Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of laboratory equipment handling and storage technology, specifically to a universal shock-absorbing handling box for laboratory glassware. Background Technology

[0002] In the laboratory, glassware such as test tubes, colorimetric tubes, and slender graduated cylinders are easily damaged during handling due to their long, thin walls and slender shapes, caused by collisions, tipping, or external impacts. Currently, the common method of handling glassware is to insert it into foam boards, pearl cotton, or custom-made perforated grids.

[0003] However, the size of the foam board or the grid is fixed and can only fit a vessel of a specific diameter. If the gap between the foam board and the vessel is too large, it will not provide shock absorption and will cause the vessel to shake and collide during transportation. If the gap is too small, although it can avoid collisions caused by shaking, it will be difficult to pick up and put down the vessel due to the small gap.

[0004] Therefore, the problem that this utility model urgently needs to solve is to provide a universal shock-absorbing transport box that can clamp glassware to prevent it from shaking and is also convenient for users to pick up and put down. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the aforementioned technical problems, the purpose of this utility model is to overcome the limitations of fixed-size foam boards or perforated panels, which can only fit containers of specific diameters. Furthermore, excessively large gaps between the foam board and the container fail to provide shock absorption, leading to easy shaking and collisions during transport. Conversely, while insufficient gaps may prevent collisions, they make handling difficult. Therefore, this utility model provides a universal shock-absorbing transport box that can clamp glass containers to prevent shaking while facilitating easy handling by the user.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides a universal shock-absorbing transport box for laboratory glassware, comprising: a box body, wherein a plurality of placement slots are spaced apart inside the box body; clamping shells, wherein clamping shells are respectively provided on opposite sides of the placement slots, the upper ends of the clamping shells are hinged in the placement slots, and each clamping shell has a certain gap with the side wall of the glassware it is adapted to; airbags, wherein an airbag is provided in each placement slot on the side away from the hinge end of each clamping shell on opposite sides; and an air pump, wherein the air pump is provided on one side of the box body and is capable of inflating each airbag.

[0007] Preferably, each clamping housing is further provided with a reset elastic element on its outer side that is connected to the inner wall of the placement groove.

[0008] Preferably, each airbag has a bulge surrounding its inner wall, and a number of connecting pipes that can communicate with other airbags are arranged around its periphery.

[0009] Preferably, the clamping housing is an arc shape that fits the inner wall of the glassware to be clamped.

[0010] Preferably, the inner wall of the clamping housing is provided with a flexible interlayer.

[0011] Preferably, the box body is also provided with hidden grip grooves on opposite sides.

[0012] Preferably, the bottom of the box is also provided with anti-slip texture.

[0013] According to the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of this utility model compared with the prior art are as follows: This application inserts the glassware into the clamping shells on both sides of each placement slot. Since there is a certain gap between each clamping shell and the side wall of the glassware it is compatible with when the airbag is not inflated, the insertion process is very smooth and unobstructed. Then, the air pump is started to drive the bulges on the inner walls of all the airbags to bulge through the integrated air circuit formed by the connecting pipes, thereby driving each clamping shell to rotate around its hinge, clamping the glassware and preventing it from shaking. When the glassware is removed, the air pump is started to extract the gas in the airbag through the integrated air circuit. At this time, the bulges become smaller, and each clamping shell gradually returns to its original position under the action of the reset elastic element. The airbag plays a damping and buffering role. At this time, there is a certain gap between the clamping shell and the glassware, and the user can easily remove the glassware. Thus, the glassware is clamped to prevent it from shaking and is convenient for the user to pick up and put down.

[0020] To further understand the features, technical means, and specific objectives and functions achieved by this utility model, the following detailed description of this utility model is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0021] Reference Figures 1-3 A universal shock-absorbing transport box for laboratory glassware includes: a box body 1, wherein a plurality of placement slots 11 are spaced apart inside the box body 1; clamping shells 2, wherein clamping shells 2 are respectively provided on opposite sides of the placement slots 11, the upper ends of the clamping shells 2 are hinged in the placement slots 11, and each clamping shell 2 has a certain gap with the side wall of the glassware it is adapted to; an airbag 3, wherein an airbag 3 is provided around each clamping shell 2 on opposite sides of each placement slot 11 away from its hinge end; and an air pump 4, wherein the air pump 4 is provided on one side of the box body 1 and is capable of inflating each airbag 3.

