Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of drain racks, specifically relating to a container drain rack. Background Technology

[0002] Beakers, conical flasks, and other similar containers are widely used in various biochemical experiments. After each use, they need to be cleaned to remove residues and avoid adverse effects on the next experiment. After manual cleaning, these containers need to be dried thoroughly. Therefore, they are usually placed upside down on a draining rack after cleaning to allow any residual water on the inner walls to drain out.

[0003] Existing drain racks all have an internal support that is inserted into the container to lift the inverted container.

[0004] However, this type of internal support has at least two drawbacks when draining containers. First, the internal support comes into contact with the inner wall of the container, and foreign matter adhering to the support can contaminate the cleaned container (this foreign matter may be from containers from the previous batch that were not cleaned properly, or it may have come from the air or from the operator). Second, water stains will remain where the internal support contacts the inner wall of the container. Therefore, drain racks with internal supports are prone to contaminating containers, affecting the accuracy of the results of the next round of tests. Utility Model Content

[0005] This utility model provides a container drain rack to solve the technical problem that existing drain racks with internal support brackets are prone to contaminating clean containers.

[0006] This utility model includes: a water collection tray;

[0007] A bracket is provided on one side of the water collection tray;

[0008] The bracket has its rear section hinged to the support; its middle section is connected to the support via a limiting component; and the front end face of the bracket has several slots.

[0009] The bottle holder has a retaining plate at its rear end, which is adapted to the retaining slot.

[0010] This invention uses a bottle holder to fix the container. By adjusting the angle of the hanging bracket, the opening of the container on the bottle holder is positioned downwards, which facilitates the drainage of residual water inside, eliminating concerns about adverse effects caused by the internal insert bracket.

[0011] Further: the limiting component includes:

[0012] A limiting plate is connected to the side of the bracket, and an arc-shaped groove is provided on the limiting plate;

[0013] The middle section of the bracket is also provided with a stud corresponding to the position of the arc-shaped groove, and the stud passes through the arc-shaped groove;

[0014] A locking nut is provided on the stud on the outside of the limiting plate, and a washer is fitted on the stud between the limiting plate and the hanging bracket. The beneficial effect of this step is that the flipping angle of the hanging bracket can be adjusted by adjusting the position of the stud in the arc groove to adapt to containers of different shapes.

[0015] Furthermore: the front end of the bottle holder is provided with a front baffle, and the rear end of the bottle holder is provided with a rear baffle;

[0016] The front baffle has a slot; the rear baffle is connected to the clamping plate. The beneficial effects of this step are: the front baffle limits the container and prevents it from slipping; the rear baffle is used to connect the clamping plate.

[0017] Furthermore, the upper edge of the bottle holder is provided with at least one strap. The beneficial effect of this step is that the strap can fix the container to the bottle holder, further enhancing the stability of the container.

[0018] Furthermore: a reinforcing beam is provided on one or both sides of the slot, and the two ends of the reinforcing beam are connected to the hanger. The beneficial effect of this step is that the structural strength of the hanger is strengthened by the reinforcing beam, thus preventing its deformation.

[0019] Furthermore: the water collection tray is provided with a ramp block and a center of gravity block, the bottom of the ramp block faces the center of gravity block, and the ramp block and the center of gravity block form a drainage ditch;

[0020] The water collection tray is equipped with a drain nozzle corresponding to the position of the drainage ditch;

[0021] The support is mounted on the center of gravity block. The beneficial effect of this step is that the ramp block can guide water droplets to flow into the drainage ditch and then discharge them from the drain nozzle.

[0022] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0023] 1. In this application, the container is placed on the bottle holder, and only the outer wall of the container contacts the bottle holder, without contacting the inner wall of the container. This will prevent contamination of the container's interior and will not affect the accuracy of subsequent tests.

[0024] 2. The angle of the hanging rack is adjustable to accommodate containers of different shapes, ensuring that all residual moisture inside can be drained. Attached Figure Description

[0034] The embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. These embodiments are merely illustrative of the present invention and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0035] It should be noted that, unless otherwise stated, the technical or scientific terms used in this application shall have the ordinary meaning as understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this utility model pertains.

[0036] Implementation of this application, for example Figures 1-4 As shown, this utility model provides a container drain rack.

[0037] This utility model includes: a water collection tray 1;

[0038] Support 2 is located on one side of the water collection tray 1;

[0039] The rear section of the hanging bracket 3 is hinged to the bracket 2; the middle section is connected to the bracket 2 through a limiting component. The front end face of the hanging bracket 3 is provided with several slots 31. The hanging bracket 3 can rotate with the hinge point of the rear section as the center, so as to facilitate the adjustment of the flip angle of the hanging bracket 3.

[0040] Bottle holder 4, with a retaining plate 43 at the rear end, the retaining plate 43 being adapted to the retaining groove 31, the bottle holder 4 being movably connected to the retaining groove 31 of the hanging bracket 3 through the retaining plate 43, when the bottle holder is not in use, it can be removed from the hanging bracket 3, and then the hanging bracket 3 can be lowered vertically to avoid deformation caused by long-term stress on the hanging bracket 3.

