Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of test tube cleaning technology, specifically relating to a test tube cleaning device for clinical trials. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, test tube racks are one of the most frequently used medical devices in clinical laboratories. After use, test tubes used in clinical trials are usually sterilized together, which increases the number of test tubes used in the experiment, leading to higher equipment costs and increased workload for medical staff. If test tubes are not cleaned in time, there will be residues on the inner wall that are difficult to remove. Once the volatile solvents evaporate, residues will adhere to the inner wall of the test tubes, making cleaning more difficult.

[0003] Currently, most test tube cleaning methods involve manual cleaning by medical staff, which is inefficient. Some test tube cleaning devices use rotating shafts, which immerse multiple test tubes in water and then use a motor to drive brushes to clean them. However, these devices have the following drawbacks: the water in the cleaning tank needs to be changed several times to ensure thorough cleaning. The first cleaning involves adding cleaning agents, followed by rinsing with clean water, resulting in water waste.

[0004] Chinese patent application number 201921140633.7 discloses a test tube cleaning device for clinical trials, including a cleaning tank. A lifting plate is connected to the top of the cleaning tank via a hydraulic lifter. A drive box is fixedly connected to the bottom of the lifting plate, and a cleaning rod with a hollow structure is rotatably connected to the bottom of the drive box. A mixing tank is connected to the top of the lifting plate, and a fixing plate is connected to the top of the lifting plate via a fixing rod. A water tank and a cleaning agent tank are sequentially connected to the top of the fixing plate. Both the water tank and the cleaning agent tank are connected to the mixing tank via a first pipe. A water pump is connected to the top of the drive box. The input end of the water pump is connected to the mixing tank via a second pipe, and the output end of the water pump is connected to a spray pipe movably connected inside the cleaning rod. A test tube placement plate is connected to the cleaning tank. Although the technical solution provided by this patent can simultaneously rinse multiple test tubes, it cannot clamp and fix test tubes of different diameters, nor can it wipe and clean the inside of the test tubes. Therefore, improvements are needed. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a test tube cleaning device for clinical trials. The technical problem to be solved is that most existing test tube cleaning devices for clinical trials cannot achieve the time required to clean multiple test tubes at the same time, meet the requirements of clamping test tubes of different diameters, and simultaneously wipe and brush the inner wall of the test tubes.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: This utility model provides a test tube cleaning device for clinical trials, including a cleaning table, a lid, a water tank, a rinsing pump, clamping components, and a washing component. The lid is detachably mounted on the top of the cleaning table. The water tank is connected to one side of the cleaning table, and the rinsing pump is electrically connected to the other side of the cleaning table. Multiple clamping components are spaced apart on the cleaning table to clamp the test tubes for clinical trials. The washing component is positioned corresponding to the clamping components and rinses the clamped test tubes.

[0007] By detachably covering the top of the cleaning station with a lid and providing an appropriate number of covers for the corresponding washing components, the fixing cylinders and rings are covered during cleaning. This effectively prevents the cleaning solution from splashing and harmful substances from spilling out of the test tubes during the cleaning process. The test tubes are held in place by clamping components, and the inner walls of the clamped test tubes are scrubbed by the washing components, providing both cleaning effectiveness and efficiency.

[0008] Optionally, each clamping assembly includes a fixed cylinder, a support rod, a fixing ring, and a locking assembly. The fixed cylinder is hollow and fixedly mounted on the top of the cleaning table. At least two support rods are symmetrically fixed to the top of the fixed cylinder. The fixing ring is fixedly mounted on the top of the support rod. The locking assembly is connected and mounted inside the fixing ring to clamp the test tube placed therein. By making the fixed cylinder hollow and fixing it to the top of the cleaning table, the hollow design reduces the weight of the entire clamping assembly without affecting its support capacity for the upper structure. Fixing it to the top of the cleaning table provides a stable mounting base for the entire clamping assembly, ensuring that the entire assembly will not shift or shake during the clamping of the test tube and subsequent cleaning operations, thus guaranteeing operational stability.

[0009] Optionally, the locking assembly includes a locking strip, a latch, an arc-shaped clamp, and a sliding buckle. The latch is disposed on the inner wall of the fixing ring. One end of the locking strip is fixed to the latch, and the other end passes through the latch to form an enclosing structure. Several arc-shaped clamps are spaced apart on the locking strip. The sliding buckle is slidably clamped on the fixing ring, and its inner wall is connected to the end of the locking strip that passes through the latch. By connecting the sliding buckle to the end of the locking strip that passes through the latch on the inner wall, and by allowing the sliding buckle to slide on the fixing ring, the operator can flexibly adjust the size of the locking strip enclosure according to the outer diameter of the test tube. When it is necessary to clamp a thinner test tube, the sliding buckle can be slid away from the latch to reduce the size of the locking strip enclosure; when it is necessary to clamp a thicker test tube, the sliding buckle can be slid closer to the latch to increase the size of the locking strip enclosure, thereby achieving precise clamping of test tubes of different sizes for clinical trials.

