Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of blood sample transport boxes, specifically to a plasma sample transport box with test tube protection function. Background Technology
[0002] Blood sample collection and transport are common procedures in medical and nursing care, and are an important part of sample collection for clinical drug research. Currently, commonly used transport boxes have a partition with an integrated storage tank inside the box. Blood collection tubes containing blood samples are inserted into the storage tank. In order to reduce the shock of the blood collection tubes inside, some transport devices will put a sponge pad in the storage tank for cushioning and shock absorption.
[0003] According to Chinese patent number "CN 115043067 A", a blood sample transport box is disclosed, including a box body, a blood sample storage rack disposed inside the box body, and a box cover hinged to the box body. The box body includes an installation cavity and a functional cavity. The installation cavity is located above the functional cavity and is detachably connected to the blood sample storage rack. The blood sample storage rack includes a base plate connected to the installation cavity, a connecting component disposed above the base plate, and a first frame and a second frame connected to the connecting component and structurally symmetrical. The first frame includes a main board connected to the connecting component, at least two placement areas disposed on the main board, multiple fixing components distributed in the placement areas and having a fixing groove, a first airbag disposed in the fixing groove, and a first miniature vacuum pump connected to the first airbag through an air tube and distributed between the first frame and the second frame. The multiple first airbags are arranged at intervals on the inner wall of the fixing groove. After the first airbags are inflated, the blood collection tubes are fixed in the fixing groove, which not only fixes them but also absorbs shock and buffers them, avoiding the risk of blood samples being bumped and burst.
[0004] The aforementioned transport box for blood sample transfer improves the fixation effect of the test tube sample liquid by setting a first air bladder surrounding the fixing groove and a second air bladder set at the bottom of the groove, solving the problem of easy expansion and detachment between adjacent test tubes in the prior art. However, in actual use, to achieve the above effect, the storage space of test tubes in the transport box needs to be greatly reduced, and the structure is complicated, which reduces the number of tubes carried in the transport box each time. At the same time, the air bladder is a fixed structure, which is not convenient for practical use. Utility Model Content
[0005] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to overcome the problems of existing transport boxes having complex structures, resulting in a limited number of internally stored sampling tubes, and the airbag having a fixed structure, which is inconvenient for practical use.
[0006] The technical solution adopted to solve the above technical problems is:
[0007] A plasma sample transport box with test tube protection function includes a transport box body and a shock-absorbing platform with mesh inside. The shock-absorbing platform has a storage cavity for storing coolant, which is connected to the outside through the mesh. Multiple isolation columns are connected inside the storage cavity, and each isolation column passes through a corresponding mesh and extends to the outside. The outer side wall of each isolation column near the outside is equipped with a matching elastic sleeve, and each is connected to the inside of the storage cavity. Each group of elastic sleeves can form a storage cavity for test tubes. The outer side wall of the shock-absorbing platform is connected to a pressure injection device that communicates with the internal storage cavity. The device controls the coolant in the storage cavity to compress the elastic sleeves and expand them outward, thereby further reinforcing the fixation of the test tubes in the storage cavity.
[0008] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the injection device includes an injection pipe that is connected in a through-flow manner to the storage cavity. The other end of the injection pipe is connected to a sealing cylinder. A movable piston is slidably connected inside the sealing cylinder. The movable piston is pushed along the inside of the sealing cylinder to deliver the coolant inside to the storage cavity for pressurization.
[0009] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the end of the movable piston near the outside is connected to an electric cylinder, and the outer walls of both the sealing cylinder and the electric cylinder are connected to fixed seats, and both fixed seats are fixedly installed at the bottom of the shock-absorbing table.
[0010] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the bottom of the shock absorber is provided with a main control system, which consists of a power supply unit and a control unit, both of which are electrically connected to the electric cylinder. The outer wall of the shock absorber is provided with a charging base that is electrically connected to the power supply unit.
