Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cell storage technology, specifically to a cell storage box that is easy to pick up and put down. Background Technology
[0002] When cells are cultured in experiments, they are mostly stored in boxes to facilitate transportation and movement. Since some cells need to be stored under certain low-temperature conditions, the existing storage boxes either have a refrigeration mechanism inside, or when storing stem cell test tubes, the box is filled with cold air or ice packs are placed inside.
[0003] Utility model patent CN219838889U discloses a stem cell storage and transportation box that is easy to access. The box includes a base, characterized in that a motor is fixedly connected to the center of the bottom of the base; an electric push rod is fixedly connected to the top of the motor's drive shaft; a tray is fixedly connected to the top of the telescopic end of the electric push rod; a support column is fixedly connected to the center of the top of the tray; a limiting plate is fixedly connected to the top of the support column; a limiting hole is formed inside the limiting plate; a box body is fixedly connected to the top edge of the base; an observation window and a handle are provided on the outer wall of the box body; a box lid is provided on the top of the box body; an arc-shaped groove is formed on the top of the box lid; and a sealing plate is provided inside the arc-shaped groove. This technical solution utilizes the cooperation between the motor, tray, limiting plate, and arc-shaped groove. The motor drives the tray to rotate, adjusting the position of the stem cell tubes, and the arc-shaped groove facilitates direct removal of the tubes to be used without opening the box lid. This not only makes storage and retrieval convenient but also reduces the loss of cold air, facilitating the storage of remaining stem cell tubes.
[0004] In the above technical solution, the tray is driven by an electric push rod to lift multiple test tubes, thereby adjusting the distance between the test tubes and the lid, making it easier for the user to pick up and put down the test tubes. However, during the movement of the tray, the multiple test tubes move synchronously. That is to say, when the tray moves upward to its limit distance, the test tube to be taken out cannot enter the arc groove due to the constraint of the other test tubes (the top of the other test tubes will touch the bottom surface of the lid). This causes the user to have to reach through the arc groove and pinch the test tube to take it out, making it difficult to pick up and put down the test tubes. In order to reasonably improve this situation, this utility model proposes a cell storage box that is easy to pick up and put down. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a cell storage box that is easy to handle, in order to solve the problem that it is difficult to handle test tubes in the above-mentioned technical solutions.

[0017] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments, and the structural features will be more detailed in conjunction with the working state. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0018] Please see Figures 1 to 6 This utility model provides a cell storage box that is easy to place and retrieve, and the technical solution is as follows: A cell storage box that is easy to pick up and put in, as shown in the reference Figures 1 to 6The device includes a box body 1 and a cover body 11, which are detachably connected by a latch. It also includes a limiting frame 2, limiting perforations 3, a transparent partition 4, a through hole 5, a plug 6, and a pushing unit 7. The limiting frame 2 is vertically installed inside the box body 1. The limiting perforations 3 are distributed in a ring around the central axis of the box body 1 on the limiting frame 2. The test tube is vertically inserted into the limiting perforations 3. The transparent partition 4 is rotatably installed inside the box body 1 and is located on top of the limiting frame 2. The user can observe the information on the top of the test tube through the transparent partition 4. By rotating the transparent partition 4, the position of the through hole 5 on it can be adjusted so that the through hole 5 can be aligned with different limiting perforations 3. Multiple pushing units 7 are located below the limiting frame 2 and correspond one-to-one with multiple limiting perforations 3. Under the push of the pushing unit 7, the test tube can move upward within the limiting perforation 3 and pass through the through hole 5 that is aligned with the limiting perforation 3.
[0019] This invention uses a transparent partition 4 to isolate the cold air inside the box 1 from the outside, thus ensuring that when the user opens the cover 11 and rotates the transparent partition 4 to align the through hole 5 with the test tube, the cold air inside the box 1 will not leak out. When taking out the test tube, simply pull out the plug 6 that seals the through hole and trigger the pushing unit 7 at the bottom of the test tube to push the test tube upward, so that the top of the test tube passes through the through hole 5 and moves to the top of the transparent partition 4, making it easy for the user to take it out.