[0010] Optionally, the outer wall of the fixing ring is provided with multiple locking holes at intervals, and the outer wall of the sliding buckle is provided with a locking button. The locking button passes through the sliding buckle and is inserted into the locking hole to limit the position of the sliding buckle. By inserting the locking button through the sliding buckle and into the locking hole, the position of the sliding buckle on the fixing ring can be accurately fixed, providing multiple fixable positions for the sliding buckle. The operator can adjust the sliding buckle to a suitable position according to the actual thickness of the test tube to be clamped, and then insert the locking button into the corresponding locking hole to achieve precise positioning and stable clamping of test tubes of different diameters.

[0011] Optionally, the device also includes a rubber clamp, which is disposed inside the fixed cylinder. The rubber clamp has a semi-elliptical structure and an opening at the end for easy insertion of the test tube. By using a rubber clamp, when the test tube is inserted into the fixed cylinder, the rubber clamp can act as a buffer, reducing the hard impact between the test tube and the fixed cylinder and preventing the test tube from breaking due to excessive insertion force.

[0012] Optionally, the washing assembly includes a rinsing pipe and a washing component. The rinsing pipe is set on the washing platform and located on the center line of the fixed cylinder and the fixed ring. The end of the rinsing pipe is provided with several spray holes. By providing several spray holes on the rinsing pipe, the contact area of ​​the rinsing pipe is increased. During the washing process, the rinsing liquid sprayed from the spray holes at the end of the rinsing pipe can act evenly on all parts of the test tube, avoiding the problem of uneven cleaning caused by the deviation of the rinsing position, thereby ensuring that every part of the test tube can be fully rinsed and improving the cleaning effect.

[0013] Optionally, the washing assembly further includes a rubber sleeve and a brush, the rubber sleeve being movably fitted onto the end of the rinsing pipe near the top, and the brush being adhesively attached to the outer circumferential surface of the rubber sleeve.

[0014] Optionally, the inlet of the rinsing pump is connected to the water tank, and the outlet is connected to the rinsing pipe. The cleaning platform is equipped with control buttons electrically connected to each scrubbing component. The separate connection design between the water tank and the rinsing pump facilitates the replacement of the rinsing fluid in the water tank. When it is necessary to change to a different type of rinsing fluid or to clean and maintain the water tank, simply turn off the rinsing pump, drain the old rinsing fluid from the water tank, perform the appropriate treatment, and then refill with new rinsing fluid.

[0015] Optionally, the box cover is provided with a number of matching covers for the washing assembly. The outer periphery of the fixed cylinder at the top of the washing platform is provided with an annular groove. Each cover covers the fixed cylinder and the fixed ring and fits into the annular groove. By setting the cover, water splashing out during rinsing is avoided.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages: 1. The clinical trial test tube cleaning device of this utility model features a detachable lid mounted on top of the cleaning table, with a corresponding number of hoods for the washing components. During cleaning, the fixing cylinders and fixing rings are covered. This effectively prevents splashing of cleaning solution and leakage of harmful substances remaining in the test tubes during the cleaning process. The device uses clamping components to hold the test tubes and washing components to clean the inner walls of the clamped test tubes, providing both cleaning effectiveness and efficiency.

[0017] 2. The clinical trial tube cleaning device of this utility model connects the sliding buckle to the end of the locking strip through the inner wall, and the sliding buckle can slide on the fixing ring, so that the operator can flexibly adjust the size of the locking strip enclosure according to the outer diameter of the test tube. By inserting the locking button through the sliding buckle and then into the locking hole, the position of the sliding buckle on the fixing ring can be accurately fixed, providing multiple fixable positions for the sliding buckle. The operator can adjust the sliding buckle to a suitable size according to the actual thickness of the test tube to be clamped, and then insert the locking button into the corresponding locking hole to achieve precise positioning and stable clamping of test tubes of different diameters.

[0018] 3. The clinical trial tube cleaning device of this utility model has a rubber clamp made of rubber material. When the test tube is inserted into the fixed cylinder, the rubber clamp can play a buffer role and reduce the hard collision between the test tube and the fixed cylinder. By setting several spray holes on the rinsing tube, the contact area of ​​the rinsing tube is increased. During the cleaning process, the rinsing liquid sprayed from the spray hole at the end of the rinsing tube can be evenly applied to all parts of the test tube. Attached Figure Description