[0011] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the transport box further includes a limiting cover hinged to its top. When closed, the test tube containing the blood sample is pressed against the formed storage cavity. A handle is installed on the top of the limiting cover, and a card seat is installed on the other side of the limiting cover. A matching elastic tongue is provided on one side of the card seat, and the elastic tongue is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the transport box.
[0012] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the outer walls of the plurality of elastic sleeves extend outward in a circumferential direction from bottom to top with anti-slip protrusions, and the outer wall of the transfer box is connected to a liquid injection seat that communicates with the storage cavity, and the liquid injection end of the liquid injection seat is threadedly connected to a sealing plug.
[0013] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the top of the limiting cover is provided with a touch-sensitive latch and is electrically connected to the control unit to control the electric cylinder to extend and retract automatically, and the bottom of the shock-absorbing table is threadedly connected with a maintenance bottom cover.
[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0015] 1. This utility model significantly improves the sample storage density and operational convenience of the transport box by optimizing its internal structure. Specifically, the shock-absorbing platform has a storage cavity with an isolation column and an elastic sleeve. The pressure of the coolant is controlled by an injection device to expand or contract the elastic sleeve, thereby flexibly fixing and releasing the test tubes. This structure eliminates the need for complex fixing components such as traditional airbags, reduces unnecessary space occupation, and allows more test tubes to be accommodated per unit volume, effectively increasing the number of samples transported in a single trip. It is suitable for clinical or research scenarios that require large-scale blood sample transport, thus improving transport efficiency.
[0016] 2. This utility model enhances the stability and shock resistance of test tubes while maintaining structural simplicity and maintainability. The outer wall of the elastic sleeve has anti-slip protrusions, which, combined with the pressing design of the limiting cap, further stabilize the test tube in the closed state, preventing collisions or leaks caused by shaking during transportation. The injection device uses an electric cylinder to drive the piston for liquid injection, and with the main control system and touch switch, one-button operation is achieved, providing rapid response and precise control.
[0017] In addition, the design of the injection seat and the maintenance cover facilitates the replacement of coolant and system maintenance. The overall structure is reasonable and highly reliable, and it has good practicality and promotion value. Attached Figure Description

[0028] Example 1
[0029] exist Figures 1-4This utility model provides a technical solution: a plasma sample transport box with test tube protection function, including a transport box body 1 and a shock-absorbing platform 2 with mesh holes inside for shock absorption of the test tube bottom. The shock-absorbing platform 2 has a storage cavity for storing coolant, which is connected to the outside through the mesh holes. Multiple isolation columns 3 are connected inside the storage cavity, each penetrating the corresponding mesh hole and extending to the outside. Matching elastic sleeves 4 are provided on the outer side walls of the multiple isolation columns 3 near the outside. The elastic sleeves 4 have anti-slip properties and are all connected to the inside of the storage cavity and to the top of the shock-absorbing platform 2. Each pair of adjacent elastic sleeves 4 can form a storage cavity for test tubes. With the help of the isolation column 3, the test tubes in the adjacent storage cavities are prevented from colliding with each other. At the same time, compared with the existing technology, it reduces too many complicated structures, increases the storage capacity of test tubes in the transfer box, and improves the transfer efficiency. Meanwhile, a pressure injection device connected to the inner storage cavity is connected to the outer wall of the shock-absorbing table 2. Compared with the existing technology, by controlling the coolant in the storage cavity to squeeze the elastic sleeves 4 to expand or contract outward, the fixation effect of the test tubes in the storage cavity is further strengthened, or the test tubes in the cavity can be quickly removed in the contracted state, so as to achieve the combined effect of fixation and protection.
[0030] Secondly, anti-slip protrusions extend outward circumferentially from bottom to top on the outer side walls of multiple elastic sleeves 4, further enhancing the fixation effect of the test tube in the storage and emptying cavity. At the same time, an injection seat 10 connected to the storage cavity is connected to the outer side wall of the transfer box 1. The injection end of the injection seat 10 is threaded with a sealing plug. The internal coolant can be replaced by removing the sealing plug.
