Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of reagent placement technology, and particularly relates to reagent storage devices. Background Technology

[0002] A reagent storage container is a specialized piece of equipment designed specifically for laboratories. Typically made of metal, its main body features a porous structure that allows it to neatly and stably hold a large number of reagent tubes. This structure not only facilitates centralized access and management by laboratory personnel but also ensures that reagent centrifuge tubes remain neatly arranged throughout various experimental procedures, contributing to improved experimental organization and operational efficiency.

[0003] In existing technologies, conventional reagent storage containers typically consist of an upper cover and a lower base. Both the cover and base have multiple rows of holes matching the dimensions of standard reagent tubes, which clamp the tubes together to ensure stability during storage and handling. However, this structure has certain shortcomings: the cover and base usually lack a reliable connection and fixing mechanism, making them prone to relative displacement or misalignment when the device is moved. This not only affects positioning accuracy but may also pose a risk of collision, tilting, or even tipping over to the reagent bottles placed within the holes, threatening reagent safety. Therefore, it is necessary to optimize and redesign the structure of existing reagent storage containers. Utility Model Content

[0004] This utility model provides a reagent storage device, which aims to solve the problem that some reagent storage devices currently in use have an unstable connection between the cover and the base, which can easily threaten the reagent tubes during transportation.

[0005] This invention is implemented as follows: a reagent storage container includes a base and a cover plate; two sets of guide rods are fixedly connected to the top surface of the base, with two guide rods in each set; two sets of guide holes are opened on the top surface of the cover plate, with two guide holes in each set; the inner wall of each guide hole is slidably connected to the wall of the corresponding guide rod; both the base and the cover plate are made of metal; a fixing assembly is assembled on the base and the cover plate to fix the cover plate to the base; a limiting assembly is assembled on the base and the cover plate to limit the position of the reagent bottle.

[0006] Preferably, the fixing component includes two inserts fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the cover plate, each insert having a limiting groove on one side.

[0007] Preferably, the fixing component further includes two slots formed on the top surface of the base, wherein the inner wall of each slot is slidably connected to the surface of the corresponding insert.

[0008] Preferably, the fixing assembly further includes: two mounting cavities formed inside the base, each mounting cavity having a slidably connected insert rod on its inner wall, one end of the insert rod extending into the interior of the slot and fixedly connected to a limiting plate, the limiting plate matching the limiting groove, the other end of each insert rod extending into the surface of the base and fixedly connected to a pull ring, and each insert rod having a spring sleeved on its rod wall inside the corresponding mounting cavity.

[0009] Preferably, the limiting component includes: a plurality of first limiting holes formed on the top surface of the base, and an elastic sleeve is fixedly connected to the inner wall of each first limiting hole.

[0010] Preferably, the limiting component further includes: a plurality of second limiting holes formed on the top surface of the cover plate, each second limiting hole being aligned vertically with a corresponding first limiting hole, each second limiting hole having a rubber block fixedly connected to its inner wall, and each rubber block having a cross hole formed on its top surface.

[0011] Preferably, handles are fixedly connected to the opposite side of the base surface.

[0012] Preferably, the top surface of the cover plate is fixedly connected with a plurality of transverse markings, each transverse marking corresponding to the number of transverse second limiting holes, and the top surface of the cover plate is fixedly connected with a plurality of longitudinal markings, each longitudinal marking corresponding to the number of longitudinal second limiting holes.

[0013] Compared with related technologies, the reagent storage device provided by this utility model has the following advantages: 1. This utility model achieves precise positioning when the base and cover plate are connected by setting a guide rod on the base and a corresponding guide hole on the cover plate. Furthermore, the fixed components reinforce the base and cover plate after connection, effectively avoiding the problem of reagent safety caused by misalignment during transportation. At the same time, the addition of limiting components provides auxiliary fixation for reagent bottles placed on the base and cover plate, preventing reagent bottles from falling off or breaking, thereby significantly improving the stability and practicality of the device.

[0014] 2. This utility model uses a metal base and cover plate, taking advantage of the excellent thermal conductivity of metal. After the reagent is heated in a water bath, the entire device can be quickly placed in a refrigerator to achieve rapid and uniform cooling of the reagent to the set storage temperature. In addition, by setting handles on both sides of the base, the device can be easily moved as a whole, further improving the convenience and efficiency of operation. By setting horizontal and vertical markings corresponding to the second limiting hole, the desired reagent can be quickly located when picking up the reagent, improving work efficiency.

It will be explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein can be combined with other embodiments.

[0023] Example 1

[0024] like Figures 1 to 5As shown, the reagent storage device in the first aspect embodiment of this utility model includes a base 1 and a cover plate 4; two sets of guide rods 9 are fixedly connected to the top surface of the base 1, and there are two guide rods 9 in each set; two sets of guide holes 8 are opened on the top surface of the cover plate 4, and there are two guide holes 8 in each set; the inner wall of each guide hole 8 is slidably connected to the rod wall of the corresponding guide rod 9; the base 1 and the cover plate 4 are both made of metal; a fixing component 2 is assembled on the base 1 and the cover plate 4, which is used to fix the cover plate 4 to the base 1; a limiting component 3 is assembled on the base 1 and the cover plate 4, which is used to limit the reagent bottle.