[0022] When the airbag 3 is not inflated, there is a certain gap between each clamping shell 2 and the side wall of the glassware it is adapted to. The airbag 3 is controlled by the air pump 4 to drive the clamping shell 2 to rotate around its hinge end, thereby clamping the glassware to prevent it from shaking. Compared with clamping directly through the airbag 3, the smaller expansion force of the airbag 3 acts on the lever arm on the lower side of the clamping shell 2, which can generate a more concentrated and stronger clamping force at its lower end. This "small force can move a big weight" effect makes the clamping very firm, especially suitable for preventing the shaking and tipping of slender and tall vessels.

[0023] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 Each clamping housing 2 is also provided with a reset elastic element 5 on the outside, which is connected to the inner wall of the placement groove 11.

[0024] The reset elastic element 5 described in this application is hinged at one end to the outside of the clamping housing 2 and at the other end to the inner wall of the placement groove 11 to prevent the reset elastic element 5 from constantly twisting at its two ends, which would cause it to break and affect its service life. The reset elastic element 5 can be a spring, a damping spring, etc. After the reset elastic element 5 is installed, the clamping housing 2 will be limited, so that the clamping housing 2 will not easily shake when the air pump 4 is not inflated.

[0025] Reference Figure 5 Each airbag 3 has a bulge 31 surrounding its inner wall, and several connecting pipes 32 that can communicate with other airbags 3 are arranged around its periphery.

[0026] The air pump 4 of this application is connected to an integrated air circuit formed by the connecting pipe 32. By starting the air pump 4, all the bulges 31 can be inflated, thereby causing each clamping housing 2 to clamp each glassware. The configuration of the integrated air circuit is existing technology and will not be described in detail here.

[0027] Reference Figure 4The clamping housing 2 is generally arc-shaped to fit the inner wall of the glassware to be clamped.

[0028] The large surface contact area of ​​this application provides greater and more uniform static friction, and the vessel is firmly "held" in the arc-shaped gripper, which also prevents excessive pressure from damaging the glassware.

[0029] Reference Figure 4 The inner wall of the clamping housing 2 is provided with a flexible interlayer 21.

[0030] The elastomer material used in this application can be soft silicone, natural rubber, polyurethane (PU), etc. These materials are soft, elastic, and can provide excellent cushioning and fit. The arc-shaped macroscopic contour provides initial, large-area wrapping guidance, while the flexible interlayer 21 undergoes microscopic deformation under pressure, further filling all the tiny gaps between the interlayer and the vessel, achieving an upgrade from "surface contact" to "full fit".

[0031] Reference Figure 2 The box body 1 is also provided with hidden grip grooves 12 on opposite sides.

[0032] The concealed grip groove 12 in this application makes it easier for users to stack and arrange the boxes 1.

[0033] Reference Figure 2 The bottom of the box body 1 is also provided with anti-slip texture 13.

[0034] The anti-slip texture 13 of this application can prevent the box 1 from sliding accidentally, reducing the risk of collision and tipping.

[0035] When using the device provided by this utility model, the glassware is inserted between the clamping shells 2 on opposite sides of each placement slot 11. Since there is a certain gap between each clamping shell 2 and the side wall of the glassware when the airbag 3 is not inflated, the insertion process is very smooth and unobstructed. Then, the air pump 4 is started to drive the bulges 31 on the inner wall of all the airbags 3 to inflate through the integrated air passage formed by the connecting pipe 32, thereby driving each clamping shell 2 to rotate around its hinge, clamping the glassware and preventing it from shaking. When removing the glassware, the air pump 4 is started to extract the gas from the airbag 3 through the integrated air passage. At this time, the bulges 31 become smaller, and each clamping shell 2 gradually returns to its original position under the action of the reset elastic element 5. The airbag 3 plays a damping and buffering role. At this time, there is a certain gap between the clamping shell 2 and the glassware, and the user can easily remove the glassware. Thus, the glassware is clamped to prevent it from shaking and is easy for the user to pick up and put down.

[0036] The preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the specific details of the above embodiments. Within the scope of the technical concept of the present invention, various simple modifications can be made to the technical solution of the present invention, and these simple modifications all fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0037] It should also be noted that the various specific technical features described in the above specific embodiments can be combined in any suitable way without contradiction. In order to avoid unnecessary repetition, this utility model will not describe the various possible combinations separately.

[0038] Furthermore, various different embodiments of this utility model can be combined in any way, as long as they do not violate the spirit of this utility model, they should also be regarded as the content disclosed by this utility model.
