[0002] Tissue specimens from the gastrointestinal tract are usually removed from the body using biopsy forceps. After the biopsy tissue is removed, it needs to be flattened to avoid wrinkles. Then, it is wrapped in specimen paper and soaked in formalin solution to solidify the tissue.
[0003] In existing technologies, it is easy for parts of the biopsy tissue to not be completely submerged in the formalin solution, resulting in incomplete local curing and thus unqualified biopsy tissue. Utility Model Content

[0017] 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.
[0018] Please see Figures 1-4 In this embodiment of the present invention, a gastrointestinal endoscope specimen storage and retrieval converter includes a container 1. A sealing cap 2 is threadedly connected to the top of the outer wall of the container 1. The sealing cap 2 is used to seal the top opening of the container 1. The outer circumference of the sealing cap 2 is integrally formed with circumferentially equidistant friction textures 3. A downwardly extending storage and retrieval mechanism is integrally formed at the bottom center of the friction textures 3. The inner cavity of the container 1 has a downwardly recessed holding cavity 4. The lower half of the holding cavity 4 has a variable diameter structure that is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom.
[0019] In this embodiment: First, after using biopsy forceps to grasp the tissue from the gastrointestinal tract and moving it to the outside, the biopsy tissue is first spread out to make it flat. Then, the flat tissue is wrapped with specimen soft paper. During the wrapping process, the biopsy tissue should not be wrinkled and should be kept flat. Then, the storage mechanism is opened, and the biopsy tissue wrapped with specimen soft paper is placed into the storage mechanism. After placement, the storage mechanism is closed. Then, the storage mechanism is placed into the holding cavity 4 containing formalin solution. Finally, the sealing cap 2 is rotated to close it. In this way, the biopsy tissue wrapped with specimen soft paper can be completely immersed in formalin solution, avoiding the problem of some tissue not being completely immersed in formalin solution, thus avoiding problems caused by incomplete immersion of the biopsy tissue.
[0020] Please refer to this carefully. Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 The storage and retrieval mechanism includes a vertical rod 5 integrally formed at the center of the bottom of the friction texture 3 and extending downward. A storage box 6 is integrally formed at the bottom of the vertical rod 5. The storage box 6 has a hollow structure and an open structure at the bottom. The storage and retrieval mechanism also includes a rotating cover 7 disposed below the opening of the storage box 6. A fixed seat 8 is integrally formed on the outer circumference of the storage box 6. A rotating seat 9 is integrally formed on the outer circumference of the rotating cover 7 and is rotatably mounted to the fixed seat 8. Both the storage box 6 and the rotating cover 7 have through holes 12 inside.
[0021] In this embodiment: After the flat biopsy tissue is wrapped in specimen soft paper, the lower locking block 11 is pushed to separate from the upper locking block 10. After the two are separated, the rotating cover 7 can be pushed to open. At this time, the rotating cover 7 drives the rotating seat 9 and the fixed seat 8 to rotate relative to each other. After the rotating cover 7 is opened, the tissue wrapped in specimen soft paper can be placed into the storage box 6. Then the rotating cover 7 is rotated to close until the upper locking block 10 and the lower locking block 11 are locked again. After that, the storage box 6 can be placed into the holding cavity 4 and completely contacted with the formalin solution in the holding cavity 4, avoiding the possibility of the biopsy tissue floating.
[0022] It should be noted that because the lower half of the holding cavity 4 has a variable diameter structure that is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom, less formalin solution can be used to soak the biopsy tissue.
[0023] Please refer to this carefully. Figure 3 and Figure 4 The storage box 6 has an upper locking block 10 that protrudes outward and is integrally formed with the fixed base 8 on its outer periphery. The rotating cover 7 has a lower locking block 11 that engages with the upper locking block 10 and is integrally formed with the rotating base 9 on its outer periphery. The vertical rod of the lower locking block 11 is an elastic plastic rod.
[0024] In this embodiment: when the rotating cover 7 is rotated open, the elastic plastic rod of the lower locking block 11, which is under force, deforms outward, thereby separating the upper locking block 10 from the lower locking block 11. When the rotating cover 7 is rotated closed, the elastic plastic rod of the lower locking block 11, which is under pressure, bends outward again until the upper locking block 10 and the lower locking block 11 are misaligned. At this time, the elastic plastic rod returns to its original position, thus achieving effective locking.
[0025] Please refer to this carefully. Figure 1 and Figure 2 A rubber sealing ring is installed at the junction of the bottom of the sealing cap 2 and the top of the container 1.
[0026] In this embodiment, the design of the sealing ring ensures that formalin solution can be prevented from leaking out from the mating position when the sealing cap 2 is in the tightened closed state, thus improving the sealing effect.
[0027] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
