Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of intestinal microbial detection, specifically an intestinal microbial detection kit. Background Technology

[0002] In intestinal microbiome testing, the stable storage of reagent tubes is fundamental to ensuring the smooth progress of the test. During the testing process, the reagent tubes contain samples and related reagents used to analyze intestinal microorganisms, and their condition directly affects the accuracy and reliability of the test results.

[0003] However, some existing reagent kits do not provide adequate fixation for the reagent tubes. Some kits simply place the reagent tubes through a slot without an effective securing structure. During transportation or movement, the reagent tubes are prone to shaking, which may not only cause the reagent tubes to break but also lead to sample leakage, thereby affecting the accuracy of the test results and causing inconvenience to the testing work. Utility Model Content

[0005] A gut microbiota detection kit, comprising:

[0006] The reagent kit body has multiple slots in its inner cavity;

[0007] A fastening assembly, disposed within the inner cavity of the slot, is used to clamp the reagent tube;

[0008] A clamping assembly, disposed above the reagent kit body, is used to clamp and secure the reagent tubes;

[0009] The fastening assembly includes six sets of crossbars disposed in the inner cavities of the plurality of slots. Each set of crossbars is fitted with a spring on its outer ring. Each set of crossbars is fitted with a sliding plate on both sides. The middle of each sliding plate has two through-holes. A clamping ring is fixedly connected to one side of each sliding plate. A protective pad is provided on one side of each clamping ring. Limiting rings are fixedly connected to both sides of each set of crossbars.

[0010] Preferably, the crossbars are arranged in pairs, and the diameter of each crossbar is adapted to the inner cavity of the circular groove.

[0011] Preferably, the protective pads are all made of cotton material.

[0012] Preferably, a U-shaped frame is fixedly connected to one side of the reagent kit body, a rotating rod is rotatably connected to the inner cavity of the U-shaped frame through a bearing, an L-plate is fitted around the outer ring of the rotating rod, a box cover is fixedly connected to one side of the L-plate, and a handle is fixedly connected to the top of the box cover.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0016] 1. This utility model achieves stable clamping of reagent tubes through a fastening assembly. By using the spring on the crossbar to push the moving plate and clamping ring, the clamping force can be automatically adjusted according to the specifications of the reagent tubes, adapting to different sizes of reagent tubes. The cotton protective pad on the clamping ring can prevent wear on the reagent tubes during clamping, and the limiting rings on both sides of the crossbar prevent the moving plate from slipping off, ensuring the stability and reliability of the fastening assembly and effectively reducing the shaking of the reagent tubes during placement.

Detailed Implementation

[0025] The embodiments of this utility model will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. The following examples are for illustrative purposes only and should not be construed as limiting the scope of this utility model.

[0026] Example:

[0027] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, this utility model provides an intestinal microbiome detection kit, comprising:

[0028] The reagent kit body 1 has multiple slots 101 in its inner cavity;

[0029] A fastening assembly is provided in the inner cavity of the slot 101 for clamping the reagent tube;

[0030] A clamping assembly is positioned above the reagent kit body 1 to clamp and secure the reagent tubes.

[0031] The fastening assembly includes six sets of crossbars 201 disposed in the inner cavities of multiple slots 101. Each set of crossbars 201 is fitted with a spring 202 on its outer ring. Each set of crossbars 201 is fitted with a sliding plate 203 on both sides. Two circular grooves 204 are opened through the middle of each sliding plate 203. A clamping ring 205 is fixedly connected to one side of each sliding plate 203. A protective pad 206 is provided on one side of each clamping ring 205. Limiting rings 207 are fixedly connected to both sides of each set of crossbars 201. The crossbars 201 are in pairs. The diameter of each crossbar 201 is adapted to the inner cavity of the circular groove 204. The protective pads 206 are all made of cotton material.

[0032] As can be seen from the above, the spring 202 on each set of crossbars 201 will exert a pushing force on the moving plates 203 on both sides, causing the moving plates 203 to move the clamping rings 205 closer to the center, thereby clamping the reagent tube. Since the diameter of the crossbar 201 is compatible with the inner cavity of the circular groove 204 on the moving plate 203, the moving plate 203 can slide stably along the crossbar 201, ensuring the smoothness of the clamping process. At the same time, the cotton protective pad 206 on one side of the clamping ring 205 can play a buffering and protective role when clamping the reagent tube, preventing the reagent tube from being damaged. The limiting rings 207 on both sides of the crossbar 201 can prevent the moving plates 203 from falling off the crossbar 201, ensuring the normal operation of the fastening components.