[0020] As a further optimization of the transparent partition 4 in this embodiment, refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 The transparent partition 4 is designed to facilitate the insertion of test tubes into the multiple limiting perforations 3. It includes a ring plate 41 and a cover plate 42. The ring plate 41 is rotatably mounted to the inner wall of the box body 1 via bearings. The cover plate 42 is made of polycarbonate and is transparent. The cover plate 42 is hinged to the top of the ring plate 41. When the user lifts the cover plate 42, the through hole 43 in the middle of the ring plate 41 is exposed. At this time, the user can insert the test tubes one by one into the multiple limiting perforations 3 through the through hole 43, which is quite convenient. After the test tubes are placed, The user can drive the cover plate 42 to close the through hole 43 on the ring plate 41. Finally, when the user connects the box 1 to the cover 11, the bottom surface of the cover 11 will abut against the top of the block 6 that blocks the through hole 5 on the cover plate 42, thereby restraining the movement of the cover plate 42. During the process of taking out the test tube, when rotating the ring plate 41 to align the through hole 5 on the cover plate 42 with the test tube, it is only necessary to remove the block 6 from the block 6 and then push the test tube up by the pushing unit 7. There is no need to open the cover plate 42 to release the cold air inside the box 1.
[0021] As one implementation of the driving unit 7 in this embodiment, refer to Figure 2 , Figure 5 and Figure 6The pushing unit 7 is designed for convenient tube removal and includes a mounting block 71, a slider 72, a connecting rod 73, a stop plate 74, a compression spring 75, and a locking mechanism 76. The mounting block 71 is installed on the inner bottom surface of the box 1 and is vertically positioned directly below the upper limit through hole 3 of the limit frame 2. The slide groove 77 is located inside the mounting block 71, and the slider 72 slides vertically with the slide groove 77. The bottom end of the connecting rod 73 slides through the mounting block 71 and is vertically connected to the slider 72. The compression spring 75 provides a thrust to push the slider 72 upward, so that the slider 72 can drive the stop plate 74 to move upward through the connecting rod 73, thereby lifting the test tube. When the user inserts the test tube, the stop plate 74 drives the slider 72 through the connecting rod 73 to compress the compression spring 75, and then locks the slider 72 through the locking mechanism 76. When it is necessary to remove the test tube, the user unlocks the slider 72 by releasing the locking mechanism 76, and the slider 72 can slide upward under the action of the compression spring 75 and lift the test tube.
[0022] As one embodiment of the locking mechanism 76 in this embodiment, refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 The locking mechanism 76 has the same structure and principle as the existing SD card automatic ejection mechanism. It can lock the slider 72 when the test tube is inserted and release the lock when the test tube is pressed. It includes a locking plate 761, a hook post 762, and a V-block 763. The locking plate 761 is hinged to the bottom of the slide groove 77. The corners of the V-groove 764 are transitioned by an arc surface. The V-block 763 has a uniform gap within the V-groove 764. The hook post 762 is vertically connected to the side of the locking plate 761 facing the V-groove 764. When the slider 72 slides up and down, it can slide within the gap between the V-block 763 and the V-groove 764. When the user inserts the test tube, the abutment plate 74 drives the slider 72 to compress the spring 75 via the connecting rod 73 and move it to the designated position. The hook 762 can slide within the gap and move above the V-block 763 with the help of the arc surface at the top of the V-groove 764. When the spring 75 drives the slider 72 to move upward, the hook 762 is locked in the notch at the top of the V-block 763. When it is necessary to remove the test tube, the user uses his finger or a tool to press the top of the test tube through the through hole 5, causing the abutment 74 to drive the slider 72 to move downward briefly through the connecting rod, forcing the hook 762 to disengage from the notch and move to both sides of the V-block 763 through the protruding part at the top of the V-groove 764. At this time, the hook 762 will not obstruct the movement of the V-block 763. The spring 75 can release energy to push the slider 72 and the abutment 74 upward, pushing the test tube out for easy removal by the user.
