[0002] Cell culture flask supports are basic auxiliary equipment in cell culture laboratories. Their main function is to provide stable support for cell culture flasks and prevent sample loss and biosafety risks caused by tipping during operation.

[0003] However, most existing culture flask holders require strict sequential steps when researchers need to perform continuous and rapid sample changes. The first culture flask to be operated must be completely fixed in its position before the second culture flask can be unlocked and used. This is not convenient and results in some wasted time. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the aforementioned shortcomings in the existing technology by providing a cell culture flask support.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A cell culture flask support is designed, including a shell and a culture flask placed inside the shell. A support component for supporting the culture flask is installed inside the shell. A fixing component for fixing the culture flask is provided inside the support component. A lifting component for cooperating with the fixing component is installed on the lower side of the support component. A rotating component for driving the support component to rotate is provided on one side of the shell.

[0007] Furthermore, the load-bearing component includes a housing, with rotating shafts fixedly connected to both sides of the housing. The rotating shafts are rotatably connected to the outer shell. Several pipe fittings are fixedly connected inside the housing, and several deformation grooves are formed on the circumferential surface of the pipe fittings.

[0008] Furthermore, the lifting assembly includes a platform fixedly connected to the lower side of the housing, a cavity is provided in the platform, a plate is slidably connected in the cavity, and a spring is fixedly connected between the plate and the cavity.

[0009] Furthermore, the upper end of the platform has several holes penetrating into the cavity, and a connecting rod is slidably connected in the holes. The upper end of the plate has several L-shaped grooves, and the upper end of the L-shaped grooves has a chamfer. The lower end of the connecting rod is fixedly connected to a locking block, which is slidably connected to the chamfer and engages with the L-shaped groove. Only one end of the plate has a chamfer.

[0010] Furthermore, the fixing component includes a sleeve fitted over the outside of the pipe fitting, an inclined block formed on the outer circumferential surface of the pipe fitting, the inner circumferential surface of the sleeve abutting against the inclined block, a rod passing through the housing fixedly connected to the lower end of the sleeve, the lower end of the rod fixedly connected to the connecting rod, and a compression spring fixedly connected between the rod and the platform.

[0011] Furthermore, the rotating assembly includes an extended step fixedly connected to one side of the housing, and a motor is fixedly connected inside the extended step, with the shaft end of the motor fixedly connected to the rotating shaft.

[0012] The cell culture flask support proposed in this utility model has the following advantages: Through the linkage design of the lifting component and the fixing component, the culture flask is automatically locked. During operation, when the first culture flask is put back, its fixing process is automatically completed by the mechanism. At this time, the staff can directly take the second culture flask. This linkage mechanism eliminates the intermediate manual fixing steps and significantly improves the operation efficiency. Attached Figure Description

[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 of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0018] Reference Figure 1-3A cell culture flask support includes a housing 1 and a culture flask placed inside the housing 1. A support component 2 for supporting the culture flask is installed inside the housing 1. A fixing component 3 for fixing the culture flask is provided inside the support component 2. A lifting component 4 for cooperating with the fixing component 3 is installed on the lower side of the support component 2. A rotating component 5 for driving the support component 2 to rotate is provided on one side of the housing 1.

[0019] It should be noted that the bearing component 2 includes a housing 21, and a rotating shaft 22 is fixedly connected to both sides of the housing 21. The rotating shaft 22 is rotatably connected to the outer shell 1. Several pipe fittings 23 are fixedly connected inside the housing 21, and several deformation grooves 24 are opened on the circumferential surface of the pipe fittings 23.

[0020] The housing 21 can be rotated by the pivot 22, and the pipe 23 can be deformed by the deformation groove 24 during use, so that it can be clamped.

[0021] Furthermore, the lifting assembly 4 includes a platform 41 fixedly connected to the lower side of the housing 21, a cavity 42 is provided in the platform 41, a plate 43 is slidably connected in the cavity 42, and a spring 44 is fixedly connected between the plate 43 and the cavity 42.

[0022] The platform 41 has several holes 45 extending into the cavity 42 at its upper end. A connecting rod 46 is slidably connected to each hole 45. The plate 43 has several L-shaped grooves 47 at its upper end. A chamfer 48 is formed at the upper end of each L-shaped groove 47. A locking block 49 is fixedly connected to the lower end of each connecting rod 46. The locking block 49 is slidably connected to the chamfer 48 and engages with the L-shaped grooves 47. Only one end of the plate 43 has a chamfer 48.

[0023] By pressing the connecting rod 46 and moving the locking block 49 downwards, the contact plate 43 moves backwards, and then the locking block 49 is locked into the lower L-shaped groove 47. At the same time, the other locking block 49, which is locked in the L-shaped groove 47, is released. This allows a culture bottle to be released during the placement and replacement of the culture bottle. When it is necessary to tighten all the tubes 23, simply press the connecting rod 46 on one side of the plate 43, which is only provided with a chamfer 48 at the top. The specific structure is similar to the existing electric fan button structure, so it will not be described in detail here.

[0024] In this embodiment, the fixing component 3 includes a sleeve 31 sleeved on the outside of the pipe 23. An inclined block 32 is formed on the outer peripheral surface of the pipe 23. The inner peripheral surface of the sleeve 31 abuts against the inclined block 32. A rod 33 passing through the housing 21 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the sleeve 31. The lower end of the rod 33 is fixedly connected to the connecting rod 46. A compression spring 34 is fixedly connected between the rod 33 and the platform 41.

[0025] When the locking block 49 is released from the L-shaped groove 47, the connecting rod 46 is reset by the compression spring 34, thereby moving the sleeve 31 upward to abut against the tilting block 32, and thus tightening the sleeve 31.

[0026] Based on the above embodiments, the rotating component 5 includes an extended step 51 fixedly connected to one side of the outer shell 1. A motor 52 is fixedly connected inside the extended step 51. The shaft end of the motor 52 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 22. When the shell 21 needs to be rotated, it is only necessary to start the motor 52 to rotate the rotating shaft 22 and thus adjust the angle of the shell 21. The motor 52 is a self-locking motor.

[0027] Working method: When working, press down one connecting rod 46 and then place the culture bottle into the tube 23. Then press down the second connecting rod 46. At this time, the sleeve spring 34 of the connecting rod 46 resets, and then the sleeve 31 rises to press down the tilting block 32, causing the tube 23 to retract and clamp the culture bottle. Then press down in sequence. After the last one is fixed, just press down the connecting rod 46 with only the upper end of the chamfer 48 to fix all the culture bottles.

[0028] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