[0033] Please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, a U-shaped frame 103 is fixedly connected to one side of the reagent kit body 1. A rotating rod 104 is rotatably connected to the inner cavity of the U-shaped frame 103 through a bearing. An L-plate 105 is fitted around the outer ring of the rotating rod 104. A box cover 106 is fixedly connected to one side of the L-plate 105. A handle 107 is fixedly connected to the top of the box cover 106.

[0034] The clamping assembly includes three elongated plates 301 fixedly connected to the bottom of the cover 106. Each elongated plate 301 has a connecting strip 302 fixedly connected to its bottom. Each connecting strip 302 has two round rods 303 at its bottom. Each round rod 303 has a spring 304 fitted around its outer ring. Each round rod 303 has a clamping block 305 fitted around its outer ring. Each clamping block 305 has a circular slot 306 through its top. The outer surface of each spring 304 is coated with a tin plating layer.

[0035] As shown above, the reagent kit body 1 is rotatably connected to the lid 106 via the U-shaped frame 103, the rotating rod 104, and the L-plate 105. The staff can easily open or close the lid 106 via the handle 107. When the lid 106 is closed, the clamping component at its bottom can effectively clamp the reagent tube. The elongated plate 301 in the clamping component is connected to the round rod 303 via the connecting strip 302. The spring 304 on the outer ring of the round rod 303 applies a downward force to the clamping block 305, so that the clamping block 305 is pressed tightly against the top of the reagent tube. The clamping block 305 can slide along the round rod 303. The circular slot 306 ensures the stability of the sliding of the clamping block 305. The tin-plated layer on the outer surface of the spring 304 can enhance its rust resistance and extend its service life, thereby ensuring that the clamping component can continuously and stably clamp the reagent tube during long-term use, further improving the fixing effect of the reagent kit on the reagent tube and preventing the reagent tube from being damaged by shaking during movement.

[0036] Working Principle: When using the intestinal microbiome detection kit, the operator first opens the lid 106 using handle 107. Since the lid 106 is rotatably connected to the U-shaped frame 103 on one side of the kit body 1 via L-plate 105 and rotating rod 104, the kit body 1 can be opened. Then, the reagent tube is placed into the slot 101 inside the kit body 1. During placement, the reagent tube pushes the clamping rings 205 on both sides. The clamping rings 205 drive the moving plate 203 to move to both sides along the crossbar 201. At this time, the spring 202 on the outer ring of the crossbar 201 is compressed. The reaction force generated by the spring 202 is transmitted to the clamping rings 205 through the moving plate 203, causing the clamping rings 205 to tightly clamp the reagent tube, achieving initial fixation. Simultaneously, the protective pad 206 on one side of the clamping ring 205 contacts the reagent tube, preventing further clamping. During the holding process, the reagent tubes are worn. The limiting rings 207 on both sides of the crossbar 201 prevent the moving plate 203 from sliding out of the crossbar 201, ensuring the stability of the fastening assembly. After the reagent tubes are placed, the staff closes the lid 106 again through the handle 107. When the lid 106 is closed, the clamping block 305 in the bottom clamping assembly will contact the top of the reagent tube. As the lid 106 continues to close, the reagent tube will push the clamping block 305 upward. The clamping block 305 slides upward along the round rod 303. At this time, the second spring 304 on the outer ring of the round rod 303 is compressed. The reaction force of the second spring 304 makes the clamping block 305 press tightly against the top of the reagent tube, further fixing the reagent tube and preventing the reagent tube from shaking during the movement of the reagent kit. In addition, the tin plating layer on the outer surface of the second spring 304 can effectively prevent it from rusting and extend its service life.

[0037] The embodiments of this utility model are given for the purpose of illustration and description. Although embodiments of this utility model have been shown and described above, it is understood that the above embodiments are exemplary and should not be construed as limiting the utility model. Those skilled in the art can make changes, modifications, substitutions and variations to the above embodiments within the scope of this utility model.