[0023] As a further optimization of the limiting frame 2 in this embodiment, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 4The limiting frame 2 is designed to improve the stability and safety of test tube storage. It includes a first limiting plate 21, a second limiting plate 22 and a connecting plate 23. The first limiting plate 21 and the second limiting plate 22 are installed in the box 1 through the connecting plate 23. The test tube can only contact the top of the abutment plate 74 after passing through the limiting holes 3 opened on the first limiting plate 21 and the second limiting plate 22. That is, the first limiting plate 21 and the second limiting plate 22, which are set up above and below, can form two-point support and limiting for the test tube placed in the limiting holes 3.
[0024] As a further optimization of the driving unit 7 in this embodiment, in order to enable disassembly and replacement after a single driving unit 7 is damaged, refer to Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 The outer diameters of the first limiting plate 21 and the second limiting plate 22 are both smaller than the inner diameter of the through hole 43. When the user inserts his finger into the limiting through hole 3 on the first limiting plate 21, the first limiting plate 21 can be lifted, and the connecting plate 23 can be pulled out from the cylindrical block 12 on the bottom surface of the box 1. Then the limiting frame 2 can be taken out from the through hole 43 of the ring plate 41. The mounting hole 13 is vertically opened on the top of the cylindrical block 12. The mounting block 71 is the carrier in the pushing unit 7. By detachably installing the mounting block 71 in the mounting hole 13, after a single pushing unit 7 is damaged, the mounting block 71 can be removed from the mounting hole 13 after the limiting frame 2 is taken out from the through hole 43 of the ring plate 41 by lifting the cover plate 42, so as to replace and maintain it.
[0025] As one embodiment of the mounting block 71 in this example, to facilitate the assembly and disassembly of the mounting block 71, refer to... Figure 2 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 A magnet 78 is attached to the bottom of the mounting block 71, which can be magnetically attracted to the mounting hole 13. When disassembling the pushing unit 7, no tools are required. The mounting block 71 can be pulled out of the mounting hole 13 by hand after the slider 72 and the groove 77 come into contact. When installing the pushing unit 7, the mounting block 71 only needs to be aligned and inserted into the mounting hole 13, and the mounting block 71 can be attracted and fixed by the magnet 78.
[0026] As one embodiment of the first limiting disk 21 in this embodiment, refer to Figure 4The sleeve 8 at the bottom of the first limiting plate 21 corresponds one-to-one with the limiting hole 3. The limiting hole 3 can be extended through the sleeve 8 to guide the movement of the test tube. When the user presses the test tube to release the locking mechanism 76 from fixing the slider 72, the downward-moving test tube will not fall off the limiting hole 3 on the first limiting plate 21. This ensures that the first limiting plate 21 and the second limiting plate 22 can provide two-point support and limit the test tube during the movement.
[0027] Usage process: I. Test tube placement stage 1. Preparation and opening: The user opens the cover 11 on the box body 1, and then lifts the cover 42 on the transparent partition 4 to expose the through hole 43 and the limiting bracket 2.
[0028] 2. Placing test tubes: The user can insert the test tubes storing cells one by one into the limiting holes 3 of the limiting frame 2 through the through hole 43. During this process, the bottom of the test tube will press down on the abutment plate 74. The abutment plate 74 drives the slider 72 to compress the compression spring 75 through the connecting rod 73. Then the locking mechanism 76 will act and lock the slider 72.
[0029] 3. Sealing box 1: The user drives the cover plate 42 to close the through hole 43. Finally, the user locks the cover 11 and the box 1 together with the latch to complete the seal and provide a stable low temperature storage environment for the test tube.
[0030] II. Removing the test tube 1. Positioning and preparation: After opening the cover 11 on the box 1, the user can directly observe the test tube information through the cover 42 without lifting the cover plate 42. Then, the user rotates the ring plate 41 to rotate the through hole 5 on the cover plate 42 to the top of the target test tube.
[0031] 2. Unlock: Remove the plug 6 on the through hole 5, and then the user presses down on the top of the target test tube through the hole. This pressing down of the test tube will trigger the push unit 7 below, releasing its locked state.
[0032] 3. Pushing the test tube: After the slider 72 is released from its locked state, the compression spring 75 releases energy and pushes it upward. The connecting rod 73 drives the abutment plate 74 to lift the test tube upward, so that the top of the test tube passes through the through hole 5 and rises above the cover plate 42, making it convenient for the user to pick it up directly by hand.
[0033] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
