a second slot 6, and a third slot 7 from top to bottom. Both ends of the first horizontal plate 2 are provided with a first protrusion 8 that mates with the first slot 5. Both ends of the second horizontal plate 3 are provided with a second protrusion 13 that mates with the second slot 6. Both ends of the third horizontal plate 4 are provided with a third protrusion 15 that mates with the third slot 7. The first slot 5, the second slot 6, and the third slot 7 mate with the first protrusion 8, the second protrusion 13, and the third protrusion 15, which facilitates the installation of the first horizontal plate 2, the second horizontal plate 3, and the third horizontal plate 4.
[0027] In a further embodiment, the horizontal plate 3 4 may be provided with a number of auxiliary pipette insertion holes. The auxiliary pipette insertion holes facilitate the insertion of pipettes and make it convenient for temporary use and storage of pipettes.
[0028] In a further embodiment, the horizontal pipette holder 18 has a concave arc-shaped structure, which enables the horizontal pipette holder 18 to stably support the pipette.
[0029] In a further embodiment, the mortar fixing grooves 16 are arranged in a matrix, and several mortar fixing grooves 16 are arranged on one side of the horizontal plate 3 4, so that the horizontal plate 3 4 has a blank area reserved for hand operation or placement of small auxiliary tools.
[0030] In a further embodiment, the width of horizontal plate 3 4 is greater than the widths of horizontal plate 1 2 and horizontal plate 2 3. By widening horizontal plate 3 4, a stable trapezoidal structure is formed, improving the overall anti-tipping performance.
