Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of cell culture technology, and specifically relates to a separable cell culture plate. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of life science research, cell culture is the cornerstone of many cutting-edge works such as basic research, drug development, and regenerative medicine. As the core tool for in vitro cell culture, cell culture plates are closely linked to the needs of the life science field in terms of technological development.

[0003] For example, Chinese patent CN214694222U discloses a separable cell culture plate, including a cell culture base plate, a cell culture top plate, and cell culture dishes. The cell culture base plate has a placement cavity inside, and several sets of equidistant partition rods are fixedly installed inside the placement cavity. The partition rods divide the placement cavity into several sets of equidistant independent cavities. Cell culture dishes are placed inside the independent cavities. A first identification plate is set on the top surface of the cell culture base plate near the cell culture dishes. Metal blocks are embedded in the four corners of the top surface of the cell culture base plate. The cell culture top plate is placed on top of the cell culture base plate.

[0004] While the aforementioned patents enable rapid replacement of individual cell culture dishes, the use of metal blocks and magnetic pillars makes the connection between the cell culture base plate and the cell culture top plate unstable. This can lead to detachment when subjected to vibration, causing the cell culture plate to fall and be damaged. Furthermore, in cell culture experiments, it is often necessary to combine multiple culture units, such as in co-culture experiments. Existing technologies cannot achieve horizontal splicing, which greatly limits the flexibility of cell culture plate usage. Utility Model Content

A driving assembly 65 is provided on one side of the bidirectional screw 64. By setting up the connecting structure, the docking block 4 is inserted into the docking slot 5. The driving assembly 65 drives the bidirectional screw 64 to rotate. The threads on both sides of the bidirectional screw 64 are opposite, causing the sliders 63 on both sides to move. The sliders 63 drive the insertion rod 61 to move, and the insertion rod 61 inserts into the insertion slot 62. At this time, the docking block 4 and the docking slot 5 are connected and fixed, making the first culture plate 1 and the second culture plate 2 stable and preventing them from falling and being damaged by impact.

[0016] refer to Figure 3The driving assembly 65 includes a driving rod 651, which is rotatably connected to one side of the first culture plate 1. A first toothed cone 652 is fixedly connected to one side of the driving rod 651, and a second toothed cone 653 is meshed with one side of the first toothed cone 652. The second toothed cone 653 is fixedly connected to the bidirectional screw 64. A torsion wheel 654 is fixedly connected to one side of the driving rod 651, and the torsion wheel 654 is rotatably connected to the first culture plate 1. By setting the driving assembly 65, the torsion wheel 654 can be manually rotated, causing the driving rod 651 to rotate. Through the meshing of the first toothed cone 652 and the second toothed cone 653, power can be transmitted to the bidirectional screw 64.

[0017] refer to Figure 1 The splicing mechanism 7 includes a splicing frame 71, which is fixedly connected to the side of the second culture plate 2 near the first culture plate 1. A splicing block 72 is slidably connected inside the splicing frame 71, and the splicing block 72 is fixedly connected to the first culture plate 1. Guide blocks 711 are fixedly connected to both sides of the inside of the splicing frame 71. Guide grooves 721 are provided on both sides of the splicing block 72, and the guide blocks 711 are slidably connected to the guide grooves 721. A snap-fit ​​component 73 is provided between the splicing block 72 and the splicing frame 71. By setting the splicing structure, the splicing block 72 is aligned with the splicing frame 71 and inserted. The guide blocks 711 slide along the guide grooves 721 to ensure accurate splicing direction and stable connection between the first culture plate 1 and the second culture plate 2. The horizontal splicing function meets the needs of complex experiments such as cell co-culture.

[0018] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3 The snap-fit ​​assembly 73 includes a groove 733, which is formed on both sides inside the guide groove 721. A spring 732 is fixedly connected inside the groove 733. A snap-fit ​​block 731 is fixedly connected to the top of the spring 732. The snap-fit ​​block 731 has an arc-shaped structure. A snap-fit ​​hole 735 is formed inside the guide block 711. The snap-fit ​​block 731 is movably connected to the snap-fit ​​hole 735. A guide rod 734 is fixedly connected to the side of the snap-fit ​​block 731 near the spring 732. The snap-fit ​​assembly 73 is slidably connected to the groove 733 on one side of the guide rod 734. When the splicing block 72 is inserted into the splicing frame 71, the guide block 711 squeezes the snap-fit ​​block 731 to retract it into the groove 733. When the snap-fit ​​block 731 is aligned with the snap-fit ​​hole 735, the spring 732 pushes the snap-fit ​​block 731 to pop out and snap into the snap-fit ​​hole 735, realizing quick connection and disassembly.

[0019] Operating principle and advantages: The docking block 4 on the second culture plate 2 is inserted into the docking groove 5 of the first culture plate 1, completing the initial positioning of the first culture plate 1 and the second culture plate 2. The torsion wheel 654 is manually rotated, which drives the drive rod 651 to rotate. Through the meshing of the first toothed cone 652 and the second toothed cone 653, the power is transmitted to the bidirectional screw 64. The drive assembly 65 drives the bidirectional screw 64 to rotate. The threads on both sides of the bidirectional screw 64 are opposite, causing the sliders 63 on both sides to move. The sliders 63 drive the insertion rod 61 to move, and the insertion rod 61 inserts into the insertion groove 62. At this time, the docking block 4 is connected and fixed to the docking groove 5. Compared with the traditional connection method, it can provide a stronger connection force, effectively resist the influence of external forces such as vibration and collision, and prevent the first culture plate 1 and the second culture plate 2 from being affected. The culture plate 2 is detached to prevent it from falling and being damaged, ensuring the integrity of the cell culture environment. When splicing is required, the first culture plate 1 and the second culture plate 2 are separated, and the splicing block 72 is inserted into the splicing frame 71. The guide block 711 slides along the guide groove 721 to connect the first culture plate 1 and the second culture plate 2. When the splicing block 72 is inserted into the splicing frame 71, the guide block 711 presses the locking block 731 to retract into the groove 733. When the locking block 731 is aligned with the locking hole 735, the spring 732 pushes the locking block 731 to pop out and lock into the locking hole 735, thus fixing the first culture plate 1 and the second culture plate 2. This meets the diverse experimental needs such as cell co-culture, and researchers can flexibly combine culture units according to experimental purposes, improving the flexibility of experimental operations.