[0031] In one aspect of this embodiment, the injection device includes an injection pipe 6 that is connected in communication with the storage cavity. The other end of the injection pipe 6 is connected to a sealing cylinder 5. A movable piston 7 is slidably connected inside the sealing cylinder 5. The movable piston 7 is pushed along the inside of the sealing cylinder 5 to deliver the coolant inside to the storage cavity for pressurization. An electric cylinder 8 is connected to one end of the movable piston 7 near the outside. Fixed seats 9 are connected to the outer walls of both the sealing cylinder 5 and the electric cylinder 8. Both fixed seats 9 are fixedly installed at the bottom of the shock-absorbing table 2.
[0032] In one aspect of this embodiment, a main control system 11 is provided at the bottom of the shock absorber 2. The main control system 11 consists of a power supply unit and a control unit, both of which are electrically connected to the electric cylinder 8. A charging base 12 electrically connected to the power supply unit is provided on the outer wall of the shock absorber 2.
[0033] In one aspect of this embodiment, the transport box 1 also includes a limiting cover 13 hinged to its top. When closed, the test tube containing the blood sample is pressed against the formed storage cavity. A handle 17 is installed on the top of the limiting cover 13. A retainer 14 is installed on the retainer 13 and another retainer 14 is installed on the other side. A matching elastic tongue 15 is provided on one side of the retainer 14. The elastic tongue 15 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the transport box 1. It should be noted that the retainer 14 and the elastic tongue 15 are prior art. When used together, the tongue component inside the elastic tongue 15 can be fixed inside the retainer 14 under the action of the spring, so as to realize the quick locking of the limiting cover 13 relative to the transport box 1.
[0034] The top of the limiting cover 13 is equipped with a touch-sensitive latch 16, which is electrically connected to the control unit to control the electric cylinder 8 to extend and retract automatically. The bottom of the shock absorber 2 is threadedly connected to a maintenance bottom cover 18. The electric cylinder 8 is controlled to extend and retract through the touch switch 16 and the control unit, thereby realizing the injection pressure operation in the storage cavity.
[0035] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: When the transfer box 1 is in the loading state, the operator first opens the limiting cover 13. Under the control of the main control system 11, the electric cylinder 8 retracts, the movable piston 7 moves backward along the sealing cylinder 5, the pressure of the coolant in the storage cavity decreases, the elastic sleeve 4 contracts, and the storage cavity between adjacent isolation columns 3 is in a relaxed open state. The user inserts the blood sample tubes one by one into the cavity formed by the elastic sleeve 4. The bottom of the tube falls on the mesh of the shock-absorbing table 2. The isolation column 3 and the elastic sleeve 4 together provide circumferential initial positioning. The limiting cover 13 is closed, the card seat 14 and the elastic tongue 15 are fastened, and the top of the tube is pressed down by the limiting cover 13. The touch-sensitive locking 16 sends a trigger signal, and the main control system 11 drives the electric cylinder 8 to extend, and the movable piston 7 moves towards the front cavity of the sealing cylinder 5. As the coolant is injected into the storage chamber through the injection pipe 6, the pressure rises and the coolant enters the interior of the elastic sleeve 4 through the mesh. The elastic sleeve 4 expands outward and forms a flexible multi-point grip with the test tube wall by relying on the anti-slip protrusions, achieving secondary fixation and circumferential shock absorption. During transportation, the coolant is maintained at a low temperature of 2-8℃. Any bumps and impacts are absorbed by the elastic sleeve 4 and the shock-absorbing platform 2 to prevent the test tube from shaking, colliding, or bursting. After arriving at the destination, press the touch control latch 16 again, the electric cylinder 8 retracts, the elastic sleeve 4 is depressurized and retracts, the limit cover 13 opens, and the test tube can be easily taken out. If the coolant needs to be replaced, simply unscrew the sealing plug of the injection seat 10, draw the old liquid through the injection seat 10 and inject the new liquid. After completion, tighten the sealing plug to continue the cycle.

Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solutions of this utility model without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of this utility model, and all such modifications or substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
