Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of liquid sealing and storage technology, specifically a closed liquid adding device. Background Technology

[0002] Formalin is a 35%-40% aqueous solution of formaldehyde, with formaldehyde as its main component. Formaldehyde is a toxic gas that, when released into the air, strongly irritates the conjunctiva of the eyes and the mucous membranes of the respiratory tract, while also increasing the risk of cancer. Clinically, 10% formalin is often added to phosphate buffer for specimen processing, and the finished product is usually stored in food-grade polyethylene plastic containers. When using formalin in hospitals, it needs to be poured from a small-capacity polyethylene plastic container into a large-capacity temporary storage container for subsequent experiments or specimen preparation. This transfer of formalin solution requires medical staff to repeatedly open and close the plastic container, and the lid of the large container is prone to tipping over and leaks. When pouring by hand, the solution easily spills and spreads into the air. Furthermore, the solution is directly exposed to the air during pouring, still posing a risk of diffusion and increasing the risk of exposure to the eyes and respiratory mucous membranes for medical staff, thus harming their physical and mental health.

[0003] Therefore, a closed-loop liquid addition device is needed to transfer and store the formalin solution in polyethylene plastic drums, in order to reduce the number of times the plastic drum lid is opened and closed, and the process of adding it to the temporary storage container is simple and convenient, does not easily cause spillage, and reduces the volatilization of toxic gases.
