Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of adjustable turntable technology, and in particular to an adjustable reagent bottle transport turntable mechanism. Background Technology
[0002] In automated laboratories or production lines in the fields of chemistry, biology and medicine, turntable transport mechanisms are often used to efficiently and orderly transfer materials such as reagent bottles. Traditional turntable mechanisms typically include a turntable driven by a motor, and multiple fixed-size clamping slots or material troughs on the turntable for placing reagent bottles.
[0003] However, in practical applications, different experimental projects or production batches may require reagent bottles of different diameters. Since the existing clamping slots are fixed in size, a single device can often only accommodate one or a few sizes of reagent bottles. When it is necessary to change to a different size of reagent bottle, the entire turntable or clamping component must be replaced. This not only makes the operation cumbersome and reduces production efficiency, but also increases equipment costs, greatly reducing the versatility and flexibility of the equipment.
[0004] In addition, during the start-up, stopping, and high-speed operation of this type of turntable mechanism, vibrations are generated due to the operation of the motor and transmission system. These vibrations are transmitted to the turntable, causing the reagent bottles to shake or even tip over during transportation. On the one hand, this may result in expensive reagents being splashed out, causing waste and pollution. On the other hand, there is also a safety hazard of bottle collision and breakage, affecting the stability and reliability of the entire automated process.
[0005] Therefore, this utility model proposes an adjustable reagent bottle transport turntable mechanism to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art. Utility Model Content
[0006] In view of the problems in the existing reagent bottle transport turntable mechanism, such as the fixed size of the clamping device, the inability to be compatible with various sizes of reagent bottles, resulting in poor versatility, and the vibration during transportation causing the turntable to shake, affecting the stability of transportation, and even causing reagent spillage or bottle damage, this utility model aims to provide an adjustable material tank reagent bottle transport turntable mechanism with an improved structure that can effectively solve the above problems.

[0008] The clamping mechanism includes a hollow plate forming a clamping groove one and a clamping plate forming a clamping groove two; the fixed plate is fixedly connected to the rotating disk, the fixed plate is provided with a sliding groove, and the clamping plate slides with the sliding groove through a sliding block to adjust the distance between the clamping groove one and the clamping groove two; and the clamping mechanism is also provided with a limiting block and a limiting plate for locking the position of the clamping plate.
[0009] Furthermore, the shock absorption mechanism includes an arc-shaped block, a connecting rod, and a hydraulic rod. The arc-shaped block is disposed at the bottom of the rotating disk and is used to be pressed when the rotating disk shakes. The connecting rod is used to transmit the motion of the arc-shaped block and drive the hydraulic rod to extend and retract to absorb vibration.
[0010] Preferably, the motor is mounted on the top of the base and is used to drive the worm gear, the worm gear meshing with the worm wheel, and the worm wheel driving the rotating column to rotate in order to drive the rotating disk to rotate.
[0011] Preferably, the clamping mechanism further includes an L-shaped plate, which is fixedly connected to the clamping plate; the limiting plate is provided with a plurality of limiting holes, and the limiting block selectively inserts into different limiting holes and acts on the L-shaped plate to fix the clamping plate in different positions.
[0012] Preferably, the hollow plate is further provided with a baffle, which is used to radially limit the reagent bottle placed in the clamping mechanism.
[0013] Preferably, the bottom of the rotating disk is provided with an annular groove for the arc-shaped block to be accommodated and slid.
[0014] Preferably, the shock absorption mechanism further includes a U-shaped frame, one end of the connecting rod is connected to the arc-shaped block, and the other end is connected to the U-shaped frame, the U-shaped frame being used to transmit the movement of the connecting rod.
[0015] Preferably, the shock absorption mechanism further includes a connecting plate and a moving block; the movement of the U-shaped frame drives the connecting plate to rotate, the connecting plate drives the moving block to move, and the movement of the moving block ultimately drives the hydraulic rod to extend or retract.
[0016] Preferably, the base is provided with a moving groove, and the moving block moves back and forth within the moving groove.
[0017] This utility model has the following beneficial effects: 1. This utility model solves the problems of existing transport turntable clamping devices having a single size, incompatibility with different sizes of reagent bottles, and poor versatility by setting a movable clamping plate and moving the clamping plate in the sliding groove via a sliding block, and then using the cooperation of a limiting plug and multiple limiting holes for positioning and locking. It achieves the technical effect of being able to quickly and conveniently adjust the clamping range to adapt to reagent bottles of different sizes, thereby improving the versatility and applicability of the equipment.
[0018] 2. This utility model solves the problem in the prior art where the shaking of the rotating turntable is converted into the extension and retraction motion of the hydraulic rod through a series of linked components such as the arc block, connecting rod, and moving block. This mechanism effectively absorbs and buffers the vibration impact, significantly improves the stability and reliability of the turntable operation, and ensures the safety of the reagent bottles during transportation.

[0021] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this utility model, and not all of them. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.
[0022] Example: Please refer to Figures 1 to 4 An adjustable reagent bottle transport turntable mechanism includes a base 1, a rotating disk 5 rotatably mounted on the base 1, a clamping mechanism 2 on the upper surface of the rotating disk 5, and a shock-absorbing mechanism 3 between the rotating disk 5 and the base 1. The base 1 serves as the mounting base for the entire mechanism. A motor 7, acting as a drive source, is mounted on the top of the base 1. The output shaft of the motor 7 is fixedly connected to a worm gear 8, which meshes with a worm wheel 6 for transmission. The worm wheel 6 is fixedly connected to the bottom of a rotating column 4, which passes through the base 1 and is fixedly connected to the center of the rotating disk 5, thereby driving the rotating disk 5 to rotate. The clamping mechanism 2 is used to clamp different sizes of reagent bottles. The reagent bottle is clamped. The clamping mechanism 2 includes a hollow plate 201 fixed on the rotating disk 5 and a movable clamping plate 207. The hollow plate 201 is provided with a clamping groove 202, and the clamping plate 207 is provided with a clamping groove 208. The distance between the clamping groove 202 and the clamping groove 208 can be adjusted by moving the clamping plate 207. The shock absorption mechanism 3 is used to absorb the vibration generated by the rotating disk 5 during rotation. The shock absorption mechanism 3 includes an arc-shaped block 307 that contacts the bottom of the rotating disk 5 and a hydraulic rod 302 installed on the base 1. The arc-shaped block 307 transmits the vibration of the rotating disk 5 to the hydraulic rod 302 for buffering and absorption.