[0041] This utility model uses a bottle holder 4 to fix the container 6. Since the container 6 has various shapes, such as a beaker with a vertical wall, a conical flask with a slanted wall, and a flask with a curved wall, when draining water from a beaker, only a slight tilt is needed for the water to flow out. However, containers like conical flasks or flasks require a larger tilt to allow the water to flow out completely. Therefore, it is necessary to adjust the angle of the hanging bracket 3 so that the mouth of the container 6 on the bottle holder 4 is in a downward position, which facilitates the drainage of residual water inside. There is no need to worry about the adverse effects caused by the internal insertion bracket.

[0042] Based on the above technical solution, the limiting component includes:

[0043] A limiting plate 21 is connected to the side of the bracket 2, and an arc-shaped groove 211 is provided on the limiting plate 21;

[0044] The middle section of the bracket 3 is also provided with a stud 22 corresponding to the position of the arc groove 211, and the stud 22 passes through the arc groove 211;

[0045] A locking nut 23 is provided on the stud 22 on the outer side of the limiting plate 21. A washer 24 is fitted on the stud 22 between the limiting plate 21 and the hanging bracket 3. The rotation angle of the hanging bracket 3 can be adjusted by adjusting the position of the stud 22 in the arc groove 211 to accommodate containers 6 of different shapes. The locking nut 23 has a plastic seal on its surface for easy tightening or loosening, while the washer 24 fills the gap between the limiting plate 21 and the hanging bracket 3. When the locking nut 23 is tightened, the limiting plate 21 will deform slightly, which, together with the hanging component, clamps the washer 24. The friction between the hanging bracket 3 and the washer 24, and the friction between the washer 24 and the limiting plate 21, is greater than the weight of the hanging bracket 3 and the bottle holder 4 and container 6 on the hanging bracket 3, thus preventing the hanging bracket 3 from falling automatically.

[0046] Based on the above technical solution, the front end of the bottle holder 4 is provided with a front baffle 41, and the rear end of the bottle holder 4 is provided with a rear baffle 42.

[0047] The front baffle 41 has a slot that matches the shape of the container 6 and prevents the container 6 from slipping. The rear baffle 42 is connected to the card plate 43. The card plate 43 includes a connecting post and a baffle. The connecting post is connected to the rear baffle 42 and is embedded in the card slot 31. The distance between the baffle and the rear baffle 42 is adapted to the thickness of the card slot 31.

[0048] Based on the above technical solution, the upper edge of the bottle holder 4 is also provided with at least one strap. Both ends of the strap are provided with matching Velcro, and the strap itself is elastic. One end of the strap can be connected to the upper edge of the bottle holder 4 or not. When one end of the strap is connected to the upper edge of the bottle holder 4, the specific structure is that the upper edge of the bottle holder 4 has a through hole, one end of the strap passes through the through hole and is connected in a loop. When the strap is not connected to the bottle holder 4, the strap is set separately and can connect the bottle holder 4 and the container 6 together in a loop for binding. Regardless of the fixing method used by the strap, the strap can fix the container 6 to the bottle holder 4, further enhancing the stability of the container 6 and preventing the container 6 from slipping and breaking.

[0049] Based on the above technical solution, a reinforcing beam 32 is provided on one or both sides of the slot 31. The two ends of the reinforcing beam 32 are connected to the hanger 3. The reinforcing beam 32 strengthens the structural strength of the hanger 3 and prevents it from deforming.

[0050] Based on the above technical solution, the water collection tray 1 is provided with a ramp block 5 and a center of gravity block 12. The bottom of the ramp block 5 faces the center of gravity block 12, and the ramp block 5 and the center of gravity block 12 form a drainage ditch.

[0051] The water collection tray 1 is provided with a drain nozzle 11 corresponding to the position of the drainage ditch;

[0052] The support 2 is mounted on the center of gravity block 12. When water flows onto the ramp block 5, the ramp guides the water droplets to converge into the drainage ditch, and then discharges them from the drain nozzle 11. In use, the water collection tray 1 is generally placed on one side of the water tank, with the drain nozzle 11 extending above the water tank so that the water flow can just reach into the tank. The center of gravity block 12 prevents the support 2 from tipping over, improving stability.

[0053] In the above-mentioned aspects, this application allows the water in the cleaned container 6 to be automatically drained under the action of gravity, and the container 6 does not need to be supported by an internal bracket on the drain rack, thereby avoiding secondary contamination of the container 6 and affecting its cleanliness. In addition, the multiple slots 31 on the rack 3 can simultaneously drain multiple containers 6, and the shape of the bottle holder 4 can be diversified to fit different shapes of containers 6; the detachable connection structure between the bottle holder 4 and the rack 3 not only ensures that the rack 3 will not be deformed under stress when not in use, but also improves the adaptability to different containers 6, allowing for flexible combination and use of the bottle holder 4 according to the type of container 6 that needs to be drained.