[0025] The technical effects achieved by the above embodiments are as follows: by setting guide rod 9 on base 1 and corresponding guide hole 8 on cover plate 4, precise positioning is achieved when base 1 and cover plate 4 are docked. Furthermore, by setting fixing component 2 to reinforce base 1 and cover plate 4 after docking, the problem of reagent safety being affected by misalignment during transportation is effectively avoided. At the same time, by adding limiting component 3 to assist in fixing reagent bottles placed on base 1 and cover plate 4, the reagent bottles are prevented from falling off or breaking, thereby significantly improving the stability and practicality of the device.

[0026] Example 2

[0027] like Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the reagent storage device includes all the contents of Example 1. In addition, the fixing component 2 includes: two insert blocks 203 fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the cover plate 4, each insert block 203 having a limiting groove 204 on one side; the fixing component 2 also includes: two slots 206 formed on the top surface of the base 1, the inner wall of each slot 206 being slidably connected to the surface of the corresponding insert block 203; the fixing component 2 also includes: two mounting cavities 201 formed inside the base 1, each mounting cavity 201 having an insert rod 205 slidably connected to the inner wall of the mounting cavity 201, one end of the insert rod 205 extending into the interior of the slot 206 and fixedly connected to a limiting plate 209, the limiting plate 209 matching the limiting groove 204; the other end of each insert rod 205 extending into the surface of the base 1 and fixedly connected to a pull ring 207; and each insert rod 205 having a spring 208 sleeved on the rod wall inside the corresponding mounting cavity 201.

[0028] The technical effects achieved by the above embodiments are as follows: Based on the initial precise docking of the base 1 and the cover plate 4 through the guide rod 9 and the guide hole 8, a mechanical fixing component 2 consisting of a plug 203, a slot 206, a plug rod 205, a limiting plate 209, a spring 208, and a pull ring 207 is further integrated: When the cover plate 4 is pressed down, the plug 203 at its bottom slides into the slot 206 on the base 1 and presses the plug rod 205 with the limiting plate 209 back to compress the spring 208; when the limiting groove 204 on the plug 203 is aligned with the limiting plate 209, the spring 208 pushes the plug rod 205 to reset, so that the limiting plate 209 automatically engages in the limiting groove 204, achieving rigid locking between the cover and the base. This structure effectively avoids the shaking or tipping of the reagent bottle caused by component misalignment during transportation; the lock can be released by reversing the operation of the pull ring 207, which significantly improves the reliability, safety, and ease of operation of the device.

[0029] Example 3

[0030] like Figure 2 As shown, the reagent storage device includes all the contents of Example 2. In addition, the limiting component 3 includes: a plurality of first limiting holes 301 opened on the top surface of the base 1, and an elastic sleeve 302 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of each first limiting hole 301. The limiting component 3 also includes: a plurality of second limiting holes 303 opened on the top surface of the cover plate 4, each second limiting hole 303 being vertically aligned with the corresponding first limiting hole 301, and a rubber block 304 being fixedly connected to the inner wall of each second limiting hole 303. A cross hole 305 is opened on the top surface of each rubber block 304.

[0031] The technical effect achieved by the above embodiment is as follows: the composite limiting component 3, which consists of the first limiting hole 301 and the built-in elastic sleeve 302 on the base 1, and the second limiting hole 303 and the built-in rubber block 304 correspondingly provided on the cover plate 4, is as follows: when the reagent bottle is inserted, the bottom of the bottle is first flexibly wrapped and buffered by the elastic sleeve 302 in the first limiting hole 301, and the middle part of the bottle passes through the cross hole 305 opened on the rubber block 304. This structure generates a radial clamping force on the bottle body through the elastic deformation of the rubber, and achieves a stable constraint in the vertical direction. Thus, it effectively suppresses the shaking, tilting or falling off of the reagent bottle when it is transported or subjected to external impact, which greatly improves the overall safety and damage prevention reliability of reagent storage.

[0032] Example 4

[0033] like Figure 1As shown, the reagent storage device includes all the contents of Example 3. In addition, a handle 5 is fixedly connected to the opposite side of the base 1 surface, and a plurality of horizontal markings 6 are fixedly connected to the top surface of the cover plate 4. Each horizontal marking 6 corresponds to the horizontal number of the second limiting holes 303. A plurality of vertical markings 7 are fixedly connected to the top surface of the cover plate 4. Each vertical marking 7 corresponds to the vertical number of the second limiting holes 303.

[0034] The technical effect achieved by the above embodiment is that by setting the transverse marking 6 and the longitudinal marking 7 corresponding to the second limiting hole 303, the desired reagent can be quickly found when taking out the reagent, thus improving work efficiency.