[0023] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3The clamping mechanism 2 includes a fixed plate 204 fixed to the rotating disk 5. A sliding groove 205 extending along the length of the fixed plate 204 is formed on the fixed plate 204. The function of the fixed plate 204 is to provide precise guidance and support for the movement of the clamping plate 207. Simultaneously, a sliding block 206 is integrally formed or fixedly connected to the bottom of the clamping plate 207. The shape and size of the sliding block 206 are adapted to the cross-sectional shape and size of the sliding groove 205. In the assembled state, the clamping plate 207 slides within the sliding groove 205 of the fixed plate 204 via the sliding block 206, ensuring that the clamping plate 207 can smoothly perform linear reciprocating motion during adjustment, thereby changing the distance between clamping groove one 202 and clamping groove two 208. The clamping plate 207 is reliably locked after adjustment. The clamping mechanism 2 also includes a limiting plate 209, an L-shaped plate 211, and a limiting block 212. The limiting plate 209 is fixedly connected to the fixing plate 204. Multiple limiting holes 210 arranged in an array are opened on the limiting plate 209 along the extension direction of the sliding groove 205. The L-shaped plate 211 is fixedly connected to the clamping plate 207. When locking is required, the limiting block 212 is inserted into the L-shaped plate 211 by passing through the selected limiting holes 210 in sequence. The clamping plate 207 can be positioned and fixed. In addition, a baffle 203 is provided inside the hollow plate 201. The baffle 203 is used to provide auxiliary support for the body of the reagent bottle to prevent the reagent bottle from tipping over during transportation.
[0024] As a preferred driving embodiment, the structure for driving the rotating disk 5 includes a motor 7 mounted on the top of the base 1. The output shaft of the motor 7 is fixedly connected to a worm gear 8. The worm gear 8 meshes with the teeth of a worm wheel 6 for transmission. The center of the worm wheel 6 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the rotating column 4, and the top end of the rotating column 4 passes through the base 1 and is fixedly connected to the center of the rotating disk 5. As a preferred embodiment of the shock absorption mechanism 3, please refer to... Figure 4 The bottom of the rotating disk 5 has an annular groove 308 for accommodating the arc-shaped block 307. The upper surface of the arc-shaped block 307 slides in contact with the bottom of the annular groove 308. The top end of the connecting rod 306 is rotatably connected to the arc-shaped block 307, and the bottom end of the connecting rod 306 is rotatably connected to the top end of the U-shaped frame 305. The bottom end of the U-shaped frame 305 is rotatably connected to one end of the connecting plate 304, and the other end of the connecting plate 304 is rotatably connected to the moving block 303. The middle part of the connecting plate 304 is rotatably connected to the base 1 via a pin. The base 1 also has a moving groove 301 for accommodating and guiding the moving block 303. The moving block 303 is connected to the piston rod end of the hydraulic rod 302 via a connecting rod, and the cylinder end of the hydraulic rod 302 is fixed to the base 1. For a preferred embodiment of the locking method of the clamping mechanism 2, please refer to... Figure 2 and Figure 3The L-shaped plate 211 is vertically fixed to the side of the clamping plate 207 away from the clamping groove 208, and the limiting plate 209 is fixed to the top of the fixing plate 204. Multiple limiting holes 210 are provided on the limiting plate 209 along the length of the sliding groove 205. As a further improvement to the clamping mechanism 2, the clamping groove 202 of the hollow plate 201 is integrally formed or fixedly provided with a baffle 203.
[0025] Working principle: When using the equipment, the motor 7 at the top of the base 1 must first be started to drive the worm gear 8, which in turn drives the rotating column 4 to rotate. This causes the rotating disk 5 to rotate the clamping mechanism 2 at the top. When different sized reagent tubes need to be placed into the clamping mechanism 2, the limiting block 212 is first pulled out from the limiting hole 210 at the top of the limiting plate 209 to release the limitation on the L-shaped plate 211. At the same time, the clamping plate 207 is pushed to move, causing the sliding block 206 to move back and forth inside the sliding groove 205 on the fixed plate 204. This increases or decreases the distance between the first clamping groove 202 and the second clamping groove 208 to accommodate different sized reagent tubes. The hollow plate 201... The baffle 203 prevents the reagent tube from shifting. When adjusted to the appropriate size, the limiting block 212 is inserted into the corresponding limiting hole 210 and L-shaped plate 211 to fix the clamping plate 207. When the equipment is working, vibration is generated, causing the rotating disk 5 to shake. The shock absorption mechanism 3 can absorb the vibration force and reduce the shaking. At this time, the rotating disk 5 presses down on the arc-shaped block 307 sliding inside the annular groove 308, causing the connecting rod 306 to move up and down. At the same time, the U-shaped frame 305 moves down. At this time, the connecting plate 304 rotates, causing the moving block 303 to move inside the moving groove 301. The hydraulic rod 302 extends and retracts to absorb the vibration force, reduce the shaking, and maintain stability.
